THE PARK dAD THE GARDE:a.

Hyde Park, although it did not boast so brilliant a
cavalcade as on the preceding Sunday, was more fully
attended than usual at this late period of the season.
Kensington Gardens seemed to have lost few of its
attractions ; for, at five o'clock, the different walks were
crowded with rank and beauty, and the scene was at
its zenith at six o'clock.

The Fashions were wholly French; but an improvement has
taken place in the dresses, there being less flouncing than usual ;
or, in other words, a simplicity almost bordering on ineakerisin. The,
Cavendish harouche seemed to be all the rage among the Ladies—
the Gwydyr cabriolet among the Gentlemen.

Dispatches were received at the Colonial Office this
day, from Jamaica, dated the 7th of June, at which time the Island
was perfectly tranquil.
Mr. Secretary CANNING gave a grand dinner on Sa-
turday, at Gloucester Lodge, to a distinguished party. Among,t
whom were the Earl and Countess Morley, Lord Hervey, Earl
of Clanticattle, Lord froward de Walden, Lord George Bentiock,
Sir J. Copley, Lady Charlotte Bentinck, Hon. Mr. Howard, Mr.
C. H. Ellie, and Mr. Upton.
The Duke of YORK, attended by a party of Gentle-
men, consisting chiefly of Members of the Government and of Par-
liament ; Lord PALIMILSTON, Mr. HUSKISSUN, Mr. WALLACE, &c.
on Saturday afternoon, went down the river from Whitehall-stairs,
to inspect the progress made in the commencement of the new
London-bridge. They were accommodated with the Merchant
Tailors' Company's barge; a very splendid one, and above the
deck of which there were many flags. Having viewed the works
for the commencement of the bridge the party returned, aad by six
o'clock were re-landed at Whitehall-stairs. Many boats, with pti-
Tate parties in them, sailed alongside the barge.
Yesterday the Duchess of KENT visited PrinceLEoPoto.
The Duchess of GLOUCESTER and Princess Augusta
returned to town on Friday evening from Bushy, the residence of
the Duke and Duchess of Cx.samice.

The Duke and Duchess of NORTHUMBERLAND and
family, accompanied by Sir WATxrit and Lady limtairr
Wirsar and family, left town on Saturday morning, on board the
City of Edinburgh steam-packet, expressly engaged by his Grace, for
Alernouth, Northumberland, within five miles of Alnwick Castle.
Saturday Prince ESTERHAZY, the Austrian Ambas-
sador, who has lately returned from the Continent, and Count
Ulmer+, the Russian Ambassador, transacted business with Mr. Se-
cretary Camaro, at the Foreign Office, Downing-street.
Wednesday, the Tenants and Tradesmen of J. B.
WIT DMAN, Esq. M.P. of Chilham Castle, in commemoration of his
return from India, dined together in a spacious booth erected fur
the purpose in the Park.—Upwards of forty sat down to an ex-
cellent dinner, after which the neighbouring peasantry were regaled
with good strong beer, Sec. The afternoon was spent in great con-
viviality, many excellent songs were sung, with loyal and patriotic
toasts. The whole party left at an early hour, highly gratified with
the harmony and unanimity which prevailed through the day.—

We learn, by a letter from Havre-de-Grace, dated
the 16tk instant, that on Tuesday last, the celebrated Marquis de
la FAYETIT embarked at that place in the American ship Cade:us,
for the United States of America.

Yesterday, the Right Hon. the CHANCELLOR of the
ETCHIQUIII left town, foe the seat of A. VANSITTAILT, Esq. at Shot-
tesbrooke, where Lady &sun Romnsom has been on a visit since
Thursday.
Lady ELLENSOROUGH gave a grand supper at Cam-
bridge House, on Friday evening, after Vauxhall. The Garden
was illuminated, and the Band of the First Life Guards attended
and played during supper.
This being the Anniversary of his MAJESTY'S Coro-
nation, the same was observed with the usual ceremonies of ringing
the bells of the several churches, and the display of the Union Ja:k
on their steeples. The. Royal Standard was hoisted at the Tower,
and the ships in the River, and in the various docks, displayed their
Sags upon the occasion. At one o'clock the Park and To wo. g : 5
were fired.

We mentioned lately that the Duke and Duchess sf
Bumunosust were on a tour in the West of Scotland. On Erid,:y
se'nnlght their Graces and suite returned to Glasgow, from a sho::
excursion down the Firth. The weather then was exceedingly tr.-
favourable, and his Grace did not put to sea for his ultimate Jour-
ney to the Western Islands till Thursday forenoon. On Sunday
nennight, the Duke and Duchess, Sir Gzaaax Noamsv and family,
&c. attended Divine Service in the New Episcopal Chapel, at Glas-
gow. Her Grace, who is in a delicate state of health, and unable
to bear the fatigues of a sea voyage, left that city on Thurnbl
morning, on her return to England.
Previously to the Duke of Bucctsuon quitting Eton
School his Grace pounced (a cant phrase at that se ) the Head
Haste:, Dr. Kegs, with a Bank•note, value ‘27ol.inage have Wl'
dersto xi that £lO, is the usual present on similar occasions; but
where there is a probable rent roU of nearly £200,000 per annum'
when his Grace conies of age, it was worthy of the Noble Duk: to
be thus generous to his preector.
