The grand entertainment given by the PITINCE
Poo', nn Tuesday, was cf a eovel and splendid de-,
' Arription. The garden, and grotittJa .tttached to
learleturt-honse are as rdaral as if the six): wasso miles
horn the mew pol:s ; and the atrangemew.s made in
them, rendered the scene one of the most enchanting
her beheld. At the top of the lawn was a large mar-
! quee for the QI:XEN :end Royal Family. Over the
entrance was the French baton and belt ; also the
French flag of the 2d battalion of the 100th regiment,
whereon was inscribed, Napoleon the First.: Over
rthese were placed a pair of colours of the Guards,
which h4vs Corunna, Maida, and the names of other
places where the Guatds have distinguishel them-
selves. At the bottom of the lawn was a large tent,
in which was Paine's Waltz-band. A number vt.
round, octagon, and Captains' tents %etre pitched in
different parts, in which all sorts of refreshments wet e
served up.

who had already arrived at Carlton-house, entering
Ihe gardens. The heat of the sun was so intense on
the platform in:ended for dancing, that the company
did not begin that amusement till half past 5 o'clock,
,when between thirty and forty cenple stood up, and
the first dance was led up by the Princess Malay and
Earl PERCY, to the tune of" Mrs. 11.,Leod, of Eyre."

#e Duke of DEvoNstints:.
The QUEEN and Patxcr:ssEfi, after partaking of
;tipper, left Carlton-house soon after three o'clock, fur
the Queen's Palace.

ILLOslNArross.—The streets of the Metropolis last
night displayed, for the third time, a. resplendent
!Blaze of liv,ht.—The Bank, India-house, Mansion-
house, and Public Offices, were equally splvuti'd as
on the preceding night, as wire t ••• private honses in
kencral. At the West.end of_ 11. e town the public

edifices and the hornet of the Minister:. exhibited an
appearance limilar to th,,st of the preceding night.
Carlton-house had again six brass two-pounders on
he ti p of the colonade, at equal tlistances, which
,ere o-roasionally fired. Over the centre arch were
the. words " Wellington and Victory," in small lamps,
and on the top five pyrami.ls were erected, richly or-
arnented with variegated lamps, which added much
o the beauty and grandeur of the whole. Apsley-
ouse, the residence of the Hero's brother, exhibited
a transparency of the Marquis of. Wctaamrosr, en-
circled by a frame work, composed of variegated
lamps, and the whole was most tastefully arranged.
'The house of the Marchioness of WELLINGTON, in
;Earley-street, again presented an inscription, " 4 To the
Amur Companions of Willinvott." The Spanish, Por-
!tuguese and RussianAmbassadorswere very splendid.
The Pridcess CHARLOTTE of WALES, attended by
la Lady of her Housesold, was out in her carriage
:on Meicday and Tuesday evenings, to view the illu-
Iminations.

At the Imperial Hotel, in Great Suffolk-street, a
Gentleman who was somewhat deranged in mind,
looking out of his room window, and seeing the illu.
sminations, conceived the idea of having one for him.
self. He throws up the sashes of both windowsrand
pops into bed, and sets the bed-curtains on fire in
several places, which blazed up-all about him. The
heat being more than he could long endure, be
jumped up, and called out aloud, "Come and see
my illumination !" Fortunately some of the waiters
entered time enough to preserve the house from being
burnt, but not till the bed furniture, and all the hed--
Idink,with several other articles, were destroyed. ''he
fnnfiirtunate man was, however, prevented from doing
arther mischief.
