WINDSOR, APRIL 28.

•
This morning the Prince of SAIE COBOURO walked
from the Upper Lodge to the Castle, to attend Di.
vine Service in the Private Chapel, with the Royal
Family. After Divine Service the Prince of SAXE*
Colima° accompanied the QUEEN and Princesses to
the Princess ELIZABETH'S cottage, called Clity.hall.
The Princess Cunatorrn of WALas followed imme-
diately after in an open carriage. The Royal Party
then partook of a superb entertainment given by the
Princess ELIZABETH.

Ybsterday Divine Service was performed. at Carl-
ton-House, before the Royal Household, by the
Rev. Mr. BLOMBERG.

Yesterday the Dukes of Yonx and CUMBERLAND,
and a long list of Peers, and other persons of dis-
tinction, attended Divine Service at the Chapel Royal,
St. Jameb's Palace.
The PRINCE-REGIINT had a dinner party.on Friday
at Carlion-House. • •

. • •The Royal Kitchen in Sh James's Palace has been
opened within these fen, days to cook forshe•PetNcE
of Saxe-Comma% during his stay at Clarence-House.
GORMANDIZING I;—On Saturday se'nnight, a sailor,
• named George Jones; of Yarmouth, undertook, at
• South Shields, to eat forty eggs within an hour,
whiclrhe accomplished in three-quarters of an hour ;
twenty-five were duck•eggs. After this lie said he
was not satisfied, and ate one pound of mutton-chops,
two penny rolls, and drank a gallon of ale, within
the time given the weight of the eggs, without the
shells, was bib. three-quarters.
SHooTING.—At the monthly meeting of the A chro-
trometarian Rifle Society, yesterday, at Chalk FarM,
ttsere was at admirable display of skill, and the eon:
tention for the Medal was truly spirited. Towards
the close it was for some time norti .and neck between
Messrs. Sztricut and FORMAN ; We latter however was
the winner ; he put in thirteen slats out of eighteen,
and three bull's eyes, at the three several distances
of: 150, 200, and 250 yards. As half the shots
were fired from the shoulder, the target small, and
the.bull's eye only a nine-inch one, this performance
may fairly rank with the best specimens of ball-firing.
. PRO/IMAM—Yesterday all the admirers of dress
and gaiety crowded to Hyde Park, which displayed
a numerous and brilliant assemblage of fashion. The
promenade presented so suany.elegant females, that
the spectator was lost in admiration of the various
objects which caught his eye. Although the spring
fashions are not yet fixed, we obseried many new
and tasteful dresses) which may be considered a
sample of the elegance we shall find more abundantly
exhibited in the ensuing month. The prevailing hats
were of yellow suaw, with straw-colour ribbons,
plumes and flowers worn in large bunches. - White
satin hats, with roses and clustering May blossom,
are also in great favour. The pelisses are green, lilac,
and celestial blur, with three flounces rising in paral-
lel lines, about ten inches from the bottom, of point
lace.—An immense cavalcade of elegant equipages
blocked up the drive ; and at five o'clock forty car-
riages, occupied by ladies of distinction, remained
outside the gate in Piccadilly, unable to enter the
Park. Though the day was cloudy at intervals, it
was not unfavourable to the promenaders, who cer-
tainly made this a most interesting spring meeting.
Among the distinguished company we observed—
The Prineese Esterhazy, Duke of Gloucester, the Duke and
Duchess of Beaufort and the Ladles Somenet, the Duchess of
Montrose and the Ladies Gra/tail, the Earl and Coolness of
Jersey, the Marquis and Marchioness of Worcester, the Marchio-
ness of Camden and the Ladies Prate, Marchioness of Salisbury,
Marquis and Marchioness of Blandford, Duke and Duchess of
