was received by the Duke of Mormon, and after
having rested a little wbile in the Anti-room. was
conducted by the LORD CHAMBERLAIN to his ROYAL
Hionwns's presence. The interior arrangements of
Carlton House were admirable, and well calculated
to give his Excrt.i.Emor and Suite a proper idea of
the taste of our PRINCE. In the room next to the
Throne the Foreign Ministers were assembled.—
When his EXCELLENCY entered the room, his ROYAL
Hummitss was standing under the Caropyi of the
Throne, with Lord CASTLEREAGH on his right hand,
and the' other Ministers and Nobles of the Court
surrounding -him in a groups. The approach of the
AmnAssAnost to the Throne was quite after the
Eastern style of etiquette. On his approaching the
person of the REGRET, his ROYAL HIGHNESS &-
evaded from the step of the Throne, and advancing
two or three paces, received him with that dignity
and affability of manner for which be is so eminently
distinguished. The AMBASSADOR then, in very good
English, made a most appropriate speech, which was
answered by the Panics REGENT in terms calculated
to gain his confidence Ind admiration.
After much conversation, in which the Mums-
Lawn astonished his Royal Highness and every one
present, at the fluency with which he spoke our lan-
guage,, the Panics Rainur and his Excellency went
into the next apartment, where the presents were laid
out ; they consisted of—
A Gold Enamelled Looking Glass, opening with a Portrait of
his Persian Majesty; the object of which was to exhibit, at one
view, the portraiu of two Sovereigns ; the one in painting, the
idler by reflection ; and around which were poetical allusions ;
a Gold Enamelled Boa; a Sword, celebrates!. is Persia for the
exquhdte temper of its blade; a String of Pearls; Carpets of
Cashmere Shawl, composed of four distinct pieces; the principal
Carpet is in iength 17 Persian yards, breadth nine yards. They
were manufactured for the King of the Afghans, who sent them
sia present to the Shah, and who, without hesitation, sent them
as the greasiest rarity he possessed, to the PLIOCI RielOrr.
Persia they are inestimable, such a specimen of manufacture
being awe hitherto unknown ; two Carpets of Herat; a large
Painting of his Persian Majesty ; ten magnilicent Cashmere
Shawls, of swim's sixes and denominations.
Alb:This Royal Highness had examired the various
presents, be re-conducted the Ambassador to the
Hall of Audience, where his Excellency took his
leave, highly gratified with the kindness of his Royal
Highness, and the dignity and affability of his man-
ners. His Excellency returned in the same order of
procession in which he went. The crowd collected,
notwithstanding the rain, was immense, and the whole
cortege was extremely splendid, and highly calculated
to make a proper impression on the minds of those
who are accustozne44 at the Court of their own So-
vereign, to see daily displays of magnificence.
