DUBLIN, Atrourr 14.
Wednesday being the anniversary of his MAJESTY'S
birth, the event was celebrated with mach splendour in the
Phenix Park. In the morning a Lltdon lag was hoisted ea the
Tower at the Castle, and the bells of some of the Churches peeled
merrily daring the day. At ten o'clock eleipages of all Made,
from the dashing ha:ceche and four, down to the bumble jingle,
began to pour into the Park for the purpose of witnessing the
Review. Soon after tee the 17th Lancers, all of the sth Hussars
Dow in Garrison, two troops of the 7th Henan from New-
bridge, the Ist Battalion of the Coldstream Guards, the
324 and 64th Beginning of Foot, sod the Horse end Foot Artil-
lery, arrived upon the Fifteen Acres. The Cavalry looked spin.
didly • their horses were in fine order and high spirits. About
elm.; o'clock his Grace the Lord Lieutenant, attended by his
Aides-de-Camp, rode from the Vice-regal Lodge to the ground.
His Grace wore a General's fed dress uniform, and was mounted
upon a beautiful annul charger. Immediately after his Ex-
cellency followed the Ditches. of Northumberland, in a splendid
barouche and six, pressdsd by &udders and followed by a long
retinue of servants in dean leery. The scene at this moment was
extremely fine. The aumesphine was lofty and bright, and a gentle
breeze dispelled every emptier. The different bands having played
God save the King, the military fell Into lines, and having been
inspected by the Lord Lieutenant, the Comstaader of the Forces,
the Commander of the Garrison, Lord Bingham, Lord Brudenel,
and a number of Field °Seers, the tn.mituvring commenced.
Many of the evolutions were splendid, and the charges were ad-
mit ably executed. The formation of the light companies into a
Ride Battalion contributed much to the effectiveness of the ar.
rangemeuts. The cannonading was kept up spiritedly from twelve
till two o'clock, when the Duke rode of, accompanied by Sir
John Byng, Capt. Doyle, Captain Wellesley, Ike. Ike. Scc. For-
tunately no accident occurred to mar the festive scene.
The review was conducted by Major General Daibiae. and
Lord Lieutenant, previous to his retiring from the field, compli-
mented the General upon the excellent manner It had been
managed. As the different regiment. were quitting the field, a
heavy rain began to fall, and those whom the cannon's roar could
not terrify, a smart shover soon scattered is all directions, and in
half an boar afterwards none were tole seen in the Park but thoie
who received special invitations to the Vier-regal Lodge.
The fete given it the Vice-Regal Lodge, in honour of his Ma-
jesty's birth-day, was upon the must extended scale; nearly SOO
invitations having hero issued to the 'inhabitants of Dublin an i Its
vicinity, Including Atha oldeers of the garrison, and the Akers
of the Royal Yadtt.
.Sixteen marquees, and a still greater number
of smaller tents. internally decorated with Sags, add internally
with garlands and dowers, were pitched between the house and
the road. with the considerate view of affording pleasure to the
public in the path, as spectators. The guests universally complied
