the P, incess .AUGUSTA And Princess SOPHIA.
Princess AUGUSTA and the Duchess of Gt.ouers-
TER Went to Kew yesterday: her Royal Highness the
Princess AUGUSTA dined afterwards with the Duke
of GLOUCESTER.

Countess L;EVEN had an audience of hii MAJESTY
yesterday, for the purpose of taking leave previous
to going abroad, as did his Excellency Count LIEVEN
on Tue,day, for a similar purpose.

" Almost every day (says a Dublin Paper) the let-
ters of our private friends in and about the Court, corn.
municate some circumstance tending to confirm our
expectations the stronger, of seeing his most gracious
MAJESTY in the metropolis of his Kingdom of Ireland.
A letter from a friend in high situation states, that
his MAJESTY, upon hearing from Mr. FREDERICK
PONSONBY that he had intended setting out for the
Continent, was pleased to express his commands,
that Mr. PONSONBY should relinquish his Conti-
nental excursion, and confider himself as one of his
MAJESTY'S suite, on his intended visit to Ireland:—
His MAJESTY was pleased to add, that his inters.
Lion of proceeding to Ireland had been the subject of
much remark ; and that, let rumour dispose of the
matter as it may, or the Public Journals discuss the
subject as they may think proper, it was his firm
resolution to see Ireland before the termination of
the summer.'"
SOLI ETY OF A nTs.One of the most numerous and
respectable Meetings lately witnessed, took place yes-
terday at Freemasons' Hall, Great Queen-street, for
the' purpose of hearing the Annual Report of this
Society, and witnessing the distribution of honorary
medals to the successful candidates in the seve-
ral branches of the Fine Arts, Manufactures, &c.—
The room was decorated with the productions of the
various Artists, which had a very interesting effect.
Temporary galleries were erected on each side, which,
together with those intended for the music, were
thronged with elegantly dreised females.
A Society for the encouragement of Arts, Manu-
facture:, and Commerce, upon a plan nearly similar
to that in the Adelphi, has been established in Ire-
land, for the Counties of Derry, Donegal, and Tyrone.
Soon after the departure of the Galway mail coach
from the General Post Office, Dublin, on the evening
of the Ztli ult. it was di-covered that a large square
aperture, of sufficient magnitude to admit the mail
bags through, had been made in the bottom of the
boot in which they were deposited, which, there is no
doubt, was made for the purpose of purloining the
mail bags, as the continued motion of the body of
the coach would have shaken them through.
COVENT-GARDEN.—The new Tragedy of D 127110 ft
and Pythias was repeated last night, with, if possible,
increased success. The House was well attended.
lIAYSIARKET THEATRE.—The beauties of the front
of the new Summer Theatre, in the Haymai ket, now
mote than begin to develope themselves. The hand-
some portico, which rises above the windows of the
lobby of the first tier of boxes, is highly creditable to
the classical taste of the Artist ; and the six Corin-
thian columns certainly vie in just proportions with
any work in that line of att.
Lady MOROAN's long-expected Work on Italy, the
result of two years travel, and ten months subsequent
study, will appear in the course of a few days. It
must undoubtedly be considered as the most interest-
ing and important literary production of the present
season.

GEYERAL REDUCTION OX TAX/IL—The necesviry
and expediency of striking off a portion of the NA-
TIONAL DEBT is very ably argued in the pamphleteer,
No. 36, just published—by which it is proved that
the injury to the public Creditor will be very little
felt. The subject is expected to be brought under
consideration during this Session of Parliament. In
!the same No. are published Bowles' Letters to Lord
Byron ; B. Beaumont on the Criminal Code; Coma°
lon Longevity; with several other intire pamphiets.
