ILLUMINATIONS IN HONOUR OF THE KING'S

BIRTH-DAY.

The houses of his Majesty's Tradesmen, and the
Theatres and Hotels, wete•last night most generally
illuminated ; and among►t the most splendid were the
followine
Tux Knia's Tisaaaar, HarstAziarr—A large transparency
covered the front of the Theatre, and the coup d'ail much delighted
the.thousands that promenaded the streets to view the illuminations.
Dauer•i.anz THEATRE—A magnificent Crown and G. R. IV.
Covaatr•GAlbls TuEATaa—G. it. IV.
EMILIO! Oraaa—G. H. _ _ _

ROYAL GARDENS, Vauxnatx— A brilliant Crown, with G. R
IV. supported by highly embellished laurel leaves, and a variety o '1
appropriate devices, all exceedingly grand.

CLUJ' HOUSES.

Brookes's—A brilliant •arlecated Imperial Crown and G. IL
Wbite's—G. It. and a Crown.

.. _.....
Boodle's•—A bulging Crown and G. R. IV.
Crockford's—This was a most tasteful and brilliant exhibition.
No expense had been spared. In the centre of the budding was an
enormous large Crown. On each side was a wreath of Bowers and
festoons, formed of variegated lamps in an oval loran ; in the centre
of the one was a G. and of the other an R. Underneath on each
side were emblematical designs, representing the Navy and Army
of Great Britain. and the whole was beautifully completed with
festoons in relief. _ _ _ _ _ . _

Guards' Club House—Star, G. R. Star and Crown.
Uai•ersity Club—G. R. and Star, with tastefully designed fes.
ram variegated.
United Service aub—G. R. Crown, vita--a grand display.
Cocoa Tree—Crown and G. R.

The Alfred, Albemarle-street--A large and magnificent bulging
Crown, G. R. altogether most splendid.
Naval Club—This was a beautiful and characteristic device. A
large anchor in variegated lamps, surrounded by laurel.
St. James's-street—was brilliantly illuminated. The Club-
houses, Hotels, and Tradesmen's houses, were lighted up; and the
whole reflected a galaxy of light almost too bright for the human
eye to gaze upon.
- -

In Bond-street, Pall-mall, Charing•eross, the Haymarket, the
Strand, &c. &c. the illuminations were more than usually brilliant :
in short, all the houses of the King's tradesmen were illuminated
with great brilliancy, and nuny of them had an appearance closely
approaching to dazzling splendour. The weather proved unpropi-
tious between nine and ten o'clock ; but notwithstanding the rain,
the Streets were thronged in every direction, and in Piccadilly, St.
James's-street, and Bond-street, the thieves committed many daring
robberies. By eleven o'clock the rain fell so heavily, that most of
the illuminations were partially extinguished, and by midnight the
streets were cleared.

The KING sat in a chair of state, surmounted by a
crown, which was more elevated than the one used
at the Levee. Oa the left of his MAJESTY stood
the Duchess of GLOUCESTER, Prince GEORGE, the
Duchesses of CLARINCIL and KENT, the Dukes of G Lou-
cams and CUMBERLAND, all in their Orders. The
young Prince, who is about ten years of age, was in a
military uniform, and bears a strong likeness to the
Royal Family. He was highly delighted with the''
splendid scene. His &Lunn, it was observed, looked
even in better health than at last Levee, and received
his subjects with his accustomed grace. Notwithstand-
ing the numerous presentations there was no inconve.
nience experienced, nor any great heat, from the excel
lent arrangements adopted by lining off the passages
to the several apartments with iron rods, and only
admitting a certain number at one time. The Ladies'
dresses were of the most costly description, and the dis-
play of jewellery splendid in the extreme. The affabi-
lity of his MAJESTY and the amiable Duchess of GLOU-
CESTER were most striking upon this occasion.
Townsend, with the eye of a hawk, was all bustle at
the entry to the Palace. The multitude of persons in
the Park, to see the company through the windows
passing along the apartments, was immense. There
was a vast concourse in Pall Mall and St. James's-street,
and even the tops of some of the houses were covered.
lOn the whole, such a splendid scene as the British Court
exhibited at this time, for rank, wealth, and amber; is

altogether unrivalled in Europe, and must have forcibly
struck the several foreigners who were present.
Some of the equipages were of an extremely novel
and splendid character. We heard of no accidents,
nor of any offences, except the transfer of divers hand•
kerchiefs, purses, and watches, from the pockets of the
owners to those of the light fingered gentry. A strong
party of the police were in attendance, and preserved
most excellent order.

Sir WILLIAM COMING GORDON, Baronet, appeared in
the dress of a Highland Chieftain.
The Duchess of ST. ALBANS came in a most elegant
state chair, surmounted by a coroner, with two footmen
in front, in gorgeous liveries.
Among the on die: of the day, a matrimonial alliance
is on the tapis between a certain eminent Medical Ba-
ronet and a Dowager Countess of opulence.
The bustle and crowd in the neighbourhood of St.
James's exceeded any thing we ever before witnessed on
a similar occasion. The whole line of Pall-mall and
St. James's-street was filled with a dense crowd of pe-
destrians, and in the immediate vicinity of the Palace,
the eagerness evinced to witness the equipages was so
great, as in some degree to endanger the lives of his
Majesty's loyal subjects.
The Cabinet Ministers ana the peat Officers of State
gave most splendid dinners yesterday in honour of his
11e1AJWITY'a birth-day. The Duke of Wataatioros, as
First Lord of the Treasury, gave a sumptuous dinner to
about thirty; nearly the whole of the guests were Peers,
and among them were ten Dukes and twelve Mar-
guinea. Earl DUDLRY, as Secretary for Foreign Affairs,
entertained all the Foreign Ambassadors and Ministers.
Mr. Secretary Peer. entertained the Judges of the
Court of King's Bench, Common Pleas, and Exchequer,
the Judge of the High Court of Admiralty, the Judge
of the Arches Court, the King's Advocate-General, the
Atorney•General, the Solicitor-General, the L'rd
Mayor; the Sheriffs of London and Middlesex, the Re-
corder of London, and the Under Secrete' its cf State
for the Home Department. The CHANCELLOR of the
EXCHEQUER entertained the Lords of the Treasury and
the Speaker of the House of Commons. The LORD
CHAMBERLAIN entertained the Gentlemen Ushers, and
others in his Department ; the LORD STEWARD gave a
dinner to the members of the Beard of Green Cloth;
the GROOM of the STOLE entertained the Lords and
Grooms in Waiting to the King ; the Duke of LEEDS,
as Master of the Horse, entertained his Majesty's Equer-
ries and Aides-des-Camp at dinner. Other dinners
were also given in celebration of the day. Their Royal
Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Gtoucaaram
had a grand dinner party at Gloucester-House, Park-
lane. The Honourable Corps of Gentlemen•at-Arms
to his Majesty dined together at the Freemasons' Tavern.
One general remark was made yesterday, on occasion
of the Drawing-roam, namely—that there was no dis-
position manifested on the part of the mob that assembled
to commit riot, frolicks, or excess of any kind ; but good
nature, joy, and loyalty were conspicuous; indeed among
all ranks, and on so occasion perhaps, was there less
occasion for the assistance of the military; every ar-
rangement having been under the superintendence of
the civil power.
The procession of the Mail Coaches yesterday evening
through the Metropolis attracted crowds, as usual, to
see the interesting cavalcade. Several of the horses
were beautiful, and of high blood, and seemed proud
of their decorations. The Coachmen and Guards ap-
peared to advantage in their new liveries, each wearing
a handsome bouquet. Many of the horses were superbly
caparisoned, and the procession appeared to great ad-
vantage as it passed up Ludgate-hill, extending from
St. Bride's Passage to St. Paul's.

THURSDAY, APRIL 24, 1828.

STOCK EXCHANGE, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

left off yesterday at 85j for the Account, opened this morning at
85i, and immediately went up to 85f. at present may be quoted
115‘1, with a very Arm market. This improvement is attributed to
there still being great Bears in the House. One Broker alone is
said to be a Bear of ,•800,000 Stock. A Dover letter this morning
states, that a Gentleman has arrived from Calais with dispatches
for Government from Vienna.
