KIAG'S PUBLIC ENTRY INTO DUBLIN.
[FROM THE DUBLIN PAPERS.)
Meta sr, Auu. id.—The King's public entry into
the city of Dublin took place yesterday. It was the
most splendid pageant we have ever witnessed. Flags
were flying and banners and standards were exhibited
in immense numbers, from the a imlows in the line of
the procession, and throughout the city, all bearing
appropgiate neettos aad*emblems. Platforms had been
erected outside the Post-oace, and many private estab-
lishments. The number of beautiful women, in gay
dad fashionable attire, that thronged the balconies,
windows, and temporary erections of all kinds, in the
line of the procession, waving Bags and handkerchiefs
is the procession passed, formed a strikingroop
it was, in truth, a joyous seine, and could not be
viewed but with the most lively sensation of pleasure.
A triumphal arch bad been erected at the
upper end of Sackville-street ; this was •the bar-
rier which marked the boundaries of the city.
In the centre were large folding gates, which
were kept
.sbut ; the arch was entirely covered
with evergreens; a bead of music was placed

itioael-airs, the entire day. On the inner side
the motto, Cad Mille Failtha ; on the

wished to hare passed through at the sane time.
Athlone. on being permitted to enter the Cite,
rode up uncovered to the Lord Mayor, and stated,'
`• that by the command of his Excellency the Lord
Lieutenant of • Ireland, he demanded entrance to
the City of Dublin for his .Majesty King Oeorge
the Fourth."

The Lord Mayor said, that lie and every one of
his Fellow Citizens, most heartily rejoiced. tha their
Gracious Sovereign had- condescended to hong lie
City of Dublin with his presence—that the *es
should be on the instant thrown open, and that he and
the Corporation of Dublin would wait with all humi-
lity, to receive their Gracious Sovereign.
Athlone Pursuivant at Arms, after malting due re-
verence to the Lord Mayor, rode through the Oa'
being still uncovered, and the moment that he again
got within the precincts of the County, he set out at
fell speed, to inform the Procession that it might then I
proceed, which it immediately did. Ihe entry of the
Procession into the City—the sumptuous Carriages—
splendid Liveries, and rich Costume of the several au-
thorities, had a fine effect—all was breathless silence,
until his Majesty's Carriage at a short distance ap-
proaching the barrier. As soon as his Majesty's
Carriage was recognised, the acclamation was instanta•
neons and enthusiastic; it became absolutely deafening:
what his Majesty's feelings were at this moment, those
only who had the good fortune to see the animated glow I
that lighted up his benign countenance--his affectionate
and graceful recognition of the clapping of hands,
waving of hats, hankerchiefs,&c. can only appreciate Ills
Majesty having entered the City Gate, was met by the
Lord Mayor, Aldermen, Sheriffs,Common Council, and
the two City Representatives, all uncovered, who im-
mediately approached the Royal Carriage, and made
their obeisance kneeling: his Majesty immediately
commanded them to rise, and at the same time stood
up himself in the rarria ,e, and addressing the Lord
Mayor in the must giations manner, expressed the
happiness he felt on entering his grand and loyal City
of Dublin. Tile Recorder, who was attired in his
scarlet robes, hereupon stepped up close to the door of
hie Majesty's carriage, and addressed his Majesty, on
behalf of the City of Dublin.

[We have not room to copy the whole of this deleeta-
Me speech, but cannot refrain from presenting our
readers with a sample of the style with which his Ma-
jesty is said to hare been much affected at the concha-
-1 sion of the aidress

" History informs ns, that some of your Royal prede-
cessors have visited this country; hut the same autho-
rity► obliges us to add, under untoward circumstances,

and in periods of national agitation and disunion. How
delightfully contrasted the occasion upon which your
Majesty appears amongst us!—ln the person of you,
Royal Sire, we behold the first Monarch who has land-
ed upon our shores, to receive the enthusiastic homage
of the mynas Island, and in the rapture di a NATtors's
welcome, to partake of the happiness he communicates.
" You are sow, Sire, about to elder your ancient and
loyal City of Dublin. The acclamations of assembled
thousands accompany your Majesty's advance—they are
the richest offerings which love and gratitude can make,
for they are the "apotttaneona borate of the heart, and
are sore to be received with a corresponding emotion
by a her Sp eign, whose first ambition has uniformly been
to tel the affections of all his people." A

His Majesty placed his hands on the carriage
so as to lean towards the Recorder ; he teemed most
auaious not to lose one sylfable of the Addrvir and
near the conclusion of it, his Majesty appeared very
sensibly affected. The Lord Mayor, Reconler,tisc. &c.
sow retired to their respective carriages, whit ere
to precede his Majesty into the city ; and this used
a delay of nearly ten minutes, during which time his
Majesty remained near the City Gate, standing up in
his carriage uncovered, and bowing to the multitude
who surrounded him. Some of the lower order, during
this interval, forced their way almost up to the very
door of his Majesty's carriage—shouting out, "Gosl
bless you, God bless you—lreland loves you ;" his Ma.
jest, promptly and emphatically replied, " and I love
Ireland."—His Majesty now held up his hat, in which,
instead of the usual military cockade, appeared a large
shamrock; his Majesty placed his hand in the met
signibant manner, waving his bolo order that the
satinet emblem should be see all atoned MIL

l'he eirestawero Hied with military, mid the centre.
open which the Procession moved, had been new-gravel-
led esti, in the morning for the oocasion. The weather
was as suspicions as could be wished ; and the eondnct
of the persons assembled was most exemplary.

Sir B. Bloomfield was dressed in uniform, and pre-
ceded his Majesty on horseback. He was recognised by
his countrymen as he passed forward, and was warndy
greeted. •

The equipage of the Lord Mayor was splendid, and
did honour to the Corporation. We are sorry n e can-
not say as much of the Common Council, several of
whose veltieles with their equipment, were better suit-
ed to Donnybrook Fair than to the solemn and import-
ant ceremony in which they bore a part. We under-
stand that his Majesty created the Lord Mayor, a baronet
of the United Kingdom, when his Lordship attended to
present the Address of the Corporation.
His Majesty's carrier was surrounded by a very
large number of General officers, on horseback, in splen-
did uniforms, many of them decorated with a profusion
of orders.

At the close of the ceremony, the weavers, in a body,
went down Nassau-street, and repeatedly cheered at the
house of Mr. Archibald Hamilton Bowan.
The City was most brilliantly illuminated in the
evening.
On presenting the City Address yesterday, the Lord
Diarist knelt, and had the honour of kissing his Ma-
jesty's hand. As he was rising, the King► said, " nal
yet, my Lord Mayor," and holding out his hand for
the Lord Mayor to kiss a second time, said, " now
rise, Sir Abraham Bradley King, Baronet of the
United Kingdom." Thus has his Majesty conferred
a peculiar honour on the City of Dublin, by creating
, its Chief Magistrate a Baronet from the Throne.
This day his Majesty reviewed the entire garrison
of this City, including live Regiments of Dragoons
Ills Majesty ease on the ground precisely at a quarter
past twelve, snewounded by the most brilliant Stall
ever seen in Ireland.

We ha►•e the following anecdote of his Majesty on
good authority. It affords a strong proof of his Ma-
jesty's wisdom, as welt as his love for Ireland :—Baron
Fogel, the Ambassador of the Netherlands, on visiting
his Majesty at the Lodge, wore an orange sash. Hi•
Majesty put his hand on the Baron's shoulder, and said,
" Fagel, you most not wear that sash—on my account
do not wear it. It may do in Holland, but in this
country it will not do by any means."

The funeral of Richard Honey did not take place
on Sunday, as we yesterday stated on the authority 01
a morning paper. Ilis corpse was removed from the
Lord Townsend public house, as was also that of
Oeorge Francis from the Workhouse, and the remains
of both are now in the care of their respective families.
It is contemplated, we learn from an ail►•ertisement, to
convene a meeting this evening of those trades which
presented addresses to her late Majesty, to consider
of the propriety of attending in a body the remains of
these unfortunate men to their graves.

WOOPIDIO ON TeCROAT IN 1110C-PAnc—Besides
the persons wounded, whom we stated were in St.
Ottirges Houpital, we and there were several others
whirsiere taheepto similar institutions for relief. At
the bliddleset Hospital we learnt that one man had
been brought with a sabre cut on his head, and one
,woman having her arm torn with a spike.

Tax? PRIACIIIN G.—The practice of Field Preaching
which began in Scotland during tie i e .sec trios of
the Presbyterians in the reign of Charles ii., and
which is the subject of frequent reference in the poems
of Robert Burns, and the novels ascribed to Sir IValter
Scott, is still retained in some ',Arts of that country
when the congregation is unusually large on certain
religious oceaeions. The preacher then addresses his
audience from a pulpit fashioned like a sentry-box ;
sad this rostrum, though of wood, is called a tent. In
the neighbourhood of our metropolis, however, sit im-
provement in field preaching has been introduced,
which at this season is peculiarly accommo-
dating to the audience as well as the preacher. Last
Sunday forenoon, in the way from Waterloo-bridge to
the Obelisk, the passengers were surprised with real
and literal Tent Preaching. On the side of Waterloo-
road an immense marquee, made apparently for the
purpoergrras spread out to such an extent as seemed
to shelter a congregation of a hundred persons as well
as their thundering orator. It does not appear that
this style of accommodation is confined to any parti-
cular class of hearers ; but if floating chapels are found
to he attractive to sailors, this marquee cannot fail to
be equally inviting to all the Church mifiraar on
earth.

Aug. U.—The Suspension Pier at
was opened on Tuesday. To witness this
large party of gentlemen were invited,
iitely received by Colonel Crigliton, Mr.
Mon, Mr. Stevenson, and other proprie.
indertaking. Among the company assent-
, Lord Prevost and Magistrates, Admiral
DA Sir George Mackenzie, Principal
_

Branton, Professor Jameson, Professor
Leslie, Professor Wallace. and a number of gentlemen,
who met at Trinity Hotel, and walked in procession
aloeg the pier, and there embarked on board one of the
Company's swam packets, in order to have a proper
view of the structure from the water, and to experience
the asaveniesee and and accommodation it afforded in
easharkinglese. Another steam vessel attended with
mask on board, and both the vessels made a short ex-
meal?. to the Roads, after which the company par-
hooka an elegant cold collation, in • teat erected on
parpose, on the platform at the extremity of the pier.
The pier, which is 71110 feet long, with a depth of seven
feet water at lowest ebb, is a very beaatilnl and de-
glom &tractor,. It was decorated on the occasion with
