This was succeeded by , " Sir Thomas Gra-
ham, and the Officers engaged in the glorious
battle of Vittoria," with three times three, the Duke
of York's band playing Britons Strike dome. The
health of the non-commissioned officers and privates
was likewise drank with becoming gratitude, for
their eatliteut services.—" The Spanish armies and
the brave Guerillas" was next in order, and the
Spanish Ambassador, seated on the right band of the
Duke of Sussex, in silence drank the heilth of the
Company, bowing most respectfully.—" The Em-
peror Alexander," was received with rapturous
cheers and the Russian Ambassador signified his
gratitude for the honour done to his Royal Master.
—" The King. of Prussia" was drank with much
approbation, as well as " The King of Sweden."—
" The Russian and Prussian Armies," obtained
very distinguished marks of respect and admiration.
—The toasts of " The Prince itegent of Portugal"
and of " The Grand Seignor" followed; the Por-
tugnese and Turkish Ambassadors silently signified
their thanks; the former drank the health of the i
company; but the latter was prohibited from show-
ing this mark of respect by the.rigid tenets of his re-
ligion. The last toast was that of " The Ladies,"
who soon afterwards arrived; to partake of the un-
rivalled festivities.
By thb time the day was clesiag, and lhe lamps
throughout the gardens were lighted—" the numbers
without number" of dazzling sparks are not to be
described. The whole space between-the celonadeal
along the arcades, through the *alike*, and towed
the orchestra, was one blaze of etineseeed spirt-
dour. The night was cloudiest', but none of the
heavenly bodies wipe visible—it seemed as if the
congregftett-stars had descended to do honour to the
'name of Wellington, and to add their fires to the
general glary. The orchestra appeared a building of
solid light, and in the front of it above the boxes,
was raised a boarding, at the top of which was a
blueing tan, in whole centre was fixed the letters
G. P. R. below, on one side, F. 7. and on the other
side S. P. Between these two medallions, and sup-
porting them, was the name of " Wellington," un-
der which was Vittoria. Round the colonades in
vivid light, were to be read the names of all the prin-
cipal cities and towns in the Peninsalallhe scenes of
British glory, and on the same line the names of the
Generals who had achieved the victories. These
were surmounted by wreaths of laurel and by em-
blematical shields. In an interior colonade were in-
scribed, in the same burning character of variegated
light, the titles-of the Spanish Generals who have
fought nobly or fallen in the cause of their country.
Behind the orchestra was a large brilliant transpa- 1
reucy, representing the Serjeant of the 87th Regiment 1
presenting to the Marquis of Wellingtou, who is seated
on horseback, the Baton of Marshal Jourdan, found
upon the field of action. In addition to these magnifi-
cent illuminations, the roofs of the colonades of the
Saloon and of the Rotunda, were all decorated with
' Variegated lamps, disposed in various fantastic shapes,
forming at once a splendid and a tasteful ornament.
The various walks in different pins of the'gardens
were terminated by a dazzling display of light
through a transparency, or by the congregation of
small lamps. One of the avenues was concluded by
a represeetation of. the King seated on horseback,
surrounded by appropriate emblems and branches of
latirel; the vista of another was clOseitby a pyramid
of fire, upcin *which several medallions were hung,
with the letters G. R., G. P. lt., and other devices.
The walks, themselves were also lighted by festoons
of lamps, hung from the trees, and by candelabras,
1
in the Chinese fashion, at various distances, hanging
from the crown of each arch, formed bX the smaller ,
.tights; Thee ornaments produced an effect entirely.'
new end •verr beautiful, Since the light they shed
was of. mambo, •placid kind, formlngas grateful con-.
tract to the overbearing splendour of the rest of the .
gardens. The walk at the bottom of which the fire-
works were discharged was of course completely
dark. These fire-works, we understand, were nu-
der the direction of Colonel Congreve; and were
singularly magnificent stiff striking.' They were dis-.
charged at three intervals, via. at elevee ) twelve,
and one o'clock. It would be idle to attempt to de-
'cribs their wonderful ingenuity or Inconceivable
splqudaur; they surpassed emu, this% that we be-
lieve his ever before been exhibited la this country,
and the precision with which they were discharged
.
seemed miraculous. .

TUR PRINCESS OF WALES.
At twelve o'clock her Royal Highness the Prin..
eels of. Wallet; attended by Col. St. Ledger, Lady
Charlotte Lindsay, and Lady .Glenberrie, enti.red
the Gardens. She was received. by. the Duke of
Gloucester, who showed her .they.decnrations, big
did not introduce her to the dinner-roinns. Her
Royal Highness vas pot at first recognised, but uppn
Its being known that she was present, the workings
`of curiosity were strongly evinced in all quar-
ters, and her 'footsteps were soon impeded by
the immense crowds which flocked around her,
anxious to pay .her the homage of personal
respect, which • was exhibited in the most mark:
ed manner- by every individual whom, chance
or design* placed its' her route. Her Royal High.
ness, by her-general demeanour and courtesy, proved
the sincere pleasure she derived from her very Bat-
tering reception. Having once promenaded round
the Gardens, the Duke of Gloucester took his
leave, and she proeeeded, accompanied only by her
own attendants, to make a second 'deceit, in the
course of which she entered into familiar cOnsersation
with several of her friends, whom she met -in her
walk. At ova D'ciock her Royal Highness tool her
departure, highly pleased at the splendid spectacle
which she had witnessed.

THE DUCRESS OF YORK.
Senn after the departuie of the Princess of Wales,
the Duchess of York was announced, and, attended
by the Duke of Clarence, she pursued a track simi-
lar to that' taken by the Princess.
At ►bout two o'clock, the road from Vauxhall as
far as Marsh-gate, was one solid immovable mats of
coaches, horses,.and servants, and many parties, in all
probability, were prevented from witnessing at all,
this splendid and unrivalled exhibition.
