Their illness prevented ; their attendance, but the Princ* ss. s Au gusta, Victoria, and other manner* el' tin* Royal Family were present. The lull came ull on the evening ui i hursday J.IM* l. To give you some idea of the scene— fancy an immense theatre thrown into j one huge bail room t v h iving the pit il >o?ed over on a h*v»*l v. it.* the stage, tne boxes festooned with vaiiouHy co- , lored drapery, with the collar ot *;:i or der of knighthood blazoned upon each pana^l,—the magnificent armory from the Tower of London hung, at interim's, round the boxes—a pro'ieion efmilitary t Uibit ins, and a glare cd 1 gh* ir< m many chandeliers, triaging ench object out; j:j the stiongest mam er. Nor is this ail: at tin* end of the stage you must sup* j posp a beautiful oich*strn. (containing Vi tipptri’s band of Go musicians,) be hind which were arrayed ancient ban ners, armour, and antique implements ot war (from the Towrr armory) piled in beautifully fantastical forms. !»/ th"in stood four stalwart knights in complete armour, cap a pi^l, with white and pink draperies in the back ground. Immediately opposite the orchestra, j and ir» the very centre of the boxes, was j erected the Royal box, in (lie form of a j Grecian temple. It was lighted within i by three lustres, and. may I add, lighted 1 also bv the sin ties of the Princess \ iccuiiu. ; The two first tiers of boxes wore reserv- : ed tor those w ho had tickets far the bah j room, while the upper tier was appro priated to such as, without spar.he the fancy cos’urm? neeesmry lor toe occasion, wished to wi’ncss ttie guv scene. The draperies which adorned the Theatre were correspondent, i t lueir decorations, with the various orders of British Kmghthod—that is, the Garter, the Hath, tin? i histle, St. Futiicw >, tae Ionian Islands, (St. Michael ami bt. George) mu! the Gee!} h *>t idanovci. Tne Royal box was composed oflive boxes throw n into one. lo this—erected io the form of a Grecian temple sat tne Royal Family and their numerous suite It was ornamented with four Ionic co lumns, round which golden laurels were wreathed, and over which, us an a;**;:,; lost? a large fro; erial crown. The lo wer j partof the temple was festouicd wish, gold fringe and rich crimson velvet 1 ice. In the centre w ere emblazoned the , armorial bearings of Knulamt, arid on | either side waved a royal sian hard ol Spitalfieid’s silk.. These were said to be . the standards which were u-ed in honor j of the King amUVieen, at the opening ! of the new Loudon Hridge. On each side <d the Temple was a oox «**i the accom- j mod at ion ot inemoeiS ot the Loyal Household. The company commenced thronging . in, early as nine »n the evening, and j when the doors opened there was a tush. Hy half past ten o'clock, nearly a l tin?: boxes were filled, as well as tne grand , arena of tiie pit and stage. The com-j iMey included the great majority of the nobiiitv and faobioaabic gcuiry now 1:1 ; Itie metropolis. ; Exactly at 11 o’clock, the !) m<; struck ; up the national antnem, ‘*God -oive the King,” and this give notice of the ap* j proach of the K**yal party. the ihia- > cess A turnra <sister t > th.» King) ounn? in fir-d, followed by the ihi.iccas \ ic o- j Iia.

I he immense assembly received them three hearty cheers. Ti:e 1’rinccss \ ic toria, as lioness Presumptive, appeared . lobe the especial object of notice, and j gracefully returned the salute oi the com-1 pany. When s«hc sat down, tne Prin cess Augusta shook hands with her and affectionately kissed her on the forehead j —tliis little incident was noticed, with pleasure, by the company. Tne Duke! of Cumberland entered tne box soon af- J ter, but attracted no noliec: he is no fa-; vorite with any class. Some of your ladv-readers mnv be anxious—as descendants ot fair and | curious Eve—to ascertain how royalty j was garmented on tliis occasion, i shall briefly endeavor to inform them, re-1 grettina my inability to give a list of all! the varieties of costume, on that evening, j The Princess Victoria was one of tne j plainest dressed ladies in tin* piacc.—In-, deed, she is remarked lor being partial to that same elegant simplicity of attire which distinguished the late Princess j Charlotte, whom she so much resembles j in person and situation—uiay her fait* be j a happier one! IShe wore a while blonoe j dress, over a very rich white satin slip, j ornamented siigntly in the front won j delicate roses, and a bouquet of natural j flowers at the ceinture. tier hair was worn without curls, and confined by a bandeau of brilliants across the forehead Hound the head was a wreath of’‘maiden blush” roses. The Duchess of Kent, who is still a fine looking woman, (a brunette, with dark bair and dark eyes,) is loud of sympiu* otisapparel, ana wore a very magnifi cent dress of white satin, ornamented with silver tissue and rich blonde lappets. She wore aa nniunse qu tntity^ of dia monds. ■ The I Vi. cc.*s Auyu-tr, a tr. other ty 1 o;.J maid <d sixty, auu much addicted t*> | SnufT, wore a 1.1'ess of tdond and v**,,to j satin,with amarunthued notions.
