Princef Royal, Princefs Augufts, and Princess Elizabeth, a little before nine o'clock. His Royal Highnels the Prince of Wales, and the Prince of Mecklenburgh, were there a few minutes before them. As foon as the King and Queen had in the accustomed manner taken notice of the company within the circle, the minuets commenced, and were danced in the following order, each gentleman dancing two minuets : His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, with the Princess Royal, and the Princess Augufts. Earl Morton, with the Princess Elizabeth, and Lady Catherine Paulet. Lord Galway, with Lady Caroline Spencer, and Lady Elizabeth Spencer." Hon. Mr. Edgcumbe, with the Countess of Salisbury, and Lady Caroline Waldegrave. Mr. Crauford, with Lady Ifabella Tournour, and Lady Frances Tournour. Eari Morton, with the Hon. Miss Thynne, and the Hon. M. Howe. Lord Gallaway, with the Hon. Mifs Broderick, and the Hon. Mifs C. Fitzroy. Hon. Mr. Edgcumbe, with the Hon. Mifs Townshend, and Mifs Jefferies. Mr. Crauford, with Mifs Gunning, and Mifs Cranmer. Earl Morton, with Mifs Vane, and Mifs Sey mour. His Majefty, according to the ufual etiquette on his own birth day, was dreffed exceedingly plain, in a dark carmelite coat, without either lace or embroidery, and a steel star, knot, and George; the King looked remarkably well, and we rather fufpect that his Majefty has lately changed his taylor. The queen was fplendidly dreffed in a mazarine blue filk, covered with lace, or a gauze fimilar to it, which gave the whole laylock appearance, with a roll of gauze round the petticoat, ornamented with a cord of diamonds; but the brilliancy and fplendour of the jewels that formed her fleeve knots and bouquet beggars all defcription, both in number and effect. The Princess Royal's dress was formed in a most beautiful style; the body was a tiffue of a green caft, the petticoat covered with gauze, ornamented with green and gold leaves, and fingle Oftrích feathers, difpofed in a very fanciful manmer, with a diamond fleeve knots and bouquet. Her Royal Highnets's head drets was ornamented with flowers, feathers, and diamonds, and black Jappets, with a imali piume of black feathers placed on the left fide, which was emblazoned with jewel. The Princefs Augufta, and Princess Eliza beth, were dreffed alike, nearly in the fame manner as the Princefs Royal, excepting the body of their dreffes, the robes being of pink siffue.-The Princesses heads were not dreffed high, but their hair rather wide, with few curls. The Prince of Wales was habited in a fuit of Bole fiik, covered with a filver spangled netting, which gave it the appearance of a pink. It was fuperbly embroidered in the fhape and over the fears, and looked remarkably beautiful and grand. The Prince of Mecklenburgh was in regimentals. Next to the Prince, the luit of the French Ambassador claims notice; it was fomeshing in the tyle of the Prince, but of a light colour, and had a very grand effect. The gen tlemen were in general well dressed; scarce a plain fuit was to be feen; the prevailing colour with them feemed to be a be. Amongst the other visitors, was the Tripoline Ambaffador, who feems to enjoy every opportunity of gratifying his eyes with a fight of British beauty. The foreign minifters were all present, and is general fplendidly dressed. As foon as the minuets were finished, which was at half paft ten, the country dances commenced, but in confequence of the small aur ber of gentlemen who danced minuets (three only hefides the Prince of Wales), the Lord Chamberlain was obliged to recruit, and enlisted two other gentlemen, which made fix coupier. The Prince of Wales, and Princess Royal, Marquis of Carmarthen, and The Princess Augufta; Earl Morton, and Princess Elizabeth; Hon. Mr. Edgcumbe, and Lady Car. Spencers Mr. Crautord, and Lady Eliz. Spencer; Lord Down, and Lady Catharine Paulet. After a few dances their Majefties retired about half past eleven. Among the ladies who claim a priority in dref, we must first notice Lady Salisbury. Her dress was formed of a purple body and pink robe, with trimming of gold gauze and flowers, difperied in fuch a tasteful manner, as to make the whole one of the most completely elegant dreifes we ever faw. The Lady Spencers were beautifully attired in blue, the bodies worked in filver ftripes, with Gilver gauze petticoats, ornamented in feftoons, with deep filver fringe. Lady Catherine Paulet, white stripe filk, neat ly ornamented with white tiffany. The Hon. Mifs Townshend claims a diftinguished rank for neatnefs and elegance; the exhibited the true fimplex munditiis; her dreis was white and very pale pink coat, with flowers of white and pale pink, elegantly and charmingly disposed, with a head drefs of the fame delicate colours, and the mall plume of black, like the Princess Royal, ornamented with diamonds. Mifs Seymour was alfo neat and elegant in her tafte; her drefs was white and zephyr blue, with white feathers in her head, the tops of which were alto zephyr blue. and had together a very pretty appearance. The prevailing colours were pale pink and blue; feveral ladies had their caps made of pink crape, trimmed with black lace and wreaths of white roles. Formerly the ladies trains and petticoats were all made of luteftring, now they confift chiefly of crape and tiffany; they were either beautifully ornamented with wreaths of roles, or filver, tamboured in the form of leaves; their heads in general were very wide, and dressed is curls; their caps were made of crape, with a wreath of flowers, and a large plume of feathen at the left fide. The day concluded with the ufual teftimonials of joy on the addition of a year to the present reign." BIRTH S. ADY Margaret, the wife of William Beck. was fately delivered of a daughter, at the Cafte of La Tour, near Vevay, in Switzerland.-The Lady 1786, Lady of Domestic Intelligence.

Limerick, June 11. ARLY this morning about 250 White Boys affembled at Murroe, they came from Galbally: the High Sheriff endeavoured to reafon with them, but in vain, but on Sir Richard Burgo coming up with a detachment of the Cattle Connel Rangers, they fed A party of the Limerick cavalry, and a detachment of the Limerick Independants, under Col. J. Prendergalt Smyth, joining the Raogers, they purfued the White Boys and took fifteen of them prifoners who they brought safe to Limerick, 26.] The inhabitants of the parish of Fedamore, having entered into refolutions, expreffive of their approbation of the conduct of their clergymen, having felt no grievance from them, and of their abhorrence of the proceedings of the White Boys, thefe deluded people taking umbrage at the proper conduct of these gentlemen, upwards of 2000 of them affembled yefterday, armed with guns, fpades, fhovels, and other weapons, and entered the above parish in a moft tumultuous manner, threatening deBruction to the inhabitants thereof, and on the appearance appearance of the Rev. John Parker, Mr. Thomas Furnell, and a party of the 8th dragoons, they had the audacity to pelt them with ftones, and fire a fhot at one of the dragoons, but they were foon put to flight, and being purfued, 38 of them were apprehended, and committed to our gaol yesterday. In conveying the prifoners to town, fome stones were thrown at the cavalry, who had cocked piftols in their hands; the Chief Magiftrate told the latter they were under his command, and the Confequence of their firing without his orders, by which prudent mealures fome lives were pro bably faved, and the innocent might have fallen victims to their curiofity. Mullingar, June 17. Laft week the Sheriff of the county with the poffe, went for the third time to give poffeffion of the lands of Tiffernan, to the Bishop of Meath, but found the place fo Atrongly defended, that they were forced to return without effecting their purpose. Neary, June 22. This evening there was a very great ftorm of thunder and lightning for two hours, attended with torrents of rain. About half a mile out of town, towards Armagh, the lightning entered the chimney of a fmall houfe where two men and three women were fitting. They were all left infenfible by the fhock, and remained fo till fome neighbours came in. Four of them recovered, but the th, a girl of 21 years of age, was quite dead. No other marks were left on the body than a blackness on the fide of the face and head; the hair burned. The poor girl being in an agony of terror, was on her knees at prayer when the received the stroke, which it is conjectured was unhappily concentrated by an iron hook which happened to be over her head. Two windows in the house were blown out, and a breach made in the wall behind the fire, just beneath the crook, which had, it may be fuppofed, con"ducted a body of the lightning. Part of it paffed along the roof trée, and threw down the top of the gable in its paffing out. The above is a very fingular inftance of morsal effects occafioned by lightning in this country; I when it is confidered how few accidents of this kind happen in Ireland in an age, the fears entertained by fome people feem very groundlels. It is, however, a proper precaution during the continuance of a thunder ftorm, to keep at a diftance from any pieces of metal which may conduct the matter to a point. Cork, June 26. Between four and five hun dred White Boys aflembled at Newport, and tendered oaths to every perion they could poffibly meet. The priest of the parish was in the cha-, pel, and attempted to elcape through a window, but they pursued him, brought him in his veftments into the street, and made him declare that he would take only five fhillings for a marriage, and eighteen pence for a chriftening. July 31 Thursday morning, the 29th ult. after a fatiguing march, a party of the Dunmanway Union, affifted by thirteen dragoons, of the 13th regiment, and fome foot foldiers of the 4th, from Inchigeela, came up with a numerous body of armed White Boys, eighteen hundred at least, near the town of Macroom, whom, after receiving their ie, they entirely routed, killed three, and wounded several.-The party returned the fame evening to Dunmanway, with nine prifoners, and many stand of arms. Too much praife cannot be given to Lieutenant Ormby, of the 4 h, his foldiers and the dragoons, for their boldnels and refolution, in which they were well feconded by the Union. The Dunmanway Union, with the same dra goons, on the night of Thurfday the 2nd ut fell in with another party, of whom they wound. ed three, took thirteen prifoners, nine horses, and three land of arms. Among the prifoners, is their commander, Capt. Right, in whole packet were found useful discoveries. The two Dulleas, for whom a proclamation was iffued, and large rewards offered, are alio taken. The prifoners were brought to Cork, and fafely lodged in gaol. Clonmell, July 1. Thomas Heany was exe cuted according to his fentence, for the mur der of Ambrofe Power, Efq. The above un fortunate delinquent paffed through a variety of adventures from the time of the inhuman murder in which he was an accomplice, and for which he fled the kingdom, till his apprehenfios at Waterford. During the late war he was takes prifoner by the French; on his enlargement and arrival in England he was impressed on board an English fhip of force. After several changes of fituation he was captured by the Spaniards, with whom he remained in confinement a confiderable time, and foon after this fecond liberation he was fhipwrecked, narrowly escaping with life. A gentleman who left Cahir this day, affures me, that there were upwards of 2000 White Boys, or Right Boys, in that town yesterday, wearing the common people about what they were to pay their clergy for marriage, &c. &c. but that they otherwife behaved well; he very further fays, that he walked with them from one end of the town to the other that they came in there in a body at eight o'clock in the morning, and waited on that business till after 12; and that they said they would pay this town a vifit either next Sunday or the Sunday following, for the fame purpose.

He had fed after the murder, and had been in America, but by a providential infatuation, he returned about nine months fince to Waterford, he was known and apprehended. He was the man who broke open Mr. Power's door with a fledge ham mer; and thence called Captain Sledger. 22.] A duel was fought in the Phoenix-park, between two journeymen hair-dreffers, when one of them received a ball in the shoulder. A gentlewoman who was bathing in Irishtown, "being on her return to the city with two chil dien, when the came to the ruins of Ringfende bridge, paffed over with one child, and was re traing to bring over the other, when it is fup pofed he was affected with a dizziness in her head, and tell off a plank, and was fwept away by the current of the ebb tide. The boats which just before had been plying, were now returned, and no perfon was prefent but two gingerbread women, who fcreamed out with fuch vehemence, that they, with fome difficulty, faved the lady; he was a confiderable time before any figns of life appeared.

Same day, Frederick Lambert, charged with having committed a felony in this city, was, tranfmitted from Wexford to the New Gaol.The above unfortunate wretch, the offspring of reputable parents, received fentence of death about two years fince, for robbing Mr. Ham, of Pill-lane, of his watch.
