ducted to the grand room opposite 

 the Thames. 



The queen, and princesses 

 Augusta, Elizabeth, Mary, Sophia, 

 and Charlotte of Wales, arrived 

 about three o'clock from Windsor, 

 escorted by a party of life guards. 

 They were received by the Prince 

 Regent, and the duke and duchess 

 of York, and conducted to the 

 grand drawing-room, where they 

 were formally introduced to the 

 French princes. The duke of 

 York's band was stationed in a 

 marquee, on the lawn adjoining 

 the drawing room ; and on the 

 entrance of the queen, they struck 

 up " God save the King." Soon 

 after four o'clock a most sumptu- 

 ous dinner was served up in the 

 grand dining-room. The duchess 

 d'Angouleme sat between the 

 queen and princess Charlotte of 

 Wales ; her majesty particularly 

 directed her discourse to this in- 

 teresting stranger. 



In July, the celebrated classical 

 scholar, Heyne, died at Gottingen, 

 in the B3rd year of his age. He 

 retained all his literary ardour to 

 the last ; and several persons had 

 letters from him, written both in 

 German and Latin, which were 

 dated the evening before his death.
