Elie Court.
THE King and Queen arrived at St. James's Palace, from Windsor, about noon on Tuesday. Soon after his arrival, the King gave audi- ences to Marquis Wellesley and Sir Hussey Vivian. In the evening, the Queen attended the performance of the new opera at the King's Theatre.
On Wednesday, the usual Levee was very numerously attended.
Mr. Byng kissed hands, as Comptroller of the Household; and the Earl of Lichfield, as Postmaster-General.
The King's birth-day was celebrated on Thursday. The Queen held a most splendid drawing-room ; the account of which, with the description of the ladies' dresses, fills nine columns of the Post. The King gave a grand dinner, party in the evening ; and all the prin- cipal Officers of State followed his Majesty's example. At night, many of the shops in the main streets were illuminated, as usual.
The King and Queen returned to Windsor yesterday afternoon.
