London, May 29.  Yesterday being the anniversary of his
Majesty's birth, and on which he entered into the 59th year
of his age, was ushered in with ringing of bells; there was
a great concourse of nobility at Kensington to compliment
the young Princesses thereupon; and a ball in the evening,
and every where throughout London and Westminster were
illuminations and all other demonstrations of joy, suitable
to that occasion.
