[London news] June 6. Yesterday being observed as the
anniversary of his Majesty's birth day, who on Sunday
entered into the 32d year of his age, the morning was
ushered in with the ringing of bells; at one o'clock the
park and tower guns fired, and their Majesties received the
compliments of the nobility, foreign ministers, &c. at St.
James's; the evening concluded with fireworks, bonfires, and
other demonstrations of joy throughout the metropolis, and
at night there was a ball at St. James's for the ladies.
