While the columns of the Post register, with scrupulous fidelity,

the fashionable parties of our nobles by birth, we may be allowed to record a delightful, celebration of a day annually devoted to domestic festivity, by a family possessing in no ordinary degree the nobility of talent. The birth-day of Mrs. HonsLEY (the daughter of Dr. CALLCOTT) was celebrated on Thursday last, by the performance of a selection of vocal music from the composi- tions of her husband. On such an occasion, his professional friends gave their willing assistance; and some of Mr. HoustEy's best glees, duets, and songs were sung by Miss MASSON, Miss H. CAWSE, Messrs. GOULDEN, TERRAIL, KING, HOR NC STLE, HOBBS, ELLIOTT, PHILLIPS, E. TAYLOR, LEETE, and SALE. The only piece not the composition of Mr. HORSLEY, was a beautiful madrigal, written for the occasion, by the Chevalier NEuKomm.
