That the old KING was- highly be loved, and held a deep seat in the affections of his People, was strongly manifested by the general anaiet) hich yreVaiied, respecting his MAJESTY'S heahh, during the last week of his life—an anxiety teccleted dcubl) torturing from the unnecessary con cealment and mystet y that was maintained on so in teresting a subject : nor does the present appearance of the capital take from the impression then pro duced. It is true, that in the course of nature the event could not, for some time past, be considered as very distant ; but the departure of an aged parent, and that a deservedly beloved ono, cannot but excite the most poignant feelings, at whatever period it may take place—and such is the general state of public feeling at this moment ; heightened not a' little by the great and general anxiety that pervades all ranks, in consequence of the severe, and, as was feared, dangerous malady with which his successor has been visited. We are happy to announce, that his MAJESTY '! was last night declared by his Physicians to be "in all respects much better." • During the whole of yesterday Pall-mall - was thronged with anxious I ' inquirers, who flocked thither from all parts of the metropolis in numberless c2rriages and ,on foot, in most tender and becoming solicitude, and to whom the gates cf the Palace were very properly th?own open, that all inquiries might duly and promptly be answered,. The Royal Dukes and Prince LzoPoto were present during the greater part of the The Medical Gentlemen called in to attend his MA.. JUTY are unremitting in their attention. Yesterday evening,. they issued the following Bulletin: a Carlton Palace, February 3, mo, (Half-past Nine o'clock, P. M.) e, The KING is in all respects much better. " HENRY HALFORD, " WILLIAM 101IGHTON, 1 , MATTHEW JOHN TIERNEY." The following is the Bulletin issues at twelve otclock this forenoon : " The KING slept only at short intervals in the early part of the night, but his MAJESTY had three hours of uninterrupted sleep this morning. His MA- JszrY's disorder is proceeding in its usual course, and in all respects in a favourable manner. A Flanders Mail arrived last night, from the Pa- 1 pers brought by which we have given extracts is another part.

Besides his noble gift of 100,000 florins, his Majesty has repaired in person to several of the places most in distress. On the 25th he went to Guelders, whence the most alarming news had been received. On the 27th he returned to the Hague, and immediately set out again for Leyden, accompanied by the Prince of Orange and Prince Frederick. All the accounts of the disasters caused by the inundations and the bursting of dikes, are of the most afflicting nature. In the Bet&we, seventy-two villages are under water. In many places entire houses, and their inhabitants, have been swept away. VIENNA, JANUARY 17. We have received accounts from Hungary, which agree in announcing the approaching convocation of the Diet of that Kingdom. It is said, that one of the first wishes which will be officially expressed to the .Emperor, is relative to a uniform system of Commerce between all the hereditary States of the Monarchy. The general opinion is decidedly in favour of the abolition of the internaktolls S4ch separate Hungary and its dependenciei from 'the German and Italian States of the Monarchy, to the great prejudice of the industry and real interests of the several Provinces, which are considered as ett tirely unconnected with each other. The Hungarians have complained for these twenty . years of a predilection manifested, to their prejudice in favour of Austria, properly so* calla If their complaints had formerly any foundation, • this is not the case at present, and . the general and acknow ledged tendency of the Government is to make them cease entirely. This will be evident when the new Hungarian Diet meets. We have received this morning, Jamaica Courants to the 25th of December. A Message having been sent to his Grace the Go yen:or, acquainting him that the business of the Session was concluded, he commanded the attend ance of the whole House, and, after giving his assent to 19 Bills, addressed them as follows: " Mr. Speaker, •nd Gentlemen 2fthe Assembly, " I feel a great interest in the peace and happi ness• of this Island; and I have witnessed, with in finite satisfaction, the harmony with which the inte rest of this Session has concluded: to promote that harmony will ever be the constant'object of my ad ministration. Ido now, in his Majesty's name, pro rogue the General Assembly, until Tuesday, the 18th of next month." The amount of public debt of JarnaiCa to be pro vided for in the ensuing year, is f.:B7B;lti*.

It is particularly stated, that Lord COCRIIANR has instructions to search all British as well as American vessels, either of war or merchantmen, for the pur pose of discovering and seizing Spanish property; anti it is added that his Lordship intends executing hivorders with great rigidness towards the Americins. . We learn that the' inhabitants of Panama are very anxious to encourage the trade with Jamaica, and openly express their surprise that some protection 'is not granted them. They say, that if Government will not spare a vessel of war, the merchants con nected with the Lima trade might easily tit out an armed vessel, to proceed round Cape Horn, and transport their specie from one port to another, until it reached Panama ; or that seamen might be sent to the latter port, to equip a vessel fer the purpose. Accounts, from a respeetable source at Panama, state, that great apprehensions were entertained at that place for the safety of Lima. General SAN MARTIN, of the Independent service,' had landed at Pocoa, about 100 leagues South of Lima, with a force of between nine and ten thousand men, and it was supposed he would march against that city, where there were ready to oppose hirir 1 2500 Europeans and 6500 Militia, all fine men, ina well devoted to the Royal cause. A letter from Savannah, of the soth lkrovembt 2 r, mentions that, of 102 Irishmen who arrived there ip one vessel, last September, nut one now ant vives. The total number of deaths in that City de-1 ring the month of September, was computed at 400. Particulars respecting the unfortimate and de: laded followers of Al , Gztecou:---t , By the Confiance, from Santa Martha, we learn, that 150 men of.the deluded followers that were taken at Rio de la liache, on the defeat of M'Gazcoa, had been or dered by the Viceroy of Santa Fe to be shot, and the, sentence had actually been executed on the 25th of October. We also learn that a conspiracy in favour of the Independents, at Monipo, had been discovered, and that eighty-four of the principal ringleaders had been arrested and sent to Carthagena for trial."
