The following are the Bulletins issued during the. • week : " N CASTLE, .Ivt.T 28.—His Majesty is nearly as he was ye..terday." 46 Jur.v Q9.—The King has had several hours' sleep in the course of the night. The symptoms of his Majesty's disorder are much the same." " JULY 30.—The King has passed another good night; in other respects his Majesty remains the same." " JULY 31.—The featurc3 of the King's disorder continue the samd, but his Majesty's health is improved." "AUG. I.—There is no alteration in his Majesty's state since yesterday." " Auo. 2,—Hi♦ Majesty has passed a sleepless night, and ii not quite so well this morning." " ATP:. S.—His Majesty has had some sleep in pit night, and is as well as he was two days ago." The daily record of his 'MAJESTY'S severe and long protracted suffering, is a task most painful—. but the deep interest felt by every subject in the affliction of their venerated Sovereign, imposes on us the repulsive duty of communicating such parti culars as transpire from time to time, on this me. lanclioly topic. The following are extracts from the different Papers of yesterday " His MAJESTY suffered another relapse cm Thurs. day evening, and continued in a state of violent agi• tation throughout the whole night. Expresses were sent to Carlton-house, and yesterday 'morning, at eight o'clock, the PRINCE REGENT, accompanied by the Dukes of YORK and CUMBERLAND, set off to Windsor. We understand they found his MAJESTY under the influence of a paroxysm of the brain, but not With any increased symptom of bodily disease. They returned early in the afternoon." 6' Our last night's accounts from 'Windsor well of • a very desponding kind, His MAJESTY'S men tal paroxys . m increased so considerably in the course of the du., that tuikss some alleviation ihOuld speedily tkkep4te, it ivis feared` by the Faculty that the 0)44 constitution would neve muc k 'gager be ado to- iu4aip. • itgte of.
