Owing to the shameful neglect of thoso who 'have the issuing of the Bulletins, we did not receive the following, yesterday, in time fur thu early part of cur impression; and, therefore, give it to-day it Windsor Gristle, Nov. 5. " The KING has had a good night, and his MA jESTT has bean rAtli r better the last twenty-four hours, " N. R. REYNOLDS. " HENRY HALFORD. " 11. HAULM. " W. lILDERDEN." This most flattering prospect of convalescence was hailed by the public with the most lively ex pressions of In the course of the afternoon, after the arrival of the Earl of Wieettccses, and other Noblemen and Geed:men from Windsor, we were further gratified by accounts still more fprour. able. We learn, that on Sunday afternoon his Alea env enjoyed three hours of sleep, and that he had sew hours of rest in the night, by , which he was greatly refreshed and strengthen, ed. The death of the Princess AMErIA was. an pounced to him, or rather he anticipated the infor..., motion, fur when Sir HENRY HAerotro entered his chanit•er, and was beginning a conversation leading to the point, his • MAJESTY said to him—" I find by your manner that my poor girl is no more am prepared for the event—she is happy.”—Seve ral hours after 1113 hleaes . rx returned to the sub. ject, inquired if it were not so, and spoke of the paint sulk :legs of his beloved daughter with resigna. Lion and composure. His MAJESTY also recog wiaca Dr. IleyeoLus by the voice. These are all symptoms most promising ; and by the continuance of his quiet through twenty-four hours succes, sively, the Physicians have made the above favour, Able repOrt. Members are crowding to town from all parts of, the country ; and it is expected that by the I.sth Inst. there will be a very full meeting indeed. We understand that Older the present and delicate cir. cumstances, it will nut be attempted to prorove the Parliament. The Physicians will be exemined by all the Privy Council previous to the day to which the two Ileum steed adjourned ; and their geport will be presented to the Lords and Corn row, upon which they may decide to sit either de Ilk in &eta, 4r to have another short - adjournment. A few letters were received yesterday from Ham. burgh, of cw.s to the 27th ult. 'Fifty state that that part of the order of the French Government relating to declaring the quautity of Colonial pro d= in the several shops and warehouses had been complied with by the merchants, but that no pay went of defies thereon hat! been then exacted. Hue , s were entertained in consequence that the periuds of payment would lie extended, and it was the intention of the merchants to petition to that effect. We wish we could encourage these expec. tafions, but the terrible Decrees which we inserted yesterday leave us no room for supposing that the nierchates of ifamburgh will be treated with more tenderness that) those of Fratadurt, and the other places occupied by the troops of France. Not. withstanding the rigorous penalties attached to gratien, vast tiiiin4rs.of liarnburgherS were daily Availing themselves of every opportunity to escape :NM the tyranny and exactions of Boualaare. A Heligoland Mail arrived yesterday, but brought no letters from the Coutirictit. It is said that the packet was tlispatc!teil for the purpose of couvey. jiig to (iovertin:iit an account of the French hav ing occupied the Island of Nov vial:, at the mouth of tti, Elbe. It is sometimes practicable, at low water, to pass from this Island to the main land, IL was reported yesterday that a sloop of war had 1 Arrived froll the coast of Portugal, but had bruught yo intelligLoce. We hplieve the vessel alluded to I was the Eutio frigate, Capt. the Hun. E. ItunNEY, lit Meh l after a long patsagt) rvwc tbe4tit Colonel PAvILLE, late Commander of the French gees d'armes iu Portugal, an& four of his suite, have been brought to this country, prisoners in the Falls. l iris Officer, as we have already . stated, had been appointed by BONAPARTE Governo r of Almeida ; but was prevented from entering on that office, in.consequenee of having beep mode Pri soner by our troops. Ratuburgh Papers to the 25th ult. have been re ceived, but they contain uo intelligence of impor tance. A print° letter from Riga, dated the 611' says, that M. KcatecwitAuscrr, who condemned the Tenerife ships, has been dismissed from his office. This is considered a proof of the Emperor ALEN ANDER'S determination to break with BoNArArtrc. There is another report, however, which, if trne l, would be more decisive of that intention, namely, 'that Count Sletitcaw, 'who since the peace with France has been in 'disgrace, is again received into ,favour. This day arrived lc ter from A nholt, from which we have made some extracts. 'An article, dated Munich, says, that the Chevalier Messy, who. had just arrived from Petersburgh,•repoits a speech made to him by the Emperor 'ALEXANDER, on taking his leave for his departure (rem the Russian Court. The Emperor ALEXANDER cautions the Chevalier from believing the re ports he would hear on his road, respecting a rupture b.twecn Russia and France ; he (ALEX. ANDER) loves NAPOLEON, and the FRENCH EM. PEROR loves him ; and both Russia and Franco are • shielded from all vicissitudes. A LCXA N DER may have made this speech, fur he is simple enough for thef t or any thing else. But if he did make the speech and believes what he said, lie is cruelly deceived, and will the sooner for that meet his ruin. NAPOLEON -loves him ! Why, whom did NAPOLEON ever love ? Has he ever loved, or respected, or in any man. ner felt for his ozen people ?—the people who have placed him on his supereminent elevation ? He never loves, and never forgives. —No humane feeling ever enters his heart, nor and roan passion, but what is selfish ! Ho has noi, • sill not for. give the attempt made by ALEXAN <t to check his power. lie has laid snares aroma( ;tie stupi.l Au. tocrat—soarcs he cannot escape wi beet resources which he has not, combined with a wisdom and foresight which he never knew ! Russia is not shielded from vicissitudes ;nur do s e ILlieve France is! Russia must pay for her GRIMES, ds well as Austria and Prussia. The thun .r. bolt has been stayed; but is not, but by TV iIESP REPENT.% NCE, to be diverted from its ALMIGHTY AUTHOR'S aim ! Poland cries aloud to Marts fur yen. geance, for the steeping of its fields in blood! Austria has, in pall, paid the penalty of her wrongs to Poland ; and Prussia almost wholly paid it. And rsky is Russia to escape ? or, how shall she escape, except through the only path that sinful humanity can escape by ? Let Ar-xxs Kota turn aside from his selfishness, and his dreams of new grandeur, or he will not be shielded from vicis. situdes, but must and mill pass through the bitterest of them—to his ruin! • Whatever are the RUSSIAN EMPEROR'S thoughts ) his.capital does begin to have its terrors. The report of the surrender of Raids chuck diffused joy through Petersburgh,. not be cause of dreams of Russian conquests ; hut because it was hoped that the event would bring Kastitg. SKY'S licgociatiou with the Porte for PEACE, to a favourable issue.—An article, too, dated Stock.' holm, states, that letters from. P,!ersl);:rgh say, a rumour prevails there Lhat a Treaty, offensive and defensive, ii made betamen Russia and the Porte. This is premature, no doubt ; but it is no improbable event. The accounts vary greatly as to the successful side in the war carrying on against Turkey. Both claim victories in the same breath. It would be well, if G. ncrals, at least, would give over the vulgar practice of lying. We believe there is no arrival this day from Pur ugal. • , • • The French General Ditourr, commanding the 9th corps of the army of Spain, s is son of the iden tical Postnias . + r of Varcnnes, and assikted hit fa., then in so -dexterously kinpctling the escape of the unfortunate Louis XVI.

Oss.cs, of the ship Phenix, arrived at Si-, main, reports, that when in the latitude of Lis bon (about the 86th or 27th of'July) he passed a French 74, within trail, under a press of sail. Cap tain OsrLL was so near her, that he says tic could discern her name on the stein. . . On Monday night there was a fail of snow on the Yorkshire High Welds, two inches deep, over th. whole of the country, which, considering that the leaves were yet green, and that sonic fields of corn were yet to be got in, presented a very singu lar appearance of summer and winter in the same moment. An extraordinary instance of cruelty occurred at Compton Bassett last week :—Two farmers of that Oral, had a quarrel about a couple of geese bought by one of the wife of the other, for the purpose of fatting. The husbatid of the st Iler meeting the buyer a few days after, said he should not have the geese at the price agreed for ; the buyer said be m mild have) his bar gain; on which the other swore if he insisted on having them he would pick every feather oat of them, which was literally done, and in that agoni. ;ing,state they were sent to the purchaser, and were seen by many perscus who 4re ready to atte4t the 14fli • r • THE KING.

To the EDITOR of. Tug ST./IT-ES:WAN. Sra,—With reference to a paragraph regarding me in a Sunday Paper, called The Examiner, I feel it el duty to state, that I shall afford the Au. thor an opportunity *of justifying his assertions by an immediate appeal to the laws of my country. In the mean time I shall perhaps be warranted iu stating, that the paragraph alluded to is as falseia point of fact as it is obviously diabolical and cow. art y in spirt; and although it is VERY PAINFUL TO ME to be thus forced to play the egotist, L l venture to assert, without the hazard of refutation, that universally, with regard to me, the words LEGITIMATE CREDITOR and zcatotis Faissrb are synonymous, and that alth 'ugh a Commission was an alternative rendered necessary and desirable by a combination of untoward circutnstances—us reptible of easy and satisfactory explanation; yet my estate is equal to the payment of 455. in the pound ; or in other words, I cannot well fail to enjoy a net surplus of SEVENTY or EIGHTY THOU.
