His AIAJeSTT, King GEORGE IV. then made a dechuation of his tenderest affection for his native country, and his determination to do all in MS power to promote the glory and happiness of the Kingdom. His MAJESTY' Seemed deeply affected through out the whole of these important ceremonies. At the conclusion of the Council, the Loan CHANCELLOR proceeded to the House of Lords, and the SPEAKER to the House of Commons, but both Houses adjourned, without doing any busi ness, to this day. The FIRST COURT of his MAJESTY KING GEORGE the FOURTH. Yesterday, at two o'clock, his Majesty XING GEORGE IV. held his first Court as a matter of State necessity Authorities hating ceased on the demise of KING Gannon M.), at Carlton House, now his Majesty's Palace.

A forte of Proclamation was then agreed upon, declaring his present MAJESTY King Geoace IV. Sovereign of the United Kingdom of Great Bri tain, &c., which was signed by all the above sworn in Pi ivy Gonocillors. The following were 81.9 specially summoned for the occasion by Lord StnmouTft, as Secretary of State for the Home Department, to whom his Lordship read the Pro ',•laulation as agreed upon by the Privy Council, rdien they also Rddrd their signatures to it, viz.: The Earl of Besburough ; Sir R.

HOUSE OF LORDS, SUNDAY, JAN. 30. In consequence of the melancholy and much de. plored event of his Majesty's demise, a meetiug took place under the relevant provisions of the Acts of William 111. and Anne, though the House stoi,d regularly adjourned till the 17th of next month. The hour of sitting had been appointed for two (eclat It. mid several Peers Attended ; but ►he LORD CHANCELLOR being detained at a Council held on special and highly important affairs, did not come down to the House till twenty minutes after tour o'clock. A number of Peers were present, all in Court or trill wrourniug ; and after Prayers were read, the strangers were admitted. A tew moments of general silence flyer/Ailed, when a Paper was pre stored to the Noble Lord on the Woolsack, by the De - puty Cle►k of the Parliament. His Lord ship immediately put the question of Adjournment until three o'clock to-morrow, n bleb was ordered accordingly. tacked by a slight species of diarrhoea, which, however, after some days, yielded to anodyne and astringent medicines, and all apprehensions with respect to it ceased. In the commencement of the present month, the following Bulletin was published, and was meant probably to prepare the public mind for a change in the health of the Sovkreign : - - A I S IN AS rt,E, 71 6 His Ma}est*OnieArlit_6 o lt ati 6 nsibtslate at;on. His Majesty's by it health has partaken of souse of the infirmities of age, bat has been generally good during the last month.'' This official notice, however, was very far from producing the impression of immediate danger ; and indeed, compared with the reports that had previously obtained circulation, tended rather to induce the belief of a reinstatement. All the intelligence we have been able to collect, from .oral information and all other sources, leads us to the conviction that it was not till several days had elapsed from the publication of the Bulletin, that his late Majesty's symptoms became a source of peculiar anxiety and solici tude to his Medical Attendants. At that period his disorder returned with greater violence, and, in despite of tile utmost skill of his Physicians, se veral of whom remained in constant attendance, continued front day to day to make visible inroads on the health and strength of the Royal Patient. To the inhabitants of Windsor, who bad oppor tunities of observing the increased vigilance that pervaded all time movements about the Castle, the suspicion soon infused itself that an unfavourable change had taken place in the health of his Majesty. The Lords in Waiting, who were Lord St. Helen's and Lord Henley, were noticed to remain longer at their posts and to quit their charge fur shooter periods than usual. His ►Majesty, in the early access of his second attack, rejected animal food. The most nourishing diet, in every form that could be devised to tempt his appetite, was pre pared for him, but seemed to fail in its purpose of sustaining or recruiting exhausted nature. A few days before his deaths he becattie reduced almost to a skeleton. The general decay to which his constitution was now s uoj•cted showed its e lf . in the usual symptoms. It was evident that his blood was becoming torpid and chilly ; for though artificial means were used to . raise the temperature of his apartments, yet he con tinued to manifest increasing suffering from cold. Among other distressing proofs of his debility and approiching dissolution, lie lost his remaining teeth : he also lost his appetite, which .had been previously so hearty, that it had been usual to medicate his food in order to pro cure digestion and prevent any injury from the tendency to excessive indulgence. It was not, however, till within two days of his decease that he kept his bed entirely, though for several days past lie had not risen at his accustomed early hour. On the night of Friday last time symptoms became so alarming that Sir Henry Halford came express to town very early on Saturday morning, and had an immediate audience of the Duke of York. The consequence was, that his Royal Highness's carriage was immediately ordered, and without a moment's, delay he set forward with post horses for Windsor Castle. His Royal Highness ap peared agitated as he got into the coach ; and there was an air of mystery and hurry in the whole affair, which gave but too much reason to antici pate the distressing nature of Sir Henry Halford's communication. At 10 o'clock on- Saturday morning, the Medical Attendants, and the Lords in IVaiting, felt assured that the last hour of the venerable sufferer was approaching, and that the day must terminate his mortal career. As time evening advanced, his Majesty became gradually weaker and weaker, but apparently without the slightest pain,• till nature was quite exhausted.; and, at thirty-five minutes past eight o'clock, he breathed his last, without snffering even a struggle. The decay, though rapid, was unac companied with any violent and sudden changes ; so that none of that physical excitement had occurred which sometimes, in cases of mental derangement, restores to sufferers in the last mo ments a transient use of their understanding, and embitters the parting hour with a consciousness of their late dreadful situation. Our venerable Sovereign was spared this last pang : there wor t s no ro u t oimmg visit of his reason, ►vhich could only have served to torture him with a sense of what he had lost, RS well as what he was about to lose. It is true that, from this insensibility, he could not have time melancholy satisfaction of ►witness ing, by his death-bed, the affectionate duty of the Duke of York ; but theu lie was saved from the . _ anguish of n►issing the aged Partner of his Throne, his beloved Grandchild, and that estimable Prince whose manly virtues so neatly resembled his own. At the moment of his dissolution, there were present, besides the usual attendants, his Royal Highness the Duke of York (who hung over his pillow with the most affectionate solicitude), Lord Henley, Lord Winchilsea, all the Phy sicians, and General Taylor. In the Palace were the Duchess of Gloucester, the Princesses Augusta and Sophia, and some reports add the Duchess of York. Immediately after the decease, the Duke of York retired and dispatched General Cartwright with the mournful and im portant intelligence to the Prince Regent. His Royal Highness did not himself leave the Castle till yesterday morning. The Duchess of Glou- (ester proceeded to Bagsbot about half All hour after the death of her Royal Parent 3 her Sisters remained behind. Doctors Baillie, Eltherden, and IVillis, were yesterday at the Castle, but we could not learn whether they are likely to prepare and issue any detailed statement respecting the death of their Royal Patient. Though all the Physicians were present at the dissolution of the King, yet up to Friday those only were in atten dance on whom that dirty devolved in regular ro tation, if we except the occasional jemmies, dur ing the last week, made to and fro by Sir H. Hal ford, for the purpose, as was supposed, of cononuni eating authentic information to the Prince Regent. Up to a late hour last might, no orders bad been received at Windsor respecting the ceremony of embalming the body of our late Sovereign.— His late Majesty is said to have expressed a strong dislike of that offensive pray ice but perhaps it may not he thought right to deviate from a cus tom so long esrablishsd. Of the preNioni stare of his Majesty as little i 3 know n as ut the symptoms that preceded his dis_ solutio n . fli s M a j esty ' s taste for music, ti ll •r, very late p er i o d, w h en hi s hearing became itoreebt feet, continued to soothe his vacant hours.

" Those who have been with him at his moraine deco at th e p r i vate c h ape l at Windsor, never forget the fervour of his responses durill the service. This constant sense of religi 4 doubtless contributed to the invariable &owe ° and serenity o f hi s m i n d .

An att en d ant CRITIC in with t h e t idi n gs of the child's death. The King exchanged a 100 with him, signifying he understood his SiOn, and then proccetled with his reading till it was finished.

As his late MAJESTY'S Funeral is to be public' it will require at least a month for prepaemioll' No notice was sent to the Theatres from t" Lord Chamberlain's Office up to a late hour 1 351 night ; but we trust that the same humane con' sideration for the number of families tlependent on the establishments for subsistence, which directed the order on the event of the lameutct l ' death of the Duke of KENT, will limit their c lo' sure to a few days, It may be right for us to add, that it is an er' roneous supposition that all Crown prisoners an d others are entitled to their enlargement as a sitar' ter of course. The well-known disposition of till MAJESTY may induce him to make a wide 8 06 liberal exercise of . his Royal prerogative of mercy; but he will he guided by the advice of his con . 6' dential servants in the selection of objects. Every commission held under the Crown most be revived, and the fees to the Lord Cha n cellor for appending the Great Seal tvill amount to 6 very large sum. A notice has been receiver! at the House Of Commons from the Post-office, that no franks will be permitted to go free, save those of the Speaker. It is doubted whether this regulatio o will be strictly adhered to, as the prcsent Par!la" ment, if it be the wil! of his ATAJBSTY, mqy con:, finite embodied f or s i x mont h s alter the demise 01 the late KING.
