delight to the people of this connwy to hear that at a
period when every post brought accounts of foreign iaiiimeise
sisiva iata sobonion, and of thrones rolling in the dust,
the natal family of England were engaged tranquilly
in innocent pursuits of this description; yet it was at the

ought at least not to be made public. The advisers' of the
