PRINCESS AMELIA.

Every possible precaution is taken at Windsor
to jtreveut the Princess AMELIA being disturbed by
noise, in her long•protracted and distressiog illness.
St. Albitn's, where she is confined, is covered very
thickly with straw, to prevent, if possible, say noise
or disturbance fiont the motion of carriages ; none
are allowed in the street but those belonging to the
KING and QUEEN, nor are any persous on loot
permitted to puss, except upon business : to prevent
which, a purty of soldiers are stationed at each end
oldie street. The WISES visits her Royal Highness
every day about twelve o'clock, and repeats her vi-
sits two or three times a riay. The luso, after
partaking of Ins early dinner soon slier owe
o'clock. goes in his carnage to visit her: it is in ge.
tient übout three o'clock.

Ou Wednesday Hs M 4.llifTY experienced a very
distressing circumstance :—Ou his entering the
house he met a Clergyman. and His Maattorr
knew the object of his visit must have beets to ad-
minister the Sacrament to tier Royal Highness,
whirls sfietted His MAJesTY so much (white Con •
verging with Clergyman) that lie could scarcely
proceed into the house. We understated use Doc-
tors had agreed that morning. that they did not
think her Royal Highness would survive twenty-
}bur hours; mid hart given permission for her to eut
and drink whatever she fancied : her Royal Highness
expressed a wish to have some porter, and she
accordingly had a glass of bottled porter, which
appeared to refresh her very much, atol she had a
gentle sleep afterwards. The flattering hope of
her biting better has, we understand, been occa-
sioned by the appl:cs• inn nt some sp rung poultices to
her feet. from appeared to experience
co.isiterahle relief.—. All her Royal Brothers and
Sisters frequently visit her.
