Sir Henry Hitlfonl, after attending the consultation of
the Duke of York's physicians on Tuesday, left town on a
visit to the King, at his Royal Lodge, Windsor I'ark. Sir
Henry left the Royal Lodge about ten o'clock this morn-
ing on his return to town, and, together with Mr. P.
M'Ciregor, visited the Duke of York shortly before one
o'clock, soon after which the Royal Duke rode out in
his cabriolet to Kensington and its neighbourhood for up-
wards of an hour.

We are sorry to state that the Countess of Eldon still
continues indisposed at her residen:e in Hamilton-place.
CHs t; X A 31, Atm. B.—There is a very good asaem-
"blagt of visitors at thiattresout spasE to tit thew salu-
brious waters, every morning of an early hour, which is
considered essential to the invalids by their medical at-
tendants. The morning and evening promenais at the
different spas, where arc excellent bands, are very nu-
merously attended, particularly at the Montpelier in the
evenings, where the walks and rooms are brilliaotly
illu-
minated with gas. There are numerous parties, which
are fashionably attended, as well as frequent private balls
at the hotels and boarding houses. This day a *netting of
the Cheltenham Auxiliary Bible Society was held at the
New Rotunda or Pump Room at the Montpelier Spa,
which was gratuitously granted by Mr. Thompson, the
proprietor, at which was a very numerous assemblage of
ladies and gentlemen.
NI It. BEAUM ON T.—The Chronielo isantrudieta a state-
ment in our paper of last week, that the eorrettrondenee be-
tween Mr. Beaumont and Lord Grey was published
" without the consent or knowledge of Sir John Swin-
burne." We are not, however, inclined to retract this as-
sertion. We are assured that a gentleman called Mr.
Beaumont out of the Grand Jury Room, and.said.that lie
had uothorirli from Sir John Swinburne to tel him, that
the publication of the correspondence was made without his
knowledge or consent. —Tyne Mercury.
The very absurd paragraph respecting Mr. Beaumont,
which has lat^ly been copied by so many of our contem-
poraries from the Leeds Merenry,- we observe is contra-
dicted in that paper of last Saturday. "It is due from
us," says the Editor, " to mention that we have the au-
thority of Mr. Beaumont for contradicting the statement
which appeared in this paper of last week, relating to what
was there called the extraordinary cure produced upon
his
mind by the supposed death of Lady Swinburne, no such
event as that referred to having taken place." so petion
can doubt the quarter whence the paragraph alluded to
must have proceeded.—lbid. •
