THE KING.
The tulletins of this week represents his MAJES-
TY'S health as remaining in the same state.

It is stated that Dr. John Willis, of Lincolnshire, has been
again called upon to attend his Majesty. It is known that the
King, after his recovery in 1801, exacted a solemn promise from
the Queen, that in case of his ever being visited again by the
same severe allliction, this Gentleman should not be called upon
to prescribe for him. •I'his is to he accounted for from the anti-
prtthtes which often arise in the minds of TY•rsons under the im-
pression of this malady, the beginning of their convaleseence.
They retain the recollection of the constraints laid upon them,
and they are implacable in their eamity. We soy that this often
tap;.ens, but we do not koow, that his 'Majesty's objection to
Dr. Jrihn Willis was so strong, or that it had its origin in any re-
membrance of seve.rity which be had endured. But it .is cer-
tain, that in the beginning of the illness the Queen strenuously
objected to the attendance of this Gentleman ; and even in the
beginning of Augnst, when he was sent for and etyisulted, be
only met the other Physicians at the house of Sir Henry Hal-
ford, and there he delivered his opinion very fzeely on the
course of treatment wh:ch had been reso-ted to by the medical
men, objecting to their practice of bleeding with leeches, of the
use of opiates, and of not having sufficient recourse to lowering
medicines. Now, after a further trial of near 3 months, he is
again resorted to, bat we have not heardpat he is to have the care
of the King's person. Dr. Symonds and Dr. Monro have also,
been consulted. This has probably arisen from the difference of
c2inion stated by the Queen's Council to exist among the Physi-
cians who have.been in att--ndance.

TLe following has heel, pnblishcd as an outline of the Report
of the Queen's Council, on their late periodic examination of
Lis Majt•sty's Physicians, hel4 at Windsor, Saturday, Oct. .5,
1811 :•••44 That the state of his Majesty's health, at the time of
this meeting, is not such as to enable his Majesty to resume the
rers .1 exercise of his Royal Authority; that his Majesty's
bodily health does not appear to he much altered since the date
of our last Rep ,rt ; but that his Maieqy":: mental health does
appear to be considerably worse than it wan at the time of our
last Ri.port. From all the circumstances of tl.e • case, his Ma-
jesty's recovery is rel.resoltrd as very irriprohablz, by all the
Pbysicisus in sttaiiiice upon Lis Majesty, excepting one, who

still thinks it probable; but at the same time, looking to his
Majesty's faculties, the remaining vigour of his constitution aM
bodily health, a few of the medical persons in attendance re.
present that they do not despair, and the majority of the Phy.
sicians that they do not entirely despair of his Majesty's re-
covery."
It is understood to be Dr. Heherden who differs from all the
other Physicians in regard to the prospect of the King's re.
covery.
