What first attracts notice in this series of Bulletins,
is the extraordinary silence of them all, except the
first, as to the nature of the disorder. It is in the
first called a " bilious attack," accompanied by an
" embarrassment of breathing." The " bilious at-
tack" certainly could not be severe, or likely to ex-
cite any alarm, seeing that his MAJESTY in the same
bulletin is declared to be " free from fever." A
" bilious attack," therefore, unaccompanied by fever,
could not, we apprehend, cause " embarrassment of
breathing"—a prolonged embarrassment of twelve
days. If the truth were known we have no doubt
it would appear that the embarrassment is caused
by something else. Far be it from us to indulge in
idle speculations on his Majesty's lamented malady.
Our object, by these remarks, was to show that the
Bulletins are anything but satisfactory, and this, we
think, we have done. Their ambiguous phraseo-
logy is calculated to excite suspicion and apprehen-
sion, even if the disorder were of a less dangerous
nature than it really is.

(From the Morning Advertiser.)

It will be seen from the following Bulletin that
his MAJESTY has had a relapse :

HIS MAJESTY'S HEALTH.

JESTY experienced a return of the embarrassment of his

This is a more ample statement than we have yet
received from the KING'S Physicians ; but it is not
yet satisfactory. It would appear from it that his
MAJESTY had continued in the same state, without
either improvement or relapse, for several days, but
what that state was, we are not informed. The
next point of information is, that yesterday morning
his MAJESTY experienced a return of the " em-
barrassment of his breathing,"—a very dangerous
symptom, by the way, to return so frequently—but
from what cause that embarrassment of breathing
arose—whether it was temporary, or of a nature
not to be remoVed—we are not informed. The
public, in fact, is now as much in the dark as at the
first moment of his MAJESTY'S illness, respecting its
cause, with this single exception, that by this time
it must be aware that his MAJESTY, from the issuing
of Bulletins, and the continuance of the illness, must
be very seriously indisposed. We intimated on a
previous occasion the mischief which would result
from a protracted silence on the subject of the KING'S
health, and we again repeat that that silence is both
injurious and harassing—harassing to the feelings of
the community, who are deeply interested in his
MAJESTY'S health, and most injurious to that portion
of it which is engaged in trade. Thousands of
tradesmen are, in fact, on the verge of ruin in eon•
sequence of the uncertainty which prevails ; and
nAhough we should be the last to dictate a departure
from that delicacy which is due to his MAJESTY, yet
we can see no reason why the public should not be
made fully acquainted with his real condition. It has
a right to know what it is; and if it had not there
is every good reason why it should.
