THE KING.

WINDSOR, SEPT. 13.—His MAJESTY left the Royal
Lodge yesterday afternoon at a little before two o'clock, in his
pony phaeton, accompanied by the Marquis Conyngham, and
drove himself by Cumberland Lodge, and through the new
Plantations to Virginia Water. His Majesty immediately on
his arrival embarked on board his pleasure-boat, and com-
menced fishing, which amusement he continued with consider-
able success (as the lake abounds with a multitude of fish)
until after six o'clock, when his Majesty mounted his phaeton
and drove back to the Lodge to dinner. The weather being
unfavourable, his Majesty is not expected to leave the Royal
Lodge this afternoon. Considerable alterations are about to be
commenced at Cumberland Lodge with regard to its domestic
convenience, which is at present too small for the comfort of his
Majesty's visitants and their attendants, during their sojourn
at the Royal Lodge.

the venerable ruins of Furness Abbey, which are now in a state
of great restoration through the liberal and tasteful care of Lord
George Cavendish, the proprietor.—( Kendal chronicle.)

AlutAcAs is the chief town of Arracan, a pro-
vince of the Burmese empire. It is situated in
lat. 20. 40. N. and long. 93. 5. E.-." This town
and fort," says Symes, " were taken by the Bur-
mans in 1783, after a feeble resistance. They
found a considerable booty, but on [waling was a
higher value placed than an image of Guadma,
(the Guatama of the Ilindoos, a name of Buddha),
made of brass, and highly burnished. The
figure is about 10 feet high, and in the customary-
sitting posture, with the, legs crossed and in-
verted, the left-hand resting on the lap, the right
pendent. This image is believed to be the ori-
ginal resemblance of the Reeshe (saint) taken from
life, and it. is so highly venerated, that pilgrims
have for centuries been accustomed to come from
the remotest countries, where the supremacy of
Gaudma is acknowledged, to pay their devotions
at the feet of his brazen representative. There
were also five images of Raeshyas, the demons of
the Ilindoos, of the same metal, and of gigantic
stature, the guardians of the sanctuary. A sin.
gular piece of ordnance, of most enormous dimen-
sions, was also found, composed of huge bars of
iron, beaten into form. This ponderous cannon
measured 30 feet in length, two and a half in
diameter at the mouth, and 10 inches in the ca-
libre. It was transported by the Birmans to Urn-
merapoora by water, as a military trophy, and
Gaudma, with his infernal guards, were, in like
manner, conveyed to the capital with much pomp
and superstitious parade."

NEWSPAPERS.---it is, perhaps, not generally
understood, that from and after the 10th of next
month, when the act for the regulation of the con-
veyance of newspapers to and from the British
settlements takes place, every paper and printed
list of shipping from the United States of Ame-
rica, and from any place not a British colony,
sent by packets or merchant vessels, and for-
warded through the Post-office, will be subject
to the same rate of postage as a single letter.
The charge of three-halfpence out, and three.
pence home, on newspapers applies only to the
British colonies, and if forwarded by the regular
Post-office packets.

what sudden.
