THE KING, &c.

WINDSOR, OCT. 11.—This afternoon, shortly after three
o'clock, his MAJESTY left the Royal Lodge in his pony
phaeton, and took a short drive in the Great Park, where the
roads had not,been too much affected by the heavy rain. The
private meeting, which was fixed to take place this day and to.
morrow, at Ascot Heath, is postponed until Friday and Satur-
day next, the incessant rain which fell yesterday and this morn-
ing having rendered the course quite dangerous to the safety of
the horses and riders. The postponement was not known on
the ground until one o'clock, at which time there were a great
deal of company on the course. We noticed Lord F. Conyng-
ham, Lord G. Rentinck, Sir A. Barnard, Sir W. Scott, and
many distinguished Noblemen. •
