THE KING, &c.

WINDSOR, NOV. 16.—His MAJESTY has not yet taken
any out-door exercise. The heavy rains which fell on Satur-
day and yunday have, indeed, so materially injured the newly.
formed rides as to render them almost impassable. A very
short duration of fine weather will, however, restore them to
their proper state, as they are furnished with excellent drains;
and it is not at all improbable, that we shall be able to an"
nounce the pleasing fact of his Majesty's resuming his accus.
tomed exercise before his departure for the metropolis.—This
morning, at half after nine o'clock, her Royal Highness the
Princess Augusta left Frogmore for her residence in the stable.
yard, St. James's. Her Royal Highness was accompanied by
Miss Wynyard, her Lady in waiting, and followed by the princi.
pal part of her household. Her Royal highness the Duchess of
Gloucester left Bagshot Lodge this day for London. Bee
Royal Hight- .4s will take up her residence at the apartments
of the Princess Augusta, at St. James's, as Gloucester House
is undergoing a thorough repair.
