THEIR MAJESTIES.

(From the Windsor Express of Saturday.)
The Queen, we regret to state, has been indisposed for the
last few days with the prevailing epidemic, which prevented
her Majesty from accompanying the King to the Duchess of
Kent's dinner party, and also to the enter ainment in honour
of the Duchess of Gloucester's birth-day on Thursday. Her
Majesty experienced premonitory symptoms of the complaint
on Monday last, previous to her departure from Windsor, but
a naturally lively and sanguine temperament induced her
Majesty to treat the appearances lightly at the time, conceiving
that they merely indicated an ordinary case of catarrh ; in the
evening of Tuesday the symptoms of influenza became of too
decided a character to be mistaken, and the usual active
mode of treatment was then adopted Yesterday, however, we
are happy to say, she was convalescent, and enabled to take a
carriage airing in the Park ; but her Majesty's health is not
considered as sufficiently re-established to make it prudent to
come to Windsor this evening; the return of the Court has
therefore, heen deferred till Monday in consequence. The
Princess Augusta has also suffered from the same complaint,
but is likewise convalescent. The 'King's health continues
remarkably good.
It is intended to give a series_ of three State Balls at St.
James's in the course of the season. The first takes place
early in the ensuing month, but the cards have not yet been
issued.

In addition to the grand dinners for the Sth and 9th of
May, there are to be two others later in the month,—namely,
the Nulli Secundus and the Guelph. It is understood to have
been the King's wish that, if it could be so arranged, some of
these splendid entertainments should have been given this year
at the Castle, but the notion was abandoned, we believe, from
the Waterloo gallery not being yet completed. There is said to
be no doubt that, next season, these fetes will take place at
Windsor alternately with St James's. . _

Many of the ceilings in the state apartments in the Castle
are found to be in a rotten state, and they are now under repair
