THE DUKE OF WELLINGTON.—His Grace
the Duke of WELLINGTON is indefatigable in his attention
to business. lie sleeps on a mattrass on a couch. His
Grace rises at seven o'clock, and breakfasts at eight, and
directly after attends to his official duties; the post letters
arrive soon after nine o'clock, to which lie gives decided
answers, if it be in his power, the substance of the answer
being written at the corner of the letters, for his private
Secretary to reply to. Soon after eleven o'clock, in ge-
neral, the Duke rides on horseback to the Treasury, mostly
on a white horse, which is a favourite with his Grace,
having rode it at the battle of Waterloo. The Duke re-
mains closely engaged in business at the Treasury till about
five o'clock, except when called to attend the KING'S Privy
Councils, Cabinet Councils, &c. The Duke does not take
any food from the time of his early breakfast till his dinner,
a period of nearly twelve hours. During the late indis-
position of the Duke, which confined his Grace to the
house several days, he could not be prevailed on to take any
food in the middle of the day, although advised to do so by
the profession.—Norning Herald,
