delight.
His partiality for the navy was certainly very
great ; and on one occasion in particular, he
seemed to take great pride in it, when the ac-
count of the capture of La Vestale, F,ench fri-

short anecdote iu point— • I
A remaikablecilcumstance took place on the
Esplawade, w bust the royal parry walked there,
on the second of August, when they were met by
three (pokers recently teed, who accosted the
King, saying. :hat a young tt tend of theirs, who
had lately come from Philadelphia, had a strong,
desire to see tne King and its faintly. His Ma-
jesty checolly desired that the young American
should come forward, who was introduced, and
held some conversation with the King, still keep-
ing his hat on, but suddenly pulling it off, he re-
tired to a short distance, and offered up a long.
prayer to God for his Majesty and his House, anti,
thanksgiving for his escape hum the late attempt
.gaittst ruts lite; concluding his devotions with
great fervency iea supplication that the Almighty
him, and continue him long to be the
father of the little island, and the happiness of
his people. The whole scene was Most impres-
sive, and was most strongly felt by the Queen and

Princesses."
This kind coincidence of the Royal feelings
with tile loyal ,curiosity of the Public, was further
manifested in Iso4, w,hilst proceeding in the an-
nual visit to Weymouth.
" Witt, his usintl attention to all, his Majesty
would not quit Windsor until he had taken leave
of all the faithful subjects sotto generally Surround-
ed him at that residence ; accordingly on the
evening if the twenty-t' id of August, accom-
panied by the Queen, Princesses, and two of the
Itoyal Dukes, he made. a point of appearing on the
terrace, which was greatly crowded by numbers
at the nobility. and °the! persons of distinction,
trout amongst whom a select party were invited
to pass the evening at the cas!le.
" The next morning the royal party set off, not
by the usual torte of Bagshol, but through the
finest to visit Sir Wiitiam Pius, at Heekfield
,Heath, where the whole village was in a bustle
in expectation of their at rival, the church bells
merrily ringing, and the peasantry ct ding
the roads in all (Licctions. Atter partaking ot
an early dinner, and examining the horse and
0011116, they proceeded to Andover, iu time
tor supper at the Star and Garter, where the
honest landlord was busily exerting himsclt
for the honour which be was about to receive.
The notice was sudden ; but hts preparations soon
reached the eats of the ;;entry in the vieiuity,
who flocked in througnout the day to witness a
sight so noiel ; and their curiosity was fully gra-
tified by the arrival of the royal party at a quarter
past seven, when the Kittg and his faithful Coll-
sort arrived first in their travelling post•chaise,
which drew up under the gateway. His Majesty
appeared in excellent spirits, handed the Queen
out ot the ealtiage with the greatest gallantry,
cautioning her against the numbenot steps ; and
!hen, wito all the fteedom ot an ordinary tra vsl-
ler, ordered tea immediately, and 'supper to be
ready at nine o'clock, and the carringes a! ten ;
but the hustling landlord was unable strictly to
obey hi:, Sovereign's_ commitods; and like other
