BRIGHTON, DEC. 9-8.--Our beloved SOVE-
REIGN, whose health and spirits are improved
since the first hour of his welcome arrival here,
took a walk on the inclosed lawn in the morn-
ing, not a very lengthened one, and afterwards
paid a visit of general inspection to the Palace.
The finished apartments met his warm approval.
They are most skilfully executed, and splendid
in effect ; but the delays, as unpardonable as un-
expected, in their completion, are said to have
called forth expressions of an opposite character.
The Royal mandate is now issued for the Palace
to be got into a state for occupancy, apartments
finished or unfinished, as speedily as possible.—
The Mayor of Cork had. the honour of an audi-
ence of his Majesty this morning. The Loyal
Address, of which he was the bearer, is to find
its way to the Throne in the usual manner,
through the medium of Lord Sidmouth. The
Mayor of Dublin, upon a similar mission, had
the honour of an audience also of his Majesty
this morning.

We are sorry to observe that burglaries are be_
coming frequent in the honest principality of Wales.
