arrived, on is visit to Carlton-House, where be
will only remain for a kw 'days, and then take tip
his abode at the British Mnseton, as one of its
chief curiwities. The concoorse of people who
attended at the Tower in order to witness his,
thongh they were not persuitted to sec
,his pertpon, was so great, that it was with some
difficulty that the militaty could pt userve good
order.
