LETTER FROM WINDSOR.

Sunday, April 23.

',it H. HALFORD left the Castle this morning at seven o'clock.
We are happy to have it In our power to state that the health of our
beloved !Monarch continues daily to improve. His Excellency
Count MUNSTER arrived at the Castle at one this day, on a visit
to his 3IAJESTY, and had the honour of an audience. The Rev.
J. H. SEYMOUR performed Divine Service, at the Private Chapel
before the members of his Mariesrw's Suite and Household.

The Chronicle has stated that his MAJESTY'S indisposition
amounted merely to an asthmatic difficulty in breathing, and that
it never was at any time serious. We know that this statement
rests on very high medical authority ; and we have every reason
to believe that there Is no risk of a relapse. The season is in favour
of his MAJESTY'S recovery ; and we hope that in the course of a
very short time we may have the gratification of stating that he has
!Ten enabled to resume his usual habits of exercise.—Spectator.

We are sorry to be obliged to affirm, on good authority, that his
I.L JESTY'S health, according to the latest accounts, is by no means
in a satisfactory state. The hopes which have been entertained, in
consequence of the late bulletins, have not been realized. The best
judges will, we believe, be most ready to allow for the difficulties
of the situation in which his dilmasTy's physicians have been
placed.—Chrenick.
