THE KING.

WINDSOR, JULY B.—lt is expected his MAJESTY will
visit the Castle this afternoon, attended by Mr. WYATT,
for the purpo,,e of inspecting the alterations. It is also
expected that his MAJESTY will leave the Royal Lodge
in the Great I).lrk, to-morrow, to make a short tray to
London.
The improvements at the Castle are begun. It appears that
Mr. Wyatt's plan is confined to the improvement of the Castle oni;
and that hie. Nash has formed a plan for the exterior improve-
ments, which will not be acted on until those of the Castle are
completed. An opening has been made in the Castle wzll,
adjoining the Devil's Tower, opposite the Round Tower, for tl'e
ingress and egress of the men who will be employed in clearing Cu:
the fosse of that part of the Round Tower fronting the Castle
square, which was filled up several years since, on a level with
the square, by his late Majesty's order. The square, wh.cis
is on a rise from the entrance on the south side up to the State
apartments of the Castle on the north, is to be lowered so as to ra-
der it level. The statue of Charles the Second, which stands its
the centre of the square, is to be removed near to the Itound
Tower. A new clock is to be placed where the old one stands,
over the grantlentrafice into the State apartments. The east wi
of the Castle, where his Majesty resides, together with the south
wing, are to be unroofed and gutted. The whole of the apartments
in the above two wings, being ancient and incommodious, will b!
modernised, and raised a story higher; a grand covered colonnade,
sufficiently wide for two carriages to pass abreast, will be erected
iound the square in the interior of the Castle. The apartments for
the Ministers of State, in the south wing, will be separate, each cum-
mantling a private entrance. The grand entrance into the Castle,
will be in direct line with the Long Walk, and that of the entrance
into the State Apartments, from which there will be a command-
ing view of the Long Walk to the top of Snow Hill.
