. . '

Our gracious SovEmote, in the most promising
state of convalescence, it gives us heartfelt pleasure
to observe, continues to make the moss satisfactory
advances to complete recovery. The answer to in-
quiries
at the Palace this morning was—" His MA-
..
atsr*again has had a good night, and is much better
this morning." The answer in the evening has been
an improvement upon that of the morning.
It appeos.to be the intention of the Ks NG to open
the two Houses of Parliament in person ; and not a
doubt, from pre'ent indications, is entertained of his
S'A.usrv's health being entirely re-established before
not period.

THE DUKE OF YORK.

When his Royal Highness the Duke of Yon left
London on Sunday sennight, on a visit to the Earl
of RIIIDGEWATI:R, in Hertfordshire, his Royal High-
ness was then afflicted with a slight cold, which we
regret to say increased during the stay of the Royal
Duke with the Noble Eat], which induced his Royal
Highness to shorten his stay from home, as his Royal
Ilighne3s had originally intended, which was to have
been till this day ; but the Royal Duke finding him-.
self not getting better, determined on returning' to
London ou Monday, for the purpose of receiving the
attention of his own. domestics, and the advice of. his
medical' attendants. Since the return of .his
Highness totown, he has been attended by Sir flEnax.
HALFORD, Mr. M‘Gaecson, and other Medical Geo.:
doom , who deemed it advisable !that, his. Royal
al4
Highness should. not leave his houie, in Come-.
quence notice was given, after the.arriVat in:town of
the Royal Dukei•that his Royal Highneet vats indis•
posed, and would not be able to hold a Levee yester-
day, as was expected. The indisposition nt his Royal
lfighness, we are happy to say, •althougla 'operating'
to confine his Royal Highness to the house; did not
prevent the Royal Duke from attending to piibße
business during yesterday. His Royal Highness:ost
