event, and their devotedness to his Royal Highness's

person.

Answer
" With the most sensible emotion I thank the
*stumbled States of the Kingdom of Hanover, for
the sentiments of confidence and warm attachment,
which they have expressed for my person in their
congratulatory Address of the Slst of last month.—
It will ever be my earnest endeavour to answer, as
far as possible, to these sentiments.
" I am fully sensible of. the weight of the exalted
duties which will in future be incumbent on me, and
I freely confi:ss that the extent of them might have
deterred me from the acceptance of my important
and honourable offi•Ee, had not the ardent wish to be
u useful as possible to the hereditary States of my
family, and the intimate persuasion that 1 should be
powerfully supported, as well by the States of the
Kingdom, as by the other Public Authorities, in my
etroiti for the general good, encouraged me to
comply wi'h the wishes of my beloved Brother the
Prince itegent.
" The idea of labouring for the good of the coun-
try, which has ever been the object of my warmest'
regard, will make every surrender of time and labour
e.:sy, and in this conviction I look with eager expec-
tation for the day which will lead me back to the
people *I%() are now confided to my peculiar care,
and whose prosperity will• be henceforward my first
thought, and my sole study. (Signed)

HAPABURGH, DECEMBER 2.
The regular post boat from Starburg arrived and
departed again to-day for the first time. A number
of pilots have also gone down to Cuxhaven to fetch
up the ships lying there, so that if the wind remains
ai favourable as at preient, and the ice on the Upper
Elbe does not break up at once, we may expect the
ships up to-morrow. With the mild weather the
herrings have also returned, and many fishermen have
taken large quantities. The n avigation of the Upper
Elbe is still impeded.
