CAIA7ERBURT, NOVEAfBER S.

The DUKES of CLARENCE, accompanied by Miss
Frryz.LAßENce, arrived in this city about noon yester-
day, on his return from the Isle of Thanes, and after
changing horses at the Fountain Inn, coOnned his
route for Lord DARNLEY's seat, at Cobhaii Hall.—
During the short interval of his stay, his Royai High-
ness was visited by Lieutenant-General Ishcotts, Ma-
jor-General HAY, and the Officers of the Staff of this
District, in 1611 Military Costume, as a coMplimen
tart' mark of respect. Earl TEMPLE also passed
through this city yesterday, from Dover, for Cobham
Hall, where a large party of Roble Visit is were as-
sembled to meet his Royal Highness.

TILE KING'S ArALADr.

There is a paragraph in 719 Stamford Chronicle, hi
which the conduct of the King's Physicians is most
vehemently arraigned—and in which they are ac-
cused not merely of treating his MaansTy's afflicting
disorder imprnpeily, but of being the cause of de.
priving the Monarch and the Country of the assist.
ante of Dr. Jour WILLIS, who succeeded on a for-
mer occasion, in happily effecting, his • cure. This
most unjust attack on the character of profess'arnal
men so deservedly high in the public estimation, de-
mands an answer, and we are happy in being able to
give it the most direct refutation.
The public are aware that his MAJESTY bad, after
his recovery in 1804, exacted from every member of
the ROYAL FAMILY the must solemn engagement,
that in the event of a relapse, they should not surer
Dr. LIIN WILLIS to have the care of his person.—
This was the result of that feeling which ahnost ever
rises in the breast of a convalescent in that melan-
choly affliction ; and is by no means prejudicial to,
the medical character of the person against whom it
is expressed. But on the commencement of this last
disorder, the weight of the promise (which we be-
ieve had been sealed with the sanctity of an oath)
pressed so heavily on the QUEEN'S mind, that Dr.
IC cue certainly was not called in. He was, how-
ever, consulted after the Report made to her Ma-
jeers Counsel, in July last ; and again he was called
in about three weeks since with Dr. Moauo and Dr.
&smote,. Upon that occasion, so far from express-
ing the sentiments contained in The Stamford Chro-
aisle, he declared it, as bis opinion, that his MAJESTY'S
recovery was very improbable—that the treatment
of the malady was in every respect unexceptionable,
that he could not advise any change—that his re-
mining in *own could he of no possible utility to
the Royal Sufferer; and he therefore hoped and en-
treated that his attendance might be dispensed with.
We have reason to believe that this is a correct state-
ment of the fact, and therefore this paragraph in
The Stanford Chronicle, must have come to the re-
spectable conductor of that paper without the know-
ledge of Dr. WILLIS.
Indeed, almost all the accounts that have come to
the public eye respecting the state of the lbw's ma-'
lady, have been erroneous. At the period of the
Report made in April last, sanguine hopes were en-1
tertained of his MAJESTY'S ultimate recovery. The
Report of July was much less flattering—and from
that period, so regular and progressive were the un-
toward symptoms, that in the Report of October all
the physicians but one decliered that the recovery was
very improbable—one of them went no farther than
to say it was improbable. Since the period of that
list Report, we have reason to believe, no favourable
,appearance has been observed, and there ie no con-
trariety of opinion among this Physicians.

D3VER, NOVEMBER S.
The privateers to-day paid us an early visit, two
loggers having cline in about anon in pursuit of a
brig, which they forced under the batteries ; the gcnii,
however, having opened on the loggers, they thought
proper to sheer off, and the brig., after being in the
moat immineat danger, cleared the rocks, and went
into the Downs : she hid a jack eying for a pilot,.
. but it blowing extremely hard, and a taunt tremen-
dous sea running, it was not possible for a boat to
get off. The privateers continued laying to under
foresail ind mizen, and jest without the range of shot,
for several hours after. One of the shots thrown from
Townshend battery certainly hit one of the privateers,
being diitinctly seen by some persons who v.-ere looking
at her with glasses.
Siz o'Clock.-IThe privateers have returned, and
just captured a large brig. The sea is so high the
batteries cannot hit them.
