BRIGfITON, APRIL 16.

:~

The health of our beloved SovxftztoN continues
rood. His MAJESTY yesterday, from about an hour
atter noon, was on her.;eback, until nearly. six o'clock
in the evening. His MAJF.STY was accompanied by
Sir BE CTAMIN BLOOMFIELD, and followed by one
servant only. The route chosen was the Downs west-
ward; the romantic prospect from the Devil's. dyke,
and • its pure and salubrious atmosphere, commonly
obtain for it, with the KING, a decided preference.
Wo have seldom seen his MAJESTY look more cheer-
ful.. and altogether :letter, than on this occasion. The
rest affectionate salutations met him ; the people re-
;oiceti at beholding him ; his presence seemed tZ'
dif-
fuse one universal feeling of gladness. His MAJESTY
had returned to the Palace but a few minutes, wheo
the Duke of YORK arrived, with whom he took din-
ner. much refreshed by his exercise, and with an ex-
cellent appetite. In the evening, the Earl and Conn.
of Mexsionottont, the Earl and Countess of WAR-
vac!, and a select party of Nobility, joined the Royal
mite, when music became the leading feature of the
entertainment.
Divine Service was performed this morning at the
Palace, in the presence of his MAJESTY, the Com-
mANDER-IN"-Cille11, and Royal suite, by the Deputy
Clerk of the Closet.
The Duke of YORK was on the Steyne, and in se
veral parts of the town, before dinner to-day. His
Royal Highnes:, is in excellent health.
The Km; has confined his airings to-day to the
Palace Gardens.

The Duke of Yont takes leave of his MaJarty, to
return to London, to-morrow.
His MAJZSTI will leave us, for Carlton Palace, in
a few days.
There will be a Concert of Sacred Music at the
Palace this evening. The invitations are more select
than numerous. The MarlboroughLrow apartments
will not admit of large assemblies. The evening
parties, therefore, have been varied, to give our resi-
dent Noblesse no serious cause for regret. Indeed,
onur beloved MO 4A NCH is actuated by generous mo-
tives in all his determinations and actions.

We learn that there is not to be a Court held at
Carlton House on Monday nest. His MAJESTY will
come to town, but he means togo to Windsor to pay
a visit to her Royal Highness the Princess AUGUSTA.
The Nobility and Gentry will leave their names at
the Palace.

every preparation is making in the department of
the Master of the Horse for his MAJESTY s going in
State to open the new Parliament. In consequence of
the Court Mourning, the state horses will not be de-
corated with ribbons as they generally have been
upon these occasions.
