BRIGHTON, MARCH 6.

The strong and piercing North wind continues,
giving a heavy swell to the Channel, and robbing
the rides and walks of all attractions. Our beloved
MONARCH, under such uninviting circumstances, con-
fines himself to the Marlborough-row part of the
Palace, but in the happiest state of continued health
and excellent spirits. Carriage airings, and on horse-
back, it is understood, his MAJESTY will have re-
course to, as soon as the weather becomes a little
more favourable.

Lord STRANGFORD had his audience of leave at
the Court of Stockholm on the 12th of February.
The King of SWEDEN made his Lordship a present
of his portrait in a'snuff-box, richly ornamented with
diamonds, and also gave him two vases of Swedish
porphyry. His Majesty presented Lady STRANG-
room with a rich diadem, ornamented with brilliants.
