THE KING.

London Was never known to be fuller at this season
of the year than it is at present. The Palace yester-
day fully evinced it, by the immense crowd of persons
of distinction who attended there, to make inquiries
after the state of his MAJESTY'S health ; far exceeding
in numbers any day since the indisposition of the Discs.
A great many Ladies of distinction remained in the
Palace a considerable time, in expectation of seeing
the Ex-King of SWEDEN, but were again disappointed.
The following are the Bulletins of this day :
44 WINDSOR •CASTLE, NOV. 30.
" Nine, P. M, •

" His MAJESTY has had some hours sleep in the
course of the day, and appears better this evening."
(Signed as before.)
" WLNDSOR CASTLE, DEC. 1.
" His MAJESTY has not passed a very good night,
but is much the same as he was yesterday."

(Signed as before.)

It is said that his MAJL►STY will shortly remove
from Windsor to the Queen's Palace, for the conve-
nience of the Physicians, and that he will come to
town as soon as his apartments can be got ready.—
The QUEEN and PRINCESSES will also, of course, reside
at the Palace.

Yesterd ly se'nnight the Marquis of DOWNSHIRE, in
person, acknowledged and suffered recoveries, before

Mr. 0 kKI.EY, of Martin's-lane, Cannon-street, is not
the Attorney who was connected with the transactions

Thursday the 15th ult. the Sheriff of Edinburgh
granted warrant for imprisoning I.ieut. RICHARD
BANKES, commanding his Majesty's gun-brig Fou-
WARD, till he found sureties to the amount of £lOO,
to stand his trial within six months, for the crime of
deforcing a Sheriff's officer, and of resisting the exe-
cution of a warrant issued by the Sheriff-substitute of
Zetland, of which he stands charged at the instance
of his Majesty's Advocate.
Two large cotton-mills have been destroyed by fire :
that of Messrs. Roams and Co. at Wearyholm, near
Carlisle ; and also that of Messrs. MIDDLETON and
Co. at Sheffield.
A cause respecting the delivery of game and parcels
was determined on Thursday, at Guildhall, before
the Sitting Aldermen, Sir John Perring and Mr.
Combe, which is of some importance to the public,
particularly to those who reside in the neighbourhood
of London. William Waddington, of Crescent-
house,Brompton,after repeated complaints and notices
to no good purpose, preferred formal information, pur-
suant to the Act, against Mr. Fagg, of the Bell and
Crown, Holborn, and his Porter, for a wrong and im-
perfect delivery of some game on the 10th November.
The complaints were, that it was not delivered accord-
ing to the direction, that no porter's ticket was deli-
vered with it ; and that Sd. instead of 6d. was charged
and received on the delivery; under pretence that 2d.
of the money was for booking, or warehouse room,
at the Bell and Crown, all which are illegal and liable
to separate penalties.
Mr. Humphries attended as Solicitor for Mr. Fagg
and his porter, and having at once pleaded guilty to
the principal offence, and been adjudged to pay the
full penalty of 40s. besides costs, Mr. Waddingtoh was
induced, with the consent of the Aldermen, to forbear
pressing for the further pendlties ; it being, however,
distinctly understood, that the charge of 2d. for book-
ing or warehouse rOom at the inn where the coach n-
p-lees is not legal t that the delivery must be as poin-
!ted out in the direction, and be accompanied by a
Wiroper pence's ticket.

THE ARMY.

Reinforcements are to be immediately sent to Lis-
bon, and among the rest a large body of Royal Ma-
rines : 200 of this description of force embarked at
Ply mouth on Thursday, and sailed in la Ru:::
gate ; and 400 more were to be embarked ye•tmlay
in the ABERCII9MBIE, for the same destination.—The
ABLI{CROMBIE had been ordered to Basque Roads,
but was countermanded.

At the departure of the post yesterday, the fleet
for Cadiz and Lisbon had not sailed ft (lin Cowes, in
the mean time many Officers had an opportunity of
going out to join the armies of Lord WELLINGTON
and General GRAHAM.

Among the reinforcements about to he sent out to
the army in Portugal, are mentioned—

2 Brigades of Cavalry.
Some more Artillery.
------- Foot Guards.
42d, or Royal Highlanders, let battalion.
52d (Sir John More's) 2.1 ditto.
68th, 75th, and 88th Regiments, besides some corps front
Ireland.

The West York Militia have marched into Hilsea
Barracks. A detachment of them marched yesterday
to Fort Cumberland, to do duty over the convicts.
Wednesday the half-yearly examination took place
at the Senior Department of the Royal Military Col-
lege, at High Wycombe, before a Board of Gene-
ral Officers, consisting of his Royal Highness the
Duke of GLOUCESTER; General CALVERT, Adjutant
General a General Lord HARCOURT ; Colonels LE
MARCHANT and BUTLER, and Sir H. DOUGLAS, when
Captain Ostuntrz,sth Dragoon Guards, Captain OK EN.
72d Foot, and the Hon. Lieutenant CcazoN, sth
Dragoon Guards, underwent a strict examination in
the various branches of military Science, to the entire
satisfaction of the Board, and received certificates of
their full qualification to serve on the General Staff
of the Army. •
We anxiously hope soon to see medals, or some
other honorary distinctions, instituted for proficiency
in Military literature. These would serve as incite.
ments to industry, and emulation of talents, among
the students—the only road to improvement ; and
would be found to carry with them a far better and
more solid recommendation for appointments on the
Staff than either birth or fortune.
WILLIAM BYAM MARTIN, Esq. is appointed Gover-
nor of Amboyna.
Yesterday morning Lieutenant-Colonel JonssToNn
left town, to take the command of the 102 d regiment,
the South Wales corps.

The 211, or Queen's Royal Regiment of Foot, is on
its march from Ipswich to Chichester.

Last week two privates of the 2d battalion of the
infantry of the line of the German Legion, but Dutch-
men by birth, and enlisted from d prison-ship of war,
were condemned to transportation for life, by a Ge-
neral Court• Martial, for stealing a boat some time
since, with a view of deserting to the enemy, and
were drummed out of the regiment, previously to
their sentence being carried into execution.
Six French prisoners made their escape from the
Canada prison ship in the Medway last week ; they
knocked down the sentry, took possession of the boat
and got clear off ; but some of them have since been
retaken.

----------
A few nights since one of the Prince's Hussars,
going with dispatches from Hastings to Bexhill, de-
ceived by the water overflowing the dykes at Bulver-
hithe, rode into the flood, and was unfortunately
drowned. His horse succeeded in gaining the cause-
way, and was saved.

The Banker at the door of a Menagerie haranguing
the gazers at the daubs in front, on the attributes of a
fine Golden Eagle, said, he can look at the sun
without spectacles ! and the more trighter it shines, the
more higher he flies I"
COVENT-GARDEN THEATRE..—A second edition of
the Hero of the North, under the title of Gustavus Vasa,
was produced last Thursd.ry night at this Theatre.
The subject was rendered more interesting by the ar-
rival of the fugitive King ot SWEDEN to this country,
and his supposed presence in the Boxes. This cir-
cumstance completely overbalanced the want of no.
velty, and the Piece was received with the most en-
thusiastic applause. Its music, (of which it chiefly
consists,) is most judiciously selected ; and the airs
were sung with first-rate excellence by Mrs. DICKONS,
Mrs. C. KENIBLE, Mrs. LISTON, and Miss BOLTON.
Mu, H. JOHNSTON, in Gunilda, and YOUNG, in Gusta-
vus, displayed their well-known powers to the greatest
advantage.—The scenery is appropriate and magnifi-
cent, and the whole far superior to most of the Pieces
which for many years have been introduced to the stage.
Mrs. DICKONS, in Frederica, the destined consort of
Gustavus, gave the following air, in a style which drew
forth repeated peals of applause : the words are in
imitation of the Soldier tired of War': Alarms :

The Eagle thus, who‘e strong disdain
Has nobly burst the hated chain,
Indignant springs away—
Then lifts aloft his royal' eyes,
Undazzled sweeps thro' golden skies,
And drinks the blaze of day!

tTCEUM.—A musical afterpiece, called Love and
Law, was produced here last night. An attorney
confines a rich female ward to his house, with a view
to marry her to his nephew. Her lover, MATHEWS,
gets access to the house in the guardian's absence, by
representing successively Lady Peppermt, Malachi, a
Jew, and the Yorkshire nephew. By the as;umption
of the two first characters he deceives the servants,
an by the last transformation had nearly deceived
the Attorney. He escapes at last with the Lail v, and
the guardian as usual is outwitted. Th.?. strength of
thistrifle depends on the imitativepowers of MaTifEws,
but the occasions for the several transformations were
not always happily managed, which gave rise to
some opposition, but the greater part of the audience
appeared to be satisfied with it. The music is pretty
enough. MATHEWS was loudly encored in one of the
sc ngs, called Manager Strut. Mrs. EDWIN, in the
,p 1 Y, performed the Country Girl with great spirit.
