The KING'S approach to a state of convalescence is slow, but most confident hopes are entertained that it will be sure." THE REGENCY BILL. This Bill has at last been laid before the House of Commons, and passed through a Committee. It differs but little from that proposed in 1788, espe cially after the alterations which have been made in it, and which replace nearly the whole of the KING'S Household at the disposal of her MAJESTY. In the appointment of her Council, a new system was adopted. Instead of nominating its Members by their offices, they were nominated by their names. which secures the continuance of their advice to her MAJESTY, although they should be removed from their respective offices by the will of the Re gent. In the former Bill his MAJESTY had no power to interpose himself for the purpose of esta blishing an inquiry into•the state of his health.—ln the present Bill he is to have the power, in this way ;—the QUEEN'S Council must assemble in the presence of her MAJESY, upon his Royal will being signified for that purpose. The progress of this Bill has been checked by the opposition made to some of its clauses. Se veral divisions took place, but the Ministers being supported by a large majority, their antagonists gave up the unavailing contest at the time, and the Bill went through a Committee, but the report of it was postponed to Monday, in consequence of a notice from Mr. PONSONBY that he should feel it his duty to divide the House once more on the sub ject. It is expected the Bill will pass the Commors on Tuesday next. If any delay should occur, it must be solely occasioned by the imprudent othci ousness of the PRINCE'S friends. -.4 11 .--- SPAIN. The last letters from Cadiz are truly mortifying to those who expected from the meeting of the Cortes the birth of a generous popular spirit in the country. Their debating with shut doors, and other acts, have damped the public ardour—and vke lament to hear that the new Regency, like the oh', has lost its influence on the people. The distance to which the French throw their shells, has ter rified the inhabitants of Cadiz. Some of the boml s fell in the very centre of the city ; and though, by being loaned with lead, they did little mischief, yet they served to affright the timorous, and to serve the views of the disaffected. The thing tru'y to be dreaded is, that the French will establish their position between the City and the Isle of Leon, a thing which we apprehend the British cannot prevent ; and in that case, no great depen dence is to be had on the energy of the Spanish garrison. UNITED STATES. STATES. The American Government has at last been re. warded for its subserviency to France, by the full possession of Louisiana and West Florida, in the TO SUBSCRIBERS AND THE PUBLIC.

ONESIMUS finds himself unable, owing to illness, to complete his intended Account of the Rev. RICHARD PovAH, L.L.D; and must, therefore, defer the same till the appearance of the next week's number of this publication.—A recent Letter, dated Holborn, is come to hand ; but, besides that the hand writing of it is r ather difficult exactly to decipher, ONESIMUS does not exactly apprehend the intentions of its Author. If the object of the Letter should be at all attended to, it will be necessary for the contents of it to be made more explicit and circumstantial than at present Os ..npear to be, Another Letter might clear up this little obscurity. THE KING. Bulletins of his Majesty's health issued since our last publication : Sunday—" His Majesty has had a good night, and is better to day. Menriay—g‘ His Majesty is as well to day as he WAS yester day." Tuesday—" His Majesty has had a good night, and is, in all respects, as well as he was yesterday.' Wednesday—" His Majesty's state is little different from what it has been these last two days." Thursday—" His Majesty remains as well as he was yester- Friday—" His Majesty continues very much in the state in which he has been for the last two or three slays." Saturday—" His Majesty continues very much the same as he was yesterday." His Majesty had another relapse on Saturday se'nnight, occasioned, it is said, by going into the warm bath, which produced considerable relaxation. 44 Windsor, Jan. 17. " His MAJESTY'S health is materially improved, he isgaining stfcrigtlidaily ; and,it is with greatpleasure that we can announce, that, after dinner this after noon, his MAJESTY, attended . by Drs. BAILLIE, HEBERDEN, and WILLIS, walked for more than half an hour on the north-side of the Terrace, during the greater part of which time his MAJESTY was in conversation with those Gentlemen. His MA JESTY felt much refreshed by the air ; and, upon the whole, derivedinuch benefit from the walk.— In addition to this important change, we under- I 'Arr •
