The London Journals of Sunday last, the 18th inst. reached us by the mail of last night. Those prints only state of his majesty's health what we had known in an early part of yesterday, and we deeply regret to say that it is of the most gloomy complexion. Late on Saturday evening His Majesty's disorder wore so unfavourable an aspect that even his medical attendants, who had hitherto given such sanguine representations of his case, entertained the most serious fears for his safety. It was not that any fatal event would take place immediately, but that he could not long sustain the violence of his distemper in its twofold pressure, mentally and bodily.
