L. O N D ON, February 29! “ Perhaps very few princes in the world haveever fo many virtues, or fomuch wifdom as his prefent majefty king George the third. His religious duty to God in public is a truly good egzample to all fubjects of what rank fo- ever, His piety,duty,and affeétion,are worthy of imitation. His majefty rifethat five o’clock every morning, lights his own candle from the lamp which burneth all night in his room, dreflfeth himfelf, then calleth a fervant to bring him bread, butter and chocolate. At fix he goeth to chapel, where he hath morning prayers in the moft religious man- ner. At his return he readeth petitions and letters 3 after which he rideth on hoifeback for two or three hours for exercifes, and air3 .then readeth fome religious or moral book, until his minifters of ftate come to confult on -the affair of the Nation, at which he is very ready to give directions and anfwers, know- ing the conftitution of all his dominions ex- ceedingly well. His dinner confifteth but of four difhes, drefled up plain, eateth temper- ately of them, and drinketh but a'fmall _quantity of weak Rhenifth wine mixed with water. His fupper is a cruft of bread and a ‘glafs of water. He is remarkably refpectful and loving to hismother the princefs of Wales, whom he vifiteth every afterrioon, and fpend- ‘eth fome hours with her royal highnefs, to whom he hath made a prefent of Buckingham houle to refide in, which coft him 21,000 I. He is alfo very affeétionate and generous to hisbrothers & fifters, and fheweth the greateft refpect and efteem to his uncle the duke of Cumberland, and is moft humane and be- | He difcoun-: nevolent to all his houfehold. tenances gaming as much as poffible, hath turned fome out of employment for be- ing gamefters, rebuked fome ladies of quality in public for having drums,and playing cards on funday, and will not admit any perfon to court, who fhall profane that holy day by affemblies or gaming. The kingisa very good rathematician, and a moft, elegant archite¢t, fome of whofe defigns are going to be publithed by Mr. Chambers, his majefty’s preceptor, inthat {cience ; and a royal palace ‘will begin to be erected upon the conclufion of a peace, on his majefty’s plan. A fine monument is erelting in Wellminfler- Abbey, by Roubilliac; to the memiry of Mr. Handel ; and monu- mints will alfo be erefted for Admiral Vernon, Lord . Howe, and General Wolfe. feb 17.
