The King.
PUBLIC ANXIETY ALLAYED.
On the 29th inst the King passed a comfortable day, and suffered less discomfort from his wound.
Public anxiety on account of the King’s health is disappearing. There were no crowds at Buckingham Palace last night. The Stock Exchange has reopened very firm. It is officially notified that the King sees no correspondence, and is not approached on matters of State business. He has occasional short interviews with his children-
The wound, which is of considerable depth, is dressed twice daily from the bottom, as it is essential that is should heal from the bottom. The dressing causes considerable pain, which is borne by his Majesty with great fortitude.
Sir Francis Laking, Sir Thomas Barlow, and Sir Frederick Treves, the King’s medical attendants, have not left the Palace since the operation. His health permitting, the King will witness the colonial troops march past the review on the Horse Guards’ The King will also endeavour to see the Indians, whom the Prince of Wales is to review in the Queen’s presence on Wednesday. The Prince of Wales on Sunday evening was satisfied that the King was doing remarkably well. After some hours on a conch, his Majesty retired to bed at 8.30, refreshed by the change.
