The papers report the convalescence of Louis Philippe's family- "
We are happy to learn that the Countess de Nenilly, who was very seriously indisposed, and obliged to keep her bed for several days after the arrival of the ex- Royal Family of France at the Star and Garter at Richmond, is now nearly con- valescent. The Count de Neuilly, who is in the enjoyment of excellent health, was scarcely affected by the deleterious nature of the water which was supplied to the inmates at Claremont. The leaden and zinc pipes through which the water was conveyed to Claremont House are being removed, and new ones substituted in their stead. The large reservoirs, also, whence all the water was obtained for the use of the household, are in the course of being newly cased, so as to prevent the possibility of any danger for the future arising from the same causes which occasioned so much alarm a fortnight ago. The family, suite, and domestics of the ex-King and Queen number no less than thirty-eight persons, occupying between forty and fifty apartments at the Star and Garter Hotel, which were engaged for one month. At the expiration of that period the family are expected to return to Claremont."
