Cbr Court.
THE King of the Belgians dined with the King and Queen at Wind- sor Castle, on Sunday afternoon. After dinner, King Leopold returned to Claremont. On Monday, King William visited Kew, and on Wed- nesday came to town and held a Court at St. James's Palace. Gene- ral Sir H. Bouverie kissed hands on being appointed Governor of Malta. His Majesty gave audiences to Lord Melbourne, Lord Pal.. merston, Mr. Spring Rice, Lord John Russell, and Lord Minto; and returned to Windsor in the evening.
The Queen also came to town on Wednesday, but not, as usual, in the same carriage with the King. Her Majesty was attended by Lady Clinton. The courtly chronicler is too courtly to allude to any Royal tiff, but probably that was the cause of their Majesties unwonted sepa- ration from each other. The Princess Sophia visited both the King and Queen, perhaps with the hope of effecting a reconciliation ; if so, we fear that her benevolent efforts were fruitless, as the Queen re- turned to Windsor, about an hour before his Majesty, in her private carriage.
