Windsor Sept. 25th. 1803.

The King is sensible of Mr. Secretary Yorke's Attention in communicating to Him the two private letters He has received from the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland as well as the Public Dispatches as they relate to Emmett who certainly appears to have been the the most conspicuous Person in the Rebellious tumult of the 23d of July in the City of Dublin.

The Circular letter to the Lord Lieutenants of Counties is so very clear that it seems impossible any great difficulty on the subject of Volunteers shall again arise and this enables the King to rejoice at Mr. Secretary Yorke's having brought into some degree of Order a matter when placed under his direction which was in a most perfect state of confusion, and required his tallents, assiduity and clearness to develop, a steady attention not to deviate from the plan now laid down will prevent further difficulty.

The King has no objection to the Lord Mayors bringing the Officers of the London Volunteers on Wednesday and shall be glad if they are early presented on that day He will certainly be in time at St. James's but cannot be answerable further unclear the moment at which they will be presented.
