A. letter from Stockholm, of the 5th instant, relates an

accident to the aged King-

" A few days ago, the King had the misfortune to fall over a screen in his bedchamber. Both knees were so severely hurt, particularly the left, that his Majesty fainted in consequence of the pain. However, this accident, which ap- peared so dangerous at first, has had no serious result. The King has resumed his usual occupations.
