THE PRINCESS OF WALES —On Thursday Sea night, Mr. Sicard, Steve urd to the Princess of Walea, who, -since her departure from this kingdom, has resided at Kensington Palace, received a letter from her Royal Highness, iothrming him that she was on her way front Pesaro to England, where she expected to arrive in a very short time ; and desiring him to communicate to Mr. St. Leger her wish that he should immediately proceed to Calais to be iu rea diness to meet her on her arrival there, and that Miss Garth and 11Irs.St. Leger should repair to Do ver, in order to be in readiness to attend her Royal Highness on her landing at that place. The Princess I also expressed a wish that her apartments at Ken aingtou Palace should be prepared for her reception. The moment the contents of the letter were made known, the surprise that took place was greater than can well be expressed ; and no small degree of confusion and embarrassment prevailed among the present inhabitants of Kensington Palace. A similar surprise was, on the receipt of the intelligence, ex cited at Carlton-house, and the other Royal Palaces, no individuA belonging to which had the slightest intimation that the illustrious personage in question iuteuded to soon to come back to this country. At the time when her Royal Highness left England, the vhole of her furniture was removed from the arartments she had occupied at Kensington Palace ; and no idea leaving been entertehted that she in tended again to return to them, some of them it ve since been appropriated to the establishment of their Roycl Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Kent. Under these circumstances it has been concluded, that the idea of affording the Princess an accommo dation at her lute residence must be altogether aban doned ; and we understand that a house, with every suitable conveaieuce, has been provided at Black heath, and that it will be ready for the reception of her Royal Highness as soon as she reaches that place. The Princess has not yet arrived, but is ex pected very shortly. Various (and indeed some strange) emejectbres have been hazarded as to the motives that maid have induced the Princess to re vheit a country where nothing any longer remained to excite her interest; nothing to attract her re galls, and to which it was aupposed she had bade a final *Oita. But the inter poliable reason is the suit which is now pending in Chancery, where her Royal Highness is a plaintiff, and the Earl of Li verpool and Count Munster defendants. It is said, that in consequence of some doubts which have been entertained respecting the validity of a certain in- Ste ement on which the istie of that emit depends, the present e of leer Royal Highness is indisr;ensubly necessary to remove the saute and that without steels a proceeding she wil: not Le alsie to recover the property she sued for. We areassured that part of the soldiers who were removed from Cueiz, have dispersed telamgh the different provinces of =pain, and joined the Gueril las. If this be true, the Court of Madrid cannot I but feel teneasy. Will that Court still refuse to mr.l:c any concersien to the spirit of the roe? AUGUST IL Nub 7 IfE PLAGU E'. ...UMW. REPORT.

PRINCE LFOPOLD. —On Wednesday morniog, about 10 o'clock, l'r.nce Leopold arrived in town, at Marlborough-house, from Claremont, in his tra velling post chaise, uttended by Baron Harden. brooke, followed by Sir Robert Gardiner an.l Dr. Stockman, in a barnuch. His Royal Highness and Suite only remained during the time of changing horses, and then proceeded through London to Bar net, on his way to S vain& where his Royal High ness will visit the Martini . and Marchioness of Staf ford ; also the Duke of Montrose, the Fad of Lauderdale, and several alters of the Nobility and personages of distinction in the north. Ooe of the Chinese Jugglers has been committed, to Lincoln Castle for trial, for stealing a gold watch, chain, and seals, from the Inn where they slcpt at Guinsborough. Canova is at present building a church at his own expense, to adorn his native city in the state of Ve nice. It is to be built in the antique style, and it is estimated that the espet.ce will exceed 100,000 piastres. The Government of England, as one sole Mo nurchy, is of a thousand 'ears standing—frena the time of Egbcrt, in the year 819. Scotland, the Northern Part, was a diaitict Sovereignty of about 1100 years startling ; and Wales was erected into a kingdom by 'dwell°, son of Cadwallader, the last King of the Britons. They are all three now hap pily united, under the name of Great Britain.— Wales being incorporated with England in the reign of Henry tate bth, and Scotland bring united to it in the reign of Queen Anne, May 1, 1707.

In repairing one of the walls of the antient church of OgLoura St. George, near Marlburough, a few days agm, the workmen discovered a large groupe of figures painted on the wall, covering a space of 17 feet square, which appear to be the " Descent into Hell." " The hat Jutl;;ment," and " The Triumph of the Church.' Many of the figures are in a perfect state. On the wall above the column of the middle aisle they found under the wkitc.washing a figure upwards of 9 fiet high, I in the position jf striking a rugged staff en the ground, an,: lVt the pidut..% a seal. of I a ship, wit:t marine emblems.
