THE BOMBAY MAIL. We have received by way of Marseilles our papers in anticipation of the overland mail which left Bombay on the 9th ult. We take the follow ing summary from the Bombay Times : "Our latest advices from the North-West are dated Agra, the 26th inst., from which we learn that Col. Seaton's column, which marched from Allyghur on the 13th, en, route for Etah and Myn poorie, fell in with a force of the rebels, 3,000 strong, at Gungeree on the morning of the 14th. Their surprise was complete, and after a brilliant charge of the carabineers the enemy fled in disorder along the Futtehghur road, leaving several guns behind thorn. They were hotly pursued for some distance by this corps and Hodson's Sikh horse, their loss amounting to 350 or 400 men. The casualties on our side were 48 killed and wounded. Our loss arose from the unfavourable nature of the ground, covered with thick and high shrubs, in which the murderers ensconced themselves, and from their hiding-places " potted" at our officers and men. Next day the column marched to Kas gunge, but the enemy had fled, and it was said was posted at Sahawur, a village 10 miles distant on the -Puttehghnree On the ,l6t,h the column reached gahawur, only, howeVei, to find that the enemy had continued his flight. Some 70 insurgents, who were not quick enough in their flight, were cut up by Hodson's Horse. Col. Seaton then de ter mined to follow them to Putteealee, 10 miles further, although his information of the move ments of the enemy was never to be relied on ; still he knew that they had a number of guns, and the heavy, sandy nature of the roads led him to con clude that they could not march so rapidly. On the morning of the 17th his advanced guard came upon the enemy drawn up in position in front of the village of Putteelee. Their position, which was well chosen, was reconnoitred personally by Capt. Hodson and Lieut. Greathed, of the Engineers. Their centre and left were posted behind some very ugly ravines, and their right rested in a tope of trees in front of the village. Col. Seaton made his dispositions immediately, halting the main body in order to Ore the men a short time for rest and refreshment. The light artillery soon went to the front, and the action commenced with a pretty sharp fire on both sides, which disclosed better the position of the enemy and the number of his guns., Colonel Seaton then ordered the cavalry to the right, to avoid the ravines and to take the enemy in flank. While these operations were being carried out his main body, advancing in battle array, de ployed into line from quarter-distance columns. As the infantry, under Major Eid, came in sight of the ' enemy, the artillery firing on both sides had reached its hottest point. " At the first flash, however, of the advancing bayonets gleaming in the morning sun the enemy fled en masse, while the rapid and precise fire of our artillery told with terrible effect upon his ranks. The cavalry had now cleared the ravines in front of the position, and went off in close pursuit ofthe fugitives for 7 miles. Their camp equip ige, guns (13 in number), baggage, ammunition, and stores fell into our hands, while it is supposed that not fewer than 600 of them were killed upon the field or in the pursuit. Not the least gratifying feature of this success is the small amount of cost at which it was purchased, not a single European having fallen on our side, and but three or four being wounded, and that only slightly. One of Hodson's Horse was killed. " The little force which has achieved this brilliant and decisive success, under its gallant leader Col. Seaton, fitaripil from Delhi about a month ago, and was composed as follows " Europeans—One troop Horse Artillery, one squadron 6th Carabineers, 300 bayonets Ist Bengal Fusileers, 6 rank and file 9th Royal Lancers. "Natives—Hodson's Sikh Horse, 7th Punjanb Infantry, two companies Sappers and Miners. " This important success in conjunction with the decisive victory gained by Sir Colin Campbell at Cawnpore a few days previously, must render the Doab no longer safe for the fugitives, as the whole extent of country between that city and Agra will now be swept by the combined forces. " The reverse sustained by General Windham at Cawnpore, from the impending and disastrous issues of which he seems only to have been rescued by the rapid advance of Sir Colin Campbell, has called for some remark in the papers ; but his sub sequent appointment by the Commander-in-Chief to an independent command at Limbellah would appear to indicate that uo very serious blame at taches to him in the matter. Reports were rife at one time to the effect that he had resigned his com mand, and at others that he was in arrest, but they appear to have been but exaggerated statements of Sir Colin's natural impatience of the reverse. " The scene of bur future operations of any mag nitude will of course be the left bank of the Ganges, which is in all but undisputed possession of the rebels, the destruction of the Gwalior Contingent, and Col. Seaton's brilliant victory having rendered its right no longer tenable to them. " Sir James Outram at the date of our last ad vices was still holding the palace of the Alumbagh, and we have received the following gratifying de spatch, by telegraph from Madras, of a success just achieved by him there Outram attacked and di-persed the enemy near Alumbagh on the 22d of Dec., and captured four guns, one elephant, and much ammunition. Our loss was very trifling.' " Since writing the above we are in possession of the following Mofussilite extra, bringing our news front the North-West down to the 28th inst. : " Agra, December 28, 1857. " Cawnpore. —A strong column under Brigadier Walpole left Cawnpore, on the 18th instant, and reached Akbarpore, half way to Calpee, on the 19th. It remained there for two or three days engaged in settling the surrounding country, which has been so long disorganised by the insurgent troops. " With this column are the Rifle Brigade, two battalions ; 38th Foot ; Bourchier's Battery and Blunt's Troop of Horse Artillery ; Ist Punjab Cavalry, and three squadrons of the 9th Lancers. It will proceed towards Etawah. " With the Commander-in-Chief, when his Ex cellency moves westward, will be the following regiments :—Remington's troop of Horse Artillery, Smith's Battery Royal Artillery, the Naval Brigade, with six 24-pounders, two 8-inch howitzers, and mortars ; two companies of Sappers and Miners, Bengal ditto and two companies Punjaub ditto, the cavalry which went down with Grant's column, the Bth Fort, 23d Fusiliers, 42d Highlanders, 53d, 64th, 82d, and 93d Highlanders, with a regiment of Punjaub Infantry. " The 32d, 34th, and 88th Foot remain at pre sent at Cawnpore, with the faithful remnants of the Lucknow corps, who behaved with great gallantry and fidelity. " With Sir J. Outran], at Alumbagh, are one Royal battery, two Bengal field batteries, a heavy Bengal battery, a company of Madras Sappers, the Military Train, two squadrons of Dragoons, some Irregular Cavalry, H.M.'s sth Fusiliers, 78th Highlanders, 84th Foot, 90th Light Infantry, Ma dras Fusiliers, and Fcrozepore Regt. There is a de tachment of Horse Artillery and troops at a station midway between Cawnpore and Lucknow, " The 7th Hussars are about to be formed at Allahabad, where horses are being collected for them. " A strong brigade, under Colonel Franks, has been organised at Benares, for service on the east ern frontiers of Oudo. The 20th and 97th Foot, with a wing of the 10th, and a Royal troop and battery, will form part of this force, with Madras troops and Ghoorkas.' "The following message, announcing the re occupation of Mynpoorie yesterday by Col, Seaton's The following is from the Englishman :—" It is generally reported that the Nana Sahib has been taken prisoner. He was in disguise, but as he is so well known to many officers his iderfity - can be re idly proved ; the two brothers should be sent. down to Calcutta. The King of Delhi is in custody of H.M.'s 52d, and it is expected he will soon be at Ferozepore, en route to Bombay, where steps will be taken to prevent his ever proving mis chievous again. The Prime Minister appears to be still at large ; he is one who h as pl a y e d no incon siderable part in the Delhi massacre—a large re ward should be put on his head. Truly, the rule and sovereignty of the Great Mogul were short."- The literkaric mentions, on the authority of a private letter from Cawnpore, dated the 17th De celeber, that a great -discovery was made by our troops there. It Akiettre that NagOahib, before taking to flight, threw all his treasures and jewels into two or three wells. Some budmashes having been observed very busy about the place, the locali fes were examined, and the concealed riches dis covered. This will be a glorious haul of prize money for Brigadier Grant's force. Provisions at Cawnpore are rather high, four loaves of bread only being procurable for a rupee, and five seers of rice for the same sum. It was hoped, however, that the arrival of stores would put a stop to the scarcity, which must tell terribly upon the poorer classes. The following military intelligence is from the Bombay Times:— " The ship Athlete, Capt. Potter, from London, arrived . at Kurrachee on the 31st Dec., with 185 non-commissioned rank and file of the C 9-pounder field battery of Royal Artillery.

ADO. Illeelo-11teeetA ,-•`- Piccadilly QPPOli_ito tin York Hotel, W., The date from Melbourne is Dea. 15. There is not much political or general news, but the corn menial intelligence is important and unfavourable. The following statement from the Melbourne Price Current will explain the situation of affairs : In our last circular, dated Nov. 16, we gave a detail of the causes whose operation had produced the extra ordinary staenation almost amounting to a crisis then existing. We expressed some surprise that so few failures had occurred. Up to that time only one or two of moment had been announced. Scarcely, however, had the mail for England left, when a series of stop pages took place, to such an extent as for a time almost completely to destroy confidence and suspend trade. We have before us a list of insolvencies of fifteen firms, whose liabilities, ranging from 9,0001. to 90,0001., present an aggregate of 470,000/ The crisis has been sharp, but fortunately it has been short. The principal failures have extended over a period of about six weeks, and we are happy to say that, according to the opinions of both bankers and merchants, the severity of the crisis is over, and it is believed that few or no further failures will take place for the present in Melbourne. In the other seaports, and in the interior townships, the mercantile communities have remained comparatively sound and stable. It is possible that many houses in the interior may be seriously affected by the disastrous occurrences in Melbourne, and that some may have to give, but at present there has been no such result. On examining the list of houses that have sus pended payment the restricted effect of the insolvencies is accounted for. Several are houses that have been strugglingeence 1854 with the engagements of .the pre ♦ious crisis, and most of the failures are those of houses' which four or five months ago speculated for a rise. Scarcely any of these houses have been directly connected with the goldfields. Within the last few days there have been no fresh failures, or even rumours, and a feeling of confidence arose, which for a time rapidly increased. Just as confidence was arising as above mentioned, it received a rude shock by the unprecedented occurrence of a run upon the bank—the Union Bank of Australia. This continued for several days during the week, but at the worst it was in a voter mild form, and not more than 50,0001 in gold were drawn. The panic, it is believed, arose from some expressions used in a report of a meet ing of shareholders in London, in which it was mentioned that some of the directors had received considerable ad vances. Not only were reports spread unfavourable to the credit of some of the local directors, but the stability of the bank itself was impugned. The folly of the run was clearly recognised from the first by all men in busi ness, and latterly even by the most ignorant. To make assurer ce doubly sure, however, a meeting of the Cham ber of Commerce was called, at which a considerable proporticn of our chief mercantile firms attended, and they passed a resolution expressing the highest confi dence in the stability of the Union Bank of Australia. This has been abundantly effectual, and the run has altogether ceased. We have personally ascertained that the stories of enormous advances t' directors and others which have been circulated here, are absolutely untrue, and it is equally untrue that there is any cause of doubt in reference to the stability of the bank. In another column we publish a statement of the assets and liabili ties of the various banks here. If our readers will take the trouble to strike a balance betwee❑ the assets and liabilities of the Union Bank, within the colony, they will find that the value at credit of that bank, represent ing the amount of capital employed in the colony, is 753,4201., being a larger amount than that of any other bank. The institution she stands alone in being unchar tered, and the liability of each shareholder is unlimited. The security to the public in dealing with the Union Bank is therefore much greater than that of any other institution trading in the colonies. In addition to all this•, it is only justice to those who have managed and directed the bank to state, that during the last crisis its losses by bad debts were comparatively trifling. Not withstanding these patent facts, the unthinking multi tude did "rush" the bank, From this unfortunate occurrence serious evils must flow, the principal of which will be the necessity for the bank restricting its accom modation ; and the inconvenience to its customers will be felt by the commercial community generaliy ; a por tion of the burden will be thrown ou the other banks, which will again limit their accommodation ; and thus the low prices now ruling will become still lower by this absurd run, causing a continued want of confidence, l,ss credit, and less money for the use of trade. We believe that about the beginning of the year all the banks of Melbourne will alto v interest to their de positors, and that simultaneously with this movement it is not unlikely that an advance of 1 per cent. on the rates of discount will take place. Though there ma 3 be an advance in the rates of discount, however, in the event of the proisure on the money market being re lieved the former rites may be re-established. It may be easily imagined that in present circumztauces trade has been paralysed. At the date of our last report itte nail, ad4ost , arrived, There the nature of the advices had not fully transpired. There was some hope, though but faint, that it would bring intelligence of a pirtial suspension of shipments, but to the deep disappointment and dismay of importers, speculators, and holders gener ally, it was found that, instead of any cessation, the ex ports from Europe and other parts were on a greater scale than ever. We do not hesitate to state that the main cause of all our commercial disasters is over importation. We pointed out, in our last, that the chief difficulty with which the mercantile body have at present to contend is the loss sustained by the speculations entered into in May and June last, and the retirement of bills given for the purchases. Had the shipments since that period been within reasonable bounds, the specula tions in question would have been legitimate and fortunate. As it iv, the over supplies hav e caused wide-spread disaster and ruin. Again, much depends upon the news by the present mail. If it prove that immoderate shipments are continued, the worst features of the recent crisis will again appear, and the results may be ruinous not merely to i he 11(.1ders of goods in Melbourne, but also to reckless shippers in the producing countries. It is stated, appa rently with truth, that much evil has been caused by the extensive indent orders which have been executed, in many instances for men of straw ; but this furnishes no excuse for the speculative shippers at home. They have access to the amplest information as to the quantities of goods shipped in Britain for this market, and by these they ought to have regulated their own shipments. In particular, they are to blame for ignoring the fact that Australia is now providing the greater part of the agricultural produce requisite both for man and beast, The Australian colonies will, is not this year, certainly in the next, predece all the fieur required by their inhabitants ; and, in regard to horse feed, the imports henceforth should be greatly restricted. Every year, we had almost said every month, the pro gress of agriculture modifies the extent of our import trade ; and this important fact shippers cannot too care fully bear in mind. From accounts received from the neighbouring colonies the crops of every description are much average ; and the breadth under cultivation is almost everyavhere greatly increased. The only excep tion is in New South Wales, where the crop; along the course of some of the rivers have been destroyed by floods. It is also ascertained that the crops in Europe and America, in the northern hemisphere, are consider ably above an average : and we may expect that a por tion of the surplus produce on the western seaboard of America, both north and south, will be sent to Australia as the only available market. It is a remarkab:e fact, however, that an abundant crop does not always lead to a depreciation of prices. It gives an impetus to trade, money becomes more abundant, and there is a largely increased consumption. While, therefore, we do not calculate on a rice in breadstuffs, we do not anticipate any serious decline. With regard to trade generally in this city at present we may observe that for a very long time storekeepers in the interior, and second bands generally, have been purchasing only for immediate wants. There is no red' son to believe that stocks in the interior, or in second hands, are abundant ; and should the advices by the coming mail report a decrease of shipments there would be an improvement ; but, even if a favourable report sLould be received, it is believed that prices generally would not rally for two months to come. As matters stand, the trade throughout the country is con fined to immediate requirements. There is an absolute cessation of speculative purchases. Messrs. Katzensteinand Co., of Melbourne agents for Messrs. Arubberg and Co., of Adeiaide, have contradicted an erroneous statement in the Argus, that the affairs of the latter firm had been placed in the Insolvent Court. The remark meant to apply to Messrs. Amschel and Co. The first session of the Victoria Parliament was terminated by prorogation, a:,d after a few days' recess a new session opened for the purpose chiefly of voting supplies for the ensuing year.

DEPARTURE OP THE PRINCE AND PRINCESS FREDERICK WILLIAM OF PRUSSIA. . , The folloWing adiii ional particulars in continua tion of the event which appeared in The Sun of yesterday will be found interesting : The following directors . of the South Eastern Railway Company were in attendance to receive the Royal pair :—The Hon. Jas. Byng (the chair man), Mr. W. Gordon Thompson (deputy-chair man), Mr. Coles Child, Mr. Seymour Teuton, Mr. John Cross, Mr. Chss. Gilpin, M.P., Mr.,Alex. Kay, Mr. Jonathan Miller, Capt. D. Warren, Mr. John Anderson, and Mr. H. Rich, M.P. Vhen the Princess Frederick William of Prussia entered the ante-room Miss Mary Eborall, the pretty little daughter of the general manager, presented to her a magnificent bouquet of very choice exotica, which had been brought express from Paris on the previ ous evening, and which her Royal Highness moat graciously acknowledged. Mr. Eborall, Mr. Gil pin, and some other of the directors, conduced their Royal Highnesses to the saloon carriage, which occupied a central position in the train. The direction of the engine was taken by Mr. James Cudworth, locomwive superintendent of the South-Eastern Railway, The train left the station at eight minutes to one o'clock, not more than seven minutes haying intervened between the ar rival and the departure of the Royal party. The illustrious party, on alighting at Gravesend, thanked the directors for theirattention, and Prince Frederick William presented to Mr. Eborall, manager of the railway, a very valuable ring, con sisting of a large topaz surrounded by brilliants. Throughout the route from the railway to the pier, toe 1 oyal party were enthusiastically cheered ; and the scene when the Prince Consort, Prince Frederick William, the Princess Frederick Wil liam, and Vie Prince of Wales alighted from the Royal carriage was peculiarly interesting. As the Princess alighted the cheers were immense, and many a tongue seemed to say— " Her form was fresher tban the morning rose When the dew wets its leaves; unstained and pure As is the I ly and the mountain snow.' . Yet it could not fail to be noticed— . " There was a soft and pensive grace, A cast of thought upon her face." Their Royal Highnesses wore received by Mr. Troughton (the mayor), the Corporation, Mr. C. W. Martin, M.P., Mr. J. Whatman, M.P., the Mayor and Town Clerk of Maidstone, the Mayor, Recorder, and Town Clerk of Rochester, 42:c. The Town Clerk (Mr. Sharland) having presented the address, their Royal Highnesses gracefully bowed their thanks, and Miss Troughton, the daughter of the mayor, then stepped forward and presented the Princess with an elegant bouquet, which she was graciously pleased to accept. The Royal party were then conducted to the place of embarkation. As the procession proceeded along the pier, the following young ladies, dressed in short skirts of white tarlatans, with the lightest of blue opera cloaks, and wreaths of white roses, strewed flowers from their baskets in the path of the Prince aid Prince* : .. „ Troughfen, Lizzie • - Ililder, Ellen .. 7, Williams, Louisa Pinching, Mary Anne Pa'lister, Mary Winnett, Fanny Cavell, Eliza Newman, Emily Pallister, Charlotte Everest, Annie Rackstraw, Rebecca Minn, Isabel Gould, Lizzie , Mathews, Frances Holton, Jane Charlton, Clara Barber, Elizabeth Fletcher, Margaret Moss, Mary Paralow, Mary Deane, Lizzie Evers&ld, Emily Fletcher, Susannah Martin, Lizzie Miall, Charlotte Bamford, Ellen Harman, Sarah Fletcher, Mary Smith, Sophia Winnott Caroline Death, Caroline Duval, Nattie Gregory, Elizabeth Hilder, Agnes Nevills, Elizabeth Johnson, Charlotte Deane, Mary Dobson, Katie llockley, Minnie Gregory, Cl.,ra Hatten, Frances Bromley, Lizzie Johnson, Eden Cooper, Ellen Nicholls, Kate Roxberry, Sarah Sharland, Florence Duval, Annie Johnson, Emily Watson, Rose Martin,',Charlotte Death Emma Gould, Hannah Beverley, Jane Littlewood, Annie Dobson, Annie Sharland, Margaret Beverley, Amelia Whilst this was going on a somewhat curious scene took place at the entrance to the pier. The Duke of Cambridge and Lord Alfred Paget, Equerry to her Majesty, being enveloped in s' out grew coats, and somewhat behind the rest of the Royal party, were opposed admission by over anxious ofticiale, and it was not without some re monstrance and exertion that they were &lowed to proceed amidst the cheers and laughter of the com pany. Tha Royal party having embarked on board the Victoria and Albert, a number of vessels lying around her gave her a royal salute, their yards were manned, and cheer upon cheer was echoed from the r vcr to the land, and reechoed from the laud to the river. The Royal servants having requested that 10 or a dozen of the seamen might oe allowed to assist them in putting the luggage of the Royal pair on board, another curious scene ensued, some 50 or GO stalwart tars starting for the purpose — each apps firing disappointed if he were not allowed to carry semething, however trifling, from the car riages to the vessel ; and great was the seeming triumph of one hearty fellow who had secured the carrying of a carpet-bag, whilst many of his com nraodtevisitlhi lead t n o d r i n e t g u t r i n i a t t to t e h y e m v a e d s e s e s l a e ch ra p a tr i i t i a s n i o d n e d o , f labour as would have delighted the most ultra of utilitarian economists ; one being pleased to bear a hat-box, and another delighted at being entrusted with a lady's shawl. Thus has England's daughter left her native land. The party admitted on board the Royal yacht was very exclusive. The Prince Consort, with the Prince of Wales, Prince Alfred, and the Duke of Cambridge, attended by the members of the suite who had come down in the Royal carriages, alone accompanied the Prince and Princess Frede rick William on board. Luncheon was now served, and during the time occupied by this part ing repast the crew of the yacht made themselves busy in assisting the royal servants to bring the luggage of the Prince and Princess and their suite and Prince Alfred, when he was loudly cheered by aoo nftcameboard.h royaleyouths beloved sufferings sister. hh t e eyh Princea had a t d h ° endured their Consortr eyes lu r e , bore i w e ?tl e t c ra crew wh 0 : ea: l d . few i minutestis accompaniedn o disparagementbb e: t o e e three pri nc Prince o ' c tf l ov o iN c dvt k ha : h e: s e e the m o a f st c e a re m d b g r r i( e i a ge t p sa irt l ? i f ng n himse looked internal emotion, much affected as his youthful s o plainly visible upon their by ardenthis feeling l t h ,r, s sorrowful, l , t o b but calm, asw , as ile relatives.

As fur the Royal bride herself, she did not make her ap pearance at all on deck, and it was said her suffer ings were not a whit less and youthful brothers. At length the word of command was given to " let go", the Prince Consort, with the Prince of Wales and Prince Alfred, and the Duke of Cam bridge still standing on the gangway. As soon as the signal was given, the battery at Tilbury Fort commenced firing a Royal salute, the vessels of the flotilla adding their joyous thunders to those on fitICTQ, The flotilla oongiitoil of the Osborne, passengers ar e usua ll y l It was at this moment that two . accidents oe =red, the latter of which was .fraught with some danger to the Prince alnsort, the two young Princes, the Duke of Cam bridge, and several oth e r persons. We have spoken of a gangway or tem porary connect between the T errace Pier and. Royal yacht. This was s u pp or ted on the r ontoon bafantretdgi.eeied p I.llcntg on the upper p or ti on oria and Albert m ove d . on to the bowsprit of the Monkey tug - boat, which a soin o : r u o l i loe i l g re r. hd:euer, As r d , t 000fnbtirit the nr h ge v i s c t her head round, she drove went through one of the large plate glass windows of the saloon. This naturally drew the attention of those who were at the end of the pier, and they pressed forward, as did also the Royal party on the gangway. Just at the same moment, one of the ferry steamers coming across the river narrowly escaped swamping two small boats full of passen gers, and having at the time some way upon her, she was unable to bring her head round sufficiently sharp, and thus ran her starboard paddle-box 1 against the lighter, carrying away a large portion of it with a great crash. This, of course, shook the pier and loosened the standards sumppeoartinngg the temporary gangway. The Royal party f e ll b ac k in alarm, the Prince catching hold of his sons, and rushed ,u Dukel ls hed i n g of forward cw o o u r t, aan a : d ‘ b : r l V i d h cge e a r i e l i n i g i3 4 o G or d u e George Alfredge,,?

While in Bi...tilt of Gravesend the Royal yacht proceeded slowly down the river, but her speed was afterwards increased, and it was understood that if her sailing master, Mr. Price, could secure his great objectof sytting clear of the sands and flats before dark, te l w‘,"•.',. `.: 'trot hesitate to cross the North Sea during the night. As soon as the squadron was out of sight the Royal party left the pier for the South-Eastern Railway station. As they passed through the town they could not but observe the singular contrast which the appearance of the streets presented. "The lights were not fled, neither were the garlands dead," but the continued fall of sticrw had converted all into huge bridal wreaths. whiter than the orange blossom itself. On arriving at the station the Royal party entered a special train which eon veyedlthem to Bricklayers' Arms, whence they pro ceeded to Buckingham Palace, where they arrived at four o'clock. After the departure of the Royal pal ty, the mayor of Gravesend entertained a large party of the officials, together with the military escort (the Cobham Trocp of the West Kent Yeomanry), his confreres of Rochester and Maidstone, the county members, and many other notabilities, in the As. sembly Rooms—in all about 300 persons. After the usual toasts, the party separated, hap pily, however, to be assembled again at the ball which tcok place later in the evening in the As sembly Rooms. The company was brilliant and numerous, and dancing was kept up to a late hour, not the least interesting the personages being the bevy of damsels who had in the morning strewn with flowers the pathway of their youthful and newly-married sister. THE VOYAGE. Were it not for the depressing influence of the weather, no portion of the pageant of yesterday would have surpassed the scene upon the Thames between Gravesend and the Nore for its real mag nificence and splendour. The river was literally covered with craft, all festooned with signal flags and laurel, and bearing the national standards of England and Prussia. The deck of every vessel was crowded with gentlemen and ladies, all anxious to catch a farewell glance of the Royal bride ere she left the shores of her native land for the home of her adoption ; and, tk,ugh the snow fell heavily, and no street slush could be more chilling or more uncomfortable than the wet boards on which they were standing, no degree of cold could freeze the warm loyalty of the people ; and they bore up agaiust all annoyances, and pre ferred the deck to the saloon. Their endurance de served to be rewarded ; but it is in sight-see ing as in other affairs of life, few get their real deserts, and yesterday the thousands who were on • the river had no other means of knowing that the Royal party had embarked than that conveyed to them by the huzzas from shore, and the uplifting of Captain Denmau's hat in salutation of his illustrious passengers. This took place a few minute,_ before three o'clock. The crews of the Alacrity, the Vivid, and the other impels of the Royal Navy, manned their yards. The Royal Standard was hauled down from the mainmast of the Victoria and Albert, and the Royal Ensign of Prussia, with the Black Eagle upon the Cross, was hoisted in its place. The signal to get under weigh was then given, and amidst the rapturous cheers of' the immense multitude which thronged both shores, and the inspiring strains of tho National Anthem which proceeded from the bands on board of different vessels, the bridal flotilla took its de parture. The guns of Tilbury fort fired a Royal salute, which was answered by a similar compli ment from the Kentish shore. For several miles down the river the Royal yacht and the Prince Frederick William alternately passed and _ passed each other, and on each Occasion of their. coming side by side the loyal excursiouists on board the latter vessel enthusiastically cheered the bridal natty. A Royal squadron accom panied the Victoria and Albert, and to vessels coming up the river the scene must have been somewhat startling. The Royal yacht had steamed some 12 or 14 miles from Gravesend when she ran into the stern of a barque, the Ryhope, of Hartlepool, bearing up the river, and carried away the whole of her taffrail. The rudder of the Ryhope was left bare, and the debris hanging to the stern gave a very alarming aspect to the acoilent, which we may add was altogether unavoidable, so far as the Royal yacht was clicerned, and indeed the wonder is how she was able to got clear of the im mense number of boats and steamers which thronged the river at the time of her departure from Graves end. Immediately upon the occurrence of the clllision the Royal yacht slackened steam, but upon ascertaining that the injured ves sel was in no way imperilled, she proceeded on her voyage. Mr. Churchward, of the Mail Steam Packet Company, at once lowered a boat, and with some of the crew of t theeinjured the t: t i o Frederick iiofvet shsoesl :V ; William, t a m b awrcien happilytt the e o e thee mail wil assistance steamerins t o anc o of ot neces sity for his interference. It had been th e or i g i na l in have acc*mpanied the Royal yacht as far as the Nore. But in consequence of the state of the weather this intention was abandoned, and • imme diately after the collision already mentioned, the Frederick William parted company with the Royal yacht. THE WEATHER AND THE PARES.--Yesterday the several parks at the West-end were completely deserted, in consequence of a heavy fall of snow, which continued for several hours. Numerous accidents occurred among pedestrians in consequence of the slippery state of the streets, but none of the persons admitted info the hos pitals were fatally injured. The traffic of vehicles was considerably interrupted through the state of the prin cipal thoroughfare of the metropolis, which were covered with snow. - t w h h e o B h bad i repaired ,h Am ba Ambassador, d Paris or, up f o o n t the ..... LORD COWLEY AND THE FUNERAL 03' THE LATE QM*. MOTHER OF OUDE.—On the occasion of celebrating the g Y u ' est having been acceded to, the hour funeral rites of her Majesty the Queen-Mother of Oude, of doing honour to her obsequies, desirous to show as much respect as possible, requested an interview of 2 p.m. on Wednesday, the 27th ult., was appointed as the time of the interview.

On arriving there, and making known his errand, he was, to his utter surprise and astonish ment, informed, through Lord Cowley's secretary, that his lordship had important foreign business to transact, and that, with reference to a request marls that his lord ship should apply to the Emperor to allow an honorary troop to attend the funeral ceremony, such application must be made to the French Government, as he declined to interfere in the matter. Thii Vakeel then applied as directed, when a note was sent in answer, stating that the French Government were willing to show every demonstration of esteem and honour to the Queen's remains, presided the English Ambassador would apply to them. The result of this communication was made known to his Excellency, and a reply promised next mor❑i❑g before 9 o'clock. The time passed, however ; no answer was received, excepting that Lord Cowley had lift Paris for England. Thus, for the present, the matter reFts. - - - - EXTENSIVE ROBBERY OF ANCIENT COlNS.—lnforma. tion was yesterday received at the different metropolitan police stations, that the house of a gentleman residing at Preston had been burglariously entered, and, a large kl qua ntity of go and silver coins stolen, consisting of five-guinea pieces and guineas of the reigns of Charles 11., James 11., William and Mary, William Arne, George 1., George IL, George IV., and Victor various other gold coins, from the reign of Ed! nd ar o d thers, to Charles 11., including nobles, gelsf together with silver coins from the r a eig to Victoria, consisting of crowns, ha lf-crown ie'd off gola and smaller pieces.
