THE EMPEROR NAPOLEON AND TIM MARRIAGE
OP THE PRINCE OP WALES.—The Nation, ander its newly

Amongst other particulars of the preparations
may be ineotioned the publication of a Nuptial Ode by Pro.

ROYAL NAVAL SCHOOL, NNW CROSS. —lO cele-
bration of the marriage of his Royal fl' keen the Prince of
Wirelas (who is a life governor of this ea. ool) the Duke of
Somerset has given an extra naval cadetship for mrupetition
amongst the pupils, and the Board of Admiralty have granted
nominations for one master's assistant and one clerk's
assistant, Royal Navy. These Bomb:aliens are in addition
to the naval and marine cadetships annually placed at the
disposal of the council. Although this school has been esta-
blished little more than a quarter of a century, upwards of
600 of its former pupils hare entered her Majesty's naval
and military services.

At Southampton a large number of poles, each
50 feet high, have within the last dry or two been raised
along the edge of the pavement oo each side of the spacious
High-street, which is about • mile in length. Ropes will
connect these poles for the purpose of adorning the whole
length of the street with festoons of flags and evergreens on
the day of the Prince of Wald marriage. An ox will be
roasted whole, and previous to its bean slaughtered it will
be paraded through the town, decorated with English and
Danish colours, and with its horns gilded. In the evening
there will be a monster torch light • n, which will
proceed through the streets to uSo
when there will be • huge bonfire.

A Bray TIME rou BURGLAR.—The arrival of
the Princess Alexandra will be the signal for the London
burglars and pickpockets to me their best energies to turn
to account a rare and happy opportunity. Houses will be
ransacked, pockets rifled, and perhaps a little garotting
may be indulged in to make the felons' work is keeping
with the excitement going on around. The 7th will
be a harvest-time for all the rascals of the land.
AU the thieves of all the towns have their
plans already prepared, sod while the press is openly
proclaiming what measures are to be adopted to encourage
public rejoicing, these are secretly devising how to make a
large booty, with the most perfect impunity, during the
hours of public forgetfulness. Corporations sod town coun-
cils may consider this matter as to efficient arrangement. for
disposing of the police, and we know no reason why, where
circumstances seem to require it, volunteer ride companies
might not co-operate with the pohoe, not in watching dark
alleys, and dodging suspicious characters, but in marshalling
processions and assisting receptions, in which generally the
police are absorbed, to the detriment of the public safety.—

FATAL DUEL ?MAE VIILNNA.—A fatal duel has
just taken place in the Brigettenatt, near Vienna, the prin-
cipals in it being M. Muragna y Nildosola, Spanish secretary
of legation, sod the Count de Rechten de Mosarti, holding
a similar poet at the Dutch embassy. The combatants,
who fought with pistols, were placed at a distance of fifty
paces, with the liberty of each advancing ten, so that the
exchange of shots took place at thirty paces. Count de
ltechtern fired the first, but without effect ; and the next.
moment the Spaniard's ball passed through his lungs and
killed him on the spot. The body was left on the ground,
and was afterwards found by a forest keeper, and a paper
bad been put into the locket to iodise' a belief that t►e
death had been the result of suicide. The Spaniard hie
already quitted Austria, and up to the present time His
seconds have not been discovered. Count de Rechtarn was
the only sou and heir of oust of the most wealthy mea in
Holland. The cause of the tragical event is said to be a
handsome married lady, in whose salons the two y sung
diplomatists were received—a fact which excited thc. jea-
lousy of the Spaniard.

No intelligence has comb this mouth from Dr.
Liviogstone or the Zambesi missies ; but it was ►mown that
the lirallpos had been raging with awful violence about Hose-
likatse's country, and the disease had spread with such,
rapidity among the Itanuingwatos as to almost decimate the
tribe. The people were so reduced as to be ui-sble to inter
their dead, and the bodies were left to be pr.yed upon by
the hyenas. This had so emboldened these a.. i.. DAB, that
they bad taken to stealing the living children from out of
the villages of the tribe. The wife of Mr. 8.,,111,crg, a

RiILSIII with which they listened to and applauded the old
melodies of their native land.
