THE PRINCESS ALEXANDRA.

OFF MARGATE AND THE NOR&

At 11 o'clock on Thursday night the royal
yacht, the Victoria and Albert, with her Royal
Highness the Princess Alexandra on board, arrived
in the Margate roads, and anchored about three-
quarters of a mile from the shore. The yacht was
attended by the Warrior, the Revenge, and a
smaller vessel. News of the arrival of the Princess
obtained general currency throughout the town at
an early hour yesterday morning, and loyal dis-
plays were at once exhibited, and con-
tinued until the vessels proceeded on their journey.
At nine o'clock a deputation, consisting of the
mayor, aldermen, and the vicar, waited on Admiral
Smart, on board the Warrior, to ascertain if her
Royal Highness would receive an address from the
Mayor, aldermen, and burgesses of the borough of
Margate. The admiral was unable to answer the
question, but sent his secretary on board the royal
yacht with the names of the deputation, and with
directions to inform the Princess of their object.
The reply returned was that her Royal Highness
would receive the deputation at half-past two
o'clock. The following address was accordingly
prepared, and presented to her Royal Highness :

THE GERMAN FEDERAL TROOPS ON

THEIR MARCH.
(now oak owl( coazzarostaarr.)
HAMBURG, D. 17.

The federal troops have commenced their march,
and are approaching the frontiers of Holstein and
Laueuburg from all sides. The Hanoverian, after
being reviewed by their King and exhorted by him
to uphold their well-earned fame, are massed at
Harburg and other places on the opposite side of
the Elbe, and breathe nothing but war. The
Saxons were to be furnished with the German
(black, red, and gold) cockade, but King Johann
has since thought proper to annul the order. They
have passed Magdeburg, and will leave the railroad
carriages in Mecklenburg and march into Lauenburg
on foot. The march of the Austrians will be more
quiet, as the Schleswig-Holstein agitation is by no
means palatable at Vienna. For the present their
force will be limited to a corps of 5,500 men ; but
preparations have been made for forwarding a
further reinforcement of 15,000 men should the
Danes make any resistance.
In order to be prepared for the arrival and due
housing of troops in this city a commission has
been appointed. Their first step was a public
invitation to those inclined to remise troops in
their houses to send in their addresses and the num-
ber of men they were prepared to accommodate,
but the remuneration offered (12 schillings currency
per man per diem) was deemed so unsatisfactory
that but very few responded to the summons, so'
that it was found absolutely needful to raise the
price offered from 12 to 16 whiffing& This hag
succeeded better, and there are now quarters ready
and disposable for 5,000 men, which will nearly
cover the Austrians announced, and the rest will be
billetted in the surrounding villages.
The Prince of Augustenburg wanted very much
to remove his head-quarters and provisional seat
of government to this city—a proposal, however,
that was fortunately overruled in a most decided
manner by Austria and Prussia. He now talks of
removing to Brunswick.
General Fleury, Master of the Horse to the Em-
peror of the French, passed through this city yes-
terday on a special mission to the King of Den-
mark.

I believe I am justified iu announcing that the
Danish troops in Altona and other parts of Holstein
have received orders to retreat, on the approach of
the Federal troops, in a peaceable manner, and
without any hostile demonstration.

THE DWELLINGS OP THE POOR.

A meeting of gentlemen interested in the forma-
tion of a oompaay or association for improving the dwell-
ings of the pour in Norwich was held at the Guildhall,
in that city, on Wednesday; the Mayor (Mr. 0. Springfield)
In the chair. After some preliminary discussion, in the
cosine of whisk several speakers expressed their opinion that
the object of the proposed society should be to buy upend
improve old dilapidated and ruinous dwellings, the Bishop
of Norwich said the Ent pudical step would be to form an
amociatioa, and define the object it had in view, what amount
al capital would be required. and the amount of the shares in
which that capital should be taken. He thought that the
object cf the emaciation should be threefold—via the im-
provement of the dwellings of the better clan: of the
poor, then the improvement of the dwellings of the
very poor, and the establishment of lodgings for single
men. He had had a little experience of the matter in
Ladles with one or two associations formed there, which
had come very distloetly to the conclusion that the taking
up of a rumor building, or • building in a bad state of re-
pair, however important it might be to improve such pro-
perty, would sot prove remunerative after the
outlay. They also came to the conclusion that all sew
legs, except in very special localities, were failures in respect
to remumoratioa; but when they took blocks of hour in ea
alley, with the shell of the building substantial sod good,
then they found that, although there was a considerable
outlay in draining, repairing, and lighting, there was every
prospect al obtaining a very fair percentage. He had, how-
ever, always found it laid down by the beet authorities in
London, and at Windsor especially, that 10 per cant gross
return on the outlay was absolutely necessary to reader
such cottage property in any way remunerative to share-
holders, for from it moat be deducted at least one-half for
ontioinp sad expire*. He added, that be would move,
to facilitate proceedings, that a oompaay be formed for the
improvement of the dwellings of the labouring Glasses in
Norwich and it. vicinity. Sir J. P. Boileau 'wooded the
motion. Some discussion ensued as to the desirability of
calling the proposed body a " company," or an " aasw
dation," but a decision WIMP eventually arrived at in favour
of the former designation. After some further discussion
the resolution of the bishop was carried unanimously. Sir
J. P. Boileau remarked that the object of the company was
experimental; if it were socceseful, more speculative per-
sons would take the matter up commercially.

NEW DIPLOMATIC APPOINTMENTS.
RETIREMENT OF BARON GROS.
PA RlB, Ocr. 14.

The Moniteur of this morning says :—" The death
of M. B;Ilault causes a sorrowful emotion through-
out France. His decease is an immense loss to
the state as well as to the Emperor, whom he served
with equal devotedness, talent, and eloquence."
The following diplomatic appointments have beon
made :—As French Ambassador to the Court of St.
James's, M. de Latour d'Auvergne, who will be
replaced at Rome by M. de Sartiges. Baron de
Malaret will fill the place of the latter at Turin.
The Marquis Ferribre de Levsyer will go as Am-
bassador to Brussels, M. Meet to Hanover, and
the Marquis 4PAntorme to Nassau.
The Emperor has addressed the following letter
to Baron Gros :—" At a time when you intended
to retire from public service, your devotion induced
you to accept the office of ambassador at London.
You have thus acquired fresh rights to my good-
will. Circumstances now permit me to relieve you
of this post; but, before giving you a successor, I
wish to say how glad I have been to crown your
long and honourable career by a testimony of my
confidence."

AUSTRIA.
VIENNA, Ocr. 13, EVENING.

The Oat Deutsche Post of this evening calls for
a congress empowered to settle the Polish question.
Should such • congress declare that Russia had
forfeited all right to Poland, Austria might
adhere to this decision, and even calmly see the
approach of war, as in that case she would only
be carrying out the judgment of Europe.
The Oat Deutsche Post thinks that a congress would
deliver the three powers from the painful position
in which they are now placed, of being forced to
reserve the expression of their offended dignity
during tire months of winter, with the prospect of
warlike eventualities in the spring. A congress
would clear up the situation, would determine
what resolutions should be taken, and might, in
cue of success, bring about the averting of war.
The Emperor Francis Joseph returned to Vienna
this morning.

NAPLES.

For some days the great hall of the asaize court
at Vicaria, Naples, has been crammed with specta-
tots to witness the trial of the Princess &lam Bar-
berini and the Chevalier Quattromani. The princess
has been acquitted, her line of defence being iguo-
ranoe of the nature of the letters which she bad been
requested to convey to Rome. With Quattromani
the affair was different, as it was he who gave the
princess the letter in cipher which chiefly incul-
pates her. He is sentenced to ten years' imprison-
ment and • fine of 500 fr.

The Duchess Casalnuovo was daily in court with
the princess.

The Polish deputy Smolike, President of the
Diet of Vienna in 1848, bas made an attempt upon his life.
Although sincerely devoted to the cause of Poland, Dr.
Smoltka disapproved of the insurrection, sod especially of
the part taken by his fellow-countrymen in Galicia. Several
of the latter made him the object of their attacks, and
treated his moderatton as treason. These attacks were
keenly felt, and it was under the Mance of the feelings
thus caused that be made the attempt. Titers L some hope
that his life may be saved.
