THE MARRIAGE OF PRINCESS ALICE.

(Frost the Court Jouneal.)
Her Majesty's gift to the Princess Alice is a
beautiful bithelet studded with peirle and diamonds, with
the likeness of the Queen and the Prince Consort, set
round with pearls and diamonds; on the top the royal
coronet, and at the bottom the likenesses of the Primer
Alice and the Prince Louis, with their monopsms. The
Queen also pp to the pnocan with three nap, which
are in accordance with the prevailing fashion of gifts at peat
weddings, namely, • ring of diamonds, one of emeralds, and
one of rubies We believe the production of these thef-
t!' ammo of jewsller'a work was intrusted to a great home

sear lisnovirequare.
The Priam of Wales's present to his sister on her mar-
riage is a gime, or bodice, of emerslde and diamonds, and
• tiara of the same precious stones. The royal bridesmaids
preesat • tea service of silver gilt. The Prises Consort's
presents were prepared lest year, before December ; they con-
sisted of two braestets, a splendid brooch, and • tiara of
11 diamonds and emeralds. We believe her Royal !Darer
the Prince. Royal will present the Prim:sea Alio& with •
handsome ebony dressing-case, ornamented and lined
throughout with the richest silk velvet, fitted with highly-
chased, engraved, and engine-turned gold•mounted arterial,
the crown and cipher elaately worked on etch. It was
made by Mr. West, of St. James's-street.
Soon after the marriage the prince and primes will leave
Osborne for St. Clare.

The death of the arand Dachau of Hesse has, it seems,
caused some change in the plans and arrangements of
Prince Louie and the Princess Alice ; for there moms to be
' no doubt now that the prince and princess will reside for
some time in the year, if not permanently, at Darmstadt,
where, indeed, a residence is being prepared for their re-
ception. Their first sojourn will be, however, at Frogman.
A considerable portion of the trousseau of Princess Alice is
' already packed up for transmission to the Continent.
The foreign royal family to be present at the wedding as
the Ist of July will be the Crown Prince of Prussia, hums
and Princess Augusta of Sam-Coburg, Duke and Duchess
of Saxe-Cohen and Gotha, Prises and Princess Charles of
Hesse, Prince Henry of Hew, and Prince William and
Princess Alma of Hesse.
_ . . . .

'We und7;sland that, is coesequence of the strict privacy
with which the royal marriage ceremony will be performed
on Tuesday next, that the princess will only be attended to
the altar by bridesmaids of the royal family--namely, the
Primer Alice's three sisters and the Princess Anna of
Hesse. . . .

We haw that in conseqoasios of the indisposition of the
Archbishop of Canterbury, the Archbishop of York will
officiate at the marriage of the Princess Aline and Prime
Louis of Hesse.

I:ITEST INT4GENOL

RUSSIA.
The incendiarism in Russia is spreading from
St. Petersburg to the provinces. At Tiflis, on the
18th of May, ten houses have been burnt ; at
Mobilew on the 9th twenty houses, at Czernichow
on the 11th forty-four houses, 133 shops, and the
church. Acts of incendiariam at Novgorod are
reported, but details are wanting.
Among the numerous arrests which have been
made, much is said respecting the disappear-
ance of Colonel Rattoffsof, aide-de-camp of the
Emperor. Re is accused of being affiliated to the
secret societies, and in correspondence with " the
Korokol." What adds to the sensation produced
by this incident is the fact that the colonel, now
pointed to as a revolutionist, is the son of the gene-
ral who by his revelations rendered the insurrection
of 1826 abortive, and who was thenceforth always
the devoted confidant of Nicholas.

ROME.

A letter from Rome says :

It appears certain that Y. de Lavalette is directed to
place the following before the Vatican :-1. The goverment
of the Emperor is Mall disposed to guarantee to you Rome
end the Camp•gna. 2. Are you willing that we should
stipulate for an arrangement between Italy and you
on that basis? 3. Would you prefer • congress
of the catholic powers? From the manner in
which these ideas ere presented they may Hirer
novel. In reality there is nothing but the old project of the
Guerronni4e pamphlet, to which the cardinal still replies,
"We cannot enter into any arrangement with Piedmont
until it has restored what it has taken from us. We have
been confirmed in this course by the meeting of
bishops, and we adhere to it more than ever. As
for your guarantee, and the guarantee of the
powers, to prevent Piedmont from going any fur-
ther, we wish for it, and we thank you for it before-
hand. A congress is desirable, but we would not
accept its conclusions if they were not in conformity with
our rights. A oongrees intending to do justice to the Holy
See we desire ; • mamas intending to accept accomplished
fads, though it might guarantee to us Rome and the
Campagna, we refuse.•
