DEBTS OP HER 10I4L HIGHNESS THE

DV'CH2I7B If 02L.E4N8.

We deeply regret to announce the death of her
Royal Hipftmes the Rochess d'Oritens, which estimable
and piens primers expired yesterday morning shortly after
6 dale* at her neldence at Richmond, to the inexpressible
pit r i bar some, the Coast de Paris and the Duke de Char-
ism. sad the ether numbers of the exile royal family of
runes.

The denies of her Royal Highness is a deep affliction to
the ex-Queen Amalie, and her chief immolation under the
mournful airceusetanoes to the presence of the Duke de

'Nemours, the Duks and Duohie; &Alumni., and Prince and
Prinoess Joinville, who with their hinnies an residing at
Twkkenham and Clammed. The lamented event was quite
unexpected. The Dachas only a fortnight sines dined at
the Marquis of Lansdowne's, and was apparently in the
possession of excellent health and spirits.
The deceased lady, Hahn Louisa Elizabeth, daughter of
the late Hersditarr Grand Duke of Mecklenburg-Schwerin,
was born in 1814, and on the 30th May, 1837, was married
to the eldest son of King Louis PhOlpps, Ferdinand Duke
of Orleans, then in the 27th year of his age. That prince
met with an sccidental death on the 18th of July, 1842,
leaving two children, of whom the elder, Louis Philippe
Albert d'Orisans, Cants de Pada, born &mpg 24, 1838, is
the preset hair of Orleanid pretensions to the French throne;
the younger, Louie Charles, Dna de Chartres, wee born
in 1840. The duchess was, by Louis Philippe in his ad
of abdication on the 24th of February, 1848, appointed
reardian to the two sons of the Duke of Orleans and regent
of the French kingdom. She behaved with great courage
and dignity upon that =lain, making her way through en
armed and infuriated mob to the Chamber of Deputise, to
whom she appealed in vain for the recognition of her eon's
title to the crown. The repatMe having been proddiated,
she quitted the French territory. The confiseatkaof the
Orleans property by Louie Napoleon, and tbe spirited protest
which that measure elicited from the dulled, who retuned
to accept the pension with which the Emperor proposed to
endow her, are matters of recent biddy.
