the melancholy intelligence to the Queen and the
Prince. His Royal Itighntsa Prince Albert, at-
tended by his equerry in waiting, immediately pro-

o'clock, and then returned to Buckingham Palace,
attended by I.:tint:Colonel the Hon. A. Gordon.
Her Royal Highcess the Duchess of Gloucester re-
mained some time longer with her afflicted re-

Mr. Edmund Mildmay, equerry to his late royal
highness, is staging at Dover, to attend her Royal
Highness the Hereditary Grand Duchess of Mecklen-
berg Strelitz (daughter of his late royal highness) on
her landing, the hereditary grand duchess having
been sent for from the Continent.

We are informed that hia royal highness was
attacked by indiipositien on the liith ult., with cramp
in the stomach; but after the severity of the attack
had passed away, all danger was thought as over.
The royal duke was attended by Dr. Francis Haw-
kins, Dr. Bright, Dr. Watson, Mr. Keate, and Mr. J.
Kingworth ; and it was judged, up to within the
last four days, that he would recover, although
suffering from loss of appetite asd much debility.
The duke recently became so debilitated and pros-
trated, not being able to sustain any nourishing sub-
stance, that he continued to sink rapidly during the
last four and twenty hours before hie death.
The Duchess of Cambridge, who, during her royal
husband's illness his evinced the greatest solicitude.
was at the bedside of his Royal Highness up to the
minute of his dissolution, and it is nei diem to observe
is in a distressed state of mind at her irreparatle be-
reavement. Prince George of Cambridge, on leave
of absence from his military duties in Ireland,
was also present at the death of his father. The only
member of the late royal duke's family absent from
this country (but to whom intelligence of his serious
illness was forwarded last week), was his eldest
daughter (the Princess Augusta), at present with her
tusbind, the Hereditary Grand Duke of Mecklen-
burgh Strelitz, in Germany.
A royal messenger was despatched to Lord John
Russell with the fatal news shortly after the royal
duke expired; also to Viscount Palmerston, by whr m
a cabinet courier was to be sent to the King of
Hanover, the King of the Belgians, the Hereditary
Grand Duke of Mecklenburgh Strelitz, and the other
connexions of the royal family in Germany.
