FROM THE MAINE, SEPT. 7.
We hear that some disturbances have taken place at Coburg.
The pet.pie have lima since entertained a very bad opinion of one
of the Duke's favourites, a Pole by bath ; and at last they have
considered this man as the chief cause of serious differences be.
tocen the Prince and his consort (a Princess of Saxe Uotha). In
consequence of these differences. the Princess went to an estate in
the neighbourhood. These circumstances were scarcely known
when the mass of the people took a decided part in fascia of the
Princess, who is universally beloved. They repaired in a crowd
to the aliove.ntentioned Name, took the horses from the carriage,
which was ready to proceed further, and brought the carriage, with
the Duchess in it, in triumph back to the capital. They then,
forced in entrance into the Prince's palate, whither the favourite
had retreated, and demanded bath that proper satisfaction should
be made to the Prioress' told that the favmmte should be given up.
Ft is reported thou the Duke himself was so pressed on by the
crowd, that he was obliged to take hold of one of the leaders to
makes way through them, and that the military chewed no great
zeal in dispensing the crowd. IA the end tranquillity was restored
