Prince of Denmark, who was married to a daughter
of the Duke of Meeklenhorg,was called from home
by military duties. He had scarcely been gone
three slays when it was discovered that a French-
man of the name of Dupuis, who was a ball toas-
ter, and aim had been chosen to instruct die Prin-
cess in singing, had been perceived going into her
apartments at a late hour in the night. A
was platard to watch his return, and :it four in the
nusroulg be was secu leaving the Princess's bcd-
t omit .
" An siprees was immediately dispatched to the
Prince, to make him eciseinteil with the eircutn-
',Lice, and. on egarniumg the l'rineess, she con-
fessed her guilt.
" Dupuis was instantly sent, under an escdrt. to
Lubeck, never to return to Denmark,- under pain
of death. The Princess has since been sent to Al-
tuns. Messengers have been dispatched tc all
quieter., to apprise her relations of her couduct,
and a divorce ia expected to take place.
" This mime 'Dupuis was some years ages in the
Swedish seri ; but his conduct was so infamous,
that he was .160 banished from that couutry."

Walcheren, ditches five, six, or more feet wide, and
very deep, hare been Jug, as fences, between every
field. All of them, except a very few among the
email hills, constantly contain stink* water.
The au; of spring tides falls above twenty feet
beim the level of the land. Consequently, by
pnasing through the (hikes, wtroden4w other pipes,
of sufficient dimensions, opening into the sea near
low water-work. with a stop. valve .at their exit,
