MARCfI 31,

7'!IL ROY.: 1, FAMILY.

In consequence of the lung indisposition of the Prince
Regent, and •he arrival of his Fo'-• Highness in Loinln,
on Wednesday night, Carlton T-V.llfle W;IS on Thursday
thronged from soon after ten o'cl,,ek till near six. The
company was so numerous a en•e tiro•, that the doors
of the grand hall were obliged to be thrown open, to ad-
mit the inquirers. They corsisted of the Royal Dukes,
the Cabinet Ministers, the Foreign Anilrassudors and Mi-
nisters, and several of the Judges.
The Queen's visit to town, on Wednesday, was chiefly
for the purpose of receiving his Royal Highness the
Prince Regent, who dined at Buekin,sham house on
Thursday.

_
Thursday his Royal Highness the Prince. Regent held
Council at Carlton House, which was attended by all
the Ministers. After the Council ho gave audience to
Lord Castlereagh and the Earl of Liverpool, and received
the Wrortler's report. It is fixed, we understand, that
the Ceremonial of the marriage between the Princess
Charlotte of Wales and Prince Leopold of Saxe-Cobourg
will be solemnised by the Archbishop of Canterbury on
the Oth of next month at Carlton House, previously to
which the Queen will hold a drawing-reom fin. the.
introduction of Prince Leopold, at whim the Princess
Charlotte of Wales is expected to be present.
Tile welding dresses for the Princess Charlotte are
ordered by the std of April.
The Queen and Prinesss's dresses are in readiness for
the mar -law of the Princess Charlotte.
The Duke of Kent has, we understand, in the ►cost
liberal and handsome manner lent his House at Castlebar,
to her Royal Highness the Princess Charlotte, for three
years as a country residence.
The Bill which was passed in both Houses, in so ear.
eon' a manner, on Wednesdey, was, it seems, not the Bill
for the actual naturalization of Prince Leopold, but a pre-
paratory one fi,r dispensing with the forms prescribed by
an Act, relative to the introduction of such Bills, in ge-
neral cases. The final Bill was introduced on Thursday
and passed with the same speed as the firmer. It eon.
tains a clause fbr fixing the place of his Highness in the
selle of precedency ; but, as the Bill was not read at
full length, it is not certainly known what that will be—
prolrably next to the Duke of Gloucester.
The fidlowing arrangements arc stated to have been
suggested by his Royal Highness the Prince Regent, for
the marriage:-
1. The precedent of her Royal Highness the Duchess
of Brunswick to be strictly tidlowed, in consequence of
which, no distinction of the Royal Familyof England is to
be continued to her Royal Highness the Princess Charlotte,
and area the Royal Liveries are not to be worn by
her servants, but these of the illustrious House of Co-
bourg to be substituted in their room
2. The Prince of Cobourg to he created Duke of
Kendal, by which creation her Royal Highness the
Princess Charlotte of NVales, Heiress Presumptive to the
Throne, will become Duchess of Kendal, a title only
known in this country by having been borne by the Ger-
man l'rincess of George I.
A letter from Cobourg, of the 13th March. states, that
an English Courier arrived there a few days heforz, with
letters to her Serene Highness the Duchess Dowager of
Saxe-Cobourg, from her Majesty the Queen of England,
and her Royal Highness the Princess Charlotte of Wales,
written with their own hands, relative to the marriage of
Prince Leopold, her son.
The Princess of %Vales was, at the date of the last ac-
counts from her, at Palermo, in Sicily. Air article from
Milan, in the fbrei;_ai papers, state—" We learn from
Como, that the limp& ror of Austria visited the curiosities
of that city, and among; others the villa of the Princess of
Wales, which his Majesty admired greatly. The agents
of the Princess have received orders to hasten the fittings
up, so that they may be finished in a mouth, when she
will return. Upwards of 500 workmen are consequently
employed in the palace and gardens. The most celebrat-
ed painters have been sent for from every part of Italy."

A few days ago a Deputation from the Wine Trade
waited upon the Chancellor of the Exchequer with a Pe-
thm for a diminution of the duties on wines. Thcy
stated, that the revenue would be benefitted by such
measure, inasmuch as the consumpthm would be increas-
ed in proportion to the cheapness of the article, Mr..
Vansittart appointed Wednesday for the Deputation to
receive their answer ; when he expro.sed his determina-
tion not to mate any alteration whatever in the duties,
because he could not in the actual situation of the coun-
try, consent to lower the duty on any article of luxury,
although the prufessed elljeet might be an inerca.se ef re-
venue.

A letter has been received in town from an officer on
iy)ard his Majesty's ship Theban, dated St. Helena, or
which the following is an extract:—" We sailed front
India the 22d of last NLvember. Oa our pas sago we lay
at the Cape of Good Hope three weeks, from whence we
proceeded to St. Helena, whrc we continued three days.
Bonaparte has got a number I.f persons front his Majesty's
ship Northumberland, 74, with the consent of the Ad-
miral. He also wanted in his service eight able seamen,
and one of the ship's boats to amuse himself round the
Wand, but th t.t immediately refthed.-
