~,,MARRIAGE OF THE PRINCE OF CAPUA.—
'llB Royal Highness Prince Charles Ferdinand of the Two
Owes was united yesterday morniug, at St. George's
acecrding to the rights of the Protestant Church, to
reneiope Smyth, now Princess Charles of the Two Si-
;"ea and Capua. The ceremony was performed by the Very
• the Dean of Carlisle, the rector of the parish. The
"ngregation of St. George's Church were asked on Sunday,
for the third time, whether any of them knew any just cause Or impediment why a marriage should not be solemnized
between Charles Ferdinand de Bourbon and Penelope Smyth?
The inaudible response was " No ;" but the banns on the
Sunday preceding were, we are informed, actually forbid by
• the Neapolitan Minister, Count Ludolf, attended by his Sec-
' retail', who advanced to the pulpit and said " Yes." A corn-
b;lluttication, it is understood, took place in the vestry-room
etween the Count and the rector, at which the former said
I,t was the will of the King of Naples that the marriage
' should not take place ; but the Rev. Gentleman refused to
rtertain the objection. A ludicrous circumstance occurred
uring the ceremony : the Prince's valet, who had been ens
,sted with the ring, was accidentally, shut Out by the beadle,
a ring was therefore borrowed on the spot from a by-
2nnder. The happy and princely Couple were congratulated
after the celebration of the sacra,.) rites by a numerous party
7, friends who were present, and then returned to Mivart's
hotel, where they gave° handsome ddeuner on the occasion.
loit7 Marquis of Ang,lesca, Lords Dunsany and Dunboyne,
Cadogan; -Count d'Aceto, the Spanish Charge
ISt "ire; and `;fiseount Combermere paid them congratu-
or.Y visits.— This is the fourth celebration ; the first at
132, 'Cardinal Weld; the second at Madrid; and the
11'" at Gretna-green.

a‘ooservative, is talked of as likely to opecst him ; and the
banes of Mr. Long Wellesley, jun, awl Mr. Branfill, have
t431l mentioned; indeed, placards were on Saturday issued,
Nitrig upon the electors to reserve their votes for the latter
elnart. Of course, if Mr. Conyers should appear on the
