THEIR ROYAL HIGHNESSES THE PRINCE AND
PanicEse or CAruA.—Letters from Malta, just received by
the overland mail announce the arrival at that island on the
sth March, from Naples, of the Commendatore Stahly, one
of the secretaries of the royal household of his Majesty the
King of the Two Sicilies, accompanied by the Cavalier
Agresti, the procurator-general of the Supreme Tribunal of
the Kingdom, specially dispatched by his Majesty with over-
tures of reconciliation to his royal brother Francesco Bor-
bone, Prince of Capua and Count of Mascali. These royal
commissioners lost no time in seeking an interview with the
Prince, but from their not having availed themselves of a
banker's credit, which one of the parties had on Malta to a
emery considerable amount, it is very generally rumoured that
the terms offered were not such as his royal highness with
any.;

Princess, but offered

extent of his
British na, y, who had been upwards of thirty
and where, such was the
dant at Tripoli,
gratuitous attendance on the indigent, that the mournful
event cannot but be looked upon as a great public calamity,
and, happentlg as it did at the very instant the first gun an-
nounced tte anniversary of the birth of the Prophet, not a
few of the Diahomedans rogard the event with a supersti-
tious awe. On lie Ist of March the remains of the lamented
decesird were interred in the Protestant cemetery, which is
distant about two miles from the town, escorted by a military
guard of honour, sent by order of his Excellency the Paella,
and followed, not only by every foreign consul, but by all
the European residents of every class, and by several thou-
sands of Jews and Mahomedans, and so anxious were many
whom he had attended professionally to pay this last tribute
of respect to his memory, that they actually rose from their
beds of sickness and joined the mournful procession, which,
whilst it passed along the crowded streets, heard the shrieks
and cries of the natives bewailing his death issuing from the
miserable hovels which he had been wont to enter to prescribe
fa' suffering humanity. Ile has left a widow and large
family to deplore his loss.
