THE PAVILION AT BRIGHTON.—We stated last week
that 57 hampers of wine had been removed from the
Palace, and conveyed by railway to London. Since
that time further removals have taken place ; and, dur-

Our readers may gather from these facts that her Ma-
jesty does not intend to visit the Palace after her return
from Arundel, as was lately stated in the London papers.

We understand that Colonel Wylde is about to
proceed to Portugal, for the purpose of furnishing to
the Government information upon the state of the dis-
turbed districts in that country. Some addition, we
believe, will be made to the British fleet in the Tagus.
Although the state of affairs in Portugal may not be
such as to justify any apprehension that the tranquillity
of the country will be

due to the Government for the promptitude with which
they adopt such precaution as, without giving cause for

of which will be interesting, and of importance

the Ocean, from Rotterdam, 20 baskets, the growth of

weight of the article, the production of Normandy.
We believe that some other arrivals have taken place,
but the above are those which appear most deserving of
an especial notice.

communications by announcing the death of the lady.
