LETTER FROM THE LATR) MIRE OF LEUCHTENBERG TO THE

' LINO OP SWEDEN, DATED 27TH JANUARY.
" Sire,—You are a father, and a very tender father, to
my sister. Your Majesty cannot be indifferent, and I am
certain you are not, to what concerns her brother. I there-
fore consider it as one of my first duties to acquaint your
Majesty of my marriage with the Queen of Portugal. It
was celebrated yesterday, in the Cathedral of Lisbon, amidst
the acclamations of the people, which indeed affected me,
but which I shall not take into account till I am conscious
of having deserved them ; and I shall henceforth exert my-
self to the utmost to justify them. I request your Majesty
to accept with kindness the assurances of the respect and
sincere attachment with which I have the honour to be
your Majesty's most attached and devoted servant,
DON AUGUSTUS."

HIS MAJESTY'S ANSWER.

" My esteemed Brother and Cousin,—The letter which
announces the marriage of your Royal Highness with the
Queen of Portugal has been given me by my daughter. I
thank you for calling me the father and very tender father of
your sister. Her eminent qualities and exalted mind make her
dear to me, and to the inhabitants of both the Scandinavian
kingdoms. The acclamations which you have received in Lis-
bon, and which your noble and affectionate heart has appre-
ciated, are a happy omen of your future glory, the founda-
tion of which will be laid by perseverance, I most sin-
cerely think, that it may for centuries to come, indemnify
Portugal for the evils with which time has afflicted that
nation, so celebrated for its great deeds. I sincerely con-
gratulate your Royal Highness on your union with a Prin-
cess, who is equally interesting, on account of her personal
qualities, and the dangers and changes of fortune which
surrounded her childhood. I also congratulate you on having
been called by the general wish of the nation, and the in-
afination of the Queen, your consort, to contribute to re-
pair the misfortunes of Portugal. But you already know
the cares indispensably connected with your eminent sta-
tion ; and I, the' efore, cannot doubt that you are prepared
for the obstacles and difficulties that you will experience in
your plans for restoring order, by maintaining tranquility,
and promoting obedience to the laws—the chief, and indeed
the only guarantee for the rights and liberties of a people.
I am with distinguished esteem your Royal Highness's
affectionate

"Brother and Cousin,
" CHARLES JOHN."

GERMAN PAPERS.

DARMSTADT, APRIL 27.—The Session of the Assembly
of the Estates was opened this morning by his Royal
Highness the Grand Duke in person with a speech from the
Throne, of which the following are some of its principal
passages :—" I have already openly declared my resolution
with respect to the Addresses of the two Chambers of the
late Diet that were presented to me. I firmly trust that
the present Diet will lead to many improvements in the state
of the country which I have in contemplation, and for which
I need your co-operation. Among them is the speedy
completion of the projected provincial roads, which may be
effected in a few years without increasing the sums at pre-
sent allotted to this purpose. It would be a great satisfac-
tioh to me if I could give to all parts of my country such
complete and extensive means of communication as others
have long enjoyed. I recommend this subject to your
particular attention, and intend to have a plan laid before
you. Another subject, the abolition of ground-rents, also
claims my care. The abolition of all personal burdens,
and of those imposed on land, which check the improve-
ment of agriculture, is partly effected by our legislation, and
in part far advanced, and though the ground-rent in itself
cannot be considered as a direct impediment to the free use
of the soil, yet it will be in many respects useful if that also
can be gradually abolished by legislative measures, and the
land be wholly relieved from such burdens ; I know, at
least, that this is the ardent wish of many of my subjects.

willingly offer my co-operation, and have therefore ordered
this subject, which is certainly attended with great difficul-
ties, to be taken into consideration. I hope that a plan
calculated to attain the object will be presented to you
during the present Diet. I cannot refrain from again ex-
pressing my satisfaction at the happy results which have
already been produced in all parts of the country by the
institution of the Agricultural Society. It is for you to
consider whether these results may not be greatly extended
by additional support from the public treasury. Manufac-
tures claim, however, the attention of the Government as
much as agriculture, and a similar institution for their sup-
port seems to be called for, and might be established at a
less expense than has been devoted to the first-mentio.ned
institution. I caused proposals to be made to preceding
Diets, respecting the measures which I think necessary fol.
the better regulation of public instruction, from the univer-
sity to the elementary schools. I have complied with the
wish expressed in the late Diet, that the salaries of the
members of the courts of justice should be definitively fixed."
His Highness alluded to the extension of the German
Commercial Union, by the accession of one or more of the
States. " Among the happy events of our times," he
added, " is that the bond which unites the States of Ger-
many is drawn closer, and that the Confederation is becom-
ing more and mere an independent national power, which
is strong enough to defend itself against all enemies, both
foreign and domestic, and which founds its strength chiefly
on respect for the acquired rights and well-formed relations
of the people and the Governments. Unhappily we have
now to deplore the loss of one of the first founders of the
Confederation, whose constant care was devoted to its con-
solidation and improvement. To this venerable Monarch,
who closed the long line of German Emperors, but whom
Germany, after he had laid down his crown, continued to
love and revere as a father, I and my house were too
closely attached by the bonds of consanguinity, friendship,
and affection, and to his Imperial House by the recollections
of centuries for me to refrain from expressing on this occa-
sion my profound affliction at his loss.
With respect to mySelf, gentlemen, you will always
find me ready to lend a favourable ear to all reasonable
wishes—to adopt all measures which, without impairing
the efficiency of the Government, or disturbing order in
the State, may serve to banish distrust between the Go-
vernment and the people—to promote the permanent good
of my country, and diffuse satisfaction, founded on rea-
sonable bases. From you, on the other hand, I promise
myself, above all things, confidence and support in my
well-meant intentions, as your zeal for the public good is
a pledge to me, that, notwithstanding the importance and
variety of your labours, you will, by unabating activity—
by avoiding all unnecessary digression and procrastination,
—contribute to shorten the duration of the Diet."

VIENNA, APRIL '25. - Their Royal Highnesses the
Grand Duke and Duchess set out yesterday for Berlin.—
Frankfort Paper, April 29.

The Northern Bee announces that the Grand
Huntsman of the'Emperor of Russia, M. Demidoff, has lately
bought one of the finest diamonds known, -the Sanci, for
500,000 f. This diamond weighs 53i grains. Sometime ago
Ali Pasha bought a diamond weighing 49 grains for 760,000 f.

Mr. O'CoNNELL stated that he had something to men—
tion personal to himself. Of all the abusive attacks that
had ever been made upon him, that recently volunteered by
a Mr. D'lsraeli, the unsuccessful Tory candidate at Taun-
ton, was the most reckless, unprovoked, snd unwarrantable.
All that he knew of this Mr. D'lsraeli was, that he had
sent to him (Mr. O'Connell), in 1831, to write a letter in
his favour to the electors of Wickham, for which he was a
candidate on the Radical interest. On that occasion he
was unsuccessful, as well as in a subsequent attempt as a.
Radical in Marylebone. Since then be had made some at-
tempts to get into Parliament as a Tory, and certainly no
one was so fit for the Tory faction as a man who had been
twice rejected by the Radicals.
