DON MIGUEL.

SALISBURY, JAN. 16.---The Portuguese Prince
Don Miguel passed through this city to-day, on his
route to Plymouth. His Royal Highness and suite
arrived (in five carriages) at the Prince Regent's
Hotel, about 'two o'clock in the afternoon, having
left Strathfieldsaye, the seat of the Duke of Welling-
tan, at ten o'clock in the morning. His Royal
Highness, was escorted into the cityby the Salisbury
troop of Yeomanry Cavalry; the church bells ruhg
a merry peal on the occasion, and at the Hotel every
preparation suitable for the reception of so illustrious
a personage was made by Mr. Johnson, whose at-
tentions were particularly noticed and acknowledged.
His Royal Highness's stay was, however, necessarily
short, as it was his intention to proceed without de-
lay. The Prince was accompanied by Lord Mount-
diaries, Sir Wm. Fremantle, &c. A numerous body
of persons, who were assembled in the front court-
yard of the Hotel, received the Prince with cheers,
and the band of the troop played the " Portuguese
Hymn," " God save the King," and other appro-
priate airs. Several officers of the line, resident in
the city, took the opportunity of paying their re-
spects to his Royal Highness. After partaking of
some refreshments, the party proceeded on their
route in the same order in
,which they arrived here.
The Salisbury troop escorted the. Prince out of the
city, and his Royal. Highness expressed to the com-
manding officer, Lieutenant Peniston,_ his acknow-
ledgments for the attention they had shown him.
The Prince, it is stated, posiesses a most excellent
disposition : and, it is :said, he feels highly gratified
with his .general reception in England; we may
therefore confidently trust, that when his Royal
Highness wields the sceptre of Portugal, which he
is shortly destined to do, those amicable relations
which have so long subisted between that kingdom
and Great 'Ffejtain will become more warm and du-
rable tban ever.

(From the Dorset Chronicle.)
On Monday last information was brought by a
King's Mesenger, to Messrs. Oliver, of the King's
Arms, Dorchester, that his Royal Highness, Don
Miguel would arrive here on' his journey to Ply-
mouth yesterday. This intelligence being rapidly
circulated in the town, the inhabitants were on the
qui vive last evening, to witness the arrival of this
illustrious visitor, who was to travel from Strath-
fieldsaye, the seat of the Right Hon. the Duke of
Wellington, and intended dining and sleeping at the
King's Arms. It was conjectured from various cir-
cumstances that his Royal Highness would arrive
soon after eight o'clock, and arrangements were con-
sequently made to afford him a reception fitted to the
high rank which he holds. These plans were, how-
ever, deranged by the sudden announcement, shortly
after six, that Don Miguel was on the point of enter-
ing the town. The bells were immediately rung,
and he was ushered into Dorchester, if not by a re-
gular cavalcade of soldiery, by the enthusiastic
cheers of an excited multitude. On reaching the
King's Arms, which was tastefully decorated, he
alighted, and immediately retired. The Prince was
attended by Count Villa Real, Earl Mountcharles,
Colonel Fremantle, the whole of his suite, &c. &c.
occupying in the whole five carriages. His High-
ness slept here, and proceeds this morning towards
Plymouth, from whence, we understand, he intends
sailing for Lisbon, as soon es the wind and weather
will permit.

(From the Plymouth Journal.)

The Worshipful the Mayor yesterday received a
communication► from Admiral the Earl of Northesk,
the Commander-in-Chief of this port, stating that
his Royal Highness Don Miguel would arrive in
Plymouth in the course of this day. His Royal
Highness was to sleep at Dorchester last night ; he
is attended by the following gentlemen of his suite,
viz., Le Comte De Villa Real, Le Comte De Mello,
Le Comtc De Saldanha, Le Comte De Camari,
and Le Comte Piere, his Secretary, and will be ac-
companied by the Earl of Mountcharles, Sir Wm.
Fremantle, &e. His Royal Highness will take up
his residence at Whiddon's Royal Hotel, where
apartments have been provided for him and his
suite, by order of his Majesty, through a special
messenger who arrived here on Monday night.—
His Royal Highness will remain until Sunday, when
he is expected to embark on board the Portuguese
frigate La Paula, wind and weather permitting.
His Royal Highness will dine on Friday and Satur-
day with the Earl of Northesk, after visiting the
Dock-yard, Breakwater, and other public works;
and we understand it has been signified to the pro-
per authorities, from a very high quarter, that
his Royal Highness shall be received with the
greatest possible honours, and treated with all the
respect due to a crowned head. The Mayor and
Corporation of this Borough intend paying their
compliments to his Royal Highness in their robes
and other paraphernalia of office, it being the first
instance of a Prince of the House of Braganza visit-
ing this town. His Royal Highness would have
taken up his abode at Saltram, had he arrived on
Sunday, as at first settled, hut Lord Morley being
obliged to leave for London, before the arrival of
the Prince, another arrangement became necessary.
It was next intended that his Royal Highness should
reside at Government House, Mount Wise, but on
inspection, the furniture was found unfit for the
Prince's use. The Royal Hotel was then fixed
upon as the readiest and most convenient place for
his Royal Highness's abode. Cards were issued
inviting a large number of the Nobility and Gentry
to meet the Prince at Saltram, on Tuesday evening,
but owing to the postponement of his Royal High-
ness's departure from London, the party did not
take place.

DEPLORABLE ACC ID EN - Yesterday morn-
ing Mr. J. GREENING, a highly-respected young man of
this town, went to Milborne St. Andrew, to see his friends.
Shortly after arriving there, be mounted a spirited younn,
horse for the purpose of hunting, but had not proceeded
far before the animal plunged so violently, as to throw Mr•
G. so forcibly against a tree, that his bead was dashed
almost to pieces,...DorJet Chronicle.
