AK had for chid object the settlements necessary
tl/ raider the marriage equally productive of. happi-
nesi to the Princess and het future spouse, and of
gratification to every 'genuine British bosom. Our
Readers already know, that %he Prince LEoptto, a
younger son of the illustrious Prince of SAXE Co-
Gotha, is the destined Bridegrooms He is about
twenty-five years of age, of the Protestant religion,
and pot only a handsome, but what is much bitter;
is virtuous,.ctnlightencd, and accomplished young man.
—His deportment is mild, )aolenahre, and• modest,
and his keen sense of the honour whith on,ht to per-
vaac the breast of every Gentleman, cannot be Letter
illustrated than by the following trait in the history
of his courtship, and for the perfect accuracy of which
we can voutn :

roe first personal interview betwe'n the illustrious
patties wok place in the Sutiuner of 1814, whoa the
Metropolis was filled with the Royal and Noble
Visitors from the Continent. On that occasion his
Highness was the bearer of a letter from the late
Dyke of BRUSSeIeIC Okt.3 to his Cciusin the Princess

Cisanwere. His pleasing neannert.produced an ins
vitiation from the Princets, with the ghost perfect arsi
probation of the Ladies of her establishment to repeat
Ills' visits, as a tea-table companion, at Warwick
House. The instant that Prince LEOPOLD thought
he discovered that his company was agreeable to the
PSiscess, he waited upon the PIUKCIS Runner, and in
the most manly and candid manner., stated the cif-
cumsunces in which he was placed as delicately as
he sould. His Highness then added, that qi proud
as be would be of such an illustrious alliance, he
came to take the commands of his Royal Highness
to quit the country instantly if his prosecution of the
affair did not meet with the entire and cordial ap-
probation of his Royal Highness." The answer was
what might have been expected fronS the dictates of
a generous and magnanimous breast. The PAUNCH
Recants gave his sanction to the continuance of an
intercourse which was commenced and carried on
upon such honourable principles.
From this pet iod down to the present, the mutual
attachment first conceived, has been strengthened by
a more unrestrained intercourse, which has neverthe-
less been conducted with se much prudence and good
sense on both sides, that until very lately, only those
in their most intimate confidence, knew of the exist-
ence of any particular feelings of the parties towards
each titian ..

Oae part of du proposed arrangements at least

artist be peculiarly pleasing to our .rlstional feelings:
the Princess Cuancorra of Warm has etpressly sti-
isurattd that she shall never be taken out of the cu. tut-
'
try without her full and tree consent.

Indeed, such is the aversion of her Royal Highness
to quit England, that we are now at perfect liberty to
state, that the match with the Prince of ORANGE.
however desirable in other respects, must have sub-1
jetted the feelings of her Royal Highness, by a con-1
strained residence, for part of the year, in Belgium,
to the humiliation of being personally under the con-
ttoul of a foreign Government. In this respect her
feelings are truly British, and they must infallibly
rivet more deeply her claims to the love, the admi-
ration, and the loyalty of her future subjects.
