' PRINCBNS OF WALES.
Some late communications from trait, on the sub-
ject of the Princess of WALL% stated, that her Royal
Highness had supposed that the Baron D'Osti.rena,
who was on his way from Hanover to Rome, had
lingered at Milan for the purpose of watching her
conduct ; and that, in tonsequence, an English Offi-
cer, in the suite of the P .lu/4/ems, had sent the baron
a challenge. The following curious particulars of
the affair have been publiihed
.4 An Hanoverian Baron was observed to fellow the
Princess's route wherever she went. He was always
received by her Royal Highness with the attention
due to his rank. C' the Princess's return to Milan
from her long voyage, the Baron was still there, and •'
paid his respects to iicr Royal Highness, as usual I
but reports having come to the ears of her House-
hold that the Baron had made use of expressions in
society highly injurious to her Royal Highness. one
of :lie Genz!emen in her suite, an English Officer,
sent the Baron a challenge, and this conveyed in terms
too plain and unequivocal f it misconstruction, as he
accused him of " a most infamous and Unmanly re•
turn for the kindnesses he had received from her.
Royal Highness;" and cslled upon bin .4 to meet
him at eight o'clock the next morning, at Bartassima,
(hall•way between Milan and Como,) there to an-
swer for this sacred charge agaiost Its fr:nour as a
gentleman, and a man who has Ever recetved the
most mat ked hospitality at the hands of -the Princesii
and who has committed the grear-st act of hostilit
against the very first of virtues." This chalks e •
was delivered to the Baron by the hands of the Bar
Cavalotti, a friend of the English Officer.
" The answer to this direct challenge was an at:
tempt to explain away tile charge imputed to him I
but an acceptance of the challenge, claiming his
right to the choice of weapons, and saying than hi
would fight in Switzerland, but that his intended se.
cond was absent ; in two days he would send h;al to
settle the time and place.
" Just at this period, a discharged servant oiler
Royal Highness wrote a letter to the Chief Magis-
tr
ate of Co:no, saying, that his conscience touched
him, and that he was desirous of making a confession
of the part he had acted in a treacherous confederacy
with this Hanoverian; in Whose pa) he had been for
the preceding ten months, to disclose to him every
transaction of the Household, to procure false keys
to her Royal Highness's apartments and drawers, Arc.
This was made known to her Royal Highness. She
mated all that he could have obtained by such insi.
ditto. mesias with c,iiatempt, and actually turf' the
10,1IMAti who had thus acted as a spy on her ac/ions
again into her service, on his imploring her ptr dos 1
but another accomplice was delivered over to the Poi.
I:ce, to be tried and punished.
44 The very day after this discovery, her Royal
Highness happened to give a great entertainment, at
which the Governor of Milan and all the principal
-Nobility were presetit. When the Princess tommtnai.
cared the whole affair to the Governor. He "ex-
pressed his indignation at the scan.ialous conducti
and having learnt that a challengehad passed from one
of her Gentiensen to the Baron, said, that certainty
the person was unworthy to be treated as a gent/matt:
44 The Hanoverian knew nothing of all this; bdt,
according to his promise, sent Count Cantenogh, one
of the Chamberlains to the Austrian Emperor, to
Como; who, having ;net the British Officer, said he
was not mach acquainted with the Hanoverian who
had requested him to be his second in an affair of hfa-
nour—that he was anxious to have the matter fully
investigated—and trusted, that it the Baron should
prove his innocence of the language imputed to him,
that the British Officer would be sati,fi d he had
acted hastily, &r.; but in case he WAR II a satisfied,
he was farther instructed to say, that the Baron
wished the meeting to he in Germany, on the confines
of France, instead of Switzerland; and the time could
not be convenient to him sooner than three weeks, a
month, or more, from that time, as he had to go td
Hanover to settle his attars in the interim.

" The Englishman then related to Count Cant&
nogh the disclosures that had been m.acle the•day be-
fore ; and sub:rained to him, whether such hehaviner
did hot render his principal unworthy the support of
A man of honour, or to be met 25 a gentleman ? The
Count declared, that he could not be the second of
such a person ; that he must justify himself from this
eularn us charge or choose another friend.
" With this the Count returned to M:lan ; and a
message was soon after ll:livered to her Royal High•
nest from the Governor, to say that the Hanoverian
Baron had received or fera to quit the Austrian due
(11.7111035, WIIIOI he had accordingly done."
