what too much of Ibis; that Isar Royal Highness neve' dashed
that remark and astonishment by her dress led conduct, which
some fair English Ladies have since done is the same Theatre,
I can assert.
* Her Royal Highness for several months remained at Na-
ples, during which time she was invariably received with every
testimony of respect at the Court and st the mmainans of the
most distinguished Neapolitan families. Among tke Ladies
with whom she was most familiar were the Princess of Cassano,
the Marchioness of Gallo, (wife of the Minister for Foreign
Affairs), the Marchioness of Cavaleanti, and the Duchess of
Sant' Arpino.
" Her way of living, during her residence in that delightful
capital, was on the whole retired ; her charities were incessant,
and nothing seems to have been wanting to procure her High-
ness's assistance but the claim of real want and infelicity.

" Her Royal Highness left Naples attended with the respect
and good wishes of the most respectable part of the community,
and the prayers and blessings of many whom she had relieved in
the hour of want or on the bed of sickness.

" I afterwards met with her Royal Highness one evening at
the Theatre of Pesaro. Her Royal Highness was in a front boa
of the Theatre, and seemed to participa:e in the wit and cha-
racter of the piece (a Comedy of Goldoni's) in such a manner u
could only be felt by a person who had well studied Italy and
its inhabitants. The audience paid her a very marked respect.
" From this time I did not see her Royal Highness until one
morning that I met her in the streets of Milan. In that city,
the most polished and literary of Italy, she was everywhere re-
ceived with a respect due to her rank, and a reverence and
affection which only her great talent and superior beneficence
and virtue could ensure.

" In my excursions afterwards on the Lake of Como, I have
frequently seen her Royal Highness sailing in a little boat, with
a book in her hand, and a Lady by her side. In my wanderings
round that interesting country. I have heard the name of " La
Principessa d'lnghikerra" (Princess of ,England) echoed with
respect; and in the cottage of the poor that name was ever fol-
termed by the aspiration of gratitude, and prayers for her happi-
ness and longevity."

We shall probably have some curious facts brought
out in the cross-examination of Mademoiselle Dimont
to-day, for this lady is not a new importation; she has,
it seems, been in England for thirteen months ; and
though she could not speak or understand English
in the House of Peers yesterday, could, anywhere
else, understand others, and make herself understood
in that language. We are also informed—and the
cross-examination will probably chew, whether cor-
rectly or otherwise—that this Lady, on sonic occa-
sions at least, is no mean individual—nothing less
than a !'oarless!!
