LONDON, Nov. 26. INTENDED TCAXmZAGB or HER MAJESTY. 8INCE the year 1761, when, on the 8th of July, Kin,* C;eor<re the Third announced at a Meeting of his Privy Council his intended marriage with the Princess Charlotte of Mecklenburgh Strelitz, no meeting of that distinguished and important Body has excited so much of public interest as that which was held on Saturday at Buckingham Palace, and at which her Mapstv signified her intention to contract a marriage with his Royal Highness Prince Albert of Saxe Oobourg and Gotha. For some days rumours as to the object of the Meeting of the Privy Council had been publicly circulated, and, in consequence, before twebe o'clock, numbers of well-dressed persons, among whom were a large number of females, began congre- gating themselves in St. James's Park in the vicinity of the Palace. About half-past twelve a Guard of Honour, accompanied by the Band of the Coldstream Guards, entered the gates of the Palace, and took up a position on the lawn in front of the grand entrance. A body of police about the same time took charge of the gates, and kept a clear passage for the carriages as they arrived. Bv that time the assemblage had increased to several hundreds, among whom the surmises and an- ticipations as to the interesting object of the Meeting were most gratifying and amusing to those who heard them. At one o'clock the Yeomen, Exons, and Gentle- men Porters, took their respective stations in front, and under the Grand Portico, and shortly afterwards the Members of the Privy Council began to arrive. The first in attendance was the Farl of Albemarle, Master of the Horse, closely followed by Lord liurg- hersli, the Duke of Cambridge, and Duke of Devon- shire, & Lord Denman arriving the last (from the Court of Queen's Bench), just as the gates were closing, and as the clock was striking two. By that time the concourse of persons drawn to the scene by the fine- ness of the day and the novelty of the occasion had amounted to upwards of 2000, who lined the drive both from Constitution-hill and the Stable-yard. The re- ception experienced by the Members of her Majesty's Government from the assembled multitude was most flatteriilg t) their feelings, although a few hisses were heard in the distance, the utterers of which appeared to be persons of the lowest grades. Lord Melbourne, who was nearly the last that quitted the Palace, was loudly cheered by the majority of those present. The Hero of Waterloo," though apparently in good spirits, looked very pale and wan from his recent illness, was enthusiastically cheered both on his entering and leav- 1 ing the Palace, and Sir Robert Peel also came in for a share of lie good feeling of a small portion of the as- semblage, as did also his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge. About twenty minutes to three o'clock the Council broke up. and within a very short time afterwards the whole of the members quitted the Palace, Lord Melbourne being nearly the last. The crowd then began gradually to disperse but just as the clock had struck three, her Majesty's carriage, drawn by four horses, and followed by three other carriages- and-four, drew up at the grand entrance, together with an escort of the 14th Royal Hussars, from which it became evident to the assemblage that her Majesty in- tended taking her departure for Windsor. At pre- cisely twenty-five minutes past three o'clock, her Ma- jesty quitted the Palace. Her Majesty appeared in remarkably good health and spirits, and returned the. spontaneous congratulations of the assemblage with her accustomed condescension. During her progress up Constitution-hill, Hyde Park, Kensington, Ham- mersmith, &:c., the Queen was loudly cheered by the persons who lined the sides of the road. In the evening the following Extraordinary Gazette w as published, containing her Majesty's declaration to the Privy Council announcing her Majesty's intention to ally her.^jlf in marriage with Prince Albert of Saxe Co bourg ;uiu (Jot!)a. THE LONDON GAZETTE EXTRAORDINARY. SATCRDAY, NCV. 23, 1839. AT the Court at Buckingham Palace, the 23.) day of No- vembei-, 1839, present, the Queen's Most Excellent Ma- jesty in Council; His R.

G. S. Bjng, Dr. Lushington, Sir George Grey, bart., Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer, Mr. Macaiilay. Her Majesty being this day present in Council was pleased to rnik-: 'lie following Declarations, viz.:— j I have caused you to be summoned at the present time, in order that I may acquaint you with my resolution in a matter whidi deeply concerns the welfare of my people; and the hap- pines* of i>iv future life.. It is T'IY intention to ally myself in marriage with the Prince Albert of Saxe C'obourg and Gotha Deeply impressed with the solemnity of the engagement which 1 am about to contract, I I have not coma to this decision withont mature consideration, nor without feeling a strong assurance that, with the biessing of Almighty Co(I, it will at once secure my domestic feticityand serve the interests of my country. I have thought fit t»» mnke this resolution known to yon at t the earhest period, in order that you may be fully apprised of a matter so highlv important to me and to my kingdom, and which I persuade myself will be most acceptable toall my lovingsubjects." Whereupon, all the Privy Councillors present made it their humble request to her Majesty that her Majesty's most gracious Declaration to them might be made public which her Majesty was pleased to order accordingly. C. C. GREVILLE. The course thus taken was in conformity with the prece- dent adopted at the marriage of her Majesty's grandfather, George III., the ceremony connected with which was per- formed by the Archbishop of Canterbury, in the Royal Chapel of St. James's, in the presence of the Royal Family and a great number of the Nobility. The form of the cere- monial to be adopted on the present occasion will, of course, be hereafter arranged but it is not anticipated that the marriage will take place till the month of April. The mar- riage ceretmnv on the occasion of the marriage of King Georze the iii. was that contained in the Book of Common Priycr, T part of which seems to be not applicable to the marriage of a reigning Queen, whose husband will be her snbject, as it would appear to he rather anomalous that a lady should vow at the aitar to obey one who, by the very act of marriage, comes under her government as one of her subjects. As a foreigner Prince Albert owes no allegiance to the Queen, but as the husband of a Queen Regnant he is one of her subjects. Prince Albert is the second son of the Reigning Duke of Saxe Conourg and Gotha, and was born on the 26th of August, 1819, and therefore will not attain his 21st year till next August, and is three months younger than her Majesty. To a nation so justly distinguished for its high-toned loyalty, and the pure standard of its morals and religion, it cannot but be a source of the most unalloyed gratification to know that in this union with Prince Albert ofSaxe Cohourg Gotha, the personal felicity of our young, lovely, and gracious So- vereign has been identified and combined with the security of all other objects of inexpressible import to the constitu- tional rights anti prosperity of the empire. By the free se- lection of the man of her own choice, not unknown, unseen, and, as so frequent in Royal marriages, negociated by proxy, the domestic happiness of her Majesty has been assured, so far as by human means it could be assured, against the pos- sibility of doubt or distnibance; and this conviction must carry the most pleasing confidence to the minds of her faith- ful subjects of all classes and parties. Viewed in its more public and political aspect, there is every cause also for con- gratulation. Brought up in the strict tenets aud observances of the Protestant faith, the yoiwjg Prince will come no stranger into the bosom of the Protestant Church. His religious sympathies, equally with the.affections of his heart, will bind him up no less with the interests and feelings of the great community of which he is about to become one of the first and most distinguished citizens, than they will en- dear him to that August Sovereign who is the object of their homage and devotion as of his own. Descended in a right line from that eldest branch of the House of Saxony, which in the person of its Elector in the time of Charles V. forfeited dominions and sacrificed power rather than aban- don the truths of Protestantism and the cause of Luther, its champion, of whom he was the great protector, we have the strongest assurance in Prince Albert's connexion with the Crown, of a steadfast supporter of the national faith, and a bulwark, if need be, of the National Church. Educated at the great Piotestant University of Bonn, in Prussia, all ac- counts concur in describing him of gentle and unassuming demeanor, winning the affection of all around him-a nu- merous body of preceptors and associated students—active in the pursuit of knowledge, and equally accomplished in mind as in person. The accession of a young and high-born Prince of promise so fruitful to the home and hearth of our belove,l Queen, cannot, therefore, but be celebrated as a day of rejoicing and jnbilee for the people of an empire upon which it may be said the sun never sets. Her Majesty arrived at Windsor Castle a little before six o'clock, and was followed by Lords Melbourne, Errol, Al- bemarle, Duncannon, and Headfort, who arrived in time to join the dinner circle, which also included the Duchess of Kent, the Earl and Countess of Uxbridge, and the Ladies Elecuora and Constance Paget, Hon. C. A. Murray, and the Distinguished Members of her Majesty's suite. Her Majesty wore a brilliant bracelet OR Saturday at the Privy Council, on which was the portrait of Prince Albert. The Marquis of Lansdowne addressed a very complimentary speech to her when she had concluded hers, saying, that he was persuaded that the news of her approaching nup- tials would diffuse universal joy throughout the realm, and that be begaed her gracions permission to make the news public." The Queen bowed gracefully, and handed him ii r #;>ct"Cb. The Madrid journals of the 19th inst. have been re- ceived. They contain a Decree of the Queen Regent, dissolving the Cortes, the new Cortes to assemble on the 18th of February next The new Ministry is re- composed, who have issued along Manifesto, in which they pledge themselves to the nation faithfully to uphold the constitution of 1837 So loner as the Constitution of 1837 is made the pass-word of the armv, the Govern- ment can rely upon the fidelity of the troops. In the meantime the cry against the payment of taxes, unless sanctioned by the Cortes, was re-echoed from province to province throughout Spain. The tranquillity of Madrid was supposed to be owing to the presence of a large military force in and near that capital. The list of the new Ministry runs as follows :-General Na- varez retains the possession of the War Department; NI. Calderon Collantes, Minister of Marine M. Montes de Oca, of the Interior; M. Perez de Castro, of Fo- reign Affairs and PresidentoftheCounc.il; M.Lorenzo Arrngolo, of Justice; and M.Jose, de St Millan. of Finance No intelligence of any moment had been received from Las Parras, the head quarters of Gene- ral Espartero. That officer was awaiting the arrival of supplies before commencing active operations His army was suffering greatly from want of provisions. The Paris papers to Sunday's date have arrived. They assure us, that the Oriental question was consi- dered at Paris as good as settled. According to the current rumour, Mehemet Ali is to be left the hereditary sovereignty of Egypt and Syria, with the enjoyment for life of the Government of Candia, which at his death is to revert to the dominion of the Porte. The French Government, who only a few weeks ago ex- pressed such a determination to maintain the integrity of Spain by insisting upon the speedy evacuation of Passages by the English, is a' this very moment abou' 'o seize upon Minorca, by one of ihose devices which succeeded so admirably in Africa. True, the real de- sign of the Goverumen is not yet avowed; but of the fact no doubt can be entertained It is not surely in- tended to make the Mediterranean a French lake The news of the dissolution of the Cortes was communica'ed by telegraph to the French Government on Friday evening, and created a great sensation in Paris The price of corn at the las: markets underwent consider- able reduction, so that there is a probability of the bread being taxed under seventeen sous after the 1st of December. In Lisle the price of bread has been lowered, and in Belgium that of corn has, wrhin the last month, fallen upwards of a franc.

The intelligence from the United States has not had any effect on the Biitish market, no is there much business doing to the present hour. The brokers and jobbers are arranging their accounts against next Thursday, witch is settling day Friday is settling day in the Foreign Market. It is said, and we trust on good authority, that Lord Auckland, the Governor-General of India, is to be advanced to the dignity of an Earldom that Sir John Keane, the victoiions leader of the army of the Indus, and Sir John Colborne, the late Governor of the Canadas,are to be raised to the Pee rage.- Obserrer. Mr. Sergeant Wilde, whose seat at Newark is va- cated by his acceptance of the office of Solicitor-General, has been received in the most flattering manner by his con- stituents, and will, no doubt, be returned by a commanding majority. The Learned Sergeant has issued a spirited and highlv constitutional address. Mr. Thesiger, Queen's coun- sel, has started on the Conservative interest. Feargus O'Connor,in his Chartist paper, the Northern Star, published on Saturday, has issued a long address to the people of England, urging upon them the absolute necessity of immediately appointing a new National Convention." We trust this fellow will shortly meet with his deserts. Mr. Wakley, M.P., recommends to charitable ladies, and the members of benevolent societies, to present every family they assist with a fire-guard, in order to protect the children from accidents by fire, which are of dreadfully frequent occurrence. Several accidents have latelv occurred from the system of battue shooting: among them we hear that Earl Spencer, who has been for some days on a visit to the Earl of Leicester, at Holkham, was shot through the hat, and slightly wounded in the head. z, Much error prevails as to the right of purchasing presentations to livings. The right of presenting may be purchased, but the exercise of the right for money is simoniacal. Hence, during a vacancy, the presen- tation cannot be sold neither is it tegat to buy the right of presenting a particular person. The right, whether of perpetual presentation, or of single pre- sentation, must he conveyed absolutely and unconditi- onally, if conveyed at all.—Hi shop of Llandaff's charge. IMPORTANT TO SEAMF.N.—A case was lately brought before the Justices of Peace in this port with regard to the desertion of seamen from a British ship in foreign parts. Three men were shipped on board the Roger Stewart at New York, for the voyage from hence to Quebec and the Clyde, at the wages of 21. 10s. per month. At Quebec they de- serted the ship and came home in another vessel. Other men had to be engaged in their room at the rate of Sl. per month. On their arrival here the master of the Roger Stewart brought an action against them before her Majesty's Justices of the Peace, founding on the statute 5th and Cth of William IV., c. 10, for the recovery of the excess of wages paid to the men whom he was obliged to hire as substitutes in their room. The desertion being clearly proved by the log-book of the ship, the evidence required by the statute, the Justice, on the full hearing of the case, found the de- fenders liable in the excess of wages paid for substitutes, and, on failure to pay the sums respectively due, granted a war- rant in terms of the statute to imprison the defenders in the common gaol of the county, where one of them now lies until he discharges the debt incurred by his delinquency in de- serting his duty.—Greenock Advertiser. IMPORTANT TO PERSONS MARINA THEIR OWN WILLS- -Two cases have recently been decided in the Prerogative y 11 Court relative to the execution of a will under the Act of 1st Vict., cap. 26, which requires that "every will shall be in writing, and signed at the end or foot thereof bv the testator; and that the signature shall be made or acknow. ledged by him in the presence of two or more witnesses present at the 1° the one case (referable to the goods of Miss Bligh, spinster, deceased), the testatrix bad signed her will, although not in the presence of witnesses. She afterwards, however, acknowledged the signature in the presence of two witnesses, but at separate times, and apart from each other. In the other case (referable to the goods of William Millard, deceased), the testator had written his will on 11,0 sides of the paper, but had signed it, together with the attesting witnesses, only on the first side, the sig- nature being consequently not at the foot or end thereof." In both cases the probate was refused by Sir Herbert Jenner (the Judge of the Prerogative Conr ) on the ground that the provisions of the Act had not been duly complied with. These two cases present the first formal decisions on the sub. ject of the execution of a will under the new Statute.

vootorript. LONDON, WEDNESDAY, Nov. 27. This morning 'he Paris papers of Monday, and the Madrid papers of the 18ih inst. were received, but in neither do we find any news of importance. Bayonne letters of the 22d inst, state,that detachments of Carlists were daily arriving from the interior of France on their way back to Spain. The Gazette de France says, on the authority of its correspondent at Pau, that Cabrrra has addressed a letter to Espartero, in which he proposes a single combat between them. The Gazette is quite in ecstacy at the bravery and heroism of the preux chevalier. —————— This being settling day in the British Market, the brokers and jobbers are chiefly employed in arranging their accounts for to-morrow, pay-day. The extreme fluctuation during the present Account is about 11 per cent. and the contango (or continuation) is about f per cent. The Lord Lieutenant of Ireland has directed that any officer of the Irish Constahulai y force w ho shall give, accept, or be concerned in any challenge to fight a duel, upon any pretext or under any provocation, shall be punished with instant dismissal. As there are nearly 500 officers in this force, a large proportion of whom have held commissions in the British army, the order is important in itself; but it is of much greater moment as a precedent, and as being issued at a time when the question of duelling excites much of public attention. The clerical remonstrances sent to Lord Powerscourt and Lord Londonderry respectively, on the occasion of their late duels, may have contributed to elicit this salutary regulat on. These remonstrances reflected very high credit on the parties from whom they emanated and, until Parliament shall pass a law making duelling as disgraceful as it is wicked, we do hope that, whenever a duel shall be perpetrated in high life, the clergy of the locality will not fail to testify their abborence of the deed by a suitable address to the offending parties. The clergy would thus, at least, discharge their duty, and, perhaps, eventually put down this detestable custom. The Devonport Tories have again fixed on Mr. George Robert Dawson, brother-in-law of Sir Robert Peel, as their candidate for the vacancy caused by appointment of Sir Edward Codrington to a flag-ship. The Liberals have not less than three candidates in nomination, Mr. Tuffnell, Mr. Leech, and Mr. St. Aubyn. The fiiends of these genttemenshoutd speedily arrange amongst themselves which of the three is to have the undivided support of the Liberals, else Devonport will be disgraced by the return of an ultra-Tory. The metropolis was involved in so dense a fog during (he greater part of this morning that it was found necessary to light up all the shops and places of business. CLOSE OF THE SHIPPING SEASON AT ST. PF.TERS- BXJRGH.—Letters were received at this port on Tuesday from St. Petersburgh under the date of the 9th November, which state that the frost had set in, and all intercourse with Con- stadt had, in consequence, ceased. Linseed shipped from St. Petersburgh to Constailt on the 5th was then in course of being taken back. Thirty-five British ships remained on the 7th, but it was expected some portion of them would get away on that and the next day. From fifteen to twenty ships, chiefly with goods from Hull, had not arrived.-Hull Advertiser. IVKPRFSENTATION OF SOUTHWARK.—Last night a meeting of the electors of the above borough, consisting of more than one hundred persons, was held at the Ship Inn, Borough, for the purpose of carry ing out the measures already adopted to secure the election of Mr. Walker as their repre- sentative, in the room of Mr. Harvey, who has vacated hisseat by accepting the Chief Coinmissionf rship of the City Police. Mr. Boxer, was called to the chair, and in an able speech opened the proceedings. Resolutions, pledging the meeting to the support of Mr. Walker, were moved by Mr. Day and Mr. Edmund, seconded by Messrs. Wyles and Luxford and they were supported by Messrs. Hughes, Wakeling, Thomp- son, Lyons, Johnson, and others, and carried with only two dissentients. ANOTHER ALLEGED IMPORTANT DISCOVERY.—The following is a description of a new invention, applicable to locomotive engines, which is considered by a number of scientific men (as railway travelling is proceeding so rapidly) well calculated to supply a desideratum, and which is likely to prove a great national benefit, by reducing the expense and increasing the safety of internal interconise. The ad- vantages of it are- First, the condensing the steam after it escapes from the cylinders, and the water produced thereby returned to the boiler to be wrought over again and again by which means the boiler is rendered more durable, being kept perfectly free of incrnstation or deposit of any kind and no stoppage is required to take in water; of course freeing the engine of the burden of carrying a supply along with it. Second, the air that supports the combustion of the fuel is considerably heated previous to entering the ashpit; by which the smoke is completely consumed, although fresh coal be used in the furnace. Consequently, a great saving in the consumption of fuel is effected. It is pleasant to add, that an experiment has been made with the apparatus, which is exceedingly simple, and found to answer all the purposes intended, and for which a patent is in progress. The in- ventors are William and Andrew Symington, whose ingenious talents are likely to be of as great benefit to their country as those of their father, the late William Symington, cele- brated as the author and introducer of praclical steam navi- gation.- Correspundent of the Edinburgh Chronicle. THE CLERGYMAN AND THE DEIST.— A clergyman was once accosted bv a doctor, a professed Deist, who asked him if he followed preaching to save sottis ? Yes." Did you ever see a soul ?" No." Did you ever hear a sotil i" "No." "Did you ever smell a soul ?" "No." "Did you ever feel a sonl?" "Yes." "Well," said the doctor, there are three of the senses against one upon the question, whether there is a soul." The clergyman then asked, If he were a doctor of medicine ?" "Yes." "Did you ever see a pain?" "No." "Did yon ever taste a pain?" "No." Did you ever smell a pain?" "No." Did you ever feel a pain?" "Yes." We)) then," said the clergymad, there are three senses against one upon the question, whether there be pain; and yet, Sir, yon know that there is a pain, and I know that there is a soul."

EXTRAORDINARY CURE BY THE BARON SPOLASCO, Worthy the attention of the Public in genenal, and more especially of Captains oj Merchantmen. CASE of Captain DAYMENT, aged 73, for 50 years Master Mariner, and late Captain of the Brig Elinor and Grace, of Plymouth. For four years f suffered the most horrible torments that can be imagined, arising from a dreadfully ulcerated leg, of the most dangerous and malignant description, which was pronounced by every one who beheld it to be utterly incurable. I had become entirely hopeless of my ever being restored to a state of health, when, by the earnest entreaties of my brother-in-law, Capt. Lewis Richards, I was induced to come over to Swansea to try the celebrated Barou Spolasco, he having attained such universal celebrity in consequence of the immense number of wonderful cures he has effected. I arrived in the month of June last, and placed mvself under the Baron's care, and I rejoice to say that, by his great talent and kind attention me, my ley is now perjectly cured, and my bodily health entirely restored. For several years I knew not what a night's rest was, but lived in a state of the most indesoribable and agonizing torture, indeed so dreadfully actrte were my sufferings that I could not actually bear the weight of a handkerchief on the affected limb, but was compelled to have the handkerchief suspended from the ceiling by means of a Hue and hook I feel it as a duty that I owe to the talented Baron and to society in general to return him my most sincere and heartfelt thanks for the astonishing cure he has effected, and also to make this pnblic for the benefit of my suffer- ing fellow-creatures. The care was completed in about four months.-Dated at Clovelly, Devonshire, Nov. 13th, 1839. SAMUEL DAYMENT, aged 73.

BAYNTON, ot Cloford, near Frome, nearly three years since, met with an accident from a large thorn running into his ancle, which he endeavoured to get extracted, under which operation it broke off, and a part remained in the wound. Endeavours to extract the remaining piece produced violent and extensive inflammation, and great irritation. Thewhote leg became covered with small red watery pimples; and his sufferings wrre so severe, that he was rendered incapable of either walking or riding. Under these unfortunate ciicum- stances he remained upwards of two years, when, about six months ago, he was advised by an aunt to try DR. GREEN'S ANTISCORBUTIC DROPS" (by which she had been cured ot a similar complaint in her arm), and he accordingly purchased some of Mr. Penny, Bookseller, Frt/nie. Its beneficial effects induced him to continue its use, and before he had used the third bottle, to his great satisfaction, it produced a sound and perfect cure. He i- now capable of taking any exercise, and his leg is as well as ever it was in his life.—July 17th, 1834. The above valuable article was invented, and for many years prepared, by Dr. GREEN.

The OFFICERS and MEMBERS OF THE LOYAL SINGLETON ABBEY LODGE, No. 2nO, HELD At the Black Horse, High-street, Swansea, FEEL grear pleasure ill informing the Public, that success in adding to the number of BROTHER DRUIDS 5 lias exceeded their most sanguine expectations. They likewise respectlu.ly invita public attention to the regulations of the Order, and challenge the strictest investigation as to its merits, advfn- tages, and privileges, as compared with those of other secret societies. D Ilti I DS advocate no sector party, either of religion or politics and though deeply impressed with the truth and importance of the Divine Record, yet, in order to prevent ;ill useless, unneces- sary, and unpleasant collision of sentiment, thev riiridfv exclude all discussions of a jeligious or political lIat IHe-the cloven hoof of tlie Infidel shall not tread their floor, nor his pbisonous breath contaminate the.r atmosphere. Chartism thev utterly abhor as tending to the destruction of all social relations, the subversion ?' government, the annihilation of all the moral and beautilul feelings ol our nature and what is still more horrible, they are convinced that its tendency and actual effect' is to rouse all the worst passions of our nature, and, like an Infernal Machine as it is, to scatter death and destruction on all within its reach. The Ancient Order of Druids bears no relation to the Modern Order of Political Monomaniacs. During the last fortnight Lodges have been opened onder the most favourable auspices in Morriston and Llanedi.. With respect to an advertisement which lately appeared in the Cambrian, and emanating from a set of unprincipled individuals. styling themselves the Indeuendtut Order of Ancient Druids," the OHicers and Members of (lit* Loyal Shigleton Abbey Lodge heg to append the following extract of a communication from the Grand Lodge, viz.: That the Grand Lodge has not the most distant knowledge of of connexion with, the spurious self-created Lodge, crdting themselves the Independent Order '1 Ancient Druids," held at the Orange Trei Ifill, Orange-streett Swansea H.
