The Queen and Prince Consort, immediately after celebrating the birthday of the Princess Royal at Windsor Castle, who completes her fourteenth year on the 21st of November, will proceed with the Royal Family, as usual at this period of the year, to the Isle of Wight. The Court will remain at Osborne until about the middle of December ; when, it is said—though we are enabled to state that nothing definitive has as yet been determined on the subject—the Emperor and Empress of the French will pay their first visit to the British Court. On the arrival of the illustrious visitors, her Majesty and his Royal Highness Prince Albert will, it is expected, accompany them to Windsor Castle, where a series of banquets, balls, concerts, &e., on a scale of magnificence, liberality, and splendour unequalled in the present reign, will be given. During the stay of the royal 'visitors at the Castle, which will probably be about six or eight days, the Emperor will be installed a Knight of the Garter, with all the pomp and ceremonies incidental on the atindoohm of a foreign potentate into this most ancient and honourable fraternity. The three Knights who have also been nominated to fill the vacancies occasioned by the demise of the Marquis of Anglesey, the Marquis of Londonderry, and the Duke of Beaufort,—namely, the Earls of Carlisle, Ellesmere, and Elgin,—will also be installed at the same time. Should the weather admit, there will be a review of the Royal Horse Guards and other troops in the neighbourhood of Windsor ; but, in the absence of so many regiments which have gone to the East, and the lateness of the season, there will be no attempt at any grand military display. We un- derstand that the portion of the Castle occupied by the King of Prussia, when that sovereign last visited England; will be fitted up, not only mag- nificently, but with every attention to comfort, for the express use of the Emperor and Empress and suite during their stay at Windsor.-3forning Post, October 25.

The Guards, 238 in number, intended to reinforce the Household bri- gade in the East, departed from London on Thursday morning, for Southampton, there to embark in the Queen of the South, together with 430 men from the depots of other regiments, for the Crimea..

The Colonelcy of the Sixty-seventh Regiment is vacant by the death of Lieutenant-General John Frederick Ewart. He entered the Army in. 1803, and served through the principal campaigns in the Peninsula. He was also present at the capture of Guadeloupe and commanded the Sixty- seventh Regiment for some years in India, where he was present in command of a brigade at the siege of Asseerghur.

The Admiral of the Fleet, Sir Thomas Byam Martin, died on Saturday, at the residence of his son, Rear-Admiral William Fanshawe Martin, Superintendent of Portsmouth Dockyard. While commanding the flying squadron in the Baltic, his second son, Rear-Admiral Henry Byam Mar- tin, was there apprized of his father's illness, and came home in the Leopard : he arrived on Wednesday week, and saw his father still in life.

Sir Thomas Byam Martin was eighty-two at his death. He entered the Navy in 1782, and served actively in the naval combats of the last war, making several prizes. When with the Baltic fleet in. 1808, commanding' the Implacable, 74, he engaged the Russian 74-gun ship Sewolod ; whose fire be silenced in about twenty minutes ' • "being only prevented from cap- turing her by the approach of the whole Russian fleet, which bore up to her support" She soon, however' grounded on a shoal at the entrance of the port of Rogerswick, and in that position was attacked and destroyed by Rear- Admiral Sir Samuel Hood, in the Centaur.

Sir Thomas Martin acted as one of the supporters of the coffin at the funeral of William the Fourth; with whom he had served, in 1785. He was appointed Admiral of the Fleet in 1849.

The secret conference of the American Ambassadors to England, France, and Spain, held at Ostend, terminated its sittings on the 16th Instant. It is stated that they have addressed a minute of' their proceed- ings to the Federal Government.

Mr. Soule, the American Minister at the Court of Madrid, was refused admission into a French port on ,his return, this week, from England to Spain. Mr. Soule left Madrid some time back for his health; he resided, we believe, for a short period in the Pyrenees, and recently attended the conference of American Ministers at Ostend. It is conjectured that his alleged participation in Republican movements at the Spanish capital would be advanced as the reason for his exclusion from France : but it is stated on behalf of Mr. Soule, that he has satisfied the present Govern- ment of Madrid that he stood entirely clear of any domestic movements in that country. Certain of the insurgents chose to baptize one of their barricades by his name, but, without his knowledge • and that, it is ang,' le th-ty shle'factWhich tonnects him -With the afkairisqMia:SAula:s extreme Democratic opinions are well known, recently been in this Callintry ; his personal friendships are -.Undisguised ; and there is n further itipposition, that the agents of the Imperial GovemmenWialli ing the movements of Frenehmea,;in London who are "suspects," may, by,-their reports, have occasioned this ineonvenience.

The senior General Of the Frenth army has just died—Count Theodore de Lameth ; in his ninety-ninth year. The Duchess of Wertemberg, sister of Prinee Adam Caartoryski, who voluntarily shared her brother's exile, has just died at Paris. Shit was eighty-nine years of age. . Omar Pasha has decorated Private Anderson, of the Sappers and Miners, with the order of Afedidj4, for his bravery in the attack on _Giurgevo last summer. He followed Lieutenant Burke, and was wounded in the engage= ment.

William Darley, the Anieriean statician and geographer, has died at Wash- ington.

The old Victory in Portsmouth Harbour was dressed in laurels on Suter- dliy, the anniversary of Trafalgar.

Baron Hess, the Commander-in-chief of the Austrian Army, has decided upon continuing the line of .the electric telegraph from the Austrian frontier to Ailey. We are-happy in being able to publish some details which prove the deep solicitude felt by the Emperor and by the Government-for the welfare of the army. Not only has the Minister of War organized the Intendance and the hospital service in such a manner as to provide for every want—not only has he sent large supplies of-every kind, but every man has been provided with a cotton shirt, a flannel waist-belt, a blanket, and a " tente-abri." The Emperor has also sent to the General-in-chief of the army of the East a lien- siderable number of small bottles containing a, preservative against the cholera. Hearing' also that the officers in the Crimea had great difticulty.in procuring wine and brandy, his Majesty appropriated 50,000 francs from his private purse for despatching a certain qunntity of these articles to the army. —Paris Pays. The soldiers in the camp at Boulogne have been provided with comforts for the winter, iron rooms for general meetings, and libraries for each bri- gade= A number of thesailors of the French Baltic fleet, lying at Cherbourg, will have four months' leave during the winter to obtain employ as fishermen or in the coasting trade; preference will be given to those baying families to maintain.

The Russian prisoners seem to be passing a pleasant life at Lewes. They are, well lodged and fed; a clergyman preaches to them in their own lan- guage; a workshop is provided for the men, where they make toys, for which they find a ready market; and the officers are visited by the local notables, enjoy rides over the South Downs, and are to he permitted. tovisit London. The majority of the soldiers can read, and can write tolerably well, while the sergeants and other subordinate officers are still better edu- cated: it is feared that a comparison on this point between one of Our regiments and the prisoners would be to the advantage of the "Northern barbarians." [Are the educated men Russians or Fins ?]

Up to the 18th instant, 322 persons had died from cholera at Merthyr and Dowlais.

Bideford in Devonshire has been severely visited by the Cholera'; nineteen persons died in one week. The disease was most virulent in the dirtiest parts of the town. Sanitary measures have been adopted, including the burning of tar=barrels in the streets. The epidemic is decreasing at Liverpool, Glasgow, Dublin, and Belfast. An association of swine. keepers has, been formed at Leicester to resist the proceedings of the Local Board of Health, who of course try to abolish the unwholesome and illegal practice of keeping pigs ha a town. No Councillors are to be elected who object to baying hogs for neighbours. A similar movement has been tried at Coventry, but there it failed: the Magistrates fined the keepers of swine, and drove the unclean animals from the city.

The North-eastern coasts were visited by heavy gales last week; about ftfty vessels were wrecked, and in some cases lives were sacrificed. Wrecks are also reported on the Western coasts. At Fisliguard a schooner was seen to founder during dreadful weather ; and all hands perished in the eight of the people on shore, who were powerless to render aid. ' The steamer E. K. Collins has been burnt near Detroit, with a loss of thirty-eight lives.

In.1853 there were 832 vessels wrecked on the coasts and in the seas of the United-Kingdom; the known loss of life was 989,

The Conservative Land Society have added 295 county voters to the lists this year in six counties; 41 claims were disallowed. The Mayor of Windsor has received no less than 2425/. for "the Perry „Defence and Testimonial Fund."
