The foreign guests at the British Court left Buckingham Palace

on Tuesday. The King of the Belgians and his sons were the first to de- part.

In the evening of Tuesday, the Prince and Princess of Prussia, the Duchess of Saxe-Coburg, and Prince William of Baden, set out on their return to the Continent. The Duke of Saxe-Coburg alone re- mained, and assisted at the Chapter of the Garter, held at Windsor on Thursday.

The dresses of the principal actors at the marriage ceremony will be a topic of some interest, since they not only have their effect in the picture but illustrate the taste of the day. The' Queen wore a dress of mauve velvet—mallow-colour, a kind of warm lilac much in fashion. The body was trimmed with Honiton lace and studded with diamonds. The_petticoat was of the same colour, and was flounced with Honiton lace. The head-dress was a crown of diamonds and pearls. The Duchess of Kent and the Duchess of Cambridge wore dresses of a colour like that of her Majesty's ; but the material of the former was velvet, that of the latter silk. Both were glittering with gems, and each wore a - head-dress of feathers and jewels. The Princess Mary of Cambridge wore blue crepe over white. The skirt was bedecked with blush roses; the body with pearls and diamonds ; the head-dress with feather and diamonds.

The Princesses Helena, Alice, and Louisa, wore white lace over pink satin, bilmoted with corn-flowers and daisies. The dress of the Princess Royal was of white moire antique, trimmed with orange and myrtle blossoms, the wedding-flowers of England and Germany. There were three flounces of Honiton lace on the skirt, and a profusion of flowers. Round her head was a wreath of orange flowers and myrtle. The veil was of Moulton lace. The uniform worn by Prince Frederick William was blue and gold, with white trousers. The Prince Consort wore his Field-Marshal's uniform, and his orders of the Garter, the Prussian Black Eagle, the Bath, and Golden Fleece ; and he carried his laton. The King of the Belgians wore the same costume. His orders were those of the Garter and Bath.

On the day after the marriage, there was a "private view" of the wedding presents, which are described as forming a magnificent collec- tion. Some of them deserve notice. The King and Queen of Prussia give a coronet of diamonds. The spires are lofty, the base is formed of open shell work. Queen Victoria gave a diamond necklace, three brooches, and. three silver candelabra ; the Prince Consort a bracelet of diamonds and emeralds ; the gentlemen of the House- hold a bracelet to match: both these were worn on Monday. The gift of the Prince of Wales was a suite of earrings, brooch, and necklace of opals and diamonds. The present of the bridegroom to his bride was a necklace of orient pearls of large size mid great value. The Duchess of Kent gave a costly dressing-case : the Duchess of Cambridge a bracelet, the Princess Mary her portrait framed in gold. King Leopold presented the Princess with a dress of Brussels lace worth 20001. The Maharajah Dhuleep Singh gave her "one of the most fairy-like opera-glasses ever used by lady "—a thing of gold and whit. anamel, with double rows of diamonds. The Bri- tish and Foreign Bible .aociety gave a big and gorgeously bound Bible.

In reference to the report that the French Ambassador has demanded the extradition of certain persons on a charge of conspiring to assassinate the Emperor Napoleon —a report circulated before the publication of an authorized ,ersion of the Count de Persigny's speech,—"A. Barrister" sup- plies the Daily Yeses with a case that illustrates the subject. The ques- tion is, whether persons accused of conspiring in England can properly be sent out of England for trial in the country where the Conspiracy was to have taken effect. The law of England would take cognizance of conspiracy to murder, but in the indictment for such a crime where would the venue lie ? Take the ease cited by way of answer—" The King v. Walrond and others," tried in the Court of King's Bench on the 30th April 1827. "Lord Clanricarde and another nobleman," John Auldjo, Esq., Messrs. Boland, O'Neil, Walrond, and others were playing cards at Richmond. Auldjo lost about 60001.; and Boland, O'Neil, and Wahnnd, were afterwards "brought to the bar on a charge of 'a conspiracy by unjust, fraudulent, and deceitful ways and pretences, and by unlawful play at cards, to obtain from John Auldjo, Esq. divers large sums of money, and to defraud him of the same.'" The charge was cheating at Richmond, not conspiring to cheat in Middlesex, where the case was tried. The Lord Chief Justice laid down the rule, that a conspiracy to defraud must be tried in the county where the conspi- ring tonic place, and not in the county where the cheating was to be perpetrated. A cheating in. Surrey must be tried in Surrey, though the conspiracy in Middlesex must be tried in Middlesex. This rule ap- plies to the present demand for extradition. The attempt to murder might be tried in Paris, but any conspiring in England would have to be tried in England ; and our courts of justice would be opened to the injured party.

A M. Magnet brought an action before the Civil Tribunal of Paris to recover above 100,000 francs from the estate of M. Alexandre Dumas. M. Magnet claims to have been co-author with Dumas of "Monte Cristo" and a host of other works which have given him fame and hard cash. Magnet has not been paid the sums agreed upon when he undertook to cooperate with Dumas. Some amusing correspondence was read in Court, leaving it beyond a doubt that Magnet aided Dumas. In some of the letters Dumas pressed 31. Magnet to send copy to the Presse and the Sack, in which some of the works appeared. One of these letters was thus conceived- " The Presse is weeping ; the Presse is crying. My dear friend, I am dis- tracted about these unfortunate feuilletons ! For two hours the Press° has been waiting. What am I to do ? What can I say i" Again, with respect to ..1fonte Cristo, M. Dumas once wrote, "Your 'bundle of copy has been lost ! Such negligence on the part of the messenger is infamous, on my honour ! But set to work, my dear friend, and make all right."
