The "Alabama" in Eastern waters. By the arrival of the Cape mail, we learn that two vessels had arrived in Table Bay, at the end of December, with news of the Alabama.

that this will be forthcoming, yet the withholding of the royal approval is evidently the hitch in the matter. Let us hope that it will be finally graciously and gracefully yielded. In the whole Guelphei family there is no one more popular than the Princess Mary, and the people of England would infinitely sooner see her wedded to an English nobleman for whom she cares than to a German one whom she may never have seen. As to the name of the gentleman, that is easily arrived at. Our friend Punch says: "All happiness to Viscount Cucullus." Scraps of school-boy classic lore, yet lingering in odd corners of memory, remind us of the old proverb, non facit monachum cucullus--the hood does not make the monk — and then looking into that peerage which every well-regulated Briton keeps by him, we find that Viscount Hood served in the Guards; and lo, on the ingenious principle ascribed to the first cooper of putting two and two together, the whole mystery is solved.--London Star, October 25.
