For several years past the name of the Prince of Naples has been matrimonially meptioned in connection with nearly every eligible princess in Europe, and the affair lias operated to divide Roman society into several parties. One section, the first to appear, wishes for a marriage with Princess Clementlneof Belgium, youngest daughter of King Leopold II. Another large party hopes for an alliance with an English princess, because of the friendship existing between the two nations and the good feeling of the two reigning houses one for the other.
