SONTAG'S ACCIDENT.
It was not " a certain German Prince who draws his revenues from England" who was concerned in a popular songstress's accident: that was entirely caused by a too powerful violin accompaniment. The Prince alluded to was reported to be in love with Mademoiselle BAUER, a very interesting actress, and, according to Tudesque notions, very pretty. She bears a good character ; and is the daughter of an Austrian field-officer, from whom she derived a fortune that her suc- cessful passion for the stage renders superfluous. It was said that the Prince wished to marry her with the left hand; but that it was objected to, on the ground of his not being a reigning prince. We suspect the truth to be, that lie apprehended inability to bear the expenses of the bridal.
