THE p RINCE OF WALES.

Good bye, Wales; give' our love to your mother!
Good bye ; be virtuous and you will be happy. You
have seen some very sensible men in this country,
Albert Edward, and you must remember them; you
have seen nearly all of our snobs and lick-spittles, and
you will not remember them. Nobody, besides such,
expects you will. You have heard that tune " God
Save the Queen" a great many times, Renfrew, but you
have persistently whistled ' Dixie's Land." You have
been very much squeezed, Albert Edward, and it will
be good for you. You have been rubbed against, and
it will make 3ou bright. A great many stories have
been told about you, Mr. Wales, some of which are
true and some false. You have worn very good clothes,
but not a handsome hat. You have ridden about with
some very good horses, and you have received some of
our choicest variety of mud turtles to take home. You
have ••isiteci
about, and you have danced with some of the best
dressed old ladies in America. You like to dance, but
you don't dance the Lancers very well. Still you are
a pretty clever fellow. If you lived in this country you
would stand a chance to be ruined, Albert Edward.
You would certainly join a fire company, and then
you would be sent to the Common Council, and then
you might be elected to Congress, and you would lose
your self-respect, and you would be done. Reporters
have bothered you very much you say, Albert Edward.
They have bribed your chamber maids and bought up
men of your suite. You have been a godsend in the
way of •' items," Albert Edward ; and in behalf of the
reporters of Boston I bid you an affectionate farewell.
"Ich Dien" is played out on this side, Albert Edward,
and you have taken home something of " E Pluribus
Unum." One thing to your credit, Albert Edward,
you have paid your bills with remarkable promptness,
and you have done your tour in good shape. You seem
to have any quantity of money, and you put it out
freely. Yes, sirree—so freely, that some think you
must have dealings with the Butterman. You have
been "going it," and now you may go—on these
terms : send along Kelly per next steamer.--Boston
Herald (improved).

NEWS OF THE DAY.

The siege of Gaeta does not seem any nearer its
termination. A letter dated from the fortress on the •
4th, which appears in one of the Paris evening journals,
gives some details respecting the firing on both sides,
the results of which seem to be scarcely yet appreciable.
It is stated that the young Princes frequently pass the
night in going from one battery to another, and that
the resolution of the King to defend the place to the last
extremity was, at the above date, as strong and decided
as ever. On the night of Monday, the 2nd, a party of
thirty men were despatched from the fortress to set fire to
the nearest houses in the suburbs, but the Piedmontese
were found to be occupying them in force, and received
their visitors with so smart a fire that the latter were
forced to return, leaving their mission unaccomplished.
It is added that the beseigers hesitate to destroy the
buildings with shells, which is an unwarranted act of
consideration on the part of a Neapolitan Bourbon, but
then it is explained that the houses have been deserted
by their owners. • These details are so far confirmed by
a letter of the sth, dated from the Piedmontese head-
quarters.
The affairs of the Papal Government continue to pre-
sent no redeeming features, but rather the reverse.
A letter from a correspondent in Rome gives some
interesting particulars on the subject, and in one
passage, explains the statement in the telegram from
Rome, dated the 9th, that His Holiness is much dis-
satisfied with the conduct of the bishops in Urabi
The latter have, it appears, been treating with unusual
severity those of the clergy under their jurisdiction
who have ventured not to separate themselves from the
revolutionary movement. We also learn on the same
authority, that the insurrectionary movements in the
