AN ANECDOTE OF THE PRINCE OF WALES.—The cor-
respondent of the New York Comlnercial Advertiser
relates the following of bis Royal Highness :--The fol-
lowing little anecdote came under my own observation.
Several young ladies were looking at the sleeping bertb.
of his Royal Righness, when one damsel anxiously
asked the attendant if he could tell which berth was
for the Prince's own use. She was answered that she
did not know.' The young lady, in a very sentimental
tone of voice, said, she was so sorry, she would ao like
to have placed her hand on his pillow." Then, warm,'
said the matter-of-fact attendant, ' I think youhad bat-
ter put it on to all of them, and you will sure to be
right.' This seemed to destroy the darzsers romance,
for she left the car looking daggers' at him who spoke."
TILE GREAT EASTERN STEAMSRIP.—On Tuesday the
Great Eastern was thrown open to the inspection of the
public. The directors have last no time in thus making
her profitable. A meting of the directors on the spot
—viz., Captain Carnegie, R.N., Mr. S. Baker, and IP-
Bold, was held on board the ship on Monday afternirD,
at which Mr. F. Clarke attended on behalf of the7Soutb.
Wales RailwaY Company, and it was decided to apes
her at once to public inspection. Thousands of persons
who visited the Channel fleet also, took advantage of the
opportunity to go on board the "big ship." On Mon-
day the operation of cleaning and preparing her for
show occupied all the available hands. In the couro
of Monday several officers from the Royal squadron in.
the Raven visitedthe Great Eastern, and were received
by her commander, Captain Vine Hall. , The vessel
still lies at her anchorage below the dockyard on the
Milford side of the Haven. Her coals will, we under-
stand, have to be taken out of her before she is placed-
on the gridiron.

CAPTURE OF AN ESCAPED AND DARLNG CONVICT."'"
It will be remembered that, last week, Sergeant Bent
and another officer of the county police were severely.
assaulted whilst attempting to apprehend an escaped
convict, named John Robinson, at Newton Heath. With
the aid of his friends Robinson then got off ; but he was
traced to Sheffield, where he was apprehended on Sun-
, day morning, at two o'clock, at a place called Shales
Moor. Sergeant Breathing, of the Kirkdale division of
police, went to the house where the convict was supposed
to be, at two o'clock in the morning, accompanied by
several other constables, who guarded all the means of
exit from the premises. Breathing found the marl
sleeping with his wife and two children. Before he was
awake, Breathing succeeded in putting one of his hand*
in the handcuffs ; and the other handcuff he fastened 01i
during the movements of waking. The convict, finding
himself caught, became as violent as the irons would
allow ; but Breathing succeeded in dressing him, and
then brought him to the police station at Rusholme-
Here the convict conducted himself in the most
extraordinary manner, declaring with horrible oaths,
that he would never be tried at another assizes-
He more than once attempted to make the police-
officers believe that he was insane ; and whilst
lying in his cell he appeared to be trying to strang
himself until spoken to by the constables, when be
looked up and began to laugh. He also related to the
police the numerous acts of daring and villany which
he had committed ; and enumerated the number of times
he had broken out of prisons. He said he was once
confined in a lunatic asylum, but broke away, " because
he could not afford to stay there." The prisoner was
taken before Mr. Trafford, at the New Bailey. He
conducted himself in such a violent manner that con-
stables had to surround him, to prevent his executing
his threat of jumping out of the dock and pulling the
magistrate off the bench. During the reading of the
depositions the prisoner used the most blasphemous
oaths in such quick succession that scarcely a word of
the evidence could be heard. On being told that ha
was to be committed to the assizes, he swore that he Tad
been " assized" enough, and that when he got again to,
the Assize Court he would " carry on" as he was doing
then. Upon leaving the dock the violence of the
prisoner was so great that it was found necessary to put
leg-irons on him. We understand he has given the
authorities liberty to keep him for a week in Birkdale
Gaol, after which time he means to be again at large.

Ntw liivtxrios.--Tfis NEW FOUNTAIN Prx.---A greater
annoyance than a bad steel pen can hardly be met with---ttl
difficulty is to get a good one. Amongst the recent improve,.
ments the new "fountain pen," just introduced by Rudb44,
and Co., is the best we have ever seen. By a simple but ape',
dye contrivance the ink is retained in a fountain, by melkiks of
a second inverted barrel, above the writingnib, and this bftrrel,
.can be taken out at any time, so the pen can be kept pgrfectlf
clean without any chance of being corroded. Another feature
in this pen is, that one dip in the ink will last for live minutes'
quick writing. The pen itself is of the finest deacription, and
in merchants' offices, banks, and indeed in every place, it will
be found to fill a want felt by every one up, to this time. I%:e
have tried this splendid pcn, handed to uis by Mr. E. T. Halls
South John-street, and can pronounce it perfect, and we are
sure all who use it will give A fiffi verdict in.itafaTour
