THE PRINCE OF WALES.

ST. JOHN'S, NEW BRUNSWICK, Aug. 7.
After aving Halifax, the Prince and suite proceeded
to `Pinar, Nova Scotia, by rail, a distance of forty-
two mil( when he embarked on board her Majesty's
war stoner Styx, Captain greasy, in which vessel
they arthl in our harbour on the 2nd instant at eleven

p.m. Is governor, Mr. Manners Sutton, with his
aide-de-chip, immediately proceeded on board to pay
his respes to his Royal Highness, who remained in the
vessel dung the night. At half-past ten next morning
the guns wounced that all was ready for landing, the
yards of to steamer were manned, and the Royal party
landed (Who principal wharf at Reed's Point, where
suitable sging had been arranged, and carpets laid
down. Aiund the wharf a pavilion was erected, con-
taining sea for accommodating a large number of per-
sons, and %thin the enclosure, near the landing, were
stationed to Lieutenant-Governor and suite, General
Trollope ai staff, the members of the government and
legislatureiudges, mayor and corporation, magistrates,

consuls, myors of other cities, high sheriff, coroner,

province tasurer, comptroller, railway commissioners,

and other Bads of civil departments. The band of the
63rd reginut was stationed near the landing, and the
guard of bnottr was composed of sixteen men from each
of our Volnteer Rifle Companies, with their officers.
The provirial colonels of the militia force also attended
in uniform The Prince was attired in a full-dress colo-

nel's unifon, and as he stepped on the wharf he unco-
vered his ead, and in the most graceful and elegant
manner acnowleclged the enthusiastic cheering and
welcome wich was given to him by the people. He
is consider by the ladies to be very good-looking and
handsome. His height does not exceed five feet seven
inches, fait hair, and good-sized hands and feet. His
extremely todest and unaffected mantictl his kindly
countenanci and noble bearing, created for him a most
favourable upression on .the populace, although the
great anxiet evinced by every one to see him, almost pre-
vented the pople from showing their loyalty, by shouting
and cheerini as was expected—all were too excited lo
think of anytting else than looking at him for the moment.

Amongst all he officials and the many thousands of per
sons wko leered-raining their eyes looking at him, he
appeared to be the coolest, calmest, and most collected
person there. His easy graceful salutations, as he walked
to his eirriage,werethe-admiration of every one, not even
excepting the fair portion of oar republican neighbours,
of whom there were many present, and who appeared to
be immensely pleased with him. Following imme-
diately after him were thee Duke of Newcastle and the
Earl of St. Germans. The Luke was dressed in the uni-
form of a lieutenant of a comity, scarlet coat and sil-
ver lace, with cocked hat. The Earl of St. Germans was
dressed in the Windsor uniform. After these two great
officers of state came General Brine, the Prince's gover-
nor, accompanied by General Trolltpe, the commander-
in-chief in these provinces ; Dr. Aickland, the Prince's
physician, and the two equerries in vaiting. After the
Royal party Were seated in their carriages they pro-
ceeded at a slow pace along Prince William-street, the
principal one in the city, followed by the officials, who
escorted
,them to their temporary resid,ence, earth side of
the street being lined with the fire companies, in full
uniform, with their horses and engnes ; the Sons of
Temperance, with their banners ; the Trades, with flags
and emblems ; and the National Societies.
The residence selected for the Prime is rather old,
but beautifully situated in the middle of a fine lawn,
filled with trees, and is owned by Mrs. Csipman, widow
of the late Chief Justice. The Prince ocetpied the same
bedroom' in which his grandfathers the Dike of gent,
slept seventy years ago, while he visited this city as
commander of the forces. More handsome and modern
houses could have been obtained, hut this selection was
made by the governor on account of the old associations
connected with the house, and the arrangement was ap-
proved of by the royal parents. On the Prince entering the
grounds he was received by about 5,000 children belonging
to the different Sunday schools, who sang the National
Anthem. He afterwards walked down among them, and
asked them to repeat the anthem, and appeared much
affected with the enthusiastic reception here. The Duke
of Newcastle also etptessed himself greatly pleased with
the warm reception they fiat met with, and the cordial
welcome everywhere extended to them. The Royal
party were delighted with the decorations, consisting of
handsome pillars and triumphal arches, gaily ornamented
with flags, spruce boughs, and flowers. The arch at
the gate of his residence was also very handsos-e.
There Could not have been less than 30,000 or 40,000
people in the street and at the windows, while he was
passing along, and eluting his progress through the
crowd the greatest excite'm'ent prevailed, more parti-
cularly among the ladies, who waved their handker-
chiefs and threw their bouquets to him. It was a perfect
ovation, and showed the attachment of the people of
this colony to his Royal mother and the British Crown.
The Prince afterwards proceeded to the Court House,
which had been beautifully fitted up for the occasion,
and, after viewing the procession as it passed before him,
he received some addresses and held a levee, at which
nearly 300 persons were presented to him in full evening
dress, which was prescribed for the occasion. At the
reception the Prince stood at one end of the room on a
slightly raised platform, with the governor and the
Duke of Newcastle on his right, and the Earl of St.
Germans on his left. _The earl received the card of each
person as he advanced before the Prince, and read off
the name in a very stately and dignified manner, the
person presented bowed before his Royal Highness,
who also bowed in return, and then passed on to make
room for another. During the ceremony the Prince fre-
quently smiled and seemed amused with the presenta-
tions. After the levee the governor and party drove
round the principal streets in the city, and afterwards to
the Suspension Bridge, Lunatic Asylum, and other places
of interest. The only person invited to the Royal dinner
party in the evening was the Hon. Charles Fisher, Attor-
ney General. At eight o'clock in the evening there
were brilliant fireworks in the public squares, and at
nine o'clock the illumination commenced. This was also
a very successful affair, and although the streets were
quite crowded during the evening, every person behaved
in the most orderly and quiet manner. The public
buildings were well illuminated.
Next morning, at half-past nine, he Left St. John's by
rail, amidst the deafening cheers of thousands of specta-
tors, who were again delighted to see him, and pro-
ceeded to the Nine Mile Station, where a steamer was
waiting to receive and convey him to Fredericton, the
seat of government of the province. The car which
conveyed the royal party was new, and beautifully
fitted up it drawing-room style. The Prince stood
on the platform outside, so that every one could see
him. Several members of the English and American
press accompanied him to Fredericton, along with
the members of the legislature. He travelled in
ordinary morning dress ; but on his arrival in
Fredericton he again appeared in colonel's uniform,

His reception at head-quarters was also a perfect ovation,
although on a very small scale as compared with St.
John. In the evening the governor had a small dinner
party of 24 persons to meet him. On Sunday he
attended the cathedral in the morning, when the bishop
preached. On Monday he held a levee A Government
House, which has been recently refitted and furnished
in the most elegant manner for this occasion. About
500 persons were presented to him. In the afternoon
he drove with the governor and suite to a new park
which has been lately opened for public use. The water
in the fountahr was duly turned on in his presence, and
the opening of the park formally inaugurated.
In the evening a subscription ball was given by the
city and people of Fredericton in honour of the Royal
visit, attended by about 15,000 persons. The Parliament
Buildings were fitted up for the occasion, and very
gaily decorated. There were four dancing rooms, and
two fine brass bands—one of the bands, belonging to
the 63rd Regiment, being quite a superior one. The
ladies were very elegantly dressed, and a large propor-
tion of them very handsome. At ten o'clock the Prince
entered the principal ball-room, and passed up to the
throne through an avenue of' ladies and gentlemen,
leading the governor's lady on hie arm, followed by the
governor, the Duke of Newcastle, Earl of St. Germaine,
Generals Bruce and Trollope, and the rest of the suite,
both bands playing as he entered. After several pre-
sentations were made to his Royal Highness, ho opened
the ball with the governor's lady, and afterwards
joined in each dance until two o'clock, when he left the
ball-room. During the four hours he was present the
Duke of Newcastle and the Earl of St. Germains
never left him ; neither of them danced, but remained
immediately behind him during the evening. The
Prince is an easy, graceful dancer, although he danced
the fast dances so fast that the young ladies who were
his partners could scarcely keep up with him. The
governor's lady brought up his partners and intro-
duced them to him, and immediately when the dance was
ended an equerry in waiting stepped forward and led
them away. He danced every dance until he left, and
he had for partners the Governor's daughter, the Bishop's
daughter, the Attorney-General's daughter, the Chief
Justice's lady, Judge Ritchie's lady, Judge Parker's
daughter, Mrs. Dr. WM. Bayard, and several others.
He retired at two a.m., and at six a.m. he was on board
the steamer which conveyed him to St. John. His
physician is of opinion that he cannot keep up the
programme laid down for him in his tour, as the fatigue
will be too much for him. He arrived at St. John at
three p.m. on Tuesday the 7th inst., and at five p.m. he
was on board the Styx, bound for Windsor, N.S., and
thence to Pictou and Prince Edward Island. His
reception in St. John previous to embarking was again
a perfect ovation, and the whole party frequently ex-
pressed themselves quite delighted with their visit to
New Brunswick.

HOLLOWAY'S PILLS AND OINTMENT.—FemaIe complaints.
On the mothers of England devolves much and serious re-
sponsibility in securing to their daughters robust health;
frequently, alas ! thoughtlessly sacrificed by culpable bashful-
ness at a particular period of life when all-important changes
take place in the female constitution, and upon the proper
management of which hangs future happiness or misery.
Neglect in assisting nature has consigned thousands of Eng-
land's lovely daughters to despondency, disease, and premature
death. Holloway's Pills, especially if aided with the Ointment,
have the happiest effects in establishing those functions upon
the-due performance of which our social position depends, and
our race may be tiavefl from. degeneration. Mothers and
daughters may safely use these powerful deobstruent remedies
without feeing the faculty.
