nese, acomumnied by Lord Belhaven, Major Cowell, r.
Fletcher, jun., of Balking Mr. Boum.* Primrose, and Mr.
Haig, arrived in Hamilton in two mu.iages, and proor led
to Cednow Forest, to view the ancient teed., the white
rattle, and the old oaks. The prime, in true senor fashion,
walked the plank on the bridge at present being emoted to
connect the forest with Chatelhersult, and indulged in •
jump or two to the amassment of bra companions, who
appeared to think that prudence was ne better part of
Taead did not follow him in what they seemed to
reckon • rather perilous enterprise. The proceedings of
the prince, and the hesitation of his staid companions,
afforded some amusement to the onlooker. The party
arrived at the palace shortly after 1 o'clock, and inspected
it, and also the mausoleum, gardens, and stables, and sat
down to luncheon shortly after. At '..t3 minutes past 3 they
drove throgh the polio= to Bothwell-bridge, and went
end visikd Bothwell Castle and Blantyre Priory, returning
in the evening thrmgh the ducal policies to Clyde-6'ldg*
sod from thence to Wiebaw House. The visit was of •
private character. We believe it is the first occasion in
which any of the royal family has been in Hamilton.
