&sew% passed through this town ea route for Balmoral.
His royal highness, who travelled in a mhos carriage belong-
ing to the London and North Western Railway, arrived at
the New•street Station from Bristol by the 10.18
ordinary train on the Midland line. The fact that he was
coming through wee kept as private as posdble, but
as is frequently the case, the " secret" rased out, and
there were a number of ladies and gentlemen on the plat-
form, anxiously waiting to catch a glimpse of the young
Prince. The train ran into the station almost punctual to
its time. Arrangementa had been made for his royal
highness to alight and partake of refreshment in an
apartment specially appropriated to the purpose, at the
Great Queen-street side of the station, but he declined
doing se, and partook of some coffee and breed and butter
in the carriage in which he was seated. The refresh.
mode were provided by Mr. Scott, of the Queen's
Hotel. About a quitter of an hoer was occupied by the
alight repast and the changing of the engine, and at the
expiration of that time the teaks took ha depereare to
Stafford, where the special portion of it, we understand,
was to be attached to the baited mail for the north.
Excellent order was priesreed an tbs platform during the
brief sojourn of the Prince, and Mr. Robinson, the
station•unater, and Mr. Wyatt, the inspector, were
present to see that their inotruatloos were duly
carded out, and to do all that was requisite for the
comfort and convenience of the Prince and his attendants.
Mr. Needham, of the Midland, and Mr. G. P. Neale, al the
Loo4oa and North-Western Company, accompanied the
train from Bristol, the Wier gentleman taking charge of it
as far as Carlisle. His royal Wiliam was expected to
arrive at Balmoral about ten o'clock this morning.—Bir-
