LLWES, JUNE 8, 1918.

The Prinre and Princess of Hesse Hombourg,
ottelided by Lady Elizabeth Montaove and Baron
T. O'Naghten, between seven and eight o'clock
on Saturday eveniog honoured our town with a
visit, in an open landau, drawn by four poet-horses
f the IVlaite Horse Hotel, and followed by one
servant in Royal livery. The illustrious party
passed slowly through the main streets of the
Borough and the Clitf to the foot of Mailing Hill,
where they alighted and walked to its summit, and
hack to their carriage. On their return through
the town to Brighton, they were greeted on our
bridge by lond huzzas, and other expressions
of lopilty, by persona assembled there for that
purpose, whil:h litiptared to be truly gratifying to
his Serene Highoesi, and his amiable Princess in
particular, who condescendingly evinced their feel-
ings on the occasion by repeated nosh Of appreha-
tton. They stopped at the turn to the Castle, with
an intention of ascending it, hut, considering that
the neer close of the day would deprive them of the
pleasure of its prospects, and, perhaps. that they
might rujoy them at some future opportunity, they
changed their mind, and proceeded on to Brighton.
Lest Monday Captain Shiffner and Sir John
Shelley resumed their canvass of our Borough, and
finished it on Tuesday, after which they left us for
London. Their friends had a general meeting at
the Star Inn, on %Vednesday evening.
Mr. Scarlett, on Wednesday, personally waived
on the Electors, and solicited their suffrages at the
approaching General Election, and in the evening
met his foieutiS at the Crown bin, where his ha-
rangues were followed by loud applituses. On
Thursday evening Mr. Scarlett left Lewes for Lou-
don, where on his arrival he found a ith great
grief his brother, Dr. Scarlett, lately returned
from the Continent, lying at the point of death,
which shortly alter took place, as we nnderstaod,
from the effects of a raptured blood vessel, lie
was present at our lasi Election, and at the time of
taking the poll, by his observations, manifested
much acuteness.

Mr. Lloyd lit week canvassed the borough of
Shoreham, and [tine of Brainher, in which he ex-
perienced the most flittering encouragement, which
will no rLdild he confirmed by its successful issue.
The re-election of Sir C. AI. Burrell, Hart. we
anticipate to a certainty.
The veto. in guzzlers of Seaford are in high spi-
rits ; their old friend, Mr. rindar, made his ap_
pearance amongst them oft Thursday, when his ar-
rival was sumo:tired by the sound of music and
other derntinsiratiors of joy.
►Mr. Ellis went down on Saturday, and Sir Chas.
Cockerel was hourly expected to Inflow.
Last Mo►ulay a detachment of the 35th regiment
marched into this town on its route from Ililsea to
flex hill.

The late line weather has viven rapid growth to
the wheats on good lends; In many Pi t uat lone, they
