to shoot, some elks which have shown themselves
lately in that part of the country. Elk shooting, as
a sport, is one of the most fatiguing that can be en.
gaged in, because it is neceesary to remain the whole
day on foot, and occasionally to run for a consider-
able distance with the utmost swiftness, success de-
pending on the speed with which the spot is reached
that the signal proceeds from after this has once
been given. Nothing, however, has been thought a
trouble that could in any way conduce to the plea-
sure of their Royal Highnesses, and the King, with
the earnestness characteristic of all his proceedings,

determined, as a fitting climax to the agremens of
the week, that his royal guest should carry back

with him an elk of his own shooting, if this were
within the limits of possibility. The hunting party
was composed as follows : —The King, Prince Oscar,
the Prince of Wales, Prince llans of Glucksburg M.

Gude, Baron de Wrede, M. Sundiu, M. Schilot, M
Horn, M. Lagerfeldt, Couu‘. Leuvenhaupt, M.San-

dela, Grand Marshal of the Court; Mr F. Hamilton,
First Secretary to her Britannic Mjesty's

ion ; Mr Heneage, attache ; Col. Keppel, Hon. G,
Meade, Baron J. Beckfrus, and M. Oscar Dickson

With the exception of the Prince of Wales, Mr Ha

milton, and Mr Heneege, who travelled in plain
clothes, the members of the party wore the uniform
of the Royal Tiuntingelub,which consists of a green
tunic, long hunting boots with trousers to match
tucked into them, a bugle slung by the side, and a
Tyrolese hat and feather. The carriages composing
the special train were fitted up as sleeping apart.
ments, one being reserved exclusively for the King,
for Prince Oscar, the Prince of Wales, and Prince
Hans of Glucksburg. The spirit of adventure,
however, was strong and wakeful in many mem-
bers of the party, for, instead of retiring at once, as
they might have done very excusably after the
long excursion to Gripsholm the day before, and in
anticipation of the exertions yet to be made, they
moved about from carriage to carriage,- passing the
time very pleasantly, and converting the journey
into a pleasant festival. A short repose was gained,
however, before the train arrived at Orebro, where
about seven o'clock a.m. it stopped, and the Royal

excursionists breakfasted in the refreshment room
of the station. From this point to the edge of the
forest, a distance of about 14 miles, long side cars
drawn by four horses, carrying 10 persons each,
and with steps nearly reaching to the ground, cars
ried the party. The scenery passed through on the
route is much of the same character that is seen on
the way from Gottenburg to Stockholm—that is to
nay wooded hills and stony tracts alternating with
lakes, and between these, as connecting links, and
making the most of every foot of arable ground,
agricultural districts, in good but scarcely in scien-
tific cultivation. The perpetual pine tree of the coast
is replaced or varied as one advances inland by
birch and other woods of a less formal growth, the
leaves of which at this season exhibit many of the
wonderful tints of an American " fall." Orange,
melon, gold, flame colour—almost every shade that
it is possible to conceive is met in these miniature
forests; and that not in clusters or in sheets of va-
riegated leaves, but capriciously, and often excep-
tionally. One tall tree, perhaps, will drape itself in
the liveliest hues, while its neighbours retain their
original verdure. Having arrived at the edge of the
forest, the beaters—always so called, though
in this case their duty was to stand still—met
the Royal party, and prepared to form the cordon
meant to prevent the escape of the elks. Except the
King and the Prince of Wales, who, with Mr Dick-
son acting as guide. entered the forest in search of
game, every member of the party took up his posi-
tion with the beaters, Prince Oscar waiting and
watching at the post assigned to him like any one
else. The plan adopted is to send in a little dog,
specially trained, which hunts for the scent without
attracting much observation, until, having found
and followed it up, when nearing the elk it com-
mences to bark violently. The latter animal, follow-
ing its peculiar instincts, stares at the dog for some
time without doing anything, and then moves off,
at first slowly, but afterwards at a furious pace. It
is during this momentary pause of the elk that the
hunters must use their utmost exertions to come up
where the dog is, and the King and Prince were not
fortunate enough to meet with an elk all day ;
Prince Oscar, from his post of observation, saw one
and turned it back, bat was not near enough to shoot
with effect. Moreover, great caution is necessary as
to direction in such cases, the outside cordon know-
ing that thair friends are within the forest, and may
possibly be following up the elk at that moment.
About 5 o'clock, as evening was closing in, the royal
party were unwillingly obliged to withdraw. They
drove to Orebro, where a pleasant surprise awaited
the Prince of Wales in the shape of a salute from the
volunteers of the town, who were drawn up to receive
him. It is a fact speaking volumes for the character
of the people of Sweden, and for their contentment
with the Government under which they live, that
there are fully 20,000 of these volunteers, enrolled
in much the same wanner as our own, of whose effi-
ciency in military exercises favourable reports are
made. The gray uniform is not favoured in Sweden ;
the volunteer dress is of much darker colour, and of a
material capable of being used in the services of every
day life. The Prince of Wales, who had been unable

to fix any day during his stay in Sweden upon
which this large body of Volunteers could have the
opportunity of appearing under arms before him,
was much gratified at meeting this representative
body, which was carefully inspected by him. The
Royal party dined at the Castle of Orebro with the
Governor of the province, who proposed after dinner
" The Health of the King." His Majesty, in turn,
invited the company to drink " The Health of the
Prince of Wales," and the list of toasts concluded
with "The Health of Prince Hans of Glucksburg."
The Royal party then returned to the special train,
in which the provision made for sleeping was much
more valued than on their way to the forest, and
arrived in Stockholm about 4 o'clock this morning.
To-day, after so much fatigue, was naturally a day
of rest as regards the early portion, arrangements
having been made that the Prince and Princess of
Wales should appear in public at the theatre in the
evening. During the forenoon, and occasionally
during the afternoon, heavy showers of rain fell,
but in spite of these the King and the Prince, of
Wales, attended only by a single aide•deact;mp,
walked through the streets, visiting public or pri.
vate collections of interest, and entering shops occa-
sionally with a view of making purchases. ,
Among the many points of interest in Stockholm,
there is none probably greater in its way than the
mass of interesting items—it can scarcely be called a
museum—belonging to M. Christian Hammer, one of
the principal jewellers in the city. Sixteen years ago,
as M. Hammer takes pleasure in repeating, he was
beginning life at thebottom of the ladder. Now he
not only possesses the establishment of which he is
at the head, but hes invested in treasures of art
and curiosities of al. kinds an amount which the
lowest estimate places at £20,000. Sweden, at the
present moment, offers to persons with the taste and
means requisite for forming a collection opportuni-
ties perhaps unparalleled, and M. Hanmer, being
upon the spot, has had the good fortune to turn
these to account. That has been his secret, and
others may now profit by it. Daring the Thirty
Years' War the treasure chests of Europe were
ransacked by the Swedish armies and their contents
carried back to their native country. Ever since
these relics of bygone times have contained as heir-
looms in the houses of the nobles who originally
acquired them, or of their representatives, and might
have remained there for centuries to come but for
the law of succession introduced in modern times,
under which the right of primogeniture has been
abolished, and the extinction of the great properties
becomes accordingly but a question of time. As the
means of noble tami:ies become restricted the very
things which they most prize must come to the
hammer; and thus, not merely Swedish curiosities
are thrown upon the market, but, by curiously
roundabout process, foreign nations may again pos-
sess their own. The peculiarity of M. Hanmer's
collection is that he has acquired so much from time
to time that nothing less than a national gallery
would suffice for its adequate display. Pictures,
many of them good specimens of particular schools,
lean against tno walls by twenties; pikes, swords,
guns, and weapons of every kind are stacked to-
gether is sheaves without the possibility of classi-
fication, drawers are so full of medallions, watches,
cameos, &c., that to pull out any one of them and
" rummage" through it thoroughly would furnish
occupation for half a day. 300 poniards of every
epoch thrown into a box here, thousands of seals
and autographs in a cupboard there, chine,
plate, relics, musical instruments—it is the very
apotheosis of Wardoursstreet, with this remarkable
difference, that not an object in the collection is to
be sold. In any gathering of the kind, but con-
spicuously in that of M. Hanmer, all that can
be brought away is a general impression ; tut with a
view of showing the systematic manner in which
his purchases at least have been made, though they
cannot be displayed, I mention a few of the princia
pal articles. Perhaps the must unique of all the
glass cases is that containing the plate of the Swe-
dish guilds and corporations now obsolete. Some in
poor circumstances had their paraphernalia only in
zinc or tin, but the Breit mjority aspired, as is the
nature of corporations, to display. Thus, the chief
of the Guild of Tailors, when that influential frit.

ternity met in solemn conclave, instead of a presi-
dent's hammer, ruled the assembly with a silver
sceptre ; and:their silver cup of state exhibits on the
cover a thimble of large
proportions, upon which a
flying Mercury is descending with a scissors in one
hand, and a smaller thimble in the other. The gar•
deners' vase is a rich gold cup, shaped like a tulip.
The bootmakers were so wealthy that the heads of
their order, not content with having charge of the
cup in honour of their office for a year, suspended

to it, as is the fashion of some Volunteer corps now
a days, little silver shields, with inscriptions to the
glorifi3ation of the individual holder- Several well
bound volumes of c•fficial correspondence of the an
cient Doges of Venice are stored away in one press,
the set of rich filagree work given by Napoleon to
the daughter of his brother Lucien Bonaparte on the
occasion of her marriage in another, The breast-
plates, &c., used by the first Swedish Jews in their
religious services hang in the centre of a room. On
shelves at the sides are relics encased in a glass that
no doubt were looted centuries ago from the altars
of Catholic chapels. akA Sevres vase containing an
automaton piping bullfinch, presented, according
to the inscription, by the King to M. the Dauphin,
stands at one side of a doorway; at the other is a
morsel of human skin, prepared ages ago some-
where in Russia, and making an excellent material
for gloves, with regard to which there is a hazy tra.
ditional belief that the article was at one time in
considerable demand ; autograph letters of the year
1300, and a brooch of the Empress Josephine ; the
organ of Swedenborg, and keys of the age of bronze,
of which Chubb's latest designs are little better
than adaptations. Such are a few of the incon-
gruous items upon which the eye falls. Necessarily
in this vast heterogeneous gathering there are many
aree wout
is mixed, proportion toxed, and the
only regret is that they cannot be seen to better
advantage. One of the finest points in the collec-
doubtful, not to say indifferent specimens, but the

with
collec-
tion is its representation of the old Swedish porce%
lain manufacture, quite equal in point of merit to
those early Prussian specimens for which fabulous
prices are often paid. The Prince of Wales and
Earl Spencer, both connoi▪
sseurs in this branch,
used all their powers of persuasion to induce M.
Hanmer to part with some of the noble specimens
of old Swedish porcelain whi▪
ch he possesses, but it
was only at the instance of the King himself that
he was induced to do Ba•
In the course of the afternoon it became known
that the Prince of Wales had been so deeply inte-
rested by the pursuit of the elk, and was so sensible
of the disappointment that would be felt by the
King if he left the country without having at least
seen one of these animals, that his Royal Highness
consented to make a slight addition to his stay.
Monday will, therefore, be devoted to this new at-
tempt in a forest considerably nearer to Stockholm
than that of Keglan ; and it is probable that on
Tuesday, about 11 o'clock, the special train will
leave for Gottenburg with their Royal Highnesses.
Prince Oscar is to accompany them as far as that
port, and either in the Osborne, or in a vessel of
his own, from Helsingborg will cross over to Den•
mark to pay a return visit at Fredericsberg.
To.niglat at 8 o'clock there was a grand gala at the
theatre, which the Royal party attended to witness
a representation of " Faust." The house was
crowded in every part, and the leading characters
of the opera, especially that of Mephistopheles,
were creditably sustained. The front seats in the
Royal box were occupied by the
King, seated in a
central position, with the Princess of Wales and
the Queen of S weden on hi▪ s right; to his left, the
Prince of Wales and the Princess Theresa, wife of
Prince Augustus. With this Princess, at her pic-
turesque Castle of Haga, their Royal Highnesses
had dined before going to the theatre.
The Princess of Wales wore a pink dress of even

number hoisted upon the telegraph board, but the bit of the
bridle breaking, he did not go to the post. Prior threw him-
self off and fortunately escaped without any injury beyond
a scratched knee. The horse bolted, and was not caught for
some time. Not having come to the post all bets about
Professor became void.

Portland made play, followed by Bracknell, Zodiac, and
Wrangler, Meanwood and Sir Bobby lying off, to the first
fence, where they all refused except Ballycassy and Brack-
nell. Portland lost so much ground that he was stopped,
and at the second fence Zodiac refused, and could never be
got over. Soon after Meanwood refused, and on passing
the Stand the first time Ballycassy held a clear lead, fol-
lowed by Bracknell; Sir Bobby lying third, and Wrangler
fourth. On the far side of the course Bracknell ran up to
Ballycassy, and Sir Bobby crept up, whilst Wrangler gra-
dually dropped into the rear—but both he and Sir Bobby
subsequently got nearer the leading two. On entering the
meadows Bracknell took up the running in the next quar-
ter of a mile, but was headed by Ballycassy, who was joined
by Sir Bobby before reaching the last fence, to which the
pair raced, and Ballycassy falling, Str Bibby came away
and won in a canter, nothing else being near. Wrangler
also fell at the last fence, and Mr Frank Lotan dislocated
his shoulder. None of the other jockeys or horses who
came to grief were injured.

EDINBURGH AND LO THIANS CLUB MEETING.
The annual meeting of the Edinburgh and Lothians
Racing Club was opened on Wednesday over Musselburgh
course. The weather was all that could be desired for such
a meeting, being clear and temperate, and the course was in
capital condition for running. There was an unusually
large turn out of spectators on the Grand Stand, among
whom were several of the gentry of the district, including
Lard Binning; Sir John Don Wauchope ; Hon. Captain
Sandilands ; Hon. Mr Bruce Ogilvy; Mr Ramsay of Barn-
ton; Mr Dewar of Vogrie ; Mr Inglis of Redhall; Mr
Sharp of Hoddam ; Mr Wilson of Wester Cowden; Mr,
Usher of Stodrig ; Mr Currie, Hulkerston ; Major Wynn
Captain Campbell, &c., &c. The Provost and Magistrates
of Musselburgh, and a number of the members of the Town
Council of Edinburgh were also present. The attendance
of ladies on the Grand Stand, however, was much smaller
than on previous occasions. The turn out of spectators on
the Links was not so large as used to be seen at similar
meetings in the olden times, but larger than has been seen
of late. In the paddock there was a crowd of book-
makers, who shouted their offers with most vociferous
energy. Money changed hands very readily, and it was
generally believed that the bookmakers had made
a good return from the day's running. The event
of the day was the Lothians Handicap, which caused
an immense deal of speculation. Borealis was the favou-
rite, and was backed by many for even money agiainst the
whole of the nine other horses in the field ; but in many
cases the confidence in this animal had somewhat abated
during the last two or three days, and those who had got a
good " tip" went in for Moose. When the race commenced
Borealis appeared in the rear, and hardly ever showed in
the lace. At the second last turn, when she was improv-
ing her position, she suddenly swerved, and thereby lost all
chance of making a good appearance at the finish. To the
consternation of her backers, she came in fourth ; but not-
withstanding the loss Bustaiced at the toot of the course, it
was generally considered that she should have been better
up, and many of the spectators remarked that she had been
too strongly pulled. The other races were closely contested,
and as a whole the racing of yesterday was as good as has
been seen on Musselburgh Comae for many years.
The following is a record of the running :
The Volunteer Stakes of 6 sovs each, 2 it, with 25 sovs
added, for all ages. Two-year-olds, Est SA) ; three, Sst
711); four, 9st 61b; five and upwards, 9st 10:b. One

Betting-5 to 4on Nothing More ;3to 1 against St.
Alexis and Queen of Crystal; 4 to 1 agst any other:

running to the bottom turn, when Gayour collared her, and
came in an easy winner by two lengths. Two lengths be-
tween secend and third.

_ Betting--3 to 1 eget Adrift, 7to 2 agst Tam Glen, 4to
1 agst Mystery, 6 to 1 agst Rival, 7 to 1 agst Louis
Napoleon.
Nicety jumped off with the lead and retained it to the back
stretch, where Mystery and Adrift improved their pace,
and rapidly drew upon and passed the mare. These two
animals came together at the bottom turn, and a splendid
race took place from the distance, Mystery winning by half
a head. Tam Glen was a good third.
The Lothians Handicap of 10 says each, 5 ft, and only 3 to
the fund if declared by Sept. 28, with 200 sovs added.

Betting-2 to 1 against Borealis, 2to 1 and 6to 4 agst
the Moose, 5 to 1 eget Avenger, 5 to 1 eget each Honest
John and Miss Pickle.
After a false start, the horses went away in fair style.
On passing the post the first time, Honest John was lead-
ing, the Moose lying second, and Borealis last. At the
bottom turn of the straight run home, Honest John, the
Moose, and Miss Pickle came together; but Miss Pickle
soon fell behind and the race lay between the Moose and
Honest John, who made a splendid race home, which re-
sulted in favour of the Moose by a length. Miss Pickle a
good third. Borealis was a bad fourth.
The Auld Reekie Stakes of 3 sovs each, with 25 soya added.
Three-yr-olds, Bst 71b ; four, 9st 71b ; five, 9st 121 b ; six

Betting-2 to 1 agst Reviver and St. Alexis, 3to 1 agst
Eola, and 4 to 1 agst the others.
After a false start, the horses, with the exception of St.
Alexis, went off in a cluster. St. Al. xis, however, soon
recovered, and half way round the course got to the front.
He rapidly improved his pace, and was a long way ahead
at the bottom turn, where he broke down in consequence
of the breaking of a bridle rein. An easy race ensued
between Reviver and Ostentation, and the former won by a
length and a half. Three lengths between second and third.
