Royal visit, taken in connection with the excellent
objects which this bazar is intended to promote,
nod the effect of bringing together one of the 113°5/
numerous and fashionable assemblages of the
season.

Even so early as eleven o'clock, when the s'ca.
ther indicated anything but an auspicious appe3P
ance, aitnough it afterwards cleared off, and the sun
shone out with brilliancy, the approaches to the
Horticultural Gtrdens were lined with carriages'

would be accompanied by the Prince of Wales, but
shortly after 12 o'clock their Royal Highnesses, at-
ended by the M ttchioness of Carmarthen, Llwat''

Royal party promenaded through the arcades,
pausing at each stall, shaking hands with a few of
the lady patronesses, and making liberal purchases
