The Prince and Princess of Wales.

Oa Monday evening the Prince and princesgt
attended by Licut,-General Knollys, CcPt. Grey'
Kingecote, and Mrs Stonor, left Frogmore
House about fie o'clock, the Prince and PrinceEn
each driving a pair of ponies, and PrEceedeti
through the Long Walk to Virginia Water. Oa
A
reaching the lake their royal highnesses amuse"
themselves with boating and fishing, and after-
wards dined with their suite in the Fishing Temple
on the banks of the lake. The royal party returned
to Fregmore late in the evening.
Yesterday afternoon the Prince of Wales, attended
by Capt. G. H. Grey, drove from Frogmore House
in a pony carriage to the banks of the Thanos97 at 6
point between the Albert and Victoria BridgeB'
Windsor Home Park, for the purpose of inspecting
a steam-ship propeller, invented and patented by
the Messrs Germane Brohcrs, of OA. Windsor'
The propeller, which has been applied to an iron
experimental boat, 45ft. long, 3ft. Gin. deep, and
sft. beam, drawing 2ft. 2ineat the stern and 12i0'
forward, consists of a small flat blade, 6in. by 1041"
fixed to an axle and crank placed at the side of the
keel near the stern, and is driven with great raPi4
dity with a very peculiar motion, resembling
in some respects the paddling of the foot °f
the swan while swimming. His Royal Highness
and Captain Grey having, gone on board the boat,
made a trip down the stream to the Old Windsor
Leek, running about seven' miles en hour, though
this speed is said to be nothing like what can to
attained with the proper amount of horse-power'
While proceeding down the. river a small model of
the propeller was exhibited to the Prince, the work:
ing of which was thoroughly explained by Mr. J'
Germann. His Royal Highness appeared Wish
pleased with the simple and effective manner of lie
working, and remarked that the motion was Much
preferable to that of the screw. On reaching 0-10
locks the craft's head was turned up stream, and
the Prince's party steamed back to the Ito.YS,
grounds in the Home Park, from whence they bad
started, and Inving landed, the Prince drove back
to Frogmore House.

In the evening the Prince and Princess made
another trip to Virginia Water in pony carriegesf
accompanied by a distinguished party of visitor!
and their suite. The Royal party were to dine 14

parish of Traquatr, Innerleithen, on Friday afternoon',
under the following circumstances :—Mr. John HePe'
butler, and Miss Langlois, housekeeper to Lady Louisa
Stuart, Traquair Housa with Mrs Addison and her sun' a
little,boy from Edinburgh, were on a visit'to the glen, tea
yelling in the Traquair-house phaeton. Immediately after
leaving:theglen gate on their return, the horse, which is a
somewhat spirited animal, started off at full speed, and con'
tinned to run at this rate till it.paseed Orchard Mains, a di"-
tamp 'of a mile,' Mr Hope, who was driving, being unable
to draw it up., Here the road makes a bend before corning;
to a bridge, and In taking this turn the phaeton owerVeu'
from the middle of the road and run up against the end of
one of the parapets of the bridge. The inmates of Orchard
Mains, who saw the accident, were immediately on the spot'
when they found the whole of the party more or less hurt'
and all,with the exception of the little boy, unable to spe3l''
Mr Hope nod Mrs Addison were lying in the Qusir, into
which they had been pitched over the bridge, which is from
12 to 14 feet high. The boy also had been thrown over the
bridge, and was lying on the bank by the side of the stream.
Mies Langlois was lying between the carriage and one °r
the walls of the bridge.. They were all soon conveyed to.
Orchard Mains, and a messenger despatched to Innerleithen
for Dr Co; who was promptly at the scene of the accident.
The boy, who escaped with least injury, is cut about the
face and slightly bruised. Mrs Addison was much stunned
and bruised, but is not seriously hurt. Mr Hope, who WO
insensible for some time after being taken out of the water,
must have been drowned had not assistance been near'
After being taken to Orchard Mains ho fainted two or throe
times. He was much stunned, and received several bruises
on the back and other parts of the body. Miss Langlois is
apparently the most seriously hurt. Besides being bruised
she received a lung deep cut on one of her legs, which re-
quired to be sowed. Fortunately, none of the sufferers Lea
any bones broken. The three first were able to proceed to
Traquair-house shortly after the accident, and Miss Latig,
lois was conveyed home later in the evening. Thoug feel
ing 'ec'-
a
ing their injuries a good deal, they were all going on favour-
ably on Saturday. The phaeton. was destroyed, but Ilia
horse escaped uninjured, the trams having come away fr°lll
the body of the machine and set it free.—e-Scotsnurn.

MONEY NAiKET

AND

COMARTICIAL INTELLIGENCE,

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK:
The general discount market is still disturbed by
the expectation of dearer money. Many parties
limit the time till to-morrow, when the usual weekly
Court of the Bank of England Directors takes
place. Accordingly bankers and brokers are in no
mood to transact business at present rates, and it is
only first-class bills that can be negotiated at 7 and
II per cent. Under these circumstances the com-
mercial public, whose position enables them, resort
for assistance to the national establishment.
The City of Baltimore has arrived from New York
With £47,842.
The Syria, which left to-day for Bombay, took
out £118,280.

There was a general advance in the foreign ex-
changes yesterday afternoon, consequent upon the
rise in the rate of discount.
The committee of the Stock Exchange have ap-
pointed Monday, August 1, a special settling day
In the following securities :—Hamber Ironworks
and Shipbuilding Company (Limited), in transac-
tions only entered into on and after May 11 to be
marked ; Societe Generale de l'Empire Ottoman,
in transactions only entered into on and after J aly
.13, but the shares will not be admitted to quotation
In. the official lists, the committee not being satisfied
With the manner in which the company has been
formed.

The Mining business of the week has been chitfly
restricted to North Pool, Seaton, Trelawney, North
Resewarne, East Grenville, Wheal Hearle, Grylle,
West Grylle, Spearne Moor, Providence, South
Gorland, Great Vor, Wheal Basset, Condurrow,
boleostb, Tincroft, Cook's Kitchen, West Condur-
l'ocr, West Seaton, New Seaton and Bryn Gwicg.
The rise in the standard for copper ores, the con-
tinued favourable price of lead, added to substantial
impr3vements and discoveries ought, and will en-
Shrine mining enterprises with peculiar interest as
regards the future, and we unhesitatingly recom-
mend our readers to avail themselves of the present
opportunity to purchase shares in well established t
and recognised dividend and progressive under-
takings, and whilst ruling depression continues.—

At Paris, this day, according to Mr. Reuter's
telegram, the Three per Cent. Rentes were 66f. 12c.

quieter appearance. The disinclination to speculate
18 now enhanced by the approaching fortnightly
settlement, which as usual will occupy the greater
part of attention. The Funds show no change, Con.
