Their Royal Highnesses the Princess of 'Wales
and the Crown Princess of Prussia, attended by the

drove out.

The Hon. R. H. Meade left Sandringham for
,own.

The festivities at Sandringham, in connection
with the celebration of the anniversary of the birth-
day of hie Royal Highness the Prince of Wales,
were in the main strictly of a private character,
and the large number of persons from the neigh'
bourhood who drove on the estate were disappointed
of seeing anything except the Prince and his party,
who were shooting in the neighbourhood of the
hall, and who were joined by the Princess of Arales
and the Crown Princess of Prussia.
About four o'clock on Monday afternoon the
children of the Sandringham, Wolferton, and Der-
singham schools sang a piece or two in front of the
hall, attended by the clergy on the estate, and were

afterwards provided with a sumptuous dinner in Li

part of the coach-houses fitted up as a chning-rooro•
Their royal highnesses and their roya 1 relatives
manifested great interest in the proceedings, and
the Prinee and Princess kindly presided au. the fes-
tive board. After their royal highnesses had re-
tired, and ample justice had been done to the repast,
the following toasts were given and enthusiastically
responded to :--" The Queen," " The Prince and
Princess of Wales," " Prince Alfred and the rest of
the Royal Family," " The Crown Princess of Prus-
sia," " General Knollys," and " The Equerries."
The cottagers and workpeople on tile estate also
had a dinner—Mr. Carmichael, the prince's steward,
presiding.

At half-past nine in the evening the approaches

to the hall were filled with carriages coutaining
visitors to an evening party given by their royal
highnesses—invitations to which had been stint to
the chief families of the western division of the
county.

The party comprised the Prince Frede.riclEWillianl
of Prussia, Prince Frederick of Denmark,, his Serena

Highness the Prince Edward of Saxe-Weimar,
Major Teesdale, Lieutenant-Colonel Rappel, son'
R. IL Maid, Lieutenant-General Knollys and Mrs.

Lund, Rev. G. B. Moron, the es-Mayor of Lynn,
Mr. L. W. Jarvis and Mrs. Jarvis, Captain and
Mrs. Campbell, Mr. and Mrs. Villebois, &c., to the
❑umber of 43. Dancing was kept up with great
spirit till a late hoar.

At the neighbouring town of King's Lynn the
festivities of the day were appropriately concluded
by an illumination which, for a provi.7cial town. and
raking into consideration the brief notice of the in-
tention of his royal highness to celebrate his birth-
day at Sandringham, did infinite credit to the loyalty
and public spirit of the inhabitants.
All the prince's tradespeople and many others

illuminated, and the general effect was striking. A
grand display of fireworks took place on the Tues-
day Market-place, and were witnessed by a vast
concourse of persons.

The bells of St. Margaret's Church continued
ringing till a late hour, and the public rejoicings
did not terminate till an early hour in the morning•
