the Princess, for whom these special pre 44'4 --, 144,,V:=-..
have been made, will scarcely be compensatea Nu a s
by the genial and courteous presence of her royal
husband. After a short stay here, and after par-
taking of lunch, the Prince will visit the staple
manufactories of the town—those of Messrs. Aelt-
royd, Messrs. Crossley, and Mr. Holdsworth. All
these mills will be in full operation, and, with the
exception of the hotels and refreshment-rooms, they
arc likely to be the only places in the town where

situated. The prospect from this part is almost un-
equalled; nor do the long stalks of chimneys which
occasionally appear from between the bases of the
lofty hills at all disturb its beauty ; the very smoke
they give is almost a picturesque adjunct that sets
off the foliage above them and the cool rounded
blue of the distant hills to an advantage which those
who only see smoke and stacks of chimneys, pure
and simple, would scarcely credit. On the right of
the road, on the most elevated part

orphanage which, judging from its extent and

From this the Prince proceeds by the King's-read
to the People's-park, the gift of Sir Fra
to the town of Halifax—a park which, though only
12 acres in extent, has been laid oat in the
.most
tasteful mannerby Sir Joseph Paxton, and enriched
with fountains and statues. From this the proces-
sion passes in sight of the range of large and beauti-
ful almshouses erected by Mr. Ackroyd, and thence,
by the north gate, to the Piece-hall, a huge square
enclosure, where in the days of hand-loom weaving
the masters used to come on Monday and sell the
proceeds of their looms piece by piece. Round this
vast quadrangle, and enclosing it on all sides, are
two-storied buildings of some height looking on to
the square, and the windows and balconies of these
structures give to the enclosure (which is as large as
Trafalgar-square) the appearance of a square colos-
seum. In this square, on a vast lofty tier of benches,
are to be assembled the children from the schools of
all religious denominations in the neighbourhood of
Halifax, to the number of 17,000. These are to sing
the National Anthem and the Hallelujah chorus,
and a song in honour of the Prince of Wales. This
is likely to be the prettiest and most effective
portion of the whole day's programme, and, above
all, has the unusual merit of being a performance
that the Prince has not seen elsewhere before. From
the Piece-hall the procession afterwards passes by
North-bridge to All Souls Church, on Haley-hill,
where Mr. Gilbert Scott has erected a gem of Gothic
architecture, the church founded by Col. Ackroyd,
and said to be the most beautiful modern structure
of the kind in the kingdom. A short stay will be
made here to inspect the interior, and then the party
return to the Town-hall, which will be formally
opened by his Royal Highness, who, after a brief
lunch, will hurry off to the station to commence his
long journey back to Osborne.
The festivities at this town, however, by no means
terminate with the departure of the Prince, but, on
the contrary, will be prolonged in feasts, banquets,
fireworks, and illuminations till the end of the week
almost.

MONDAY NIGHT.

At five minutes past three the Royal train ar-
rived at the station, the platform being occupied by
the Mayor, Mr. John Crossley, the corporation, and
a large assemblage of ladies and gentlemen. A bat-,
tery of guns, mounted on the Beacon-hill, and
manned by the Heckmondwike Artillery Volunteers
fired the Royal salute. The Prince, who was ac-
companied by Sir C. Wood, General Knollys, and
Major Teesdale, was received with the ordinary
presentation of arms by the 4th West York Rifles,
under the command of Colonel Akroyd, and he at
once proceeded, accompanied by his suite, to the
carriages provided by the Mayor and Sir Francis
Crossley, M.P., in which they
were rapidly
driven to Manor-house, the residence of the Mayor.
The railway station-yard was densely crowded,
but, owing to the rapid manner in which the Prince
was conducted to his carriage, popular enthusi-
asm was only partially evoked—in fact, it was
not known by the uninitiated that the young man
plainly dressed in mourning costume was the future
King of England until the equipage began to roll
out of the station-yard, and then a little disappoint-
ment was expressed that he had not been identificd.
