The Prince and Princess of Wales.

The Prince and Princess of Wales left Perth en
route for Abergeldie on Saturday forenoon, at 15
minutes past eleven o'clock. When the royal pair
had taken their places in the railway saloon car-
riage; Mr. Greig, of Glencarse, presented to the
Princess a bouquet of beautiful flowers, which her
Royal Highness graciously acknowledged. The
royal train left the station amid the enthusiastic
and prolonged cheering of those assembled on the
platform.

At the Perth and Coupar-Angus stations, scareeiY
a person was to be seen. Indeed, it did not seem
that many knew it was the royal train which was
passing, for here and there at sidings, a little
distance from a station, might be seen servants who
never raised their heads when the carriages svvePt
past.

The royal train drove into the Ferryhill June"
tion, Aberdeen, at two o'clock sharp. As the train
steamed into the junction a loud and hearty cheer
was raised by the multitude, and immediately and
very courteously acknowledged by the Prince. The
cheering being repeated again and again, the Prince
took the Princess by the hand and led her for-
ward, when she also graciously acknowledged the
hearty reception given her. The Prince, Who
seemed in excellent health and spirits, conversed
very affably with several persons in the statien, but
the Princess, it was generally remarked, looked
pale, and as if somewhat wearied. The train re•
mained about ten minutes at thejunction, when the
Deeside Company's engine having been attached, 501
the directors taken their places, the train move"
out of the station amid loud cheering and the waving
of hats and handkerchiefs. Except two or three
minutes at Banchory, there was no further stoppage
until the train reached Aboyne, at about 3.10'
There was also a considerable number admitted
within the station, and as soon as the Prince and
Princess stepped out of the saloon carriage a loud
cheer saluted them, which was repeated on their
appearing outside. An open travelling carriage
was waiting for them, and they immediately took
their seats in it. A detachment of the Marquis. of
Huntly'a Volunteers, under Captain Davidson, ac,ed,
as a guard of honour here. Atter a few minutes
delay, the carriage containing the Prince and Prin-
cess drove off, loudly cheered.
The next stoppage was at Ballater, where the
horses were changed. A triumphal,

rainy in the early part of the

THE EMPRESS EUGENIE will possibly soon carry
out her long-cherished intention of visiting Rome.

The rumour recently whispered about to the
effect that the Emperor Napoleon and the King of Italy
were to have an interview at the camp of Somme, towards
the
middle of next month, is, we aro given to understand
totally devoid of foundation.
There is little probability of the Emperor being
present at Cherbourg for the naval review (postponed till
the Ist of S,:ptember)—the proceedings at which review will
include experiments on a grand new cannon breech-loader
of great magnitude, the invention of his Majesty.

by a deafening shout of " Vivo le Roi !"
