THE PRINCE OF WALES AT Silf FR N. 4.

On the 18th of May the Royal squadron arrived from
Rhodes in Scalanova Bay, and the Prino:e and suite land-
ing, got horses to proceed to the temp'Jrary terminus of the
Smyrna and Aidin Railway at ATasolook, where are seated
the ruins of Ephesus. An hour after the officers of the
Doris followed the same route. The Royal party made a
hasty examination of the sites, ancient and modern, the re-
puted ruins of the Temple of Diana, the Cyclopean walls,
the theatres, St. Paul's prison on the hill, St. John's
Church, the Cave of the Seven Sleepers, the shattered Sara-
cenic castle and mosques, and the site of the railway sta-
tion and new iron bridge over the classic Cayster. Mr. Fer-
gusson, the general manager of the railway, had erected
two large marquees and prepared a Royal carriage lined with_
silk, and the place afforded more accommodation for Cm
unexpected guests than it ordinarily does, as some hunfareds
of Armenian pilgrims had lately been brought down from
Smyrna by the railway for the St. John's pilgrimage. The
Prince did not, however, return, as he had intended, by the
special train of the railway, as he wishee, to sleep aboard
his yacht, and, the hour, being late, the, Osborne could not
have got round the long lonian peniraulas to Smyrna that
evening, where however, his approaching visit was made
known by telegraph.

The Prince employed the Sunday morning from early
dawn in sailing along the coast of Lydia and lonia in view
of the once famous Claros, Colophon, Lebedos, Teos, and
Chalcis, passing between the Isle of Scio and th main, and
so into the Gulf of Sm) rna. It may b• noted that at this
time at Sighajik the expedition of the Dilettanti Society,
under the direction of Mr. R. P. Pullen, one of the authors.
of Haliarnassus, is now engaged in extensive explorations.
On board the Royal yacht Divine service was in the c'oluse
of the morning performed by the Rev. Mr. Stanley,
It so chanced the submarine telegraph from Selo gave no
warning of the Prince's coming, but the Firebrand was his
avant courrier, and at the stated time, near aOOl3, the Doris,
convoying the Osborne, was seen approaching the city of
Stnyrna from the well-known Sanjak (Jastle.
In due time the Osborne and Doris came to anchor in.
front of the city, near the Firebrand, and Mehemed Re-
ehid Pasha, the Governor• General, proceeded aboard in his
calque. His Excellency, accompanied by Diran Effendi,
the chief interpreter, was courteously received by the Prince
in person. At this time the French Admiral, Touchard,
directed his band to strike up " God Save the Queen," the
Turkish battery near the Koniak saluted, and the French
frigate fired a guider volley.

_
The Governor-General, after a brief interview, came
ashore to await his Royal guest, whose landing was post-
poned till 3 o'clock, and the Prince and his suite beguiledi
the time by examining the beautiful scenery of the Homi,zio
city and bay from the deck.

At the appointed time the Royal barge left the 0 orne,
when the scene became one of great interest, for
'kUar-Ad-
miral Touchard signalled his two Consorts, P.nd soon the
flags and ensigns were seen ascending among
the rigging of
the ships, the English flag at the main and the yards
manned by sailors in white. The
ba-nd burst forth with
verse after verse of " God Save tli_e Queen," which pealed
over the bay; the crews answered each other's hurrabs, and
three quick volleys smartly fir ed greeted the Royal progress.
This was done in gallant style, and excited great admira-
tion. At a later period it was duly acknowledged by tha
English squadron.

On landing at tb.e English. Scala the Prince was recei ced
by the Governor-General and Mr. Mallouf, first Drag:aman
of her Britannic Majesty's Consulate, and a grAard of
honour, of which many members wore Crimea ;r medals.
The cr(Ywd was not large, and included some iew members
of the numerous English colony, whose greetings were
courteously received by his Royal liieiwass. The English
abstained from pressing themselver., on the notion of the.
Prince, from the desire to avoid trespassing on his comfort.
The Prince passed quickly tb'rough the courtyard of the
English Consulate, where horses had been prepared by the
Governor, and mounted, accompanied by three of his suite,
and attended by Diran Effendi and Shevket Bey, chief of
the Custom-house, appointed by the Governor to attend on
him. The horse mounted by the Prince bears the name of
" Alma" and last year won a " ladies' purse" at the Smyrna
races, though this year unsuccessful.
The Royal party was escorted by Shevket Bey through
the French quarter of the town and the new carriageable
street to the rbilway station, an establishment of great
interest to the Ottoman authorities, and the fine buildings
of which received the Prince's approbation. This station is
the work of an Anglo-Turkish company, and intended as
the great depot for the two main lines to the interior and
Constantinople, From the station the Prince was tonducted
to the new promenade of the city lately constructed by a
local company called the " Bournabat Road Co.inpany," and
which, as well as the railway, has been ermstructed by a
London contractor, Mr. T. R. Crampton . The road has
just been planted with trees at Mr. Crarr,pton's expense, and
as soon as the Prince got clear of Ve.e carriages and pro-
menaders he pushed his horse to the gallop and put the
surface to the test.

The chief objects of interegt here were the Baths of
Diana, the view of Mount Sipylus, and the sites of the
cities said to have constituted ancient Smyrna before
Alexander the Great built the present city, a tale now con-
tested by the followers of Raoul Rochette and the local
archaeologists. At the entrance of the Bournabat the Prince
examined the ancient remains in the Turkish cemeteries.
Shevket Bey was anxious the Prince should visit Mr.
Whittall or some of the English residents in Bournabat,
but, for some reason, this was not done. The party turned
back by the old road. The Prince wished to see Mount
Pagus, the Cyclopaan Acropolis, the resting-place of Alex-
ander in his dream, the walls of Lysimachus, the theatre
and tomb of Polycarp, but time was no longer left, and,
again crossing the railway at the Caravan Bridge Station,
and close to a coffee-house built by a Mahomedan gentle-
man, and dignified as " The Smyrna and Aidin Railway
Coffee-house," the Prince left behind him these evidences.
of Europeanised progress, and, accompanying a stream of:
camels, plunged into the picturesque Turkish town, pre—
ceding a throng of various-garbed Turks, Zebecks, Arabs.,
Negroes, Persians, gipsies, Jews, Armenians, Greeks, Le,..
vantines, and Frank-, ranging from the Turkish lady in
her black crape mask to the Armenian in full-swollen crino-
line ; and so, amid the streets of this city of mingled n.al i ons
and competing industries, proceeded to the shores of the
bay, where, bidding farewell to his official conductor., he
went aboard, and soon after midnight the Royal squadron
left the shores of Smyrna for the mirth.
The Prince remained strictly incognito during his stay,
and refused to receive any addresses or to see any of the
English residents.

An unfavourable impression has been produced
upon the market for English Securities by the ad-1
lieu; from America, which have induced sales
resulting in a decline of nearly a per cent., Consols
being 92 92k, less the dividend, for money and the
account. The New Threes and the Reduced are
918 ; E xchequer Bills, 10s. prem. ; India 5 per
Cent. Loan is firm at 1071 a ex div. ; and the New
21 per Cents are 751 ex div.
The demand for money, although slightly stimu-
lated by the preparations for to-morrow, the 4th of
the month, is still too moderate to create activity
in the general discount market, and the rates con-
tinue to range per cent. under the minimum of the
Bank of England.

The Strand Hotel shares are quoted at 1 fi prem.
The dealings in the Foreign Market have been
'of a limited character, and prices show very little
change. Turkish 6 per Cents are 811 ; ditto, 1858,
70}; ditto, Scrip, is firm at 21 prem. ; Russian
ditto at 1. a prem. ; Egyptian 7 per Cents. are steady
at lt, prem ; Italian have improved to 71; and the
Spanish Certificates are 911 being tolerably firm.
In the Railway Share Market the operations
have again been limited, and prices have in most
instances exhibited a further downward movement.
Great Westerns, Lancashire and Yorkshires, South
Westerns, and South Easterns have receded 10s.,
Midlands 55., and Great Northerns and North Bri-
tish 15s. Eastern Counties, however, have im-

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

TATTERSALL'S, MONDAY.

The bustle and excitement that annually attend the ad-
vent of the great racing carnival at Epsom, from one end
of the metropolis to the other, was, on the present oocasion,
more manifest than ever. The Corner was most nume-
rously attended, the room and lawn being extensively pa-
tronised by the leading magnates of the turf. lts avenue
from Grosvenor-place was all but impassable by the dense
throng assembled to gather the latest intelligence and the
final state of the odds. Speculation commenced early, but
made but slow progress for some time. At length a little
spirit was infused into the transactions by the avidity ex-
hibited to get on Neptunus and Argonaut; the former
speedily rose 6 to 1, with plenty of backers, and he left off
decidedly second favourite ; and the latter from 25 to 1, his
opening price, to 12 to 1, taken to win some thousands.
The Marquis was in great demand, but layers were ex-
tremely scarce, and at the close of the room we doubt if 3 to
1 could have been obtained. The hostility to Buckstone
was again in force; half a point more than his opening
price was repeatedly offered without meeting with a reply;
at last 7 to 1 in hundreds was laid by a wellknown book-
maker, and offered at the close. 100 to 6 each was taken
and offered about the Stockwell colt and Zetland, the latter
apparently out of favour. Ensign was inquired for, and,
after some fencing as to the price, 100 to 7 was noted down
several times. 40 to 1 each was betted to smaller amounts
against Caractacus, Malek, Lord Burleigh, and Notting-
ham. several of the u ,Al.lda di r I.lvu ware Wee mentioned,
and backed, but more for hedgingpurposes than any chance
they may possess ; their names will be found in the sub-
joined list of the closing prices. The Oaks was but slightly
noticed, the fillies mentioned being supported but for small
sums.

BETTING AT MANCHESTE fI—MONDAY.
There was no change in the position of the favourite, who
still remains very firm ; neither was there any alteration in
the quotation about Buckstone, but we saw no disposition
evinced to lay more than 6to 1. Neptunus was in great
force, 7to 1 being booked about him. Argonaut was freely
supported at 20 to 1; and Spite, who on Saturday was at
40 to 1, had friends to-day at 33 to 1. All the money that
could be obtained at 40 to 1 was taken about Malek. For
the Woodcote Stakes, 3 to 1 each was taken about Lord
Clifden and Saccharometer, but towards the close Lord
Clitden was supported at .5 to 2, and finished at 2to 1,
which was the highest offer. Closing prices :

Baily's ?Magazine for June contains an exquisite portrait
of Lord Staraford, and in the memoir which accompanies it
there is a lengthy exposition of his lordship's virtues and
his prowess as a sportsman. The " Gentleman in Black"
sketches the crack rides of the Pytchley Hunt with an ease
and truthfulness quite equal to onything of Nimrod's in his
best day. And John Davis contributes a spirited and
scorching ballad on the scratching of Old Calabar for the
Derby, which is certain to be appreciated by the friends of
that great but truly unfortunate horse.
