The Prince and Princess of Wales.

SANDRINGHAM, Thursday.
Their Royal Highnesses the Prince of Wales and
Prince Louis of Hesse, with the gentlemen in atten-
dance and the royal guests, have been out shooting
during the early part of the week.
On Monday Prince Edward of Saxe-Weimar, the
Duke and Duchess of Manchester, the Earl of Sef-
ton, and Lord Beaumont arrived at Sandringham,
on a visit to their Royal Highnesses the Prince and
Princoas of Wales.

On Wednesday the West Norfolk " meet" was
arranged to be at Anmor, the seat of Mr. H. W.
Coldham, adjoining the royal estate, and as it was
understood that his Royal Highness the Prince of
Wales and his distinguished guests would join the
hunt, a very brilliant meet was anticipated. The
morning opened beautifully fine, the sun shining as
brightly as a May morning, and the interest attached
to the meet was neightened by the fact that this
was the first time the " West Norfolk" had been
honoured with the royal presence since the hounds
have been under the management of the popular
new master, Mr. A. Hamond, who has succeeded
Mr. Villebois. The scene was indeed a gay one ;in
the park in front of Anmer Hall it was computed
that there were not less than 700 or 800 persons
present. About 12 o'clock the Prince of Wales,
accompanied by Prince Louis of Hesse and Prince
Edward of Saxe-Weimar, with the Duke of Man-
chester, the Earl of Sefton, &c., arrived. Soon
after the royal party had arrived, Anmer woods
were drawn blank, and all trotted off to Fring,
about four miles distant, and drew the osier
car, when a fox was soon found, but was unfor-
tunately run into and killed immediately. The
hounds were again put in, and soon the welcome
cry of " Tally-ho ! Gone away !" was heard, and
Reynard, with his face towards Houghton, scampered
off, the new pack of hounds well after him. Some
capital sport was got.
The Duke and Duchess of Sutherland have left
Sandringham, having completed their visit to the
Prince and Princess of Wales.

Their royal highnesses gave a dance this evening
at Sandringham.

The Duke of Leinster will leave town to-morrow
to visit Mr. and Lady Jane Repton at their seat in Bed-

THE LATE VISCOUNT GORT.—At the desire of
her Majesty, Lady Augusta Stanley has written a letter of
condolence upon the death of the late Viscount Gort to his
bereaved widow, expressing her Majesty's sympathy in the
great affliction that has fallen upon her and the family of
that esteemed and lamented nobleman.

THE CASE OF CHARLOTTE WINSOR again came
before the Court of Queen's Bench yesterday. Mr.
Hannen, on behalf of the Crown, moved for a rule to show
cause why certain amendments should not be made in the
record of the trial which has been returned to the court.
The object of the learned counsel is to substitute a definite
for a vague form of expression in the document in question.
Mr. Justice Shee said that the bench would be happy to
agree to the proposed amendments if counsel could obtain
Baron Channell's sanction. Baron Channell subsequently
gave his consent, and the record was amended.
