. _

Their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess
of Wales and the infant princes will, according to
present arrangements, arrive at Sandringham House
from London on Tuesday next, and on the following
day it is expected their royal highnesses will pro-
ceed to Holkham, in order to be preesent at the
marriage of the Earl of Dunmore and Lady Ger-
trude Coke. The stay of their royal highnesses in
Norfolk will necessarily be limited, their royal high-
nesses returning thence to town. The improve-
ments on the royal estate are still in progress, and
it is fully expected that ere long the new mansion
will be commenced.
During the past winter a fine piece of road has
been made from Wolferton Railway Station to the
house, nearly three miles long, the carriage way be-
ing of the uniform width of about 24 feet. The
great advantage of this will be apparent when it is
known that the whole of this piece of road is public
highway, and as much for the convenience of the
public as for the Prince of Wales. This road, with
others constructed through the most picturesque
part of the estate, affords some charming drives.
The woods have been thinned, new shrubberies and
coverts planted, and beauty and order is fast suc-
ceeding the wild luxuriance which formerly existed.
Some old cottages, and a barn, which were a great
eyesore from the west part of the house, have dis-
peared, and their site is being planted with shrubs•
Additional sleeping accommodation is being pro-
vided in connection with the lodges; the new phew'
santries are increased to 'double their extent, and on
the table land immediately opposite these are the
royal kennels.

arrived at Maurigy's Hotel from Paris.
