The ball in the Exhibition Palace, which was kept up
with great spirit until this morning, was a very magnifi-
cent affair. The Dublin papers are very full in their
descriptions and very warm in their praise, some of them
even going the length of publishing the names of every-
body present—ladies and gentlemen. The managing
committee were, however, very discourteous to the press, the
Dublin representatives not excepted. They refused ad-
mission to all and sundry to witness the preparations --
they point-blank declined to allow anybody except work-
men, and of course the Lord-Lieutenant and suite, to see
the completed coups creeil on the evening before the ball.
The Princess of Wales wore a dress of St. Patrick- blue
satin, with bouillons of blue tulle, and a deep fringe of
rich Irish lace, presented to her, as you will recollect, by
the ladies of Ireland on the occasion of her marriage in
163. The dress was trimmed with bouquets of silver
shamrock and pinkroses. The Princess wore a tiara of
diamonds, a corsage, n( cklace, and bracelets of pearls and
diamonds, Victoria and Albert Order, Danish
Order, and the Order of Catherine of Russia.
His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales was dressed as
colonel of the 10th Hussars. The Prince of Wales led the
Marchioness of Abercorn, and Prince Teck, the Prince of
Saxe-Weimar, and the Duke of Cambridge led the Ladies
Hamilton to the throne; all standing there, the company
also, I need not add, while the band played " God save
the Queen." The " Denmark Quadrille " was opened by
his Royal Highness and the Marchioness of Abercorn, the
Lord• Lieutenant and the Princess of Wales, Prince Teck
and the Marchioness of Carmarthen, the Duke of Cam-
bridge and Lady Alberta Hamilton, the Prince of Saxe•
Weimar and Lady Georgina Hamilton. The waltz was
opened by his Royal Highness and Lady Albertha Hamilton
and Prince Teck and Lady Georgina Hamilton. At a later
hour in the evening his Royal Highness danced in the transept
with Lady Albertha Hamilton, and continued amongst the
general company for half an hour. Prince Teck also
danced with Lady Georgina Hamilton, and Lord Strath.
nairn had the honour of dancing a quadrille with the
Princess of Wales. Dancing was continued by the Prince
till two o'clock, when he led the Marchioness of Abercorn
to the dais on which supper was laid. Her Royal High-
ness was conducted to the dais by the Lord-Lieutenant.
At the conclusion of supper dancing was resumed, and in
about an hour after the royal party left, escorted to the
Castle by a troop of the 10th Hussars and the Carbineers.
By the company dancing was continued till a late hour
this morning. The ball was one of the grandest features
in the royal programme, and has proved what it promised
the most magnificent display in Irish history.
I was able to inform you in a recent telegram, only in the
briefest possible way, that • his Royal Highness the Prince
had during the course of the afternoon paid a visit to the
Roman Catholic College of Maynooth. This wonderful
patronising of the Roman Catholic body, so remarkable a
feature of a present royal visit, is causing not a little con-
trove: sy here amongst those extreme Protestants who
cannot understand a toleration of the Roman Catholic
religion.

At Maynooth the Prince was received by his Grace the
Duke of Leinster and the Marquis of Kildare, the presi•
dent, the professors, and a large assemblage of people,
who welcomed him most heartily. The students ap•
geared in academic costume, and were most vociferous in
their enthusiasm. The president, the senior students of
each of nine classes, the parish priest of Maynooth, and
various rev. fathers were severally introduced to his Royal

On leaving the president's apartments the Prince and
party were conducted to the great northern cloister. The
passages leading to the cloister, and the cloister itself,
were lined at each side by the whole body of students,
who cheered the Prince most warmly and repeatedly. At
the extremity of the cloister there was erected a dais,
above which was hung a likeness of the Queen. The floors
of the passages and cloisters along which the Prince
passed were covered with crimson cloth.

The Prince next visited the refectory and the library,
the latter c3ntaining upwards of 40,000 valuable works.
After inspecting the library, the Prince returned through
the lines of students, by whom he was again loudly
Cheered. The Prince shook hands with the president,
and expressed his gratification at what he had witnessed.
The party re-entered the carriages, and left the college by
the western gate. The students renewed their acclamations
on the departure of the Prince, who bowed several times
in a marked manner.

Carton, the splendid seat of the Duke of Leinster,
was next visited. As the Prince drove through the town
the people, who remained waiting for his coming, greeted
him with renewed plaudits. The Prince and party lunched
with the duke and the members of his family at Carton,
and visited the gardens and conservatories, &c. After a
consderable stay they drove by the road to Dublin,
passing through Ce:br:dge, Castletown demensc, along
the Liff,y road, through the Strawberry-beds, and
arr:ved at t. e Castle at twenty minutes after seven
o'clock.

The royal weather seems to be over. It rained heavily
all last night, it was raining fiercely this morning, and
though we have had occasional gleams of sunshine, it lu.s
been raining almost incessantly the entire day. The Prince
and Princess of Wales with their suite passed out, for the
first time since their arrival, in close carriages. They left
the Castle about half-past one amid a perfect torrent,
and drove rapidly to the Westland-row Station, where
they took special train to Powerscourt. The entrance
to the station was tastefully ornamented, and there
was a considerable crowd present on the platform to see
their I.oyal Highnesses' departure. Along the route, how-
ever, there was not much enthusiasm—none at all, in fact,
except such as could be evoked under a forest of
umbrel'as shivering and quaking under merciless showers
of rain.

The fligs and ornaments in the city have quite a woe•
oegone expression to-day. They present in their tossed,
twisted, draggled, and disordered condition very much
the appearance of a Donnybrook display after a general
row.
