THE PRINCE OF WALES CONIyG

Let our best society rejoice: royal prince is
coming to America. Not poverty-strckcn Ger
man or Italian prince but the heir apparent to the
crown Of Great Britain. despatch from Canada
says that the Prince Of Wales may be expected to
arrive at Quebec by the next Canadian ocean mail
steamer. If this is a correct report, the Prince is
now on the seas for the Quebec steamer is the
Ocean Queen. which sailed from Liverpool Aurust
24th, and will arrive in four or five DAYS The
Canadians are among the most loval of British
SUBJECTS and they will, of course give an enthus-
astic welcome to their Queens son and future king
No prince royal of England has visited America
since the Duke of Clarence, afterwards William
w., came on a man-of.war, in which he wasa mid
shipman.
As the Prince of Wales is avowedlv on his tray

filling his mind with knowledge of all kinds of
course he will not 90 back to Europe without visi-
ting the United States The great agtating oues-
ton Of the country will therefore become How is
he to be received? OF course New York will throw
itself at his feet and kiss the royal hand. There
will be military reception, fremen's parade a
banquet at the Fifth Avenue hotel, a ball at the
Academy of Music, and probably the climax of
glory will be reached by the Princes bling invited
to write for the New York Leiger. Here in Pbila-

the Princes views on Mr.. Buchanan policy
For the information of the inquiring world we
state that his royal highness Albert Edward Prince
of Wales, Duke of Saxony. Prince of SAKE Coburg
and Gotha, Grand Steward of Scotland, Duke of
Cornwall and Rothsay, Earl of Chester, Earl of
Carrick and Dublin, Baron Renfrew, and Lord of
the Isles, is nearly Is years old, having been born
November 9th, l84l. He is a well trained and well
informed youth, not vigorous in health, nor
brilliant in intellect but quite clever enough
for sovereign of a Free constitutional government
like England whose worst fate would be to have a
king of great mind and lofty ambition, that would
carry him beyond the legitimate restraints of Par
Lament and Ministers. He has Travelled over cen
trail and southern Europe during the last year or
two, and has been kept under supervision that
has restrained him from any undue indulgence in
the vices of many fashionable youths on their trav-
els. His European tour was partly to give him an
opportunity for looking after a wife amo1g the
Protestant German princesscs. We regret that we
cannot giv9 any assurance that he will look for a
wife in this country-the ROYAL Marriage Act
would scarcely allow that So our young ladies
need entertain visions Of becoming Princess of
Wales, or Queen of England. - Philadelphia Bul-
