and popular demonstrations all along " the line Of
march 2 and he was everywhere received with dis
tinguisl1ed honors and great respect. The British
are the most loyal people in the world, whether at
home or in the colonies; and when they saw the
man who was to be their future sovereign, they
were guilty Of almost az great extravagances Of
conduct as the people of New York city would be

nature, occurred in Canada the attempt Of the
Orangemen 10 force the Prince to pass under the
arch which they had erected. The attempt failed,
as it ought to have done. In all other respects,
the youthful Baron has had Jolly good time Of it
III Canada. He has danced all night till broad day
light at balls all along his roate-he has known the
luxury oi travelling on an American steamboat
he has gone a-fshing-he has listened to, and re-
pied 10, inDumerabe addresses Of weleome-and
he has seen all the pretty girls that the country
could produce. we would like 10 know who has
bad a better time generally than the Prince Of
Wales has had for the last four or five weeks.
Az last accounts--e]ose followed BY the newt
able Jenkins-he was III Detroit. Gen. Cass lives
in Detroit when he is at home aud the old General
happens to be at home at the present time. He is
familiar with tfe customs Of courts, and has made
his bow many a time inroyal drawihg.roons. Ne
shall rely upon the venerable Secretary of State
to do the agreeable to the young Prince during MS
soiourn there. and we are warranted in saying that
it will be done alt right Let not our readers
be uneasy. Gen. Cass has graduated in the sa-
looms Of Paris and, in ali matters Of politeness
and courtesy, is entitled to his diploma.
The next point Of 'gistation,' we suppose, will
.sae Washington City. Here, we are told, the old
public functionary anSiously awaits him. Seven
years ago, when the Prince was small boy, the
Old public fnnctionary was American Minister at
the court of st. James and we dare say the youth
ful Prince at that time looked at him. as we did
when we first saw him, wi;h feelings Of awe, admi-
ration and establishment. His immaculate white
craYat his sober suit Of black, his snowy locks,
and the general innocence of his looks, made us
believe the old public funettonary good man as
well as a great one. We little thought that there
would ever be such a thing as Covode Commit
tee raised on him, and that Congress would be
after him with the sharpest Of sharp sticks for
completely in some very questionable transactions
However, all this will not interfere with his dis
uensation of the rites Of hospitality. On this
point we are as ready to trust him as we would
Gen Cass. His dinners, We are told-We do not
sneak from experience-are gotten up by Gautier
and Boulanger, two eminent Washingtonan art
ists"-his wines are eptionable-and those
who affect the funetionary's own tipple-whisky
straipht-will find it Of the bestPennsylyana dis
ss4illation. On the whole we do not feel uneasy
about the Princes entertainment in the Federal
eity we have q Democratic President, it IS true
but your real Democrat ia generally the greatest
q4nairer Of arstocratic usages and customs; and
the old public funetionary, whatever Mr. GoTode
may have to say Of him IN other respects, Is not
deficient i'll all The ceurty graces and reilnements
Of the beat society. IL Bean Hickman can be kept
from charging the Prince "a white check fer the
honor Of an Internationally which the Beau

OF that city is altogether immense When we
reflect upon the demonstrations they have made

hitters and the eXtrayagant honors to the bogus
nrinces OF the Japanese Embassy, we look to their
reception of true Prinee--a future Kns-with
feelings Of painful apprehension. We are afraid
.shat they will absolutely eat him up. But if the
Prince of Wales wishes to see the best type OF
american society, let him come among the people
If the South. We will not make a noisy fuss and
narade over hin-but we will show him a race OF
men unsurpassed for all manly and noble virtues,
and of women peerless in beauty and refinement,
and community enjoying greater average
amount of happiness and comfort than can be
found anywhere else, we confidently believe, upon
Ethe face of the globe.
