A New Excitement.

Ii is said that New York, which can bear
any amount of excitement, is all agog for the
arrival of the Prince Of Wales, and that the
6 Best Society,"" headed by FLORA MCFLIM-
sEY, will rush home in hot haste from the
Springs, to welcome The Prince of Wales
Alas, poor TOMMY! His almond eyes would
drop scalding tears and his yellow cheeks
would turn scarlet, if he could see how soon
he is forgotten. If TOMMY could now return
to New York he would attract no more no.
tice than any other gentleman of color. Even
the "Great Eastern " is forgotten, that most
miraculous achievement OF the mechanical
skill and commercial enterprise of modern
times-that majestic monarch of the deep-and
the {" best society" hurries TO throw itself al
the feet Of the Prince of Wales.
Twenty years ago, the Prince de Joinville,
son of the then French king, visited New York
in his splendid frigate, La Belle Poule, and
created a vast sensation among the best So
cie:y of New York in that day. few
months since he passed through the same CITY.

ferred their allegiance to the Prince of Wales,
and he will find that, not even in Cockney
London has rank such obsequious admirers
as in Republican America. If, however. he
should chance hereafter to lose the proud po-
sitiou which he has now in prospect, and then
visit this country, he will learn a lesson of the
mutability of popular favor more impressive
than any he can read in the pages of history.
We only hope that the accomplished gen.
tlemen in the suite of the royal visitor will
not confound the whole of this large country
with the great cities through which they will
pass. We trust they will impress upon the
mind of the Prince that the f1unkeyism which
awaits him is local custom of paryenu
cockney circles, and not an attribute of genu-
inc American character. Whilst in every part
OF the United States a representative of the
British crown will be received with courtesy
and respect, the reign of toadyism is not co.
extensive with the limits of the United States.
