TRAVEILED PRINCES OE WI ES

There is a Prince of Wales on the seas, vending
his way, by course which Princes of Wales never
followed, to an object which none of the Young
gentlemen bearing that proud title ever yet cared
for. The earliest of those travelled youths went
abroad under mournful auspices; misery was the
ftiow- -way-tarer of some; others went with menace
against the land which they visited and where they
were little welcome. The first Of them who cleft
old England the ea'' was scarcely thirteen wears
of age when his mother Isabella led him to France,
and in few months of 1925 and the following year
unconsciously moulded him into the dethroper of
OF his father, Edward of Caernarvon.
The traces of the next travelling Prince of
Waesare found in words which still ring with the
echoes OF glory. Cressy, won at the age of fifteen
years, Polctlers IN princely manhood; and that
brilliant sojourn of nine years in Guinne which
rendered the Governorship of our Black Prince
there the admiration of statesmen, as his deeds of
arms had secured for him the love of every soldier
From his return thence in 1871 above fourscore
years elapsed before we meet with another Prince
of Wales leaving, in this most unwillingly,
the shores OF England for foreign land. A boy.

but now he begins seven years. exile, the happiest
years OF his chequered life, during which his
mother trained him to be worthy of the throne of
Henry the Sixth. When the lesson was completed
this Prince of Wales returned only to find bloody
grave at Tewkesbury
Again, half dozen princes succeeded to the
title, all housekeeping youths. Then comes Charles
Stuart, with his picturesque character and roman
TIC miseres. He goes to Spain not like his prede-
cessor, the Black Prince, in arms, to come back
victorious but in love, to come back baffled and
inundated. His was the most unpopular and up-
profitable voyage ever made by Prince of Wales.

the French coast, and it is freghted rarely.
Nobest OF all there, in point of rank is good bu-
mored lad OF sixteen, who occasionally takes the
helm in hand, and to whom Jermyn and Digby
speak with Difference. 1t is young Charles Stuart,
on his way to ST. Germans, not to set foot in En- G.
land again till long and weary years have passed
away, and finally open to him the golden opportu-
nifty which he 80 lamentably abused.

ute Dy courtesy OF their followers, but not by the
law of the land, they were necessarily soiourners

their will to notice the Princes of Wales of the
house of Brunswick These have travelled to, but
young Albert Edward. The first Brunswick
Prince with this English title did not step on En-.
gish ground till he had counted more than thirtv-
SIX years, and then he came among US with more
love Tor what he had left than regard for what he
was arriving at. One singularity concerning him
ls that he had very narrow escape of visiting
america, under circumstances altogether different
from those which mark the progress to Canada of
the present heir of England.
Lork Berkeley was so much moved nv the faro

and suffering lord, by kidnapping the Prince, and

be known to mortal man. If all the reported de-
tails OF this story be true, it displays wonderful
instinct OF race in the Berkeeys-one of whom lent
his castle for the "disposng" of the very first man

full knowledge of what is going on, and it is onIy
doubtful whether he earnestly forwards the views
OF this Murat party, or whether he simply watches
them for the ultimate purpose of thwarting their

agents have left Tuscany with arms and money,
and all of them are well known partizans of the
Murat family. The national idea of Italian union
or unity runs far greater danger in the south of
Italy from outward than from internal opposition.
