THE PRINCE OF WALES.


The journeyings of the Prince OF Vale

occasioned our western fellow citizens consi,
cradle wholesome excitement and both III

be greatly pleased A? with their western exper
ences At Cincinnati, last Saturday, he a
tended bail at Pixies opera house, given
do him honor. His two most notable exper
ences in Cincinnati are described as follows =
He danced first with the wife of the pre-
prietor of the theatre, Mrs. Pike. There wer
perhaps one hundred wel.dreSsed people i
the room, while the rest were awkward, il
hammered, ungainly, and dressed in the mos
marked wretched taste. Miss Groesbeck, 81:

congress, was the belle of the evening. Sh
laughed and chatted, danced and firted wit
the prince in the most bewitching manner
and completely bound him hand and foot TO
the brief hour of her triumph.
On Sunday the prince went to St. John s
Church in the morning, preceded, accompa-
MED and followed by a vast procession OF
sight-seers. Bishop McIvane officiated, aid.
ed by three other cergymen. He preached
very powerful sermon from the ninth verse of
the seventh chapter of Revelations. The
prince has at no time been so greatly interest
ed in a discourse as in this, and when the
bishop closed his sermon, with few earnest
words Of warning to the prCtiigate young, and
urged them to seek early the straight and
narrow path the eyes of the youthful prince
were dmned with tears, and an audible sigh
passed his half.closed lips The prince the
Duke of Newcastle and Lord Lyons paid their
respects to the bishop after the service, and
thanked him for lis words Of COUNSEL
Sunday evening he heard sermon on "the
.obduracy of the human heart" and the next
morning went to Pittsburg A dispatch from

cheerful as crickelsthat they are altogether
untrOubled with cares for the morrow-in
short, that they are the 'happest and most
contented peasantry in the world. If he has
philosophical turn of mind, the Prince acW
be amazed at the StupendouS tody Of the fanatics

abolition of negro servitude in the southern
States when it is so obvious that the condition
OF the slaves is beyond Moderation, and that
their entranchisement would expose them to
lncalculabe privations and misery"
a ball is talked of at Richmond, and one
wealthy gentleman is willing to pay half the
expense, 'if the honor of opening the ball with
the prince shall be profiered to his daughter"
There is, however, a mistake, somewhere, for
the prince and his suite will spend the next
Sunday in New York, after visiting Baltimore
and Philadelphia, on the way from Washing

1t is respectfully suggested, that, in New
York, the prince should attend st. Paurs
church, "where his grand uncle, William w.,
attended on corresponding occasion in 1880. ="
The New Workers are greatly exercised about
the ball to be given there. "An Artist" writes
to one OF the morning papers, in considerable
excitement, and greatly interests all the ladies
by criticisng as follows the color proposed for

Gov. Morgan states in letter to the mayor
of Albany that the prince will arrive in that
city "about the 10th of October" From AL.
