SUMMARY OF THE PRINCES TOUR.
The progress Of the Prince Of Wales throughout the
British Provinces and the United States is one Of those
great historical events which will be handed down 70 pos
erty for all time and be treasured by the peoples OF
the United States and OF Great Britain long a. the
governments of both nations shall endure. In view Of
the importance OF this great event may not be ass
recapluate the in the royal progress, which
stand bold relief from the smaller facts connected
herewith.
The fret inception Of the Princes visit, IT may be
membered was from the Canadians themselves, who pe
oned the Queen TO send OF the royal family as she
herself wond be able TO attend to inaugurate the
opening OF the Victoria Bridge at Montreal II certainly
contemplated that the heir apparent would be
selected for that purpose-popuar expectation being
satisfied with smaller personagetne Duke OF Cam
bridge or Prince Alfred, for instance. II pleased
the Queen, however, 10 send the young Prince
Of Wales himself 10 visit the Western pos
sessions Of his imperial mother, and N the
samc time TO instruct him TO pay visit 70 the United
States. Never has monarch arrived at so wise deter
minaton for be derived from the vst of
the young Albert Edward In this country OF democracy
hardly fail to impress the future King Edward the
Seventh in such TO lead 10 the full recogni
on Of the rights Of the people, throughout his mitable
dominion, where, according to popular tradition the sun
never,sets.
1t win be remembered that, in accordance with this
arrangement, President Buchanan wrote an autograph
letter to the Queen, inviting the young Prince TO visit
Washington and the United States In general In his pas
sage through the most interesting portions OF this con
nent The letter Of the President and the reply Of the
Queen 10 her sgood friend" published simultane
ously In the Herald Of the 10Th Of July. In this
afairr the Queen did herself honor in honoring the
United States, by announcing that in passing the
frontiers which divide the British Provinces
from. the Slater, his Royal Highness would
drop all royal state and the lowest title to which
he could lay clam-ihe rather uncouth Of Baron
Renfrew derived from small Scottish town, situated in
county OF thesa name, with the addition OF shire
att the end, making up the rather uneuphonous name
OF :" Renfrewshire." Many and rich were the Jokes
OF the London papers on the assumption by the
Prince OF this rather out Of the way title, and Mr.
Punch distinguished himself by suggesting Sir Edward
Chester Duke Of Cornwall, Mr.. Guelph pronounced
wcO,ard whole lot Of other nomenclature. But the
Queen and the Prince and al their advisers deaf TO
al these suggestions and Baron Renfrew 1t was ar
ranged that the Prince Of Wales Duke Of Cornwall and
whole host Of ct ceteras too 70 mention,
tobe distinguished in the United States simply Baron
Renirew. II seems, however, that the America
people would not receive him in this charac-
ter; for what would he be than simply
Mr. Guelph thing "tolerabe and not TO be endured"
And Mr. Guelph not bit better than Mr. Smith, Mr..
Jones' or the other respectable gentlemen whose
occur In the same category.
Well all these arrangements made, and in pursu-
anoe Of them the Prince arrived at st Johns Newfound
