Thero is always plenty OF scandal aflons cor-
corning our 17iHcob and tho lntcat yarn Ia that
tho PRINCE Of WaioB is again compromised In an
othor affair OF qalaNterte. His chief favorite,
till sho was sold up" last year, la sa!d to haye

great natno In tho banking worlds na,,o Which

Eusland,-a 10 1t Idly whose nn. husband ID
Is weiI knowu In mattors Of YpanIsh finance enl
banking. Tho Prince OF Wales owes noarly a
million Of mouey. But It must not DO sup
posed that his fayortca aro o1irlotod by his gon-
has frugnl mind. It Is probable that tho pom
ultimate lady cost lin Hon,ethlng handsome.
Tho htory is that he gave her El0, 600 year. slo
ia NOW living ina worry hunab!o way, probably at
ratc OF $500 year. When hor ossabliBh-
itors tt.cYo wns groat rush Of purchasers, and
competition for certain afticoa In tho house
was livoly. TIE Three principal creditors Of
the prineo Me tho Dnko Of Sutherland: Mr.
proprietor Of tho Daily Telegraph. Tho prillco
lad about million Of pounds Hayod up for him
whon ha a.taiued Ills majority. IIo haa eyer
slnco lad m income Of about El20, ,0N year.
His vito lu not oxtravagant. But now he in in
debt to tho t1ao of e850, or II 600, 0oo, and
1t ia great mystery whero tho money haa gone
to. III about twolvo years lie haa managed to
epoud more than gu, ,250,0 900 atorli,,g, OF nenry
Sl7,OO0000 llo in ts unxiona t., got out Of debt

Ho applied to tlia late Government for assiss-
anco, but thoy refunod to do anything. IIo las
removed hfa application to tho present Govorn-
n,ont, and alio mattor il ui,ior consideration.
One OF tho plens llo 1nahcB is that much OF tho
money WAS apont iu discharElag duties TINT bo-
longcd to tho Queon. Thero il something In
this; but sho1,, il it be Bo tho Queen should pay
it, and no! tho people, Tho Queen, am told,
Inns occasionally Gvou considerable atus to tho
Prince: Just before the marriage Of tho DuHo
Of Ednburg, snmo Of the creditors Of that
for their moAey, and threatened 10 innaae Il row
about It It they wcrn not paid. Tho Queen camo
to tho rcscue. and paid Els, 900 out oi Aor own
puEbo to satisfy those olatme.
at tho next BoBsion OF Parliament bill Of
Bolno nud will be introduced for tho roltof OF tho
Irinco Of NYales. Most probably it will co1,sist
Of a vote Of money aud atl nNtt ization for tho
capitalization Of tic revenues Of tho D,1chy Of
Cornwall for d cortain number Of years. These
rovonues amount to about .EG0, 900 year, A
capitalist would do we'll to pay .E5oo, 900 down
and take tho revenues for tou yea1A. BY these
1ncnnB tho money to pay the debts Of tho Prince
might DO rnisctt but 10 would III tho meantime
be deprived Of l,nlf hin income.
There Las boon 4 ridiculous story fionting
about town for fow dnys to tho OBJECT tint now

Denmark with her father she will romnin thoro,

cannot think tAore III any foundation for tho
report.
Although this is tho dead and dull period in
London, tho Empress Of Austria, tho Prince
Charles OF nouniania, and the Princess mud
tho Prince Alrhonso OF Spain arc now horo !;
and Prince milan of Sorva is coming looking
about, 1t IL said. for q wife. He cannot have
our own dear Beatrice, Tor her careful mother

Edinburg did not do as much na was expected
Of thom, and thoy gradually dropped out Of aoci-

over to England host Of Russian doctors md
nurses, together with tho Empross' mamma. 4
