good his claim 10 repute in the mutiny.
And there stands around many q soldier,
and many a civilian, who have deserved
7fell OF their country, each in his own
degree, and according to his respective
opportunities
About IlJ there arrived from the
Serapis Lords AylesfOTd, Carington, and
Alfred Paget, with Colonel Ellis and DR..
Fayrer At 4:20 the NiccrOy passed
down the CHAT, and with constrained
greetings 90 the native chiefs, went on
down the jetty to the pOntOOn. Thither,
too, there presently proceeded, in batch
es, the gentlemen, English and native,
who constituted the deputatiOn that
were to present the address to the prince
when he should land on the pOntOOn.
Conspicuous among these was Mr.. Stuart
HogC, to whom it was ObviOns. by his
nervousness, that there had been conf
ded the duty Of reading the address. Mr..
Turnbull, the secretary to the justices,
passed down, bearing on a cushion Ofred,
the richly Ornamented casket, containing
the address looking, +" remarked lacy,
" very like a bride cake" Last of all
there passed down Sir Richard Temple.
BY this time theTOyl standard no long
eT flies from the main truck Of the Sera-
pis The boats of that ship and the war
vessels have formed an avenue between
the Scraps and the p0ntOOn; and now,
as the cannon Of royal salute roar,
the royal barge speeds toward the shore.
The prince from a distance is seen to
get from the boat onto the pOHtOOn. and
then there IS an interval, during which
the address presumably is being read.
This over, a procession marshaIs itselfOn
the ietty, with General Probyn and Lord
Charles BeTesfOrd leading. Then follow
the prince, in the full uniform of q field
marshal, and the VicerOy, walking side
by side; then follow the suite, stats, ci-
villains, soldiers, and raiahs intermingled
in brilliant chaos. At the CHAT the
prince stops and the vicerov introduces
HIM to native chief after native chief.
These Hre taken at hap-hazard as they
stand, for the vexed question of prece-
denCe has been adIoitly CirCumvented by
the abolition of all order of arrangement
for the nonce. Ladies stand upon chairs
and look over shoulders at the little
group In the ring inside. There had been
vOciterOus cheering as the prince ad-
vanced up the jetty, and 1t is with diff
Guilty now restrained while the introduce
tiOns and conversations are in progress.
The prince spends a good half hour
working his way through the rajahs,
shaking hands, paying and receiving
compliments, bowling his frank response
to salaams. Then he moves on under
the arch, and the cheering ringsOut loud
er and louder with a Crescendo of peals.
There Is a procession of officials in their
carriages in their drive across the Madam
to house, but the OrderOf its
going would possess no interest for you
While as yet the seething thrOng at the
CHAT is struggling out in the direction of
the carriages, there is heard the salute
which proclaims the princes arrival at
observation-disclosures. No native princes,
as at Bombay, joined in the procession,
and their efforts to reach their carriages
in the confusion at the CHAT were almost
tragic IN their intensity.
