1t is said the Prince of Wales, although on
ly thilty-eight years of age, is turning rapidly
grey. So much for drinking champagne and
leading a fast life. The chances are that he
will be a white-headed man when called to
the throne of the Georges, in which, from all
accounts he should feel very much at home.
When he does become King though, he will
have an advantage over over SOM of his
predecessors in this that he will be pretty
we'll acquainted with the people, or ratherthey
will be that we'll acquainted with him. Some
of the "Wales" of the past, in emerging
from the chrysalis state of Princedom into
the full splendors of royalty, were almost
strangers to the people Of England but the
Wales of the present has enjoyed a happier
fate. The divorce cases in which he has cut
so honorable figure have made his name IA
miliar with his future subjects. 1t is only q
few years since the scandal of the Mordaunt
case set gossipping tongues ~a-wageing, and
now society is to be edited by another episode
of like character. In the suit for divorce
brought by Mr.. Langtry, the husband of the
celebrated beauty, II. R. H. the Prince of
Wales has the distinction of figuring as CO.
respondent.
