how fascinating he is when the formal
etiquette of Court routine is dispensed
with. His joyous, genial nature has
then full play, and the charm OF his
manner is quite inimitable. In conver-
sation he has perfect grace OF express
sion, exquisite tact, sweet voice, the
most winning smile i'll the world, and
the art OF making every one happy
around him. He has also wide and ex
tended knowledge, and is learned and
fastidious critic upon all subjects con-
nected with art, literature, antiquities,
and the drama. He has seen every
thing and knows everything worth see-
ing and knowing throughout all the
cities of the world; and wherever he
traveled-in Europe, Asia, America,
the best guides were always with him
to describe and instruct. Besides, his
memory is marvellous and his knowl-
edge always at command, showing
bright, rapid intelligence, with great
yivacity Of intellect and feeling. He
has also another social charm he
LISTENS gracefully, as if he felt real IN
terest in the speaker and the subject
and this is the most delicate hattery
that can be offered to any one. Like
all the Royal Family, he is an excellent
liuguist, and converses readily in the
leading languages OF Europe, and is
familiar with the current literature OF
the day, both English and foreign.

feminine ways, and, above ALL she is
devoted to him, and he highly values
her sweet wifely affection. Nothing
can be done at tSandrlngham-no amuse-
ment projected without the aid OF
"Alexa," as he calls her--Lsing the
pretty diminutive of her name. The
Princess is not clever, nor learned, nor
a,tistic, like the Queens daughters;
but she is a gentle, graceful, very
pretty woman, always properly dressed,
always an attractive and beautiful or
nament, either to the home life or the
Court circle. She is fond Of music,
dancing, and simple pleasures, and
takes great interest in the training and
education of her daughters. The Prince
is very particular as to the persons she
speaks to or meets, and does not like
her to have any very intimate friends,
so she lives quite apart from paitry

simple and amiable manners of their
mother, and have much promise OF
beauty, though OF the German type
with very fair compilations and long

evening generally ends with round
dances and Sir Roger de Coverly, IN
which the Prince and Princess and all
the visitors join with considerable fun

sad at parting with her sons, but they
are getting splendid education IN
their sailor life, with all it's varied eX-

eldest is the image Of his mother; he
has her beautiful eyes, with the same

taller than his father. Since the fall

reigned in England; SO if this hand
