London gossips are again talking about
Albert Edward and the American beauty
whom the Princess of Wales recently
snubbed in public. They say the Prince,
relieved for the nonce from doing duty
a. his sisters silver wedding, flew to
Cannes, officially to make inquiries after
the state Of the Prcmicr's health, to
hastily shake hands with him at the
Chateau Scott, and then to unoflicially
lay his royal homage at the feet of the
American belle, and bask in her smiles.
What the French call the secret de la
comodie resembles the apparent mystery
and transparent incognito of the Princes
visits to that attractive shrine. The god
dess herself derives, il appears, as much,
If not more, qualification from the pub
licity and eclat of that devotion than
she does from the admiration itself; and
what she most prizes in the worshipper
is the magic formula of the three letters,
ii. II. H., which proclaim all over Eu-
rope what conquest she has made. Let
her rejoice while she can. Turning back
on the now serried ranks of those who
have enjoyed the same intoxicating but
transient triumph before her, the new
beauty can calculate TO nicely how lorg
her reign will last, and how soon she
must step back and resign her glittering
and unstable sovereignty into an uslirp-
er's hands.
