voked.
The Prince and Princess Of Wales and their
eldest son, Prince Albert Victor, arrived in
Dublin, Ireland, on the Sth. A dispatch says:
They arrived at Dublin at 3 o'clock and were
accorded a splendid welcome. In answer to
the address of welcome presented to him by
the citizens committee, the prince said he
was delighted to renew his acquaintance
with Dublin. In the passage through the
streets of the city the party was everywhere
greeted with enthusiasm. The houses on
both sides Of the avenues along which they
proceeded were adorned with beautiful
decorations and crowded with spectators,
eager to catch q glimpse Of the future king and
queen. Along the route OF the royal process
sion on its way to Dublin castle many persons
were crowded in past the escort OF the
lancers. The prince Of Wales took all these
Irregularities good. naturedly and treasured
the displaced spectators by shaking hands
cordially with all of them within his reach.
Earl Spencer, the Irish viceroy, was loudly
cheered as he drove through the streets Of
Dublin in the procession. Lord Mayor John
O'COnnOr, who is a strong Nationalist, but who
drove in official state with the royal escort,
was loudly Missed by the Nationalists, Not a
sign Of welcome is visible on the city hall Of
Dublin, and this fact stands out so COnspiCu-
ously as to force comments. Fully a thousand
students paraded the streets and marched TO
Dublin castle, singing loyal songs and carrying
union Jacks on the end of walking sticks. The
royal visitors are loudly Cheered wherever
they appear.
Before the procession started, an address of

interest to many people in the Irish capital.
