A Patriotic Britisher sends Wales Ten
Thousand Pounds sterling.
LONDON, Aug. l9.--If the queen and her
royal oifsprings have been very much put out
over the shameful way in which the Radicals
opposed their modest request for more money,
the Prince Of Wales at least has something
with which 20 soothe his lacerated feelings,
as a direct outcome Of the agitation instituted
by the Radical members Of parliament and
their supporters. The prince has received an
anonymous latter in which the writer de
plores the inconsiderate conduct OF the dis
loyal Radicals, sympathizus with his royal
highuess in the unpleasant position in which
their agitation placed him, and last, but by
no means least, he gives a proof Of the sin
cerity of his sympathy by inolosing ten crisp
new Bank Of Eng land notes, each Of the de-
nomination Of a thousand pounds.
No name is Signed 70 the communication,
and the writer has been a. such pains 10 avoid
leaving any clew 70 his identity that no one
is prepared even 10 guess wlo be can be- The
Prince Of Wales himself has no suspicion o.
any one, bur IN any event, it is not likely
that the police will be asked 70 interfere Il

Carnot scores the Bculanrists.

PARIS, Aug. l9.-The banquet given by the
Paris municipality to the 13,0 900 mayors and
commercial delegates OF France was most
brilliant affair. President Carnot was pres
ent and in reply to the toast in his honor
said that such demonstrations as this one
were valuable in many ways, but probably
they served no more useful purpose than to
prove the national soldity. At time when
the enemies Of the republic were attempting
to convince the world that there was no such
thing as unity among the French, this proof
was doubly welcome. The French, though
crushed for a time had shown their wonder
full power of recuperation before this, but it
was shown again when the nation had made
its sovereign voice once more heard and had
laid the heavy hand Of outraged law upon
the plotters who were aiming the overthrow
Of the republic. The French people, be said,
would soon complete the good work and cast
into deserved oblivion all the enemies of
the republic.
