Princess Louise of Wales passing through the yachts

she met with most enthusiastic reception. All the
yards we're Manned but the heartiest and most hsty
cheering came from the yards Of the German manot
No mention Is found among the presents given 10
Princess Louise OF gift from the Queen, and this has
been much commented The inevitable Indian
shawl, In this case arranged cloak, has been
bestowed, but hear OF nothing else believe that
the Queen has given her present in more useful
and homely manner. She contributed largely to
the expense of the Princesss trousseau. which cost
nearly 1000 pounds
The crowds in the streets not very enthusiasts
on Saturday as the Royal procession drove from tho
Palace 10 Marlborough House after the ceremony.
In Piccadily the crowd not large, and when thu
carriages forming the cortege came In sight one
seemed to realize that the smart green chariot with
magnificent horses and lveries contained the brds
and bridegroom. Every seemed to think that
they would occupy the state coach instead OF m
turning as the Duke of Fife and his bride did in
their own carriage. But when the fec,
dawned the crowd that he was taking
her home as his wife in his own coach enthusiasm
burst out with great vgor. Nothing could be smarter
than the carriage and the whole turnout The Princess
who bowed her Acknowledgements to the crowd looked
very happy and proud. The Duke OF Fife sat well
back so as to be little seen, the Princess alone
had to acknowledge the welcome. The Princess OF
Wales looked very tired she drove swiftly after
her daughter, her coronet OF diamonds catching the
rays Of the sun that shone out very brightly as the
procession turned down 81. James-st from Pcca,

The Duke of Flies principal for holding out
against Her Majesty's wish that he should take the
title of Duke of Inverness, was understand. that
among the subsidiary titles Of the Marquis of Huney
is that OF Viscount Inverness. The noble family OF
Fife has always borne in the north well-deserved
good liberal. kindly landlords, regarding the
wellbeng of their tenantry as duty and pleasure,
and the present proprietor has fully maintained the
reputation Of the house In this respect While ground

visits to buckingham Palace Chapel before the core

THE QUEEN WILL NOT GO TO SEA.
The story that the Queen medltacd sea voyaga
is merely Of those rumOrs which from time to
time find cTedence in society. The Queen has no in
tention of going anywhere out Of the Kingdom. AZ
ter a visit 10 Wales, she will go 10 Balmoral where
the Empress Frederick will join her later. She is
very much better for the change to the Isle of Wight
and has got rid of her rheumatism and sciatca. She
will stay at Balmoral all the time she is in Scotland.
Should her rheumatic affection return 1t is not I'M
probable that she may try the baths at Strathpefer,
not go afoat Saturday, and according TO present
arrangements Her Majesty viii view the feet from
the pier at Osborne.

LORD RANDOLPH MAKES AMENDS
Lord Randolph Churchhilps speech on Friday night
is interesting from two points of view. 1t produced
for moment the effect of complete reconciliation
between him and the front Treasury bench, and IL must
have gone far toward softenng the irritation the
Queen has always felt toward him since he resigned
and wrote his unlucky letter Of resignation on Wind
Castle writng-paper The Prince of Wales, with
discretion, never recognizes political disputes, and has
remained friends with Lord Randolph in all his mis-
deeds, but the Queen and the rest of the Royal
family feel very strongly the question Of his resigna-
ton. still Lord Randolph has many circumstances 10
help him, and he avGled himself of them ard achieved
great success. lie was grateful to the Prince for
his constant friendship. is fond of the Duke Of Fife,

THE GLADSTONE OF TWENTY YEARS AGO.
Tho first night OF tho debate the Royal grants
was remarkable for the sudden reappearance Of an
ilustrious and historic figure, long absent from tie
House Of Commons; the Gladstone Of a former day
presented himself; the Gladstone he twenty
years ago 1t would have been satisfactory TO have
had the Gladstone of four years back and this
recurrence to yet nober period of his career was
still more welcome. If Pitt or Fox had re-entered the
House. the surprise could hardly have been greater.
