PRINCE GEORGE sNUBsED.
His Proposed visit 60 Newfoundland Post
poned on Account OF the Bitter Feeling
There Against the British Government.


HALIFAX. July 24.-Newioundland papers
which arrived here to. night show that tho peo-
pie OF st. Johns have administered snub to
the second son OF the Prince OF Wales, Adj
miral Watson and the officers OF the North
American SQUADRON, ind Gen. Sir John Ross.
Commander OF the British forces in North
America. In the midst OF the agitation against
the modus vivendi with France 1t was an
nounced that Prince George would honor Eng
lands oldest colony with visit.
Gov. OBrlen imme dtately embraced the on
portuuity to work up IL scheme for extending o
royal welcome to the Prince. The Govern mont
was induced to contribute 81, 200 toward q ball.
but the feeling among the people was 80 BIT
ter against the British Cover nment for Its
abandonment OF the rights OF the colony that
the announcement was made that Prince
George would not visit st. Johns now Tho St
Johns Hcrd!d. organ OF ex-Premier Sir Robot
Thorburn, SAYS:
Gen. O'Brlen replaced the Prince by Admit
raj Watson and the officers OF the feet. and
whom 1t appeared doubtful whether the bait
was alluring enough he throw In Gen. Ross,
who accompanies the Admiral bere. But isn't
the gilt placed on u little too thickly? Isn't
apparent from the very fact that first prince
was projected, and now live Admiral and
live General are coming. the whole thing is for
a special purpose. and that an anti French
shore demonstration is really the great object
in yiew2 Tho French feet ia to be here
at the same time as the British
feet. and the French officers must also
be invited to the ball II such thing occurs
this colony will be the laughing stock Of the
world. The French shore agitation will be
killed. md tho efforts OF those patriotic men
who have done 80 much to stir IL up will all
have been In vain. What pretty figure the
promoters and attendants Of the ball will cut
in the eyes OF the people Of the colony and Of
the world at large after they have wined
dined. and danced the French officers upon
