NEW YORK, June S.-Y ates' letter to
the Tribune from London says: The Ger
man Emperor and Empress are to be at
tended to England by a suite of sixty
persons, for whom it will not be easy to
find adequate accommodations at the
palace without making special arrange
ments which will give a great deal of
trouble and cause immense inconveni-
ence. The announcement that the Ger
man Emperor is to visit the manufactur-
ing districts and some great towns north
during his stay in England is incor-
rect. Windsor, London, Portsmouth,
and fortnight's cruise in his
yacht at Cowes are the arrangements
IN his programme, to which there will be
no addition. The Emperor will pay
private visit to the Duke of Edinburgh at
Devonport, during his cruise down the
channel.
The Emperor intends to be at Cowes
during the first week in August, when
the Royal Yacht Squadron regattas take
place, and will sail the celebrated
Thistle, which he has purchased from
Bell, and has rechristened the Meteor,
for the Queens Cup. 1t is understood at
Cowes that she is to be entered for all the
n1dlC0GS
which she is qualified.
The German Empress is to accompany
the Emperor on the visit to Amsterdam
The feeling which prevails i'll Holland
about the Imperial visit is wholly un-
mixed with delight. Emperor William
offered himself and the Empress to the
Queen Regent as guests, and of course
the very cool proposal could not well be
declined, but the visit is universally re-
garded as exceedingly ill-timed, coming
so soon after the death of the King, and
peculiarly unwelcomed and inconveni-
ent on other accounts. both public and
private.
The American Minister and Mrs. Lin
coin gave their first dinner party in Lon
don last week. Among the guests were
Rustem Pacha, M. and Nine. Debille,
Mrs. Marshall Roberts, Mr. and Mrs. j o.

Burdett-Coutts and Lady Knutsford

We believe that the organizers and
agents of the conservative party all over
the country have been instructed to make
careful report on the State affairs in the
different constituencies in the course of
autumn. No early dissolution is in
tended, but the heads of the party are de-
slrous to know from those best informed
the exact position ofaffairs. Their agents
have been instructed to give their opin-
IONS LII the frankest manner, so that the
Grue position of affairs may be known.
There seems to be no doubt that in many
counties agricultural laborers have been
largely captured by the Liberals with
magnificent and glowing promises.
