NEW YORK. July 20.-Edmund Yates
special cablegram to the Tribune from Lon
don says: Emperor William greatly ad-
mired the display of gold plato at the State
banquet and at the State ball, but hear
that he expressed the opinion that he saw
nothing in this line either at Windsor Castle
or at Buckingham Palace which was
finer than the silver dinner service
which, by special order Of the Queen
Regent Of the Netherlands, was used at the
Imperial table during the stay of the En-
peror and L-spress at Amsterdam. This
service, which would fetch at least $3.50. 600
If placed in the market, was manufactured
In London for William and Mary. and after
the Kings death was removed to Holland
All the pieces bore the royal arms of En-
gland until about forty years ago, when
they were erased by order of King William
IL and the Dutch arms substituted.
The Emperor had intended to stay In
London until Tuesday. but the pace during
his visits to Holland and England has been
too rapid, and his Majesty was so dead beat
that be was glad to get away to the solitude
and repOse Of his yacht on Monday night.
The favOrite pastime of the Queen of the
Belgians and her daughter. who are both
staying ut 0Stend, Is Shell-huntng on the
sands One day last week they extended
their search as far as Newport, and in order
10 reach home before dark they were COM
PEELED to stop train and take refuge in the
first compartment, which was occupied by a
buXom German lady and her husband. The
ire of the former being excited by the presence
of small dog carried by Princess Clemen-
tine, she roundY abused them in German
expressed her doubts as 10 whether they
really had taken irst-class tickets, induleed
In uncomplimentary remarks on their
shabby attire, and finally bounced out of
the carriage with the avowed intention Of
taking cab to the hotel so as to avoid con-
taninatiOn from such vulgar company.
The Queen, who delights in travelling incog-
nlto, was greatly amused at the adventure.
The Seryians are delighted here that ex-
KING Milan has betaken himself 10 CarlS-
bad, where they hope lie will long remain,
for there is no gambling there. It had be-
come clear that he could not live on his
pension of $4,000 a year if he lost thou
sands every week at baccarat, as lie has
been doing during his stay in Paris; and of
course, whenever he is again impecunious,
be Will be clamOring for further assistance
from his sons subjects.
1uo INlluIul anu useIQl CampDell Is no
longer Secretary tU Parneil. He could not
tolerate the eccentrictieS of the leader, and
as Parnell hates letter writing the duties of
Secretary ara now performed by Mrs. Par
nell. O'Brien's Parliamentary career is
likely to be brought to an early if
temporary termination. Lord Salisbury's
solicitors very properly insist that he shall
pay expenses on the litigation on which he
chose TO enter with the Prime Minister.
O'Brien declares, l believe. that lie has not
means to do so, and proceedings in bank
Tuptcy will therefore be instituted. The eff
feet OF this will be to prevent O'Brien sit
ting aud voting, and if he does not obtain
his discharge within six months his seat
will be vacated. the patriot probably is
not sorry at the prospect of the brief session
of his Parliamentary career.
Baron Hirsch's plenipntentiary, Arnold
White, held sort of international confer
ence at Lemberg few days ago, which was
attended by such n0tables as Herr Franzos
of Berlin and DR.. Kuranda Of Vienna. 1t
appears that the practical outcome Of their
deliberations is the selection of tne Argen-
tine Republic instead Of Palestine as a site
for that bospitabe Hrschland, which is to
welcome the expelled Russian Jews in
large numbers. White is now celebrating a
scheme for carrying out the transfer
