The unfortunate Prince Henry of Batten-

English ex.member of parliament with
whom pleasant chat was had yesterday.
AS the husband of Princess Beatrice he
was in receipt of large annual income
voted to whom on his marriage by sub
servient legislative body. In addition to
this he received a large salary as the gov
ernor of Isle of Wight. His Unpopular
was due very much to his personal habits,
which, to speak mildly, @ere very coarse,
and to his slight knowledge of English and
a boorish, brusque manner. which from the
first ostracized him from the chief clubs.
1t is mystery to those who know some
what of the inner life of the court. that the
queen gave her consent to the marriage or
that the princess could ever have been
really enamored of him. He was almost
repulsive in appearance and would have
been able to personate Dirk Hatterack, the
villain in Waverly, to tho very life. Is it
not singular that both of the princess low
ers should have met death in Africa?-the
