Why the Prince Wants to Sell.

LONDON. April 0.-Although the rumor
that the Prince of Wales has sold his rae
ing cutter Britannia is unfounded, 1t is
nevertheless believed to be fact that the
prince is willing to sell the yacht. A rumor
in yachting circles connects his desire to do

Jubilee Cup, offered for competition by the
Emperor of Germany, which the prince
would be almost compelled to do If he pos
sessed q yacht when the emperor's cup IS

DR.. K~ingsbury's recital OF his editorial
labors. covering upwards Of forty years,
copied elsewhere, is Of interest not only
to his brethren OF the press, but to North

the ripe age Of three score and ten, but
his intellectual force Is ~unabated. and he
writes columns OF bright and fresh mat
ter for The Messenger six days in the
week. No editor in the state writes as
much, SO far as We can judge from our
exchanges. 1t is unfortunate that the
greater part of his literary work has been
done for the daily press, to be skimmed
