FOREIGN NOTES
 AND COMMENT

In spite of the prince of Wales Teu- ton descent and accent, and notwiih-
 standing his taste for continenta! life,
 there is no one in England wno pos
 sesses a keener and mere delicate
 sense of British popular taste than
 himself It is, indeed, this Knowledge
 and the exquisite tact which guides him in the utilization thereof that con-
 stitutes the main source of his popu
 larity both at home and abroad, as well
 as Of his scbriquet Of @'the First Gen tleman of Europe" No one recognizes
 this more thoroughly than the queen, who especially of late years, has come to rely in nc small degree upon the ad
 vice of her eldest son in such matters.
 Last week the prince, at the request Of his mother, drove down from Mar1- borough house to KensingtCn palace and made a quiet inspection Of the apartments and of the show cases con tained therein that were thrown open to the public on Monday last. Hitherto closed to the public, Kensington pail ace, that home of King William III, of good Queen Anne, and of the Georges, besides being the birthplace and girlhOod residence of Queen Vie toria herself, has now been thrown open as a species of museum, the apartments inhabited by the queen as a child having been arranged with show cases containing mementOS of her youth. The prince of Wales was of the opinion that several of these me- mentos, while of value to her majestys own family circle, were Of too domes- tic Q character to be exhibited to pub lie gaze and calculated to excite ridi- cue Cn the part of those net imbued with the necessary amount of vene- ration and loyal affection for the aged queen. Accordingly, after carefully in specting all the show cases, he hal quite a number of objects Of this char acter removed, and they have sinte been sent to Windsor.
 The prince was accompanied by Gen eral Sir Arthur Ellis, now sergeant-at- arms of the house of lords, who. al- though he has ceased to be the princes equerry, continues to act as the art ad- visor Of his future king. Like Count Secke1dorff, the faithful and devoted grand master of Empress Frederick of Germany, he possesses an extraordi- nary knowledge and wide experience
