tersburg sent Professor Uspensky, Of
the Russion Archaeological institute,
who resides at Constantinople, to Pal
myra, with other experts, to report on
the inscription and to ascertain
whether it was possible to cut it out
from the huge block. The professor
having reported on the feasibility Of
the undertaking, the Russian govern
ment obtained the sultan's sanction to
remove it to Russia. Accordingly an
expedition vas sent to the spot last
summer, composed of workmen under
the superintendent of a Russian con-
sular official, and after cutting the
block of stone into three parts sepa-
rated the inscription from each, and it
is now on its way to the Russian capt.

copious spring, it must always have
been a hating place for caravans pass

Nautical Heir Apparsnt.

British service papers have notet
that the Prince Of Wales is the first
heir apparent to the British crown to
hold an actual commission in the
navy, the senior service on their side
of the water. Hitherto the heir appar-
ent has been put into the army, and
any naval rank he may have held has
been purely honorary. The same rule
was followed in the case of the o Of
the present king; Prince Edward was
made a soldier, and died while major
in a hussar regiment; Prince George
was made a sailor, and has command
ed his own ship on a regular cruise.
Now, by the death of his elder brother.
he becomes Prince of Wales, the first
of the line to be a sailor. Hitherto he
has been promoted rapidly, but with a
decent period of service in each rank,
until he now holds the commission Of
a captain. Hereafter his promotion
will be honorary, as it will no longer
be advisable for the heir to the crown
to go to sea in command of a fleet or
to take the risks of a naval officer

stamps. 1t is true that both the new
Italian postage stamps and coin have
assumed some heraldic notifications,
but they are very insignificant and
were introduced during the reign of
King Humbert.
The Italian national emblem consists
of a shield with a silver cross, sur
mounted by a crown and a pentagon
star, dating from the seal of Peter II.
count of Savoy. The royal coat of
arms shows this same shield, with the
royal helmet and the historic golden
cross held by two lions and surround
ed by the great chain of the Annun-
ciata order and other high orders of
the monarchy.
But the house of Savoy has from
time immemorial possessed the en-
blem of the two-headed eagle, so that
