However, RdUe7a0,as nos naout0as,
the Prince OF w Wales, whom | have al
iuded to, but not as lost sheep, tho


ne will be lost to the view of that por-


ton of the public who will attend the


opening ceremony of the " World's Fair,


the cause of his absence does not


spring from the Princes desire of see
ING foreign countries; it is rot from


his approaching marriage with Dan


lsh Princess, nor does it arise from his
love passages at Windsor; but the rea-
sons for his absence are now sufficient
ly manifest. The Prince of Wales is
| already married the ingenuous eldest
son of Her Majesty is, at the present


moment, and, indeed, for the last six
months has been, q married man.


! The enthl aller of the Princes heart
and recipient of his troth is beauti-
tul young Hibernian lady whom he met
and fell IN love with during the period


OF his military training at Currah Of
Kildare in Ireland, where His Royal
iilghness had appropriated to him, a
little rmeoVed from the main line Of
tents which formed the encampment, a
neat hut with a pretty little garden at
tached. Though he had everything to
make him comfortable there. during
the idle days and long evenings, he
sometimes cantered off to see some of
the leading gentry of Kildare, whose
demesnes fringe the great plain on
which the Prince was stationed To
one of those houses in particular, and
which was inhabited by family of an
clent and almost historic standing, his
horses head was oftenest turned and
his visits became SO frequent that they
ceased to be formal.


Nothing was suspected by the
Princes mentors, until one afternoon
t.ua- uanno ladies roallonad over the
green sward, pnlllng up in front Of the
Princes hut, and the alacrity with
which he came out to meet them, and
his particular manner to the Younger
one, attracted the attention of the off
Ger in high rank who happened at that
moment to be calling on the Prince,
and who, being veteran in love as
well as i'll war, fancied he saw some
thing more than the mere poIiteuess of
a young Prince to Young lady The
visits were repeated, and they were al
SO seen riding about the country. How.
ever, TO cot long story short, in a GER


tain little church not twenty miles from
Newbridge (the next town from Cur
rah) there were, one morning, united
IN matrlmouy two young people, one
OF whom was the lady in question, and
the other the Heir Apparent to the
throne of Great Britain, the only 9th
er parties present being, besides the
clergyman, brother officer Of the
Prince and the brides brother.


The late lamented Prince Consort
was made aware of ,he fact just before
quitting Ireland, when they visited the
lakes OF Killarney in the autumn. By
the Royal Marriage Act need scarce
y say, such a union would be unIaw-
fni, but 50 wrapped up in this beauti
tnl Irish bride is the Prince that this
journey of his to the East, which was
determined upon before the Prince
Consort's death, was suggested by
the latter as means of weaving him
from ':his foolish attachment" upon
the principle Of ''out of sight cut of
mind. But nothing will do; the young
Princes che art, untrammeled, fondly
turns" toward a certain old mansion
on the confines Of the Currah, and |
which holds what is dearer to him than
his future crown'-the fair object of
his thoughts almost daily receives q
letter from under her youthful and roy
al lovers hand.-Detroit Adcert5ser,
