NOTES UPON WELSH AND BORDER- LAND PEDIGREES. [BT A WILSH ANTNJUART.J I "Notwithstanding my good friend. Mr Alderman, Jno. Jo&eB'B assurance to the contrary, I think the differenc* is great— Between the man who own. a vast estate, And him who cirries. on his manly front, An eye that would not quail in battle a brunt. But there are none of us, who has ever dwelt upon the history of Wynnstay. and of its owners, who will not admit, that, its family rent roU haa al- ways been expended In a generous spirit-gencra. tion after generation for years untold-for the comfort and pleasure of the Welsh. Among the many men of a former generation, who enjoyed the splendid hospitality of the owners of Wynnatay. the name of HESRY WILLIAM RUN BURY. a distinguished caracaturist, will commend itself to attention. He was a genial, intelligent, and com- panionable man, who could use his facile pencil to instruct and t3 amuse mankind and in his oft re- peated visits to the Sir Watkin of his day, he left behind him many abiding proofs of his powers as an artist, and of hia goodness as a friend. Capt. Bunbury was the second son of the Rev. Sir William Bun- bury, Bart., the owner of Stanney, in Cheshire, and the representative of a gentle ancient and dia- tinguished family. He was the great grandson, also, of Sir Thomas Hanmer, M.P., of Bettisfield, and great great grandson to old Sir Kenrick Eyton, one of our Welsh judges, under the ancient juris- dicial regime, which dealt with Wales as if she had been a nation. But the gallant gentleman also claimed to have descended from the Norman eoldier of fortune St. Pierre, who, for his good ser- vices, had granted to him by Hugh Lupus, the manor of Bunbury, in Cheehire. ALEXANDER DE BUSBCRY, who lived in the time of Henry the third, was too wise a man to pretend that he had derived from Lupus. for heknew that there was no record in exist- ence that would show a sidgle line of descent from that renowned and lucky adventurer. Six hundred years later, however, it became safe enough to claim a descent from Hugh the Wolf, for there re- mained no one in England or in Walea to question it. But these Bunbury's never traded upon men's credulity in that way, and they have been content to rest their title to local distinction upon the safe ground that their progenitor Alexander de Bunbury had acquired land in Cheshire, which they atiil hold, as in iineal descent from him. DAVID DE BUNBURY, who was living in the reign of Edward the Second, added to his Cheshire inheritance by marrying Anne, the daughter of David de Stanney, and with her he obtained the lordship of Stanney, near Chester. Their descendants are said to have held it in lineal descent from that time t3 the present, which in probably true, for I happen to know that, there are manuscripts in existence which seem to sanction that claim. Burke has been content to say that the later generations of Bunbury's lineally sprang" out of the union I have just mentioned, and that Sir Thomas Bunbury, Bait., of Stanney and of Bunbury, had derived from the Norman St. Pierre, who WM a servitor under Hugh Lupus. The Rev. Sir William Bunbury was the fifth baronet of his family, and he was, as I have stated, the father of Henry William. The second son of the last named, eventually succeeded his uncle (Sir Charles John) as seventh baronet, and it appears to me that both traditionally and historically, theseBun- burys' do from first to last represent in themselves a long and continuous chapter in Cestrian records, which might be studied with advantage by all anti- quarians. But even in this comparatively faultless pedi- gree, asides" have been dragged in by some writers, which will not bear investigation for an effort has been made by one genealogist to mix them up with the Touchets, and especially with Lord James Audley, whose honored name and great gallantry have for long been the theme of story and of song. John Delves, a Cheshire youth, was one of the four esquires who attended upon Lord Audley at the battle of Poitiers, but it is alto- gether a mistake to mix Lord James up with the Touchets of Cheshire, and through them with the Bunburys at least it appears so to me, for a reason which I am about to state. ROBERT TOCCHETT, of Tattenhall, in Cheshire, did live in the early days of Edward the Third, and he had a son, Thomas Touchett, who died in the 23rd year of that king's reign. He was father to the veiy gallant SIR JOHN TOCCHETT, who was killed before Rochelle, in the 44th year of Edward the Third, and it is clear, therefore, that this last named could not represent in any way the great James. Lord Audley, who had covered himself with glory at the battle already mentioned. But loan, the daughter of Lord Audley, of Halegh, married John, the son of Sir John Touchett, and when her brother Nicholas died in 1392, she became his heir. and her son, John Touchett, was summoned to Parliament in 1405, in Henry the Fourth's reign as Lord Audley. I am certain that no Bunbury had married into the line of Robert Tonchett, of Tattenhall, during the period I have dwelt upon but I must not presume to say there had been no alliances be- tween the families in James, Lord Audley's lines, though I must doubt it until some writer can give reliable evidence to the contrary. I have been induced to adopt the line of criticisms which have distinguished these notes on a system of pedigree manufacture to try and induce our local genealogists to adopt historical records as a foundation for their studies in prefer- ence to mere tradition and to deprecate as far as it can be done the theory of assumptions upon which so many of our modern pedigrees are based. I admit that in several instances there may be some foundation for apparently unwritten state- ments, and that it is possible with care to unravel much that at first sight may appear mysterious. I will give two instances of this nature, which came under my own observation in connection with Wales and its Borders. Lord Chancellor Camden had been described in a pedigree sent to me as of Welsh descent. The truth is that his father-Chief Justice PJ&tt—had by a second wife a son, John Platt. of the Wilder- ness, in Kent, who married Elizabeth, daughter of Sir Geoffrey Jeffreys, of the Priory, Brecnock, by whom he had a son, John, who, dying in 1797, left his estates to the Marquis Camden, son oj the Lord Chancellor, only because the Chancellor had himself married Elizabeth, daughter and heiress of Nicholas Jeffreys, of the Priory, Breonock; his son thus became a sort of half Welshman through his mother, and was eventually created Earl of Brecnock, and Marquis Camden. The Chancellor himself had not a drop of Welsh blood in his vein?, but through the carelessness of the herald he has been confounded with this son. The other instance alluded to is equally laugh- able, but of a different kind, Susannah, daughter of William Hanmer, of Bettisfield, married Reginald Pinder." I searched high and low for some proof of the fact, until by accident I met with another entry, in which it was said, Elizabeth, daughter of Reginald Lygon, by Susannah Hanmer, his wife, married the Hon. John Yorke, third son of Lord Chancellor Hard. wicke." The Reginald in question had assumed the name of Lygon, and thua the vexed problem was solved at once But my good luck in that case stood me in good stead, for I found how the Yorkes had originally come to Erddig, and local fact was thus added to my store of knowledge. It appears that Simon Yorke, of Dover, in Kent, an additional, who died in 1682, bad, among other children, two eons, Philip and Simon. PHILIP I married Elizabeth Gibbon, of the ancient family of her name, long resident in Kent, and a branch of which had settled at Shrewsbury, about the close (,f the fifteenth century. Lord Chancellor Hardwicke was their son. SIMOJT YORKE I married Aune, sister and heiress of John Meller, of Erddig, and thus our county became enriched with a race who have since done honor to it, and service to the public. All your readers will concur with me in saying that Philip Yorke, of Erddig, con- ferred service to our nation by the publication of his Tracts of Powi's and The RQyal Tribes of Wales and that the gallant soldier, John Yorke, who died but the other day, has left behind him a name of imperishable fame. I close these imper- fect notes at that point, and in doing so have to thank you for their insertion in your columns.

A fatal accident occurred on Monday on the Ince section of the Manchester Ship Canal Railway. ¡ Through some mistake in working the points a train consisting of empties ran into a train contain- ing several hundred workmen. Two of these men were killed, and several injured, two being in a precarious condition. A homing pigeon belonging to Mr W.

On Tuesday, at Portsmouth, as Sanger's circus procession was about to start, a large and powerful lioness, which was ascendrag an inclined plane to take her place on the top of a lofty car beside a lady representing Britannia," slipped or leapt to the ground among a dense crowd of spectators. The animal at once made off in the direction of the park, causin g a great panic. One of the clowns seized the animal in Edinburgh Road, and, some of the attendants arriving, it was taken back to the inclined plane, which it at once ascended, taking its assigned position on the ear. )

I HOUSE OF LORDS.—FEEDAY. me Royal Admat was given by Royal CommM. eioa to uty-two public and private bills. Lord Sandhurst aaked for information in reference to various matters connected with the recent insubor. dination in the Second Battalion of Grenadier Guards. The Duke of Cambridge deprecated discussion, as it would be impossible to maintain discipline in the Army if these subjects were to be discussed. I I HOUSE OF COMMONS.—FRIDAY. ihe Chancellor of the Exchequer, replying to Sit W.Harcourt, regretted that the state of business had not allowed him to bring in a Bill he had prepared for establishing a coinage fund and pro- Tiding for a further calling in of light gold; bat he confidently hoped it might be possible to pass such a Bill before the end of the financial year. Mr. Stanhope, in answer to a question by Mr. Cony beare, declined to produce the defaulter sheets of the men of the Second Battalion of the Grenadier Guards who had been sentenced to pro- longed terms of imprisonment with hard labour. He also stated, in reply to Sir G. Campbell, that Col. Maitland, of the Grenadier Guards, after writing to the Lewspapers that he had not resigned, had re- considered the matter, and tendered his unreserved resignation, which had been accepted, and he I had accordingly been placed on half-pay. He I also informed Sir G. Trevelyan that it waa not the intention of the Government thit the ttuarda should hencef rward take their turn of foreign service with the rest of the Army. The adjourned debate on the Anglo-German: Agreement Bill was resumed by Mr. P. Stevenson, and carried on by Admiral Mayne, Mr. Atherley Jones, Mr. 0. Morgan, Sir R. 18mp18, 1ú. Labou- chere, and Mr. Storey, Sir W. Harcovt ioieated his argument of the previous oveuiug in defence of < the Royul Prerogative. Sir H. James thought the Government, in the present instance, had token a wise view in abandoning the actual Pierogative and majsing a substantial addition to the power of Parlia- j ment. On a division, Mr. Philipp's Amendment, moved on the previous day, for the rejection of the Bill was defeated by 209 to 61, and the Bill was read a second time.

I HOUSE OF LORDS.—MONDAY. j Lord Stratheden and Campbell called attention to tbe results which have followed the connection of the duties belonging to the Prime Minister with those belonging to the Secretary of State for Foreign j Affairs, and moved for precedents on the subject. The Prime Miniater said the noble lord thought he I¡ (Lord ?5uWLury) waa guilty of many things, in* ) eluding the mutiny in the Guards, and would not have committed the lluuders if he had not been Prime Minister. But he should Lave done just as badly if the two offices of Prime Minister and Foreign Secretary had not been united in his per- j son. He agreed with Mr. Gladstone that it was impossible for one man to discharge j the duties of both offices, unless he pos, tessed superhuman skill and energy, if the Prime' Minister led the House of Commous. The matter, however, was very different when ths Prime Minister was in the Hous3 of Lords. In, that case, if it was convenient for him to do so, he might well act as Foreign Miuister. He pointed out that the post of Prime Minister was always united, to some other cffice, and whether it could most con- renieutly be united to the First Lord of the Treasury' or some other office defended upon whether the Prime Minister was in the House of Lords. Hia experience had shown that tuere was no disadvan- tage in the Prime Minister holding the office of Foreign Minister, and any shortcomings which had been attributed to him were personal to himself, and did not arise from the connection of the two offices. Earl Granville disagreed with the view of Lord Salisbury as to there being no disadvantage in the combination of the two offices, and the subject them dropped. The other business was disposed of, and the House adjourned at twenty-five minutes pa>& four o'clock. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—MOSDAY. Mr. Jackson iufoimed Mr. Peace that the GOT- ernment did not propose to give effect to the recom- mendation of the Royal Commission on Horse breeding, advising the raising of the amount avail- able for the Queen's premiums from 9.5,000 to £ 10,000. Mr. Gladstone announced his intention of withdrawiug his motion relating to the rules of debate, whereupon Mr. E. Kobeitaon gave notice hat he would move that in the opinion of the House, the rules of debate ought not to discriminate, except so far as matters connected with proceedings in the House of Lords are concerned, between peera iud other persons not being members. Mr. Balfour re4a a further letter from Mr. Justice Harrison in explanation of the language employed by the latter in the charge recently delivered by him at' Galway Assizes. The Judge, while expressing re- gret that the words used by him should have been misconstrued, emphatically repudiated the idea, that he had directly or indirectly advocated the of illegal methods for the redress of private wrongs, however intolerable those wrongs might be. Mr. Dillon, however, maintained his contention that the words of the judge were iucitements to illegal :acts, and asked the Government to appoint a day for the discussion of his motion on the subject. Therequest was endorsed by Mr. Gladstone, but Mr. Smith de- j clined to accede to it. The Anglo-German Agreement Bill passed through Committee, and raa 1 read a third time, but not without considerable op- position. A proposed amendment by Mr. MacNeiil, for providing that the cesiion of Heligoland should; be subject to the consent of the male inhabitants of the island, was rejected by 116 votes; and one moved by Mr. Atkinson, to the effect that service in the naval forco of Germany should never be- come obligatory on natives of Heligoland or their children, was after some debate withdrawn. The House then went into Committee on tho Local Taxation Bill. HOUSE OF LORDS.—TUESDAY. The House of Lords had a brief sitting, and ad. vanced and pasaed several bills. In reply to Lord Sudeley, Lord Elphinstone explained that a letter had been written to Admiral Colomb making an offer' of 12,000,ancl until a reply was received he could not say whether the offer would be accepted. The House rose shortly before six o'clock. I HOUSE OF COMMONS.—TUESDAY. Mr. Cobb asked a question with reference to the non-attendance of magistrates at Southam, and the consequent interference with public business. The Home Secretary replied that he hai written to the clerk to the justices, asking for information on the matter. Mr. Chaplain, in reply to a member, promised that the Board of Agriculture should well consider any scheme for prop moting dairy education from whatever quarter it emanated. Replying to Mr. Haubury.Mr. Stanhope: explained that he had directed a report to be made; on the alleged jamming of the magazine rifle at the, Bisley rifle meeting last week. Mr. Jackson, in answer to Mr. Hanbury, gave the following particu- lars with reference to the emoluments of the depart- ment of the Master of the Hawks. The salary of the! Duke of St. Albans, as Master, was £ 391; that of | his four falconers, iCtOO; while the allowances for J hawks brought up the total to £ 1,373. The payments were subject to deductions in respect of land tax and fees, reducing the amount to 196.5. It was not precisely known how the deductions were made, and, therefore, it is only possible to assume they were made ratably from the salary and allowances. The law officers had advised that the payment of ¡' the salary and the allowances was binding on the nation. Several questions were asked with reference to the insertion of an arbitration clause in the Auglo-German and other agreements, but Sir J. Fergusson said the Government could not undertake any such engagements. They had already in recent instances shown their readiness to refer to arbitration special and defined cases, but there might to oauses of difference in which our indefeasable right might be challenged, and which could not be treated aa open questions. Mr. W. H. Smith informed Mr. Majoribanks that the .Government could hold out no hope of changing their views with reference to the allocation of the money set free under the Local Taxation Bill to the purposes of education, having ¡ regard to possible legislation next session. After some other business had been disposed of, the House went into Committee on the Local Taxation Bill, and again the Scotch members attempted to carry an amendment for the appropriation of the amount set free under the bill to the purposes of education in the higher standards, but the Govern- ) ment declined to give way, and the amendment, aa ¡ well as others, was rejected. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—WEDNESDAY. A writ was ordered to be issued for the election of a member for East Carmarthenshire in the room of the late Mr. D. Pugh. After some replies from Mr. W. H. Smith with reference to the courso of busi- ness, the House went into Committee on the Local Taxation Bill, and the discussion was resumed UrOD. the Chancellor of the Exchequer's proposal to add to | the second clause a sub-section providing for the dis- tribution of the money according to the respective valuations of the counties and police boroughs for the relief of local rates. The amendment proposed by Mr. Hunter, with the object of jreventing the money allotted to Scotland being handed over to the landlords, was rejected and on the question that the clause stand part oi the bill, Sir G. Trevelyan made a final protest against it on the ground that the opinion of the Scotch members on the question of ul ooating the money had been disreg irJed. Sir W. Harcourt also referred to the votiug in the various divisions on the clause, and eventually the closure was moved by Mr. Smith and the clause I agreed to without a division. The third clause, re- I lating to Ireland, waa agreed to with a minor I amendment and Clause 4, relating to the dis- tribution of sums for police superannuation in Eng- land and Scotland, was under discussion wheu pro- gross was reported. Some other business having been disposed of, the House adjourned at-0 minutes to six o'clock.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.— THURSDAY. Mr Stanhope stated that he had asked the Com- t mander-in-Cbief to examine the cases of the six I Guardsmen who were recently sentenced to imprison- ment, with a tiw tJ comUerin whether, with due ¡ regard to the requirements of military discipline, any j remission of punishment could be griLntAd -,Nlr Chaplin informed Mr Howell that he had arranged I for the appointment of a committee to consider what fuither regulations might be necessary to prevent or to minim ise the suffering of cattle on their passage to this country from Transatlantic rotti. —In reply to Mr Summers, Sir James Fergus- son s^id Her Majesty's Government cid not at present contemplate eending any further mission to the Vatican. Mr Russell having asked whether j there were any papers in the Foreign Office relating to "Sir George Eirington's mission to the Vatican," Mr Gladstone denied that there had been anything in the nature of such a mhs'on under any Government with which he had been connected, and he supported the reauest for papers, saying t'lat he should not be sorry to have the case I of Sir George Erringt 'n brought under die- cui-sion. Mr Smith promised to make inquiry irt-,) tie matter. In the course of a it tteme: t on the business of the House, Mr Smith said the Employers' 1 Liability Bill would not be pr(ceeded with. If possible, the Indian Councils Bill would be taken during the stages cf the Appropriation Bill. Ti e House again went into Cummiitae on the Local Taxa- tion Bill. Oa clause 8, reetricting the grant of new licences, Sir W. Lawson moved certain amenclmentp, Mr Ritchie accepted the amendments, but said that on the clause being put, the Government would vote againi-t it. Sir William Houldaworth said that if the Government cculd not accept the clause he should have to vote against them. On a divi--ion t%e c!aus-- was rcj.?cted by 157 to 128; and the (ther clausei having been disposed of, the Bill as amended w. s reported to the House. The House afterwards went into Committee of Supply, and the Post Office vote d. d was discusse d

The route for visitors has accordingly been altered, and the public are now afforded an opportunity ot view- ing the Rubens Room, the Council Chamber, and the Kinga' and Queens' cloeeta in addition to the apartments usually shown. THE Earl of Jersey has been appointed Governor of New South Wales, and his appointment ought to be a successful one.

He read it recently before a select audience in Tohio, and it is sai 1 that Mr. H. Deakin, a curio dealer, was SO fascinated by it that he haa acquired all the American rights fur £.5.000!

This peculiarity-found. it is said, in no other port-is accounted for thus: —The Isle of Wight beiug situated across the en- trance to Southampton Water a portion of the tidal wave in its progress up the Channel becomes separated from the main body, and, flowing up the Needles passage into the Soient.reachea Soutnampton and causes the first tide. This tide beginning to ebb ia stopped and driveu Lack again by the main stream from Spithead, and thus is caused the second tide about two how. later And six inehes higher than the first tide.. ■ THE War Office, I have good reason for stating, contemplates holding during the recess an exhaus- tive enquiry into the reguliit.ona bearing upon the volunleer toree and ita efficiency. This work will be undertaken from a conviction that it is neces- iary in the interest of the for-e itself, as tbo feel-' ing is growing that volunteer regiments have in too many cases simply become "adj utants' regimcIlts- in other words, that they are controlled with very little reference to the commanding officer. Mili- tary experts declare that one result of the present system is that the field officers are rarely allowed to handle the battalion of their own separate commands, and that the company officers are from want oi opportunity unequal to practical field work. WKETIIEQ the new docks will benefit Southampton to the extent that is predicted remains to be seen. When the Peninsular and Ori-ntal Steamship, Company's steamer ceased to call at the Hampshire port dismal forebodings were expressed concerning the future, and no doubt the diversion of so im- portant a stream of passenger traffic haa deprived the shopkeepers and hotel proprietor of a fruittul source of income. But the statistics relating to the docks show that if a portion. of ita passenger trade has gone, Southampton has secured other traffic in its place, and the expenditure of a further j quarter of a million upon dock improvements ia in itself a proof that the preseut energy goes hand is hand with confidence for the, future. —— BETWEEN 3 p.m. and midnight a vast amount of business is transacted every day at the House of Commons Poet Office. Not long ago Mr. Pike, who has charge of the postal arrangements at St. Stephen's, found it possible to keep pace with the work with two assistants only, but during the last few years things have uudergone a great change, and now the Parliamentary correspondence keeps nearly a score of clerks and letter-carriers fully occupied. In one week this session 32,000 letters, postcards, &c., were posted at the House of Com- mons. The average is considerably less than this, but in any case it will be seen that the staff can have very few leisure moments. Much additional work is thrown on the shoulders of the counter- clerks from the fact that members are so constantly changing their addresses. This year, for instance, no lewer than 1,500 of such changes have had to be noted. EISI.UY is no longer a doubtful experiment. Th* experience gained during the past fortnight on the breezy and picturesque Surrey Common has proved to demonstration that the move of the National Rifle Association's meeting ialikely to prove a huge success. Every one who has attended the recent meeting speaks of the new aite in glowing terms. Its healthiness, ita beauty, its adaptability for the purposes of camping, and, over all, its excellence as a shooting ground, all come in for eulogy, and even its accessibility is not denied. In fact, when ttima has been allowed to perfect the railway arrange- ments and the public have become more accustomed to the change of locality, it is confidently expected that Bisley will be quite as remunerative in the gate money point of view as Wimbledon. All this is highly satisfactory to friends of the Association, but the cost of transferring the meeting from its old to its new quarters has been so enormous that a national grant will probably be required to give the place a lair chance. To answer an advertisement published nearly forty years ago does not appear likely to be a profitable proceeding, but it is just now being attempted. As far back as December, 1S52, the next-of-kin of two persons who were known to have ilourished in the years 1800 and 1820 respectively were advertised for in the Times by a gentleman who gave no more precise address than the Charing Cross Post Office. Now one of the same name as the two persons indicated baseechea the advertiser or his representatives to communicate with him, and it would be interesting to know with what result. An even more curious search for next-of-kin is simultaneously being pursued. It appears that in 1692-3 certain London merchants and others became proprietors of shares in the West New Jersey Society. On those shares, though 80me of them are known since to have beeu vested in other hands, no dividend has been paid, and the personal representatives of the original proprietor. are accordingly invited to make good their claims. Here is a chance for genealogiata and heir-hunterfl which will assuredly not be missed. ABE the white gloves which it is customary to present to our judges on a maiden assize intended to be worn, and, if so, is any care taken to pro- vide their lordships with a reasonably good fit ? Lord Coleridge's obeeryation at Mold, "I am much obliged to you, I am sure, and I will make a point of wearing tbem-if I can," may have referred to the fact that white kid gloves are not much in lushion now. On the other hand, it may be that the High Sheriff has taken a hint from that con- tractor for police boots in a provincial borough who chose for his standing model the biggest foot in the force, so as to make sure at least that they could all get on." Thia point, however, is less important than the Lord Chief Justice's observations on Welsh crime in particular, and on assizes in general. His lordship had goue through all North Wales before arriving, in Mold, and everywhere had he found crime and criminals getting more or less soarce. In Flintshire, he admitted, they might dispense with the judges' visits altogether; but for all this his lordship does not agree with those who think that sesizea geuerally in amall counties might be abolished, or these counties grouped with others. If the important principle of bringing justice as it were to people's doors, and of taking care to pro- vide the best skill in its administration, is to be upheld, Lord Coleridge does not see how any serious modification of the present system em be possible.

I Society ocootp. - - - -…
I Society ocootp. (From World.) The Koyal yacht Alberta haa not only undergone a thorough overhaul and refit, but the cabins have been redecorated very tastefully, and the furniture has been renewed. The Queen expressed her approbation of the arrangements when she crossed the Solent the other day. It is understood that the patterns were selected by Princess Beatrice.. -the Prince of Wales's yacht, the Aline, which is to take part in some of the squadron reg ittas. Lext week, has uudergone an extensive rent at Cowea during tLe last few weeks, and she hae been fitted with new masts and a new deck. The Duke and Duchess of Connaught and their, children have gone down to Osborne to relieve1 Princess Chrislinn in her attendance or. the Queen.' The Duke and Duchess are, it is said, writing au. Kcjount of their Indian experiences, taken from the i long weekly letters they wrote to the Queen. The i book is to be illustrated by the DucLeza, who took j many hundred sketches during her stay there. She; is a very good artist. j The Duke of Clarence and Avondale goes to Cortachy Castle on the 12th of August for the opening of the grouse-shooting. Lord Airlie's moor is a very good one, and has suffered less from the i cold rains than most of the moors in that locality. I hear that Kiugf Charlea of Roumania, who is member of the Hoheuzollern-Sigmaringen family, j is to be made a Knight of the Garter He will pro- I bably be invested at Bucharest by the Prince rf Wales in October next. The Prince of Wales is j.0 ng to Hungary towards the end of September to visit Count Pestetics and Count Karolyi, aud there will be a series of hunting parties on their respective estates. The Emperor William is about to create an Imperial decoration, consisting of a Gothic 1 cross bearing a portrait of his grandfather on the 1 reverse, as a reward for services rendered to the Empire. Up to the present time all tha d;Hereub decorations which have been at tLe disposal ol the three German Emperors are exclusively of Prussian origin. Their donor invariably confers them in his capacity of King of Prussia. The new ? cross is to be given alike to meitorioaa Germans and ¡ distinguished Germans. The Emperor has ordered several designs and specimens of the Imperial cross to be prepared for his inspection. Count Kalnoky is at last convalescent. He has been permitted by his doctors to return t ° Vienna, but they have cautioned him strongly again at iesuming hard work too suddenly. Alderman Sir Reginald Hanson, Bart., has just received from the King of the Hellenes the decora- tion of Commander of the Order of the Redeemer of Greece. — n From Truth. I announced last week that, by order of the Queen, the BraeLuar gathe, ing is to be held this year at Balmoral. Ti.ese arrangements are exceedingly unpopular on Deeside. It suits excursionists from Aberdeen very nicely, but it is most inconvenient for the inhabitants of the district. Three yeari ago, when the gathering was last held at Balmoral, it degenerated into a druukn orgie of the most pande- moniacal kind, and it may be hoped that adequate steps will be taken to prevent a repetition of the dis- graceful scene which then. took place. I The Queen is to invest the Emperor William n ith the Grand Cross of the Bath during his visit to Osborne. How strange is the pasaiou that pervades all Royal breasts to be decked out with ribbons like an ox at a cattle show It is officially announced that the Duchess of Fife is "quite convalescent," but I am sorry to hear that she looks wretchedly ill, and people who saw her last week were painfully struck by her wan and delicate appearance. In accordance with the old custom, the Bishop of Winchester is to be allowed to retain his insignia as Prelate of the Order of the Garter, and it will, no doubt, become an heirloom in his family. As I have before explained, however, the Quean has now signed a memorandum which stipulates that in future the Bishops of Winchester are to hold the insignia merely during their term of office, and that it is to be returned to the Lord Chamberlain on death or resignation. Princess Beatrice and Prince Henry of Battenberg are to return to Osborne about August 12th from Germany. I hear that tho Queen has given Frogmore to Princess Beatrice, in order that she may have a resi- dence at Windsor in case of her Majesty's demise. Frog more is technically a portion of Windsor Castle. The Queen intends to exhibit her famous Aberdeen Angus heifers-" Princess Irene" and Princess Beatrice Third"—at the Highlands and Agricutural Society Show at Dundee. These animals belong to the herd on the Balmoral home farm at Abargeldie Mains, from which stock has hardly ever been exhibited. The original MS. of Captain Cook's log of his journey round the world in 1768-71 was sold, I notice, at a public sale last week- But how is it, let me ask, that such a document as this has got into private hands? It ought in due course to have reached tho Public Record Office, and it would be interesting to loam why it is that it is not in safe custody there. The Emperor of Russia's wedding present to the Archduchess Valerie onsists of a large cabinet of magnificent furs, including a superb collection of sable, ermiue, sealskin, and blue fox. The Shah has sent her a large brooch of great value, repre- senting a rose. The Russian Government is building four ironclads in the Black Sea. (From 8t. StephenReview.) H.R.H. the Duke of Clarence aud Avondale is now rapidly improving in health, though still slightly indisposed. The Prince had a sharp attack of fever, and was really ill when he opened the new Courts of Justice at York last week, but as he did not wish to disappoint the sightseers he would not put off the engagement. The Duke is now in garrison at York, but in a short time will proceed to Scarborough or one of the Yorkshire watering-places to complete his convalescence.JThe honorary colonelcy of the 3rd London Rifles, vacant by the death of Lord Napier of Magdala, haa been accepted by His Royal Hitrhness. The Prince and Princess of Wales will remain at Cowes until about the 14th of August, and will then leave England for their visit to the Continent. The Prince of Wales will join the Duke of Cambridge at Homburg, and the Princess, after visiting the Duke and Duchess of Cumberland at Gmunden. will join her Royal parents in Denmark for the Autumn. The Duke of Cambridge is another of the iroyal Family who will not be present to meet the German Emperor at Cowe& Instead of that,he will visit the Emperor's dominions in order to recruit his health at the Homburg baths. On his way the Duke will atop at Bonn on the 1st of August to inspect the 2nd Battalion of the 28th Regiment of Infantry,of which he is the titular chief, and on; the following day no will review the two other battalions at Coblentz. The Emperor William was very anxious to be pre- sent in person at Heligoland when the island is given over to Germany in September, but as it would be contrary to German etiquette for the Emperor to go unless Her Majesty were present, he has been ro- luctantly obliged to abandon the idea. In all proba- bility the Duke of Edinburgh and Prince Henry of Prussia will represent the two countries at the cere- mony and subsequent naval demonstration. The little King of Spain has never quite recovered from the serious illness which attacked him last winter, but, thanks to the fine sea air of San Sebas- tian, he has now greatly improved in health. His mother, the Queen Christiua, is naturally most an- I xious about his health, and has decided to keep her son at the seaside until late in the autumn, as Madrid in the hot season is by no means a desir- able place of residence for a child. The little king ia very bright and intelligent, and enjoya the free- dom and absence of restraint; at ban Sebastian extremely. The Comte de Paris and the Duo d'Orleans will sail for New York at the end of September. The Comte de Paris will only remain in the United States for about a month, but the Dae d'Orleans will make a prolonged visit, and will not return to England for at least six months. The Due de Chartres, has left England for his country seat, St. Ternin, near Chantilly, where his daughter, Princesae Waldemar of Denmark, has arrived on a visit to her parents. Local papers do make funny mistakes. A local journal affirmed that the Bishop of St. Asaph recently spoke of something that he had doue in his younger and masher days." As a matter of fact, the worthy prelate said rasher." I hoar Bermuda was substituted for the 2nd Grenadier Guards' destination instead of the Cape, as Sir Henry Loch is supposed to have asked for two regiments for the Cape in case of possible emergencies, SO had the Guards been sent there it would have looked as if they had been sent on active service instead of being puuished .thereby.
