'The Election.
The returns of yesterday's eliestion indicate
the election of 001.' eiiinhiew
as Governor of PetiljOilypia, by an uopre•
cedonted majority:: iiirrArairssts silence has
assisted him, itArotO seem; with 1201-Section
of the Demociattn pasty: -.The vote has been
unusually large;and the defeat singularly sig
nificant. The returns speak in bolder and
stronger Saxon than we can write.
There can now happily be no more balking
of, the great question - involved in the. Presi
dential struggle. Thei reasons in favor of a
combination against ABRAHAM LINCOLN, how
ever they. May 'hive operated prior to the
election decided yesterday, and however they
may operate in advance of that which is to be
decided on the first Tuesday of November
coming, cannot be effective tiejen men come 'to
choose , between candidates, ecillo-,pf whose re
presents a principle antagonistic to the other.
Now, we take it there can be no more union
between BRIM/MIDGE and Doutmas than be
trieen two _naturally repulsive forces. Each
represents' a distinctive platform. No advo
cate of Mr. DOUGLAS believes, or affects to
believe, in the doctrine r pon which lifej6r
Basocutime stands, and no advocate of
Major Baserruninaa believes, or affects to
believe, in the doctrine upon which Mr. Don.
outs stands. The Southern friends of Bnzox
' ISEIDOS, more frank than the most of the
friends of Dortmas, declare, as a general
thing, that under no circumstances will they
bee accept either the candidate or the creed
upon which the regular Democracy stand.
In the language of Senator Berammt,
Louisiana, in his last great speech, they would
not accept victory if their platform was to be
construed in ono way in the North, and ano
ther way in the South. They believe that the
institution of slavery is carried by the Consti
tution of the United States into the Territo
ries of the Union, and that it Must be protected
there against the popular will, and rather than
*yield this principle, or submit to the election of
a Northern man to the Presidency of the United
States, like Assarisx Lurcoot, the most of
them would be willing to justify a preparation
for secession from the Union. They have
made the issue. Standing upon this idea,
they have so consolidated the Southern peo
ple around their candidate, Mr:BaEOKINRIDOE,
that we shall not be surprised, since
Colonel Conrut's election, to see a very
large majority of the Southern people de
cide in favor of that candidate. They
are sensible of this great advantage; and
while in the Southern ;Aster; they reject with
disdain all coalitions with Mr. Buz, whom
they "regard as a traitor to Southern institu
tions, and trample upon Mr. Douones as an
enemy equally hostile to them with Mr. Sew-
ARO himself, they are, with condescending sa
gacity, particularly willing to unite with the
friends or BELL and DOUGLAS In the free States
to carry electors against Loewe, because they
know that in such a combination they will be
able to gain something. which will be added
to the controlling aggregate of their triumphant
electoral vote in the South.
EVFRY FUSION IN THE FREE
STATES, THEREFORE, IS INTENDED
TO PROMOTE THE ELECTION OF JOHN
C. BRECKINRIDGE TO THE PRESIDEN
CY OF THE UhITED STATES.
The friends of Mr. DOVOLAS, rather than see
themselves used as instruments in favor of ex
treme Southern Dlimnionism, will now leave
the responsibility of the coming result to
those who, while protesting that the election
of anits.natt LuwoLN must lead to the disso.
bitten of the Union, stubbornly refused to sus
tain and support the only candidate before the
American people who could have prevented
the election of Mr.Lutoor,s.
The Prince to' be Gothamized I
The Prince of WALES, it is to be feared, will
be pestered to death in "the Metropolis," as
Mr. 1:111.1un's w distinguished" friend, for
whom Proscenium Box No. I has been so os
tentatiously reserved, facetiously calls New
York, in apparent forgetfulness that there is
such a place as Washington, the seat of Go
vernment.
The Herald, which is amusingly suggestive,
at times, states that the Prince "will have
but two dear days in the Metropolis." Mr.
friend has doubtless bespoken
cloudless skies from the Clerk of the Weather?
it is recommended that on Friday be shall
be taken to see the city sights, "beginning
with Broadway, sad coming down from Twenty
third street, stop at various points of interest,
the great shops and bazaars, which are, ex.
tetrnally, the most splendid in the world. He
would probably be pleased with a look in at
BALL lit-Husex's and STZWAUT'S." This is
precise* the way in which the poor Japanese
were taken, in "to see the city sights,"
dragged from store to store; and almost
forced to buy all sorts of useless and mostly
valueless gimcracks. Happily, were the
Prince so disposed, he ban men of the world
with him who will not allow him to be thus
Japanned.
Next, he Is to visit BRADT'S photographic
gallery, where be will certainly find enough to
occupy lum,for some hours. After that, he is
advised to visit Wall street, which is simply a
bear-garden of gamblers and speculators.
This is positively all that is marked out as
appropriate occupation for one day : a ride
down Bioadway, and a visit to some shops,
SHADY'S Gallery, and Wall street.
For Saturday, however, something eery
charming is suggested—namely, a ride through
the Central Park and a visit to Washington
Heights. There is the Deaf and Dumb Asylum,
and there a view from the most elevated point
of Washington Heights, which, we are told,'
It has been pronounced the most superb pano
rama that this country or Europe affords."
Which is the said point 1 Suppose it should
be at the memorable little tt wllia," on said
Heights, whicb,with its diminutive spot of lawn
Awl pigmy flower-beds, constitutes the private
residence, the rue in orbs, of to-night's dis
tinguished " occupants of proscenium box No.
1. We should not wonder ! frovv adroitly
BIRISZTT lays a trap to catch a live Prince on
his precincts, Just as he caught the Japanese.
But it will scarcely succeed, Mr. Beaserr is
too ge distinguished " for so thoroughly unpre
tending a person as the Prince.
We pass by the remainder of the suggestion
—about steaming into the But River and
thence to Staten Island—well knowing that if
the Prince can only be coaxed into the
little wills, he must be so entirely fascinated
there as td have no desire to leave it in a
hurry. He is recommended to visit Trinity
Church on Sunday, and Barmen thus impos
ingly concludes "By aiepthig some such
programme as that we have indicated, the
Prince's entertainers - can show him as much of
New York as it will be possible for him to see
in the limited time which he spends here—so
limited that he has been obliged to decline all
private parties without exception." Yes, all.
lie did not even accept the Bennett invitation
to drop in and take potluck with them at Wash
ington Heiihts.

BOSTON', Oat. 9.—lt h rumored that the new
steamship Connaught, of the Galway line, was
burned at sea on Sunday last.
A part of her orew and passengere, saved by a
brig, aro Bald to have arrived at Scituate.
The Connaught sailed flora Glasgow on the 25th
ultimo, and readied St. Johns, N. 8., on the 3d
instant. She sailed thence for Now York on the
same day.
SZOOND DRSPATCII.
Passengers and Crew all Saved.
BOSTON, Cot. 9.—lt has been_ ascertained that
the steamship Connaught sprung a leak on Satur
day, and on Banday took fire when 140 miles from
Boston light.
It Is reported that the passenger? and orew were
all savod by the brig Minnie Schiffer. A towboat
has been despatched from this port Ina, the purpose
of bringing the brig and her passengefe here.
Boarow Oat. 0 — Dept. Labatt, of the steamship
Connaught, reports that on the Oth inst., at eight
o'clock in the evening, when one hundred and fifty
miles east of Boston, the ship sprung Moak in the
engine-room. The crew succeeded in keeping the
leak below the fire till rano o'clock on Sunday
morning, when the water gained rapidly, extin
guishing the Ares.
At 9 80 A. M , smoke was discovered issuing
from the aft stoke•pole, and notwithstanding the
utmost exertions the fire gained and soon drove the
cabin passengers on deck.
The water and fire both making rapid progress,
the boats were got ready. Owing to the heavy
sea, the first one larboard was etovo. Six other
boats were launched successfully and filled with
passengers. About 12 o'clock the brig Minnie
Schiffer saw the signet's of distress flying 6, and here
down for the wreak, and about 7 °Wools in the
evening the embarkation of the passengers was
commenced, the, brig having a hawser attaohod to
the steamer, the starboard aide of which was very
hot.
At thirty minutes post 9 o'clock all the pasion.
gera were taken on board the brig.
Capt. Leitch was the last to leave the wreck.
The weather bad boon pleasant after leaving St.
Johns on Wednesday at two o'clock P M , until
Saturday, when there was a very heavy blow from
the southwest.
The last seen of the Connaught waa at two &Wolk
on Wednesday morning, when she was a complete
mass of flames.
There warn on board the Connaught 50 cable
passengers, 417 steerage, and 124 of the orew. All
were saved.
The paosengero mitred nothing, exeopt the olothee
in vadat' they stood.
The mails were, however, saved.
- Captain Leitch and Mr. Cox. a passenger, land
ed at Scituate this morning, and arrived here at
11 o'olook.
It is supposed that the fire had been smouldering
a long time, from the rapid progress made by the
flames after being discovered. The captain is
unable to amount for_ the leak, which filled the
vessel rapidly against all the efferts of the pumps.
The Connaught was valued at £120,000, and was
fully insured in England. She was of iron, and
was launched at Newcastle on Tyne in Aprielast.
She was over 4 000 boos burden, and had five wa
ter-tight compartments. •
The brig bikini's Staffer arrived at one o'clock.
Sha is about 200 tons burden, anti the standing
room on her was completely covered by the res
cued passengers of the Connaught.
Mr. If. Whitten, of New York, a paminger In
the Connaught. furnishes the following statement
as to the loss of that fine steamship:
Passing .the eireumstances of the voyage from
Galway, which port we left at 5 P. EL on the 25th
nit, until aboutB P. M. of Saturday the, Bth 'nat.,.
hooey.: While heading westwardly, the wind blow-,
lag a northerly gale, the ship began to roll to the
larboard with a singular motion, going far down,
and keeping that way'a longtime, which °awed
some ,alarm. Meantime, the Captain was heard'
giving orders about steer ing, manning the pumps,
ao Firemen under the lee of the p e ddle-1m were'
observed whispering, and there Were other maul
feetations that something was not right: 'Conside

ship righted, and the wheels commenced turning,
when the paseengers,became more composed The
sea was rough, the wind blowing what sailors call
en ordinary full gale. Most of the passengers
turned in, but passed a restless night. •
fluenay, 8 A. M.--The Alp began to roll again
with that stagy motion similar to the evening
previous. .The
the sh ip. 'crew could neither
tack nor wear the ship. Soon after, the engine
stopped, and steam could not be raised in the boll
ere. The ship rolled frightfully to the larboard,'
and the pumps ware inanned; and gangs of men
commenced bailing with buokets„ At ten o'clock
it was reported' that the water was not gaining,
but, on the oonttary, that the pumps and boilers
were gaining on the leak, and if the wind would
stlifen a we would reach Boston* that night. .But
these hopes wore soon changed to actreme terror,
when the word 'was passeu round, in IoW tones
"The strip le on fire !" accompanie d by the email'
at burning wood.
, The fire appeared between the decks' Gangs
were immediately formed, with pumps and buck
et,. to extinguish the flames, taking the water
from the sea aaa passing it in imakets. Ae the
fire gained the sailors began to sleeken work, all
eyes staring around the horizon in hopes to see
some means of safety. Several false reports of a
vestal in sight wore made, but at last we discover
ed a sail to the northward, and soon after another
to the westward, both very low down; but-it be
came plain at one o'clock that both were nearing
us, and the vessel steering north had three mists,
and the one west only two.
We soon found out that the latter was passing,
while the other still neared without showing any
sign that she noticed us. which kept as In ex terse
anxiety and doubt until she bore directly for us,
evidently showing that she observed the steamer's
fined distress, widish had been hoisted since mid
day. We tben commenced to steer away and
latumb boats, which was a very difficult job, the
ship lying Rimester' her side In a trough of the sea.
By this time the fire had cutoff all communication
with the saloons The first quarter boat lowered
was struck by the counter and loaf, which caused
hesitation about launching the others. But the
worst of oar 'fears was, that supposing the boats
should ride the sea, which then showed , signs of
moderating, and t hat we could safely lannott and
fill them with passengers, there wee no chance of
remaining but a Abort time on board, the fire
making mesh progress.
The flames were momentarily expected to burst
out sad sweep the decks, ttbe fire-gangs
having given up all hopes of extinguishing them.
but continuing to apply wet blankets, etc. ,The
tilde of the ship was then so hot that when she
rolled it would hiss and make steam of the sea wa
ter. The gallant little Yankee brig sailed along
side and hove to, easing our deplorable situation,
and showing every sign of anxiety for us; but we
began to think it would be impossible to stow all
our numbers on board, she looked so email. We
have since ascertained that she was only 108 tons
burden. Capt. Leitott made all haste to get us
into the boats, which Pas extremely difficult, be
ing lowered one by one with ropes. Capt. Leltob
stood by all the time, commeneing with the wo
men and - children, bitt with all the, exertions
that could be made, when the sun went down
only about two hundred had been got on board the
brig. Capt. Wilson, of the brig, said, "This is a
horrible affair, to see the sun going down and so
many people yet on board, the wreck settling down
and burning up. I will do all in my power to save
them." Several of the boat's crews on reaching
the brig retailed to return, when Capt.-Wilaon said,
" I will go almost alongside, and take a hawser
(rem on board, and then you will be in little or no
danger. I must get every one from the wreck."
Thle be did, which had the effect of giving confi
denim ; and by great exertion, all were got on
bo ad the brig by 11 o'clock P. M.
Capt. Leitett and his firs', offieor remained on
board until almost surrounded with flame, and un
til every soul was saved. Capt. Wilson then sent
alongside to beg him to oome away. The flames
were shooting up the masts, throwing a strong and
melancholy light over the sea. Capt Leech
reached the brig just at midnight. Scarcely a
parcel of baggage was saved, the trunks and even
money of the cabin pareengers being left below
during the confusion and the alarm which called
them on deck in the morning; after which cam
munloatlon was out off by the water and flames.

LTILE ELECTION YESTERDAY.
Scenes and Incidents Last Night
The election yesterday was very quiet and or
derly, but nevertheless a large vote was polled.
The result in the city will be found in another part
of to-day's Press. The anxiety to learn the result
was very great, and the club-rooms and newspaper
aloes were besieged with politiolans, up to a late
hour last night, waiting for the returns. The an
nexed account will give some idea of the scenes
and incidents which occurred after the closing of
the polls.
The scene in the streets was of the most ani
mated description Soon after sun down, bonfires
blezed in every direction, and the clouds were
reddened with the glare of burning barrels and
every article of a combustible nature that could
be brought into requisition by the juveniles, who.
upon the occasion of an election, seem privileged
to press into the service all the grocers' bar
rels and - boxes which may have been incau
tiously loft exposed upon the sidewalks or at
the doors of stores. Not only grocers' combusti
bles, but bakers' barrels, and in many eases the
lime-boxes pl builders, who had gone home and
left them exposed, were hauled away by an army
of youngster's, and plaint upon the blazing piles
Tho youngsters shouts and cheered for roater and
Curtin (for the whole interest appeared to be
centred upon these two) with as much zeal at.
their more mature seniors, who had bet hate, boots,
and money upon the result.
Shortly after 8 o'clock. great crowds of men be
gan to assemble on Chestnut street, and from Third
to Tenth streets the sidewalks were almost impassa
ble, being blacked up by thousands anxious to hear
the result. If two gentleman happened stopped a
moment, and ono asked the other "how is it go
ing ?" Instantly a crowd wee gathered, and every
body asked everybody else what's the news ?"
In this way an hour was passed, the crowd every
moment increasing till it was almost Impossible to
" navigate" through the dense throng. We de
spatched a special reporter to the headquarters of
the respective parties, and shall permit them to
give a brief account of the seem whit& took
place.
TUE DOUGLAS HEADQUARTERS
The Douglas headquarters, at Fifth'and Chest
nut streets was not very crowded In the early
part of the evening. but towards 10 o'clock it be
gan to fill up almost to suffocation. A party of
men occupied the platform, at the northern end,
busily engaged In figuring cut the returns from the
several precincts of the city as they come in. As
the returns began to come in very favorably for
Foster, from the different wards. they were an
pounced by Frederick A Van Cleve, in a SOM.
rian voice, to the assemblage, who cheered lustily
for Foster.
Thle was kept up (luring the whole evening,
while crowds of men were, onetantly passing in
and out
" What's Foster'e majority in the oily?"
Can't tell—the returns ain't all in yet, but it
lo'ke as if he'd have eight or ten thousand."
"That bully," says a big, red-feeed fellow, "I
knowed it would be so." What did your pre•
&not give ?" " Why, we increased our majority
40 over Robbins' vote last spring." "Good for
you." Them end similar expressions were the or
der of the night.
THE rsoptr's READ QUARTERS
The doors of the People's Headquarters., In
Chestnut street, above Sixth, were closed in front,
bat access was had by the roar of Dr Jayne's new
onildings, on the site of the old Arcade, on Jayne
street No one was admitted except those having
a ticket.' A dim tallow candle lighted - the -en
trance, and the visitors were obliged to grope their
Way over rough boards laid upon the joist of
the first floor of the new buildings. From thence
they passed into the office of the Commonwealth
PITO [neurone° Company, and through It up stairs
to the room of the State Committee, on the second
story. Rare were a large number of politicians
deeply interested in the result. Charles 51. Neal,
the City Commissioner, eat at a table, busily
figuring up the returns as they came in. At
the side of the table sat Dr Jayne, anxiously
awaiting the result The Hon. Alexander MoOlure,
John D Watson, Geo. B. Earle, and other promi
nent Nepublioane, were scattered around. peering
over the shoulders of the party at the table. Se•
veral reporters of the New York papers were pre
rent, and as 000 A as a few returns were made oat,
a messenger was despatched tp the telegraph
office, to send to New York the Result. At first,
it looked rather gloomy as the returns from
the city earns in, but when the returns from the
Interior counties were announced, the spirits of
the party brightened up, and a belta of eatie
faction pervaded the room. The -Hon.. Megan
der McClure announced the returns from the
front botany to the crowd in the street, and
when they were favorable they would be received
with deafening sheers for Curtin from the crowd
without. When the vote of Al , egtsny county— ,
6,000 majority for Curtin—was announced, a shout
wont up which could be heard for squares around.
The erowd remained in front of the headquarters
up to a late hour, unwilling to go home until they
felt certain all was right "
Tug IVOPOBLICAN TITIADQUARTBRS.
The headquarters of the Republican Invloolbies,
at Seventh and Chestnut streets, wore orowded,
and the returns were received and read out as fast
as they came in. Much enthusiasm prevailed, but
at first it looked a little unfavorable for their can
didate, as the city returns came in. The fifth story
of the building, in which the armory of the Re
publican Invincibles is situated,-was brilliantly
lighted up. and a TO* of lamps wee suspended from
below the windows both on the Chestnut-street and
Seventh street treats. At a late hour. when the
returns from the interior counties indicated the
eleotion of Mr. Curtin, the club made preparations
for a grand torchlight proemial on.
THE MILL MID BITRETT HEADQUARTERS
The gathering at the Bell and Everett Head
quarters was very large. The returns were an
nounced from the stand by Charles D. Freemen,
the candidate of the Bell and Everett party for
Prothonotary of the District Court, who assured
his hearers that there was no doubt of Henry D.
Foster being elected by a large majority. The
feeling here was very enthusiastic, and long and
loud cheers were given for Foster, Bell and Eva
rest, &o. The 'Minute Men of '56, headed by
Beck's band, formed in procession, and about one
thousand marched down Chestnut street, cheer
ing lustily for Foster. Oa passing the Conti
nental Hotel the Prince of Wales and the'
British noblemen stopping there appeared at the
front • windows to view the procession as it
passed by. The column passed on dow Chestnut
street, and before remixing Seventh street, where `
a large number of Republicans were standing on
the pavement, the hand struck up " Oh, dear, what
can the matter be?" and many of the men in the
line took up the tune, and sang It es they passed
along. The streets being densely blocked up with
people, great difficulty was experienced by the
procession in getting through. The sections were
broken, and a scene of confusion ensued, the dense,
mass heaving and surging backwards and for
wards. Some strong expletives passed between
the opposing parties ' but no blows were struck.
it being almost impas sible; owing to the density of
the crowd.
Tho procession was nearly divided in the centre
by this little smelts, hut they reformed again, and
parsed down towards Sixth street. About halfway
in the square they met the immense crowd in front
of the People's heedquertere Here there wee
another scene of confusion. cheering, and groaning,
which lasted for a long time, but the Belt Eraretts
finally parsed through, and- marched down Cheat
nut street to Third, and past the newspaper of
does.
TUN TRNIMURIDGE HEADQUARTERS
The Breckinridge Headquarters. at Tenth and
Chestnut streets. wee pretty well tilled daring the
evening. The returns were announced by James
J Martin, secretary of the Wane Men'e Brachia
ridge end Line Club,-and np to 10 o'olook the
pression prevailed that Foster had earried the
votes. The gains for Foster over Mayor Henry'
vote in several of the city wards last spring were
bailed with loud applause. At the time the Bell.
Everett moession moved, a number of the Break
inridgersj ,ined, in carrying a transparently, " We
go for Henry D Easter, a white man."
The partisan newspaper aloes were filled from
early in the evening till two o'clock this morning
with expectant crowds Third street was thronged
with men. The North. American office had
mounted in the afternoon a jet of gins, on which
was inscribed " Victory." At midnight this was
lighted up. The dense throng of mon blackened
the street. The cheers were frrquent. until the
returns indicated sufficiently the election of An
drew G. Curtin ; then the shouts thrilled the mul
titude. Tho mingled infittenees of enthusiasm and
spirits operated upon the congregated mind, and
the furore for Curtin and the whole ticket wee
wonderful. Curtin men offered to bet at any odds
—" ten to five—ten to ono."
The Preen rifle e was besieged. At seven o'clock
the first enthusiasts came in. They crowded the
counter, and being momentarily augmented, indi
viduals had the effrontery to climb into the sane•
runt sanctorum. At ten o'clock the find returns
came in ; they heralded the triumph of Curtin ; the
Foster men Molted grim • the Curtin 'asen were ex
ultant. The latter sai d that they expected as
much; the former stated that "Foster did not de
serve anything ciao; for hadn't he failed to state
his true position before the Democratic messes?"
Every five minutes the returns came fn; now
from remote counties ; now from adjacent distrieta.
At times the Democratie heart exulted ; at times
sank with fear, The writ and extreme north of
the State gave the death blow to the triende of
Foster. These border counties, seemingly 'mitten
by the Northern sentiment of adjacent States,
gave tremendous increases for Curtin. Then the
Republican minority glow uproarious, and the De
mocrats waxed weak. It was in vain to urge
silence when new returns were received. At the
reading of the returns from each county, intoxi
cated men in paroxysm of friendship embraced
eaoh other, and anwre eternal friendship. Many
i n di v id ua l s ma de Foster brothers of very unworthy
men, and the Curtain of obliviousness fell before
the frailties of many erring partisans.
As the returns mime in with the fluctuating tee.
timonies, the niternate sheer and despair upon the
film of men were plainly marked Many had
bet extravagantly upon the result of the ballots,
end as the chances of winning or losing strength
ened, end weakened hopes fell and fears areended.
Ales ! the sober issues involved in popular ad
judications must be forever mingled with unwise
ventures, and the laborer, whose enthusiasm in
elections outweighs his prinionee, finds the defeat
of his favorite untimely to himself and his re
sources. It is not sage to wager

George H. Moore, People's candidate for Protho-
notary, had a table provided tu the station, where
they received the returns of the election. It was
at lint opined that the Democratic ticket was
elected by a powerful majority; but after returns
lessened the seeming aggregate, and rendered less
offeetnal the People's defeat in the city. The
messages from various wards were despatohed to

We sketched at some length, yesterday, the suite

of Mr., Cardigan, we were yesterday permitted to
examine the completed arrangements, about an

magnificent canopy or arch of rtmerloan and Bri

with stars of silver. At each aide of the broad
hall stand rare exotic plants, mingling their green
leaves end rich perfumes. The tall mirror at the
foot of the ball repeats the images of these, and
from the distance the illusion is so great that we
seem to gaze down a half mile of richly carpeted
hall, lighted with jets of flame, and bordered with
continuous evergreens and shrubs. The Prinott'a
parlor is nnostentationsly rich; a bright coal fire
sparkles in the grate ; the sofas are- seated with
velvet, richly wrought with groups of flowers.
The bed is curtained with a canopy of satin

leaves and silken tassels. The bed Is of rielf dark

The Philadelphia reporter has long ago given up
all hopefif ourtery and assistanee from efairials,

this city, Councils voted him a badge, but the
badge did not protest him from insulting cabmen
and impudent police. So, yesterday, the courtesies
tendered to the representatives of the pubilo in the
daily press were very meagre, and in many gru
ters almost unbearable. They were fulled hither
and thither, ordered here and there, end regarded
as impootors.MM.
There wore not more than five hundred people
in front of the depot; many of there were females.
They peered in the front gate and crowded the
steps; a number of urehins in dilapidated pants
and patched jackets mounted the fence. Some
ladies, wives or railroad official:l, bad places at the
depot windows overlooking the platform. The
roof of a portion of the depot adjacent to the

The Prince -had- not • graeeful movements; he
walked with a shuffling, sailor-Mks gait, and bent
his body torward. When, be descended from-the
car, the nobleman of his suite premed esgerlibe
hind him, and the reporters, - railroad officers, etc.,
made a general rush forward The ardat - of a
New York illustrated paper made if batty sketch
of the scene, and the cabmen from the' °Odds
blockaded the long rol of doors, to Satisfythem
selves of the royal youth's appearance. The line
moved. with but- a-motneutlry pause, toward the
Prince's baroutibe. at the .head of the platform
The-Mayor and-Prince led off, followed by the
Duke of Newcastle find Lord Lyons.
Then canoe the Earl ht. Germain, and a number
of snobbish-looking Britons, who took the seem i
and third hart:niches The Prince, the Mayor, the
Duke and Lord Lyons took seats in the front car
riage ; the royal conifer, Mr Richmeyer: mourn
ed with the driver. The crowd pressed curiously
around the vehicle; the boys on the fence faintly'
cheered ; the front' gates of the depot yard swung
open; the outside crowd fell beck; and the Prince
drove swiftly away, touching his hat.
Than went the future King of England, .with his
noblemen to do him honor, and the executive of a
strange but great city to' welcome him to Its hompi
talitiee. And the eyes which , fell upon him will
twinkle 'often and again at the story of his coming
goodness, or tremble perhaps at the tiding! of his
guilt. In Ms boyish destiny lies the keeping of a
race, and to hie SiXell features end flaxen hair, a
realm will one day point with pride, or look with
torsos. And In the nipping air and clear evening,
he rode away, and as lee vaendied, the en% moist
rose np to lay: "Prince of Berland, uneasy is the
head which wears a crown;" and the reporter,
who had been snubbed by the railroad officials, ant
whose highest colorise lay in chronicling the garb
and movements of the stranger, turned to bLe pen
cil and notes with never a thrill of envy, but a
cheerier content. -
After the Prince and suite had driven off. the
servants beefed themselves in emptying the bag-
gage ear. All kinds of odd bundles, beau, and
trunks appeared. Ono publican, with a grievously
epooney face, carried a bundle of wines. "H. li.
Ii "was written on much of the baggage.
The outside delegation toured into the depot
when the suite had driven - off, and inspooted the
car with evidences of wonderful curiosity. Not
being able toiled anything in the shape of brace
lets and miniature sceptres. they gradually flied
out. It was-somewhat amusing- to see onegf the
railway officials, who had rebuffed the reporters at
various times and in divers ways, walk up to them
after the termination of events, and coolly state
that they were indebted to him for their facilities.
The royal party came up Broad street, the
Prince in the open baroness); and great masses of
people gazed silently and respeetfully upon him
A dense throng , had assembled in front of the
Continental Hotel when the Prince came in. He
avoided the people by dismounting in Ninth street,
and quietly going to his rooms by the stairway
opening upon that street.
Dating the evening Chestnut street was thronged.
The Prince made his appearance upon Walnut
street in company with the British consul, an hour
after his arrival. Not being generally recognised,
he found his walks unimpeded.
In the night time the only display was that of
Warner, Aliskey, itMerrill. These gentleman bad,
in jets of flame, _before their store, the words :
" Welcome, Viatorla'a Son!"
