It is wonderful tc note the amount of literature produced
in England about the Prince's visit. Not only have two columns of the Times been daily devoted to his proceedings, but supple- mentary telegrams announce these proceedings to the last moment thus :—"Evening.—The Prince visited the College of Surgeons to-day, attended by Lord Mayo and others." A very right thing for the Prince to do, no doubt ; but it is wonderful that any one should care to know it at all, much less so intensely that it is thought worth while to telegraph it. The material of the good Prin- cess's dress at the installation,—tabinet,—was also telegraphed to England. After all, the world is a good deal more interested in the forms of things, than in their substance.
