SCOTLAND.
The Prince of Wales is diligently pursuing his studies at Holyrood. He has found time, however, to look after his health, and in taking open air exercises to visit the beautiful scenery around Edinburgh. He has also been present at the inspection of the Midlothian Yeomanry Cavalry. The admiral of a Dutch squadron which put into the Futft of Forth learning the Prince was at Frolyrood called upon him. The Scotsman understands that the Duke of Buccleuch is to be nominated against Lord Brougham for the honorary office of Chancellor of the Edinburgh University created by the Universities (Scotland) Act of 1858, and the election to which takes place early in October. The appointment is in the hands of the University Council, which forms a constituency of several hundred members, graduates of the University.
