OUR WEEKLY BUDGET .
THE Quarterly Communication of Grand Lodge was held on Wednesday , Lord Leigh , Prov . G . M . Warwickshire , presiding , in the absence of His Royal Highness the Grand Master . There was a numerous attendance of members . The finances of Grand Lodge were shown to be
in a highly satisfactory condition . A long debate then followed as to the most suitable p lan for commemorating the Grand Master ' s visit to India and his safe return home , it being ultimately resolved that a committee be appointed to consider the manner in which this feeling of
thankfulness at so auspicious an event should be perpetuated , and to report their views at the next Communication of Grand Lodge . Full particulars of the debate are given elsewhere . The Queen is enjoying a brief period of comparative retirement at Balmoral . On Tuesday she gave a ball to
the servants , tenants , and gillies on the Balmoral andAbergeldie estates , being herself present , with the Princess Beatrice , and attended by the ladies and gentlemen of her household . On Tuesday evening the King of the Belgians ,
who is over in England on a visit , left London for the North for the purpose of paying a visit to Her Majesty , Balmoral being reached on the following afternoon . Everywhere , along the route , the King met with a most respectful reception .
The King and Queen of Hanover with their family have been now some time in London , and seem thoroughly to be enjoying their visit to this country . The King is staying at Claridge ' s Hotel , and visits are daily interchanged between the illustrious visitors and the members of our
own Royal Family as well as the leading aristocracy . The Duke de Nemours and the Comte de Paris have also been staying at the same hotel , but returned this week to Paris . The object of their visit has been to arrange for the
conveyance to France of the remains of those members of the Orleans family , including the ex-King Louis Philippe and his Consort , who died in exile in England , the French President ' s authorisation having been previously obtained .
The Prince and Princess of Wales left London on
Monday for Sandnngham , reaching their Norfolk residence in the afternoon of that day . They had previously received the visits of the Kings of Hanover and of the Belgians . The Prince had been somewhat of an invalid for a brief time , being confined to the house by the swelling of the
veins in his legs , but the fact of his being able to undertake the journey is a good omen . His Royal Highness and his brothers of Edinburgh and Connaught have been appointed personal aides-de-camp to Her Majesty . The Duke of Connaught is about to pay a visit of a few -weeks
to Liverpool , where he is expected to arrive on Friday next , and where he will stay till the 22 nd July . The Town Council have accordingly resolved to place Newsham House , -which , is -usually occupied by the judges -when on circuit , at His Royal Highness ' s disposal .
The Whitsuntide holidays are at an end . Monday was a most unfortunate day as regards the weather , but though this may have damped the ardour of many intending holiday-makers , every place of public amusement was thronged with visitors . The Alexandra Palace , with a
marvellously extensive programme , was patronised by , it is said , some fifty thousand people , while even a larger number were present at the Crystal Palace . As regards the indoor part of the programme , which is always worthy of such occasions , these of course are the places for holiday
folk to frequent , but the splendour of the outdoor shows was utterly spoiled by the rain . Tuesday was not much better , though the unkind attentions of Jupiter Pluvius were neither so urgent nor so continuous . On Wednesday ,
when the finances were lower , and people ' s enthusiasm was in a great measure washed out of them , the sun shone bravely , and has been more or less considerate ever since . One place of resort more than usual was available for pleasure-hunters . Tho Agricultural Hall is within easy
