ON" Tuesday the long talked of visit to Glasgow of the Prince and Princess of Wales was paid . The multitudes that thronged the line of route from the St . Enoch Railway Station to St . George ' s-sqnarc were enormous , and so great was the pressure at certain places that , in spite of the eifovts of the police and occasional charges
of the cavalry escort , the barriers were broken , and the progress of the Royal party was slow and achieved with difficulty . The first event was a review of volunteers , who were present on the ground to the number of some 0 , 000 . The necessary preparations for the reception of their Royal
iiiglinesse . s had been made . A grand stand had been creeled , the central portion of which was specially devoted to the use of the Prince and Princess , and the members of their respective suites . The review consisted simpl y of a brief inspection , followed by the usual march past , but the
pressure ot tae crowd wao enormous , and cveti l ! i > . si ; simpli evolutions were with diilieuK y got through . The review over , the visitors were conducted to the silo of the New Post Office , where the Prince was to fulfil the main purpose

being ably supported b y Bro . Sir Michael Shaw Stewart as Grand Master Mason . Oti the conclusion of the ceremonial the Royal party returned to Blytheswood , Renfrewshire , the seat of Bro . Col . Arch . Campbell Campbell , Prov . G . M . Renfrewshire , whose guests tho Prince and Princess had
been over night . After dinner their Royal Hig hnesses and children left b y train for Loudon , reaching tho St . Pancras Station of the Midland Line punctually at tho appointed hour of 8 a . m . the following morning . They then drove to Marlborough House , ancl in the evening honoured the Promenade Concerts at Covent Garden Theatre with their
presence . On the 20 th of next month the Prince has arranged to visit Norwich , for tho purpose of installing Lord Suflield as P . G . M . of Norfolk , ancl likewise to lend his aid in enlarging the Norfolk and Norwich Hospital .
Onr brethren , the Governing Body of the Hospital , and tho Town Council , have already appointed committees , . and those will act together in the necessary arrangements to give a fitting reception to tho Prince , who , by residence at least , may consider himself a Norfolk man .
The Royal Circle at Balmoral has been increased by tho arrival of Prince Louis of Hesse , husband , of our Princess Alice . Prince Leopold , too , has returned to his mother ' s Highland residence . The Duke and Duchess of
Edinburgh have reached Malta , the former in his ship , the Sultan , tho latter on board the Russian frigate Svetland . The Duchess , for the present , will reside on the island , while her husband will rejoin the Mediterranean fleet in Bcsika Bay .
We hear a great deal less now about the Bulgarian atrocities . People arc beginning to recognise the danger of allowing common sense and the interests of our empire to bo subordinated to a momentary outburst of passion . What few meetings have recently taken place have been
mainly with a view to second the efforts of the ministry to secure peace and maintain the honour ancl dignity of the British . All kinds of alarming rumours are flying abont as to a proposed autumnal session of Parliament , orders to Lord Napier of Magdala to hold himself in readiness to
assume the command of a British Army , and so forth . These rumours arc contradicted , however , but the gravity of the situation is felt on all sides . The funds , especially on some Continental exchanges , are very seriously depressed—always a most ominous sign . Lastly , a Cabinet
Council was held on Thursday , at tho official residence of the Prime Minister , in Downing Street . Telegrams were despatched lato on Tuesday evening to the Duke of Richmond ancl Gordon at Gordon Castle , the Lord Chancellor
at Brechin , and Lord John Manners , the minister in attendance on the Queen at Balmoral , advising them of the proposed Council . This is the second meeting of the Cabinet within a little over a fortnig ht , and at a time of tho year when ministers are usually enjoying ' a well-earned
relaxation from their arduous duties . These rumours and
facts are hardly to be considered , favourable to the general peace of Europe . We are sorry to announce the resignation of the Viceroyship of Ireland by the Duke of Abercorn , who has
been one of the most popular Lords Lieutenant Avho has for many a year watched over the interests of the sister isle . His successor , the Duke of Marlborough , K . G ., has already been appointed and will shortly assume the reins of Government .
The Lord Mayor continues his course of hospitality . On Tuesday , he entertained the Masters and Wardens of the various Civic Guilds . The Guilds numbered some two
hundred and fifty , all the leading companies , such as the Grocers , the Drapers , the Goldsmiths , the Fishmongers , ancl the Merchant Taylors being represented . The usual toasts were proposed and appropriately responded to .
The Bristol Festival , the last of tho three great musical gatherings of tho year , commenced on Tuesday , under the most favourable auspices , and it is hoped that very substantial benefit will accrue to the Royal Infirmary ancl General Hospital , to which the proceeds of the Festival will
