OUR WEEKLY BUDGET .
ON Sunday H . R . H . the Prince of "Wales paid a visit to the Queen at Balmoral , where he remained to luncheon , lie afterwards drove to Invercanld House , on a visit to Col . Farquharson , and the party on Monday and Tuesday enjoyed some sport among the deer of the neighbouring forest . In the evening of the latter day His Royal
Highness again visited Balmoral Castle , and dined with the Queen . H . R . H . the Princess of Wales left Calais on Tuesday , accompanied by her three daughters , and arrived in London the same evening . The following day the Royal
party left for Abergeldie Castle . H . R . H . Prince Frederick William of Prussia arrived , on a visit to Her Majesty tho Queen , on Monday , and , together with the Duke of Connaught , has devoted a part of his time to deer-stalking .
On Tuesday particulars were published in London of the failure of the English Mission to Cabul . It appears that our Envoy was stopped at the Khyber Pass , and , notwithstanding his protests , and his having warned the Afghan general in command there that the act would be regarded
as the act of Shere AH himself , he was obliged to return to Jumrood , the mission subsequently withdrawing to Peshawur . A special meeting of the "Viceroy ' s Council was at once summoned . General Roberts , the commandant of the frontier forces , has started for Peshawur with secret
orders , and large bodies of troops are concentrating on the frontier . It seems all but certain that an occupation of Afghanistan Avill ensue , as there is little chance of an apology being sent for the affront thus offered to the English nation .
At the Woolwich inquest on Friday an engineer was examined as to the stnte of the engines of the Princess Alice at the time of the collision so far as could be judged from their present condition , and some other witnesses having been brought forward , the inquiry was adjourned until
Wednesday , when further witnesses were examined on behalf of the London Steamboat Company . Their case being closed , the captain of the Bywell Castle was called , and gave evidence as to the capabilities and course of his vessel . His examination was continued on Thursday , and
important evidence given . He stated that his vessel was not driven astern until fifteen minutes after the accident , and that the Princess Alice was cut in two pieces by the collision . After cross-examination of this witness , the Court was adjourned . The expense incurred by the Wool *
wich parish officials in connection with the work arising from this disaster is reckoned at upwards of £ 1200 , and steps are being taken to obtain repayment of this amount from the county magistrates . The work of pumping ont the water from the Abercarn
Colliery was commenced on Friday , but was impeded on Saturday in consequence of the pumps becoming choked with earth . Arrangements were then made to raise tbe water in tanks by means of the lifting apparatus , and now operations are being successfully carried on . Great
distress is being felt in the district , and earnest appeals are being made for relief . On Friday , £ 1 , 000 was voted to the fund by the Monmouthshire and South Wales Collieries Association , while in various parts of the country
subscription lists are being actively circulated , with , we hope , satisfactory results . Up to the present time £ 16 , 000 has been received at the Mansion House on behalf of tho sufferers , which sum includes an amount of 50 guineas from H . R . H . Ihe Prince of Wales .
The up Scotch express of the Midland Railway Company 3 ame into collision with a goods train at Holbeck Junction , near Leeds , on Wednesday morning . Great damage was done to the rolling stock , one engine and eight empty irucks being forced off the line , thereby destroying a bridge . One of the tracks feJI into the roadway beneath .
