The Last Prince of Wales Scandal.

Apropos of a silly and scandalous story as to the imminence of a lawsuit in which the Prince of Wales is to appear as a correspondent with the reignng beauty of London, the Geneva Continent sagely observes: “It is well known that when a prince of the blood calls at a private house, etiquette requires that all other callers should be refused, unless the prince especially desires it otherwise. And this rule'ls a just one, calculated to secure him from being unduly hunted about and to insure his having a quiet conversation with those he has comek© see. Bat in the case of a handsome woman, whose husband chances to be out at the time

cf the call, this very rule of etiquette tends to create a highly unjust and cruel suspicion. This being so, I Jeem it to have been a matter or regret that in Lady Mordaunt’s case the Prince of Wales should have set a precedent, which, if it be not followed up in every other case that may arise, justly or unjustly, will certainly cause an undesirable inference to be drawn. There was no need of him to go to eourt (his private word of honor passed to Sir Charles would have been sufficient), and his doing so, and his having done so. may prove decidedly awkward in the ftiture.”
