Pity the Poor Price Consort!

FRINGE HENRY EXPLAINS

HIS POSITION.

Prince Henry of Mecklenbarg- Sohwerin, husband of Qaeen Wilhel mins, of Holland, has written a long letter complaining of the miseries oi his position as Prince Oonsoit. It was addressed to an old friend, a Lieuton* *nt in the Chasseurs of the Kind's bodyguard, of which Prince Henry w« lately an officer. It was, tloubd' jBB, not intended for publication, bat the friend considered it m eloquent, an expoiitlon of the Prince's position r.h«t he gave it oat 1 The New York Jour nal has published the letter for ih« edification of ita readers. We append w few extracts :—

The profession of Prince Consort h hardened with disagreeable features, of which the outside world has no cou eeption. To tell you the troth, I found my position very awkward trorn the start. Our marriage service says very impressively-—' He» shall be thy Lord s * bat for a Prince Consort to be that is a very difficult matter, particu larly when everybody in Palace, Go vernment, and public

When my wife worries herself half to death , imperil ling tho life oil oar child, I must stand by, mate, and appear unconcerned Seat I overstep the constitutional boundary, *Be thftnkfol that yon don'fe under stand these affairs of State, my dear.' That is the odd remark I hud to hear at breakfast dur ing the honeymoon, All day long antil late at night the Qaeen is re ceiving despatches, holding receptions, j Oonnoile.

At the same fcirae 1 can't enjoy myself qiletly after my own fashion, because everybody knows me and—watches m®. If Igo hunting lam accused of leaving my wife alone, and making ber 111 by my long absences.

Some papers say Wilhelmina paid millions for me; others that she refused to pay ; still others that she Ihoiaght Dae a farm worth a million of florins in Dobbin. They are all lies ! At first I expected something different from this. Ido not expect a paradise of ©ours©! for I always understood that Eden was wiped out after that affiir »f the apple. Still it's nob altogether bad, I have impressive surroundings and plenty of outward Bbow, It'a 'Your Royal Highness' here and *Your Royal Highness' there, bus official flattery, notwithstanding, I oennot regard iyyßelf otherwise than aa a piece oi' scenery, to be shifted at the stage manager's pleasure.

To be plain, A DOG'S LIFE IN A MOST LUXURIOUS KENNEL. In honesty I ought to confess to you, my dear Count, that I accepted the situation with a certain amount of sat isfaction. In the first place, it pleased me immensely to be pronounced the fittest among so many candidates 10 be the Qaeen's Oonsort. Think of the fame and the publicity. All the world and his wife had their eyes on The Hague and on me. I felt myself the ©leofe of the elect! To start wbII, I forced myself to be extremely coßspli jneiatarp.

I assure you, Ooont, MOST EXCELLENT RESOLUTIONS were packed with the things I brought from the Fatherland. One of them was to be reierved, to watch, to in vestigate popular opinion regarding my person. I also decided, beforehand, to avoid all military display. Don't be a sabretache, whatever you may be, T maid to myself. 1 also decided to re frain from showing too much piety, the people here don'fc like it—and no heim weh (home sickness), if you please, nor too many reminiscences of the Father land* In short, I intended to play the bourgeois Prince of the enlightened aort.

\ Tho vrarning cough is tho j fUb faithful sentinel. It tells of tlio approach of consump £sQfJr'?jh tion, which, has liillcd more i%i^^4l people than war and pesti §s/M|SVO lence combined.
