Our Weekly Budget

OUR WEEKLY BUDGET

THE Court is still in Scotland , bnt there was a move southward on Wednesday , when the Queen and the Princess Beatrice left Balmoral for Loch Maree , where it is proposed to make a stay of about a week . The hotel has been engaged as Her Majesty's residence . The visit is

strictly private , and consequently , when the Royal party drove to Ballater Station , there was no guard of honour in attendance , it having been signified to the authorities that the presence of the soldiers would not be required . At Achnasheen , where the railway portion of the journey

came to an end , the inhabitants of the district turned out en masse , and gave the Queen a right hearty welcome , after the manner of Hig hlanders . The rest of the distance was done by posting . Unfortunately , the weather was very unsettledand rain fell shortly after starting , and again in the

, evening . On Wednesday next , the Princess Louise and the Marquis of Lome will visit Isell Hall , as the guests of Mr . and Mrs . Wyndham . The following day , Her Royal Highneas will go by train to Carlisle , for the purpose of opening

a bazaar in aid of the Infirmary . The visitors will remain at the Hall till Monday , and will then go to Muncaster Castle , where they will be the guests of Lord and Lady Muncaster . In both cases , a distinguished party has been invited to meet the Princess and her husband . Prince

Leopold is the guest of the Earl and Countess of Breadalbane , and is expected to remain with them for a fortnight . Great preparations are being made for His Royal Highness ' s reception , and it is expected he will be presented

with an address by the municipal authorities of Aberfeldy . The Prince of Wales will be the guest of Sir George Wombwell , Bart ., at Newburgh Park , which he will reach on Monday , and where he will have some shooting . The Princess of Wales is still at Osborne , and in the absence of

any news to the contrary , we presume her eldest son , Prince Albert Victor , is progressing favourably towards a complete recovery of his strength . A meeting of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution was held on Thursday last , at John-street , Adelp hi . Mr . George

Lyall presided . Rewards to the amount of £ 150 were voted to the crews of different lifeboats for services they had rendered during the past month , while several rewards were likewise given to the crews of shore boats for having saved life from wrecks on the coast . The magnificent

contribution of - £ 2 , 000 from the Countess de Morella , in memory of her late husband Don Ramon Cabrera , was acknowledged . This will be used for the building and

permanent endowment of a lifeboat to be named the Ramon Cabrera . The Institution ' s instructions for the restora * tion of persons apparently drowned have been translated into Chinese by Dr . M'Gowan of Shanghae .

Up to Wednesday evening the sum of -6145 , 000 had been received by the Mansion House Relief Fund of this £ 115 , 000 had already been remitted to Madras . Among the later contributions are £ 500 ( further ) from Exeter , £ 300 from Dover , £ 500 from Belfast , £ 40 from Rossall

School , £ 350 from Harrogate . The Mayor of Maidstone has invited subscriptions from his fellow-townsmen , and has already been successful to the extent of £ 500 . At Great Yarmouth a subscription has been inaugurated ,

while at Dundee , over £ 1 , 000 was collected in the Town Hall , on the occasion of the meeting called by tho Provost for the purpose of considering what steps should be taken towards alleviating the distress of our Indian fellow subjects . The Provost himself headed the list with £ 100 .

Thursday was the day fixed for the opening of the New Town Hall at Manchester . Wo shall give particulars next week , but every preparation had been made to give

eclat to the occasion . The mayor was the central personage , bufc all the notabilities of Manchester , and many from a distance , were present , while the line of route followed by the processionwas densely thronged by citizens , all

inte-, rested in the success of the day ' s proceedings . At foui ,
