MINOR CONVENTIONS. this roi.Es.

After attending mass in tho Chapel of St. StnniulaMs Kotaka Cluireli, on JN’oblo street, the delegates repaired to Bhcrman'H Hall, near Bradley utreot, r.nd at t) o’clock were called to order hy tho Rev. Father Theodore Gieryok. An election of officers then took place, romilliug tu the choice of llio Rev. Father Joseph Miwlol ewicz us Chairman, John Bazwisky as Secretary, and tho Rev. FiUl.'er Moilitor, of Chicago, as As sistant Secretary. Tho Chairman then addressed the delegates in tho Polish lungiia/50. 110 said that the object of the Convention wits to bring togathcr tho seve ral Polish fleUlomculs in this country so that they might take filops for their general welfare. Tliolr number wai not inconsiderable,—probably 200,000 in all; io Chicago alone about 7,ooo,—and it was lo bcregnTlcd that no concerted action had heretofore been taken to elevate their nationality into its logilinmto position among tho peoples of thin great country. To remedy such a urate of affairs tho Convention was instituted, and ho trusted (hat it would not fail of its object. Boles thus far had merged, or rather been swallowed up or absorbed, by tho more powerful nationalities,—tho Gormans and Irish,—and they were regarded as nonontitiealin a political souse. It should not bo so, for Boles had a national history of which thoy felt proud. A want of knowledge of tho En glish language hud operated against them boro very much. ■ There hud not boon any collegiate establishments of any importance conducted tmder a Polish-Englinh management lo meet tho wont. Tli® chief purpose therefore of tho Con vention will bo to cloviso means for tbo erection of a college at a central point in (bo United States, and to establish a central Colonization Society. By those agencies they might bopo to create in tho munis of our young people a lovo aod venera tion for Iho laml of' thoir forefathers, give thorn a knowledge of tbojjreat land thoy dwelt in, ami so elevate them intellectually and morally that m duo time thoy would bo abloto take thoir rightful position anting Iho other natimnditjoa. Tho address was received with enthusiasm. Committees on Credentials r.ud on Arrange ments wero then appointed, sod tho Convention adjourned until JJ o’clock.

Such ataloraento .in thoao being mode and widely believed, It is well tboysbould bo definite ly contradicted and tbo true position of tbo Prince’s affairs mado known. “ Tho income of tho Prince of Wales is de rived from tho annual grant made under tho authority of Parliament ami from tho revenues of tho Duchy of Cornwall. These have hitherto miAicod for iho maintenance of the Prince's es tablishment, notwithstanding tho expenses which ho lias incurred by having, from tbo time ho came of ago. largely represented tbo sover eignty of England. At tbo present time the unpaid claims before hia Koyal Highness's Comptroller amount ro llttJo move than a third of tho X’rmco’s annual income, and, with tbo ex ception of one or two accounts unsettled from peculiar circumstances, thoro is at present. no hill on tho list of more /.ban one year’s standing. Tho payments aro periodically audited by Kir William Auderson. They aro regulated by tho balances in tho banker's hands, and tho balances on this Ist of October will bo more than sufA uiont to meet every claim on the Princo. This being the case, ik need not bo said that tho ru mors of serious debt and embarrassment havo no substantial basis. They havo arisen from misapprehension of tho real facts, and thoao it mav bo aa well to state.” After alluding to tho numerous expenses in separable from tho Princo of Wales’,position, the nrticlo continues: «• 'j.'o moot all those calls, the Princo bos an in come which, at tho time of its settlement, was estimated at XIOd,OOO Hr year. Tho nearly-fixed income of tho Princo of wales caunot enter into competition with tho enormous wealth possessed by t£io highest section of English society. Nor is it, indeed, for a moment to bo desired that tho provision assigned by Parliament for tho Prince’s uminionauco in ft manner befitting bis position rhould bo measured by anyoxtravagnut standard of luxurious expenditure. Put, taking into ac count tho inevitable outgoings of very largo in comes when associated with high rank and re sponsibility, wo are not surprised to loiirn that tho Prince’s expenditure Ims exceeded his in come. The excess, however, has been provid ed from funds which legitimately belong to the Princo of Wales, aud aro. in fact, his private property. During his minority tho revenues derived from tho Duchy of Cornwall, carefully administered under tho supervision of tho lato Prince Consort, wore allowed to accumu late. Largo sums out of this fund were laid out on tho purchase of a pleasant but not profitable demesne, and on making those alterations and improvements which arc commonly incidental to the purchase of an estate. Nevertheless, there iitili remains enough from tho Duchy of Corn wall accumulations to cover tho yearly deficit of tho Prince's establishment. Tho trustees sell nut stock to the amount required to pay tho claims on tho establishment, which is thus kept clear of debt, except in respect of such recent accounts as those wo have already mentioned. From £’lo,ooo to £20,000 has boon annually re quired for this put pose. Tho Pnnco has thus hitherto relied on his own moans, aud though, no doubt, it is a misfortune to bo living on capital, still this is a very different stale of things from that which tho popular rumors represent.” .1,603 2 MARRIAGES.
