Ia consequence of a slight illness, the Prince did not go to charch last evenirg. Mr. Adams, the cousin of John Quincy Adams, and ‘whose brother. in-law is an uocle of Lord Lyons, aud set- tied permanently in this country, had a long private in- terview with the royal party | ‘They aid they were delighted with the country, the treatment and the Liberty given to them to do as they pleased. ‘The party left Cincinnati in a special train, at six o'clock in the morning. The day was rainy, foggy and ‘wopieasant, and few collected to see them of. ‘The train stopped five and ten minutes at towns along the route, anu, ia response to the calls of the crowd, the Prince came out on the platform and bowed. At every station a crowd collected, surrounding the ‘er and crying “ Fotch him out,” cheering at the same me loudly. At some places the band played “ God Save ‘tho Queen,” at others there were bonfires, At Strasburg church bells were rung. At Alliance the royal party ‘waited until the regular train went thirty miles aheat, to ‘evoid accident. The same enthusiasm was manifested everywhere along both routes from Cincionat', and seve" ral bogus princes turned up in the cars. ‘The Priace, taking the Crestiine road, arrived at Pitts- burg at nine o’clook in the evening. He left the cars at Alleghany City to avoid the crowd, and crossed the bridge fa & carriage. In spite of this precaution, there were bundreds of people at the depot. Amid the music of Dands, the crowd followed the carriage to the Monongahe- 4s House, where handreds of persons were piled oa the stairs and tables to get a sight at the Prince. Preventea, Oct, 2, 1860, Mayor Wilson, the Committee and the Common Coun. ‘et! went in a special car to Alliance to receive the Prince. ‘They had an interview with him,and wore very kindy Yeootved. The Prince presented a gold pencil to Saper- fatendent Bradley. Upon their arrival they were re- cetved by an immense crowd. By the light of the loco. ‘Bi the samo time wo are proud to embrace and as follow citizens many from the broad fields of classic of cordiality and kindness, and trusting that the further journey ing? Of your lordship and party through our coun: ary may be attended with personal safety and agreeable Teminiecences of our land aud nation, allow me once more & extend to your lordship « most hearty and sin | core weicome. ‘The bridge was lighted with five hundred torches. Upon reaching the hotel Judge Wilkins wished to read an othor address, but the Duke of Newcastle would pot per- Milt it ov account of the Prince’ fatigue. This morning the Judgo delivered bis speech, much abbreviated, and Lord ‘Lyons briey repiied on the part of the Prince. To quiet the immense throog gathered under the Prince's winjow early last night, the band played “God Save the Queen,” ‘which was cheered. As if jealous of this the crowd called for “Yankee Doodle," which was agnin and again repeat ed and as often cheered. ‘The Prince was last night treated to a fine serenade. A crowd of five thousand persons blocked up the street ia Troat of the hotel, who cheered repeatediy, and called for the Pricce ( come oat, but be did not make bis ap- pearance. ‘The rooma which be occupied at the Monongahela House were newly and richly repainted aod refur- Babed Early this morning two thousand persons cailected in froat of the hotel; crary old man, town character, mounted @ stoop opposite, and awoke the royal party by bis coby harangues, the crowd cheering bis compli- meatary allusion to the Prince. His Moyal Highness slept late, the carriages being twice went away before be was ready to go out. At last he made his appearance, aad was greeted by the cheers of the asscmbied multitads. Ratering bis carriage, be Grove through the principal strects to the depot. Tae demonstration was the most imposing which be bas received ia the Caited States. The Daqueene Guard, Preceded by «fine band, acted as the escort of Lonor, and the saite, Common Conact!, members of the preer, in carriages, followed in @ long procession Tur jowalks and streets were crowded with people. All the windows wore fall; the crowd of ladies waving tholr bacdkerchief and the men cheering cnthustasti cALly, made upa vory imposing display, which waa highly creditable to the city. It waa moch appreciated by the Prince. Indeed the whole royal party were very much pleased ‘with Pitteburg, which they say very much resembles Birmingham, ia {te factories, ite emoke, dirty streets fad brick houses, aa weil aa in the character of the peo- ple. This resemDiance was aided by the close, dull, fog- Gy Engiish weather which prevailed ‘The Prince pointed out to the Duke of Newcastle and Lord Lyons the featores of Pittsburg which most interest. @d Bim, @od was une cally a: mated and talkative during the drive.

Upon taking leave of their hosts the royal party thanked them for their kindness and hoepitality, and several presents were exchanged, the Prince giving Mr. Spencer « very hand- somely mounted Manton. The special train dashed over the road at lightning speed, making but three stoppages for wood and water. At every station the people assembled in large numbers, ‘Dut the train only slowed to ten miles 1 hour while passing, and the Prince did not leave his car to respond to the hearty cbeere of the assembled hundreds. A fow miles from Dwight the party threw up the car windows to witness that most magnificent spectacie, A PRATRIN ON FIRE. The short grase, unusually short this season, prevented the fire making much headway, but along the horizon the Jow fames advanced, in a regular line, puffing up clonda of smoke as if Gred from distant artillery.

Poth the Prince and the Dake replied in a few words, which by Bo possible effort of reporter's skill Gould be put into set form and phrase, and which simply expressed ‘thetr grati@catiob at heir reception, and at their having accepted the invitation to be present and see what an ae fair was. Their replies were merely convorsa- pal. 4 miniature levee was then heid, the Hon. Edward Bates, Mr Barret, the founder of the fair, Col. C.

AN ADVERTISING DODGK. One of our smart showmen in New York succeeded in rigging up an advertisement to insult the Japanese Princes during their visit to the metropolis, and the first insult to the Prince of Wales, intentional or uninten tlopal, came from the eame rage for advertising. Some over zealous vender of “sheep clothes,” who, even upon ao dey when business was gern suspended, and the whoie city turned out to do onor to ite guest, could not “sink the shop,” but must Attempt, as bad been beforo tried at Chicago, by publica- tions in the ne’ rs, to geta little more business by the aid of the little Prince. A wagon, fancifully decked and supplied liberally with Bashing advertisements, was eet after the carriages of the Prince apd suite, and foi- Jowed them most pertenaciously through whatever streets tbey drove, two burlesque footmen, in livery and top boots, distributing handbills as they went. This display was hiesed ali through the city, and it is probable that tho coterprising clothier, when he comes to settle up his proat acd loss account, wil! fied the balance in regard to this operation rather againat him. Betore returning to the hotel, the party walked through THR WESTERN GALLERY OF ART, which bas just been opened, and which contains some very fine original paintings. them were sove- ral landscapes of prairie scenery by Weimer, and both the Prince and Dr. Ackland examined them with very great attention, the latter comparing them with the sketches he bad made during his visit to Dwight: and the former solacing himself with see- ing in pictures what he was most anxious to ece in reali- ty, for the couple of days’ shooting at Dwight bas al: made the Prince more desirous to try bis baad at a buf- falo, and see the vast far Western country for himself. Returning to the hotel, the party were taken out upon the baloony, oppoeite which a great crowd bad collected to witness the . DISPLAY OF STEAM FIRE ENGLVES, ‘ This was to bave beenarrapged with theatrical emect. The fire bells were to ring, the engines to dasn up, the fires to be lighted, and the firemen to play away as if a real conflagration were in ‘The Gret of the programme was over before Prince arrived, however, ‘and as the street was barrow, the smoke from the eagines, exd the inguiferable odor from the cemest with which the stones were being laid in paxt of the street, made the Pripce’e position anything but agreeable. after a few mo ments’ stay, more fram courtesy than from interest in the dieplay, he returned to his room, whioh he did not ain quit duricg the evening, although’ many invitations to clubs, ‘es and concerts were presented to him. The Duke of Newcastle received a few of the members of the Council in the parlors, and held seve- 2a conferenoes ip regard to the future programme of the Prince's movements. ‘The suite displayed themselves in the parlors and at the Sesion, ereapetenn atiracticg marked attention and cou! .

St. Louis certainly deserves credit for the enter. tainment which was provided for the Prince, and for the enthusiasm with which be was everywhere received.

As intimated yesterday, the transfer of tho city | deposits from the Artisans’ Bank to the Park was | the last phase in the affairs of the former institu- tion. The withdrawal of the city deposits led to a run on the bank by its private depositors, and this | morning the doors were closed. Application has already been made for the appointment ofa receiver, who will probably be appointed to-morrow. Of | the ultimate fortune of the creditors andstockhold- ers of the bank we are not yet able to speak posi- tively. By the last weekly statement, published in | this morning’s Heraxp, the bank owed $1,066,413 | to its depositors, and held $95,114 in specie and | $1,373,918 in notes and obligations, besides the re- | maining balance of a capital of $600,009. Since | this statement was made, however, the bulk of the ' deposits has been removed to the Park and other | banks; it is likely that all the specie was withdrawn | yesterday, and it is understood thata portion of the paper under discount was taken by the Park | Bank as security for a loan made to the Artisans’ | on Saturday toenable itto go on. We learn that the | present liabilities of the Artisans’ are considerably under half a million. Against this the bank holds ' whatever paper and obligations it may still have on hand, and its capital. With regard to the latter | there appears to be some difference of opinion. The Clearing House Committee reported that the capital was impaired to the extent of one-third. We were assured by the leading director of the Artisans’ that the assets were better than the com- | mittee supposed, and that the capital was not ma-— terially impaired. Rumor now asserts that the | committee rather understated than overstated the | loss of capital, and that quite a large proportion of | the foans made by the bank will realize Little or nothing. capital can be so gravely impaired aa to render it necessary to assess the stockholders inorder to pay | the debts of the bank. In any event, it is hardly necessary to observe that neither billholders nor depositors can suffer any ultimate loss; the bills of the bank are amply secured by pledge of public stocks, and will probably be taken as usual at most of the banks; the stockholders, among whom are several rich men, are individually liable for every dollar of the bank's debts. e Much astontshment was expressed to-day at the failure of the Board of Directors of the Chicago and Rock Island Railroad Company to declare the usual fali dividend. The diyidend had been positively promised by most if not all of the directors; the earnings had been ade- quate; the stockholders counted upon it as amsatter of certainty. Yet the Board adjourned atone P.M. to-day, after having passed a re- solution pronouncing it ‘“‘inexpedient to declare apy dividend at the present time.” The statement of the business of the road for the past six months, upon which the above resolutioa was based, was as follows:— Earnings from Apri) 1 to Oct. 1, 1300...-...... Lees six months rent Peoria R. R...... $62,600 « interest $641,738 $177. 333 Net profit ‘274,623 Add previous surplus on baad A) Applicable to dividends Oct. 1, 1860. ++ $462,006 —or, in other words, rather more than 8 per ceat oa the capital stock. The Board will probably justify their caution by stating that the experience of the past warned them to be conservative in their action, and that they wished to accumulate a large surplus to be prepared for any emergency. The plea mast go for what it is worth; it will hardly satisfy stockholders who have been expecting income on their property, and who, till within a few days, have never hed a doubt of receiving at least three per cent. And, in view of the notorious fact that heavy sales of Rock island stock have been made within the past week, through brokers who are generally under- stood to act for directors of the Rock Island com- pany, these gentlemen must not feel surprised or aggrieved if they hear themselves accused of having administered the affairs of the company from the point of view of their private apecnia- tions. The resolution of the Board pronouncing it inexpedient to declare a dividend was not passed unanimously; we have reason to believe that at least one, and not the least eminent of the Board, voted and protested strongly against it.
