RECOGNITION OF WALES.
London, June 20. At a meeting of the Committee of Peers and members of the House of Commons who are desirous of securing the heraldic recognition of Wales, Sir W, V. Harcourt nssured the members that Sir Francis Knollys, private secretary to the King, had convinced him that though do alteration in the Royal Arms would bo permitted, yet something might possibly be done to meet the wishes of the people of Wales in connection with the arms of the Prince of Wales when that title was Jrevised. The committee resolved to petition the King that the recognition of the Principality should be made in the arms of the Prince of Wales. The " Times " says that the clear sympathies of the King are with the desire of the Principality of Wales, and that the advancement of the Duke of Cornwall and York to the dignity of Prince of Wales is not likely to be long delayed.
