(BY PBIVATE WIRE.) London, Fhiday Night. Farewell to the Duke. It seems only the other day that we gathered at Victoria to see the Duke of Con-naught set out for South Africa, and here we were this morning bidding him farewell on another high mission as he departed for Canada. The look of things at Euston had a cheerful informality. The crowd in the sunny courtyard of tho station was small, but it raised a good cheer when the Royal landau came along with the lackeys in fawn cloaks high on the seat.

Euston is not so used to Royal comings and goings as Victoria or as Waterloo, where they have a special platform for kings.
