The Parliament Buildings, Quebec, the official residence of the Prince of Wales during his stay in Quebec, [Canada], 1860. 'The Prince of Wales [future King Edward VII], according to the programme issued of his Royal Highness's movements, was to arrive at Quebec on the 18th inst., taking up his official abode at the Parliament Buildings, where he would receive deputations and hold levees during his stay at Quebec. The Parliament Houses provided accommodation for thirty, exclusive of servants. Two separate dining-rooms, one capable of dining twenty-five, and the other fifty persons, were prepared.
