Holden says this sarcastically to mock Ackley, as he actually dislikes him. By calling him a prince, gentleman, and scholar, he is highlighting the stark contrast between Ackley's behavior and these respected titles. It emphasizes Holden's disdain and frustration with Ackley's annoying personality.
