at the *ate, accompanied by Lord and Lady Glen 

 iy«», and entering their carriage at half-ptat 9 o'clock, 

 i^rofe slowly off; but the Highland piperi striking up 

 the Priuce's salute, the carriage was, by order of H 

 Majeety, itopped till the salute was finished, when both 

 btwing repeatedly to the Highlanders, who in imposing 

 array lined one side of the road, they again drove off. 

 Waving crossed the bridge opposite the castle, they 

 were received by a large assemblage of people who 

 aad been admitted into the grounds, and who, as 

 »ke Queen passed on, respectfully uncovered — their 

 OMMrtesy being returned both by Her Majesty and the 

 Ffcince. The carriage then drove more rapidly on, and 

 the whole body of Highlanders burst into a shout of 

 aaefamation, which was reiterated and continued for 

 taoae time after Her Majesty had disappeared, a Royal 

 afttute being also fired from an adjoining height. At the 

 ••lev gate, also, a large company was in waiting, and 

 aeeeived Her Majesty with every demonstration of 

 fe?attv. Lord Glenlyon rode alongside the Royal car- 

 wage, and two carriages followed ; in one of which was 

 »* Princess Royal, with Lady Canning and Mulemoi- 

 a*We (harrier ; and in another Lord Aberdeen, Lord C. 

 WeHesIey. and Sir E. Bowater. The other members of 

 theaaire had left in the morning. No event of any im- 

 portance occurred until the cavalcade arrived at Dnn- 

 fcefcr, when Her Majesty alighted and remained for a 



alert period. The inhabitant! bad been anxious to erect 



»teinmphat arch, but Lord Glenlyon intimated to them 

 tfcot any such display would be distasteful to Her 

 Majesty, and the idea was abandoned. On arriving at 

 Gepar Angus, the Royal cavalcade drove through three 

 phal arches, which evinced considerable taste in 

 »r construction. The roadside was festooned, and the 

 ants had assembled in large numbers to greet the 

 4fe**»as she passed once more amongst them. Two 

 farther on towards Dundee, the Royal cavalcade 

 met by Lord Duncan, attired in the uniform of 

 B&yal Archers. A'tcr a brief but courteous greet- 

 feom Her Majesty his lordship galloped on before 

 ■Majesty's carriage, Lord Glenlyon and the Hon.Capt. 

 ' <>g on either side of the carriage. One of the 

 iKons contrived to break his airrup- leather in going 

 «■»» t&e acclivity near Camperdown Gate. Lord Duncan 

 a%m Minted in an instant, and before Her Majesty was 

 atfe-to inquire into the nature of the accident his Lord- 

 afc^fcad buckled one of his stirrup-leathers to the posti- 

 jJanTa aadd'e, and, resuming his station in front of the 

 mma* carnage, galloped on to Dundee without any 

 r hindrance. At Camperdown, his Lordship's son, 

 m the Highland dress, was stationed at the road-

been about a mile in the rear. Here the latter vessel took 

 the lead, piloting the route of the Royal yacht to Woolwich. 

 Several other steamers met the squadron in Gravesend 

 Reach, and saluted Her Majesty, their respective crews 

 cheering the Royal party, who had been on deck from 

 an early hour. The squadron arrived off Gravesend 

 soon after 12, and were received with a Royal salute 

 from Tilbury Fort. Salutes were also fired from batteries 

 stationed at the various pier-heads ; and the progress of 

 the Royal yacht was observed by many thousand spec- 

 tators, who thronged every available point along the 

 shore from whence a glimpse could be obtained. The 

 run from Gravesend to Woolwich occupied about an 

 hour and a half, the Royal yacht coming to her moorings 

 off the Tower slips precisely at 10 minutes to 2. The 

 Lords of the Admiralty were in attendance, and landed 

 Her Majesty in their barge, amidst the usual salutes 

 from the batteries, and loud cheers from the company 

 assembled. Her Majesty and the suite immediately 

 proceeded in the Royal carriages to the Paddington 

 terminus of the Great Western Railway, and arrived at 

 Windsor Castle at 4 o'clock, within 48* hours after leav- 

 ing Dundee. We rejoice to add that both Her Majesty 

 and the Prince appeared in excellent health and spirits. 



The Royal Family and Court— The Prince of 

 Wales, Prince Alfred, and the Princess Alice, accom- 

 panied by the Dowager Lady Lyttelton, and attended by 

 Lieut-Col, the Hon. C. Grey, arrived at Windsor Castle 

 on Wednesday from the Pavilion at Brighton. The 

 Duchess of Kent returned to Frogmore on the same day 

 from Witley Court, the residence of the Queen Dowager. 

 The Duke of Cambridge and the Grand Duke of Meck- 

 lenburgh Strelitz arrived in Edinburgh on Monday on 

 their way to Ethal House, the seat of Lord F. Fitz- 

 clarence. Their Royal Highnesses last week visited 

 Taymouth Castle, the seat of the Marquis of Breadal- 

 bane, Inverary Castle, the seat of the Duke of Argyll, 

 and Scone Palace, the seat of Lord Mansfield. Viscount 

 Sydney has succeeded Viscount Hawarden as the Lord 

 in Waiting on the Queen, the Hon. Nelson Hood has 

 succeeded R. Orrasby Gore as the Groom in Waiting. 

 Major-General Wemyss has succeeded Lord C. Wel- 

 lesley as Equerry in Waiting on the Queen, and Lieut.- 

 Col. Bouverie has succeeded Major-General Sir E. 

 Bowater as Equerry in Waiting on Prince Albert. 



Death of the Duke of Grafton.— We have to record 

 the death of his Grace the Duke of Grafton, which took 

 place on the 28th ult., at his seat, Euston Hall, Suffolk. 

 The Noble Duke was in his 85th year, having been born 

 in 17G0. He married, in 1/84, Lady C. M. Walde- 

 grave, who died in 1808, and succeeded his father in 

 1811. His Grace had eleven children, six of whom are still 

 alive. He is succeeded in his title and estates by his 

 eldest son, the Earl of Euston, now Duke of Grafton, 

 who was born in 1790. 



Count Nesselrode arrived in town at a late hour on 

 Monday night, accompanied by his son, Count Dmitry 

 Nesselrode. The Count left Edinburgh on Sunday after- 

 noon, travelling post to Newcastle, and thence by rail to 

 London. During the few days which have elapsed since 

 Count Nesselrode left Chatsworth, he has made an ex- 

 tended tour through the most beautiful districts of Scot- 

 land. The Count left town yesterday for Hamburgh, en 

 route for St. Petersburgh. Count Dmitry Nesselrode 

 will prolong his stay in this country until about the 

 middle of the present month. 



The Peerage.— The obstructions hitherto in the way 

 of Colonel Tynte's claim to the Wharton Peerage, are 

 understood to be so far removed, that it is expected he 

 will be called to the Upper House by the title of Baron 

 Wharton in a few months.

 long absence in the country.-The Prince de Joiuville 

 has arrived unexpectedly at Havre, and was expected to 

 proceed at once to the Chateau d'Eu, where the Prince?, 

 is staying, having avoided Toulon, where a K rand re 

 ception was prepared for him bv the authorities It 

 was rumoured that his Royal Highness was displeased 

 with the terms of the treaty with Morocco, and the 

 Opposition papers continue to d cla-e that the Prince 

 before the arrival of the Duke of Glucksbere hid 

 made an arrangement with the Pacha of Lai-ache 

 by which the Emperor of Morocco was to pay twelve 

 million francs to France, in monthly instalments u 

 indemnity for the expenses of the war ; with the stipula- 

 tion that if Abd-el-Kader should be delivered up before 

 the payment of the whole of the amount, the remainder 

 should not be insisted upon. These conditions, y8 the 

 Steele, had actually been sent off to the Emperor, whose 

 acceptance of them the Pacha considered himself in a 

 position to guarantee, when the Due de Glucksberg and 

 M. de Nion, or rather Mr. Bulwer, substituted for them 

 the treaty announced in Paris by the cannon of the 

 Invalides. The King had written an autograph letter to 

 the Prince de Joinville congratu'ating the officers and 

 seamen of the fleet upon their recent victories, and the 

 Prince had ordered it to be posted up on board all the 

 vessels of the squadron. " The battle of Isly," says the 

 Alye'rie, " was fought on the 14th, the bombardment of 

 Mogador took place on the 15th, and it was in the night 

 of the 14th, between those two victories, that Princess de 

 Joinville was delivered of a daughter. Marshal Bugeaud, 

 struck with this coincidence in the dates, asked the 

 Prince, in the name of the army of Algeria, to add the 

 name 'Victoria* to those already given to the new- born 

 infant. The squadron has expressed the same wish. 

 The King will, no doubt, consent to uuite the recollection 

 ofthebirth of his grand-daughter with the double souvenir 

 of Isly and Mogador." — The preparations for the King's 

 voyage to England are going on with great activity. The 

 Elan steamer has arrived at Havre, from Cherbourg, 

 where it is to take on board the cases containing crystal 

 and Sevres china which the King is to present to Queen 

 Victoria. The squadron is in readiness, and after a trial 

 trip to Dieppe, with Admiral La Susse on board, has 

 returned to Cherbourg. The King left Paris for Eu 

 on Wednesday, and is expected to embark atTreport for 

 Portsmouth on Monday next. M. Guizot has been se- 

 riously indisposed for the last week, but it is hoped that 

 he will be well enough to undertake the journey 

 to England. — Due notice is taken by the Oppo- 

 sition prints of the meeting held at Exeter-hall, on 

 Wednesday week, by the friends of the London Mission- 

 ary Society; but their comments upon the speeches 

 which referred to the conduct of France towards the 

 Queen of Tahiti do not present any features that would 

 interest our readers.— The French Government is making 

 great improvements in the Post-office. Since the first 

 of last month letters of value or importance can be 

 placed under the more immediate care of the Post-office 

 functionaries, with the privilege of paying the postage 

 before-hand or not as may be convenient. The towns 

 on the line of the Rouen and Orleans railway have two, 

 and in some places three, deliveries of letters a day. 

 The malle poste goes from Paris to Geneva in 34 hours, 

 and with all this, by a careful economy, the expenses 

 have been reduced more than 320,000f. within the 

 last six months, without impairing the efficiency of

General Post-office in Paris, some very salutary changes 

 have also been made to insure regular attendance and 

 despatch— General Bustamente, the President of the 

 Mexican republic before General Santa Anna, has 

 arrived in Paris.— The French Government is about to 

 erect a statue of Colbert at Rheims, his native city. 



Spain —We have accounts from Madrid to the A>u 

 ult. It seems from the returns of the provincial elec- 

 tions that the Ministerial majority in the Cortes will be 

 very considerable. It was calculated that the number 

 of Opposition members in the Chamber of Deputies 

 would not amount to more than six— three Larlis s 

 or Absolutists, and three Progress or Exai- 

 tado<. The candidate who would probably be elected 

 president was M. de Paula Castro-y-Orozco, the 

 Minister of Justice in the Ofalia Administration, and 

 the intimate friend of General Narvaez. The other can- 

 didates were Messrs. Isturitz and Burgos. Those for 

 the Presidency of the Senate were the Mar-uis de Mira- 

 flores and Count de Fontana. The papers contradict 

 the report of the young Queen's illness, which bad 

 found its way into the Paris journals. Her Majesty and 

 her sister were seen riding out every day, and the inha- 

 bitants of Madrid could judge with their own eyes of the 

 inaccuracy of the statement. It was reported that 

 General Espartero intended to publish a manifesto to
