All forts and batteries will salute the squadron con veying her Royal Highness. "2. Her Royal Highness will be received at Gravesend by a guard of honour from the Royal Marines, and a second from the Royal Engineers. THE ROYAL RECEPTION. Along the whole route which the procession of the Princess Alexandra is to traverse to-morrow -from Gravesend to Windsor —every town, village, hamlet, or railway station rings with busy prepa ration. In the long period of cur history there has probably never been an occasion which has called forth a more hearty spirit of enthusiasm and good will from all classes, from the highest to the lowest. Gravesend, where the first, and we believe, the most interesting part of this great progress commences, is utterly unrecognisable under the profusion of gar lands, arches, trophies, banners, and emblazonrnents which entwine and almost cover in the streets from the pier to the railway. The corporation of that town has set an example in this matter which great civic authorities in all parts of the kingdom would do well to imitate whenever somewhat similar fes tivities are required again. Instead of leaving every householder to do the best he could, or what he thought the best, and so securing a multitude of decorations repeating, contradicting, and destroying each other—differing without variety and costly without effect, the corporation determined, as on the occasion of the departure of the Princess Royal, to give the whole town into the hands of one pro fessional decorator, so as to secure not only good but harmonious de-igns. a proper blending of colours, and a unity of parts to the whole, which ' under no other circumstances could they hope to get. The result of this wise liberality is already showing itself in the streets of Gravesend in the graceful harmony and perfect good taste of all that has yet been done. Of course nothing will compare with the great display of London, with its millions of eager sight-seers and hundreds of clanging spires. No other demonstration can com pare with the City in these respects ; but in the beauty of form and colour and thoroughly artistic effect of the Gravesend decorations, that town will challenge comparison with any other part of the route. The Gravesend people feel not a little proud of the success they have thus a second time achieved, and they are well entitled to do so. The fame of their display has already brought in an in flux of visitors that even early this week caused a demand for beds almost equal to that for seats. The Gravesend station has been decorated with no little cost and a great deal of taste, and from this point to the Bricklayers' Arms there is not a station along the line which is not more or less effectively arrayed according to its importance, not one in which every available foot of ground has not been carefully measured out in seats and standings, not a house which comes at all near the line which is not to have its windows occupied, and some special festive decoration in honour of the day. The Bricklayers' Arms station, as we have before stated, will be the climax to the display along this first portion of the journey. From a conversation last night in the House of Commons, and also from arrangements mace yester day by the Royal Reception Committee at Guild hall, it appears now to have been settled that the city authorities will go no further than Temple-bar. They had wished from the first, in the exuberance of their loyalty, to continue their escort of the Princess through the metroplis ; but they have at last resolved to confine their rejoicing within their own jurisdiction. From Temple-bar to Paddington, therefore, the pageant will be of comparatively meagre proportions. So little desirous were the Westminster authorities to conduct the Princess throughout the remainder of her progress from Temple-bar, that they deputed some of their body to wait upon the Reception Committee, at Guildhall, and invite the Corporation to accompany the cavalcade to the end of the journey, preceded by the Westminster escort, alleging that they themselves had no paraphernalia or pageantry in comparison to :give suitable effe3t to their reception of her Royal Highness. The Com mittee fell in cheerfully with the proposal, and from that time it was understood that the two civic bodies would combine their forces at Temple-bar; but latterly, from expressions con tained in letters addressed to the Reception Com mittee both by Lord Sydney and Sir R. Mayne, the inference was irresistible that the Government were averse from the Corporation going beyond their jurisdiction. The Committee, therefore, at their meeting yesterday were mainly engaged in consider ing—not how the Lord Mayor and the Corporation should join with the Westminster escort, but how they should best perform the strategic movement of parting company with the Prince and Princess on reaching the western boundary of the city. With that view, and partly to catch another glimpLe of the Princess on their return, they contemplated a counter march from Temple-bar along Fleet-street; but there were obvious objections to such a course, and, acting on a suggestion from Sir R. Mayne, they have resolved, after resigning the escort to the Duke of Buccleuch, to leave Fleet-street by Chan cery-lane, and return by way of Holborn and New gate-street to Guildhall. A communication was received yesterday from the Duke of Cambridge by the Reception Committee at Guildhall offering to place at their disposal a squadron of Life Guards to assist in keeping open a clear line for the procession. It is hardly necessary to say the offer of hie Royal Highness was cordially accepted. All the preparations in the city in the way of decoration are far advanced, but those on London bridge have been much retarded by the enormous crowds of people who have flocked in that direction from day to day during the past week. With the view to ease the pressure upon that point, it is understood to be in contemplation to make South wark-bridge free of toll on the day of the entry and also on that of the marriage. The civic procession will be marshalled first of all in Guildhall-yard, and afterwards on London bridge—leaving Guildhall about 12 o'clock. It is said that it will extend over a mile of ground, or from the south end of London-bridge to about Bow Church, Cheapside. Yesterday the Lord Mayor took occasion from the bench of the Justice-room at the Mansion house to urge upon the citizens residing in the tine of the procession to see well to the parapets I and balconies of their houses being secured against pressure, with the view to prevent accidents. He also strongly recommended all persons who might congregate to witness the spectacle not to carry about with them articles of a hie, adding, by way of caution, that Alderman Finnic and himself had had before them that morning no fewer than six robberies from the person, mostly of valuable gold watches, committed in the public streets in broad • day, and he app ealed to the p u blic press to give effect to the warning. He likewise desired it to be made know that the number of applications he had received for seats in the gallery erected in front of the Mansion-house had far exceeded his power to comply with, or even to answer many of them, and he trusted the applicants who had received no reply world not attribute the omission to dis courtesy. At Windso r , b o th i n town and Castle , the prepa rations are everyw h ere b e i ng p u shed with an act ivit y that, are.gate a w n a d y both nearly completed, d look t in some c ases , rests neither night nor day. The arches over Wi ndsor-bridge an d that at Henry Nll's imposing, an d a l ong the whole g of the road a t e i ther side are f es toons of garlands , illumina tion, which have a pleasing effect. It is almost unneces sary to say that nearly every house along the line of procession through th e t own has an or transparency, or devi ce o f some k i n d . O n both sides of the gateway leading and lofty banks of seats have been er ecte d, an d a very large platform has been built on the su mm it of Park-hill, near St.. George's-gate, to w hi c h v i s i tors will be admitted by tickets both to-morrow and on Tuesd y. The preparations in the chapel, as far as they relate to the actual performance of the cere nlei handsomer b " Major-General Eyre and his staff will attend and make the necessary arrangements with the authorities at Gravesend. "4. Her Royal Highness will be received at the Brick layers' Arms Railway station by a Guard of Honour of the 3d Battalion Grenadier Guards, and the band of the 60th Rifles, at 1 o'clock p.m. "5. The Ist Battalion 60th Rifles will be drawn up out side the station. The temporary erections outside the chapel are also very nearly complete, and we are bound to say, for the credit of the decorators, they tell as little of their temporary character to the eye, internally or externally, as the Round Tower itself. The ap proach to this auxiliary palace closely adjoins the quaint old Horsehoe cloisters in which the choristers reside, and the whole_ot the temporary carriage-way has therefore been built of old carved wood, roofed in with little antique•shaped tiles, so as to resemble the Horseshoe cloisters, of which, in fact, it seems now a continuation. As with the outside, so with the interior. The reception hall, in which the in vited guests will be received and marshalled to their places in the nave or choir, comes out so grand and oid-looking that it seems aJmost Etinsult to one's common sense to 'be requirel to believe' that the grass was growing over the same spot only some three weeks ago. All the doorways are lofty, wide, and of carved oak ; the walls between the panelling are richly papered with an arras-like hanging; while the oak-looking ceiling, surrounded with a deep-moulded cornice bearing the shields of Knights of the Garter and others connected with chapel me mories, looks as if it had overlooked the banquets of the Tudors or Stuarts at the least. The rooms for the bride and bridegroom and their illustrious relatives open on to this hall. The bride's room is to be a perfect masterpiece of tasteful decoration. Its walls are covered with light rose-coloured silk, overhung with rich white lace, so that there is a sub dued rosy tint about the whole interior that is ex quisitely soft and pleasing. The ceiling is deco rated in a similar mann er, though with more elabo ration as regards the c ano p ied hangings of lace. The bridegroom's rooms are, of course, very much plainer, the colours being white and gold and mauve, which in the daytime lo ok exceedingly well. The decoration for the bridesmaids' rooms is scarcely enough advanced to ju stif y notice, but we be lieve it is to be blue and white, and in much the same style as the Royal bride's. Some of the outer rooms for the members of the Danish and English Royal families and distinguished visitors are also exceedingly rich, more especially that in which the Ambassadors will be received before entering the choir. On the bridal morning admission to the chapel will be given to officials actually connected with the ceremony at 10 o'clock, and to visitors having seats in the nave at 11. The first procession will leave the Castle precincts soon after half-past 11. The marriage ceremony will commence pre cisely at half-past 12, and will be performed by his Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury. Prince Christian of Denmark and the Dake et Cambridge give away the Royal bride. The Wane of Wales's uncle, the Duke of Saxe Coburg and Gotha, and his brother-in-law, the Crown Prince of Prussia, act as " best men" of the Prince on this occasion, and give away t. is Royal Highness. Prince Alfred was to have acted with his uncle at this happy event, bat his recent severe illness has since put aside every chance of his being able to attend. The service will occupy exactly 50 minutes. The members of the choir and of St. George's Chapels, the Chapel Royal, St. James's, with her Majesty's pri vate band, will form the choir, under Dr. Elvey. The length of time occupied by the 'ceremony is chiefly caused by the music that has to be per formed, and which is to be as follows : Triumphal March .. Beethoven. March, Athalie • . Mendelssohn. March in Joseph • • Handel. Chorale .• • • The nine() Consort. Grand Chant for 67th Psalm Halleleujah Chorus .. Beethoven. "6. An escort consisting of 1 field-officer, 1 captain, 2 subalterns, and 50 of the 2d Life Guards, and 1 captain, 2 subalterns, and 50 of the Royal Horse Guards, will be at the Bricklayers' Arms station at 1 o'clock p.m. "7.

Field state of the undermentioned corps of Volunteers in Hyde-park, March 7 : THE ROYAL WEDDING CAKE. Mr. Constant Pagnicz, the Queen's confectioner at Windsor Castle, has just completed the bride's cake. It stands 5 feet and a half high, and at the base two and a half broad. When these dimen sions are given, the public will be prepared to hear that the cake will weigh upwards of 1001 b. in weight. Mr. Pagnicz has in this instance adhered to the associations of the pine in which the royal wedding is to be celebrated, and, adopting a Gothic design, has produced an ornamental " elevation" (if we may use the term) which reminds us of one of our old English crosses of the time of the Ed wards, such as we still see standing at Waltham in w e presume the remembrance of Queen Eleanor. design is fall of those happy accidents into which an artist falls unawares, for ha I Mr. Pagnicz de signed to pay a compliment to the Prince of Wales, he could not have done 09 more effectually than in reviving the architectural associations of old Windsor Castle, or the forms of taste which pre vailed when the present Prince of Wales's great forerunner, the Black Prince, was married at indsor Castle. Having given our readers a general idea of the design adopted in modelling the Prince and Princess of Wales's bride cake, we may go on to say that the design is divided into four parts or stories. This basement is Octagonal, and within its arches two niches contain the arms of England and Denmark, with alternate arches occupied by figures of the Muses. Between the basement and the next tier of arches cornucopias hang over the parapet, and medallions of the prince and princess are hung from the bases of the pillars above. The shafts of these pillars are again hung with heraldic devices—the plumes of the prince, and other signi nificant badges ; while within, and occupying the centre, are figures emblematic of Hymen, sur rounded by Cupids, and other mythological at tendants upon the nuptial cerernoty. On reaching the next story, or (if we may borro w t erms f rom arc hit e cture) on attaining the clerestory, the octa gonalshape contracts into an hexagonal form, within the arches of which the god of love sports, sur rounded by a variety of complimentary emblems. Above this, the next story, quadrilateral, rises, which, being more contracted in size and approach ing the apex, is dealt with as a sort of base for a slender vase surmounting the whole structure ; out of which orange flowers depend. It is unneces sary to say that festoons of orange-flower wreathes hang from column to column, and sufficiently de- signate the purpose for which this elaborate piece of confectionery is designed. Simple-minded folk will be ready to ask, " How is the bride to cut the cake ?" We are happy to be able to answer the ques tion, and to explain bow this apparently Gordian problem is to be solved. The niches of the pediment, which contain the arms of England an dDenmark have been constructed as doors—and they open ! When opened her Royal Highness the Princess of Wales will be enabled to draw the knife across the cake, Iphigenia-like— ,l Slowly, and nothing more." Mr. Constant Pagnicz, as a true chef, has suc ceeded in producing a piece of confectionery eleva tion in sugar, and appropriate compounds known only to the high priests of his craft, which, viewed as a merely architectural construction, is infinitely ts pu rer" than the towers and spires of many structures that assert themselves as Gothic, and vie w ed as a "wedd in g cake, " in dimension, in con struction, and in elaboration, is —for we wish to pay him the best compliment we can—worthy of the occasion for which it has been elaborated.

'ERE =FORD MURDER. Mr. Justice Crompton, having gone through a careful analysis of the evidence heard yesterday, The jury, without hesitation, found the prisoner, Noah Austin, guilty of the murder of James Allen. The learned j odge passed sentence of death, hold ing out no hope of mercy. The prisoner, who was totally unmoved, left the bar without remark. THE QUIT.ic V. Vi7CHELLO. The prisoner was indicted for the wilful murder of John 8.0110wa ,- , at Benson, in the county of Oxford, on the 22 . d. 'if November last. Mr. Cripps appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Gough for the defence. It appeared from the evidence of Jas. Holloway that, deceased and his son went into a d pfuNobliev-ehase; some tehteirmee , and de- in Benson abo u t one o'clock eh t last, and found the prisoner sitting e om 22 drinking some beer. They conversed for ceased loft the public-house s oon after. At four o'clock he returned , t and o foundether for a short time , and deceased returne d to his mas ter's yard to sort pigs. f an hour the prisoner en- In about thre e- q uarters o tered the yard , commenced driving the pigs, mix ing those which had been separated by the de ceased, and, finally , without an y p rovocation, struck the deceased on the head with a cord he had in his hand, and threatened to kill him. The son of deceased, who was present, said, " Ralph, you shall not abuse my father ; I will go for a policeman," and accordingly left the yard for that purpose, but hearing that the prisoner had left he told the policeman that he need not trouble himself to come up. Afterwards he went into the cowhouse and found his mother attending his father, who was covered with blood, insensible,and speechless. Wit ness then leF,t !la eowhouse for assistance. After wards another sou of the deceased entered the cow house, and finding his father so ill, went for a light, but before he could obtain it was recalled by his mother's screams, and found the prisoner holding up his father by the hair of his head. The widow of the deceased proved that s h e had entered the eowhouse in consequence of something which she had heard, and found her husband in the condition described by th e first witness. Soon after the prisoner came int o thecowhonseandcoramen_ c .l2 cl a shaking the dee t ased, abusing him, and telling hi {` _ L~fs ____;-Gs..-- -51---°'/. to 76up and go home, deceased being. . unable to move. The prisoner pulled his hairy tlt - ew him lielently on the ground, and kicked biro ..17, 'th great force. She called for assistance , and her sun entered and ordered the prisoner to leave. When: witness first found her husband he was speechless t nd in sensible. In answer to a question by his lordship .have th witness acknowledged that de ceased mi g ht been trying to rouse her husband. Mr. Corsellis, a surgeon, residing at Benson, s'afd that on the 22d of November he was called in tc, attend deceased. He found hint a good deal in jured, and on the following m orning he died. Upon making a post mortem examination, witness discovered that the brain of deceased was seriously injured, that several of his ribs were broken, and hip lunvs much congested, but said those injuries might have been caused by a fall. His Lordship here stopped the case, and told the jury that there was no evidence to go before them of murder; that no one had seen the fatal blow struck, and they ought not to convict on a -pre surni.,tion. He advised them to ret urn a verdict' of acqutttal. The jury accordingly found the prisoner not guilty. WESTERN CIRCUIT.—WINCITESTER, March 5. CROWN COURT. (Before Mr. Sergeant Shee.) Lewis Francis was indicted for maliciously wounding George Dean, at Portsea, on the 19rh of December, with intent to murder him. There were other counts varying the intents. Me. Poulden and Mr. H. T. Cole were counsel for the prosecution. The prisoner asked the Court to order all the wit nesses out of court, and his desire was complied with. The prosecution was instituted by the Govern ment against the prisoner for a most violent and outrageous attack made by him upon George Dean, who was a warder in the convict prison at Portsea. The prisoner was a convict in that establishment under a sentence of penal servitude., At eight o'clock in the morning of the 29th of December Dean had charge of a gang of 14 con victs, among whom was the prisoner. Dean marched them to the junk store. The prisoner had been guilty of some offence against the discipline of the prison, and a short time before this day Dean had reported him, and the prisoner had been put upon bread and water diet for three days. On the morn ing of the 19th of December the men were at work in the store, and there was an armed guard outside the door of the store. The prisoner idled and talked, and prevented the other convicts from attending to their work, and he was reprimanded by Dean. This occurring a second time, Dean threatened to report the prisoner, upon which he struck him a most vio lent blow on the eye with his fist and knocked him down, The prisoner, having got Dean on the ground, began kicking him in the most savage manner with his boots. Dean called for help. The other con victs, who, for their work, had hatchets and knives in their hands, came round, but did not render Dean any assistance. This continued about 10 minutes, and then a warder named Hayward, not hearing the work going on, came into the store and saw the prisoner beating some one on the ground. Hayward was too much frightened to go near them, but he went out for assistance. Another warder, named Peters, then came in, and told the prisoner to get off the officer, and he asked the prisoner whether he was going to kill the officer. The prisoner said he was, and he would kill him also if he interfered. The prisoner got up, made a rush and seized a round of a ladder, and Dean having got up, the prisoner, with this stick, a most formidable weapon, struck Dean on the eye, and felled him to the ground, and then struck him several blows with the stick. Dean begged the prisoner to have mercy on him, but the prisoner continued his blows. O'Neil, the armed guard, then came in, and saw the prisoner lying upon Dean on the ground beating him. He then ordered the men to stand back, and pointing his musket at the prisoner, told him if he did not let Dean get up he would shoot. him. The prisoner said he would not, for he would murder him. O'Neil then capped his piece, but the other convicts declaring they would have O'Neil's life, he was obliged to drive them back with his bayonet, as, if he had not been armed, they would have carried their threat into execution. Having driven them back, he looked round and saw Dean on the ground, and the prisoner leaning over him beating him on the bead with the stick. He then went up to the prisoner and pushed him off with his bayonet, and then marched him off at the point of the bayonet to the prison. The prisoner, in cross-examining O'Neil asked him what he was doing at a particular moment. O'Neil replied "I was capping my musket to blow your brains out." He visited the store every five or six minutes, as was li:s duty. The prisoner said he would kill a dozen such as O'Neil. (O'Neil was the only one of 10 men who escaped at the Khyber-pass in India, and afterwards took a standard under Sir Charles N ipier at Meeanee.) O'Neil, by the Judge.—Eight of the other men had what in Ireland he should call hatchets. He did not know what they called them in England. Dean was taken to the hospital, and was found to have been so much injured that for a time the result was very doubtful. His head and his back were very much injured, and it would be a long ime, if ever, before he would be able to do any- thing. The jury returned a verdict of Guilty with intent to maim and to do grievous bodily harm. The learned Judge then addressed the prisoner— You have been convicted of this very serious offence, and if you had been convicted on the first count of the indictment it would have been my duty to sen tence you to penal servitude for life. I was glad to find myself justified-in recommending the jury to relieve you from that charge. I did not know at the time I addressed the jury what the nature of you? previous misconduct had been, so that you may be sure you have had a perfectly fair trial. There has been every disposition to treat you as fairly as we should have tried any other person on whose cha racter there had never been a stain; but I now know that you had already been sentenced to four years, seven years, and to another period of penal servitude. Under these circumstances I have no course to pursue but to pass a very severe sentence upon you. You are yet a young man, and if you conduct yourself properly it may be, I don't ssy it will, that before the expiration of your sentence some consideration may be shown to you, and that you may be relieved from part of its severity, but I beg of you when you return to your prison to con sider that it is for your interest to conduct yourself properly, and not to be guilty of those excesses of which you have been convicted. The sentence now is, that you be kept in penal servitude for the term of 20 years. The prisoner was then removed. The following is the history of the prisoner : In 1854, having previously been convicted of nu merous crimes for which he had undergone vari ous terms of imprisonment, he was sentenced to be kept in penal servitude for four years. He was sent to Dartmoor, and in 1857 he made a murderous attack on a warder, of which he was convicted at the Exeter Lent assizes in 1857, and was sentenced to seven years' penal servitude. He was then sent to Bermuda, and there he made a similar attack upon a warder, and was sentenced to 15 years' penal servitude, and he was then sent from that colony to Portsmouth.
