—We last week aneeeneed the joyous reception which
everywhere inet the Queen on her journey from Killar-
ney to Dublin. The terminus of the Kingstown Rail-
way was literally crammed with the ibte of the Irish
capital. Arriving at Dublin, the Royal party, instead
of calling at the 17iseregal Lodge, went immediately on
baud the Royal yacht, and on Friday morning wailed
for Holyhead. 'After reaching Holyhead, the Prince
Consort and Prince Alfred paid • visit to Caruso-me
Cantle and Beddeeelert Ohs Betligelert of the well-
known and favounte ballad.) The Princes travelled by
especial train, under tits direction of Mr. Binger. mans-
prof the Chester old Holyhead branch of the London
and North-Western Railway, and reached Carnarvon
about half-peat one o'elark. Here their arrival had been
telegraphed, and • poet-chaise and four from the Tit-
bridge Arms hotel was in attendance at the railway
station to (newsy them on to their destination. On leav-
ing the railway, the Prises Coniortdesired the po. tboys
to drive ilest to Carnarvou Castle. A ladies' berme in
aid of some local charity was being heW in the court
yard of the venerable ruin whenthe P incoms•rrived, and
their pe.senee was unobserved for BOUM little tint,'
among the onswd of visitors. Dame Roberts,
widow of one of the late Lord Anglewey's
veterans, who has charge of the male, received
the Prince like any other stranger, and in the
hustle of the besaar handed his party Over to a young
Welsh maiden, who just lisped suMcient English to es
-
plain the various localities of the castle. Thus
chaperoned the Primus Consort, with his sailor son,
made a hasty circuit of the min, and listened some-
times with a seereely suppremed snide to the little
Welshwoman's tele of where King Edward I. dined
with historian, sad where hi Queen gave birth to the
lid Bum Prime of Wales. Although their time warn
essieseerily limited, the Princes weeded to the top of
the Eagle Tower, whence a commanding view of the
surrounding tionntry is obtained. Just before leaving
the castle the Prince Consort was reapplied by the
Rev. Mr. Vincent, vicar orCernervon, but after an ex-
change of salutations, his Royal Highness hastily retired,
and before his little Welsh guide was even seaweed
of the lemoureble ogles she had been (alining. the
Royal party were well on theiy way to Bedderelert.
On the way they passed Lyn-y-Oader, a gloomy and
circular lake, surrounded by dark and rugged crap, in
the vicinity of which Ediw•rd I. encamped his army
when engaged in miigating the Principality. A
short distance (coin this place, and close to the r
is a noes of rock, the outline of which gives a fair re-
semblance of the prattle of the distingaished statesman,
aud be,ri the appellation of Pitt's Head. The Royal
party passed to observe this curious natural phenome-
non, and then, journeying on through the pleasant
valley of Colwyn, arrived at Lzrefert at half-past
three o'clock. The Princes s at the Goat but
