THE PRINCE ALBERT MEMORIAL AT
ABERDEEN.

/SOX 0171 Owl' 117011111.

ABERDEEN, Oar. 13.

The inauguration of the Maroehetti statue in

soommemoration of the late Prince Consort took
place to-day, under circumstances, as regards the
weather, as unfavourable as could well be imagined,
bat I. every other respect with a result as satisfac-
tory as could be desired, to all concerned in its
I Illecties. The new work of art which now °mi-
nions the winced of Union-street istheresult of a
anbearipties promoted by the people of the meaty
mid city of Aberdeen for goo purpose of retaining sa
esduring record of one who, in his lifetime, spout
many happy days in this part of the kingdom.
About 3,0001. was thus raised.
A special and • peculiar interest attached to the
oarenonyef today--for, on this 000mion, for ties fiat
tine sines %nos Albert's death, the Queen presented
herself is a public manner before bee people, and
seed ewe more, as she used to do of old—the

this butanes associated with feelings of too peamnal
and too melancholy • kind. It is • mistake to
suppose, as has been stated, that any request or
wish was expressed that her Majesty should be
present on this tension. So far from this being
correct, the truth is that the inauguration bad
been fixed for Friday last, and hundreds of
people who had come to witness the ceremony
on that day, left Aberdeen disappointed. The
artist himself, Baron Marochetti, was in Aberdeen
on Friday for the purpose of taking part in the
ceremony of the uncovering of the statue, sad he
was not there to-day. It is quite tree the fact was
announced to her Majesty that the day of inaugura-
tion was fixed ; and then it was that she expressed,
through General Grey, to the Lord Provost of
Aberdeen, her wish to be present. The language
in which her Majesty intimated that wish is at once
so appropriate and so touching that it is impas-
sible not to feel it was the sentiment of
her own heart that dictated the letter
which conveyed her desire on the sub-
ject. It was the prompt and spontaneous
energy of the Queen that gave the present oere.
monial all its interest, for it necessarily kindled its
the breasts of all her subjects a hope that it might
be only the first renewal of those associations be-
tween sovereign and people which led to such happy
results in the poet. Her Majesty, it is true, was
present at the marriage of the Prince of Wales, but
rather in the capacity of the mother than of the
Queen, and even then in a very private way. At
the great inauguration of the Albert Memorial is
the Horticultural Gardens she was not present at
all, although previously and subsequently to the
public ceremony she took a private view of the
statue. Noe is it to be wondered at that she should
have paid Aberdeen the distinguished compliment of
making her first public appearance there, consider-
ing that it is the capital of the county in
which the husband to whose memory she is so
devoted Famed some of the " happiest" portion of
his life. Salmoral must ever be reflected in the
mind of her Majesty as " a pensive though a happy
place;" and no doubt, as she intimates herself, it
was with something of the same mingled feeling
that she came forward to-day to take part in •" to
her distressing and yet a gratifying ceremony."

What were well understood to be the wishes of
her Majesty left little opportunity to Mr. Ander-
son, the lord provost of Aberdeen, or the labs,-
bitants for display of any kind. Through-
out the city there was an entire absence
of those signs which are the unvarying
precursors of any public spectacle or ceremony.
There were scarcely any flags, no festooning, no
music, no decoration of any kind, and, with the
exception of the platform in front of the Northern
Club, from which the Queen was to witness the
uncovering of the statue, the platform on the
opposite side, from which 500 spectators who chose
to pay ss. for a seat could also view both the statue
and the Queen, and some barriers erected along the
line of procession, there was absolutely nothing to
indicate that anything beyond the ordinary routine
of daily life in Aberdeen was about to take place in
its streets. The throng of people, the closing of
the shops, and the large number of military in
the streets alono announced that something
unusual was about to take place. It bas
been already intimated that the weather was unfa-
vourable, but this form of expression does not even
approximate to the truth. From ten o'clock till
three there was an unceasing down-pour of rain,
which might well have damped the ardour of any
sight-loving crowd, but which seemed not to have
the smallest effect on the spirits of the people of
Aberdeen. The line of procession extended from
the railway station to the western end of Union-
street, through Guild-street, Regent-quay, Marie-
chal-street, C44le-street, and the greater part of
Union-street, and throughout the whole distance
not only were the windows full, the streets lined
nine and ten deep with spectators, but the
yardarms and rigging of the vessels in
the harbour, and in some instances the
very house-tops, were stuck with adventurous
and rain-despising acrobats. Whether regarded as
a proof of loyalty or of mere curiosity, the fortitude
with which young and
•old, male and female, stood
five hours of peppering rain would have been
sublime if in numerous instances it did not afford
ample opportunity for indulging the sense of the
ludicrous, which Lord Naive'', in his recent address
to the Social Science Association, is of opinion
ought to receive every encouragement. The line of
procession was kept by the Aberdeen depot bat-'
talion, under the command of Colonel Gordon,
C. 8., the Aberdeen Artillery and Rine Volunteers,'
under the command of Colonel Gordon, of Fyne,
and Colonel Erskine, the Naval Reserve: and Cosa-
Guard, under the command of Captain Balfour, of
her Majesty's ship Winchester, detachments of the'
Highland regiments brought from Edinburgh,
Stirling, and Perth, the 3rd Rimier', under Captain
Bell, and the polies of the city and county. The
military force was under the command of General
Walker.

At half-past 11 o'clock thou persons who were
to form part of the procession assembled in the
Town-buss, and as soon as the arrangements were
completed they proceeded in 20 carriages to the
station, where her Majesty's arrival was expected
about one o'clock. The following are the names
of some of those who formed the procession :
