TILE QUEEN'S VISIT TO TILE NORM

In yesterday's Express was recounted the progress
of the Queen from o,burne up to the departure from Lon-
don by the Great Northern Railway.
The line of railway wao thickly dotted with spectators fur
a ycry considerable distance from the station, and it was
not until tho valley of Southgate was reached, that the
country tu.suimd its malal aspect. .

Hatfield was the tirst town which poured out its poptilas
Lion to greet the sovereign. here the railway stati.m was
lined with happy faces, whose smiles were rewarded with
only a very passing glance of her Majesty, the length of the
journey to he accomplished rendering it necessary that the
train should pass through ail the lesser stations at full
speed.
Ilitehen, distant from London 32 miles, was the first
halting point, awl this wily fur the purpose of replenishing
the boiler. The station here was decorated with Hags, and
thronged with spectators, who took advantage of the mo-
mentary halt of the royal party, to sing a couple of
stanzas of the National Anthem.

Biggleswade and the country of the Bedford Level was
next approached. At frequent points the royal train was
watched for with evident anxiety by knots of villagers,
who gave vent to their feelings of loyalty by the waving
of handkerchiefs, and such other demonstrations as could be

hastily devised.
Iluntingdoa was reached at a quarter-past three o'clock,
the royal approach h. lug heralded by a salute from some
guns in a field adjacent.
The platform of the station and the embankments of the
railway fur some distance were thronged with spectators,
and it was really a matter of regret that the arrangements
of the iron road did not permit a slackening of speed as the
royal party passed through.
At Peterborough the satire population of the city seemed
to have assembled at the station, for when the royal train
drove up to the platform a perfect sea of faces was observed
on every side; the air resounding with shouts of welcome.
The mayor and corporation were in attendance, headed by
the bishop of Peterborough and the clergy of the district ;

and when the saloon carriage drew up, the venerable bishop
(who, it will be renumbered, assisted in the Queen's tuition)
advanced to the window and paid his respects to her Majesty.
The Queen appeared much pleased to recognise her venera-
ble preceptor, and remained iw conversation with his lord-
ship for some minutes. Among the ladies upon the platform
WAS the Countess of Aboyuc, with several of her ladyship's
children. One of them, a beautiful boy, about live years of
size, dressed in Hi!:hland costume, and carrying a beautiful
bouquet, was led forward by the bishop to present his oiler.
to her Majesty, who received it very graciously.
