EKHIBMON OF THE " LION QUEEN " BEFORE HER
MAJES44.—List evening two of Mr. Wombwell's earavana,
containing the per forming wild animals, having been de-
tached from the rest, and drawn up on the eastern side of the
quadrangle, Windsor Castle, just beneath the windows of the
corridor, a platform was erected in front, on which were
placed 24 brilliantly lighted oil lamps, supplied from the
castle. Shortly after 7 o'clock, her Majesty, the Prince
Consort, with the Prince of Wales and the royal family, the
Dachas* of Kent, the visitors at the castle, and the gentle-
men and ladies of the court, appeared at the windows of the
corridor, which were thrown open, Mr. Wombwell's band
performing the National Anthem. Miss Chapman then com-
menced her performances, showing her astonishing command
over the wild animals, highly to the gratification of her illus-
trious spectators. At the conclusion of this exhibition, which
lasted for nearly half an hour, her Majesty was pleased to
command that an acknowledgment be conveyed to the
" Lion Queen" for the gratification she had afforded.
