Madame Bunsen and the Earl of Liverpool arc

Queen.
Our Windsor correspondent states that her
Majesty and the Princess of Prussia visited St. George's
Chapel. Her Majesty and the Princess alighted at Cardinal
Wolsey's tomb-house, through which they walked to the
Chapel of St. George; entering the sacred edifice by the
cloister postern, near the chapter-room. His Royal High-
ness Prince Albert (attired in sporting costume), Viscount
Palmerston, Viscount and Viscountess Canning, and some
other of the distinguished visitors at the castle walked by the
side of the Queen. Her Majesty and the Prince Consort,
I with their royal and distinguished guests, were received,
upon their arrival at the chapel, by the Rev. David Mark-
ham, the canon in residence, who had the honour of con-
ducting them over the interior of the building. The royal
party, after visiting the choir, proceeded through the nave to
the cenotaph of the Princess Charlotte, and returned thence
to the Queen's closet. Dr. Elvey, her Majesty's organist,
played the national anthem upon the Queen entering the
chapel, and several sacred compositions during the royal
visit. The royal puty returned to the castle after staying
about half•an-hour. The commencement of the morning
service was suspended for a short time, in consequence of the
visit of her Majesty. The Duchess of Kent was slightly
indisposed on Sunday last, and is not quite recovered, and
her Royal Highness remains at Frogmore.
