THE QUEEN AT BALMORAL.
BALLATRR, SATUIDAT Byname.
The projected stay of the royal party at the shooting
ledge was noel curtailed. They reasissed bat one night—
departing on the OWlStine of the day sabsequat to that on
which they arrived. The cause of this abandomost of
their heirs can only be gamed at. Rumour ascribes an ex-
partition which we would fain hope is insecurate. It is said
that their expectation of unmolested seclusion was disap-
poiated—that they were tumble to stir abroad without ea-
'mutating multitudes of gazers—and that for this reason
they left alp molly. No doubt a number of pasties visit
Ledisiager and Loch Mulch, wto necessarily pass the
ledge. These may have received soma aumentation from
the eiremstasee that such illustrious visitors were there,
end might possibly be fallen in with; but in general they are
emptied of persons most taalikely to act la any subs-
uming or imprudent way.

inspection through the }hided Bay territories and north-

panions. Sir John Ruhardson indeed is on his way back
from the frozen regions, and may be expected in Montreal
early in Slsternber. His exploring forty will, however,
