Her Majesty's Arrival in Scotland.

ABOYNE, Saturday.
The royal train conveying her Majesty and suite entered
the Aboyne Station at 27 minutes past one this afternoon,
exactly four minutes before it was duo, according to the
time laid down by the London and North-Western Rail-
way Company for regulating its progress throughout the
journey. The distance from Windsor to Aboyne (632 miles)
was acc,mplished in 18 hours and 37 minutes, including
two hours and two minutes stoppages, thus showing the
actual travelling to have occupied 161 hours, or about 3G
miles per hour.

The train was under the charge of Mr. William Cawk-
well, the general manager of thy- North Western line, and
arrived at the different stopping points the minute it was
due, with the excepti of Perth and A.'..,eideen, each of
which stations it reached one minute before the specified
time.

Large numbers of people awaited the arrival of her Ma-
jesty, whom they respectfully greeted.
After a short delay, her Majesty and suite proceeded in
carriages to Balmoral, a distance of 20 miles from Aboyne,
and reached the castle about half-past three o'clock.

MARKETS—This Day.

MARX-LANE.
There was less activity in the demand for wheat in the
country markets held on Saturday, and in most instances,
the supplies on offer could only be disposed of at a reduc-
tion in prices of is per quarter. All descriptions of spring
corn moved off slowly, at barely late rates. Flour ruled
inactive, at:previous currencies,
At New York, at the date of our last advices, an officia
announcement had been made of the re-opening of the
canals, and a further decline had taken place in the value
of breadstuffs. On the continent, however, wheat is
tolerably firm in price.
Up to our market, last week, the arrivals of English
grain were very moderate. The imports from abroad
were confined to 9,651 quarters of wheat; 4,59: barley;
31,715 oats; 50 beans; 77 peas; 17 tares; 135 sundry
seeds ; and 250 sacks of flour.
There was a decline in prices of wheat of is to 2s per qrR
