HER MAJESTY.

Arrival of the Queen in Scotland:

With gracious consideration her Majesty delayed
her arrival at Balmoral by proceeding from Perth on
Tuesday morning, to visit the Duke of Athol° at
Blair Castle. (His grace, it will be remembered, is
in a critical state.) The royal train went from Perth
to Blair Athole by the new Perth line, and return-
ing, joined the Scottish North Eastern line at Stan-
ley. Dr Mathews and Mr. Birnie, directors of the
Scottish North E astern Railway accompanied the
train. Ferry hill, Aberdeen, was reached at 3.12.
Here the engines were changed, and a couple of
engines of the Deeside were stationed. The Scot-
tish North Eastern directors also left the royal
train, and their places were taken by Mr. Duncan,
chairman, and three other of the directors of
the Deeside Railway. The station at Ferry-
hill was kept quite private, only the Lord
Provost of Aberdeen, the convener of the
county, and a few officials being present. The
blinds of the Queen's carriage were, however,
drawn, so that her Majesty could be sten as she
acknowledged the respectable though quiet greetings
of these present. Aboyne was reached at 4.25, and
the Queen posted thence to Baimoral in about a
couple of hours. The day was pretty favourable,
though several heavy showers fell.
