HER MAJESTY•

WINDSOR CASTLE, Nov. 3.
The Queen, accompanied by their Royal High"
nesses the Crown Princess of Prussia (Princess
Royal of England) and Princess Louis of Hesse,
walked in the grounds this morning.
Her Royal Highness Princess Louise went out
driving.
Their Royal Highnesses the Crown Prince of
Prussia and Prince Louis of Hesse went out
shooting.

Departure of the Plince and Princess os
Wales from Knowsley.
Yesterday morning the royal visit to Knowsley
came to a close. After the rain on Thursday the
weather yesterday became fine again, and early 1n
the day large numbers of people from Liverpool
and other places in the neighbourhood assembled at
Huyton to witness the departure of the illustrious
guests of the Earl of Derby.
The saloon carriages in which their royal high-
nesses and their suite were to travel left the Lime-
street Station, Liverpool, at ten minutes past ten
yesterday morning, to receive the party
at Huyton,
and be in readiness to join the ordinary up express
train which leaves Liverpool at 11.30. In waiting
at the Huyton Station were Mr. Neale, the general
superintendent of the London and North-
Western. Railway ; Mr. Knox, the traffic manager
of the. Liverpool end, and several other officials'
The royal train made up contained five carriages--
the royal saloon, a saloon carriage for the gentle-
men and ladies in waiting, two carriages for the
household, and a truckbearing the baggage waggon
of the party. It was drawn up to the departure
platform of the station, in anticipation of the arrival
of their royal highnesses about 11 o'clock. Shortly
before that hour the Prince and Princess of Wales,
accompanied by the Earl of Derby, Capt. Stanleif
Lieutenant-General Knollys, and the Hon. MO'
Grey, left Knowsley Hall, and drove towards the
station. As they passed through the village of Hur
ton they were heartily cheered by the crowds who
occupied the galleries and other places of observa-
tion which bad been allowed to remain since the
reception on Monday. Their greeting grew warmer
as they approached the station, and when the prin-
cess alighted at the gates an enthusiastic shout
arose from the spectators in the building and upon
the large temporary stand outside. The express was
not at the time due, and the long stay which their
royal highnesses had to make was an unlooked-for
boon to the public, whose delight increased in proper-
tion to the inconvenience to which the royal Purr
were put. The prince and princess wiled away the
time by chatting with the Earl of Derby upon the
platform, and afterwards from the window of their
carriage, and thus the better part of half an hour
was spent. About 10 minutes before 12 o'clock
the express came in sight and stopped short of the
station ; the royal train backed out of the station,
and was joined to the express, and, as the royal
saloon repassed the platform, the crowd gave a last
ringing cheer. The prince and princess bowed
their acknowledgments as they passed, and the
train went off at high speed. The route lay along
the London and North-western railway to Blis-
worth, thence by special to Peterborongh, and,
lastly, by special on the Great Eastern railway to
the Sandringham station at Wolferton.
There remains very little to note in connection
with the visit to Knowsley. The dinner and ball
of Thursday, mentioned in our yesterday's issue,
went off with great success. The band of the Gre-
nadier Guards, conducted by Mr. D. Godfrey, was
present, and performed a selection of music. Diu'
ring the evening the Prince of Wales took occasion
to express to Mr. Godfrey his admiration of his
latest composition, the " Hilda Waltz."
The second day's shooting in the Knowsley coverts
resulted in a bag of more than 900 head of ga,lne'
about 400 of which were pheasants.
Previous to the departure of their royal highnesses/
the Mayor of Liverpool received a letter from Gen.
Knollys conveying the acknowledgments of the
Prince and Princess of Wales for the arrangements
made and the trouble taken to make their visit to
that town interesting and agreeable. The letter
stated that the reception will long remain engrave°
on the minds of their royal highnesses.
The prince and princesses were evidently well
pleased with their reception both at Knowsley and
Liverpool ; and, previous to their departure from
Knowsley, Messrs. Lee and Nightingale, the well;
known newspaper correspondents and agents,
Castle-street, Liverpool, were requested to send
them several copies of each day's local papers from
the Monday until the day of their departure.

no foundation whatever for the report that the Frencli,

ance, which cannot be too severely reprehended.
