THE ROYAL PROGRESS TO SCOTLAND.

The Irish visit completed, her Majesty, the Prince
Consort, and the members of the Royal fat nily who ac-
companied them to Dublin are seeking with all c nve-
nient speed the seclusion and the mountain air and ex-
ercise of Balmoral. From an affair of State connected
with the vital interest of the sister kingdom the Queen's
progress henceforth becomes the simple joiurney of the
first lady in the land to her home in the north. Beyond,
therefore, the brief assurance of the safety with which
that journey is performed the public have little further
to learn with regard to it.
The Royal party witnessed on Monday morning, at a
quarter to 7 o'clock, in Holyhead harbour, the explosion
of a great mine containing 4,0001 b. or 5,0001 b. of gun-
powder at the Quarries. By this gigantic operation
about 20,000 tons of material available for the break-
waters were at once detached from the cliff, and the
sublimity of the spectacle may therefore readily be con-
ceived.

At half-past 8 o'clock, the Victoria and Albert having
previously steamed round to the landing-place of the old
harbour, the illustrious party disembarked, and enter-
ing the Royal train were drawn by horses to a point
on the rails nearly opposite Hibbert's Royal Hotel.
Here the engine was attached, and the journey north-
wards at once commenced. Captain Simmons, RE.,
again took charge of the train ; and this new arrange-
ment is likely to prove much more agreeable to the
railway authorities than the old, as it effectually re-
lieves them from the interference of members of the
Household, not in every instance pleasantly con-
ducted. The Royal party reached Chester at a quarter
to 11 o'clock, where Mr. Binger, the manager, and the
ether officers of the Chester and Holyhead Railway, took
their leave. Proceeding thence at a rapid pace by Park-
side, Lancaster was gained at 1, and Carlisle at a quarter
past 3. After a stay of an hour there for luncheon,
the journey was resumed, and her Majesty is expected
to reach Edinburgh at a quarter to 7 o'clock. She has
been received thus far with the warmest demonstrations
of loyalty by crowds of her subjects collected at all the
stations on the route. At Chester a guard of honour
lined the platform and saluted, the band playing the
National Anthem. Further on, at Warrington, a salute
was fired from a fine new ship on the stocks, and the
factory operatives turned out in large numbers to give
their Queen a hearty cheer. It was much the same
along the entire line, and nothing more bespeaks the
interest with which her Majesty is regarded by even the
humblest of her people than to observe that at the lone-
liest wayside cottages the inmates expect on these occa-
sions her approach, and shout and wave their hats and
hankerchiefs as the train whirls past.

The Royal train arrived at Edinburgh punctually at a
quarter before 7 o'clock, and the illustrious travellers,
escor(ed by cavalry, proceeded at once in carriages to
Holyrood Palace.

Princes-street was crowded from end to end with
spectators, who gave her Majesty an unpremeditated,
but very enthusiastic, reception.

THE QUEEN'S VISIT TO IRELAND.—It seems that
her Majesty, just as she had reached the precincts of the
city on Saturday evening, expressed to the Lord Mayor
"her regret" that her visit had not been of "longer
duration." The Freeman's Journal, moralizing upon
the effect of the Royal visit, advises the people to re-
turn from holiday-making, and to work out the problem
of self-reliant industry. " Talk " will no longer do.
They must ascertain what the impediments are to in-
dustrial progress, and to remove them with all conve-
nient despatch, "in order that industry may flourish,
and bring happiness and comfort to the poor's home,
while giving wealth and fame to the nation." In the
views thus expressed who could recognise the old tone
of the old organ of Irish agitation ? Surely, after this,
it cannot be said that the past week has been barren of
good fruit.— Times.
MARRIAGE OF GRISI.—It is said that Grisi and Mario
were privately married a few days ago at St. John's
Wood. The recent death of M. de Melcy (Mme. Grisi's
late husband) had, on dit, hastened the union of the two
celebrated artistes.

THE WELLINGTON MEMORIAL AT GUlLDHALL.—Yes-
terday a number of workmen were employed at the
Guildhall in constructing a substantial hoarding inside
that building, for the purpose of receiving the different
models in commemoration of the late Duke of 'Welling-
' ton. Out of the,,e one will be selected by the commit-
tee to be fixed, after the marble is chiselled, in the niche
now filled by the Beckford statute. The committee meet
to-day to view the specimens.
THE LATE DUKE.—Wednesday, the 14th of the pre-
sent month will be the first anniversary of the death of
the Duke of Wellington.
MILITARY PATRONAGE.—Since Lord Hardinge's ac-
cession to office there have been no less than eleven co-
lonelcies fallen vacant, not certainly bad for the first
year of a Commander-in• Chief. There will shortly be
vacant several fine commands in the colonies. There
are now two colonelcies at the Commander's disposal,
viz. :—the 22d, vacant by the death of Sir Charles
Napier ; and the 78th Highlan&rs, by the death of Sir
Neil Douglas—strange to add, the last four vacant regi-
ments were held by either natives of Scotland or men
of Caledonian origin.
CITY OF LONDON REGISTRATION OF PARLIAMENTARY
VOTERS.—The claims and objections to come before the
revising barrister for the City of London this year, ac-
cording to the returns made under the act to Mr. T.
M`Christie, are as follows :

Objec- Total Claims? Claims. tions. and Objections.

The Earl of Derby, who was suffering rather severely
from gout on his arrival at Knowsley Hall, Lancashire,
from London, has much improved in health during the
last fortnight. Lord Stanley, M.P., has left Knowsley,
on a tour.

FREEDOM OF THE CITY OF GLASGOW TO LORD PAL-
MERSTON.—At the meeting of the Town Council of Glas-
gow on Thursday, the Lord Provost gave notice that
he would move at next meeting that the Council agree
to present Lord Palmerston with the freedom of the
city. At a special meeting of the Town Council of In-
verness, held on Saturday last, a similar resolution was
come to with respect to Mr. Gladstone.
GREAT RISE IN CORN.—Stamford market, on Friday,
was in a most excited state, and the price of wheat rose
in some instances as much as 9s. per quarter. This un-
expected and almost unparalleled advance, which was
attributable to the presence of several French merchants,
whg became extensive purchasers, was not confined to
Stainford. At Spalding wheat sold for Bs. to 10s. more
money than it fetched on the previous market day, and
Eljlar advances have taken place in other markets in
t • neighbourhood.
