THE QUEEN.—It is now understood that her Ma-
jesty has signified her intention of residing at Windsor till the first week
in November, when the Court will remove direct to Brighton, where
her Majesty will remain till the period arrives for taking up her abode
in the metropolis. The domestics in charge of the palace have no orders
touching the arrival of her Majesty, but private sources state that the
mansion appropriated to Sir Herbert Taylor, or one of those at the
southern extremity of Marlborough-place, is forthwith to be got ready
for the reception of the nincess Augusta. The Queen, we have reason
to believe, will not arrive at this place until the 9th of November.
The painting of the palace, which was suddenly stopped last year in
consequence of her Majesty's arrival, is now being proceeded with.—
