THE POET AND THE RUIN.
Along the Medway's beauteous brink,
A poet strolled to gaze and think ;
When lo ! an old romantic tower
Arrested him with mogic power.
The poet stood to gaze awile
Upon the antiquated pile ;
And while his raptured vision falls
Around the venerable walls,
He feels the Muses' secret power,
And thus addressed the ruined tower :
" Hall, fabric of the bygone days,
On thy rich scene I love to gaze ;
Like tome fair picture dost thou seem,
Near Medway's undulating stream.
Those old, grey mouldering stones of thine
Inspire a fancy warm as mine ,
And thus I've owned the secret power,
Thou venerable ruined tower."
" Thanks," said the pile—for stones are able
To talk away, like bricks, in fable—
" Thanks, worthy poet I many thanks,
For musing thus on Medway's banks;
But really Pin surprised that you,
Who sing of Moses as you do—
Yes, I'm surprised, I must confess,
You did not touch upon my dress.
This ivy mantle, which you scan,
Acts as does Moses' dress on man.
Had you not been to Moses' Mart
For garments so extremely smart,
You'd look, from what I see of you,
Not quite so handsome as you do.
And this, applied to me, fond youths,
Is nothing but the ' naked truth.' "
The Bard had not a word to say,
But feeling guilty, sneaked away.

THE WEATHER AND CROPS.
AYRSHIRE.—The weather has been moist, with
more genial heat than usual during the last• few days,
so that the crops are progressing rapidly. Wheat
will be a good crop if we have warm weather ; oats
are mending fast, but will be late; beans are an
excellent crop. Turnips are growing luxuriantly,
and the unusually large breadth of potatoes planted
are still strong and healthy. There are reports of a
few instances of taint amongst early potatoes—but
nothing yet to create alarm. •Harvest will be
probably three weeks later than last year.—Ayr
Adevrtiser.

LarsaresuraE.l--The broken weather, which we
noticed in our last, continued up till Monday evening,
during which day heavy thunder showers fell re-
peatedly. Tuesday opened up bright and beautiful,
and continued so till the afternoon, when the gather-
ing of dark masses of clouds, and the sultry air,
indicated the approach of a thunder-storm, which
speedily followed.' There were two or three loud
peals, succeeded by rain, which fell in torrents fn.
nearly half-an-hour. This storm was experienced
with greater or less intensity over the whole west of
Scotland. Since then the weather has been altogether
fine. The late rains have done much more good to
the growing crops than injury by lodging; and it is
admitted on all hands that a fortnight's solar heat,
from this date, would bring a heavy crop to maturity,
at a period not later than last year.— Glasgow Herald.
PERTHSHIRE.—We have had a good deal of rain in
the shape of thunder showers during the last eight
days, which has done a vast deal more good to the
growing crops than injury by lodging. Indeed,
there is comparatively little grain to be seen laid, and
four weeks' steady fine weather are alone wanting to
bring a very heavy crop to maturity. The potato
crops have improved lately, and our market is abun-
dantly supplied, not only with the early kinds, but a
few late reds have made their appearance, to take ad-
vantage of the present prices, which are still above
the average when the crop is at maturity. We have
neither seen nor heard of any indications of disease,
and purchases are making with more confidence than
for the last three years, at rates varying from 201. to
251. per acre. The season, however, for general sale
in that crop will not be for some weeks, when the
prospect of its produce and quality will be better
ascertained. Turnips are progressing favourably,
particularly where early sown ; but this unsettled
weather has been against the hay crop being got in,
which is short at any rate, and prices are rising; old
10d. and new 6d. per stone.--=Perth Courier.
DUMFRIESSIIIRE.—We enjoyed last week an op-
portunity of examining the crops in several pleasant
parishes, such as Troqueer, Newabbey, Irongray, and
portions of Kirkbean. From all we could learn the
general crops of rye-grass and clover are in more
cases under than at or above the well known medium
termed a fair average. Up to the confines of Mabie
Moss we found grain of all kinds highly promising
throughout Troqueer, with exceptions hardly worth
naming; and beans wherever grown in excellent
fettle. Potatoes are everywhere redolent of bloom,
stronger in the stem and broader in the leaf than has
been known for long ; and pasture land again refreshed
equally inviting from the rifeness of the white clover,
that contrasts so engagingly with renovated soles of
virgin green.—Dumfries Courier.
ABERDEENSHIRE.—There is still much variableness
in the weather. We have for some weeks had but
little of that warmth that is to be looked for at this
season of the year, but wet and cloudy weather has
been the staple influence of the season. There is as
yet, we are happy to say, no appearance of disease in
the potatoes, which are everywhere healthy, and pro-
mise both in quantity and quality a good yield. The
crops of every other kind continue equally promising
throughout this part of the country. The barley is,
in some early spots, changing colour, and in another
week wilt have assumed the golden hue of autumn.
Garden fruits are more abundant than it was thought
they would prove, after the frosts of spring. Straw-
berries are very plentiful, and of good quality, not-
withstanding the damage they sustained from the late
rains. Gooseberries are less abundant; and pears and
apples show a considerable deficiency, except on warm
walls.—Aberdeen Journal.
INVERNESS-SHIRE, &c —We have lately had rather
a superabundance of moisture, with a lack of sunshine.
On Monday evening rain fell heavily here, accom-
panied by thunder and lightning, which continued
throughout most of the night. The electric fluid was
of the description called sheet-lightning, and some of
the peals of thunder were loud and near. Happily no
damage was done, though the fields were drenched
with rain, and some of the heavier crops slightly
lodged. One rich field of wheat at Beauly is par-
tially laid. On the whole, however, the crops look
luxuriant, and the weather is now warm and breezy,
exactly such as is required to bring on a favourable
harvest. A correspondent at Fort Augustus (July
30) mentions the late heavy rains, but adds—" The
crops do not appear to have suffered injury. The
earl of the cereals are heavy, and there is no deficiency
of straw. The potatoes look luxuriant."—lnverness
Courier.
BERWICKSHIRE.—During the past ten days we
have had showery weather, accompanied with heat,
which has done a vast deal of good to the growing
crops. Potato fields promise well—all look healthy;
and garden produce which is now in use, is excellent
in quality. The hay crop is mostly cut, and is a full
average; in some districts very heavy. Barley is
expected to be an average crop. Wheat is a splendid
crop throughout this county. We never saw it look
better.—Berwick Advertiser.
RADNORSHIRE.—A correspondent who has recently
travelled over the greater part of the adjoining county
of Radnor, says that he never remembers the wheat
crop looking better than at present. Should the har-
vest be favourable, the produce, both as to bulk and
quality, will, he thinks, be the finest ever witnessed.
Oats are weak in the straw, but the deficiency may
be made out in the weight and quality of the grain.
Barley, the most critical crop for some parts of Wales,
promises well on those descriptions of land which are
suitable to this kind of corn. There is not the slightest
trace of the potato disease.—Hereford Journal.
IRELAND.—We have anxiously looked to the gene-
ral state of the potato crop, which must after all be
the staple food of our people for some time longer,
and we are happy to say that there has been as yet no
appearance of the fatal blight which destroyed the
crop of late years, at all calculated to create alarm.—
.Newry Examiner. We continue to receive the most
favourable accounts of the potato. Almost all appre-
hension as to the fate of the crop has now vanished.—
Cork Examiner We last week went through a large
Derry,portn of the counties of Donegal, Tyrone,
state othnaetamore and
cheering
prospect of an abundant harvest we never witnessed ;
the potatoes look beautiful.—Ballyshannon Herald.
The potato crop is still promising and luxuriant.—
Waterford Mail. After a succession of rain for some
days, the weather yesterday became exceedingly fine.
The country continues to improve daily ; already the
fields are wearing the russet hue of autumn, and
invite the sickle everywhere.—Tipperary Vindicator.
The crops in the neighbourhood of Ballymena look
remarkably well. Both wheat and oats have a pro-
misingappearance ; and the potatoes are most luxuriant
and healthy looking. We have not heard of a single
instance of disease appearing here.—Belfast Northern
Whig.

ELOPEMENT EXTRAORDINARY.—The only daughter
of Mr. George Cowley, an extensive and wealthy far-
mer, residing at Kilsby, has eloped with her grand•
father's groom. The lady in question was between 27
and 28 years of age, highly accomplished, and possessed
of considerable personal attractions. Some time ago,
an eminent railway contractor paid his addresses to the
lady, and was by her accepted as a suitor, but rejected
by her father, who, by way of breaking off the connexion,
kept the daughter under strict surveillance till about a
month since, when he gave her permission to go into
Northamptonshire to visit some friends. Shortly after-
wards the groom, who had for a lengthened period pro-
fessed an attachment towards a fellow-servant, obtained
leave of absence for a week. That time having elapsed,
Mr. Cowley wrote a letter to him, inquiring the cause of
his continued absence, when a reply was received stating
that the young man was indisposed, but would return as
soon as he became convalescent. This state of affairs
continued till Wednesday morning, when it was ascer-
tained that the young lady and the young man, instead
of visiting their friends, had eloped together, and got
married at a town in Rutlandshire. The young lady
possessed between 6,0001. and 7,0001. in her own right.
The two parties had so well arranged the affair that the
principal part of the lady's wardrobe and jewellery was
removed without any suspicion being excited; whilst to
defray the expenses of the nuptials, and the subsequent
tour, Miss Cowley drew 9001. out of her banker's hands.
[ADVERTISEMENT.]—Holloway's Pills, a wonder-
ful Remedy for Bilious Complaints, Indigestion, and disordered
Stomachs.—Mr. Reardon, of Newcastle, who some time past
retired from the legal profession, in consequence of ill health,
brought on by over attention to business, causing great debility,
nervousness, indigestion, and a complete upset of the biliary
system, together with palpitation of the heart, was persuaded
by his friends to try Holloway's Pills, as all the medical advice
he had obtained was unavailing. He persevered in their use,
and attended strictly to the diet as advised, and he is now per-
fectly restored, and his health is better than ever it was before,
although he is in his 65th year. Sold by all druggists, and at
Professor Holloway's Establishment, 244, Strand, London.
FALMOUTH, AUG. 6.—Died Mr. George Hall, a
messenger of the House of Commons, who landed here
to day from the City of Limerick steamer, from Lon-
don, and appears to have been attacked with cholera
on the passage, and of which he died soon after coming
On alwre.

THE QUEEN'S VISIT TO IRELAND.
(From the Chronicle.)
DUBLIN, TuEsnay..—After a storm a lull—after
much sunshine heavy showers. l3oth these changes
have taken place in the Irish capital. Yesterday we
were all in a state of unbridled excitement—to-day
there is visible abroad the langour of reaction. Yes-
terday all was glaring sunshine—to-day all is pouring
rain. Yesterday you were choked with the dust—
to-day you may be drowned in the mud. Flags
droop and cluster in wet folds round their staffs as
though they had just emerged from the wash-tub.
The pipes and frameworks of last night's illumina-
tions look like the corpses of by-gone brilliancy ; and
men are working drearily in- the .wet, pulling to
pieces the drenched pavilions so gay and crowded
twenty-four hours ago.
The weather changed about eleven o'clock last
night, just as I was finishing my dispatch,
and the rain soon descended fast and hea-
vily. For some time the sight-seers in
the streets held out against the deluge,
but it continued to pour unabatingly; and soon
after midnight the rain plashed monotonously upon
deserted pavements. Under these circumstances, the
first batch of candles, when they went out, were not
replaced by fresh detachments ; and so the glare
from window after window first changed into a
mournful flicker, and, finally, into darkness, leav-
ing the atmosphere of the majority of rooms con-
siderably above fever heat, and bequeathing a
plentiful supply of tallow-smeared carpets and case-
ments to the exertions of the housemaids in the
morning.
But her Majesty was not by any means discour-
aged in her sight-seeing projects by the dismal state
of matters over head or the sloppy state of matters
under foot. It had been duly announced to the
authorities of several public institutions that the
Queen would .visit them in the course of the fore-
noon. But the forenoon, as understood by Royalty,
began at a considerably earlier hour of the day than
that estimated as its commencement by the gran-
dees, and, for that matter, by the good folks of
Dublin in general. Consequently, there was but a
very small crowd collected when a couple of plain
carriages, preceded by half a dozen mounted (and
spattered) police, drove rapidly up to that noble
facade, with its finely proportioned portico and its
gracefully rounded sweep of pillared and balustraded
flanks, within which the old Irish Parliament held

its fiery debates, and within which the monetary
authorities of the Bank of Ireland now cash cheques
and transfer stock. In plain language, her Majesty,
attended by the Lord-Lieutenant, arrived in College-
green with very little warning and with very little
fuss.

First she crossed the marble-paved ante-chambers
and corridors, and presently stood in the hall of the
old Irish House of Commons—now the cash office of
the National Bank. No trace of the original pur-
pose of this handsome chamber remains. No
relic of bench or furniture lingers to echo back to
the imagination the accents of Grattan, of Curran,
or of Flood. The counters and desks of the money-
changers extend longitudinally through the hall,
surrounded by carved stone panellings, by fluted
lonic columns, and surmounted by the flat and
sculpture-crusted roof. Altogether, however, it is a
brave hall—lofty, well proportioned, and graceful in
its adornments. ' _ .

—Passing through it, the Queen next entered what
is now the Court of Proprietors—what was once the
Irish House of Lords. This chamber remains in a
great degree fitted up as it was when the last political
debate took place within its walls. It is a circular-
roofed room of modest dimensions. At the upper
end a round niche-like recess exhibits a statue of
George 111. The throne formerly stood there. Be-
neath what was the bar, the room contracts, leaving
a wider space between that and the throne-dais,
which`was the House of Lords proper. Two brown
and antique sheets of tapestry clothe the walls.
They represent James 11. at the siege of London-
derry, and William 111. at the battle of the Boyne.
The general design and execution of these pieces of
art needlework is of the conventional tapestry order.
The figures are rude and clumsy, the perspective
nought, the general effect rough, brown, hard, and
angular,
Leaving the ancient Parliament-house in College-
green, the Royal party drove rapidly across Car-
lisle-bridge to Marlborough street, in which is
situated the principal and central establishment of
the Irish National Schools. The general appearance
of the institution may be described in a sentence.
In a wide open space, greensward and flower bor
ders in front, and paved play-yards behind, stand
three detached buildings, plain and square, but with
some pretensions to a Grecian style, faintly indicated
in their unpretending fa9Ades. The central structure

is the schiol for the younger children—the right is
appropriated to the senior girls—the left to the se-
nior boys.
The Queen first entered the central school-room—
Archbishop Whateley, Archbishop Murray, and the
Right Rev. Dr. MacGettigan here forming a portion
of the royal party. The place is fitted up in the
usual infant-school style—the walls covered with
pictures of animals and simple representations of
trades. The children rose as the Queen entered, and
sung the National Anthem in shrill unison. It was a
really pretty and interesting sight.
Her Majesty next visited the girls' school. here
another stanza of the National Anthem was sung
with great good will and energy. The walls are
hung with pictures representing the different stages
of manufactures in which women take a part, and
having reference, direct or indirect, to household
duties and householl pleasures. The Queen and the
Prince examined with some interest specimens of
needlework executed by the pupils.
It was in the boys' school, however, that the Queen
made the longest stay. Here she took her seat in a
chair of state provided for her at the upper end of
the apartment. A brilliant group of her immediate
attendants partly encircled her. Before her extended
to the bottom of the apartment the long cross-desks,
thronged by their eager and excited juvenile occu-
pants ; and here the concluding stanza of the Na-
tional Hymn was chanted forth with as much energy
as spirit.
After this loyally musical preliminary, some two
dozen of the smartest boys in the school were ranged
iu a semi-circle before her Majesty, and examined in
arithmetic, and generally as to their acquaintance
with the elementary books of the Board. One of the
principal masters officiated upon the occasion, and the
pupils acquitted themselves admirably. The eldest
was not above twelve years of age. They were sharp-
looking, thoroughly Irish boys, with quick twinkling
eyes, and shrewd, clever faces. The Queen two or
three times whispered her approval to the Lord-
Lieutenant, and when the examination was concluded
she requested that the children might have a week's
holiday.
The announcement that the indulgence had been
asked and granted wound up the loyal enthusiasm
of Young Ireland to a pitch which was quite un-
controllable. As the Queen was leaving the school
the juveniles, boys and girls, fairly burst their
bounds, rushed down the steps of their respective
porticos, and flooding out upon the green, thanked
their royal visitor in a succession of cheers, which
if not so loud and deep were certainly as heart-
felt as any which she has heard on the banks of the
Liffey.
The College was the next point of interest visited
by her Majesty. Those conversant with Dublin will
not forget that its massy facade faces College-gree*
—that the circular sweep of the Bank of Ireland
lies opposite to it, a little on the right—and that a
few hundred paces up the busy vista of broad streets
stands the bronze and brass mounted statue of King
William, dressed however as a Roman, not as a
Dutchman. Entering the centre gate of Trinity
College, you are struck by the great extent of the
quadrangle which opens up before you. Some of
the ranges of building are plain, shabby, and
barrack-like. Others are modern and more

stately. On the right-hand rises the pillared
portico of the Examination-hall. Opposite to it,
a front of similar construction encloses the chapel.
The library is a noble mass of building, forming
one vast hall, 210 feet long, 41 feet broad, and 40
feet high ; two ranges of windows illuminate it;
and along the walls and in the windows and deep re-
cesses are ranged a grand literary show of upwards of
90,000 volumes.
This is the only part of the University which the
Queen visited. She was received by the Provost, Dr.
Sadlier, and a party (hurriedly assembled) of the
professors. Several very ancient and curious manu-
scripts and missals were exhibited to the royal party,
and a set of antique drinking horns were not for-
gotten, as proving that the learned pundits of old
consumed something more genial than mere midnight
oil. The other portions of the college were not seen
by her Majesty, although they would in many respects
have repaid a brief visit. In the Examination-ball,
for instance, is hung a fine series of portraits, includn"
intr a quaint flat old picture of the foundress
Elizabeth. On the walls, too, may be seen
ot
and saturnine, but keenly intellectual, seen of Sit
and the girlishly handsome features off h
Ber-
keley. Besides, there is here a reaanßc isriosPit —a
"anti antique in

originally destined, no doubt, to peal forth a joyous
Te Deum over the crushed faith of England. Eliza-
beth presented this remarkable relic to the College.
I took care to make one of the crowd which as-
sembled to see her Majesty pass up College-green, on
her return to the Viceregal Lodge. The weather
was thick and murky, the rain fell more or less
copiously ; now coming down in a pelting shower,
again drizzling in an uncomfortable mist—and the
macadamised streets were seas of churned and
trampled mud. The expectant assemblage, which
formed a double line from the College gates, along
the centre of the Green, nearly up to Dame street,
were quiet and very orderly. Three or four mounted
policemen found no difficulty in keeping, clear an
ample passage. Presently the massive gates of the
College were flung open, a couple of outriders da,hed
forth, and close upon their heels came the royal
carriage—a plain unpretending vehicle--Prince George
of Cambridge and Lieutenant-Colonel Phipps canter-
ing alongside either window. The Lord-Lieutenant
had not, as I understood, accompanied the royal party
to the College; so that, on their return, the cortege
consisted simply of one close carriage, occupied by
her Majesty, the Prince, Lady Jocelyn, and the Hon.
Miss Darner.

There was a general but not very uproarious
handkerchiefs
anddegree of cheering as the Queen passed rapidly
along.
Pe
People ran
uto.ertehegiraiwiyindwoawyse,danaong

upon balconies, and shopmen and customers alike
emerged from before and behind the counter. Hats
pavement, and a nimble phalanx of shouting Dublin
boys splashed through the mud, on either hand, be-
fore and behind the royal carriage, running with a
heartiness of purpose and a command of wind which
made it probable that her Majesty had the advantage
of this escort to the Pheianix. At half-past five, her
Majesty and Prince Albert, attended by his Excel-
lency the Lord-Lieutenant and a small suite, visited
the Royal Hospital. The illustrious visitors were
received at the grand entrance by the Right -Hon.
the Master, Sir Edward Blakeney; the Deputy-
Masters, Colonels Cochran and Mansel ; the Regis-
ter, Charles Pengelley, Esq. ; and the Chamberlain,
Captain George. On entering the hall, her Majesty
and the Prince seemed extremely gratified by its
noble appearance—the ancient and modern standards,
the portraits of the founder, King Charles 11., the
great Duke of Ormonde, and other worthies cele-
brated in history.
From the ball her Majesty, the Prince, and suite
proceeded to the chapel door, where they were met
and conducted by the chaplain, the Rev. John Con-
nell, formerly a captain in the regiment of her royal
father. The beautiful ceiling, the great eastern win-
dow, and the unrivalled carved altarpiece, by the re-
nowned Grinling Gibbons, with the various coats of
arms in stained glass, attracted particular notice. His
Royal Highness the Prince inquired by whom the
stained glass work was executed, and seemed pleased
to hear that it was the work of an Irish artist, named
O'Connor. After the visit to the chapel her Majesty
and Prince Albert next inspected the faithful veterans
of her Irish soldiery, who were drawn out with their
respective captains to render due honour; and truly
it was a touching sight to behold these rugged war-
riors—upon almost every breast a medal indicative
of their service—beaming with loyal delight as
their gracious Queen passed along their ranks, re-
warding them with her smiles for all their past hard-
ships. Her Majesty next signified her desire of
visiting the soldiers' rooms, and taking Prince
Albert at once by tile arm, proceeded to the nearest,
attended by the adjutant, Captain Hort. Having
minutely looked it over, she addressed the following
words to the men :—" lam glad, indeed, to see you
all so very comfortable."
A brief visit to the Master's apartments, where her
Majesty was received by Lady Blakeney, closed this
interesting scene.

Since I began this letter the afternoon has par•
tially cleared up, and the Queen has again set forth
for a drive through the city, the royal party being
this time.conveyed in a couple of open carriages and
four, attended by outriders. Their reciption has
everywhere been frank, cordial, and respectfully en-
thusiastic.

To-morrow the levee% takes place at the Castle,
and all, the upper and quasi-upper classes, are
striving and struggling, w4h might and main,
after the means of rigging 'themselves out in
court suits, girding their manly waists with court
sjvords, and, thus adorned, paying their respects
fro her Majesty. The Ikea- and gentlemen
of Dublin are essentially •a. court-going genera-
tion, and upon occasions like the present their loyal
tendencies burst forth in lull blow. I warrant there
has been a grand overhauling of old family brocades
and ancient jewels going on in Dublin during the last
few days. There are, I believe, only eight ladies in
the capital who have the privilege of presenting at
Court, and every one of the fair chaperones has, it is
said, at least one hundred proteges sheltered beneath
her ample wing.
I m,ntioned in my first letter the number of court
suits and appendages displayed in the shop-windows.
The advertising columns of the newspapers contain
tempting announcements of jewels to be sold or hired ;
and the tribe of tailors and milliners are, I am told,
plying their needles night and day. The latter useful
class of ladies are indeed much occupied in getting
up fac-similes of the dress worn by her Majesty on
her landing, for the leaders of the Dublin fashions do
not, I fear, pretend to be influenced by anything but
secondhand inspiration ; and there is a story told of
them which would seem to warrant the imputation.
Once upon a time the daughter of a Lord-Lieutenant,
who loved to be somewhat particular, not to say
eccentric, in dress, made her appearance in a black
velvet bonnet with an immense white plume. In a
week the streets of Dublin were dotted with black
velvet bonnets with immense white plumes.
.1 subjoin the following additional pieces of infor.
mation connected with her Majesty's stay in Dublin.
ADDRESSES TO HER MAJESTY.
At the levee to-morrow addresses from the follow-
ing bodies will be presented to her Majesty :
Address from the clergy of the Established Church.
Address from the Roman Cathode clergy.
Address from the Presbyterian clergy.
Address from Trinity College.
Addresses from the Dublin Corporation, the Lime-
rick Corporation, &c., will also be presented.
A grand dinner party will take place this evening
at the Viceregal Lodge. It is expected that about
200 persons will be present.
STATE OF PUBLIC FEELING.

Active and general preparations are being made
for the approaching levee. Numbers of persons are
flocking in from all parts of the country, and court-
dresses, &c., are objects of peculiar attraction. All
classes seem animated by the most fervent desire
to impress her Majesty with a favourable opinion re-
garding this country, and to insure future visits by
the gratitude they display for her present one. I
have been a good deal through the city during the
last two days, and have endeavoured to collect in

thata
has been much tempered by recent misfortunes, the
mention of the Queen's name is sure to evoke a spark
of the joyous feeling of old. It must be admitted,
however, that loyalty alone is not the cause of all the
enthusiasm which has been displayed since her Ma-
jesty's arrival. To people who have been only accus-
tomed to view the dark side of things, and to feel the
pressure of adverse circumstances, the change in
affairs resulting from the impetus given to trade
is most cheering. Then they hope that the Queen
will visit them soon again, and in short, that "there
is a good time coming." The Dublin carmen, a
peculiar class, have been considerable gainers on
this occasion. I understand that some of them de-
manded and received for the use of their vehicles
last night the sum of ten shillings an hour. The
illuminations passed off with great eclat, and there
seems to be a disposition to repeat them this evening.
The following list contains the names of the guests
at the Viceregal Lolge yesterday :—His Royal High-
ness Prince George of Cambridge, Vicounte:.s Jocelyn,
the Lord Primate, the Lord Chancellor and Mrs.

Brady, the Marquis of Lansdowne' the Duke and
Duchess of Leinster, the Marquis ofßreadalban?, the
Marquis of Headfort, the Marquis and Marchioness

Mr. Corry Connellan; Captain Bagot, aide-de-camp

In the evening the Marquis of Ormonde, Sir W.
Somerville, and all the members of the
Viceregal
household and staff, joined the royal party.
This evening about two hundred of the nobility and
gentry will be received by their Excellencies the
Lord-Lieutenant and the Countess of Clarendon, to
inert her 11Iajesty the Queen and Prince Albert, at
the Viceregal Lodge.

THE QUEEN'S VISIT' TO BELFAST.
The Bane of Ulster gives the following pro-
gramme in anticipation of the royal visit to the ca-
pital of the north
On and near the spot where her Majesty will first
set foot on the soil of her loyal province of Ulster,
tie preparations for giving her such a welcome as is
due to a Sovereign 50 universally beloved are in a

forwardness which gives a tolerable idea of ''''' '",,,,
\\\
dorm, style, taste, and accommodations of the l'•'''. ;:,
various erections intended for her reception, and for
,;i.--rrl„ •-•
;at of the different civic bodies, their friends, and the 4:t..--4, .
,blic. We had, at the date of our last notice, some `; ltii ?. I.
Loubts, from the extent of these arrangements, and. ..,,- 'l'
:he comparatively slow rate at which they were pro-
,;.>:,
gressing, that they would scarcely be completed in '. .
sufficient time ; they have since then, however, been---i.Sk.4 •
pushed forward with more vigour; and last evening
the reception pavilion, the triumphal arch, and the
various galleries for the spectators were all but
finished.

The decorations of the royal arch are conceived
in the purest taste, and their execution is equal
to the design. The structure, which is of the
Doric order, is peculiarly chaste. The arch itself
is of the Roman shape, and corresponds with
those of the pavilion. It is supported by massive
butresses, somewhat broader at the base than at the
springing of the curve. On the faces of these are four
panels, intended to be embellished, in gilt characters,
with the cyphers of her Majesty and her Royal Con-
sort. Up to the cornice the fabric will have a close
resemblance to a beautiful veined Sicilian marble, of
a pea•green shade. The frieze and entablature are
painted to imitate the l urea architectural marble.
The whole will be surmounted by appropriate flags.
The royal standard, St. George's cross, and union
jack, will be unfurled from a staff erected on the
parapet facing towards the river; on the opposite
side will float a banner bearing the Belfast arms, and
alSo some other flags. The St. George's cross was
displayed from the building yesterday, signifying that
her Majesty is at present in Ireland. 'the arch
somewhat resembles the centre of Temple-bar,
London. It is a fitting substitute for the gates of a
town which possesses none. here the ceremony of
presenting her Majesty with the civic keys will take
place.
The pavilion will be in keeping with the other erec-
tion in exterior appearance; the interior, however,
will be fitted up in a style of suitable magnificence.
Here her Majesty will be met by the civic bodies and
other privileged persons, if she do not prefer receiving
them aboard the royal tender or yacht. It is not yet
known whether the various addresses (which will
not be read) will be presented on board the yacht, in
the pavilion, or in the hall of Queen's College. On
the floor of the pavilion, and on the space between it
and the river side, carpeting will be laid down. It
is said that the entire interval between the pavilion
and the arch, about 300 yards, will also be carpeted.
The front of the old Custom-house, which, by the
w•ay, has received a coat of paint for the first time
since it reared its humble walls on the bank of the
Town dock, is being charitably concealed behind
a lofty gallery, intended for the friends of the town-
council.

In front of the Harbour-office accommodation has
been secured for the friends of the commissioners on
a platform there. The two great galleries at Victo-
ria►street are completely covered with white, blue,
pink, and yellow cotton cloth, arranged in alternate
perpendicular stripes at the back. If fully occu-
pied, the sum realised for seats, at ss. each, will be
1,143/. 15s.
The Harbour Commissioners have all their arrange-
ments nearly perfected. The Queen's Island, where
fireworks, bonfires, batteries, &c., will be called into
requisition, will be thrown open to the public at a
very moderate charge ; an opportunity of witnessing
the royal progress up the bay, of which, we are sure,
many hundreds will avail themselves. One-half of
the artillery from Charlemont will be stationed on
the island—the rest, with their guns, on Queen's-
quay, opposite to the landing place.
The Linen Hall is being rapidly put in order for
the royal reception ; and we learn that the specimens
cf flax manufactures to be exhibited are likely to be
very numerous and beautiful. Of damasks, especially,
several of the most magnificent productions of the
Belfast loom are in preparation. Mr. Coulson, of
Lisburn, the oldest manufacturer in the kingdom, has
proceeded to Dublin to exhibit a beautiful piece of
damask to her Majesty and her Royal Consort.
Mr. Robert Henderson, with his usual spirit, in-
tends to place as many as possible of his splendid fleet
of steamers at the service of the public, for an excur-
sion down the Lough on the day of her Majesty's
arrival. We hope that, should her Majesty visit the
Giant's Causeway—which is probable, as it would
not be far out of her way on her passage to Scotland
—these vessels will be allowed to follow the royal
squadron.

HER MAJESTY'S VISIT TO GLASGOW.
.(From the Glasgow Daily Mail.)
The enthusiasm evoked by the first announcement
of her Majesty's intention to visit Glasgow continues
to be well sustained. Instead of abating, it seems to
grow in fervour as we near the period when the
auspicious event is to occur. That event forms now
the all engrossing theme of discourse amongst our
citizens of every rank and grade. All are full of it.
Preparations for its proper celebration have been
cminnenced in earnest, and go briskly forward.
The erection of the triumphal arch at the
eastern end of the Broomielaw Bridge has
been begun. The design is very tasteful and
magnificent, and the completion of the structure will
take no long time for its accomplishment. Great
actNity is manifest there as well as at the works
which are in progress cn the south end of the quay.
At the latter place, the formation of the contemplated
" barricades" is proceeding. It will be observed that
Mr. M'Ara, at the municipal police committee, ex-
pressed his strong aversion to the name; and several
parties, who seemed possessed with a mistaken notion
regarding the objects they are intended to promote,
have vented to us their complaints against the thing.
Both parties arellwe think, in error. The name is
nothing ; but the contrivance we esteem a good one,
and feel assured it will be found of much utility. It
will be noticed in our report of that meeting, also,
that the Lord Provost, in answer to a question put to
him, communicated some interesting information as
to the projected route through the city. Of course,
an uncertainty which, as was explained, is felt re-
garding the station to which her Majesty will repair
on her departure, prevents us from ascertaining that
the line of progress sketched by his Lordship is
" fixed ;" but we think there is every probability it
will be held by, and we are sure our readers will
coincide with us when we pronounce it vastly prefer-
able to the one formerly proposed. The arrangement
by which the entire conduct of the preparations
has been confided to the magistracy is a good
and wise one. We are sure our civic rulers will
worthily employ the powers entrusted to them,
and are certain that they will devise such
regulations, as that, while in the display on
the occasion, her Majesty will have proper and due
respect shown her, the credit of the city will be main-
tained, the loyalty of the citizens gratified, and their
safety provided for. All we feel concerned about is,
that they should be matured and promulgated early.
Her Majesty's movements are gone about with cele-
rity. That fact has been established on her former
tours as well as on the present occasion. It would be
wise, therefore, to guard against the possibility of
surprise. It is by no means unlikely that the rumours
current as to the time of the arrival in the Clyde will
be falsified by the result. Prince Albert, it is well
know, is a keen sportsman. Why should he not be in
the Highlands on the thh ? That is quite practi-
cable; and what if it should be thought of and car-
ried out?

TO CORRESPONDENTS.
"r'hilo-Ililagyar."—As it is quite impossible that we
can tell by instinct what has been contributed towards
the Testimonial elsewhere than to ourselves—our cor-
respondent, and others similarly situated, must make
allowances for any such delay in publication. We
may observe that immediately the Committee can
obtain the complete list of those who have transmitted
contributions to the different bankers, that complete
list will be published in our columns with the rest of
the subscriptions.
" Hungary."—We have received numerous communica-
tions asking us to define the best road to Hungary,
to explain the chances of promotion in the Magyar
army, to mention the pay of officers serving under the
orders of Dembinski, and to supply other trifling little
scraps of information. Really, our correspondents must
excuse us for remaining silent. To answer all such mis-
cellaneous inquiries would be somewhat incompatible
with the incessant and diurnal labours of a journalist.
