THE QUEEN IN DUBLIN.

(BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.)
DUBLIN,- 'WEDNESDAY NNIGHT.
This morning, at nine o'clock, an inspection of the
regiments of cavalry quartered is Dublin took place
in Phenix park, in presence of his Royal Highness
Prince Albert, who appeared on horseback, and was
much ch ered by the admiring crowds. At 1 o'clock
her Maj,sty, accompanied by his Royal Highness
Prince Albert and the royal suite, left the Vice-
Regal Lodge to hold a levee at ie Castle. The
entrance to the park and the whole carriage drive
were lined by well dressed groups, who most con.
dially saluted her Majesty as the royal carriage
passed. The bridges and quays on both banks of the
Liffey were crowded from twelve o'clock with ex-
pectant spectators of the cortege, and every street in
Dublin through which it had to pass presented an
animated throng, who vociferously applauded her
Majesty and the Prince. Carriages commenced
setting down gentlemen who bad the entree before
noon, and a long succession continued to pour
forth their gaily attired occupants till half-past on',
when the loud shouts of loyal acclamations from
those assembled without aneounced to those within
the Castle walls that her Mi.jesty approached. The
military immediately presented arms; the band
of the Enniskilleners struck up the National Anthem;
the dragoon escort rode into the quadrangle at si
dashing pace, and the royal carriage drove to the
state entrance amidst repeated bursts of enthusiastic
applause.

Her Majesty, attended by the Prince Consort, Sir
George Grey, the Marquis of Lansdowne, Earl For-
tescue, the Marquis of Breadalbane, and the other
officers of state, then held a Court.

Seven addresses were presented to her Majesty
and answers returned, which, with the presentations
to the number of 1,981 names, we must reserve till
to. morrow.

Nothing could exceed the rejoicing enthusiasm of
her Majesty's reception everywhere this day.
The review and drawing-room _ take place to-
morrow.

Her Majesty will lunch on Friday with the Duke
of Leinster, at Carton, about 14 miles from Dublin,
and return to Phoenix Park in the afternoon, and
proceed thence on board the Royal yacht for Belfast
and Scotland the same evening.

REPRESENTATION OF KIDDER-

DIIN STEM.

KIDDERMINSTER, WEDNESDAY.—A host of persons
have been named in various quarters as candidates
for the representation of this borough, vacated by the
unexpected decease of the late lamented Member,
Mr. Godson. The event has caused considerable ex-
citement here, and speculation is very busy as to his
successor. In all probability there will be a strong
contest for the vacant seat, seeing that it has been
very closely contested at every election except
the last, since it was created a borough on the passing
of the Reform Act. Sir W. Winnington, Bart., late
M. P. for Bewdley, Thomas Gisborne, Esq., late
M.P. for Nottingham, the Hon. Spencer Lyttletoe,
Mr. Samson Ricardo (who contested the borough
with Mr. Godson in 1841), Mr. J. H. Palmer, of the
Chancery Bar, and in all likelihood others, whose
names have escaped notice, have been named as can-
didates on the Liberal interest.

In the Conservative interest rumour bas been.
equally busy with the following:—Mr. John.
Bre, son of Mr. W. B. Best, of the Oxford Circuit ;
Mr. W. H. Cooke, of the same circuit ; Mr. J. S.
Lea, the Hon. Captain Carnagie, formerly M.P. for
Stafford • the Hon. Dudley Ward, and " though
last, not least," Mr. James Quin, a resident umbrella
maker or mender, who, in an address, denounces
" deceptive Whiggery—the political curse of the
nation, who are but wolves in cheeps' clothing."
Notwithstanding this imposing array of rumoured.
candidates, Mr. John Best is the only one who has
as yet announced himself; and he is to address the
electors this evening, but it is doubted whether the
terms upon which he will allow himself to be put in
nomination will be acceptable to a majority of the
electors. It is understood that Mr. Best has been
presented with a requisition soliciting him to become
a candidate.

At a preliminary meeting of the Liberal electors,
held at the Black Horse Inn, yesterday evening, it
was resolved unanimously—" That Thomas Gisborne,
Esq., from his long Parliamentary experience, and
from his well-known and proved opinions on the sub-
jects of free trade and financial reform, is a fit and
proper person to represent this borough in Parlia-
ment." In accordance with the resolution, a requi-
sition to that gentleman was drawn up and signed by
the electors present. Air. Gisborne formerly sat for
Derbyshire ; he is a Reformer of the Hume and
Cobden school.

The constituency cf Kidderminster numbers up-
wards of 500, and is pretty equally divided between
Whig and Conservative.

EMIGRATION TO NATAL.
On Tuesday the Dreadnought sailed from Gravesend
with 120 cabin, intermediate, and steerage passengers !or
Port Natal, being the third vessel dispatched this season
for that rising colony, by Mr. J. C. Byrne, since he ob-
tained those concessions from the Emigration Commis-
sioners that have enabled him to confer land in the ratio
of passage money, a steerage passenger acquiring
twenty acres for 101., priority of choice being se-
cured according to the date of entrance on each
ship's books. Originally Mr. Byrne was restricted by
Government to the location of five hundred settlers;
but the manner in which he sent out his first two ships,
the respectability, intelligence, and comparative affluence
of the passengers, and their general eligibility for the
colony, so favourably impressed the Commissioners, that
they have extended the concession so as to embrace 2,000
adults; and there is little question that the same
liberality on the part of the home executive will so.
company the reception here of each succesive
report from the authorities in the colony, similar to those
that have reached us since the publication of Governor
Sir P. Maitland's communication to Lord Stanley, is
March, 1846. The Dreadnought is an entirely new
vessel, never having been at sea before, and is expressly
built and fitted up to ply between London and Natal.
She more resembles a private yacht than an ordinary
emigrant vessel; and space is so economised by the in-
troduction of all the most modern improvement in the
shape of patent ventilating, cooking, and other appoint-
ments, that the passengers enjoy a degree of accommo-
dation attainable only in the largest and most expensive
sailing packets. The classification is most complete.
Each compartment has an infirmary, and all domestie
requirements to itself, adapted to either sex; and hot and
cold baths are available at the discretion of the doctor,
whose surgery is on a scale seldom observable in a mode-
rate sized vessel, though there is little apparent present
necessity for such unused precaution, as a more healthy
set of emigrants, whether men, women, or children,
could not be seen. They are of a very superior class,
of capital, in goods or money, that would be regarded as
very considerable in a corresponding rank of American
in their respective stations, the humblest being possessed
even Australian emigrants. They were in the best
or
possible spirits on their departure at the prospect before
them, animated by the expectancy of equalling in pros.
perity those that had preceded them, and stimulated by
the assurance that large numbers of their countrymen
are about to follow in regular and rapid succession; for
already the next vessel on the station is, to a consider-
able extent, engaged fur passage and freight, the latter
chiefly consisting of agricultural implements, of which .
the Dreadnought en Tuesday took out a great deal, as
well as mechanics' tools, and general merchandise. Pre.
vious to sailing, Mr. Byrne, according to the excellent
custom he has adopted, entertained the passengers at
Pallister's Falcon Hotel, Gravesend, and having given
them a résumé of the latest information from Natal, in-
cluding the actual condition of the emigrants whose pro-
ceedings had been reported upon, be addressed some
admirable instructions and advice as to their conduct
during their voyage and on their arrival, inculcating
obedience to the captain and the surgeon, as the first
essentials to their own safety and comfort, and enforcing
the observance of morality and decency in words and
de-
portment, both on their own account, and for te

the best colony for emigration in the British dominions.

REPRESENTATION OF WEST SURREY.—GiILD•
FORD, W EDNESDAY.—A new candidate for the repro.
sentation of the western division of the county of Surrey,
has appeared in the person of Mr. Thurlow, a gentleman
who previously was the unsuccessful candidate for Guild.

those held by Mr. J. J. Briscoe, whose address is already
before the electors. There appears to be a very cons'•
derable doubt on the subject of Mr. Freshfield's be.
coming a candidate. The Protectionists are canvassing
in his behalf with great zeal, but Mr. Freahfield hag
made no official announcement of his intentions.
Shaw, of the dlark•lane Express, has been spoken of,
but it is quite uncertain at present whether he will start.
Both parties are resolved to put out their whole strength,
so that a keen contest may be anticipated.
M. Armellini, a member of the Roman Trium-
virate, has arrived in Belgium, where he has received ail
pthoriaation to reside. His wife is a Belgian.
