HER MAJESTY'S RETURN TO OSBORNE. GLOU-
CESTER, TUESDAY EVENING. Some rumours have
been circulated that her Majesty will travel on her re-
turn from Scotland by the London and North-Western
line, and so pass through the metropolis. This is incor-
rect, official information having been received that her
Majesty and the Royal Family will travel along the Mid-
land Railway, to its extremity at Gloucester, and thence
by the Great Western up to Basingbroke, where she
will get upon the South-Western line. The secretary of
the Bristol and Birmingham (Midland) Railway yester-
day had an interview with the mayor of Gloucester
(having received instructions for the special trains), to
confer with him as to the measures to be adopted for the
reception of the royal visitors on their arrival at the
Gloucester station. The Queen will leave Edinburgh on
Thursday next, and will travel thence as far as Derby
on that day. She will rest at Derby, and proceed on-
wards to Glocester on Friday morning. The royal
trains (for there will be two) will only stop once between
Derby and Gloucester, viz., at Eckington, a small village
station ce!ebrated for its fine water for engineering pur.
poses. Here the trains will stop for a few minutes to
take in water, and will then pass on to Gloucester,
about twenty -three miles further, without stopping
at Cheltenham or any intervening station. Her
Majesty may be expected to arrive at Gloucester by
noon, or early in the afternoon, and a short delay will
occur here in consequence of the break of gauge. At
Gloucester special trains will be in readiness on the
broad gauge, which will convey the Royal party up the
Cheltenham and Swindon branch of the Great Western,
on to the Great Western main line at Swindon, and
thence up to the Basingstoke junction, unless her
Majesty should decide to go on to Windsor. It is under-
stood, however, that her Majesty is very desirous of com-
pleting the journey to Osborne on Friday. At Glou-
cester to-day workmen are busily employed in painting
and furbishing up the old station approaches, which will
be put into as sightly a condition as circumstances will
permit. The platform for her Majesty's reception will
be laid with carpeting, and every convenience practicable
will be put into operation. To night a special meeting
of the Gloucester Corporation has been summoned by
the mayor, to take into consideration the best means of
showing the loyalty and attachment of the citizens to her
Gracious Majesty and her illustrious Consort. The
Queen does not go into the Birmingham station, but will
pass by way of Hampton, in order to avoid the ineonve-
hi,,nt " lift " from the Derby to the Birmingham level.
PEMBROKE ROYAL DOCKYARD.—During the late
visit of the Lords of the Admiralty to this establish-
ment t'ey directed that the new system of individual
payment of the dockyard wages, by the storekeepers,
shoull be put into operation on the Ist of October next;
and in tha interim the various clerks have been ordered

to proceed to Woolwich, in order that they may become
practically acquainted with the working of the system.
The coastguard of the district have been brought to the
Pembroke Dockyard by the Skylark revenue cutter, for
the purpose of instruction being afforded them in the use
of heavy artillery. The men are now undergoing a
course of drilling, and the ship gun battery erected for
the service of the Royal Dock; and Battalion has been
placed at their disposal. When sufficiently advanced in
the practice they will be instructed in cartridge firing.
It is proposed to convert the house at Hobb's Point,
formerly occupied by the agent of packets, into a garri-
son hospitsl. For this purpose a survey was made by
the Lords of the Admiralty during their late visit, but
no order as yet has been issued o❑ the subject. The
Royal Dockyard Battalion have become most efficient
under the able instructions of the officers appointed by
Government, and at their late field-day the various evo-
lutions were performed in a manner that elicited the
warmest approbation of the inspecting officer, Colonel
Sir Thomas Pasley.
SOUTH-WEST MIDDLESEX AGRICULTURAL SO-
CIETY.—The thirty-fifth annual meeting of the members
of this society took place yesterday at Southall, and was
attended by a large number of the influential residents
in the county. The society has for its object the
encouragement of good ploughing, and other agricultural
improvements, as well as giving rewards to servants for
good conduct and long service. In the morning a
ploughing match took place on the farms of Mr. M.
Sherborne and Mr. A. Welch, closely contiguous to the
Southall station of the Great Western Railway, and
priz ss haring been distributed, the proceedings, as usual
upon such occasions, wound up with a dinner at the Lion
Hotel, Southall. R. H. Cox, Esq., presided, and was
supported by Lord Robert Grosvenor, M.P., Captain
Cole, Arthur Wood, E,q., the Rev. Dr. Smith, J.
Cooper, Esq., E. Montgomery, Esq, and other magis
trates of the county. On the walls were many agricul-
tural devices, and the whole affair, indeed, was tastefully
arranged under the superintendence of Mr. Gotelee, of
Hounslow, the secretary of the society. The report,
presented by Mr. F. Sherborne, the treasurer, stated
that the rewards distributed to ploughmen during the
past year had amounted to 79/. 55., and to servants, for
long service, Sze., 1271. 135., making a total of 2071.
THE SANITARY STATE OF BIRMINGUAM.—It ap-
pears, that in consequence of the prevalence of cholera
in Coventry. the troops now quartered in the barracks of
that city are to be removed, and guard is to be kept by
detachments of infantry from Birmingham. These are
to be relieved by a fresh party from Birmingham every
seven or ten days, the others returning to their quarters
in the midland metropolis. The sanitary committee of
the Birmingham poor-law guardians have taken alarm at
this arrangement, and a deputation has been appointed
to wait upon Colonel Arbuthnot, the commandant of the
I district, to remonstrate with him upon the subject.
