TO TIIE LADISS..

This lady had the following letter inserted in the "Times" news-
paper on Aug. 7, 1846. Reader, remember, this letter was put into
the paper by the lady herself, as a testimony to me.
" Mrs. Weekley, of No. 3. Swan-street, Berough, takes this oppor-
tunity of publicly thanking Mr. W. Grimstone, of the Herbary, High-
gate for the efficacy of his Aromatic Regenerator, in having com-
pletely restored the hair on her head, after using it about four months.
and the whole of her hair is much stronger and more luxuriant than
I ever was before the baldness appeared.
" Mrs. Weekley inserts this testimony to the virtues of Mr. o.'s
Regenstor, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase
an I Is. bottle if they were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex-
perience, not only in the restoration and produotion of hair in abund-
ance, but as a cure of nervous headache; as a toilet pet-flame it Is far
beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasure in answering any
lady of respectability to the above fact:,-3, Swan-Street, Borough."
In cases of the hair becoming thin, weak, or turning grey, a few
drops on the crown of the head occasionally, every week, will pre-
vent the hair from coming away with the comb, make it strong, and
lrevent it turning grey, rendering the hair luxnriant and curly. A
few drops on your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the
hair brilliancy, causing it to curl. ••••• -
The most delicate ladies may use this delightful product of the
'nest aromatic herbs and flowers with confidence ; its refreshing
)(lour removes headache and makes it a most necessary companion
o the toilet. In cases of nevous headache, pour ten or twelve drops
the crown of the head; if ~•ry bad, repeat it every quarter of an
our. iesozZlie,to, tßinutes. It produces
vent convulsions, as well as promoting the growth of hair.—See
pamphlet of testimonials.
All letters addressed to William Grimstone Haber'', Highgate.

31 One half the world are desolately single, and the other
supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a
sense of right detertnone the former, and miscalculated hopes em-
bitter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea
of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un-
comprosing hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity,
ad broke health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness
and socialn content. The dowry should not be the only marriage set-
tlement. Honour and justice demand tkat health should form an item
in the compact ; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes or
neglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune. Reader, if

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.
PORTSMOUTH, TUESDAY.—Rear-Admiral Sir Charles
Napier, K.C.8.,
net Squadron, gave a sumptuous entertainment on board
80, Commander in-Chief of the Chan
the St. Vincent, at Spithead, last evening to Admiral Sir
Charles Ogle, Bart., Commander-in-Ibief of this port ;
Rear- Admiral Hyde Parker, C. 8., Superintendent of the
Dockyard ; Captain Pasco, of the Victory ;
Captain
Chads, of the Excellent ; Captain Sir James Stirling, of
the Howe ; Captain Lushington, of the Vengeance ;
Captain Milne, of the St. Vincent ; Captain the Hon.
D. Pelham, of the Odin ; Captain Dacres, of the Avenger;
and Captain Talbot, of the 'Vestal.
The Lily, 16, Commander Newton, will be paid off
this week if possible. Her dismantling will be com-
pleted on Thursday.
The 'Vestal, 26, Captain C. Talbot, sailed at 5 o'clock
this morning for Sheerness, to be paid off.
The Netley tender arrived with men from Devonport
last evening, and returned to-day with a number of su-
pernumeraries.

The proceedings in the Senate-house forming the
main feature of the installation, it will readily be be-
lieved that great efforts were made by those who hap-
pily had obtained tickets of admission to assert the claim
of first corners to the best seats; and they were neither
few nor far between who, nearly three hours Wore the
time appointed (ten o'clock) for the commencement of
the business, had congregated in serried ranks in front
of the Senate-house. The crowd having increased, the
doors were opened before eight o'clock, and such was the
rush, principally of ladies, who occupied all the raised
seats in the body of the house, and in the gallery
at the west end immediately above the throne,
that long before nine o'clock it was impossible
for the latter comers to obtain, not the comfort
able accommodation they had anticipated, but even
to stand on a window ledge or available aperture of
the building was quite out of the question. Many ladies
and gentlemen, albeit possessed of veritable vouchers
for what they considered good and secure positions, were
obliged to content themselves with seats on the lawn, in
trout of King's College, immediately adjoining the
Senate-house; where they might have the shadow of a
chance of catching a glimpse of the Queen and the
Prince Chancellor, and hearing in notes, by distant
made more sweet, the beautiful sympathies of the In-
stallation Ode. All this inconvenience arose, it should
in justice be stated, not from the want of proper arrange-
ments, but from what may be called the tyranny of cir-
cutnstances, so many persons being entitled to tickets
where the accommodation was necessarily so confined.
The side galleries were shortly after eight o'clock closely
packed by undergraduates. The contracted area in the
centre of the hall between the galleries which arose from
the floor on each side for the ladies was reserved for
masters of arts, fellows, and other members of the Univer-
sity, who were not fortunate enough to command tickets
for the elevated platform, on which were placed the
chairs of state. Through this densely thronged mass,
the Prince Chancellor and her Majesty had to pass, and
they only who stood the pressure for nearly three hours
can—and we do not wish others should—form an idea of
the inconvenient pressure which was sustained.
At nine o'clock the platform on the right and left of
the throne was filled ; the Earl of Hardwicke, Lord-
Lieutenant of the county ; the Bedels of the University ;
the Vice-Chancellor, the Heads of Colleges, the Prince
Waldemar of Prussia, Prince Lowenstein, the Duke of
Saxe Weimar, Chevalier Bunsen and lady, the Belgian
Ambassador and lady, the Duke of Buccleuch, the Mar-
quis and Marchioness of Northampton, the Mrrquis of
Lansdowne, the Earl of Devon, . Lord Campbell, Lord
Monteagle, the Bishop of London, the Bishop of Oxford,
the Bishop of St. David's, the Bishop of Norwich, the
Bishop of Melbourne, Sir Robert and Lady Peel, the
Vice-Chancellor of England, Mr. W. Y. Peel, Mr.
Goulburn, and Mr. Law, occupying prominent positions.
Up till nearly ten o'clock the undergraduates in the
gallery congratulated themselves on having taken pos-
session of the most convenient and commanding places
in the Senate•house. No cries were uttered, as is usual
on such occasions.
The Duke of Wellington arrived about a quarter be-
fore ten o'clock, and was received outside by the band
with " See the conquering hero comes," and inside the
walls of the Senate•house with the most tumultuous
applause.
At five minutes to ten a flourish of trumpets announced
the arrival of his Royal Highness the Prince Chancellor,
who, accompanied by his suite, and preceded by the
bedels, made his way up the centre of the Senate-house
amidst the most vociferous cheering of all the gentlemen,
and the waving of handkerchiefs by all the ladies pre-
sent. After acknowledging the salutations of the noble-
men and their ladies on either side of the platform, the
Prince Chancellor took his seat in the chair of state oa
the left of the throne.
The Prince wore his robes as Chancellor, with his
collar and badge, and remained with cap on head,
while the different prieomen recited their essays
before him.
About a quarter past ten o'clock the strains of
the National Anthem announced the (teen's approach,
when his Royal Highness, still wearing his doctor's cap,
and accompanied by the bedels and other authorities of
the University, proceeded down the centre of the
Senate-house to welcome her Majesty.
The Queen, received by the Prince Chancellor at the
entrance of the Senate-house, and accompanied by the
Earl of Fortescue and Colonel Phipps, walked up to the
dais, where both took their seats. Her Majesty wore a
white lace dress over pink silk, a white lace bonnet and
flowdrs,,wip straw colon rei gloves.
On the entrittee of her Majesty the wholeueompany
rose, and testified their enthusiasm by loud and consen-
taneous plaudits. With the exception of the Queen and
the Prince Chancellor all remained standing during the
remainder of the proceedings.
The recitation of the prise poems, which was in-
Aim:llin fiaiing rread. his essay, was conducted
by the Vice-Chancellor's Marshal up the steps of the
platform, and presented to the Prince Chancellor, who
delivered to him his prize.
The prizemen were, at the conclusion of their read-
ings, greeted by the cordial applause of their friends.
The recitation of the different prize poems occupied
till a quarter to 11, when the performance of the In-
stallation Ode, of which we printed a copy on Monday,
commenced.
The Ode, which was set to music by Professor Wal-
misley, was in many portions of it most loudly cheered.
In one of the solos a favourite air of the Prince Chan-
cellor was introduced, and in the portion referring to
Luther's life there was a marked resemblance in the
trumpet accompaniment to his celebrated hymn. The
first tenor solo, by Lockley, the contralto recitative, by
Miss Dolby, " But 10, what sudden cloud," the soprano
solo, by Miss Birch, the bass air, " Albert, in thy race
we cherish," by Phillips, and all the chorusses, elicited
warm and reiterated applause. The grand chorus, too,
drew down thunders of applause. Amidst the general
plaudits the National Afithem was called for, and sung
with heartstirring enthusiasm, the Prince Chanceller
joining in the chorus.
Her Majesty and the Prince immediately afterwards
left the Senate-house amidst universal acclamations.
Three cheers were afterwards given for the Queen, the
Prince Chancellor, the Prince of Wales, the Lord
Steward, the Duke of Wellington, the Bishops, Profes-
sor Walmisley, &c.
On leaving the Senate-house her Majesty retired to
her residence, Trinity Lodge.

THE FLOWER 5110 W.
One of those pleasing fashionable exhibitions took
place this day in the beautiful grounds of Downing
College. The fineness of the day, and the expectation
that the show would be graced by the presence of her
Majesty, contributed as much perhaps as the intrinsic
attractive character of the exhibition itself to bring a
large concourse of visitors together. About nine spa-
cious tents were erected in different parts of the ground,
within which the flowers and plants were arranged ;
military bands played for the entertainment of the com-
pany ; seats were placed beneath the trees for those who
were disposed to seek temporary repose or shelter from
the scorching rays of the sun, and many who could not
obtain seats stretched themselves on the grass, forming,
as they were seen from various points, pretty Watteau-
like groups.
Her Majesty and Prince Albert, attended by her
suite, and accompanied by the Duke of Wellington, ar •
rived at the show about three o'clock. Her Majesty
and the Prince walked over the grounds, attended by
Mr. Ashton, the secretary, and entered every tent in
which flowers were displayed ; it is unneccessary to say
that acclamations resounded wherever they appeared.
After remaining in the grounds about three-quarters of
an hour, and accepting a beautiful bouquet from Mrs.
Ashton, her Majesty, Prince Albert, and the whole of
their suite, withdrew into the house of the Master of
Downing College, where they partook of refreshment,
and the Queen was pleased to express her gratification
at what she had seen. Sir Robert Peel, Lord John
Russell, and man?, other persons remained conversing
beneath the portico of the Master's house, whilst the
Queen was engaged inside. Shortly after the Queen
left they also departed.
In addition to the distinguished persons already men-
tioned, we observed on the grounds the Duke of Nor-
folk, the Marquis of Abercorn, Prince Waldemar, Prince
Peter of Oldenburgh, Mr. Baron Parke, Mr. H. Howard,
and Lady M. Howard, Ex.
THE DINNER IT TRINITY.
The invited guests began to arrive shortly after five
o'clock. When all had assembled, the appearance of
