It is now defi
the Queen shah

arrive at Fleetwood to-morrow (Sunday) night. She
would leave Ardverikie with the two royal children
yesterday afternoon, and was expected to arrive at Fort
William about six o'clock. Her Majesty would embark
either in the royal yacht or the Fairy, but the officers
did not expect that a distance further than Lismore or
Oban could be accomplished the same evening. This
morning the royal party proceed to the Crinan Canal,
and will move through the artificial water in the royal
barge, as upon the occasion of the arrival. In the
meantime, the Black Eagle and Undine steamers
will have proceeded round the mull of Kintyre to
await the arrival of the royal party at Lough-
ghilphead, on the other side of the canal, from which
the Black Eagle will convey them that day as far
as Campbell-town, in Argyleshire, where anchor will
be cast for the night. Although her Majesty is not
desirous of proceeding on Sunday, the officers are of
opinion that in order to reach Fleetwood in a favour-
able tide, the remainder of the journey must be
accomplished during that day. An official notifica-
tion has been received at Fleetwood that the Queen
will arrive at that port at six o'clock, that being the
hour of flood tide, and the royal squadron is to anchor
in the bay, the Queen and her royal consort re-
maining on board all night. On Monday morn-
ing, at eight o'clock, her Majesty will land, and
proceed direct to London by special train.
The train is now in readiness, and consists of the
royal carriage, the carriage of the Queen Dowager,
and two new six-wheeled carriages, four car-
riage trucks, and two luggage vans, belonging to the
North-Western company. The royal train will
proceed from Fleetwood via Preston, Parkside, and
Crewe, to Stafford, where it will leave the line of
rails and pass over the new Trent Valley line, arriv-
ing in London about three o'clock in the afternoon.
Her Majesty, it is said, will proceed thence imme-
diately by the South-Western line to Southampton,
and reach the Isle of Wight the same evening.
We are informed that the Lancashire and Yorkshire
Railway Company are providing every accommoda-
tion in their power for visitors at Fleetwood. A list
of beds and accommodation at Fleetwood not yet
taken up is made out, and on personal application at
the station there, visitors will be directed where to
find these places. It is expected that the Irish, Scotch,
and Isle of Man steamers will make up near 250 beds
for the accommodation of such parties. The royal
squadron, consisting of six large steamers, on Mon-
day morning, after her Majesty's departure for
London, will sail out of port, and it is expected will
form a spectacle for the visitors second only to the
sight of it on Sunday night, when entering the bay

THE QUEEN'S VISIT TO LANCASHIRE.

(From the Lancaster Guardian of Saturcia;)—
Official intimation reached Fleetwood on Thursday,
that the royal squadron might be expected to arrive
in the Wyre, about six o'clock on Sunday evening.
Our Fleetwood correspondent, to whom we are in-
debted for this intelligence, further states that her
Majesty's debarkation will not take place until the
following morning, when she will proceed direct to
London by special train.
All the steamers belonging to Fleetwood that are
in port will sail to meet and accompany the royal
yacht. Amongst these, by a happy coincidence, will
be, " Her Majesty," and " The Prince of Wales," the
former plying regularly to Ardrossan, the latter to
Belfast.

At a public meeting of the inhabitants of Fleetwood,
on Monday last, an address to the Queen was unani-
mously adopted, :and Sir Hesketh Fleetwood, Bart.
appointed to present it. The gentlemen deputed
to accompany Sir Hesketh are the Rev. St. Vin-
cent Beechy ; Frederick Kemp, Esq. ; Daniel Elliot-
son, Esq., and James Crombleholme, Esq. The High
Sheriff of the county palatine, William Gale, Esq., of
Lightburne House, Ulverston, proceeded to Fleet-
wood on Tuesday, to attend upon her Majesty during
her stay in the duchy.
The preparations making by the railway com-
pany, and the authorities, for the reception of the
illustrious visitor, are on a very comprehensive
scale.

(FROM A CORRESPONDENT.)
INVERNESS, SEPT. 17.

His Royal Highness Prince Albert visited our
quiet little town yesterday at five o'clock .as. He
was met on the north bank of the river Ness, about a
mile from town, by the magistrates and the six incor-
porated trades, with a large body of people, all in
marching order. As soon as the signal was given
that he was in sight a royal salute of 21 guns was
fired from cannon placed on the castle hill. The
procession marched, with bands of music in front, to
the town-ball, where he was presented with an
address, and after visiting the castle hill he returned
to Dochfour House to dine with a select party, and
remain there for the night.

The Northern Meeting is held here this week, in
consequence of which the town is very gay.

THE NEW GOVERNOR 01' THE CAPE —Sir Harry
Smith is still detained at Portsmouth by the non-arrival
of the Vernon; but as the weather has been moderate all
the day, it is probable she will be able to get up to Spit-
head this evening. A requisition having been made to
Sir Harry to inspect the battalions of artillery and in-

officers of the establishment, and
the wharf where the battalion was drawn up. The men
were then put through a variety of manoeuvres, and Sir
Harry expressed much satisfaction in observing so highly
efficient a body of men. At the conclusion the officers
and men gave him three cheers, and, attended by his
staff, he left the yard.
THE CRICKET STEAM-VESSEL.—We stated last
week that the Admiralty had ordered the machine for
testing boilers at Woolwich to be lent to Mr. Smith, to
test the boilers of the ill-fated steamer Cricket. We
understand that the test has been applied, and with the
most satisfactory results, as affecting the manufacturer
of the boilers, for it resisted a pressure of no less than
1451 b. to the square inch.

(the Prince of Canino, son of Lucien as made him-

the mission of the Roman civic guard, to compliment
the Ambassadors of Sardinia and Tuscany with ac-
clamations and serenades. Throughout the dominions
of the glorious Pius IX. nothing can equal the cou-
rage of the population except its admirable order.
The Grand Duke of Tuscany, though an Arch-Duke
of Austria, has thrown aside the Austrian cockade,
and adopted the national colours. In the Austrian
part of Italy, as we feared, great tumults are mo-
mently apprehended, especially in Milan, although
garrisoned by 18,000 Austrians. It is even expected
that the liberal states of Italy, and the cantons of
Switzerland, will not be restrained from assisting the
revolters against the Austrians. If so, the whole of

from Paris as declining to interfere, although Lord
Normanby has positively
declared that England will
not permit Austria to coerce the independent .
Italy Italian
States; while other accounts from itself state
that France will con-cur with Enland
Ancona and Civita Vecchia. Thatg

the announcement, to us almost incredible,
even
Austrian fatuity and insolence, that in eve

city oof
every
Italy, in which a National Guard is organised,
Austria is determined to have a garrison. This must
bring the contest to the issue of arms, if some acci-
dental collision have not done so already where all
parties are eager to engage. The affairs of Spain,
important as they would be at any other time, are
principally of consequence now, as they serve to com-
plicate the great contest which is raging in Italy
between liberty and slavery, between the rights of
separate races and the wrongs of foreign masters
to whom the infamous Holy Alliance consigned
them. Narvaez is said to have received un-
limited supplies of money from :Paris, with
equally unlimited authority to dispense orders and
honours, and, as the army is reported still to be
under his influence, he is expected to re-establish
his dictatorship as Lieutenant for Louis Phillippe, by •
an armed rising. That Louis Philippe should be
eager to add this crime to his long catalogue is not
surprising, inasmuch as the fruits of all his previous
misdeeds are escaping from him. The Salic Law
may probably be re-established by the Cortes, and
the female succession to Queen Isabella, by which
her sister, the Duchess de Montpensier would reign,
would thus be cut off. Louis Philippe is, of course,
looking to the dynasty, instead of the interests and
feelings of France, and although the army in the
south of his dominions is reinforced under the plea of
watching Italy and Spain alike, there can be no
doubt as to the side on which its march will be di-
rected under the Citizen-King's orders. Abd-el-
Kader too is giving the French further employment,
and their monarch, therefore, another excuse for
inaction in Italy, by effecting the conduct of Mo-
rocco, and threatening the most formidable war on
the frontiers of Algiers. The quantity and necessity
of these events leaves us but one word for
comment. England cannot remain neutral in a
contest in which another nation is to be, without
pretence of right, utterly crushed and for ever
abandoned to slavery, to the demoralization of
misrule. England must sue Italy, and the
more speedily and decidedly she acts, the more
cheaply, easily, and effectually she will succeed.
Daring is often the most solid prudence. If we
speak, we must be ready to strike ; and if we strike,
the blow must be such as to be felt. This is mercy
as well as sense. No one will accuse the writers in
the Dispatch of a love for war. We curse before-
hand the unprincipled villainy that forces us to think
of resorting to it. But if we do fight, let it he for a
good purpose. Let us strike in the lever deep enough.
till the fulcrum on which it rests is the independence
of all races, and the rational freedom of all people.
We have seen this war of opinion coming, and no
other or less cause is worth a war—can plead pallia-
tion for its atrocious horrors, or will carry it to a
successful issue. The whole mischiefs of the despotic
settlements of 1816 must be undone. A new
balance of power must be erected, and its basis must
be the right of every people to rule its own land.
All compromise of this will leave the seed of further
strife ; this only can be the final adjustment of
Europe. Independence in Spain, Italy, Germany—
possibly, if Russian or Prussian despotism be mad
enough to come to the rescue of Austrian crime and
folly, even in Poland. A great, a fearful, an awful
era is approaching. God carry Britain through
it with integrity, courage, and honour ! Weekly
