will probably be gratified at the temporary victory of the
bankists, as likely to lead to one of those final results, if
indeed they have not contributed to it themselves, Mr.
Woodbury, the ex- Secretary of the Treasury, endea-
voured to strike out the capital of $30,000,000, and leave
a blank in its place, and Mr. Wright opposed the power
given to Congress to increase the capital, but both these.
attempts were defeated, as well, as a motion likewise
brought forward by Mr. Wright fir preventing the Go-
vernment from becoming original subscribers. The Dis-
tribution Bill had passed the Representatives. The wish
for a general bankrupt law has been expressed in various
parts of the Union.
SUN.—The Corn market is still firm, although the arri
vals are plentiful. The speculators are looking for a reduc-
tion in the duty. No less than 38,000 quarters of foreign
wheat, and 7,180 sacks of flour are reported as having
been received.
The accounts from America by. the Britannia are
much the same as the previous ones in regard to mercan-
tile affairs, but short crops are spoken of.

THE ROYAL VISITS.
PANSHANGEII3 JULY 30.—The hour appointed for the
public to leave the park yesterday was seven o'clock, but ,
though the greatest decorum was observed throughout
the day, some difficulty was experienced in carrying this
order into effect from the strong anxiety felt by all pre-
sent to catch even a distant glimpse of their Sovereign,
whose gracious acknowledgements to the hearty acclama-
tions of her subjects was the theme of admiration.
At eight o'clock her Majesty and his Royal Highness
Prince Albert entered the splendid picture gallery, which
was fitted up as a temporary banqueting room, accom-
panied by the Earl and Lady Cowper, and the following
distinguished party :--
The Duke and Duchess of Sutherland, Marquis and
Marchioness of Clanrift-mrde, Earl and Countess De Grey,
Viscount and Viscountess Palmerston, Marquis of Se'As-
bury and Lady Mildred Cecil, Mr. mid Lady Mary
Vyner, Viscount Duncannon, Lord and Lady Ashley,
Marquis of Headfort, Dowager Lady Lyttehon, Hon.
Miss Cavendish, Mr. E. Anson, Colonels Buckley and
liouverie, &c.
The gallery in which the banquet was served contains
some splendid specimens of the old masters, amongst
which is a I-Tead of Christ, by Correggio ; an equestrian
portrait of Marshal Turenne, by Rembrandt ' • and other
great works of art from the pencils of Salvator Rosa,
Paul Veronese, Poussin, &c.
The Hertford band and glee-singers had the honour
of performing during the repast in a temporary orchestra
erected in the south window of the gallery.
Yesterday morning, at an early hour, her Majesty and
the Prince, wholly unaccompanied, walked through the
park of Panshanger to the village of Hertingfordbury,
one of the most picturesque in the county. It is gratify-
ing to say that though the Royal pair were necessarily
recognised by many persons who had had an opportunity
of seeing them on the previous kitty, an innate sense of
decorum induced them to abstain from any demonstration
of loyalty which would have violated the incognito which
it was so evidently wished to preserve.
At twelve o'clock the Mayor of Hertford, accompanied
by the clergymen, and a few of the inhabitants, were
honoured with an audience for the purpose of presenting
addresses, of which the following are copies :
" To the Queen's Most Excellent Majesty.
_ _

" We, your Majesty's dutiful and loyal subjects, the
Mayor, Aldermen, Councillors, Clergy, and inhabitants
of the borough of Hertford, impressed will sentiments of
profound regard, and animated with the mpst fervent and
zealous attachment to your Majesty, h: iil with delight
your Majesty's arrival, and humbly beg. leave to give.
expression to our joy and gratification at beholding your
Majesty's august presence in our immedia tee vicinity.
" At such a moment we are irresistibly reminded that
this neighbourhood, though not altogether unnoticed by
your Majesty's predecessors, is most inti mately asso-
ciated with recollections of that Monarch whose reig4i
occupies one of the most brilliant pages o 1 our annals,
and whom we now see restored to our eyes,. as regards
your Majesty's sex, as well as in that loftii tess of cha-
racter, that public virtue and peculiar fitness ter the high
situation you are ordained by Providence to fill, which so
commonly adorn your Majesty's Royal person.
" That the Almighty may be pleased to shower upon
your Majesty every blessing that your reign so auspici-
ously commenced, may be much prolonged, giving peace
and prosperity to an united and grateful people is the
prayer of your humble and devoted subjects."
To this address her Majesty was pleased to make the
following gracious reply, in a clear and distinct voice :
" I thank you for your loyal and affectionate address
upon the occasion of my visit to this part of the country.
" This vicinity naturally brings to mind the recollec-
tions
of the renowned Queen, to whose reign and charac-
ter you allude, and I humbly hope that the comparison,
which you draw may be justified by the event.
" I fervently join in the supplications to the Almighty-
for peace and prosperity, and for the general welfare and
happiness of my people."
The following address was then presented to Prince,
Albert:—
" To his Royal Highness Prince. Albert,
" May it please your Royal Highness—
"We, her Majesty's most dutiful and loyal subjects,
the Mayor, Aldermen, Councillors, Clergy, and inhabi-
tants of the borough of Hertford, in public meeting as-
sembled, beg leave respectfully to approach your Royal
Highness on the occasion of the visit of her Majesty and
your Royal Highness to this county and neighbourhood.
"We humbly avail ourselves of the opportunity thus
afforded to us of expressing to y our Royal Highness our
devoted loyalty to her Majesty the Queen, and of renew-
ing the homage of our unfeigned respect and attachment
to your Royal Highness ; and we ardently hope that your
Royal Highness may long live in health and happiness to
enjoy the attachment and devotion of all her Majesty's
subjects."
To which his Royal Highness condescended to make
the following gracious reply :
" I receive, with great pleasure, this kind address
hich you have just presented to me.
" Your loyal feeling to the Queen, which has prompted
you to come forward upon this occasion, is most gratify-
ing to me, and the hearty welcome which we have met
with on our visit to this part of the country will always
be a pleasing, recollection to us.
" I thank you sincerely for your good wishes."
This ceremony being completed—
His Royal Highness, accompanied by Earl Cowper,
Colonels Buckley and Bouverie, &c., proceeded on horse-
back to Brocket-hall.
At ten minutes past one, her Majesty, accompanied
by Lady Cowper, the Duchess of Sutherland, and suite,
stepped into Lady Cowper's carriage, drawn by four
splendid animals and followed by the distinguished
party in four carriages, and preceded by a party of the
South Herts Yeomanry, commanded by Lieutenant
Thornton, left the Park at a brisk pace, amidst the ve-
hement acclamations of the populace, who were ranged
in great numbers on each side of the carriage-road.
A more ardent demonstration of loyalty and attach

ment to the person of the Sovereign was never evinced
than that which greeted her Majesty the Queen through-
out the route. The peculiarly neat and picturesque vil-
lage of Welwyn presented a scene without parallel; every
dwelling, however humble, presented some appropriate
emblem, whilst three triumphal arches, erected across
the road, were conspicuous for the elegance and taste dis-
played in their construction, the pillars being covered
with a rich white silk, ornamented with a profusion of
the most beautiful flowers, supplied from the numerous
gardens in this luxuriant vicinity.
Having reached Brocket-hall, the beautiful mansion of
Lord Melbourne, her Majesty and Prince Albert, after
partaking of a luncheon, walked for some time about the
park, unrivalled perhaps for its picturesque beauties, ac-
companied by Lord Melbourry., and her suite, and at
four o'clock the Royal cortege was again formed for its
return to Panshanger, which they reached, amidst the
loud cheers of the people, at five o'clock.
The weather, which up to this period had been fine,
became suddenly overcast, rain falling heavily for some
time, which prevented her Majesty's walking in the plea-
sure grounds, which it was understood would otherwise
have taken place.
The dinner party this day was the same as Y esternin I 3,
with the addition of the Earl and Countess veruia,
Lord Mere, Mr and the Hon. Mrs. Brand.
The Royal party are expected to leave Panshangez to.
morrow (this day) at eleven o'clock for Windsor.

Three sailors of Dover rowed into Galway from
that port, a six-oar gig, 32 feet long, drawing seven
inches water. She arrived on Monday. The weather
during the voyage was rough, and how those brave tars
were enabled to cross the Channel is astonishing. The
gig is for R Mansergh St. George, of Ileadford, Esq.,
'and amidst the acclamations of an astonished multitude
was removed from the quay through the town, to Lough
Corrib.—Dublin paper.
