HER MAJESTY'S CRUISE.

FALMOUTH, SEPT. s.—This place has been one con-

tinued scene of bustle, excitement, and pleasure for the
entire of the week. On Monday the Royal Cornwall
Regatta came off; and on Wednesday, Thursifoy, and
Friday, the annual exhibition of the Royal Coi:nwall
Polytechnic Society took place, each bringing to the
town and neighbourhood a great influx of company from
all quarters. Very interesting as both these objects
have proved in themselves to one and all, they have fallen
short of the still greater excitement caused by the
arrival of her Majesty last evening in the Victoria and
Albert yacht, accompanied by the Black Eagle, Gar-
land, and Fairy steem-vessels. Sudden as was the
event, it was not altogether unexpected, owing to two
Government messengers having reached the Royal
Hotel early in the morning, which, coupled with the in-
formation contained in the Loudon papers of the Queen's
departure from Osborne House on Wednesday for Jersey
and the westward, led the inhabitants to conclude an im—
mediate second visit. Preparations were hastily made
to give her Majesty as welcome a reception as possible„
and on the vessels making their appearanze at about
half-past six last evening, a royal salute was fired from
the garrison of Pendennis and from her Majesty's
packet Crane, the only man-of-war in port. On anchor-
ing in the roads the Mayor and corporation of the town,
attended by the sergeants-at-mace, embarked in a barge
prepared for the occasion, and were soon alongside the
royal yacht, at that time surrounded by an immense
fleet of cutters, pilot sloops, pleasure and row boats,
amounting to more than 200, the parties in winch were
most loyal in their acclamations of welcome by' cheers,
&c. The Mayor (Mr. W. R. Broad) was immedjately
admitted on board, and presented, through the 1.-.ord
Chamberlain (Earl Spencer), an appropriate address
from the corporate body to her Majesty, who being:
then at dinner, was prevented from receiving the coun—
cil in person. The Mayor called again on board the
Victoria and Albert, at half-past seven o'clock this
morniii.and after an interview with Prince Albert
and Lortilia. Fitzolarence (prior to the yacht getting
under weigh for Penzance), he proceeded in his boat
to Truro personally to confer with the Mayor of that
town touching the measures to be adopted on Monday
next. According to arrangement the squadron left at
8 A.m. for Mount's Bay and the Scilly Isles, with an ill.
tention of returning here to-morrow evening, and calling
on Monday; on which day a pilot has been ordered to
take the Fairy up the River Fal, as far as Tregothaan,
the seat of the Earl of Falmouth, when the barge will
convey the illustrious party to Truro, where the inha-
bitants are making great preparations to give them a
splendid reception. On their return, the Prince pro-
poses honouring the Polytechnic Half with his presence,
and will afterwards go to the United Mines in Gwennap,
about eight miles distant from this. On leaving the
harbour under the proper salutes the steamers skirted
the western bay, and as the weather keeps remarkably
fine, her Majesty and family are likely to be much grati-
fied with their Land's-End cruise. Our town was par-
tially illuminated last night, and fireworks, balloons, and
torches were pressed into the service.
The squadron arrived here, after a passage of eleven
hours, from Jersey.
The Crane packet, for the Brazils, is detained until
Wednesday, the 9th instant.
