ST. LEONARD'S, Nov. 4.

The journey of the Duchess of Kent and the Princess Vic-
toria from the Wells here has more resembled a triumphal
procession than any thing else to which I can compare it.
Every village—nay, almost every cottage on the whole line
of road, has exhibited some emblematical decoration expressive
of their feelings towards the illustrious travellers.

After leaving Tunbridge Wells, their Royal Highnesses
proceeded through Frant, Wadhurst, and Ticehurst, a new
line of road, I believe, but certainly a very pleasant one. At
each of these villages there was a profuse display of flowers
and shrubs round the several entrances to the cottages, or
whatever post could exhibit them to the greatest advantage.
It seemed, in fact, a gala day for all descriptions of persons,
adults and juveniles. At Wadhurst, the Castle (the residence
of Major Hailly) displayed the Royal Standard. The Queen's
Head Inn was also very tastefully ornamented with flowers
and shrubs, and there was a variety of home-spun flags dis-
played, manufactured for the occasion. At Ticehurst a tri-
umphal arch was erected across the road facing the Bell Inn.
The Crown Inn also exhibited a crown made of flowers, and
the several garden gates in the village were decorated with
charming bouquets. At John's-cross a variety of flags and
streamers gloriously fluttered in the breeze. At Watlington-
green, about 40 or 50 gentlemen and yeomen, principally
tenants of Sir Godfrey Webster, Bart., were drawn up on each
side the road, with white wands decorated with white satin
ribands, and formed an escort for the Royal party into the
venerable town of Battle, at the entrance of which was erected
a very handsome triumphal arch, covered with evergreens of
every description, with the Royal standard, &c. ; and on the
top a band of musicians was stationed, playing the national
anthem and other patriotic airs, as their Royal Highnesses
passed under it. A great number of the neighbouring vil-
lagers and the towns-people were assembled to greet them ;
and the Royal party were met at the entrance to the abbey by
Lady Webster. They remained here for some time, and then
proceeded on their route to this place. About four miles,
after leaving battle, along the road to Hastings, there was no-
thing but a succession of arches and processions to meet the
Royal party ; so that it would require a volume of no small
size to attempt detailing them. Nothing could exceed the
enthusiasm that prevailed among all classes. The town of
Hastings was decorated with flags of all nations, every house
presenting some symbol of loyalty and affection towards the
Royal travellers. The mayor and jurats of Hastings, with an
immense number of gentlemen on horseback, and the sere) al
trades and benefit societies walking in procession with their
banners, met their Royal Highnesses about a mile from the
town, and then accompanied them to the Marina. at St. Leo-
nard's, where three houses are engaged for their Royal High_
nesses and suite. To describe the enthusiasm with which

they were received here by the assembled thousands would be
impossible. Immediately after entering the house the Duchess
and Princess came into the balcony and repeatedly acknow-
ledged the hearty cheers that long and loudly rent the air. In
the evening a very brilliant illumination was intended ; but,
owing to the boisterous state of the weather, much of its effect
was completely spoiled. Edlin's Royal St. Leonard's Hotel
would have been ix blaze of light, but for the rude and unfriendly
visit of old Boreas. Soon after eight o'clock a very brilliant
display of fireworks took ”lace in front of the Marina, under
the superintendence of M. ,Ernst, which, without a pun, re-
flected great credit on him. .11; fact, the whole arrangements
were well made, and every thing was conducted in a highly
creditable manner. In the evening the Mayor and Corpora-
tion of Hastings, with the gentlemen forming the committee
of management, dined at the Royal St. Leonard's, and mine
host did not forget to give them a dinner worthy of the occa-
sion which caused them to assemble.
