through the usual platform line of the station, and
proceed thence to Doncaster„,ffreiving there at about
' 7 o'clock.
Her Majesty having determined to pass the:#ight
at Doncaster, considerable preparations have been
made by the corporation and inhabitants to give her
Majesty a hearty and loyal welcome. The Angel
Hotel has been selected for the accommodation of the
Royal visitors, and has been suitably prepared for
them.
On entering the Doncaster station the Royal train
will run from the down line to the up platform, in
order that her Majesty may alight on that side. The
Chancellor of the Exchequer will be in readiness to
receive her Majesty on her leaving the train. A
guard of honour, consisting of 100 rank and file of the
85th Light infantry, from the Hull garrison, will be
drawn up on the platform. The Mayor, on behalf of
the Corporation and the inhabitants of the town, will
have the honour of presenting an address to her Ma-
jesty through the medium of Lord John Russell, who,
will accompany her Majesty on this occasion. The
,enswer her Majesty may be pleased to direct will NW."'

the Royal visitors to the Angel Hotel. By direction
of the Earl of Harewood the military escort will be

caster, and Barnsdale) of the Ist West Yorkshire
Yeomanry Cavalry by the officer in charge of the mi-
litary arrangements, Lieutenant-General Earl Cath-
cart, K.O 8., Commander of the Northern and Mid-
land District, who, in the unavoidable absence of Ma-
ior-General Warre, Commander of the North-West
Counties, has undertaken to act on the occasion.
The route from the railway station to the Angel
Hotel is comparatively short and direct, and although
it will doubtless be sufficiently crowded by the vast
influx of people who are expected to be present, the
corporation have made the most efficient arrangemets.
for preventing any overcrowding or confusion during
her Majesty's brief progress.
Thc: Mayor of Doncaster has invited a large party
to dine et the Mansion-house on Wednesday evening,
including the members (Yf- the corporation, the'6lßcials
connected with her Majesty's suite, the Great
Northern Railway directors, and the leading gentle
men of the town ate neighbourhood.

mination, a grand display of fireworks, and various
public rejoicings, to testify the loyalty of the inhabit-
ants.
The guard of honour will be stationed during her
Majesty 'a sojourn at the Angel Hotel, at the Guild-
hall, which is just opposite.
On the following (Thursday) morning the Royal
train will leave Doncaster at nine A.M. It will pro-
ceed slowly through the station at Knottingley
(where a short branch leads into the North Midland
line at Burton Salmon station) and arrive at York at
9 50. Tee train will not enter the station, but stop
