It appears that all the arrangements m vie with re
ference to the arrival of her Majesty the Q leen at the
terminus of the Great Northern Rail way direct from
the Nine Elmi Station of the South Western R ail say,
were, at a late hour this eveeing, set aside. The alte•
ration was not conveyed to Mr. Seymour Clarke, the
general manager of the line, until between eight and
nine o'clock ; and the substance of the communica-
tion was, that instead of taking luncheon at the ter-
minus of the Great Northern Railway, as she origi-
n ally intended, her Majesty, on reaching the Nine
Elms station of the S ,nth- Western line, will proceed
to Becltingham Palace, where she will first partake
of refreshment, and then proceed to the Great Nor-
thern Railway, arriving at the platform at two o'clock
—the original time appeinted for her departure.
In consequence of these alteration', the works in
reference to the preparations of the apartments far
the reception of her Mej -sty on arriving at the King'e-
cross station have been countermanded, and there can
be no doubt the route to the station as originally in-
tended, will, in consequence of the Q ven going to
to
, Beckingharn Palace, be entirely altered alio.
sF,
! Majesty will pass up Maiden-lane from liiing'iecro
and enter the eta-ion a!: the fourth gate, and at once
' enter the Royal set een carriage, which will be in rea-
dineee to receive her.
Tne directors have given order.; for the erection of
a gellery on the pletf to which 200 or 300 ladies
and gentlemen will have the privilege of entree by
ticket only; and the offi::ers of the company are to
have the privilege of ranging. themselves on the op-
posite side of the station.
The preparations for the reception of her Majesty
at D incaster are upon a most magnificent scale. By
permission of the company, the corporation have
erected a capacious gellery on the platform, which chill
accommodate several hundred ladies and gentlemen
to witness the ceremony of the presentation of an
address to her Majesty on her arrival. She will also
be received on the arrival of the train by a guard of
honour stationed on the platform. The distance of
the Angel Inn, where her AN !sty anti her Royal
Consort are to sleep,- is about a quarter of a mile from
the station, and within that short distance no less than
three triumphal arches are in course of erection, which
will have suitable iuscriptioas and &vie,* Every

fireworks to take place in the evening, in honour of
the evrnt of her Majesty making that town her resting
place for the night. In addition to the military and
local police, sixty men of the railway police, drafted
from the metropolis and other stations on the line, will

The greatest credit is due to the authorities of the
Great Northern Railway for the precautions they
have taken to prevent either delay, accident, or incon..
venience of any kind to the royal travllers throughout
their progress as is exhibited by the instructions
issued from the general manager's office to every sta-
tion master or other official to whom such knowledge
of the royal progress Is necessary ; they are as follow
