RIO JANEIRO, July 23.

On the evening of Sunday, the 14th inst., a tele-
gram from Cape Frio announced to the port autho-
rities of Rio Janeiro that her Britannic Majesty's
ship Galatea had passed that Cape. Next morning
a frigate was seen off the bar of the mouth of the
harbour of the Brazilian capital, but until about
2 o'clock p.m. there she lay motionless, and those
who were anxiously watching her movements were
left to conjecture that the delay in her progress was
caused by the natural desire on the part of her Royal
commander to wait the setting in of the afternoon
breeze from the sea in order that the Galatea might
enter the magnificent harbour of Rio under full sail.
But if this was the object of the sailor Prince it was
not destined to be realised, for the breeze of that
afternoon was so slight as not to admit of the fri-
gate carrying sail. So soon as this became apparent
steam was got up on boardof the vessel, which then
slowly passed the renowned rock called the " Sugar-
loaf," and, with the Royal Standard of England
flying from the mainmast, proceeded to take up her
post in the portion of the harbour assigned to the
English squadron.
No sooner had the Galatea dropped her anchor
than she became the mark for a flight of boats, which
were immediately directed towards her ; and while
a Royal salute was being fired from the shore bat-
teries and from the English, French, Spanish, and
American flagships, Prince Alfred was waited upon
by Mr. Thornton, her Britannic Majesty's Minister,
accompanied by his secretaries, Mr. Watson and
the Hon. Mr. Le Po3r Trench ; by the English
Admiral commanding on the South Atlantic station,
Rear Admiral Ramsay, C. 8., and his staff, as well
as by the several officers commanding her Majesty's
ships now here—Capts. Mayne, C. 8., Lefroy, &c.,
by the English Consul, and by the Admirals in
command of the American, French, and Spanish
squadrons, accompanied by their respective staff
officers. Later in the afternoon the Prince was
visited by his Royal Highness the Comte d'Eu, son
of the Duke of Nemours, and husband to the
heiress apparent of Brazil.
The Emperor had placed his town Palace at the
disposal of his Royal Highness, but he elected to
remain on board during his stay in preference to
going there or to the English Legation. That
evening the Prince proceeded first to the English
Legation and then returned the visit that had been
paid to him by the Comte d'Eu.

On the following morning his Royal Highness
landed in state for the purpose of proceeding to the
Imperial Palace of Sao Cristovao. Nothing can be
imagined that would exceed in beauty the appear-
ance which the harbour of Rio Janeiro presented on
that morning. The atmosphere was sufficiently
clear to reveal on the opposite side of the bay the
peaks of the Organ Mountains, and it was like a
scene in fairy land as the Prince's barge swept
across the water, followed in its course by the barges
of all the vessels of the English squadron, which at
present consist of six vessels besides the Galatea—
the Narcissus, the Egmont, the Nassau, the Chan-
ticleer, the Virago, and the Spiteful. All the men-
of war of the various squadrons in the harbour had
their yards manned and were " dressed," and each
flagship saluted with 21 guns as the Royal standard
passed.

The Prince, attended by his equerries and by the
members of the British Legation, then proceeded
to the Palace of Sao Cristovao, where he had a
lengthened interview with the Emperor and Em-
press, after his return from which he received a
deputation from the British in Rio Janeiro.
The visit of the Galatea to Brazil has also its
sombre side. On the evening of the 16th occurred
the death, from typhus fever, of one of the mid-
shipmen of that vessel, the Hon. Mr. Willoughby,
whose remains were the next afternoon followed to
the English cemetery by his commanding officer, the
Duke of Edinburgh. On the 18th the Emperor dined
on board the Galatea, and remained till a late hour,
and on the following evening the Emperor and
Empress, the Princess Imperial, the Comte
d'Eu, and the Duke of Edinburgh honoured with
their presence a ball given at the English Legation.
The grounds had been beautifully illuminated for
the occasion, and as the Duke of Edinburgh, -
tended by Lord Newry and Mr. Watson, drove up
the avenue in an open carriage belonging to the
English Minister, his Royal Highness was recog-
nised by the crowds of on-lookers, whose enthusiasm
could scarcely be kept within bounds by the cavalry
with which the road was lined. Seven hundred per-
sons had been invited to the ball,at number and, to judge
least
by
the appearance of the rooms, hat at
were present. Their imperial Majesties opened the
ball respectively with Mr. and Mrs. Thornton, and
remained at the Legation untioofl
could nearlbe adduced of
y 3 o'clock in
the morning. No better pr
the sincere regard they bear to ur estimablehis
which Min-
ister, and of the complete succoess with
management of affairs has been attenilld-feeling which
in obliter-
sting every vestige of the general
undoubtedly existe 1 in Brazil towards England, an
of
which for so Jong a period caused a suspension
diplomatic relations between the two countr
one oc-
ies. It
may be motioned that, before this, only on
casion has the Brazilian Emperor during his 40
years' reign honoured with his presence the house of
an English representative, and that 30 years ago,
when ho visited Mr. Hamilton Hamilton. It may
be mentioned, also, that his imperial Majcst.y pre-
sented to the Duke of Edinburgh the insignia of
the highest Brazilian order of knighthood—the
" Southern Cross."
On the day following that of the ball at the Eng-
lish Legation, Prince Alfred dined at the palace of
Sao Cristovao, those invited to meet him being the
Brazilian Admiral Tamaudare, Mr. Thornton and
his secretaries, aid the foreign Admirals on the sta-
