THE DRIVING OF CATTLLE THROUGH TILE STREETS.

Upon the motion of Mr. ItuumN, the Markets' Committee
were authorised to confer with the Government and the Lords
of the Privy Council as to the course to be pursued with
reference to the driving of cattle through the streets of the
metropolis.

Some petitions were then read and referred, and the Court
adjourned.

The Duke of Edinburgh at Glasgow.

The Duke of Edinburgh arrived in Glasgow yes-
terday for the purpose of inaugurating the statue
which has just been erected in George's-square, in
memory of his late father, the Prince Consort. He
was accompanied by Dr. Lyon Playfair, Lieutenant
Haig, equerry in waiting; Gen. Hamilton, the Hon.
Col. F. Cockburn, and Capt. Graham. He was re-
ceived at the railway station by Lord Belhaven,
Lord Lieutenant of Lanarkshire, who introduced
the Lord Provost of Glasgow, Sheriff Sir A. Alison,
and Mr. P. Clouston. Outside the station a large
crowd had assembled to welcome the Prince, the
Queen's Own Yeomanry cavalry keeping the ground.
The party, amid the loud plaudits of the assembly,
at once drove off to the residence of the Lord Pro-
vost, where the Duke had luncheon.
After making a detour of the city, through which
he was loudly cheered, he was conducted to the
City Hall to receive the freedom of the city, arriv-
ing there a few minutes after 2 o'clock. The Prince-
was heartily welcomed by the chief citizens, their
wives, and daughters. He wore the Highland cos-
tume, the tartan being that known as the Royal
Stuart, the National Anthem having been played by
the city organist. _ . .

The-LORD PROVOST proceeded to confer citizen-
ship on the Prince. He first spoke of the gratifica-
tion which it afforded the nation that her Majesty
had lived to see her family growing up in the prac-
tice of those social and domestic virtues which con-
duced so materially to national happiness and pros-
perity. He then expressed the pleasure the citizens
felt in seeing his royal highness exhibiting so many
of the virtues which his late lamented father had dis-
played during his lifetime. He then dwelt on the
naval profession with which the Duke had allied
himself, and next presented him with the official re-
cord of citizenship.
His ROYAL HIGHNESS, in reply, said—My
Lord Provost, Magistrates, and Members of
the Town Council of Glasgow,—l accept with
feelings of pleasure and gratitude the honour which
you have conferred upon me as a burgess of this
ancient city. You have done justice to my desire
to cultivate friendly relations between the people of
this country and myself, and in this sense I am glad
to find that I have now a right to consider myself
a citizen of Glasgow—(cheers) --and to share with
my fellow-citizens those feelings of pride which its
achievements in the arts entitle us to entertain. It
is no small boast that this city was the birthplace
of James Watt--(cheers)--and that his access to
one of the popular scientific institutions of the town
laid the foundation for his marvellous improvements
in the steam-engine. Neither am I, a sailor, likely
to forget that the practical application of steam to
navigation was first made on the Clyde —(cheers)—
which has since that time been deepened and im-
proved by science and loyal energy—so that Glasgow
has become one of the grand emporiums of the
world. (Cheers.) The first steamer, the Comet,

hetlae gigantic
men-of-war beam,
men-of-war and ships of commerce now built by
Napier and other eminent shipbuilders on the banks
of the Clyde, and which in the exercise of my pro-
fession I have often admired. (Loud cheers.) I
thank you sincerely for the kind and encouraging
words which you have addressed to me as an officer
of the navy. This branch of the national service
keenly appreciates the support and commendation
of a great commercial city such as Glasgow. It
will be a source of pleasure to me to repeat to the
Queen your appreciation of the patriotic and noble
qualities which endeared my lamented father to
this country. (Applause.) I desire earnestly to
follow in his footsteps as far as my abilities per-
mit me, by giving constant attention as ,he did
to the promotion of the sciences, arts, manufac-
tures, and commerce, and to those social im-
provements of the people which tend to increase
their knowledge and promote their well-being.
The statue which is to be inaugurated this day,
while it furnishes your lasting record of the worth
of the Prince Consort, will also, I trust, be an en-
couragement to each of our citizens to labour for
the general good of the country, by proving that
the cultivation of the peaceful arts is a claim to
honour and fortitude which the people at large are
glad to recognise.
At the conclusion of his Royal Highness's reply
the audience rose en masse, and cheered heartily.
A procession was then formed, including all the
corporate bodies, city clergy, and the members of
the learned professions, escorted by the Queen's Own
Yeomanry Cavalry, the line being kept by a large
body of Volunteers and police, ably aided by wooden
barricades, whichlined the streets leading to George-
square, where the statue was to be unveiled. There
was an immense number of spectators, every point
where a view of the procession could be had being
occupied, including the windows and even the roofs
along the route. the weather, however, at this
part of the proceedings was most unfavourable,
heavy rains falling, so that the bunting displayed
had a rather miserable appearance. The ovation
the Duke received, however, was not the less hearty,
he being loudly cheered by the populace.
The ceremony of unveiling the statue was com-
menced by the Rev. Dr. Norman Macleod offering
up prayers. After which Mr. Peter Coulston read
an address to his Royal Highness, which detailed
the steps which had been taken to erect the monu-
ment ; and thanked him for graciously consenting
to inaugurate it.

In reply the DUKE said—Mr. Chairman and gen-
tlemen of the Memorial Committee,—lt is a very
pleasant and grateful duty which has devolved upon
me to represent her Majesty the Queen on the oc-
casion of the inauguration of a statue to the memory
of my beloved father in a city known throughout
the world not only for the successful prosecution of
manufacturing industry, but also for the origin of
some of the most important inventions in the arts
which have added to the comforts and resources of
mankind. As a son I feel proud that this indus-
trial capital of Scotland should have placed on per-
manent record their sense of the value of the labours
of the Prince Consort in promoting those arts and
sciences which, in their application to industry, con-
tributed so much to the prosperity of manufacture
and commerce. I shall not fail to express to the
Queen the sentiments of loyalty to her Majesty's
gracious person to which you have alluded in your
address, and which are confirmed by the lively inte-
rest of the people in the proceedings of this day.
The Queen will be deeply touched by your expres-
sions of affection and regard for the memory of heri
lamented consort. I congratulate this city,

interest, in the fact of having one of its

brought together in close proximity the'. statues 3 of
her Majesty and the Prince Consort.
The Duke of Edinburgh then. stepped forward and
unveiled the statue, amid the enthusiastic cheers of
the large assemblage. The monumentis an eques-
trian statue, and represents the late Prince Consort
reining in a charger. As a work of .art it is credit-
able to the fame of Baron Marochetti.
In the evening the Prince dined with the corpo-
ration in private, and proceeded back to Edinburgh
by a late train.
