TIER M. AJESTY'SVISIT TO OXFORD.

OXFORD, WEDNESDAY.
It was only so late as Saturday last the Clergy of the
diocese of Oxford had notice communicated to them that
it was intended to address her Majesty upon the occasion
of h visit to this ancient seat of piety and learning. The
13i.thop of the diocese, the Archdeacon, and Clergy, assem-
bled in that noble room of the Radcliff so justly celebrated
for its extent and beauty. The whole body appeared in
full canonicals. The Clergy formed a double line, extend-
ing from the door of entrance to the upper end of the Hall,
where a chair of state was in readiness to receive her Ma-
jesty. A few minutes after four her Majesty arrived, awl.
moved along the space left ope:o for her approach, between
the double line of Clergy. tier Majesty bowed graciously
as she passed, and, having taken her seat, the Right Rev.
Prelate read an address, to which her Majesty returned a
gracious answer.

In the evening her Majesty, with a party somewhat more
numerous ttan on the preceding day, dined at the Angel.
Among ;,nose who were of her Majesty's party yesterday,
and not on Monday, was his Grace the Duke of Marl-
borough. Rain commenced falling soon after four, and it was
feared that the people would thus be prevented from testi-
fying their respect in tbt.‘ usual way, and enjoying the illu-
minations, which wel-e repeated last night with even in-
creased brilliancy. The inhabitants of that part of High-
street immediately opposite the Angel, were particularly
and very successfully zealous in their manifestatio,,ls of
loyalty in this display. The illuminations here Ivere re-
markably tasteful, and a view of thorn might be commanded
from her Majesty's dining-room. Fortunately, the weather
cleared up before the night was far advanced, and a very
numerous body of Under-Graduates, occupying the centre
of the street, frequently drew up before the Angel, and
cheered her Majesty with all the strength of their lungs.
It was feared that something in the way of contest between
them and the townspeople would have occurred. Fortu-
nately,. -however, so far as we could learn, nothing' of the
kind took place, except, perhaps, now and again a small
affair of fists.

Immediately after having heard service performed in New
College Chapel, her Majesty returned to dinner.

Wednesday Morning.
-Soon after ten this morning her Majesty, accompanied as
hitherto, with the exception of the Duke of Wellington,
took her departure on a short visit to Blenbeiln, from
whence she will return to Oxford, and immediately after
stet out for Strathfieldsaye, the residence of his Grace
the Duke of Wellington. It is ex:pected her Majesty
will pass the night there, and will arrive at Windsor to-
morrow.

On arriving at Blenheim, nn address was presented by
his Grace the Duke of Marlborough to her Majesty from
the ancient borough of Woodstock, to which her Majesty
returned an answer. On the approach of her Majesty to
Blenheim, the bells resounded a joyous peal. Her Ma-
jesty was conducted round the apartments of the Duke of
Marlborough, and seemed much interested in viewing thP,
beautiful collection of pictures. The Duke of Wellington,
in his private carriage, arrived some minutes I,,efore her
Majesty, and accompanied her Majesty thror,gh the apart-
ments.- There was a band stationed in the hall, which
played all the time her Majesty rema;.ned. She arrived at
the Angel a quarter-past two, esetrted by a small party of
yeomanry, and was loudly cbtered on her return. The
following Ladies, Noblems::n, and Gentlemen who were
not present on Mondays dined yesterday at the Royal
table :—Lord and La?,y Clonbrock, Lady Elizabeth Har-
court, Lord and Lpity Chetwynd, Lord Maidstone, Lord
Waldegrave, Jones, Rector of Exeter ; Dr. Simmons,
Dr. Bandero•,s, Dr. Bull, Warden of All ,Souls ; Mr. Sneid,
Dr. Fox, of Queen's, the Professor of Astronomy ; anO,
Mr. Evans, Junior Proctor.
