HER MAJESTY at BLAIR ATHOL.
BLAIR ATHOL, FRIDAY. 1

There is little to record of the movements of her
Majesty and the Court here beyond the mere ordinary
routine, so strict is the privacy desired and obtained.
For the purpose of retirement a more favourable spot
could scarcely have been obtained, combining as it
does such exquisite natural beauties with such abso-
lute quiet and seclusion from the bustle and turmoil
of the world.

Athol House itself is a building of the most un-
pretending character. It is a plain structure, all
white from the great entrance to the out-offices, and
planned without the slightest assistance from the rules
of architectural beauty. It is, however, commodious,
and the interior has been prepared, under the direc-
tion of Lord Glenlyon, by upholsterers from Lon-
don, in a style rendering it a fit abode for the Queen
in the retirement which she seeks. It is delightfully
situate in the centre of a glen, or, more properly
speaking, a valley, surrounded on all sides by high
hills, one of which, Ben-y-glo, almost aspires to the
rank of mountain. Some of these hills are clothed to
the tops with fir, relieved by masses of rich verdure ;
others are more barrem, but strikingly grand. At
all hours of the day—from the early morning, when
the summits of the hills are hidden in mists, to the
night, when their bold outlines form a grand'amphi-
theatre enclosing the domain—the scene is beautiful
in the extreme. Repose and seclusion are, however,
claims it possesses in an extreme degree, and which
give it apparently a value in the eyes of her Majesty
in addition to its great natural advantages. The in-
terior of the grounds afford extensive walks and
drives, of which her Majesty avails herself, and the
Prince is enabled to enjoy shooting on the hills.
Deer-stalking will, it is said, be added to his Royal.
Highness's amusements. The utmost care is used to
exclude all strangers from the house and grounds.
A guard of the Athol Highlanders, under the com-
mand of Captain Drummond, mount guard over it,
and there i 5 a body of the London police, under the
orders of an inspector Steed, who also lend assistance
in maintaining order and preventing intrusions from
the curious. The views in the neighbourhood, it is
needless to say, are full of beauty and interest.
Every guide-book to Scotland teems with their
praises, but scarcely does them justice. It is under-
stood that her Majesty will from time to time visit
them all.

-------
Very little beyond mere Court routine has to be
recorded.

_________
Yesterday (Thursday) only the Prince and Queen
walked on the hills adjoining the house, accompanied
by the Princess Royal. Her Royal Highness also
took walking exercise in the afternoon. The Queen
and the Prince in the afternoon drove out in the pony
phaeton.
The dinner party yesterday consisted, besides the
Queen and Prince Albert, of Lord and Lady Glen-
lyon, the Earl of Aberdeen, the Earl of Liverpool,
Viscountess Canning, Lady Caroline Cocks, the Hon.
Charles 'Wellesley, Sir Edward Bowater, Sir James
Clarke, and Mr. Anson.
This morning (Friday) her Majesty and the Prince
breakfasted at half-past eight. They then took walk-
ing exercise in the grounds, accompanied by the
Princes Royal, for whom a pony was provided. The
Prince then went out shooting, attended by Sir E.
Bowater, and accompanied by Lora Glenlyon. Her
Majesty drove out in the pony phaeton, accompanied
by Lady Canning.
The escorts of Scots Greys have been dismissed for
the present. Her Majesty is now under charge of
the Athol Highlanders.
Her Majesty will attend divine service on Sunday
at the church of the parish. A large pew has been
fitted with ottomans, and covered with crimson cloth,
to receive her Majesty and suite, and there are crimson
coverings to the rest of the pews.
During Friday afternoon, when the Queen and
Prince drove out, they went to the old village of
Blair, where the sheep-shearing was going on, with
which her Majesty was much amused. She also par-
ticularly noticed some Scotch terriers. They then
proceeded towards Glen Tilt, where, near a marble
quarry, where there is a beautiful vein of green mar-
ble, they entered a hut The gude wife was spinnieg,
and the Queen sat down and conversed with her very
affably for some time. The inmates did not know the
rank of their visitors, and, in accordance with the
custom, they put a bottle and glass on the table, and
asked them to taste the mountain dew.

BLAIR ATIIOLL, SATURDAY MORNING.
There appear to be some indications this morning
of a change in the weather, and if the sun should be
compelled to retreat before the rain and mist which
have begun to invade the present abode of royalty'
there is but little likelihood that her Majesty wil

prolong her visit to the end of the month. Within
the last few days, however, there has been a fresh

Influx of visitors and tourists, who are anxious to

combine the pleasures of seeing their Sovereign and
the beauties of Scottish scenery. The two hotels,

:he Blair of Atholl Inn and the Bridge of Tilt Inn,

are completely inundated—people are glad to be
allowed to lie down indiscriminately under the dining
tables like " four-and-twenty blackbirds all of a
row ;" every bed-room boasts of three or four occu-
pants, and when they wake in the morning they find

themselves placed by the side of some drowsy
stranger, with whom they had not the honour of any

previous acquaintance, and who had been billeted
upon them by an unceremonious landlord during
their peaceful slumbers. Misery, however, makes us
acquainted with strange bedfellows, and yet the most
exorbitant charges must be submitted to from "mine
host," who levies a sort of black mail on the unwary
travellers, by means of this ingenious, but somewhat
Irish, method of multiplying accommodation.
In the course of the afternoon of yesterday, her
Majesty drove out in a pony phaeton along the high
road to Inverness as far as the Falls of Bruar, but
unfortunately a shower of rain prevented her Majesty
from alighting to view the most picturesque portion
of this beautiful waterfall. The beauties of the Falls
of Bruar have been considerably enhanced by a rich
clothing of fir and oaks, fringing its rocky banks,
which were formerly as bleak, bare, and desolate as
the summits of the surrounding hills, amidst which it
lies embosomed. These plantations were formed by
the late Duke of Atholl, in compliance with the cele-
brated poetical epistle of Burns, who begged that
some clothing might be placed upon the naked rocks;
and the fragrant birks are now dressed in woodbines,
and the craggy cliffs are now adorned with the firs
and thorns for which Scotland's poet petitioned in
such glowing language.
It is, however, positive that her Majesty will make
a second effort to view these Falls during her sojourn
here. In her drive yesterday her Majesty was ac-
companied by Prince Albert, who had returned early
from grouse shooting on the hills, where his Royal
Highness had some excellent sport ; several black cock
were sent to the Castle by the Prince, in order that
they might be prepared for her Majesty's luncheon,,
and at half-past three his Royal Highness rode back
to the Castle, and drove her Majesty out in the pony
phaeton, preceded by outriders—Lord Glenlyon and
Sir Edward Bowater rode on either side of the
carriage, the Highland chieftain wearing the two
eagles' feathers in his bonnet. On the return of
her Majesty to the Castle, a Scotch peasant, who
had been evincing his loyalty in copious libations
in honour of the Queen, staggered into the Castle,
and entered the room where the illustrious party were
assembled with far less ceremony and discrimination
than were displayed by the " boy Jones." The in-
truder was forthwith handed over to the tender
mercies of the local police, who appear to perform
their onerous duties with that energy and vigour for
which the renowned followers of Dogberry and
Verges were so eminently distinguished.
A vast number of Lord Glenlyon's clansmen and
foresters have been out during the night driving the
deer into the Glen Tilt, in order to enable the Prince
to have a shot at them as they bound through the
passes. His Royal Highness, accompanied by his
noble host and a large party, mounted on shooting
ponies, left the Castle this morning for the Glen,
where there is every probabity that they will have
some excellent sport as the wind is favourable.
Her Majesty will attend Divine service to-morrow
morning, at the village church of Blair Atholl; the
chieftain's pew in that sacred edifice has been fitted
up with scarlet lining and tapestry, for her Majesty's
use, and great preparations are making to beautify
and adorn the church for the reception of her Majesty.
The Seceders have, unhappily, attempted to inculcate
their pernicious doctrines within these peaceful do-
mains, and a wooden "free kirk" has been erected by
them at the further extremity of the village, but they
have, hitherto, failed in their efforts to lead away the
peasantry from , those places of worship in which
their forefathers have, from time out of mind,
assembled. The ancient chapel of the Atholl
family is now mouldering in ruins, and forms
one of the' most picturesque objects within
the grounds of the Castle. This ruin is rendered
doubly interesting, as being the-burial place of every
Highland chieftain of ancient descent and lofty
lineage ; but the chief object of interest within its
moss-grown walls is the tomb of the celebrated
Claverhouse, whose body was brought to Blair
Atholl after the battle of Killiecrankie, and received
honourable interment from the Atholl family, against
whom he had so long combated with such terrific
energy and effect. Every traveller and tourist makes
a pilgrimage to the tomb of this celebrated hero, and
the descendants of the Covenanters still shudder at the
bare -mention of the name of the bloody Claverse.
Her Majesty appears to be in the enjoyment of ex-
cellent health and spirits, and evidently derives the
greatest gratification from her present re eluded mode
of life... Post

To-day we learn that his Royal Highness Prince
Albert, and several of the gentlemen of his suite, eager
to enjoy the splendid sport of deer-stalking, were
stirring betimes, and enjoyed splendid sport in the
deep ravines of the Tilt. Two fine red deer were
killed by the royal party. There were various games
performed ; and her Majesty visited several of the
most magnificent scenes in the neighbourhood, and
seemed extremely gratified with the gloomy grandeur
everywhere presented, so different to the changing
glitter and artificial pleasures of the Court.—Aberdeen
Herald of Saturday.

WEST INDIA MAIL.
SOUTHAMPTON, SEPT. 15.

The Royal Mail Steam-packet Company's ship
Tay, Captain Hayden, arrived here at 1 P.M.
The Tay left Havannah on the Bth, Nassau 10th,
Bermuda 20th, and Fayal 31st August.
The Tay met the Severn at Havannah on the Bth
inst., proceeding to the Gulf of Mexico, and the
Clyde at Bermuda, with dates from Jamaica to the
Bth August, and Carthagena to the 2d September.
The Tay having met with an accident, being
obliged to go into Fayal, met there her Majesty s
surveying steamer Styx, to which ship the mails
were transferred, and both ships came home in
company, and. landed the mails at Plymouth yester-
day, at 11 A.M.
The 'ray brings twelve passengers, and left twenty-
one passengers at Fayal 'o come home in the Tweed,
which ship will be due here on the 21st inst.
The Tay brings 80,000 dolls. in freight.
The West India papers received by the Tay bring
little news. They are almost entirely occupied by
reports of the debates in Parliament upon the Sugar
Duties Bill, which they still seem generally inclined
to regard as ruinous to the West India interests.
With respect to the accident which had obliged the
Tay to leave several of her passengers at Fayal, we
have been favoured with the following statement by a
passenger in that vessel :
" The report of the unhappy disaster which befel
the Royal Mail Company's steam-packet Tay on the
coast of Havannah on the Bth of July last, and her
subsequent arrival in England considerably after her
time, having on board only a few of the passengers
who embarked in the West Indies, would naturally
occasion much alarm and distress to those expecting
the arrival of relations and friends ; you will, there-
fore, I am sure, be glad to give publicity through your
journal to the following statement, as regards the pas-
sengers, which I feel it a duty to offer to the public, in
order to obviate the alarm which, I am happy to state,
circumstances of a most fortunate nature have ren-
dered groundless :
"The Tay left Bermuda on the 20th of August,
with the following passengers bound to England, and
was compelled to put into the port of Fayal on the
31st of August, when the passengers and mails were
landed.

" She again, after undergoing certain repairs, took
her departure for England, in company with her
Majesty's steam-vessel Sty; to the care and atten-•
tion bestowed by the captain and officers of which
vessel may in a great measure be attributed her pre-
sent safety.
" The greater number of the passengers not being
di,posed to trust themselves again on board the Tay
in her then condition, remained at Faye], in order to
proceed to their destination by the following mail-
packet, Tweed, expected there on the 22th inst. The
following are the names of the persons so remaining ;
and annexed is a list of those who proceeded in the
Tay, and who arrived at Plymouth in safety under
the convoy of her Majesty's surveying-vessel Styx,
on the 14th of September, and the Tay proceeded on
to Southampton with the Styx :

DONCASTER RACES.

DONCASTER, SUNDAY EVENING.

Several of the principal lodgings have been taken, and,
notwithstanding the variable and unpromising state of
the weather, we ire led to believe that the meeting
although it may suffer by comparison with the "good
old times" of Doncaster, will, at least, prove an average
one. Irrespective of sport, of which there seems likely
to be a reasonable allowance, there will be enough to
occupy men of business, and to amuse those intent only
on pleasure. On Wednesday we shall have what is so
often mis-called "the settling ;" on the same day and the
following Mr. Tattersall's sales of thorough-bred stock,
of all ages, and of the most fashionable blood, including
a large draft from Scott's stables ; and, on a day not yet
fixed, a meeting of noblemen and gentlemen interested
in the races, for the purpose of taking into consideration
the propriety of confining the races, in future, to four
days. Should this be determined on, it will also be
matter of discussion whether it will not be expedient to
prevent the necessity of Sunday travelling by making
Tuesday the first day ; an alteration in the order of run-
ning the principal stakes will be a necessary consequence
of the contemplated change. In the shape of recreation,
there will be the theatre every night ; M. Jullien and
his " unrivalled band" at the Mansion-house, on Thurs-
day evening ; the race balls, &c., &c.
THE ST. LEGER.—Up to the present time the betting
has been flat in the extreme, but enough has been done
to warrant a quotation, and to show that Ithuriel's
chance is gone. Lord Stanley has declared that he is
amiss, but that he shall start him if possible. The
Cure arrived this morning, gallopped shortly after, and
went remarkably well ; he is in immense favour ; next
to him Red Deer, the Princess, and Foig-a•ballagh are
