ARRIVAL AT THE ISLE OF WIGHT.

Cowes, FRIDAY EVENING.—The King of Holland arrived here
this afternoon, on a visit to the Queen and Prince Albert. Pre-
parations had been made at Norris Castle for the reception of his
Majesty and suite, the accommodation at Osborne House not being
sufficiently extensive.
His Royal Highness Prin?e Albert left Osborne House and em.
barked in the steam yacht Fairy shortly before three for the
purpose of proceeding to Gosport to meet his Majesty on his ar-
rival, and accompanying hint to the Isle of Wight.
The Marquis of Exeter, Lord Aberdeen, and Lord Jersey pre-
ceded the King of the Netherlands from London, whence they
took their departute by the express train at half-past twelve o'clock.
Upon the special train arrivirg at Gosport, his Majesty was re.
ceived by the military commander-in-chief of the district, Major-
General Pahenham, and the other military authorities. Guards
of 'mon' were stationed at the railway terminus and at the Royal
Clarence Victualling-yard.
On alighting from the train the troops presented arms, and the
band struck up the national anthem.
His Majesty, after courteously acknowledging the attentions
paid him by the authorities, entered the royal carriage that was
in waiting to convey hint from the terminus to the Clarence-
yard. Ile was loudly cheered by the persons assembled in and
about the railway station, and graciously acknowledged the en.
thusiastic reception with which he was met—an enthusiasm cer-
tainly not diminished by the recent records in the press of the
gallant services of his Majesty during the Peninsular war and in
the Geld of Waterloo, side by side with our uwn illustrious Wel-
lington.
His Majesty recognised Major-General Sir Hercules Pakenham
as an old military acquaintance, and shook him heartily by the
baud

When his Majesty alighted from the carriage, at the place of
embarkation in the Clarence-yard, he was received by the naval
commander in-chief, Admiral Sir Charles Rowley, and by the
other naval authorities and the officers commanding the ships in
harbour.

His Royal Highness Prince Albert was also waiting here to
meet and welcome his Majesty. The meeting between the royal
pair was most cordial.

The forts of the garrison fired a royal salute upon his Majesty's
arrival, and when the royal party were on board the steam-yacht
the Dutch standard was hoisted, and salutes were fired from her
Majesty's ships Victory and Excellent, and the Victory manned
her yards.

His Majesty and Prince Albert, and some of the noble personages
accompanying them, were conveyed on board the royal yacht in
Admiral Sir Charles Bowley's barge, the rest of his Majesty's suite
following in other barges. As the steamer, with the Dutch and
English standards at the mast head, proceeded on her course to the
mouth of the harbour, the men who were aloft manning the Vic-
tory's yards gave three cheers, which his Majesty acknowledged in
the most gracious manner. The shore on either side was thronged
with the inhabitants of the garrison, who also cheered his Majesty
as he passed out of the harbour. There was no man.of.war at
the anchorage at Spithead.
The royal party arrived here a few minutes after Ave o'clock.
As the steamer neared Cowes roads salutes were fired from the fort
at West Cowes Castle, and from the Royal Squadron Club-house
battery. Several of the yachts belonging to the Royal yacht &pia.
dron also saluted his Majesty.
Carriages were in waiting at the landing-place,
in which the
M
royal party were conveyed to Osborne House, where the ein&
between her Majesty and the King would take place.

zeal and firmness on having been forced into Court to obtain
the justice which it was intended to deny him, by selling at tite
eleventh hour, purposely to avoid the legitimate commission.
However, the charge of the judge and the verdict of the jury
have now set the question of commission at rest for ever. The
Lou' Times only gives a short detail of the trial, but in its
leader the editcr is unusually pithy in his remarks. We append
only a few lines. Speaking of the result it goes on to say :
" In other words, that a vendor shall not defraud an auctioneer
cf the fruits of his exertions by anticipating him in the sale,
for such, in plain terms, is TIIE MEANING OF THAT MOST
RIGHTEOUS DECISION."
