lER MAJESTY'S VISIT TO THE

KING OF THE FRENCH.
(From the Correspondent of the Times.)
LA VILLE D'EU, NORMANDY, SEPT. 7.
There being no longer any doubt that her Majesty would
visit en passant the King and Queen of the French (for M.
Guizot left Paris early yesterday morning for this royal re-
sidence, to be present:on the occasion), I left Paris at four
o'clock, and travelling all night, arrived here at seven o'clock
this morning.

You wilci suppose, have known from your correspondents
in Germany and Belgium that our gracious Sovereign eight or
ten days since acceded to the pressing desire of King Louis
Philippe that her Majesty would be graciously pleased to "look
in " on him on passing down the Channel. Even from a less
distinguished monarch such an invitation could hardly be
declined. It was accepted, therefore, but, lam told, with
some limitations, particularly as to the length of time to be
spent here, which will only extend to Tuesday (this day).
The King is resolved to do his utmost to prolong her Ma-
jesty's stay. A theatrical performance is to take place in
the Chateau, and other amusements are projected. We shall
see if the understood determination of the Queen to proceed
almost direct to Osborne House will be acted upon. From a
host so warm and so earnest as the King of the French it
might not be easy to escape, but somehow or other it seems
to be the prevailing opinion that the visit will be extremely
short indeed.
At eleven o'clock this forenoon I repaired to Trdport, and
observed that two King's steamers in the offing, and two
smaller in the basin, were respectively getting up their steam.
Gendarmes and other agents from Eu began to arrive, and
the troops were held in readiness to line the pier, &c., at a
moment's notice. At ;half-past one o'clock precisely the
King, Queen, and Royal Family, and the Ministers of Public
Instruction and of Foreign Affairs, the Prefect of the Depart-
ment, the General commanding the district, &c., left the
Chateau in five carriages for Treport, to make, as is said, an
excursion by sea.
ARRIVAL OF THE QUEEN AT TREPORT.
TREPORT, SErr. 8.
So early as four o'clock this morning a distant report of
cannon was heard here. Although not yet daybreak, some
excitement became instantly obvious in this little town, or-
dinarily so tranquil. At seven o'clock two steamers were
distinguished far off in the east, the most advanced of which
immediately commenced firing. She was found to be a
French steamer (the Pluton, it is believed), and she was un-
derstood to fire as well to announce the approach of the
Queen of England as to salute.
_

- All was bii;tle immediately afterwards. The foot soldiery,
the line, the Cuirassiers, the Chasseurs, and all the military
who had remained here during the night were placed en ba-
taille, althcugh it was evident that two hours must elapse ere
the Queen could land. _

At eight o'clock the King and Queen of the French, the
Princess Adelaide, and indeed all the members of the royal
family, arrived in the grand char-a-Laic, followed by eight
or ten other carriages filled with their distinguished guests
and other high personages. The King was in delight, and
looked better than he has done for six months. He raised

his hat vigorously in return to the salutations with which he
was received.

Half an hour afterwards the British steamer, with the
royal standard of England displayed, was within a mile of
the shore. King Louis Philippe immediately entered a barge,
with a few attendants, and proceeded to the Courriersteamer,
in which he approached the Victoria aid Albert. From the
Courrier his Majesty descended into a boat fully manned,
and pulled to the Victoria and Albert. Queen Victoria and
Prince Albert were distinctly visible on the deck, and imme -

diately after King Louis Philippe was seen to ascend. Some
little bustle took place, and then the royal party were seen
to descend into the barge, in which they were rowed to the
shore. _ _

At a quarter past nine o'clock our Queen landed, and was
received by her Majesty the Queen of the French, the Prince
de Salerno, &c., and warmly embraced each other. Never
did her Majesty Queen Victoria appeared in more magnifi-
cent health. _

Prince Albert looked a little pale, but was evidently in
high spirits.
A few moments only elapsed when they entered their
carriages amid deafening cheers, and the still more deafening
thunder of theguns of the battery close by, and of all the
ships of war in the offing. One cheer more took place after
the first plunge of the linrses, and a line of dust indicated the
rapid departure of the cortege for Eu.
ARRIVAL OF HER MAJESTY AT EU.

ELT, MONDAY MORNLNG, SI,I'T. 8.
At precisely 33 minutes past 9 o'clock the char-a-bane in
which were her Majesty Queen Victoria, his Royal Highness
Prince Albert, the King and Queen of the French, &c.,
entered the Grand Court of the Chateau of Eu. The
Queen looked in admirable health, and most animatedly ac-
knowledged the cheers of the privi!eged few who were ad-
mitted within its precincts, and the salute Gf the troops, whose
cries of -Fire le Roi were heard above the musical band, which,
immediately on her Majesty's appearance, commenced playing
" God save the Queen., '
M. Guizot and some other persons of distinction were at
the great entrance of the chateau, and were first to hail the
Queen's arrival at Eu.

- After a moment or two, her Majesty, accompanied by her
illustrious hosts, appeared in the balcony over the entrance,
and again, with much apparent warmth, expressed her
sense of the hearty good will with which all around had
cheered her.
