COURT CIRCULAR.

BRIG }ETON, SATURDAY.—Her Majesty did not take her ac-
customed airing to-day, the weather being foggy.
His Royal Highness Prince Albert, accompanied by Duke
Ferdinand, of Saxe Coburg, and the Princes Leopold and
Augustus of Saxe Coburg, walked out on the cliffs at eleven
o'clock. The Prince and the Royal party descended to the
beach, opposite Regency-square, where his Royal Highness
was asked by one of tho Brighton boatmen if he would like to
take a row out at sea, as it was " a fine time for rowing." His
Royal Highness declined the proffered invitation, but observed
that he might at some future period go out upon the water, and
then made some inquiries respecting a very neat galley lying
on the fall of the beach. . _ _

At one o'clock his Royal Highness, accompanied by their
Serene Highnesses the Princes of Saxe Coburg, rode out on
horseback, and visited the Tennis Court attached to the
Bedford Hotel. The Royal visit being by appointment, the
Prince and the Royal party were received by Lawrence Peel,
Esq., F. Seymour, Esq., Everett, Esq., and Cobbett
Derby, Esq. (who form a portion of the Committee.) There
were also present the Marquis of Bristol, Lord Poltimore, the
Earl of Belfast, Lord William Harvey, Major-General Upton,
Colonel Clarke and other Officers of the Scots Greys, Colonel
Bentinck and Officers of the Coldstream Guards, &c. On his
Royal Highnesses arrival a match was going on between Tom-
kins, the skilful Brighton marker, and Cox, the proprietor of
a Tennis Court in the Haymarket. In this match Tomkins
was the successful competitor. A "four" match was then
played—Cox and Mr. C. Derby against Tomkins and Lord
W. Harvey. His Royal Higness Prince Albert and the Royal
party remained an hour and a half, and appeared much in-
terested with the play.
The Royal party having returned to the Palace, his Royal
Highness subsequently walked out upon the Pier.
The only addition to the Royal dinner party was Archdeacon
Wilberforce, who had arrived at the Palace this day for the
purpose of assisting the Rev. Mr. Anderson in his official duties
at the Chapel on the following day.
SUNDAY.—This morning, at twelve o'clock, the Queen, his
Royal Highness Prince Albert, her Royal Highness the
Duchess of Kent, the Princes Augustus and Leopold of Saxe
Coburg, and the Royal suite, attended Divine worship at the
Palace Chapel. Prayers were read by the Rev. J. S. M. An-
clersc,n ; Archdeacon Wilberforce assisted at the Communion,
and also preached a sermon from Matthew, c. 15, v. 28. The
choir sang only one verse from the 43d Psalm, and one verse
of the 100th Psalm. The body of the Chapel was very full.
The congregation were admitted by tickets.
The Princess Royal was taken a carriage airing at one o'clock.
Neither her Majesty nor his Royal Highness Prince Albert
have been out for an awing up to the time at which I close my
letter. _ _ __ _ _ _ _

BasearroN, MONDAY.—Her Majesty and his Royal High-
ness Prince Albert drove out this morning, at eleven o'clock, in
in a pony phaeton, attended by Colonel Grey on horseback and
one outrider. After driving in front of the town for about an
hour the Royal party returned to the Pavilion.
Notwithstanding the weather was very inclement, with the
wind blowing strong from the south-west, her Royal Highness
the Duchess of Kent, accompanied by Sir George Cowper and
Lady Fanny Howard, left the Palace at one o'clock, and walked
on the Chain Pier for nearly an hour.
Her Royal Highness the Princess Royal was taken out for a
can iage airing at one o'clock.
A detachment of the 2d Scots Greys, under the command
of Lieutenant-Colonel Clark, and accompanied by their splen-
did band, paraded the principal streets of the town. On
passing the Pavilion the band struck up the National Anthem.
In consequence of the inclemency of the wez.ther, although
the carriages were ordered, the Royal party did not leave the
Palace this afternoon.

Their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge
have been prevented from paying their proposed visits to the
Marquis of Exeter at Burghley House, and to the Duke of
Beaufort at Badminton, in consequence of the decease of the
Royal Duchess's niece, the. Princess of Mecklenburg Strelitz,
daughter of the Grand Duchess of Mecklenburg Strelitz, the
sister of the Duchess of Cambridge.

Augusta of Cambridge visited her Majesty the Queen Dowager

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
TATTERSALL'S.— YESTERDAY.
The Derby, Oaks, and Chester Cup, were severally touched
upon in the course f a dull afternoon, but without leading to
many alterations. For the first of the three events Attila wtol
backed for 501. at the price quoted, and Chatham for nearly
300/. at 11 and 12 to 1, the backers being numerous and
" fond." The 30 to I class was lessened by the retreat of
Auckland, who although not mentioned at a definitive price, is
obviously a worse favourite by many points. Ballinkeele
in demand at 30 to 1, and the Dirce colt at 1,000 to 30; 1, all
the mares" were backed three times at 1,000 to 30. The most
striking change in the Oaks affected Syren, who was backed
for 1001. at 12 to 1, an improvement of eight points on our
last quotation; the lot ( Scott's) was also backed for a similar
amount at 7to 2. The Cup betting was fiat and unimportant.
By a notice posted in the room, it appears that the subscription
commences on the first of March, and that subscribers will
have to agree to abide by the existing laws, and any new rule.
that hereafter may be made, by the Jockey Club concerning
the room.
