WINDSOR-MONDAY EVENING

(From the Correspondent of the Morning Herald)
In consequence of a desire expressed by his Royal High-
ness Prince Albert to go out with the hounds on Monday
next, accompanied by the reigning Duke of Saxe Coburg
and his brother Prince Ernest, orders have been transmitted
to the Castle for the private apartments to be got ready for
the reception of her Majesty and the court, on which day (if
not on the Saturday preceding) the court will arrive at Wind-
sor, for a few days during the ensuing week.
It is expected that on Monday next the stag will be un-
carted at the Salt Hill, and that her Majesty will drive to
" the meet" accompanied by her royal consort and her dis-
tinguished visitors, and attended by a numerous suite), to
witness the turn out.
Six or seven hunters have been purchased expressly for
the use of the Princes Albert and Ernest. They arrived at
Windsor on Tuesday last, and are now in the stables attached
to Cumberland Lodge.
I send you the following list of Prince Albert's household
as it has reached me, but without vouching for its strict ac-
curacy. I believe it to be correct. It may be considered as
an extraordinary circumstance that the name of Lord Alfred
Paget does not appear on this list. The cutting down of
£50,000 to £30,000 has made sad havoc with the original
household arrangements of the Prince. It is expected that
Lord Alfred Paget will shortly receive a lift in the household
of her Majesty.
The following is the list :
Lord Robert Grosvenor, M.P. for Chester, who was Comp-
troller of the Household from 1830 to the end of 1834, to be
Groom of the Stole, at a salary of £BOO per annum.
Lord Boringdon and Lord George Lennox, Lords in Wait-
ing. Salary, £5OO per annum each.
Colonel Bouverie, of the royal horse guards (blue), and
Lieut.-Colonel Wylde, Equerries in Waiting. Salary £5OO
per annum each.
Sir George Anson and Mr. Seymour, Gentlemen of Ho-
nour, or Grooms of the Bedchamber. Salary £3OO per an-
num each.
Mr. George Anson, private secretary. Salary £BOO per
annum. _ . _ _ .

From this statement it will be perceived that the salaries
to his Royal Highness's household amount to only £4200—
just half the sum named before the legislature reduced his
income two-fifths.
