still
The arrangements here, which were necessarily
more extensive, were generally concluded by about nine
o'clock. At that hour the Mayor and High Sheriff and
their attendants met at the Council-house and procceded
in state to the raiway terminus. His worship rode in a
state carriage drawn by six bays, with coachman and foot-
man in rich liveries. A considerable number of troops of
military of various corps, including splendidly dressed
yeomanry, all under Lord John Somerset, commandant
of the district, were disposed in various parts of the town
to maintain order, in addition to the police force, a body
of which was stationed in the yard where the large ship lay,
on the south side of the Avon. Soon after nine, the rail-
way station, which was splendidly decorated, became
densely crowded by parties who had formed the civic pro-
cession ; a large body of the clergy, headed by the very
Rev. the Dean, Dr. Lambe, many of the noblesse of the
city and elsewhere, and numerous citizens who were ad-
mitted by ticket. From half-past the hour stated, expec-
tation was at its height, and a train preceding the roya
one created some disappointment. A pilot engine, how
ever, soon arrived, and announced the arrival of the
Prince at Batb, which restored all to good humour.
Amongst those present, were the Mayor, James Gibbs,
Esq., all the civic officers ; Thomas Kingston, Esq.,
chairman of the directors of the Great Western Steam-
ship Company ; 0. Bush, Esq. deputy chairman ; Cap-
tain Claxton, the managing director; T. R. Guffy, Esq.,
and other members of the board. The fine band of the
Ist Life Guards was also brought up and played a variety
of pleasing airs. At length, very shortly after ten, the
bell was heard, and in an instant the royal train rapidly
entered the station ; the band played the national anthem,
and the cheering from all sides was most animated. The
Prince alighted amidst redoubled shouts and took his
station on the platform (under the canopy) erected for
him. His Royal Highness it was stated was in his usual
health, but he certainly looked thin and througout the day
pale, if not sallow. He was plainly dressed, as a private
gentleman, with a Newmarket cut upper coat or wrapper,
mixture trousers, and light waistsoat. He wore the star
and order of the garter. but all that was visible of orna-
ment beyond a short distance from his person, was, the
broad blue ribbon hung over his shoulder and under his
upper dress, in the manner of that represented in the pic-
tures of her Majesty before her marriage. He was atten-
ded by the Marquis of Exeter, Lord Warncliffe, the Earl
of Liverpool, Lords Lincoln and Willesley, his private '
secretary G. E. Anson, Esq., and other gentlemen of the
royal household. In the second carriage were the Chair- 1

THE PROCESSION.

The Prince after leaving the platform, and descending
by the fine staircase entered the first carriage in waiting
amidst the cheers of the spectators. He was seated by the
mayor, in his robes and broad gold chain of office, Lord
Wharncliffe, and Lord Lincoln. Two grooms in royal
livery rode on the box behind. In the second carriage
were the Marquis of Exeter, Lord Liverpool, Lord C.
Wellesley, and Colonel Bouverie. The mayor's state car-
riage followed, drawn by six horses, and containing the
sheriffs and town-clerk. In the fourth carriage rode the
dean, Thomas Kingston, Esq., chairman of the steam-
ship company, and J. Savage, Esq., master of the Mer-
chant Venturer's Society. The whole were escorted by
detachments of Dragoon Guards, Yeomanry Cavalry, and
police. They proceeded through the principal streets
which from their direction were available on the occasion,
and also made a detour through the beautiful suburb of
Clifton. The first movement taken from the station was
through Temple-street, a rather rough locality, but some-
what nearer than by Thomas-street, which also (though
better on the whole) is very narrow at one extremity.
We have not space to enter into minute details of the
royal progress, or of the gay and complimentary objects
that ever and anon pt.( tented themselves. No single indi-
vidual indeed, unless he had been seated in one of the carri-
ages, and was well acquainted with and very observant of
the several localities, could have caught in all that was to
be seen by the mind's eye in the course of the route ; and
cur reporter having had but little previous knowledge
(obtained many years ago) of the "outs and ins" of
" the anciente citie of Brestowe," we must be brief, and
necessarily imperfect in our enumceration. Every part
of the line was .0.vd.,1 with multitudinous masses of
bp,otal-nre Clustering on temporal et•'ees. old and new
buildings fitted up, balconies, &c.; and wna,
with reference to Cmsar's triumphal entries into Rome
might be applied with some modification to the Bris-
tolians on this occasion—

" You have climbed up to walls and battlements,
To towers and windows, yea to chimney tops,
Your infants in your arms, and there have sate
The live long day with patient expectation
To see great Albert pass the streets of Bristol;
And when you saw his chariot but appear,
Have you not made an universal shout
That Avon trembled underneath his banks
To hear the replication of your sounds,
Made in his concave shores."

Near Temple Gate a triumphal arch was thrown across
the entire street, covered with evergreens, flowers and
devices, and bearing the inscription " God bless the
Queen and Prince Albert." A little higher a line of
flags crossed the road, one on one side inscribed " Church
and Queen," and one on the other presenting a view of
the old church of St. Mary Redcliff. Other lines of
flags, some with suitable inscriptions, crossed Temple-
street, and Bath-street was equally gay. Manufactories
and private dwellings were also decorated with laurel,
flags, and devices in flowers; and from Bristol-bridge,
with an arch at either end, the vessels in the Avon were
seen " with streamers floating in the wind." On one of
the arches in Redcliff-street a bird of Paradise was dis-
played executed in roses, dahlias and other flomers—also
the crown, with V.R. beneath. On the Bristol side were
equally gorgeous decorations, varied according to the
taste of the designers. In Corn-street the Exchange was
covered with evergreens, and here were platforms oceu-
pied by the boys of Queen Elizabeth's Hospital on one
side of the gate, and the " Red Maids," each with bou
quets of flowers, on the other—presenting an affecting and
pleasing sight. The procession crossed the Draw-bridge,
where the still more numerous vessels were gaily deco-
rated with flags. The populace throughout was immense,
and all in their holiday attire. The neighbourhood of
St. Augustine's Church and College-green (the latter a
large triangle surrounded by noble trees) also evinced its
loyalty, and the churchyard and green were crowded
chiefly by ladies splendidly attired. The warmest mani-
festations of welcome to the Prince were manifested
thaou ghout.
" You might have thought the very windows spake,
So many greedy looks of young and old
Through casements darted their desiring eyes
To gaze upon him."

Every church (and the city is bristled with many fine
old ecclesiastical structures) displayed its flags from
tower or spire. After mounting Park-street, which is full
of picturesque buildings, the procession moved more ra-
pidly towards Clifton, and such was the crowd that the
Prince, who seldom rose from his seat, was but rarely
recognised. Clifton, resembling our Everton in site, and,
like it, overlooking the river, was festooned and decorated
throughout by the opulent inhabitants. At the end of
Royal YoLL-tel lace, a splendid arch was erected
Wing Portland stone, covered with flowers and devices,
and with a musical band playing on the top. The Prince,
on moving to the Mall, enquired for the mansion in which
the Duchess of Kent and the Queen resided some years
ago. He stepped out and visited the promontory near
the Zig-zag Walk, which commands delightful view of the
river. the Rocks of St. Vincent, and the cliffs Old woods
opposite. He appeared to be highly delighted with the
picturesque locality, and was much cheered by the people.
His Royal Highness had not time to visit the summit of
Clifton Down, from which there is a splendid view ; and
the procession, passing the villas of Clifton, descended to-
wards the Bridge Valley-road. The view all round is
beautiful, both of the country and the river. Two steam-
packets crowded with company came up at the time with
bands of music, which heightened the effect. There are
here two rocky cliffs of great height, with a wooded chasm
below, between which it was intended some years ago to
erect a chain bridge; and the piers are built, but the pro-
ject abandoned, at least for the present. A bar of iron is,
however, extended from pier to pier, with two guiding
ropes ; and when the Prince passed under it, a party of
ladies and gentlemen were drawn across it in a car of
basket work, and appeared for the time suspended in mid
air as from a thread. The procession went thence to the
Hotwells, where his Royal Highness was heartily cheered
by the schoolboys of Hotwell House, who stood on a
platform, and displayed a flag inscribed " Trade and
Commerce." Leaving St. Vincent's Parade, the cortege
passed Cumberland Basin, where the vessels were adorned
with flags. It then crossed the dam to the New Cut—a
sort of artificial river—and thence to the yard of the
Great Western Steam-ship Company, where the Prince
and his attendants were heartily welcomed.
On entering the yard they were received by T. King-
ston, Esq., chairman, and the directo s. The Prince was
taken into the company's office, which was fitted up as a
retiring room, and was waited upon by R. Guppy, Esq.,
managing director, by whom and others he was conducted
to the ship, which was close at hand in the graving dock
in which she had been built. A great number of persons
had previously obtained admission to the yard and the
vessel by tickets at a guinea each, which also admitted
them to the banquet (afterwards partaken of) in an ad-
joining wooden building.
On his Royal Highness appearing on deck, (the ascent
to which was by stairs covered with crimson cloth,) the
cheers were loud and long from the company present,
which included many of the nobility and gentry, and a
great number of ladies elegantly attired. He appeared to
be much astonished at the great size of the vessel, which
was then on the blocks, so that her whole bottom and bulk
could be distinctly seen, though not without moving from
point to point, so stupendous is her size, and so extraor-
dinary her length. A passage was opened for him on the
upper or spar deck, so that he might see her from end to
end, and in company with Captain Claxton and others, he
examined her with much interest and curiosity, The at-
tention of all on board was at this time directed to the
contiguous shores and the Avon, and more particularly to
Brandon-hill, a lofty and picturesque common, with a fine
swell, in the neighbourhood of Clifton, and which was
crowded by many thousands of spectators. A great num-
ber of stands were also erected close to the water on the
opposite side, containing their hundreds ; and every ter-
race- road, field, shrubbery, and garden, height above
height, amongst the villas to the west, was equally crowded
with gay assemblages full of curiosity and enthusiasm.
The river was also thick with vessels, from ships to wher-
ries—all crowded. Our reporter, who has seen many
public sights, states, that he never witnessed one so ani-
mated, or so striking, whether as regarded the mass of
persons congregated, or the sylvan and romantic beauty
of the scenery on all sides. The top sides of the vessel,
with her six masts decorated with numerous flags of all
nations, amongst which the British and the American
(U.S.) were most conspicuous,—was visible from all these
points, and presented a very noble appearance, though
she was considerably below her line of floatation as re-
garded the level of the river close adjacent. The Prince
descended into the saloons fore and aft, and inspected all
the accommodations, with the extent and elegance of
which he expressed much delight and astonishment. He
then inspected the engine room, with the machinery yet
fixed, and afterwards descended into the dock by a temporary
inclined plane, and surveyed her stupendous yet sym-
metrical hull from the keel plate upwards. He also ex
amined the Archimedean screw (temporarily formed of
wood) by which she is to be propelled, and it was turned
round from within and its principle and action explained
to him and his suite, who expressed their wonder and
delight at its ingenuity—the comparatively small space
which it occupies—the great advantages it presents over
the ordinary cumbrous paddle-wheels both in lightness
and in " stowage" (if we may so term it)—and in its al-
lowing the vessel to carry sail without detriment to her
power of steam propulsion. The Prince and his attend-
ants, as well as the company generally, soon afterwards
retired to the banquet, before noticing which, however,

The vessel is well put together with iron plates and angle-iron
ribs, of great strength, and is also bound with rods on the
tension principle. She has six masts, and it is said will
spread, when required, 1700 yards of canvas. Her rig is
that of what may be called a six-masted schooner, with
fore and aft sails, and lugger topsails, with the exception
of the mainmast, (the second from the bow,) which will
carry a square mainsail and topsail over it. She has four
decks, and the upper, or spar deck, is 308 feet in length.
The engines are somewhat un the patent plan of,,Sir Mark
Brunel, with the cylinders, i❑ place of being upright form-
ing an angle of about 60 degrees. The main shaft for the
turning of the screw, and which is of great length and
large diameter, was made at the Mersey iron works, in
this town; and is itself a great curiosity. But the most
interesting portion of the whole structure is the screw it-
self by which alone the ponderous mass is to be propelled.
It is precisely the same in principle as that invented, as
applicable to ships, some years ago, by Mr. F. P. Smith,
who visited this port, three years
medes, in which it was first fitted o

large scale, and

performed well, as we noticed at the time ; but in the
Great Britain it is modified slightly, by being divided into
four arms, or fans, somewhat similar to those of a wind-
mill, but broader at the extremities. We do not think
this will be found an improvement upon the original plan,
as it appears to us to be too small in lateral surface to pro-
pel so large a vessel A small working model of this and
of the whole engine, as to be completed for the ship, was
exhibited to the visitors to the "launch" in the mould-
room. It formed, in the outer frame work, &c., the en-
tire section or part of the ship in the middle that will be
occupied as the engine-room, and by turning a crank
handle the whole engine and screw, as if at the stern, was
set in motion. A large drum, and a small one, driven by
the former by means of a chain, are purposed to be used
to give sufficient velocity to the propeller; but we rather

THE SCENE BEFORE THE BANQUET

We have before noticed that Brandon Hill and the
heights, terraces, stands, and houses were crowded with
anxious spectators, gayly clad. On the hill, on which
stood many thousands, they resembled, when the sun
shone upon them throughout the forenoon, a dense and
immense bed of variegated flowers. About one o'clock,
however, rain began to descend rather copiously, but only
in succesive sunshiny showers, which renicv2.l only a com-

paratively few of the gazers. The first downfall, however,
produced a curio.. effect tm the aspect of the scene. In
moment, perhaps, 10,000 umbrellas, at least, were raised.
The whole hill, and the other Cu to be
covered closely with calico and silk, and it required no
great stretch of imagination to conceive that the flowers
had instantly died, and that brown and green mushrooms
had as rapidly sprung up in
.their places. The rain con-
tinued while the company in the yard enjoyed themselves
at THE BANQUET.

This took place in a large wooden building, opening
from the building yard and close to the water. It had
previously to the great occasion bee❑ used as a smith's
shop, but had been metamorphosed into a splendid pavi-
lion, covered interiorly with alternate breadths of crimson
and white glazed calico. The rows of pillars were also
made, by the aid of the same material fixed on in folds,
strongly to resemble fluted columns of white marble. The
roof was similarly covered and festooned, and the beams
hung with and concealed by valances cut out in the style of
Louis Quartorze, which had a fine effect. There were three
lengths of tables, each four tables in width, running lon-
gitudinally, and a horse-shoe table at the upper end for
the principal guests. About 520 sat down to the repast,
—a cold collation, with jellies, confectionery, fruit, wines,
&c. There were many ladies present. Mr. Thos. Kings-
ton, chairman of the board of directors, presided ; the
Prince on his right band. Amongst the other distinguished
guests were, his Excellency the Prussian Ambassador and
lady, the Hon. Edward Everett, Ambassador of the United
States, the Sardinian Ambassador, the Right Hon. Lord
Wharnciiffe, the Marquiss of Exeter, the Earl of Lincoln,
Lord Granville Somerset and lady, Lord John Somerset,
the Hon. Paget, the Hon. Grantley Berkeley, M.P.,
the Hon. Henry Berkeley and Mr. P. W. S. Miles,
M.P.'s for the city, Mr. P. J. Miles and lady, &c.

After the viands, &c., had been partaken of the health
of the Queen was given with great enthusiasm, and after-
wards that of her royal consort. The Prince replied :
" Mr. Chairman, my Lords, Ladies, and Gentlemen, I
thank you for the honour you have done me in drinking
my health, and I assure you it affords me great pleasure
that I have come here to-day, and I shall always bear a
lively remembrance of the cordiality with which you have
received me. Allow me now to propose the health of the
' Mayor, and prosperity to the city and trade of Bristol.' "
(Applause.)
The Mayor, in suitable terms, returned thanks for the
honour.
" His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, and the
rest of the Royal family."
" The Army and Navy," &c.

Amongst the numerous visitors to the banquet occupy-
ing the nearest seats to the royal table we observed Mr.
F. P. Smith, the projector and patentee of the Archime-
dean screw propeller, who also visited Bristol in the
Archimedes about three years ago, at which time the
Great Britain was intended to be fitted with paddle-
wheels ; but in consequence of the satisfactory perform-
ances of the Archimedes, the proprietors of the Great
Britain determined on fitting their ship on the same prin-
ciplt, and the necessary alterations were forthwith com-
menced for that purpose. Mr. Smith could not fail to be
gratified on the auspicious event of " launching " the

that is likely to work so great a change in steam navigation
and enterprise. We rejoice that he has in so short a time
had the gratification of seeing his views carried out on so
magnificent a scale as in the Great Britain—independently
of many other ships and vessels that have been and are
now being fitted on the same plan.
Several other toasts were drank, and the whole com-
pany went to

THE "LAUNCH" OR FLOATING.
During the banquet the water had been let into the
dock in which the vessel lay, and before it was concluded,
named at 25 minutes before two o'clock, she floated up
majestically from the blocks on which she had rested, tne
bands on board and on shore playing the National
Anthem. There was great crushing to witness the
" christening." An iron caissoln had kept the water out
of the dock had been towed away, and as the vessel
was all afloat and in tow of a small " screw" steamer, the
Prince and his immediate friends, came along the gang-
way to the tent, and was loudly cheered. The noble
vessel was towed out of the dock shortly after 3 o'clock,
and as her starboard bow passed the tent, a lady (Mrs.
Miles, to whom the Prince had deputed the honour of the
ceremonal) broke a bottle of wine against her, and gave
her the name of " The Great Britain." Bands of music
meanwhile played " Rule Britannia ;" and in a
few minutes she was towed out of the dock,
and appeared conspicuous, in all her magnificent pro-
portions and length, in the broader waters of what is
called " the float," or river. The Prince and his suite,
after remaining a short time to witness the scene, left the
yard in their carriages, and took their way along .the
