ARRIVAL OF HER MAJESTY AND PRINCE AL-

BERT AT PORTSMOUTH

PORTSMOUTH, MONDAY AFTERNOON. - Her Majesty
and Prince Albert, accompanied by Duke Ferdinand of
Saxe Coburg and his sons, arrived here about 12 o'clock to-
day. From an early hour the inhabitants had been making
preparations to welcome her Majesty, and flags and banners
were suspended, not only across the immediate streets through
which her Majesty would pass, but throughout nearly the
whole of the streets of the borough. The day being, unlike
its predecessor, remarkably fine, thousands of persons were
out to witness the arrival of her Majesty; and numerous
carriages, containing well-dressed ladies and others, pro-
ceeded a short distance from the town to meet their sove-
reign and follow the royal cortege into Portsea. At Mile-
end a splendid triumphal arch was erected, and another at
Charlotte-street. From Lion-gate to the dockyard, the
streets were lined by the 32nd, 34th, and 73rd regiments.
The guard of honour, consisting of the Royal Marines, and
the grenadier companies of the 32nd, 34th, and 73rd, were
under the command of Major Vander Meulen, of the 73rd,
the senior major now doing duty with the troops in this gar-
rison. The guard of honour was headed by the band of the
Royal Marines. The ropemakers of the dockyard, accord-
ing to previous custom on the occasion of a royal visit, met
her Majesty at Mile-end, and preceded the royal carriage on
its route to the dockyard. They were dressed in white
jackets and trousers, and had wands and blue sashes, on
which were inscribed " God save the Queen !"
It was understood that his grace the Duke of Wellington
would arrive at the George Hotel between five and six o'clock
yesterday. Long before that hour hundreds of persons had
assembled in the immediate neighbourhood to welcome him.
Intelligence was, however, received about five o'clock, that
his grace would not be in Portsmouth until half-past nine.
At that time, notwithstanding the inclemency of the weather,
a vast concourse of the inhabitants had collected, and when
his grace drove up to the George he was loudly cheered, and
his reception was enthusiastic in the extreme. His grace was
up as early as seven o'clock, and walking, unaccompanied
by any person, in the dockyard. At about a quarter to ten
o'clock he left the George, in an open carriage, to meet her
Majesty.
At daylight in the morning the Admiralty flag was hoisted
on board the Alfred, 50, Commodore Purvis, and was saluted
by all the shipping. Upon the arrival of her Majesty at the
Lion-gates, which were closed, she was met by the governor
of the garrison, General Sir Hercules Pakenham, and the
gates were ()veiled upon the demand of her Majesty. The
instant she was within the walls the royal standard was
hoisted, and the guns of the forts, and of the shipping in the
harbour, and at Spithead, commenced firing a royal salute,
and the latter manned their yards. As her Majesty pro-
ceeded through the streets the cheering was most enthusiastic,
and all ranks and grades of the residents here seemed anxious
to testify their loyalty and affection to the utmost of their

power.
Shortly before three o'clock Prince Albert went on board
the Excellent, gunnery ship, on his return from which he ac-
companied her majesty to the St. Vincent. The Duke of
Saxe Coburg and his sons, and his grace the Duke of Wel-
lington, also went aboard the St. Vincent. Upon her majesty
going on board. the royal standard was hoisted, and the whole
of the ships in the port manned their yards and fired a royal
salute. leer majesty then went on board the Royal George
yacht, where again upon embarking the royal standard was
hoisted and the ships saluted. After leaving the Royal
George her majesty returned to the dock-yard, and retired to
the Admiralty-house.
