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 M:)jesty, 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 opened 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 prr
ceeded through the streets the cheering was most enthusiast[
and all ranks and grades of the residents here seemed anxioi
to testify their loyalty and affection to the utmost of the
power

Shortly before three o'clock Prince Albert went on board
the Excellent, gunnery ship, on his return from which lie 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 .n the port manned their yards and fired a royal
salute. Her 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 majest, returned to the dock-yard, and retired to
the Admiralty-house.

HER MAJESTY'S DEPARTURE.
At ten minutes past two on Tuesday the four travelling car-
riages (drawn by four post-horses each), in which the royal
party arrived at Portsmouth yesterday at noon, drove up in
front of Sir Edward Codrington 's residence, and her Ma-
jesty and Prince Albert having taken a condescending and
kind (indeed perhaps the proper term would be affectionate)
leave of the Misses Codrington and the gallant admiral, the
royal cortege passed along the grand drive out of the Dock-
yard gates.
Previous to this the troops of the garrison, under the com-
mand of Major Swinbourne, and the marine guard of hon-
our, commanded by Captain Robert Ford, one of the oldest
captains in the service, were formed, at twelve o'clock, at
extended files, with an interval of four paces. The depot of
the 19th foot commenced at the Dock-yard gates, next to
which were istationed the 35th regiments and their recruits,
and, on their left, the recruits of the royal marines in suc-
cession, along the Ordinance wall to the quay-gate. From
the quay-gate to the High-street were stationed the recruits
of the 34th regiment, and the 73d and 34th regiments ;' from
thence, along the High-street to the Landport-gate, where
the band of the 34th was stationed, and continued to play
various favourite airs until her Majesty quitted Portsea.
The streets along which the royal cortege passed were
densely crowded with spectators—even more densely than on
the previous day, and the tops and windows of the houses
still displayed a profusion of banners and union jacks. Her
Majesty and his royal highness were greeted with the most
enthusiastic cheering. They acknowledged the loyalty of
the devoted inhabitants of Portsmouth by repeatedly bowing.
It may not he uninteresting to state that at the Royal
Pavilion at Brighton her Majesty expressed to Sir Edward
Codrington a wish that " some of her old shipmates" (al-
luding to the seamen who, while her Majesty and the Duch-
! fss of Kent were staying at Norris Castle, in 1831, were
frequently engaged in the royal barge) should be employed
upon this occasion.
On getting afloat yesterday afternoon, her Majesty
