A PRESENT FROM KING TO A QUEEN.
We were favored yesterday with sight
of the truly beautiful Victoria hat, manu-
featured by Carl King, and intended to be
presented to the young Qneen of England.
1t is now completed, after labor Of
three months, and Mr. King intends to send
it out in the return voyage Of the Sirius, to
show Britannia's queen what Yankee girls
can do. James Gordon Bennett, Esq. is
to be specially delegated to present it to
her Majesty in person. The hat is made
of June grass, which grew at Franklin,
Massachusetts.
This grass springs up about June in I'M
cultivated fields, and shoots out about four
or five top blades. These latter are pluck
ed while very young, dried, bleached, and
braided as soon as possible, and they form
The finest braid in the world. This hat
contains 800 yards of braid there are
four stitches to an inch, consequently the
last contains 46OS0 stitches; it occupied
8 months in perfecting, and will be sent to
the Queen without trimming. 1t will be
exhibited at Niblo's next Tuesday and
Wednesday. On Monday, between and
7 z. M, it is to be seen exclusively by
the gentlemen ofthe Press "
