ARRIVAL OF STEAMER CAMBRIA AT
BOSTON, OCTOBER ..
We are indebted to the Boston and New York
papers for the various articles which we have ex-
tracted from their columns
ARRIVAL OF THE CAMBRIA.
Fifteen days later from England.
The steamer Cambria, Captain Judkins, was tel
egraphed at Boston, As miles from port at halfpast
o'clock on the 3D. She arrived at East Boston
at haifpast S, having made the passage in Is days.
She has brought 80 passengers. We have received
by her our regular files of London papers to Sepem-
Der Is, and the European Times of the 10Th.
The state of Europe continues tranquil, and there
is no political news of important character. The
apprehension of scarcity was removed in England,
and in France, by succession of fine weather for
two or three weeks although the crop did not prom
Use to be so abundant that of last year. The po-
tato disease had prevailed TO an alarming degree in
some parts of England and also in Belgium, France,
and other parts Of Europe. We do not, however,
infer that It's prevalence has been so extensive as to
give reason to apprehend any general scarcity Of
supply of that important article Of food.
The cotton market had sustained the improve
ment which was reported by the last steamer and
during the last week the sales had been active and
TO large amount.
The weather, until the last few days, had been
during the preceding fortnight remarkably fine, and
the harvest had been gathered under favorable cir
| cumstances. The crop, however, was not likely to
be very abundant one. There was, therefore, a
| slight advance in the prices Of grain. The general
average of prices Of wheat returned for the regua-
ton Of the duty for the six weeks ending September
| s, was SIS. l0d. The average of the last week
correspondent exactly with the average of the six.
| The rate of duty was It's. per quarter.
Queen Victoria had returned from her visit to
| Germany, and gone to Osborne House, in the Isle
of Wight, where she arrived on the l0th. She left
Gotha on the Sd, and, returning by way of the
Rhine and the Belgium railroad, had splendid re-
| ception at Antwerp on the 9Th Having accepted a
pressing invitation from the King Of the French to
| visit him at Chateau d'Eu, the Queen and her suite
proceeded from Antwerp in the royal steamer Vic
tora and Albert, to the little harbor of Treport,
of her landing and reception at that place:
"From the low state of the tide when her Majes-
ty approached the French shore, it was found that
the small steamer which had formerly carried the
Queen from the royal yacht to the shore, could not
now be employed. The only wny in which Louis
Philippe could get on board the royal yacht was by
getting into bathng-machne, by which he was
carried far out to sea, that he able to get
board his barge, and thence on board the royal
yacht and SO happened that the Queen would be
obliged to remain for some hours on board or take
the same rather undignifed manner of reaching the
shore. The Queen OF England, however, thought
she might adopt the mode Of getting shore; that
brought the King of the French on board; and thus
| it happened that Queen Victoria and King Louis
Philippe go. on shore together in bathing machine.
The Queen was handed into the barge by the King,
and followed by Prince Albert, the Prince of J oin-
vile, Prince Augustus of Sake Cobourg, and M.
Guizot. In the same order the party entered the
| bathng-machine, which was decorated with tri-
colored flag for the nonce, and speedily dragged by
| horse to terra frma In the meantime royal sa-
lutte fred from all the steamers in the ofing, and
from the battery. The whole party got into chara-
bancs the Queen sitting next to Louis Philippe, and
Prince Albert next to the Queen of the French, and
proceeded to the Chateau d'Eu, amidst the cordial
| If not very boisterous applause Of the assembled
| crowds. After dejeune, Louis Philippe took the
opportunity Of introducing the Queen to the new
Victoria gnery-a splendid gallery intended to COM
memorate her Maiesty's first visit to the Chateau
d'Eu. In the afternoon the royal party drove into
dinner at the chateau, which attended by all the
civil and military authorities Of the place, as well as
| by the guests resident at the chateau"
The Queen and royal party remained at Eu a lit
| tie more than day, and at O'Clock on the after
noon Of the 9th they again embarked for England
1 Having arrived in the harbor of Portsmouth, they
landed at about noon on the following day, and pro.
4 cecded to Osborne House, after an absence from
the kingdom ofnbout 40 days.
