the entrance Of her Majesty. The Herads and PGrs III

and soon the gorgeous cavalcade Of Ministers and
at officers Of State Lords-in- aiting and Pages
| Of Honor swept in. Her Majesty was led to the
throne by Prince Albert who thereupon took his usual
place in the chair Of State upon Her Majestys left

the Lord Chancellor, and the other Ministers took
Their pas at the steps OF the throne the Queens
night.
Having taken her seat on the throne her Majesty
bowed as usual to the assemblage in token of her
wish that they should resume their seats. At the
con mencement Of the session. when large number
OF peeresses are present this gesture of Royalty is
always understood and acted upon but upon the
present occasion the female portion Of the assemblage
seemed TO be made up Of the younger relatives aud
friends OF noble families who, not being expert
enced, took no heed of the gracious signal. Again
the Queen made the usual gesture, and with
marked indication Of her wish, but still the Assem-.
blaee remained standing Her Majesty now called
the Prime Minister TO her aid and whispered
thing to the Earl of Aberdeen who by wave Of his
hand succeeded in communicating the gracious wish
OF her Majesty TO Der fair subjects.
Her Majestys faithful Commons made a more de-
than is their wont into the presence
Of Royalty. They usually come surgng and tumbl-
ing into her Majestys presence with buoyant and
hilarious manner: but upon the present occasion,
probably from the consciousness that they were
bringing up the results of an abortve and wasted
session they entered the house and took their places
al the bar in quiet and subdued manner, strangely
contrasting with the noise and tumult which usually
prevail
The address from the Commons having been de-
Gyertd and other torDalities accomplished the Lord
Chancellor, kneeling, presented her Majesty with
copy Of her royal speech, which the Queen proceed
ed 10 read in a clear and distinct tone of voice,
follows:
