Dladen, Euryalus,
Racoon. Victoria and Albert, Curacao,
Black Eagle, Fairy Queen,

The Osborne remained behind by permission of
her Majesty, as the Lords of the Admiralty were
anxious to avail themselves of an opportunitv of
Inspecting more closely the docks, arsenal and pub
lie buildings of the town, the necessary permission
! having been granted by the Emperor to their
! lOrdships. As the squadron had reached
the outer port, the royal yacht steamed maiestical
ly between the two lines and shooting ahead of the
larger ships passed out to sea; the crews of the
! squadron on the rigging cheering her Majesty with
such effect that it was heard amid the deafen-
| ing roar OF the cannon, which resounded from
| every ship and fort in the place.
The French fleet gave its finest and its part
ing salute, which might almost have re-echOed from
the English shore, so grand, so close, and
tanned was the fire for more than twenty minutes,
gun alter gun running along each tier like train
OF fire, till the frame of the listener seemed shaken
with the reyerberation. Rarely, indeed, can such
a cann0nad2 have been heard before and perhaps
never, when the object has been to give purely
peaceful welcome. Away at the farthest redoubt
ana most distant fort-trom the massive, wide
spreading easements of Querqueville-tier upon
ter OF heavy iron ordnance mingled their roar with
sea and land. Slowly rose the curtain of thick
smoke, gradually fading away into thin wreathng
vapor, rising higher and higher till the hulls of the
great ShlpS could be seen slowly steaming out of the
harbor Again little clearer, and the Emperor
ana Empress could be seen standing upon the poop
OF the Bretagne, apart from a group of glitterinr
oihcerS looking towards the fast receding form Of
the royal yacht, which, with a fair wind steamed
for Osborne.

THE HARVEST ON THE CONTINENT.
Ihe Eeho A9rtcote says: The wheat harvest is
nearly terminated in France. Generally speaking,
it will not be of such good quality as that of 1851
and will weigh on an average four to five kilo-
grammes less per hectolitre. The harvest of 1858
will consequently be less than the preceding; but
it must not be forgotten that that of 1851 was
above the average.
From Sweden it is reported that the accounts
from the governors of provinces say the crops show

favorably spoken of, and an imperial ukase has ex-
tended the time during which corn may be import
ed free of duty in that country.
