WORLD.I The Queen as been much pressed to return to England from the Riviera through Germany, Murder that her Majesty may visit the Grand Duke of Hesse at Darmstadt, and have a meeting there with the Empress Frederick, with the object of settling various private matter.. It has been suggested that the Queen should hold a family council at Darmstedt, but a homeward journey through Germany would involve so much expense and fatigue that it is more probable that her Majesty will request the Grand Duke Ernest to visit her, with his sisters Princess Louise of Battenberg and Princess Alit of Hesse, at Windsor, about the middle of May, in which awe they will accompany the Court to Balmoral. The Queen follows nearly the same routine at Costebelle as at Balmoral. Her Majesty breakfasts alone at nine o'clock, and then works for a couple of hours (more or less) with Sir Henry Ponsoriby, while the Duke of Rutland usually has an audience in the course of the morning. At twelve o'clock the Queen goes for an " airing " in the pine woods in her donkeychaise, and at two o'clock her Majesty lunches, in eompany with Princess Beatrice. About half-past three the Queen starts in an open carriage on a twohours' drive. On returning, tea is served, and then the London newspapers of the previous day and • batch of correspondence occupy at least an hour, and several telegrams are sure to be waiting which require to be answered at once' and which usually involm • second sitting with Sir Henry Ponsonby, The Queen dines between half-past eight and a quarter to nine, and the suite take their meal at the same hour in soother room. Her Majesty reads, or converses with Princess Beatrice and Lady Churchill, after dinner; and she retires to bed about eleven o'clock. Princees Beatrice and Prince Henry of Battenberg were to have been the guests of Lord and Lady Egerton, at Tattoo-park, Cheshire, for three asp during the last week of this month, and they were to have taken part in a charitable function at Stockport; but their visit has just been postponed, as they will pot now return to England so soon as was originally arranged. The Duke of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha has arrived at Nice tojoin the duchess, and they will remain there until after the anniversary of their golden wedding on the 3rd of My. The duke and duchess are to Fey visit to the Queen at Costebelle, and it will be their first meeting with her Majesty for many years past. It is no secret that the duke strongly disapproved of Princess Beatrice's marriage to Prince Henry of llattenberg, and he warmly protested against it, the result being that his relations with the Queen became very strained. There had been previous differences, however, in connection with Sir Theodore Martins "Life of the Prince Consort." in which work the duke considered that he ought to bare figured more prom, bniesenntly...danedotfhwatsa political correspondence rurioosrpoe nenudsesch h ave the Prince. The traeasArrics between the Duke of Saxeb h Courg-Gotha and the Duke and Duchess of RM Iburgh did not tend to improve matters. The Queen's relations with the Duchess of SassCoburg-Gotha have always been very cordial, and 110 w there will be a full reconciliation between het Majesty and the duke, who will probably be created a G.C.B. on the occasion of his golden wedrl:sig, that being the only honour which the Queen can confer upon bins, sobs was made a Knight of the Garter in 1844, directly after the death of his father.
