Ebt Qtourt.

THE Princess of Hohenlohe-Langenbourg, with the Princesses Eliza, Adelaide, and Feodere, took leave of the Queen and Prince Albert on Tues- day morning, and journeyed by way of London and Dover to the Continent.

Sir Robert and Lady Gardiner, and Sir George and Lady Grey, arrived at the Castle on Monday and Tuesday, and departed on the following days.

Her Majesty's guests, royal and gentle, having all departed, the Queen went on Wednesday with Prince Albert to pay a visit to the Queen Dow- ager, at Bentley Priory.

On Wednesday, Queen Victoria and Prince Albert, with a numerous party of visiters assembled at the Priory, made a trip to Harrow School. The Queen's intention had been made known only a few hours before the party left the Priory; but the gentry on the road erected arches of flowers and wove long avenues of evergreen wreaths on her route, and hailed her with warm greetings as she passed.

Her Majesty rode in an open pony carriage with the Princess Louisa Hohenlohe-Schillingsfurst, and the Marchioness of Douro and Lady Ashley. Prince Albert rode on horseback, in the company of Prince Edward of Saxe-Weimar, Earl Howe, the Earl of Denbigh, and other gentlemen.

The visiters were met at the gates, and conducted to the school-room, by Dr. C. J. Vaughan, and the Lower and Assistant Masters. After a due exhibiting of' school performances, and pointing out prize-gainers among the boys, the Queen was shown the names of eminent men carved by them- selves in past times on their school-desks. "Samuel Parr," " Brinsley Sheridan," " Byron," " R. Peel," "Percival," " H. Temple" (Viscount Palmerston), "J. Robinson " (Earl of Ripon), and " Althorp " (late Earl Spencer). The library was visited, and the Royal autograph added to the list of signatures: the name of "Byron" being again observed there, with that of "R. Peel," as speech-reciters in 1804. A pilgrimage was made to the church, to see "what is now generally called Byron's Tomb' (poor Peachy's, whose less brilliant name is forgotten), from the fact of Byron's having occasionally, or, perhaps, habitually, resorted to that spot."

The usual favour of a week's additional holyday at Midsummer next having been bespoken by the Queen for the boys, and Prince Albert having finished his gossip on education matters with the Head blaster, the Royal party departed through the village towards home,—lingering on the hill to view the beautiful prospect by a gorgeous sunset. The Queen and Prince Albert returned to Windsor Castle yesterday.
