POSTSCRIPT •
SATURDAY NIGHT.
The accounts of the Queen and Prince Albert conic down to Monday. They left Mayence before eight o'clock that morning, in a close carriage and four; with a single German postillion, riding, after the fashion of his country, on one of the wheel-horses. The escort was a small troop of Prussian hussars. The travelling was not performed with English speed, and the party did not enter Frankfort-on-the-Maine till half-past ten. Her Majesty did not alight, but received in her carriage the compliments of divers Ambassadors, and in five or ten minutes proceeded on her journey. The party were expected to reach Wurzburg at nine o'clock that night; Coburg on Wednesday.
The King and Queen of the Belgians passed through Frankfort on Sun- day, for Coburg. The Dutchess of Kent and a large party had already assembled there, awaiting the arrival of Queen Victoria and the Prince Consort.
