THE Quxus and the Royal Family left Osborne early on Monday morn- ing, arrived in Portsmouth at ten o'clock, and in town at one. The Queen dined at Buckingham Palace and set out at half-past eight on her night journey northwards. The first royal saloon (fitted up as a sleeping apartment) was occupied by her Majesty and the Prince Con- sort; the second by the young Princesses and Lady Churchill, and the third by the young Princes. The train arrived at Edinburgh at eight o'clock on Tuesday morning, ten minutes in advance of the appointed time, and the royal travellers, accompanied by the Prince of Wales, pro- ceeded to Holyrood Palace. Starting on the following morning from Edinburgh, where the Prince of Wales took leave of them, they arrived at Balmer* shortly after six o'clock in the evening.
