On Tailifiesday forenoon, the Queen and Prince Albert walked, nnat- tended, from the Castle, proceeding by the upper foundation of the Military Knights' residences to the Salisbury Tower, to inspect the extensive altera- tions in progress in that building for the accommodation of those of the Military Knights who now reside in the lower foundation, and whose houses are to be taken down as soon as their new residences are completed. Her Majesty remained for some time viewing the Salisbury Tower, which has been entirely restored; the Prince explaining to the Queen the various improvements which have recently been effected in that quarter of the re- gal residence. They returned to the Castle through the Dean's Cloisters.
Visiters have been few. On Monday the Dutchess of Kent arrived at the Castle; and on Wednesday the Queen Dowager and the Hereditary Prince of Saxe Meiningen. The Earl of Aberdeen arrived on the same day; and returned to town on Friday. The Queen Dowager and the Hereditary Prince of Saxe Meiningen rode to Frogmore on Thursday, in a pony carriage; Prince Edward of Saxe Weimar accompanying the Queen Dowager on horseback. The party re- turned to the Castle in the afternoon.
The Duke of Cambridge visited the Dutchess of Gloucester on Tuesday, at Gloucester House.
