Cbc Court.
THE visit of the King and Queen of the Belgians does not seem to have caused much bustle at Windsor. The guests at the Castle have been few, and almost exclusively Cabinet Ministers ; the Duke of Wellington, however, had the honour of dining at the Royal table on 'Wednesday, after a ride with the Queen and their Belgian Majesties in the morning. Queen Victoria, who is in excellent health, takes almost daily rides on horseback. King Leopold and his wife visited the Dowager Queen at Bushy on Wednesday. The Duke of Sussex, with Lord John Churchill, went on Thursday to Windsor, on a visit to the Queen. Her Majesty is sitting to Sir David Wilkie for two --portraits. The Duke of Cambridge arrived, in the Batavier from Rotterdam, on Wednesday afternoon. He was received at the Tower-stairs with military honours. In the evening, the Duke visited the Princess Sophia, and afterwards dined with the Duke of Sussex at Kensington. On Thursday, he went to Bushy to visit the Queen Dowager.
