AUGUST p The Queen and the Royal party as.
sembled here al present are nving IN comparative
retirement. There is complete change ia the ha-
bits OF the Court from those fo which ,ney ac-
customed at home Her Majesty rose at an early
hour this morning, and walked about the grounds

Queen expressed a wish to breakfast in the open

on terrace, before one OF the fronts OF Rosenau

Jesty walked again in the grounds with Lady Can

spots in the surrounding scenery, at her Maesy's
desire.


The Duke and Duchess of SAKE Coburg Gotha ar
rived at Rosenau IN the course OF the morning from
the cottage Schweizerei, and at one O'Clock the
whole party proceeded 10 Coburg, and alighted at
the Residenz, where they remained whilst the pre-

this country was formally subjected; II has been
continued for the last three hundred years, and is
kept up with funds long since bequcathed tor the
purpose byvarlous charitable people 1t tell on to-day;
and in that spirit of simple enjoyment and reaxa-
ton from courtly ceremony which has characterised
the visit OF the Queen here because 1t seems TO be
the custom of the country, her Majesty and the
whole royal party came down from the Palace to be
present at the gay scene, and ceres, since its
\ first establishment, was this ceremony celebrated
| with so much eclat as on this day. In spacious
meadow in one OF the suburbs of Coburg, pavilons
were erected, and portion OF the ground opposite
these pavlllons was fenced IN with festoons and gar
lands. In the pavllions tables were laid for dinner
OF which the Royal visitors were to be the parakers
Besides the pavlllons there were also many other
booths, travelling theatre, and most grotesque
roundabout, with hobby horses and sedges, mount
ed on which were musicians playing most musical
polka, and girls and boys in fantastic dresses This
was the preparation on the ground. The festival
was of a different kind All the children of the
town schools, girls and boys, formed, according TO
custom, IN procession, to the number Of 600 or 700
The girls were all dressed in white with green RIB
bons-ther heads adorned with ivy wrealhs and
their dresses testooned in like manner. Some wore
fancy co-tumes-the Highland dress, the Greek
Dress and there hocks Of the pret,iest little
sheplerdesses in the world. The greater number of
the boys also wore fancy costuines--,hey were
dressed as jagers, Highlanders c,reeks, Turks, AL
banlans TO say nothing OF one two first little
Napoleon Bonapartes, and an uneXceponabe Cap
tam Macheath. The scene was one which Wat
teau a Wllkie, or a Boucher would have delighted
to draw.


The moving little troop of mummers preceded the
royal party to the festival ground marching to mu-
sic, where they were formed into lines The Queen
with her iustrious host and hostess, and the whole
OF the royal party arrived on the ground at quarter
to tour o'clock and when her Majesty alighted and
walked into the tented field, leaning on the arm of
the Prnce-Consort, a burst of joyous greeting and
welcome rent the air.


As soon as the royal promenade was over, the
children's came. They formed In procession, and
walked round the enclosure to the music of the
bands, passing severaly by the Queen. It was
pretty sight. The little fair-haired girls in their
chaste costume of white and ivy wreaths, and the
strange, and often grotesque mixture OF the fancy
dresses OF the boys The wholewas one ofthe gayest
and most animated scenes we ever remem er to
have witnessed. The part of the whole affair which
VIII most surprise an English reader is, that in
very lew minutes after the procession was over, the
whole royal party sat down 10 dinner in the pavilion,
amidst all the noise OF the larrlng bands, and the
cashng OF the cymbas, and under the gaze of thou
