The Royal Visit To Glasgow.

as nothing else could have done , how closely their affections and hopes are entwined around the Royal Family . We offer our humble and hearty thanks to the Princess of Wales for so „;~ , -i < * lvr nmnmnanvinp- vour Roval Highness

on this occasion . Nowhere , we venture to say , in her Majesty ' s dominions is her Royal Highness more beloved than she is in this city ; and it is a special gratification to its many thousands to see her in their midst with her husband and

children . It is our earnest prayer that your Royal Highness and your illustrious Consort may long be spared to each other and to the nation , and that in the sweetness and sanctity of family life which it has been the inestimable privilege

of both of you from your earliest years to enjoy , you may find unfailing solace amid the cares and anxieties of your exalted position . Signed in name and by appointment of the Lord Provost , Mag istrates and Council of the City of Glasgow

and the seal of the said city appended hereto the 17 th day of October , 187 * 5 . " The Prince of Wales , in reply , said : M y Lord Provost and Gentlemen—The Princess joins yvith me in thanking you cordially for your

address , and for the welcome we have received from the ancient city of Glasgow . I sincerely appreciate the terms in which you allude to the Queen , and as her son I am greatly touched by the expressions which you make use of when

speaking of the virtues for which her Majesty is so conspicuous in her public and private capacity . On a former occasion , together with the Princess , I visited your toyvn—the most important and populous in Scotland—for the purpose

of laying the foundation-stone of your neyv University , and we now come to perform a similar duty for your Post-office . I am always glad when I find that circumstances permit me to manifest the interest which I experience in

everything relating to the material prosperity of our great manufacturing and commercial centres , and I have had much pleasure , therefore , in accepting your invitation that I should take a principal part in the proceedings of the ceremony of

to-day . My expedition to the East yvas undertaken with feelings of the greatest interest , but high as were my expectations as to what I should witness in that wonderful country , they fell far short of the reality . I trust that the

result of my visit may prove to have been of service to the many millions of my fellow-creatures in that distant quarter of the globe , and to have united yet more firmly the ties which bind our Eastern possessions with Great Britain . I

venture to express the belief that in this hope I have not been entirely disappointed . One ofthe most intelligent of the native princes has stated , in a letter recently received from him , that one of the results of my visit has been to interest

India and England in each other , and to make them understand each other , and to daily increase England ' s confidence in India and India ' s hopes in England . You refer , in connection with the presence here this afternoon of the Princess of

Wales and my sons , lo the domestic happiness which exists among the members of the Royal famil y . This allusion comes especiall y home to rae at present , when just a year ago I was separated from all those I hold most dear to

commence a long journey to a distant land * . and I can assure you , gentlemen , I shall not easil y forget the ordeal through which I passed on that occasion . In wishing all success to your undertaking , let me not forget to mention the name of

the distinguished founder of the penny postage system , Sir Rowland Hill , to whom we are a " , rich and poor , so much indebted . ( Loud cheers . ) The Rev . Dr . W . H . GrayEdinburghGrand

, , Chaplain , then offered up a prayer , after which tie Grand Master and other officers having duly performed the other duties , the Prince completed tne laymg of the stone by giving three knocks

« vi 1 a S * , and saying , May the Almi ghty Architect of the Universe unl , , " With ben 'S nity "Pan our present staking , and crown the edifice of which we nave now laid the foundation with every sue

J « „™ ny ove ' ' - R ° y al ? artyleft the a sDe % , /* ° Ve t 0 St Enoch Station , whence House ll , i ra , n - , ? y ed thei » to Blythwood - > ° nse , where Colonel Campbell had the honour

of entertaining the Prince and Princess of Wales , Prince John of Glucksburg , and a distinguished party to dinner . At half-past eight a special train conveyed the Royal party from Renfrew to Kilmarnock , where they joined the Pullman limited mail to London .

In the evening the principal streets of the city were brilliantly illuminated , and at Gillmour Hill in the west , and Alexandra Park in the east , there were brilliant disolavs of fireworks .

The University on Gillmour Hill was finelv illuminated ; and Sir Wm . Thomson , the professor of natural philosophy , gave a display of eclipsing light for lighthouses from the windows of his class-room .

The new building , which has been begun under such auspicious circumstances , is likely to prove adequate for the necessities of Glasgow for many years to come . It will occupy the site of the present Post Office , and a large piece of ground immediately to the east of it , and will

extend from Hanover-street to Frederick-street , thus forming one . half of the south side of George-square . Of course the old building still stands , as the work of the postal department mustjie carried on there until the eastern portion of the neyv edifice is completed , when the

staff * will be removed to it , and the remainder of the plan carried out . Judged even by external appearance the present Post Office must long ago have fallen short of the requirements of a city like Glasgow , which , besides having its immense letter carrying and telegraph business ,

is the postal centre for a large portion of the West of Scotland . About as much money has , We believe . rbeen spent ^ on extensions and alterations as would have provided an entirely new structure , but governments are slow to move when large demands are made upon them , and it

is due to Lord John Manners , as Postmaster General , and Lord Henry Lennox , as First Commissioner of Works , to say that if they were not the first to recognise the postal necessities of Glasgow , they were the first to admit them in a practical sense , and to set ' the machinery in

motion for having them met . When completed the new Post Office will cover 2500 yards . It is designed in the Italian style by Mr . Matheson , of Her Majesty ' s Board of Works , Edinburgh , and promises to be architecturally an ornament to the city . The principal elevation , facing George

square , will have a height of 75 feet , consisting of four floors above the level of the street , and will be divided into central and flanking compartments , each pierced by an entrance in the form of arched openings , with coupled columns

of Peterhead granite , supporting an entablature overhead . The external arrangements will be of the most complex kind . All the latest mechanical contrivances for the saving of time and labour will be introduced .

For the accommodation of those privileged to witness the Masonic ceremony the most extensive preparations had been made ; and while it was ultimately found inexpedient to throw the enclosure of the square open to the general body of the public , as large a number of tickets were

issued giving admission within its precincts as it was thought could with safety be allowed . The stone was laid at the north-east corner of the neyv building at the junction of South Frederick Street with the square ; and around this spot a platform , measuring some 200 ft . by 60 ft ., was

laid down for the reception of the Masonic brethren and official dignitaries . On the centre of this platform a raised dais was erected for the accommodation during the ceremony of the Prince and the members of the Grand Lodge .

Springing from the platform to the west , south , and east were three spacious galleries , affording sitting room for about 200 persons ; while a fourth gallery erected in Cochrane Street was allotted to the members of the Choral Union , who were in attendance to sing the Masonic music .

A fund is being raised to enable an old pupil of the Masonic School , Silver Medallist and Maybury Prizeman there , and Associate and Divinity Prizeman of King ' s College , London , to complete his course of study prior to entering- Holy Orders . He is recommended for ordination by the Rev . Charles Woodward , late head Master and Chaplain of the Boys' School ; the Rev . Dr , Barry , Principal of King ' s College , and the Rev . Dr . Plumtre , Professor of Divinity , King ' s College .

Lord Napier of Magdala has been ordered to hold himself in readiness at a convenient spot in the Mediterranean , from whence he may at any moment be directed to proceed with troops to Egypt .

We are in a position to state that Her Majesty ' s Government have determined in the present grave aspect of the Eastern Question to hold an autumnal Session of Parliament .

In view of the threatening ' aspects of affairs in the East , confidential orders have been given by the War Office to the Commander-in-Chief to have three Army Corps in readiness for immediate despatch to the Mediterranean .
