TO SEE ER MAJESTY. LADIES ARE CURIOUS TO GET « GLIMPSE OF THE QUEEN. How People Crowd the Sireets Where Her Majesty Will Pass—The @Qucen’s Dressos—Mer Healih is Good, /. London correspondent of a New York paper writes :—~On the rare occa- sions when the Queen does come to Lon- con her subjects always show eagerness to catch sight of her, and the aspect of the metropolis undergoes quite a curious change when the Royal standard is floating from the roof of Buckingham Palace. By merely walk- ing about the West End I am certain } could tell that the Queen hac arrived. cven if the daily paper had not already tuld mé so. There are various signs and portents which mean royalty in residence. One of the most interesting and quaint of these is the old ladies. When the Queen happens to be in Lon- don the observer will not fail to note the swarm of old ladies that sweep like a swarm of locusts through the streets und lanes of our city. They are all try- ing to see the Queen. Glance at any policeman and you will find him sur- rounded by old ladies, who expect him to be acquainted with every though: that passes through the mind of what Carlyle calls “ Majesty.” Where will Majesty drive, and when ? From what gate of Buckingham Palace will the carriage of Majesty issue. and what precise hour ? These and a thousand ther questions. drive the men in blue almost to despair, when the court fs in London. But the energy and determin- ition of ladies desirious of seeing the Qneen overcome all obstacles. They will stand in the mud or frost for hours cn the chance of catching a glimpse of the royal carriage, and many of them travel up from distant country places merely in order to wave a handkerchief. and give vent to a murmur of welcome. The uncertainty that prevails as to the Royal movements sometimes leads to rather comica) scenes. About half-past four on the last drawing-room day I was walking quietly up Piccadilly, when I noticed a gradual haste over- taking the people whom I met. Sedate ladies suddenly began to hustle, great SHOP BOYS OPENLY SHOUT, and ran, even serene individuals tn top hats and fur coats caught the general infection, and there was a regular stam- pede. All who met me were continu- ally on the trot. When I looked back lt found the cause of the confusion to be the Horse Guards returning from the Palace. These good people fancied they were escorting the Queen on her afternoon drive. I was at Victoria sta- tion to witness the royal arrival, and the crowd extended from the station yard all the way down Buckingham Palace road. The train was a quarter of an hour late in reaching the ter- minus, and the ten royal carriages, all of them horsed with fine bays, had a long while to wait. The Queen’s Indian attendant drove out of the yard first in a brougham, accompanied by two ladies, then came the Guards, then the outriders in scarlet, and then the Queen’s carriage and four. The HOODS WERE THROWN BACK. by command of Her Majesty, so that all could plainly see the sovereign. who was very warmly wrapped up, and who bowed frequently in response to the loud cheering and waving of handker- chiefs. The Empress Frederick, who looked as if she had a cold, sat at the Queen's left hand, and Princess Henry of Battenberg was opposite. The Queen seemed to sit much lower in the car- riage than usual, I thought. The Em- press Frederick, who was of course, in black, wore a very long thin black veil, which blew about in the bitter wind as the carriage went by. Princess Henry was looking the picture of health and very handsome. She holds herself splendidly, even regally, and was dressed in a beautiful light fawn coat, trimmed with sable, and wore a hat with violets. The horses trotted very slowly, so that every one was able to have a good look at the Queen, who is in excelent health and spirits at pre- sent. THE QUEEN'S DRESSES. It has been pointed out that those who grumble at the Queen’s simplicity of dress are mistaken in thinking that she dees not encourage trade. During the past year she had nearly seventy gowns made by one dressmaker alone, and these ordinary ones, not court dresses. The reason why people imagine that the Queen never has new things is that the new are exactly like the old. Al- Ways averse to change, merely for fashion’s sake, the Queen insists on having her gowns all made alike, sv that she may avoid the feeling that she has on néw clothes, and be as comfort- able as in the old. On either side of the todice she has a small pocket—one for her watch, the other for her eye-glasses —and they must be in exactly the old position, so as to be found without trouble. Just below the collar—wnich, by the way, is never allowed to be of fashionable height or tightness—is a secret pocket for the KEY OF THE DESPATCH BOX. Moreover, no matter what the ma- terial of the gown, a piece of crape has to be placed upon it somewhere, the Queen having kept up this custom ever since her widowhood. Her Majesty is very particular about her gloves, she has very small hands, of which she is, perhaps, a trifle proud. Though she possesses magnificent furs, she very sel- dom wears them, hence her adoption of sable—and such sable !—at the draw- ing-room caused considerable satisfac- tion. Sealskin she cannot endure, and she even dislikes the smell of it. It was noticed at the drawing-room last week that a great many of the young ladies, and not a few also of those who have reached middle age, wore their hair puffed out over the ears, in the new Parisian fashion. The style is rather more universally becoming than some of those which have been the rage late- ly. English hairdressers do not, how- ever, cover the whole of the ear, as the mode is in Paris, and the hair, which is very thickly waved, is raised at each side of the center parting, whilst the puff, which partialiy covers the ears, ts held in its place against the coils at the back by little jeweled combs, Proved.
