Zbe Court.
THE Queen and Prince Albert remain at Brighton. They have walked almost daily on the Chain Pier ; although at times much incommoded by the crowds that gathered round them. On Monday, some ladies pushed so rudely towards the Queen, that the Princes of Saxe-Coburg were obliged to interfere. The Chain Pier Company have offered her Majesty the exclusive use of the pier for an hour each day ; but the Queen has declined to accept any privilege which would shut out her subjects from their customary promenade.
The Queen Dowager continues well, at Marlborough House. The Dutchess of Gloucester, the Princess Mary of Cambridge, the Princess Sophia, the Duke of Cambridge, and Prince George of Cambridge, have visited her Majesty during the week. The Duke of Cambridge and the Princess Augusta left Grimsthorpe, Lord Willoughby d'Eresby's seat in Lincolnshire, on Monday, for Bel- voir Castle, in Leicestershire, the seat of the Duke of Rutland. They returned to town yesterday.
The Queen's patronage of Paisley shawls, which she has worn lately, has given a considerable impulse to the trade of the place, and orders are numerous.
The Queen Dowager has given 251. towards rebuilding the Kentish Town Chapel.
