FROM "THE TIMES OF JUNE 24.] The most picturesque and dramatic incident of the whole Progreis was witnessed at Temple Bar, where the Lord Mayor of London awaited the arrival of their Majesties and welcomed them us they entered the confines of the City. To watch this pleasant little episode was to understand why foreigners have such a rast respect for the Lord Mayor. His office appeals to their imagination, and they perceive both ite glamour and its dignity. To them, as he ought to bo to us, the Lord Mayor is an historic figure, a symbol of the ancient traditions and liberties of England. They estorm the office THE SAME TO-DAY AS IN with its resonant title; and truly it is an office closely and proudly interwoven with the earlier history of this country. Yesterday's ceremony at Temple Bar was a tribute to the venerable privileges of the City, and carried one back to the days when the relations between the

ADDRESS FROM SOUTH LONDON." The King and Queen had a magnificent rooption. As soon as the carriage stopped the Mayor of Southwark stepped forward and hand- ed the Address of the South London Borough Concile to the King. Tlie Address contained the following paragraph:
We rejoice that his Majesty, in initiating extensive improvements in the estates in Nonth London of the Duchy of Cornwall to the great benefit of the inhabitants, especially those of the poorer classes, has shown a practical appreciation of one of the most important branghes of local gororament.
THE KING'S BERLY.
The King received the Address with a saluto, and handed to the Mayor the following reply.
Your loyal and dutiful Address has greatly added to the pleasure of the loving welcome given us by the inhabitants of the South London boroughs.
The Queen and I are grateful to you for your appreciation of the efforts we make to know and understand the interests of all our subjects. It is our earnest wish that the most distant of our Dominions may feel that they are as much within our thoughts and our care as the heart of the grest Capital which we traverse to-day,
By the improvement in the South London estates of the Tushy of Cornwall, to which you make such generous reference, I hope to do something locally to mitigate and alleviate tho the conditions under which so many of poorer classes dwell. The Queen and I will gladly do anything we can to encourage and aid you in all wise
which you take for the improvement of the condition of all the of the people and in the discharge
