Queen Emma.
The latest heard of our beloved Queen is that she is staying at Hyeres, in the south of France. We are greatly pleased to say that she is in excellent health, and so are her attendants. By the kindly invitation of His Highness, the Naval Minister, she toured the places where arms are stored, and the harbor of Toulon, and she was well received with all honors appropriate for her stature. There was given a grand reception on the evening of the day on which she went there.
The Queen plans to go to tour Italy, and to return by way of the Helvetic state. Emalani kindly agreed to the urging by the Emperor of France to return for a bit with him and to stay for some weeks in Paris, and from there to Britain and all the way back to Honolulu nei.
[There is much printed in the Hawaiian-Language Newspapers about Queen Emma's travels abroad. Here is but one report informing her people of her progress.]
