A fair wind conveyed us in six hours from Poole to Cherbourg. It was duskwhen we entered the harbour, and so we had no opportunity of seeing itsbeauty until the following morning, when we ascended a height behind thetown, called the Mont du Roule. It is reached either on foot or bycarriage, the Emperor having ordered a road to be made up to the fortwhich crowns the heights, on the occasion of the visit to Cherbourg, in1858, of her Majesty Queen Victoria.
