The pupils are rehearsing Spohr's Last Judgment and Beethoven's Pastoral Symphony, for the purpose of per forming them at a public concert, which is to take place shortly. The Duke and Prince George of Cambridge, at tended by Baron Knesebeck and Colonel Cornewall, went to Richmond yesterday, but returned to town in the afternoon. The Duke of Devonshire will return to Chatsworth about the middle of the next week. The Duke and Duchess of Sutherland, the Mar quis of Stafford, and the Ladies Leveson Gower occupied the Queen's box at Covent-Garden Theatre on Tuesday evening. The Duke of Devonshire gave a grand dinner at Devonshire house, on Wednesday, to the Duchess of Suther land, Earl and Countess Granville, Lord Leveson, the Coun tess of Carlisle, Lady Elizabeth Howard, Lord and Lady Wharncliffe, Lady Harriet Baring, and Mr. and Lady Mary Vyner. The Earl of Wilton left town yesterday for Melton Mowbray. . _ The Earl and Countess of Lichfield had a dinner party on Wednesday evening at their residence in St. James's square. Amongst the company were—The Earl and Coun tess of Jersey, the Earl and Countess of Southampton, the Countess of Chesterfield, the Countess of Wilton, Colonel and Mrs. Anson, Lord Burghersh, and Mr. C. Greville. Lord Sefton has perfectly recovered from his long and severe indisposition, and was able to accompany a party of friends to the Duke of Bedford's box at Drury-lane on Wednesday, to see the new ballet of the Daughter of the Danube. _ _ Lord Macdonald left Mivart's hotel on Wednesday, to join the Melton Mowbray hunt. The late Louisa Viscountess Stormont, whose death was announced yesterday, was the third daughter of Cuthbert Ellison, Esq. Her Ladyship was married on the Bth of April, 1829, to Lord Stormont, eldest son of the Earl of Mansfield, and Member for the county of Perth. She has left two children, the Hon. Louisa Nina, born on the 18th of July, 1830, and a son, born on the 22d of July, 1835. Her death took place on Friday last, the 24th ultimo, at the Palace of Scone, in Perthshire, of which the Earl] of Mansfield is hereditary keeper. THE QUEEN'S BAND.—The band which is now in the course of forming by direction of her Majesty will con sist of wind instrument performers only, who will attend at the Palace in St. James's Park, also at Windsor, when the Court is there. Several of the professors who belonged to Queen Adelaide's private band, and who, previously to that, were members of George the Fourth's splendid band, will be in cluded in the present one, as well as some of the students of the Royal Academy of Music. Yesterday a general meeting of the subscribers to the National Benevolent Institution was held at the Free mason's Tavern, when fifteen persons were elected to vacan cies on the pension list. The distinguishing feature of this institution is, that its assistance is afforded to a class virtually excluded from the benefits of ordinary charity—the superior middling. The proceedings were very gratifying, and the arrangements highly creditable to the managing body. Mr. Ranger, who is so attractive at the Haymarket Theatre in The Romantic Widow, is a gentleman of consider able property, who merely acts for amusement, and the name of Ranger is assumed to please his friends. The attraction of Sheridan Knowles's comedy of The Love Chace is unprece dented in the annals of the modern legitimate drama. Tues day next will be the 50th night of its representation, when new scenery, dresses, &c., are promised. The following fashiona bles have visited the Haymarket Theatre this week :—The Duke of Rutland, Duchess of Cleveland, Marchioness of Sa lisbury, Countess of Lichfield, Countess of Chesterfield, Earl and Countess of Jersey, Lord and Lady Aylmer, Lady A.

Prince J. Gargal in, after seeing his family embark at Dover, will return to-morrow to the above hotel. PRICE sd. ELOPEIMENT FROM BATH. An elopement took place from Bath on Tuesday evening, which, in the neighbourhood of the transact.on, and amongst the immediate friends and relatives of the parties concerned, has been the cause of no inconsiderable surprise. From motives of delicacy we forbear to mention names, though it is most probable that, in the course of a day or two, they will be made sufficiently public through other channels. The lady is in the prime of life, possessed of considerable personal attractions and accomplishments; the gentleman (Oh, what a fall in poetry !) is the groom of the false " Helen's" husband, who is in the decline of life, and but lately from India, where he filled a high official situation in 'the Civil Department. Upon returning from a musical party on the above night, the following brief, but expressive information was conveyed to him, through the medium of a note that had been left upon the table : _ _ _ " Husband—When my father made me marry you, I told him, as well as yourself': that I never could love you. That assertion was, however, of no avail. When a woman is forced into a union she detests, she will never lack the wish, though she may the opportunity, of casting off the yoke." Information was conveyed to the husband that a chaise had been seen to pass through the London turnpike on Tuesday night, but of its inmates nothing could be learned. Mr. —, on hearing this, set out for London, accompanied by the bro ther of his " lost rib." THEATRES. • OPERA BUFFA-LYCEUM. Her Majesty again graced this theatre with her presence. She came in the most unostentatious manner, being merely attended by the Duchess of Sutherland, Miss Pitt, the Mar quis of Conyngham, and another gentleman. Her Majesty's •eutonee was entirely unperceived by thopilience, and it wag onlS- after she had deigned to cast some few glances from the curtain, behind which she had ensconsed herself, that the Tr , re became aware of the presence of the illustrious visitor. rile audience, nevertheless, had the delicacy to recognise the incognito which her Majesty had chosen to assume, and net to evince, by any unseemly interruption, their sense of the honour conferred.upon them. Her Majesty, who was dressed very simply, looked remarkably well. She was evidently pleased with the performance, for she smiled frequently, and on one or two occasions marked her approval by a gentle tap of ap plause. The first piece was Rossini's L'lnganno Felice, a one act opera, only realizing to a certain exteat the anticipations which this great composer's other works would justify. It strikes the car . as pleasing, but possesses few airs that will haunt the memory. Signor Catone, as the Duke, sang as he always does, sweetly, and received effective assistance from Signora Eckelin, as Isabella. The great attraction of the evening, however, was a new farce 11 Campanello, (the Bell) —music by Donizetti. The music of this piece is through out lively, characteristic, and pleasing. One little aria sung by Signor Lablache, " Or the in ciel alta e la notte,' is a per fect gem. The house was crowded, and amongst the. very numerous elite present, we recognised the Marquis of Clanri carde, the Earl of Ilchester, Lords Wharncliffe and Burg harsh, Mr. lyne Stephens, &c. • bRURY-LANE. Last night Mr. Balfe's opera of Joan of Arc was produced at this theatre. The dramatic portion of the opera is not feli citous. It might be denominated comic, ' from the undue pro minence which it giies to a few humourous characters, and its more important incidents are not connected in any force of, progressive interest. Its opening is peculiarly inappropriate, , presenting as it does a long scene of village jollity, at a place and time when the whole heart of France was in that &sok tion_which was the ostensible cause for a heavenly interposition. Dunois is quite an idle walking , gentleman in it, and, at . his, leisure, sings a couple of songs in the ()peg streets. Jew is" followed in all her fortunes by a village y , Theodore (M ~,,v Balfe), by whom she is eventually reseued.fr the Stake, and reserved for marriage according to the rules o !other Church. There is ageod deal of brilliancy in dressing this opera and in its seettis.li7;l4coraposer suffers, as he always will, from the vararnitiell.eirttrsTa_his libretto. llis effitsions do tSt seem -.10,1)e COrne . ctel t orlssigned with Zny'viefto a general effect. Mr:•11 - alfOitslaoiVe#Iimself forth lavishly on this occasion. T-4-:ll*lt'abc,u'adfilfirsolo, duet, and every kind of cisicerted pipe:ln'all there is great spirit, with marked - oriOin4lty. In some he is particukrly happy both in meloily and :let:Am bination. The whole of the choral music of tht scene in St. Catherine's Church is solemn and striking. The comic duet between Badet (Mr. Seguin) and Madelon (Miss Poole), and that between Badet and Renaud (Giubilei), are both amongst Mr. Balfe's happiest efforts. The ballad " The peace of the valley," sung by Mr. Balfe himself, is very beautiful, and very similar to..!, c rns e.l4bt of other days." Some of the minor concerted pieces of the opera are licitly harmonized. On the whole Mr. Balfe's portion of this opera is calculated to make it a favourite for some time, __and to reflect new honour upon himself. AGRICULTURAL REPORT FOR NOVEMBER. November, the month of fog and gloom—approaches to its close, and has embraced a series of meteorological phe- nomena which claims our first attention. The progressive decline of the year, the gradual diminution of solar light . and influence in the northern hemisphere, involve, as an in evitable consequence, much of the " dark and dreary ; " yet individually considered, the eleventh month has passed cheerily on. There has been an unusually great propor tion of brilliant sunshine, an ample supply of rain, and a recurrence of periodical frosts, all of which have been ex ceedingly propitious to agriculture. The first frosts oc curred at the close of October, and after three days, in which rime appeared on the grass, the present month was ushered in with wind and storm from the north- west. Frost again recurred, with change of wind to the northward, on the fourth day ; it continued, ac• companied with haze and fog, till tho ninth, when the wind veered, and brought rain from the south. Similar alternations have subsequently occurred at two intervals ; and we may remark, as a peculiar feature of the season, that every approach of rain has been indicated either by a true night aurora borealis, or by a glowing suf fusion of red light, at, and immediately after, sun-set. The gorgeous auroras, wherein either orange or intense crimson has been the prevailing tint, have conferred a splendour upon the month which, in our recollection, has had no pre cedent. The thermometric temperature, as a whole, may be viewed as rather below the calculated average. We have not seen the mercury above 52 degrees at mid-day, and it receded on the nights of the Bth, 16th, and 17th, to 24, 23, and 25 degrees. We have found it quoted as low as 22 degrees on the 16th. The barometer has indicated a fair mean pressure ; it was at its minimum on the first day (28 in. 50 cents.) and attained its maximum between the 4th and Bth days, when the mercury stood above 30 inches. We are enabled to report most favourably of the condi tion of the land, and its products ; the weather has effectu ally removed the fears that bad been entertained.• We stated in our last the depressing anticipations of those who believed that the dry season of October would prove de structive of the seed-wheat and have now to record their consequences. Much wheat had been sown before the alarm was created ; the seeds vegetated rapidly, and the plant became strong : it still continues so, and these fields are covered with verdure. But numbers of farmers hesitated, and did not commit the seed to the ground till a comparatively late period ; hence a great retardation and inequality have been produced. Even now the young plants are in many parts scarcely visible, and should we be speedily visited with keen frost of any considerable du ration, there may be scarcely any " plant" at the close of the year. " Winter proud" wheat is certainly an evil ; but want of strength must be one of more serious character. We are not alarmists, however, and though we cannot fail to remark the wonderful discrepancies which _ _ must be apparent to the most superficial observer, we know the vigour of the plant, and that, though feeble and humble in appearance, it is sound in health, and promises to be full and regular in its growth. Nothing, however, can be decisively pronounced till the character of the winter be established ; at present it promises to be mild upon the whole, with recurring alternations of temporary frosts. The plough works admirably, because the condition of the ground is mellow ; the fellows will be compa ratively clean, and, if the seasons prove favourable, be in the best state for spring operations. The clover covers the surface ; the trifoliunt is looking well, but we retain the opinion more than once expressed, that it will not be in general repute for any long period. Grass lands are promising, and there appears no lack of winter fodder. Stock of every description is healthy, and pr;.ces certainly remunerate the grazing farmer amply. Out cli mate is propitious to grazing, and we believe that, herein few countries could compete with it. British prosperity , under Providence, appears assuredly in the- ascendant. May steady, uninterrupted peace arid tranqu;: i iity confirm it ! The potato crops are, by consentive . ; L re ports, pro nounced abundant ; everywhere there the. r , i s a profusion of fruit, and individuals in neighbourhr is at hand may easily prepare their' ow n cider at a very trifling outlay.—Nov. 28. COURT OF COMMON COT JNClL.—Yesterday a court was held for the despatch of. business. It was the first in the present mayoralty, and the. U ord Mayor made a suitable address to the members, with. wl• ,om he had been for many years in constant intercourse. and. habits of friendship. The address 'was received with strong expressions of approbation. Last week, a beautiful ancient marble statuc of Pomona, byon e i n o f e t x h c e e 1 4 e c -. t a t v p a r t e o s r e: o r a n t i t was found near Winches ter, Southampton railroad.
