The name of lierd Pal merston, whatever differences there might have been as to his views, had been associated for many and niAny a year with our prosperity, both in war and in peace, and therefore, though he was not going to dilate further upon that subject, his lordship said he ' felt it would be unbecoming in him, and also, be was quite sure, untrue to his own feelings and to theirs, if he did not remind them of the fact that they had lost the member of the Government to whom they probably owed those advan tages which they were about to avail themselves of in connection with the Science and Art-De partment. It was, of course, a very critical event for this country, but he was sure their earnest desire and prayer to God would be that He would direct her Majesty to choose who would, by a spirit of moderation and sympathy with the English temper and character, be enabled to guide the destinies of this country as of late years Lord Palmerston had been enabled to guide them. ~~ ~-~~ f O NDON must have a SUPPER an d MUSIC , ROOM for Gentl emen.

The Journal des Debats publishes the following remarks upon Lord Palmerston's public career : . Entering public life at a very early age, at the begin ning of the century, he has never since ceased to take an active part in the affairs of his country. We shall subse quently consider in a special article this long political career, sometimes so brilliant, often contradictory as to the principles and means employed, but immutable in its in spiration, which was to servo the interests of England at any price. It is this, without speaking of the remarkable talents of Lord Palmerston, which explains the popularity he enjoyed up to the last moment among his countrymen ; and certainly, if anything in the world ever was sincere, it is the unanimous regret expressed this morning by the English press, upon this point a very faithful echo of public opinion. We at least are not singular in considering the policy of Lord Palmerston as having nearly served its time, and as no longer responding to the ideas and wants of the present day; but in addition to his other merits the celebrated Minister possessed that of being pre-eminently English. Ho was English from his heart, by instinct and by intelligence. He• loved England passionately, and we ought to add, to the praise of our neighbours, that similar temperaments are not rare among them "SIR JASPER'S TENANT," THE NEW NOVEL, BY THE AUTHOR OF " AURORA FLOYD," &C.

Sir,—ln addition to my hurried report of last evening on the subject of the engagement between a patrol under the late Captain Close and the rebel natives at Konga-kumi kumi, I have the honour to bring to the notice of the colonel commanding the veryzealous and efficient services rendered by Assistant-Surgeon Grant, 43d Light Infantry, who was exposed, as I am informed, to a very heavy fire, under which ho directed Captain Close's body to be carried under cover. I am much indebted to Lieutenant Talbot also, who ac companied me with the reinforcement from camp, for the very gallant and zealous manner in which ho led while skirmishing.

" New Plymouth, New Zealand, July 29. " Sir, —I have the honour to transmit, for the information of the Lieut.-General commanding, the enclosed reports which I received at 10 o'clock last night. It is with very great regret that I have to record the death of Capt. Arthur 11. Close, of the 43rd Light Infantry, whose gallantry in the skirmish with the rebel natives, to whom he fell a victim, gave evidence of great promise, but the conduct of Ensign J. T. O'Brien and of the non-commissioned officers named by this officer, and of the men of the patrol, is highly commendable, and I have seldom read so clear and spirit report-48 that furnished by Ensign O'Brien of this fatal affair. I have directed Lieutenant-Colonel Colville, 43d Light Infantry, with 150 of the 70th Regiment, and 50 of the 43d Light Infantry, as a flying column, to proceed at once to Warea to endeavour to punish the rebels ; but I much fear they have now dis persed, as I am satisfied that the rebels who attacked Captain Close's party are those under Big Jack, mentioned in my confidential report No. 14, of the 23d instant—although I was apparently deceived as regards the number of followers with Big Jack— indeed Mr. Wilmington Carrington, employed in the absence of Mr. Parris in the Native Office, a few days after my last report was forwarded, told mo that Big Jack could muster about forty followers. All other parts of this district are perfectly quiet. —I have, &c. MANAGERS. Ilenry J. Barker, Esq., and T. Fraser Sandeman, Esq. SOLICITORS. Messrs. Ashurst, Morri4, and Co., and Messrs.

Lieut.-Colonel Colvile, as I have already reported, was sent to punish the rebels who attacked Capt. Close's party of the 43d Light Infantry on the 28th ult. To effect this object, Lieut.-Col. Colvile divided his column, sending 100 rank and file of the 70th Regiment, under Major Russell, 57th Regiment, by one native track, while he, with 150 of the 43d Light Infantry, took another.

Holloway's purifying, digestive, and gently laxative pills are admirably adapted for restoring soundness to invalids whose func tions are so feebly performed that life itself is most pre carious. Tho stomach has its many maladies removed by a judicious use of these pills ; the torpid liver is roused by them to active secretion, end every other organ subserving digestion is placed at its natural standard and better fitted for its duties. It is impossible to have a doctor at our elbow at all seasons a n d places, but thesepills will supply that loss, for they universally act beneficially on every ail ment. I have forwarded duplicate copies of this and the enclosed reports for the information of his Excel lency the Governor. Camp, Warea, July 28, 1865, 4 p.m. Sir,—l regret much having to report, for the information of the Colonel commanding, that a patrol, as detailed in tho margin,* under Captain Close, 43d Light Infantry, was fired on to-day by a party of about fifty of sixty Maorios, at a place named Hongu-Nami, about two miles from this camp, in a south-easterly direction. About one o'clock firing was heard in camp, and I imme diately ordered out all available men, and proceeded in com mand in the direction from which the firing was heard. As we approached the firing ceased, and in about half an hour we came up with Captain Close's party, when no trace of a Maori was to be seen. They had evidently escaped in lanel on seeing the reinforcement coming up. I regret much to state that Captain Close was mortally wounded, and is since dead, and one private was killed. I bog to enclose a report from Ensign O'Brien, who was Captain Close's subaltern on the occasion, and who seems to have acted with much coolness and judgment. A list of casualties is also attached. On arriving at the position 1 sent out Lieutenant Talbot with 50 mon to' skirmish through some bush from which the firing had come, but meeting with no sign of the enemy he returned, and as the enemy was nowhere to be seen I returned to camp. On examining th© bush from whence the firing had come, and on which it was returned, a considerable quantity of blood was seen, so that they must have carried off their wounded, As the rear-guard were within 150 yards from camp, and approachingthe picquot sentries, some shots were fired from a considerabie distaniZ I lost not a moment in communicating these circum stances. T. E. IroDas, Major Commanding, Warea The Garrison Adjutant, New Plymouth. Camp, Warea, July 28, 1865. Sir,—l have the honour to report, for your information, that I was subaltern of the party (1 captain, 1 subaltern, 2 sergeants, 1 bugler, and 51 rank and file), which went out under the command of Captain Close to patrol this morning, 28th July. The party marching along the track which runs inland to the north of the Warea, and after pursuing it for about four miles, struck a slight track to the right over open country, and crossed the Wares, coming upon the road which runs inland immediately south of the stream, about half a mile above the point where the track along which Major Russell's ambuscade was posted on the occasion of the recent expedition to Te Punt diverges from tho main road. On reaching the point where the track joins the road, Jim, the Maori, who was slightly in advance, came back, and pointed at some fresh tracks of natives who had come upon the road evidently by the path before mentioned. We advanced with caution, and, turning a corner of the road about 500 yards further on, saw a large body of Maories, between 50 and 80 in number, on a slight hill on the left of the road, about 300 yards in front of us. On perceiving our party advancing they commenced gesticulating and shouting "Pai Madre." On the right of the road, and running pa rallel to it, was a hedge, and beyond, at right angles to the hedge, bush, which extended from the road to the river. We advanced at the double, with directions to extend in skirmishing order under cover of the hedge, and were met on our way there across the open by a heavy volley from the natives, who crowned the crest of the hill without exposing themselves, and Captain Close and one private fell mortally wounded ; they kept up a brisk and sus tained fire on us, which was returned by our party. Jim, the Maori, was severely wounded immediately afterwards. I took over 20 men and lined the bush with them in skir mishing order, to guard against any movement from that quarter, and had hardly placed the men when a detached party of Maories, consisting of some twenty-five men, were seen creeping through the bush, evidently with the intention of outflanking us ; a heavy firs was kept up from the front to distract attention, they gave our men a volley, and one man was wounded, the men closed and the volley was returned. I then fixed bayonets and charged,but the natives effected their escape by the rear of the bush, and rejoined the main body, who now left the hill and crept under cover into a bush on the left of it, about 150 yards from us. The approach to this bush from our side was devoid of cover of any kind, and their position there was strength ened by a small swamp in front of them. Under the cir cumstances I did not feel justified, being the only officer left, and being obliged to leave nearly half my men in the bush they had already attempted to force, with a view to outflank us, in attempting to rush into it, but kept my men under cover, returning the fire the natives kept up continuously, until the reinforcement from camp arrived ; on the approach of the reinforcement the firing ceased, and the natives must have retreated by the rear of the bush, across a swamp, and so on to the track to Te Puru, as, on joining one of the reinforcing companies and skirmishing over the ground recently held by the na tive% we could find nothing but the tracks, which were soon lost in the swamp; we found no native bodies, but from the quantities of blood in different places, I presume they must have been removed when our attention was engaged by volleys from the front. I beg respectfully to bring to your notice the conduct of Sergeants Henley and Phelan, who carried out my orders with groat coolness and judgment, and also to commend most highly the conduct of Bugler Croghan, who stayed by Capt. Close's body under a heavy fire, until he received assistance to remove it under cover, and who behaved throughout most pluckily. I annex a return of killed and wounded. I have omitted to commend to your notice the conduct of " Jim," the Maori, which was most creditable throughout. I have, &C., J. T. O'BRIEN, Ensign, 43d Light Infantry. DETACHMENT 43D LIGHT INFANTRY.

Two or three of the mon having been wounded in this very spirited affair, some little difficulty appears to have been occasioned in bringing these wounded men away. The Maoris kept up a constant fire from all sides, so that we have to deplore the loss of Lieut. Bailey and three men killed, and Lieut. Tylden and five men wounded, all of whom were, however, brought back by the troops, and Lieutenant-Colonel Colvile's party, after much difficulty, owing to the extremely bad roads, having at last come up, killed five more Maoris, and drove the remainder in all directions. I believe this account to be substantially correct, but I will forward Lieutenant-Colonel Colvile's report, and also Major Russell's, by the first opportunity.—l have, &c., (Signed) IL J. WARR; Colonel, Commanding Troops, Taranaki. The Deputy Quartermaster-General, &e., Headquarters, Auckland. Dreadful Shipwreck A letter in one of the San Francisco papers gives the following account of the loss of the American ship Brother Jonathan :—" I was lying in my berth, feeling sick and sad, when I was suddenly startled by a fearful shock, fol lowed by a laboured rolling of the ship, a creaking of her timbers, and the distinct roar of rushing waters. It was but a moment's movement to spring from my berth and look out of the stateroom window, when I saw a piece of -ship timber floating in the water and a man running to the upper deck with a life preserver on, which con vinced me that we must be in great danger. I seized my child with one hand, and, grasping a life preserver with the other, I ran upon deck. On the way I met ladies rushing from their rooms in their night clothes, their hair hanging loosely about them, and their faces --Owing to the heavy sDa, many were sick in their berths when the disaster occurred. When I reached the deck I saw one of the boats already lowered and full of ladies, among whom was Mrs. Geneial Wright. Just then a woman sprang into the boat from the deck, and in the same instant the steamer careened and upset the boat, engulfing all in the merciless wave. One lady, clutching her infant with one hand, seized a rope and swung by the ship's side, now borne aloft, then disappear ing in the sea as wave rolled on wave towards the wreck; nor did she loosen her grasp till the ship and its living freight went down. After the boat was upset the cap tain throw a plank overboard, and one lady got on it, but a wave drove it against the ship's side and struck her. When I last saw her she was sinking and pressing her head with one hand. Most of that which is detailed above was seen while sitting in the boat in which I was rescued, and with whom I now have to deal. When I first reached the deck the boat above mentioned was already filled with ladies, and the lifeboat, which was afterwards saved, was occupied by the crew. Whether this was sel fish or not is not for me to decide ; but certain it is that they availed themselves of their knowledge of the supe riority of this little boat over larger ones. Seeing the boat full and ready to be lowered, I called to them " Save my child!" when one reached out and took it—l at the same time buckling on my life-preserver, because I had no expectation that they would take me, but ono of the men said, " Don't you want to come too 2" I joyfully accepted the opportunity to go with my child, and was soon dragged over the guards by two of the men. Just then a man with a red jacket on jumped into the boat, one foot lighing upon a Chinawoman's shoulders and the other upon a child, but neither uttered a cry. The cap. tain at the same time exclaimed, " Stay back ; you'll all be drowned." Here a poor woman, all dripping wet, ran up from below, and rushed for our boat, but the barkeeper, who was standing near, seized her round the waist and held her back, telling her that she would be drowned if she went in that boat. About this time one of the crew attempted to loosen our boat, and sud denly she hung one end down at a frightful angle, threatening to plunge us all in the waves below, but we clung to the boat, to the seats, to one another, I know not how, till the barkeeper loosened her at the other end and we were let down. Here dangers still threatened us—the rolling steamer to engulf us in her dark whirl pool, the angry waves to dash our frail boat to atoms, and a shoal of drowning people struggling to catch at any hope of rescue, to clutch at our boat and drag it down with them. The crew hastened to clear the steamer, and as I looked back I noticed one lady stand ing with her husband and two children on the deck, look ing wistfully after us. I had noticed her before as being:a very beautiful woman, and shall long remember the ex pression of that sweet face. Soon after we left the steamer a huge wave rushed over us, and nearly filled our boat, making us wish ourselves back on the sinking ship. But ' Onward !' was the cry ; Whither ?' was the question. There is land,' said one, and we steered in that direction and found it. some of the men rowed, while others bailed the water out, while the women crouched in the bottom of the boat, shivering and crying, almost perished with cold." Among the passengers drowned was a Mr. Nesbitt, the editor of one of the San Francisco papers. When all hope of being saved appeared at an end, Mr. Nesbitt wrote his will, which occupied two sides of a sheet of papers On the third page of the sheet he wrote an affectionate letter to his brother, giving him in the fewest possible words a schedule of all his property, directing him as' to his choice of attorney, and sending a parting message to his only sister. Business being thus attended to, and still a spare moment intervening before the fatal plunge, the fourth page of the sheet he devoted to a few hurried lines addressed to a family in which ho had resided for several years, and children—though in no manner related to him —familiarly called him grandpa. They had urged him not to sail on Friday, especially on the ' unlucky Brother Jonathan.' It was evidently in remembrance of their childlike apprehen sions on his account that he wrote as follows ci M dear Ma,—A thousand affectionate adieus. Y ou spoke o f my sailing on Friday—hangman's day —and the unlucky Jonathan. Well, hero I am, with death before me. My love to you all—to Caspar, to Dita, to Belle, Mollie, and little Myra—kiss her for MO. Never forget GRANDPA." This sheet of paper was thrown overboard, and has since been recovered. The witing is in pencil, and it is as clear, says a San Francisco paper, as if Mr. Nesbitt had intended it for "copy." ACCIDENT IN WOOLWICH ARSENAL.—A young lad, 14 years of age, named James Martin, in the employ of Mr. Daly, contractor to tho War Department, was on Thursday engaged in attendance on a party of men who wore repairing the gas fittings in the royal gun fac tories at Woolwich, when his hand was caught between a couple of cogwheels then in motion, and was literally crushed to pulp. The man in charge, who had observed the lad's inclination to meddle with the machinery, had frequently warned him of the danger of so doing, and hear ing a shriek he suddenly stopped the wheel, when, hasten ing to the unfortunate lad's assistance, he found that the hand was completed separated at the wrist. After receiving temporary relief in the local dispensary from Dr. Briscoe ho was conveyed to Guy's Hospital, where it was expected a furthor amputation would bo found necessary. COLOGNE, Oct. 20. The Cologne Gazette of to-day devotes two [ columns of its space to a biography of Lord Pal merston, in which it says:— If any one in future times wishes to sketch the portrait of an English statesman, he had better try to write Lord Palmerston's history. Free England has the good fortune to possess statesmen of reputation as a special class —men called by birth and education to devote themselves to public affairs Palmerston had not the moral elevation and the entrancing fire of the elder Pitt, not the cool cal culation of the younger, not the deep seriousness and the religious conscientiousness of a Peel. The English also do not assign him so high a place in oratory as the fiery Canning, nay, they even consider him as subordinate to the sophistical Gladstone, and other modern speakers. But this judgment is probably mainly based upon imperfect delivery and outward form, otherwise it would only prove the defective taste of the English. Many of his speeches, even those only delivered at an election or a dinner, are real masterpieces of manly eloquence and delicate taste, overflowing with spirit and humour. Without being a learned man or a pedant, he yet represented the advanced epirit of general education and enlightened humanity as hardly any other - English statesman, and yet he was a genuine Englishman in mind and manner of life. He was as indefatigable in the hunting field as at the desk, and exercised all the more influence over his nation, because he was its genuine son. As regards his personal character as a man, he had no enemy. He charmed even his oppo nents, and together with his amiable consort, the widowed Lady Cowper, stood, so to speak, at the head of English society. He was a real aristocrat, but upon a larger scale than the heroes of the Gaeta shield. He understood how to appreciate every species of power and superiority, not confining himself to that of birth, and in society he was amiability itself, as every one will testify who experienced the affability of his manners. Whenever he visited his Irish estates he was idolised by his tenants and employes. There could not be a more generous landlord. If Lord Palmerston was surpassed in some respects by others as a statesman he could perhaps, on the whole, measure himself with any, and he excelled them all in immensity of influence upon the fortunes of the world. Even if England still con tinue to increase in civilization and opulence, she may yet, as other larger States also rapidly augment, perhaps not long retain her present commanding position in the world and may be that in future ages the name of Palmerston will bo synonymous with her greatest glory. From one generation of Englishmen to another the saying will be handed down. We aro all proud of him." BRUSSELS, Oct. 19 (Evening.) The Independanec Beige of this evening comments as follows on the death of Lord Palmerston : His loss will be considered as a public calamity. Tho Promoticura., av4i. mind—his courago in meeting face to face, sometimes with jaunty raillery, more apparent than real, difficulties and dangers before which other statesmen recoiled—a valuable aptitude in presaging the fluctuations of public opinion, and in following them when the interests of England or those of his own ambition advised ; these were the quali ties which, during a most active political career—he was in Parliament at the age of 23—had made Lord Palmerston the most popular man in his country, and, finally, the keystone of the arch which maintained the balance of parties in that period of transformation through which England, and Europe with her, are at present passing. ROMSEY. The inhabitants of Romsey having expressed a very general desire that a public meeting should be held there for the purpose of giving public expres sion to the deep sorrow which the death of Lord Palmerston has caused throughout the town and neighbourhood, and the general sympathy which is felt for Lady Palmerston in her bereavement, the Deputy-Mayor, Mr. W. 0. Purchase, in the absence of Mr. C. Dyett, the Mayor, called a public meeting of the inhabitants, which was held in the Town-hall on Thursday evening. The Deputy Mayor presided, and there was a numerous attend ance of the inhabitants of the town of Romsey and of the parish of Romsey-extra as well as of other surrounding districts. The proceedings having been opened, the Rev. E. L. Berthon, vicar of Romsey, read the following letter which he had that day received from the Hon. W. Cowper, detailing the arrangements of his Lordship's funeral My dear Sir,—l know that you will share our sorrow, which is not ours only, but that of the nation. He departed in peace, without pain and with unclouded mind, though he was not able to communicate so easily what was passing in his mind. We prayed with him, and he appeared to join in it. He states in his will that it was his desire to be buried in the vault belonging to him in the cemetery at Romsey and I purpose that the funeral shall take place on Wednes day next at 8 o'clock. I hope you will be able to officiate. I am one of the executors, and it is therefore my duty to make the arrangements. The coffin will come down to Broadlands on Monday evening, preparatory to the funeral. Will you be so goodas to tell me whetheryoucousider that the chapel of the cemetery requires to be hung with black, or anything to be done with it.—Faithfully yours, W. Cowrzn. The following address was unanimously adopted - - Hon. and dear Sir,—l have been called upon this day to preside at a public meeting of the inhabitants of Romsey in this our deep a ffl iction, and I am deput e d t o b eg of you ' ho favour of expressing to my Lady Palmerston, at the earliest fitting opportunity, the sense of the profound and heart-felt sorrow which pervades all classesin this town and parish. We feel that as Romsey was the birthplace of that great man whose noble and active cstreer is now so sadly and suddenly closed, and in grateful remembrance of all the good and kind deeds he has for such a long time done among us, we may venture thus to express the feelings of every heart, and, anticipating the more formal condolence of the muni cipal body, convey to her ladyship, through your kind me diation, our deep sympathy with her in her sad bereave ment. W. 0. PURCIUSE, Ex-Mayor of Romsoy. OXFORD. Yesterday morning, at a general meeting of the members of the Town-council under the presidency of the Mayor, his worship made especial allusion to the event which has deprived the country of a truly great statesman, stating that in his lordship's death one at least was taken from amongst us who had the interest of the entire community at heart, and ask ing the council to concur with him in forwarding a vote of condolence to Lady Palmerston. The sug gestion was adopted amid uninterrupted silence, and the necessary instructions were given to the Town Clerk to convey a record of it to her ladyship at the earliest opportunity. SALISBURY. On Thursday a numerous and most influ ential meeting oft e h nng the inhabitants of Salisbury. and the neighbourhood was held in the Council Chamber of that city for the purpose of inaugurating a local School of Science and Ait, in connection with the Government Department of Science and Art. The Lord Bishop of Salisbury presided, and in opening the proceedings his lordship said he was sure he should not do justice either to his own feelings or to theirs if, in mentioning the Government of this country and the aid which they were prepared to give to that or any other good work, he did not speech, said—You have, sir, amid the private hos pitality to which you have invited us, thrown a mournful appearance of gloom by your allusion to an event which has just within the last few hours occurred. Well may you say, and truly have you been followed by my worthy friend, Mr. Austin, that this is a great national calamity,of which every man, let him belong to what party h e may, if h e b e an Englishman, who may have to allude to it, may speak as in itself a great and lasting national cala mity. It was my good fortune during the earlier years of my life to be acquainted with that illustri ous individual who has now passed away from among us, and at that time I belonged to the same political party as himself ; but when first the inha bitants of Ipswich afforded me the opportunity of appearing in the House of Commons, in that the greatestatst opinions, oassemblyahis llfble pneder so; so ofbnEuha but this England wasai s n Id continuedc it was my fortune to moments opposeda nsa u witht(l) meithen sinceritylalpoli tical during his long and illustrious career, whether from his partisans and friends in the Cabinet, in the House of Commons, or in the great country of which he was so distinguished an ornament, or whether from those who had the misfortune to be opposed to him conscientiously in the politics and vieWs which naturally divide the great and intelligent among men, I never heard but one opinion of those qualifications which made him what he was—(hear, hear)—as to his patriotism, as to his disinterested ness, as to the deep love_and attachment which he always felt and evinced in his private as well as in his public conduct, to the interest, honour, and glory of this country. (Loud cheers.) I, who have been opposed to him now for 30 years and more, from the hour when I was first returned the representaz tive of the borough of Ipswich, can say most con scientiously and sincerely, that although I have been opposed to him in politics I have had the honour of enjoying his personal friendship, and I have always looked up to him as a model and a pattern to all English gentlemen ; and I believe now that he has passed away from among us he has not left his equal behind him. (Cheers.) I will not detain you longer upon so melancholy a subject ; but I say of him now, for the last time perhaps on which it will be my duty or province to speak of him at all, that during the many, many years, approaching now to half a century, during which I was more or less acquainted with him in public or in private life, he never lost a friend, and never made an enemy. (Loud cheers.) HASTINGS. At a special meeting of the Town Council on Fri day evening the Mayor introduced the subject of the death of the Premier, and moved :—" That this council take the earliest opportunity of expressing their sense of the heavy loss the country has sus tained in the death of Viscount Palmerston, First Lord of the Treasury, and Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports, and order a record of the same to be placed on our minutes ; and that we, at the same time, tender to Lady Palmerston an expression of our sincere condolence on the sad event." The motion was seconded by Mr. Alderman Ginner, and carried unanimously. A copy of the resolution, with the corporate seal affixed, was ordered to be forwarded to Lady Palmerston. On Thursday night, at the jubilee meeting of the Hastings Friendly So ciety, Mr. Robertson, M.P., paid a feeling tribute to the virtues of the deceased Premier. DERBY. (The arrival of the news at Derby on Wednesday afternoon produced a most profound impression, several townsmen hoisted flags half-mast, and the bells of All Saints' and St. Alkinund's Churches tolled at a late hour in the evening. The Mayor (Mr. Roe) was entertaining the corporation, magis trates, members for the borough and county, &c., at a grand banquet at the King's Head Hotel when the telegram arrived announcing the Premier's death. The official toasts of the evening were dispensed with, and the Mayor called upon the company to drink to the revered memory of the deceased Pre mier in solemn silence. Mr. Bass, M.P., who was among the guests, said they could scarcely conceive how great was the loss the country had sustained by the death of Lord Palmerston. Foreign Mail Packet List. - s MAILS DUE.
