What Count Bismark wills even the Government of the Emperor Napoleon will not venture to gainsay. It is a pity that a man conscious of so much strength should show so little disposition to he just or generous. We are among those who have most fearlessly applauded the main work of Bismark, because we believed it was good for the Germans to be cast together.in one people, and that, so far as Germans can be said at any time to know their own mind, such was their desire. We feel no inclination to change our views on the subject, although it would now seem that the Germans, like very children, fancied they could " eat their cake and keep it," make of their fatherland one State and 3Q States at the same time. But it is cruel to think that a nation so incapable of knowing its own mind, or of acting with one will, in anything concerning its own interests, should have shown so much unani mity only when its vanity could be gratified at the expense of an inoffensive neighbour. In the annexa tion of Hanover, in the humiliation of Saxpny, in the expulsion of Austria, in the dissolution of the Bund, Bismark may have partisans as well as oppo nents in Germany. But on the subject of Denmark he has been, is, and will be sure of the suffrage of all his countrymen from beginning to end. In the spoliation of the Dane Germany had only one mind and one heart. This inexorable hardness and bit terness against the weak augurs ill for the future career of a nation which is even now rising to un bounded and irresponsible power. Yet, we have no doubt, in any design Count Bismark may harbour about evading the stipulation of the sth Article of the. Treaty of Prague, and defrauding Denmark of what ought now to be indisputably her own, he would be sure to be out-Bisnzarked by every man throughout Germany, not excepting the members of the most violent Opposition in the Prussian Chamber, the most discontented municipalists of Hanover, Dresden, or Frankfort, or even the most rabid democrats of Bavaria, Wurtemberg, and Baden. ABRIEL, Mayor.—The first Court of Mayor Or and Aldermen, holden at the Mansion House of the Lord Mayot of the City of London, on Tuesday, the 13th day of November, 1860, and in the 30th year of the reign of Vic toria of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, Queen, &c., Resolved unanimously— That the sincere and heartfelt thanks of this Court be pre sented to the Right Hon. Benjamin Samuel Phillips, late Lord Mayor, for the highly efficient and dignified manner in which he has so satisfactorily discharged the many and im portant duties of the high office of Chief Magistrate of this City. _ That this Court is desirous of expressing at the same time its deep sense of the energy displayed by him in taking mea sures for the relief of the sufferings of his fellow-creatures in all parts of the world, and more especially under the recent outbreak of cholera in this metropolis, and for the prompt and efLient measures which were taken under his guidance, and which not only tended to the alleviation of the sufferings of the dying, but to secure provision for , the widows and orphans of those who had p er ished under the calamitous visitation. _ _ At the same time this Court cannot but acknowledge in the warmest terms the great satisfaction they feel, in common with their lellow-citizens, at the distinguished compliment paid to the t ity of London, and to the Lord Mayor as its Chief Magistrate ; by the King and Queen of the Belgians, their Royal Highnesses the Prince of Wales and the Duke of Kdinbargh. and other eminent persons, and the admirable manner in which the late Lord Mayor exercised his impor tant functions on those several occasions.

SPIRIT OF iIIE PUBLIC JOURNALS. ----~- Tnws.— the Crown Speech delivered by Christian IX., King of Denmark, at the opening of the Rigs raad on Monday last, cannot fail to work a painful impression on those whose notions of right and wrong are rather guided by the intrinsic merits of a cause than by the magnitude of the interests at stake in it. Months have elapsed since the signature and ratifi cation of the Treaty of Prague, yet no steps whatever have been taken towards the execution of the article concerning the' future destinies of the Danish dis tricts of North Schleswig. By the terms of that article, as we all remember, Prussia engaged to re store those districts to Denmark, in the event of the majority of their inhabitants declaring in favour of such a re-annexation. The mere fact that nothing whatever has been d one t owar ds eliciting the vote of those people is, i n our opinion, tantamount to a flagrant and delib era t e b reac h o f the treaty itself, and would doubtless b e resente d as such by Austria, if that Power had either the inclination or the ability to renew the struggle in which she was so recently worsted, or if, in inserting that clause, and proposing an act of tardy restitution which cost hernothing, and bound her to nothing, she had been actuated by any sense of justice, and not merely by a wish to gain a cheap popularity. Nothing could be more distressing than to hear the King of Denmark give utterance from the Throne to a confidence which he must be so far from feeling in his heart ; to hear him putting his faith in the " text of the Treaty," in the principle of nationality which is now gaining ground through out Europe, in the recognition of the Danish claims by friendly Powers, and especially by the Govern ment of the Emperor Napoleon, to whom Denmark owes a debt of deep gratitude, and, finally, in the goodwill of Prussi a , a " proo f of whose good friend ship" King Christian sees in " the proposed settle ment." It would be cruelty to grudge a good King the meagre consolation of hope. Denmark had signed away her two Duchies, from the Elbe to the Kongen's Aa, at the close of the unfair struggle that was forced upon her in 1864 ; and for herself she would never have the power, or, strictly speak ing, the right to recover them. But the Treaty of Prague has created a new title in her favour, and, though any attempt to enforce it by her own strength would be too decidedly out of the question, it is hardly consistent with her dignity to allude to it in any other tone than that of peremptory de mand and protest. This, however, would imply the existence in Europe of a common sense of jus tice, of a police, and of some regard for the sacred ness of engagements. Prussia knows all the while that she never intends to part with a single square inch of Schleswig territory, and she is equally sure that no one has either the power or the will to make her do so. Her unconscionable delay in the appeal to the popular suffrage of the North-Schleswigers evidently reveals on her part a settled intention to evade the spirit, if not the letter, of the Treaty, and to postpone the plebiscite till she has laid her plans to secure the vote in her favour. Letters from the Duchies tell us of the efforts made by. the German settlers of Flensburg, Tondern, Hadersleben, and other localities to get up a German or Prussian party , in the midst of the native Danish population. The in divisibility of Schleswig-Holstein on which so much stress was laid by both parties at every stage of that sorrowful contest is now brought forward as a plea against that retrocession of those northern districts to Denmark to which Prussia is solemnly pledged. " e Wien, hear,"Turn s ays one of those lett ers, " o f Gesang re verein, Burgerverein, and other associa tionsv setting themselves against the parting of Schles wig; but it is well to know that the members of one of those German Unions are the same men who also belong to all the others." Notwithstanding all this factious agitation, however, there is little doubt that if the matter were ever allowed to come to a free vote the great mass of the people down to the Daunewerke, especially in the rural districts, would vindicate its Danish nationality. Free voting, however, is not to be thought of with the Prussians in possession; nor is it to be expected that the civil and military authorities of King William will be withdrawn for the occasion. The King of Denmark talks of a good chance that Denmark may obtain the natural frontiers necessary for her defence; but surely, even if there could be giving up Tondern and a ll n a y de p rs o l s e s b ib e i n li , t rt i o s f ve P r r y u c s e s r ia tain she would proceed to any extremities rather than dispossess herself of that line of the Slei, and of those positions of Duppel and Alsen which were the main objects of her invasion. Neither can we share the King's sanguine expecta tions arising from the benevolent attitude of friendly Powers. The case of Denmark is past any remedy that might be afforded either by peaceful remon strance or by armed threat, or even by the outcry of public opinion.

A Court of Aldermen was holden yesterday in the Long Parlour at the Mansion-house, at which the Lord Mayor (Alderman Gabriel) presided for the first time. His LORDSHIP briefly addressed his brethren of the bench and expressed the satisfactiOn he felt at the honour he had received on being elected to fill the office of chief magistrate of the city of London for the ensuing year. He said that he had received many instances of kindness and courtesy from his brother aldermen in the performance of his ordinary duties, and now that ho was appointed to a.more important position he felt assured that they would continue to give him the same kind assistance and support that had been accorded to his predecessors. (Hear, hear.) THE LATE LORD MAYOR. Alderman COPELAND then rose, and, as senior member of the Court, proposed the usual resolution of thanks to the late Lord Mayor for the very able and dignified manner in which he had performed the duties of that office duringthe past year. He observed that it was not necessary to expa tiate upon the merits of the late chief magistrate, because he felt assured that every member of the Court would agree with him, that in dignity of conduct and upholding the rights and privileges of the city of London the late chief magistrate had not been surpassed by any of his predeces sors in office. The hon. member then read the resolution. Alderman WILSON said he had great pleasure in seconding the resolution, and he at the same time referred to an in stance in which the late Lord Mayor had specially inter fered to prevent the privileges of the Corporation being interfered with. Alderman SIDNEY, in supporting the resolution, alluded to the honour that bad been conferred upon the Corporation by the visit of their Majesties the King and Queen of the Belgians to the Mansion-house ; and in reference to the Or der of Leopold that had been presented to the late Lord Mayor, he expressed his opinion that the conduct of the Government, in refusing Alderman Phillips permission to wear that order, was " out of place." Alderman ROSE said that the hon. alderman was not jus tified in using the expression he had done with respect to the Government. Decorations of the description referred to were not allowed to be worn in this country except for distinguished military or naval services, and the Govern ment, in refusing the permission to wear the decoration in question, were merely acting according to law. (Hear, hear.) The resolution was then put and carried unanimously. Another motion, by Alderman COPELAND, that the re solution be fairly transcribed and signed by the Town Clerk and presented to the late Lord Mayor, was also agreed to; but a second resolution, that it should be also written on vellum and emblazoned and signed by the Town Clerk, and presented to Alderman Phillips, was not seconded, and therefore dropped. THE SUMMONING OF JURORS IN THE CITY OF LONDON. Ald-erman STONE, the chairman of thd General Purposes Committee, brought up a report from that committee re commending various alterations in reference to the mode of summoning jurors in the city of London to serve upon special and other juries, the present system having caused great dissatisfaction. The principal alterations appeared to be that the deputy and alderman of each ward should take measures to obtain a correct list of persons liable to serve on special and other juries, and that the ward beadle should be instructed to go to every house and office in each ward and obtain the names of all persons who were liable to serve as jurors. The alderman said that he be lieved it bad only been customary to have the name of one member of a firm upon the jury list, which was undoubt edly illegal, and the effect of the proposed alteration must be that the lists would be much more complete, and the persons liable to servo on special and common juries would be properly distinguished. The report was agreed to. THE LORD MAYOR'S SHOW ON THE 9TH OF NOVEMBER. Alderman SIDNEY said that, seeing the hon. alderman, Sir R. Carden, present, he should like to ask him whether the statements he was represented to have made on a recent occasion as to the advisability of abolishing the, Lord Mayor's show were correctly expressed. (Cries of "Order, order," and "Go on.") He brought the matter forward as a question of privilege. (Hear, hear.) All he would say was, that if the representative of the Lord Mayor, and sitting on the bench, did really make use of such ob servations, the sooner the office was abolished the better. (Cries of " Oh, oh.") Alderman Sir R. CARDEN, in reply, said that he did make use of the observations that were imputed to him, and he felt he was justified in doing so. Alderman ROSE expressed his opinion that a gentleman who was at the time representing the Lord Mayor was hardly justified in making use of such observations. Alderman WasoN said that with reference to this sub ject he felt it his duty to bring before the Court the sub ject of the want of proper arrangements for the accommo dation of the distinguished guests who were invited to the banquet on Lord Mayor's-day, and should propose that the matter be referred to the General Purposes Committee, to ascertain where the fault really lay, with a view to remedy such inconveniences for the future. (Hear, hear.) Not only were the arrangements for placing the guests at table most defective, but those for obtaining the carriages at the con clusion of the banquet were productive of very great in convenience. The Lord Chancellor had to wait a long time in the crowd because the police would not allow his car riage to come up, and the judges were also obliged to sub mit to the same inconvenience. The Lord Chancellor hap pened to be a remarkably good-tempered man, or else he must have been very much annoyed at the treatment to which he was subjected. (A laugh.) He was aware that the Lord Mayor's banquet was almost a European gather ing, and that the number of distinguished persons who at tended it was very great, but still it was due to the Corpo ration to use every means in their power to prevent their guests from suffering any unnecessary inconvenienee. (Hear, hear.) Alderman SIDNEY said he quite concurred in what had been stated by his friend Alderman Wilson as to the want of proper arrangements for the accommodation of the visi tors to the Guildhall on the 9th of November. The dais was crowded long before the arrival of the Lord Mayor, and a great many of the distinguished visitors were not placed in the position they ought to have occupied. Lord Derby, the Prime Minister, did not occupy the proper posi tion he should have done, and many of the Foreign Minis ters were quite differently placed to what they should have been, according to the programme. (Hear, hear.) The Lord. Chancellor also was not in his proper place. Alderman Wrisos—He had to move three times before he could get any seat at all. (A laugh.) Alderman SIDNEY went on to say that he did not know who was to blame for the confusion that existed, but he quite agreed with the honourable alderman who had brought the matter forward, that something ought to be done to prevent such a state things from arising on any future oc casion. (Hear, hear.) Alderman RosE said that there was certainly more con fusion and inconvenience at the last banquet than he had ever seen before on such an occasion. He had always un derstood that it was the duty of thenenaembrancer to take care that the guests were placed according to their rank, and in due precedence. He saw that gentleman in the Guildhall, and he had no doubt that he had a place and a good dinner, but certainly a great many of the most dis tinguished guests were very much inconvenienced, and the arrangements for the accommodation of the large number of distinguished persons who attended the banquet we re very defective. (Hear.) Alderman WILSON said be had attended the banquets on PIUCF 4d. STAMPED sd. the 9th of November for 30 years, and he never before saw so much confusion as prevailed at the last. Tho RSMEMBRANCER (Mr. Corrie) rose, and with some warmth claimed the right to answer the statement that had been made by some of the honourable members. With regard to the dais being crowded before the arrival of the Lord Mayor and the other distinguished guests, all he could say was that the great officers of the corporation possessed the privilege of introducing 340 of their friends, and they insisted upon occupying the position in question. Alderman WILSON inquired of the Remembraneer upon what grounds ho stated that the high officers of the corpo ration claimed the right of introducing so many as 310 of their friends to the banquet. Tho REMEMBRANCER, said that the Lord Mayor claimed the right of introducing 57 of his friends, and the Sheriffs 27 each, and although he was not at that moment in posses sion of the precise data upon which ho founded his state ment, he believed that it was substantially correct, and that the great officers of the. corporation claimed the right he had mentioned. He might state also that if that large number of persons had been kept back from the dais, it would, in his opinion, have created still greater confusion. As to the assertion thatmany distinguished persons, and among them Gen. Peel, had not been placed in a proper poition accord ing to their rank, all he could say was, that originally Gen. Peel was placed in the position ho ought to have occupied according to his rank, but he was pushed lower down by a number of persons of distinguished rank who had been in vited to the banquet, and who assembled in larger numbers than usual. With regard to the statement of one hon. alder man, that he had got a dinner, his only answer was that he had got no dinner at all. (A laugh.) Tho matter was then referred to the Committee of Privi leges, and the Court shortly afterwards adjourned. In the course of the sitting the Lord Mayor announced that ho had made an appointment with his Royal Highness tha Duke of Edinburgh to be present at the opening of the bazaar in the Guildhall, and he asked permission to appoint Alderman Copeland as his locum tenens during the remain der of the sitting, and this was acceded to. The Lord Mayor would have gone in the usual state to the Guildhall but it appeared that it was absolutely necessary that the mace should remain during the sitting of the Court, and the Lord Mayor was therefore obliged to dispense with the attendance of that important civic official, the mace-bearer (Mr. Beddowe) and his insignia of office. Total Wreck of the Ship Cyclone. TWENTY LIVES LOST-PRAISEWORTHY CONDUCT OF PRINCE SATZUMA. Yesterday a despatch was received at the Foreign-office from her Majesty's Consulate at Nagasaki, transmitting the official deposition taken on oath of the three survivors of the British ship Cyclone, belonging to Aberdeen, which has been totally lost on the south-west coast of the island of Tanega Tima, and 20 of her crew drowned. "We left Sydney on the 22d of last June, bound to Shanghae, and experienced-strong fair winds until about lat. 6 S. ; afterwards winds light and variable. On the 12th of July, in lat. 12 N., lost our fore and main topmasts. On Thursday, August 8, it was blowing a gale from S. to S.E. with a very low glass and heavy sea, steering W. I- N. At 4 p.m. gale increasing; hauled to the wind on the port tack, under close-reefed fore and maintopsails, and foretop mast-staysail. During the night wind still increasing, very dark, with vivid lightning and heavy rains ; glass 29.30 ; corpusants flying about on the yard arm. At about 1.45 a.m. on Friday, 9th, was roused out of bed with the cry of Land to leeward.' Jumped on deck, the captain going up at the same time. The ship having scarcely any headway on her, tried to wear her, but whilst hauling in the weather main braces she touched on a reef, but went over it, and the next sea was broadside on against the rock, the light ning showing it to be about 50 feet high, completely smooth, and up and down ; the second sea the masts went, and the third she turned over on her beam ends, deck to wards the rock, and went down, she being almost entirely broken up. Not more than five minutes elapsed from the time she first touched till she was completely broken up. I was in the water about three-quarters of an hour on some of the spars, when I managed to reach another island at daylight ; found that I was on one of a group of five sluall islands close to the main land, and the rock on which we had struck was about half a mile to seaward. I managed with the help of a spar to reach the main land. As soon as I landed the Japanese went off in their boats, and found Thomas Guymar, A. 8., and Geo. Brown, the cook, on another island. All of us were badly cut and bruised. All that we saved from the wreck was two shirts and a pair of trousers, which the natives picked up on the beach and brought to us. On Saturday we found the body of JOseph Macnamara ou the beach, and we buried him in the afternoon, the natives digging the grave for us. On Sunday afternoon, the sea having gone down considerably, the Japanese officers took me off to the rock the ship struck on, and likewisl to the other islands. There were no pieces of wreck on or about the rock ; but. the weather bays of all the other islands were full, even the lower masts and beams being splintered up into small pieces, and some of the wreck jammed into the crevices of the rock 40 or 50 feet high. During tho three days we stopped in the village no other bodies were washed on shore. On the 12th we went in a junk to another village along the coast, and there took ponies across the island to a town on the other side. We stopped there, lying in a temple till Monday, August 26th. We then started in two junks to Prince Satzuma's head town, Kagosima. It took us three days to get there. Left Nagosima for Nagasaki, in a Japanese steamer, belonging to the Prince of Satzuma, on Tuesday, Sept. 10th, and arrived in Nagasaki on the 12th. The Prince of Satzuma was most kind to us, supplying us with clothes and whatever else we required, and forwarded us at his own expense to the con sul at Nagasaki. We were never without guards, and wherever we went the people followed us in hundreds and treated us kindly. We cannot refrain from testifying our Sincere thanks to Prince Satuzuma and his people, for the affable and kind manner in which they treated us during the time we wore in their country, which we shall ever boar in remembrance.

The Fatal Wreck on the Irish Coast. The sad catastrophe of which the coast of Wex ford was the scene on Saturday night turns out to have been of a much more fatal character than the first necessarily hasty and imperfect accounts repre sented. Instead of 25 lives being lost, it noloanps pears that certainly 35 and probably 40 persons have been engulphed in the waves.

The helmsman succeeded in reaching the shore, but in a most pitiable condition from cuts and bruises against the rocks—but the others in that part of the vessel were all lost. Fortunately, the saloons in which the passengers were located were on deck, and the greater number of the passengers were forward and amidships, so that, although the aftel part of the ves sel gave way, those in the remaining and still floating portion of the vessel escaped the death which would inevi tably have been their fate had they been below. There were no rockets on board, but the captain burned a case of blue lights, in the hope of attracting attention on shore ; bathe effort was fruitless. He, however, by this means, discovered that he was on the mainland, and not a shoal of rocks. This discovery induced him to attempt the saving of the lives on board. The boats were first tried, but they were dashed to pieces in a short time. A rope was then lashed to the mainmast, and, as the tide was ebbing fast, i and leaving the vessel on high although not on dry land, - tfr N.EIVS PA PER A; --7. ft-i f __*--- ... - - i r-Itcr•-•=7.44. i.

The chief engineer, two stokers, the cook, two carpenters, steward esses, and three or four soldiers who were returning on furlough, belonging to the Artilleryand the 43d Regiment, were also drowned. All the sailors were saved, as well as the captain and chief and second officers. Dr. Heard, his father, wife, and child, and passengers arrived at White's Hotel here. The place where the vessel struck ii called the Chour, near Oansore Point, on the south Wexford coast. The inhabitants, as soon as they heard of the occurrence, -afforded the sufferers every assistance. Major Keane, who resides in that neighbourhood, has been mentioned by some of the survivors as having distinguished himself by his humanity on that occasion. The vessel is a complete wreck, being broken in three parts. All the deck luggage and goods aro strewed on the beach, but much of the cargo has remained in the broken parts of the vessel, and is likely to be recovered." Up to ten o'clock last night 35 bodies had been cast ashore, and four or five others are yet missing. Those cast ashore comprise both male and female, young and old—some whose fingers are adorned with gold, and others whose hands bear the marks of hard labour. Not a few also of the ill-fated pas sengers belong to the army. A Speech by Lord Dundreary. On Saturday night Mr. Sothern appeared for the second time at the Theatre Royal, Glasgow, in the character.. of Claude Melnotte, in the " Lady of Lyons." In the course of the evening he stated that he had long wished to see how he would succeed in that role. Mr. Sothern excused himself for not com ing up to his conception of the part, because, labour ing under a severe hoarseness, he was unwilling to tax his voice too severely. During the piece there were frequent bursts of applause, and when the cur tain fell Mr. Sothern and Miss Leclercq (who per formed the part of Pauline) were called forward. The lady having retired, Mr. Sothern said : Ladies and Gentlemen,-(cries of "Order" in gallery)- thank you, whoever it was who called order up there, for if I haven't silence I shan't be able to make myself heard, I'm so hoarse. Ladies and gentlemen-that is the second time I've said ladies and gentlemen, though, by the way, upon my soul I dont see why I should be saying it at all (A Dundreary laugh from speaker,, and great laughter.) You may think it a remarkably cool thing of me coming forward this way, but I feel that after the reception I have met-and I'm not a fellow in the habit of making addresses of this kind, so when I do volunteer a speech I may be be lieved as meaning what I say-for the very cordial recep tion I have met at the hands of the Glasgow public, I feel it might seem ungrateful in me if I did not make some public acknowledgment of it. (Great applause.) It is many years since I had a great ambition to try my hand at Claude Melnotte, and 16 years ago I filled the part once as an amateur. I suppose I must have made a ' pretty mess of it - (laughter) -for I hadn't learned to act then. Of course I don't mean to say that I can act now, but judging from what you have seen to-night you may imagine what sort of a thing I made of it then. (Another Dundreary laugh from speaker, and general laughter.) My friend Buckstone has often tried to get me to come out in the part in London, but I never was able to muster up the requisite courage. However, when I was coming down here the thought struck me that now was the chance, and I said to myself, Old fellow, I'm blessed if I don't go in for Claude Melnotte in Glasgow.' (Laughter.) So I tele graphed for dresses on the chance of their fitting, and you know the rest. And this I did because I felt that if there were any merits in my performance a Glasgow audience would be certain to find them out ; or at all events, what ever imperfections there might be in it, I might rely upon the partiality of a Glasgow house to overlook them. I have had the disadvantage during the present engagement of suffering from a severe hoarseness. It must have been palpable to every one in the theatre. I caught a bad cold three or four weeks ago, and have not recovered from it since. And talking every evening, I have not had time to get my voice mellowed. If I have been too feeble in my performance in the ' Lady of Lyons,' I dare say you will excuse me, feeling as I do if I come up to my own concep tion, I should have lost my voice at the end of the fourth act ; and if I hatcome forward at the end of that act, and explained the fifth to you, that I fancy would have been rather objectionable. (Applause.) 'An eminent actor once asked me whether I didn't find Scotch audiences cold ? ' I said, ' I don't ; but what do you mean by cold.' 'Why, they don't applaud, you know." You mean they're - silent.' Well, I'll tell you what I said to him, and what I've repeated publicly to audiences in all parts of England and Ireland-and mind you it's not a complimentary thing to tell a house a fact of this sort when it relates to a diffe rent set of pooplo altogetlwr. I said, 'I like silence. I can act to a silent audience-but of all things I hate an audi ence which is continually applauding, and applauding in the wrong place. It puts me out. I can't act to it. But give inn a house that understands what it hears, and when in the middle of a scene some fellow begins to do this (here Mr. Sothern clapped his hands), cries hush," "'order"- that's the sort of house I like.' (Cheers.) Silence I con sider the highest compliment that can be paid to an actor. Of course, at the right times-when the curtain falls or between the acts-then any amount of applause you like. It puts a fellow, in spirits to go through with his part. (Great and prolonged cheering, on the subsi dence of which Mr. Sothern, making as if to retire, said)- There, you see, th a t app l ause has finished the speech ' for me, and I'm glad of it, for 'pon my honour I don't know what I was going to say. (Mr. Sothern, returning, con tinued)-1 am sorry to leave Glasgow ;at the same time, Ido not know why ; because I am afraid, if I had got an engagement for four or five weeks, I would not have lived to the fifth week. (Laughter.‘ The excessive hospitality 1 met with is such that it almost seems as if I never go to bed at all. I'm a quiet, domesticated man when I'm at home - (laughter) -and like to keep good hours; but hero there's always some friend who says, Sothern, old fellow, let's have another cigar. Don't go to bed yet. Have a cigar and another nip-(l aug ht er )-it' s on l y f our i n th e morn ing.' (Great laughter.) And so you go on nip, nipping, until your mind gets so mixed about the hours that you think it better not to go to bed at all. Really the way you manage things in Glasgow quite surprises me. You come here and see your bed, and say, All right ; there it is. It is a very nice thing, and some day or other, I suppose, I shall sleep in it.' (Laughter.) But really your hospitality is so great that I very seldom do so in Glasgow. I don't know whether I shall get to bed to-night or not. (Groat laughter.) Ladies and gentlemen? I beg again to thank you for your kindness." (A pplause.)a The performances concluded with Mr. Byron , s ex i e t h h a is galiza of " Dundreary Married and Done for, ,inwh lordship was as amusing as ever. At the tiie curtain, conclusion of this piece, too, Mr. Sothern was called b efore handso and in bowing his ack - nowl e d g ments kissed his HA British Daily the audience by way of a farewell. --No , V o Mail.
