If I may quote one other short sentence from myself, let i t imply all that I have left unsaid, and yet most d eeply feel. Let it, putting a girdle round the earth, comprehend both sides of the Atlantic at once in this moment, and say, as Tiny Tim observes, " God bless us every one." (Loud and continued cheers.) The 'next toast, proposed by Sir C. W. Dilke, was " The, City," which was briefly responded to by the Lord Mayor. Mr. LAYAiiD did not know why the duty of pro- Ming the next toast had been assigned to him, es pecially in the presence of so many who could hare don e it much more justice than he could pretend to d °. The toast was " The Fine Arts," coupled with their distinguished representative in that assembly, Sir Francis Grant, the President of the Royal Academy. (Cheers.) Such a toast was pe culiarly- appropriate on that occasion. The fine arts and literature had the most intimate relations. °4 the one hand, literature furnished some of the noblest subjects to the painter ; and, on the other, the artist furnished the most animated and beautiful illustrations of literature. Mr. Dickens might well appeal to them to say whether he had not been faithful to his task, and whether he had not deserved Well of the artists of this country. There could be but one answer to such an appeal ; lie would say boldly that few literary men in this country had had 130 many true friends among its artists as Charles ckens. (Cheers.) He would not longer detain the re, but would propose the toast of " The Fine ! t i l ls," in conn ex i on w ith th e h ea l t h o f Si r F ran cis 'rant, the President of the Royal Academy, who so a hlY represented the tine arts in this country. (Cheers.) Sir FRANCIS GnA.Yr, who was most cordially received, said he could not expect to be listened to with patience after the eloquent speeches they l d beard ; h e on l y d es i re d grate f u ll y to acknow ledge the toast which Mr. Layard had been 11° good as to propose, and which the company had a° kindly received. He had come a long way on Purpose to he present on that occasion, and to bear ilia humble tribute of respect and admiration to the social worth and great literary genius of their dis tinguished g ues t—( c h eers ) — an d h e h o p e d h e m i g ht '3e permitted to assure him that there was no class of men who wou ld wa t c h w ith m o r e a ff ec ti ona t e Interest his career in America than the artists of his native country, and none who would give him a I nOre hearty welcome on his return. (Cheers.) Mr. °TWAT, M.P., proposed the toast of " Lite- Ae u re," and read a message entrusted to hi m by his ghbours to Mr. Dickens—" God speed you on Y o ur visit t o N ew A mer i ca, an d a h appy return to Old ., England, and to the home where you are so . dearly loved." (Ilear, hear.) I\l r. A.NTIIONT TROLLOPE, who was very warmly l i , eeei ved, acknowled ge d the toast and said—l always Ink that a very great honour is paid to any gen tleman who is ca ll e d u pon, on an occasion like this, t, °say a few words in reply to the toast of " Lite rature i" and I think it is especially an honour to be Called upon to do so at a banquet such as this, given to grace so di st i ngu i s h e d a guest.

(Loud cheers.) tiv he toast o f " Th e D rama " was nex t briefly Ai r by Sir E. L an d seer , i u the a bse n ce, throu g h `Vosition, of Si r E. T ennan t. BENJAMIN WEBSTER expressed himself the l 7 honoured in responding to such a toast in Si la ? t r s esence of one of whom it might be said, as of 4 4e Pere, that he hadexhausted an old and created W World. The drama was one of the highest ire4i _ st rao ,° , lB ever devised, calculated to convey in it „__"° ll with amusement. Those who raved against ta were either the children of folly or slaves of igno ace—.../. tow_ tcheers)—while the encouragers of that pro -441 were those who were the lovers of virtue vote the admirers of art. (Cheers.) The ancients ata bvery careful in the composition of their dramas, ez ah ," (3 hoped tho moderns would imitate their ttp oli - 1 ) , 1 e. The Athenians were wont to enlarge th e c ‘` lo advantages which the drama conferred upon i°Lintry, and on ono occasion it was set down 11 ; 1 00,0v . v He hoped that the statesmen of Eng 4 4 , wa uld be imbued with a simil ar f ee li ng w ith ii,,"r ali veett to the d rama i n thi s coun t ry, an d w i t h a rt i, worthy of that conviction. (A. laugh.) t talt, e LORD CHIEF JUSTICE, in proposing the next ha sa id —I rejoice to think that the to as t w hi c h a b e _ ho e I I Intrusted to my care is one which needs 4},_ flt; ed " ° my part to recommend it to your ready hog s `,, becau se I canno t b u t f ee l th a t a t thi s l a t e hav e t he evening, when so many graceful actors if ter eft the stage, the prattle of those who come t o all)llust be tedious. But when I tell you that I %it to propose the health of the noble lord o boa filled the chair this evening—(cbeers)—l wil l "re that for the few minutes I shall occupy you eve t e give me your attention. We have met this ing t o do honour to our illustrious guest, to 0 aPp ro ,. u r admirati on o f hi s groa t genius, and our of the benefits he has conferred upon e, vork, tstature of our country by those immortal Ne t ,f el l 'u Which path os an d h umour are so happily 4 ad b alat one knows not which most to admire, t4 re w hich be h as not only enriched our litora- Tll 4 o u t 00 n tributed t o t h e en j oymen t o f thousands. I °lle point i n connect i on w i t h th ose wor k s ink we must all admire—that is, the un 'llk t o e h°l2 xesty of purpose which has never induced tea ch Pander to vicious tastes, which has made him that 118 . --un consciously, perhaps—to admire only )1 011 1'1 ' 14 is beautiful and true, and helped us to ty-0 ex ecration and scorn all that is loath h vile () Iv , and bas e . I n t h ese works he has k nown • 4105,, to in vest with interest, and has ever promoted e f p e e el t i n L g which bind man to man, and tend to pit y w , that catholic, large, and generous hums (([l, "'eh is the noblest attribute of human kind. to, h . e ") on, f• C onsidering that we have come hero tI4 to d o an I honour to such an author and such a e4t4 3 l„,.taink it must be a source of unbounded qutl°l4 t o 'e very one that on this occasion the chair has been filled by my noble friend Lord Lytton. (Cheers.) Himself a man of trans cendent genius, who has taken a foremost rank in the literature of the civilised world, he was the man to do justice to our friend Charles Dickens. (Cheers.) And while we may be gratified at his presence, so nothing could be more becoming or graceful in Lord Lytton than to preside on this oc casion. I should be ashamed to *advert to anything personal to myself, and yet I trust you will forgive me for saying that when this toast was committed to my care it was to mo a source of infinite gratifi cation and delight. It bridges over the chasm of years and takes me back to a period whe❑ the noble lord and I were you:ig in life and starting on our several careers. To me, and, I believe, to me alone, then his college companion, he confided the fact that he was composing that beautiful poem on sculpture which was crowned by the academical Ariz and it was to me an immense gratification to be the first to announce to him as I did—for he had left the University when the prize was adjudged— that he had triumphed over all his competitors. (Cheers.) That was the commencement of his literary career, and what a series of brilliant successes my noble friend has achieved. (Cheers). Poet, novelist, dramatist, thinker, critic, philosopher—how much has he contributed to the enjoyment, the edification, and instruction of the intellectual world in all these departments. (Cheers.) Like Sheridan passing the bounds of that literary world in which he was destined to shine, and in which I first saw that star rise which was afterwards to culminate to such a height of glory, and to shine with so much brilliancy, he has added the reputation—the great, deserved, and honourable reputation—of statesman and orator of the first and highest order. (Cheers.) I ven ture to predict that those speeches which, in the great arena of political conflict, the House of Com mons, he has pronounced will remain as models of the highest and noblest eloquence, although I must say I generally differed from him. (Ailaugh.) Those speeches contain thoughts deserving the attention of the most profound thinker, clothed in that glow ing, graceful language of which no man is a more complete master than my noble friend. (Cheers.) I must not forget, however, that my noble friend is not himself the hero of this evening. We are met to do honour to our guest and friend by his side, who derives additional lustre and brilliancy, and is crowned with greater glory from the fact of the noble lord presiding this evening. (Cheers.) In the toast 1 have to propose let me embody the hope that for long years our noble friend may continue to contribute to the literary glory of our country ; and that in that august assemblage to which, by a wise and just exercise of the prerogative of the Crown, and with the universal approbation of all thinking men, he has been elevated, the eloquent orator will not be silent, but will continue in that path of glory and renown he has so long trod with so much honour to himself and advantage to his country. (The toast was drunk with great cordiality.) Lord LITTON—I am deeply sensible of the kind ness with which you have received the toast which I rise to acknowledge, proposed to your notice as it has been in far too flattering terms. In the pre sence of so many distinguished cultivators of art and letters, it would ill become me to say a single word as to my own aims and attempts as a writer. But I cannot pass over with equal brevity the pleasure I derive from the compliment I have received at your hands as your chairman, having been proposed by one who was associated with all my avocations and aspirations in my earliest years. It is true that he has achieved, and nobly achieved, the highest honours of a noble profession—(cheers)—it is true that he was my fellow collegian and my familiar friend at that age when friendships ought to be un ending. I remember as if it were yesterday the pride I had in every exhibition of those remarkable talents which since have become the admiration of our Parliament, and now reflect lustre on our bench. (Cheers.) Something, indeed, of a melancholy sen timent mingles with the recollection of a period so illustrious for contemporaries unusually brilliant, when we walked with Macaulay and supped with Praed, and regarded each other with unchangeable affection. (Cheers.) You have been graciously pleased to confer on me n compliment for acting as your chairman ; on the contrary, thanks are due from me to those who, through your accomplished secretary, proposed to me that honour. I shall always regard it as a great distinction to have presided on an occasion which conferred a pub lic honour on one whom I so warmly admire as a writer and so cordially esteem as a man. (Cheers.) Before sitting down you will allow me to propose a toast—the health of that part of the audience which every writer of polite letters is the most ambitious to please—l mean those who are our gentlest critics, but who, at the same time, are the most formidable rivals whenever they condescend to compete with us as authors. (Hear, hear.) It has been said that man was born to look upward and contemplate the stars. I now look upward, and, in contemplat ing the stars, I propose " The Health of the Ladies." (Loud cheers). Mr. BUCKSTONE said he was not aware why he had been called upon to respond to the toast, as he was not particularly a ladies' man. (Laughter, and cries of " Oh, oh"). He admitted, however, that there were some ladies of his acquaintance with whom he had passed many happy hours. It was not, perhaps, the right thing or etiquette to tell their names, but on this occasion he would make the company present the confidants of his tender pas sion. He mentioned the names of Mrs. Gamp, Betsy Prig, Mrs. Nickleby, and not forgetting Mrs. Harris. (Roars of laughter.) Having confessed to the happy hours he had enjoyed with those ladies, he hoped he might be forgiven for venturing to re spond for the ladies present. (Laughter.) They were met to say good-bye to their friend Mr. Dickens, who was about to visit America. He (Mr. Buckstone) had, as was well known, travelled through every State of the Union and visited every city, was perfectly well acquainted with the cha racter of our American cousins —(a laugh) —and believed they might safely trust Mr. Dickens in their hands. The proceedings then ended, and numbers of personal friends pressed round Mr. Dickens as he left the hall, and cordially wished him a safe voyage and a speedy return. LAW INTELLIGENCE.--This Day. COURT OF EXCHEQUER. Before Mr. Baron Martin and aCommon Jury.) HAWKSLEIGII V. STOW. This was an action to recover the balance of a sum of £1,400 due upon a bond, and the defence was that by certain arrangements between the par ties themselves the amount of £4OO was nut due by defendant. It appeared that the parties were in business together at Goole, and that both families lived on the mostfriendly terms. The plaintiff in July last accepted a bond from defendant for £1,400 worth of certain stock which ho had disposed of to him, but this bond was not executed till May following. The plaintiff had not received anything except the interest, although the deed provided that the £l,OOO should be paid in four instalments, and none of these instalments had been paid up. Several letters were read from the parties which showed the intimacy they were on, and in one of them the plaintiff wrote that he should never forget the former kindness of the defendant to him, and . should be happy to do the best he could for his family. Several other letters were read, showing that at the execution of the deed several fresh ar rangements had been made, because there was a difficulty in getting the defendant to execute the bond. Mr. Baron Martin said that these letters, having been written in March, had nothing to do with the question. - A verdict was then taken for the plaintiff on the bond, and leave given to move for a new POLICE IN TELLIGEvCE—This Day. THAMES. STEALING CIGARS.—Pbilip Dicker, a lad in the service of Mr. Morris Deans, cigar-maker, of 251, Mile-end-road, Stepney, was brought befcire Mr. Paget, charged with stealing 12 cigars, the property of his master. Mr. l'aget columitted the pawl= for trial. THE SUN, LO JA, MONDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 4, 1867. HOVEY MARKET A ND COMMERCIAL. INTELLIGENCR, TWELVE O'CLOCK. In the general discount market there continues to be a very moderate inquiry for accommodation, owing to the payments due thig` day (the 4th of the month) having been satisfactorily provided for. The rates current for the negocia.tion of first-class short-dated paper range from about to 1 per cent. Business in the corn market this morning exhibited very little animation. There were rather liberal supplies of home-grown and fer,ign wheat on offer, and prices gave way freely is. to 2s. per quarter. Atlantic and Great Western Debentures remain steady, at 25i 26i, and the Consolidated Mortgage Bonds at 20 21. Messrs. Chat'Leris, Nichols, and Co. have an nounced a first dividend of 2s. 61 in the pound to the creditors of the Peninsular, West Indian, and Southern Bank (Limited), in liquidation. Advices from Manchester state that Bolckow, Vaughan, and Co. (Limited) are about to reduce their nominal capital from £2,500,000 to £1,500,000, and their shares from £lOO to £6O ; a step that has already improved the value of the property, and caused the shares again to be quoted at a premium. Freights on the Wear have ruled steady this week, and London is quoted 6s. 3d. to 61. 6d. per ton, HaMburg £8 15s. to £9, Nieu Dieppe £7, Ostend £8 15s. ; Alexandria rates are lower, and other Mediterranean rates about the same as last week. Indian rates aro firm outward, and the same home ward. The Committee of the Stock Exchange have amended the rule No. 109, which stands now as follows :—" The buyer of bonds or other securities, subject to periodical drawing, shall not be entitled to claim delivery thereof previous to the day for which they were bought. Bargains must be settled in securities which have not been officially notified as drawn. In case of the erroneous delivery of any drawn securities, the buyer (on receipt of undrawn securities and on allowance being made for any drawing or dividend of which he may have lost the benefit) shall deliver such securities back to the person who held them at the time of the official notification of the drawing, or shall pay to him any proceeds received from such drawing, provided the said securities or the proceeds thereof be traced to, and remain in the possession and under the control of, such buyer ; all intermediate persons being re leased from liability. To claim in respect of the erroneous delivery of drawn securities will not be entertained by the committee unless made within nine calendar months." The pig iron trade at Teeside and Cleveland seems as active as it had been for the last month, and shipments continue good. Various good trans actions are reported. Warrants are quoted at 445. 6d. sellers and 41s. 3d. buyers. The list quota tions are rather advanced, No. 1 being 488 6d. ; No. 3, 445. ; and No. 4, 435. net cash, or Is. per ton more four months' bills. Stocks are gradually diminishing, both in makers' premises and in the stores. During the week the arrivals at Hartlepool have been exceedingly limited, 37 ships only having entered the East Harbour, three with cargoes and the remainder in ballast, whilst during the same period 119 have sailed. At West Hartlepool 62 vessels have arrived, eleven importing timber cargoes, three grain, and two goods and merchan dise, whilst 114 have sailed. The London freights have varied somewhat during the week, owing to the number of ships in port, and as low as 6s. 6d. has been accepted, but the current rate is Gs. 9d. A higher figure has been given to a few certain sized vessels with an uncertain despatch. From the manufacturing districts the accounts for the past week state that business, in most, de partments, has been very quiet. At Manchester prices of cloths and yarns have continued to recede, but manufacturers and spinners have tolerable con tracts on hand. In the woollen districts of Leeds, Bradford, and Huddersfield, business in all depart ments has remained very quiet, the great bulk of the winter demand has now been supplied, and spring goods as yet are only partially dealt in. The hosiery and lace trades of Leicester and Notting ham have been dull, only a few fancy goods being in request. In the hardware districts of Birmingham, Sheffield, and Wolverhampton the staple trades have remained exceedingly dull, although some large contracts are out for railway iron for some of the principal companies. Two o'CLock. In the market for the English securities there has been a decline of per cent., but on the realisation of profits on " Bear " accounts the comparison of values is reduced to 1-16 per cent. The latest prices are cocsquently 94 1-16 3-16 for money and account, and 94 3-16 5-16 for December.

Italian have declined f, to 44+ Turkish 5 per Cents. to 311 i f , Mexican i t , to 141 15, and Spanish Passive i f, to 181 19 ; but Greek Bonds have advanced to 12+ 1. In the Railway Share Market business has re mained very quiet, and in most instances prices have shown a further downward movement. Great Eastern have receded I, Metropolitan, Midland, and South Eastern each f, Caledonian 1, and Great Northein A Stock li. Miscellaneous and Finance Shares continue very inactive. Berlin Waterworks, however, have im proved to 121 ; and Peninsular and Oriental Steam to 541 ; Rio de Janeiro Gas are marked 21i ; Royal Mail Steam, 77 ; and General Credit and Discount, 5 7-16ths. The Foreign and Colonial lines show little varia tion of importance. Great Luxembourg are dealt in at 8 5-16th, San Paulo at 16k, Great Western of Canada at 16/ ; East Indian at 110 1101, and Bombay and Baroda at 103 i. In American Securities Eric shares have declined 1/, to 451 46, and the United States 5-20 Bonds 1 1-16th, to 694 70 ; while Illinois shares continue firm at 80/ 811. Bank Shares are very quiet.

To THE EDITOR.—I have no important news to communicate, but the g eneral line of business has so much improved that it is some gratification to state it. The "Hildreth Mill," the " Metacom ) " the " Manhattan," and the " California" ate all pounding away day and night. In the mines there is still a greater improvement; The " South America" have opened Upon a two-foot mein of great value. The Plymouth" have struck ,a splendid two-foot ledge in their straight shaft: The Great Eastern Company are taking out lar g e quantities of valuable are. The Diana, Florida, Titnoke, Troy, and North Star, are ke e pi ng up th e i r lick, while the Magnolia, Savannah, Fuller, and lesser lights, are all doing well, and in fact improv ing. Of one thing I. am now certain, that Lander Hill (that portion that is being worked) from the Savage to the Summit, and from Cedar ravine to the Great Eastern, is the richest piece of mining ground known. There are scores of parties hunt ing chlorides within that space, and many making little fortunes. There is not a single failure where they have gone down. That portion of the district is full of very valuable ore. I have full confidence in all Lander Hill, but nearly all the work has been done there, and of course there is greater success there, The outside districts are till improving.- Even old played out " fens" is coming Oat of the kinks. Over at New Pass they are getting fine gold ore, and Slawson is taking down the little W mill to move over there. The little mill at Bunker Hill is making money fast. The Big Smoky mill is going up rapidly. The Union mill at lot Creek is turning out bul lion in a steady stream. The mill at Reveille has been re-sold to responsible parties, and will be im mediately put into running order. The Centenary mill at Newark, I suppose, stattA yesterday. They have valuable ore enough to run six months on hand, they have 20-stamp mill to start up with 10, and have built more ovens.—NEVADA. LATEST PRICES OF SILVER MINING STOCKS, AT SAN FRANCISCO.

N. Nash, church warden of Otford, whose extraordinary sagacity and doci lity made him a general favourite in this locality, and whose exploits as a letter-carrier have been chronicled, died on rriday, at Broughton Farm, to the great regret of hig master and family, to whom he was a most faithful servant. Sailor was for many years " home postman" to Mr. Nash. Regularly every morning he watched for the postman as he came from Sevenoaks into the village, and followed him into Mr. Troughton's shop, where the post-office is kept, and sat patiently' watching while the letters were being allotted out, and when Mr. Nash's letters were ready for him he jumped up gaily to the counter and took them in his mouth, going directly home and delivering them to his master. lie Wa4 ftbOtit ten Sears old.--Sout/4-Eakni a(aCUO. Buincao dome. 87 3 6, 7 DRUIIY LANE. On Saturday evening another great and trium phant success was achieved by Mr. Chatterton by the production of Mr. Bayle Bernard's new adapta tion of Lord Byron's historic tragedy, " Marino Faliero," under the title of " The Doge of Venice." Notwithstanding the original poem was never in tended for dramatic representation, though written in the form of a drama, it has on many Occasions formed the basil of a' stage play and opera. In 1821 a version of it n•a3 first performed with but indifLrent success ; in 1812 it was again produced under the managem3nt of Mr. 'Macrealy, but it failed in attraction. A very different result at tended the adap!ation of the poem abroad : M. Casimir Delarigne, many years ago, made it the .subject of a romantic trap ly ; Doniz!tti appro priated it as the libretto of his tragic opera, Marino Falioro," produced in Parid in 1835, and Mercantlante and Vtrli both. a lapted .it as the plot of "The Beavu" and' ." I Duc Foscari." M. Delavigne saw that Byron's drama had, as an acting play, two serious faults—first, the absent: of love; and second, the inadequacy of the motive which enkindled the Doge's awful resentment. Tu cure the first of these defects the French dramatist presumed a romantic passion between the duchess and her husband's nephew; to remedy the second, he represented Steno not only as the scribbler of a silly lampoon, but as the author of numerous insults and injuries, culminating in his assassination of the Doge's kinsman. This being the condition of the play when Mr. Bernard was asked to undertake its adaptation fur the spirited lessee of Drury lane Theatre, he says in his preface— , " That he was led to think that his best course was to combine as far as possible the poetry of Byron and the outline of his play with the additions of Delavigne, as a means of enlarging the interest.and action, to.illustrath both by selections from the music of Donizetti and the above composers, and to add the spectacle of the Venetian Carnival—on the last day of which, according to Byron, the offence was committed which forms the groundwork of the play. At the same time the adapter found it necessary to modify both Byron and Delavigne in some particulars. He felt it best to divest the Doge of that sanguinary feeling which renders him occasionally so repellant, and to give him, in lieu of this, a greater patriotic sentiment. He also saw the necessity of preserving the purity of the Duchess, whilst struggling with the attachment she had formed for Fernando ; and, lastly, in order to remove from this attachment all offensiveness, he perceived the propriety of changing the nephew into the adopted son of the Doge." The play being thus treated, the plot of " The Doge of Venice" is simply as follows : Marino Faliero, an old man of heroic character, who in his day had done the State great service, is married to a young and beautiful woman, to whom he is devotedly attached. Michael Steno, a young patrician, one of the Council of Forty, writes upon the ducal chair, during the Carnival of 1355, some ribald lines derogatory to the lady's virtue. For this offence he is sentenced by his peers merely to a month's imprisonment. The inadequacy of the punishment so infuriates the Doge that he allies himself with a band of malcontents, and plots with them for the overthrow of the State. A relenting conspirator calls upon one of the nobles, in whom he feels a friendly in terest, to warn him of his danger, and is gradu ally led to betray his associates. The conspiracy is crushed at the moment of its development,. and the Doge arrested in his palace. Thence he is conveyed to the Giant's Staircase, where he suffers death. The conception of the part of the Doge by - Mr. Phelps is precisely that which might have been expected from such an accomplished actor. It is a great part added to those he has already made his own ; and the dig- iry, passion, and pathos he infuses into it renders it equal to his King Lear or Richelieu. Mrs. Her man Vezin's part—that of the Duchess—has been cut down almost to nothing, leaving her but little to do, but out of that little she creates a great part, thus materially strengthening the new adaptation. Mr. Cowper supported the part of Israel Bcrtuccio with the greatest excellence, and next to him Mr. M'lntyre again distinguished hinnplf by his vigorous rendering of , the conspirator Stozzi. Fernando was entrusted to Mr. Edmund, Phelps, and Steno to Mr. li. Sinclair, each of whom merit great praise. Of the scenery and mounting it is impossible to speak too highly. The represen tation of the Carnival at the Pizetta of St. Marc is a perfect wonder of stage illusion. The brilliant moonlight falling upon the Adriatic, the gently gliding gondolas, the soft music of the barcarole singers, and lastly, the wild delight of crowds of maskers and dancers, make up a scene of unex ampled beauty and excitement, such as we may safely say has never been excelled in dramatic annals. At the fall of the act drop at this point in the play the delight of the audience knew no bounds. Loud calls arose for " Chatterton," " Beverley." Each gentleman on his appearance was received with a perfect storm :of applause, and as a crowning act o f approval Mr. J. Cormack, the ballet master, who also received the compliment of a special call. The oi,her scenes in the play, the Doge's Chamber, Leoni's Palace overlooking the gra•ld canal, with a moonlight view of St. Paolo, the Arsenal of Venice, and the Giant's*Stair case, aro each miracles of scene painting. l'he new piece is a great and deserved success, and one which will most certainly rival in attraction all Mr. Chatterton's former productions, great as they have been.

THE BODY OF THE LATE EMPEROR MAXIMILIAN. —The Marican Standard contains the following :—" The reports circulated by various papers of this city, respect ing the bo x dy of Maximilian, are inexact. It has been sail that the body has undergone decomposition ; that it lacks a portion of the nose, so much so that it is supposed to be necessary to restore it with wax ; and that the eyes have been changed. We learn, from the medical mon who have seen the body, that no decomposition whatever has taken place, and that it is not true that a portion of the nose is wanting. Respecting the eyes, they are preserved in the same manner as is usual when bodies are em balmed." On the same subject the following letter is published :—"Few parsons know the particulaq of the so-called embalming of Maximilian. Instead of employing the Ganal system'of embalming . , the body was placed in a bath composed of reactives, and tha eyes wero replaced by glass ones taken from a Santa Ursula, which, as it is said, they found in the hospital where the operation was performed. The American journals have pretended that the body of the Emperor Maximi lian was hung up from malice. This is a mistake. It is true that it was hung up, but this was for the purpose of drying it. The photographs sold in Mexico, representing Maximilian after his death, are incorrect. After the body was dry it was clothed in pantaloons and jacket. High boots were put on his feet, and white gloves on his hands. According to the information I have obtained, the body cannot be taken to Vienna, except in a state of ,putrefac tion, if proper measures aro not promptly taken.' .14 I 1241 15 3 134 a 611 120, 20 i 1171 1 161 1011 1 1 I(7i 1091 SPORTMG INTELLIGENCE —This Dv.
