SEASON 1856. It. is respectfully announced that the OPERA SEASON will COMMENCE on SATURDAY, the.loth of May. On resuming the performances which have been, suspended during the last three years, the Director of her Majesty's Theatre is anxious to assure the patrons of the Opera and the public, that no exertion shall be wanting to secure for tide establishment that kt..se long maiuta.ined ; and be trusts that the renemil Or the enterprise Under more prosperous auspices will be accompanied with that favour and support which no frequenter of the Opera needs to be reminded were for so many years accorded to a brilliant and , successful management, The secession, in 1847, of many of those performers who had long been attached to the Opera House was the com mencement of a long and arduous struggle to maintain the fortunes of the old house ; and it was not till the wealth of four successive competitors had been fruitlessly lavished upon the rival theatre, that Mr. Lumley was reluctantly compelled to retire from the contest. From that time to the present Mr. Lumley's efforts have been unremitting to re-open her Majesty's Theatre upon a permanent basis, and to restore the Opera to its ancient home. He has received liberal encouragement from every side, and, effectually aided by noble and generous support from a quarter where the refinements of art and taste never fail to find a patron, he is now enabled gratefully to announce the immediate resumption of performances. At the present moment there are vocalists, of an excellence seldom surpassed, who have never been heard by an English public. Of these the elite have been secured for the present season. Her Majesty's Theatre is marked out by its size, its situa tion, and its convenience of access, no less than by old and interesting associations, as the appropriate seat of the Opera. In the acoustic properties, so essential to the effective pro duction of the lyrical drama, it is acknowledged to surpass every other stage in' urope. In consequence of some happy accident of construction a result has been attained that science has failed to explain, and that no architect could engage to reproduce, by which the faintest tones and the most delicate vocalisation penetrate with unimpaired clearness to the re motest recesses of the vast edifice. The arrangements complete:Sand in progress, both in Opera and Ballet, will, it is confidently hoped, be thought worthy of the former reputution of the Theatre, and of tho just ex pectations of its distinguished Supporters. In consequence of the late period at• which it was resolved to-open the Theatre, the arrangements, satisfactory as it is hoped they will even now be found, are not yet fully com pleted ; and negotiations aro in progress from which impor tant accessions are expected. The following arrangements have been completed : 0 MADAME ALBONI, Her first appearance in London these five years. MDLLE. PIC 70LOMONI, Her first appearance. MDLLE. GIUDITTA RIZZA, MDLLE.

The Earl of DERBY wished to ask the noble earl when the terms of the address to her Majesty on the treaty of pace would be laid on the table. He•thought their lordships ought to have the information before the evenin g on which it was intended to v o t e th e a dd ress . EarIGRANVILLE said it would be laid' on tho table of the house. very early on Monday. He was not sufficiently acquainted with the views entertained by the noble earl on the subject, but he hoped the terms of the address would be such as; to lead to its unanimous adoption. Lord BROUGHAM brought in a bill to facilitate procedure in prosecut'ons for offences before the magis trates of royal burghs in Scotland. Tie noble and learned lord explained the provisions of the bill, which was read a first time. MERCANTILE LAW. On the bringing up of the report of the Mercantile Law Amendment Bill, and the Mercantile Law (SoOt. land) Bill, the Lord Chancellor stated the nature of certain amendments which he had made to the bills. After a short conversation, in which Lord OVERSTONE and the Rai of Ilinitowsic took part, the report on each of the bills was received. The Earl of GRANVILLE moved that the bouse at its rising do adjouau tall Sunday, and do then meet for the purpose of attendin4 divine service at Westminster Abbey on that day, being the day appointed by her Majesty's proclamation for a general thanksgiving. Their lordships then adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS—ghis Evening.) The SPEISER took the chair at the usual hour. NEW WRIT. On the motion of Mr. HATTER, a new writ was or dered to i*mo for Olehe'll:tan, Mr. C. L. G. Berkeley having accepted the Stewardship of the Chiltern Hundreds. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The Lords' ainegidments to the Lincoln Water Bill were corpfddered and agreed to. The Sleaford and Tattershall Turnpike Trusts Bill was rt a 1 a third time and passed. The following bilk were considered and ordered to be committed :—Aberdeen and Scottish Midland Junction Railway Companies Amalgamation, Coventry (City) Gas, Edinburgh Water. Gravesend Improvement, and Leicester and Wclford Road. A number of petitions were presented against the abolition of Church Rates, and against the City of Lon don Corporation Bill. WILLS AND ADMINISTRATIONS BILL. Mr. HADFIELD asked whether the Wilts and Ad ministrati.ns.Bill would be proceeded in before the holi days, or when ; and whether it would have precedence of the two Scotch Education Bills of the Lord Advo cate ; and - whether such last mentioned bills, or either of them, will he proceeded with before the hllidays ? Sir G. GREY said the Wills and Administrations bill would be proceeded wieb W6'6 ; 416 holidays ; but with respect to the other bill.a he did 'not think they would be brought on before the Wnitiuntide recess; THE TREATY OF PEACE. Lord J. MANNERS begged to ask a question of her Majesty's Government. It vitae, whether, by the terms of ti.e Treaty of Peace, RusAla had, or had not., die right to re•erect the forts on the east coast of the Black Sea ? Lord PALMERSTON said the stipulations in the treaty, with respect to re-erecting works, applied to naval arsenals. It stipulated that no naval arsenals shou!d be re•erected in the Black Sea. The forts on the Circa -sign coats do not come under that definition. and there was nothing in the treaty of peace to prevent Russia re-erecting those forts it she thought proper.. TEIE SUNKEN RUSSIAN SHIPS. Lord W. GRAHAM asked the First Lord of the Treasury, whether, under the additional and transitory article attached to the treaty of peace, the Russians would be allowed to raise the ships which are now sunk in the harbour of Sebastopol, and bring them through the Dardanelles to any other part of the Russian domi nions Lord PALMERSTON—By the treaty of peace Russia was to have no liue•of-battle ships or frigates in the Black Sea, but there was no limitation as to the Baltic. If Russia preferred raising those ships, and taking them round to the Baltic, he did not think that this country would object to her doing so, if she thought fir, instead of building new ship., which she hal the power to do ; and with respect- to a question touching the two ships built at Nichnia.ieff, he did not think as tar as her Majtsty's Government was concerned, there could be any objection to Russia taking those ships from that port to the Baltic. ABJURATION BILL. Sir F. TFIESIGER asked when it was intended to s proceed with this bill? Mr. M. GIBSON said he could not tell the hon. gen- Vernal - . If the nobie toxl m the.head of the Government would make it convenient to give him a day to proceed with the bill, he would then tell the hon. member the day the bill would probably proceeded be with. Lord PALMER:S[I)N .aid he would communicate with the kon. member, and fix a cl,ty for the bill as early as possible after the recess. THE BAND IN KENSINGTON GARDENS. Lord R. GROSVENOR asked the First Lord of•the Treasury, whether, suoposing any members of the bands now'ordeied to play in the _Parks on Sunday afternoon should object, to do 8(1, either from conscientious motives, or from a desire to enjoy their Sunday holiday, they wou•d be released from such duty? Sir DE L. EVANS said he thought the noble lord had not considered the subject, or he would not have asked the que-tion. He thought it would have been better if the noble I)rd had left this to the Commander in-Chief, becalse it was making a precedent for soldiers to be excused from important duties which they were required to perform on Sundays, and thereby interfere with the order and discipline of the army. • He hoped the Government would not giie any answer to the ques tion. Sir J. TROLLPE, on the part of the Colonel of the 2(1 Life Gnarls, explained that the hand of his regiment played in the Garde❑ cn Sundays, in accordance with orders from the authorities. He certainly, as the right hon. baronet (Sir B. Hall) hail on a former occasion said, concurred in the arrangements that had been made for the bands playing on Sunday, but not that he con curred in it. The Marquis of BLANDFORD protested against the members of the band being nailed on to play on Sundays, which was no part of t-ieir military duties. It should be borne in mind that colonels of regiments might have conscientious convictions against the practice, and then ' it would clash with military authority and interfere with good discipline, because, when an order was issued for a c donel to send his band to perform at a certain place he was not compelled to send the instruments, which were the exclusive property of the officers of the regiment. He condemned the practice of the band playing on Sundays in the public parks, because it destroyed the calm and quiet enjoyment of the people resort►ng to these parks for health and recreation, and created a nuisance in its stead. (Cries of "no, no.") Mr. orwAY said the objection of the noble lord with reference to the power of colonels of regiments to withhold the instruments to the bands of regiments, might be get over by the Government providing them. (Hear, hear.) He thought the sympathy of the noble lord with regard to the compulsory attendance of the members of the bands in the parks was misplaced, be cause he had no objection to the park keepers attend ing on Sunday that he and his friends might enjoy re tired arid quiet recreation there ou a Sunday. H e (yh % Otway) was gratified to find so many of the inhabitants of London attended the gardens on a Sunday, and hoped they would soon be doubled ; and on their behalf lie thanked the right hon. hart. (Sir B. Hall) for affording them this harmless and recreative amusement on Sundays. Mr. WIGRA.M was in favour of the bands playing in the gardens on Sunday. _ _ Mr. ADDERLEY said there 'was a constitutional question at issue herd whether a Minister of the Crown was empowered to contravene a recent vote of ',hat house with reference to Sunday amusements. (Rear, Itettr.) He alluded to the recent vote of the house with reference to opening the Museum, &c., on Sunday. It was very easy to congregate a rabble, but he was couvinc..d the middle- and respectable classes of England were averse to these spectacles on a SuAlay. (Hear.) Mr. DRUMMOND said the terdaocy of late had been to deprive the people of recreation, and it was the duty of the house to consider whether it was desirable to continue that line of policy. Sir B. HALL said that he had not contravened the decisions of the Hous,e of Commons by ordering the band to play in the Parks, because it did not trench on the principle then under disctnisior. He was only following out what he did last year, and which was approved of by the people. The same of were taken to the opening of Hampton Court Palace and Kew Gardens on Sundays as was now done to the hand playing on Sundays in the Parks, hut since they bad been opened the former had been attended by 20,000, and the latter by 14,000 or 15,000 persons on a Sunday, and he dnabted if any gentleman would venture to rise in that house to pro pose its discontinuance. (Hear, hear.) So farfrom the assernb*e of these persons in the parks on Sun day being a nuisance, he looked on it with dif ferent feelings, and felt much pleasure on Sunday last at seeing so many respectable people assembled there, and evidently rationally enjqying themselves. (Hear, hear.) He could not believe that those who assembled there on Sundays were actuated by any irreligious feelings, or with a wish to desecrate that day which hail been set apart for better purposes. (Hear, hear.) He thought, ho wever, that the time h&c* not arrived when the people should be deprived of inndcent Sunday recreation. (Hear.) Mr. WALPOLE was opposed to a puritanical °beer vauce of the Sabbath, and also to the intro duction of new customs, and the Continental principle of Sunday arnus«iments. The observance of that day should be left to the consciences of the people, and not -interfered with by the - - fleyertintent and thera could could be that the course now pursued by the Government was objectionable to a large number of the people of this country. (Hear.) He thought the Government should have first obtained the consent of the house to this innovation. Col. NORTH said the question of the noble lord was likely to have an effect on military discipline, for if sanctioned it would be difficult by and by to distin guish between what was duty and what interfered with, a soldiers conscientious feelings. - Lord PALMERSTON concurred in what had fallen from Sir De Lacy Evans, that it would be indiscreet of this house to inter fere with the military authorities in enforcing military discipline. The question the noble lord had put to the Government was one with reference to military discipline, and he (Lord Palmerston) declined to enter into it. If any responsibility was attached to the right. hon. baronet (Sir B. Hall) for what he had done, it attached iVso to him (Lord Palmerston) for the right honourable oaronst consulted him first on it, and he entrely concurred in his proposi tion. (Cheers.) This was not a course in opposi tion to the resolution adopted a short time mots by the house, neither was it a new thing. The band used formerly to play on Sundays in the Park, and the custom bad been followed at Windsor Castle ever since the time of George 111. He (L'ird Palmerston) con sidered that the people of the metropolis ought to have some recreation provided for them, and the fact of great numbers assembling in the Parks on Sun days, to the exclusion of the few, it chewed that this was a wise and proper application of the public money. (Cheers.) It was no desecration of the Sab bath to enjoy intellectual amusement combined with healthful recreation. (Cheers.) The subject then dropped. [LEFT SITTING.] THE MILITARY BOARD OF INQUIRY. (This Day.) - The Board re aßsembled at the usual hour. Mr. Assistwit-Cornmissary General Crookihank asked the B.►ard to call upon the Adjutant• General or the Quarterinager-General to produce Lord Raglan's letter, containing an expression of his lordship's disapprobation of that conduct for which he (Mr. Crookshauk) was placed under arrest by Lord Lucan. The Judge-Advocate-General asked Mr. Crookshank to state in which department he expected the letter could be found. Mr. Cro , dtshank said he did not be lieve such a letter was in existence. Lnrd Locxu had expressed a belief that it wag, and he (Mr. Crookshank) wished it to be produced if it were in existence. Tile correspondence in connection with his arrest passed between Lord W. Paulett and Mr. Filder. . . The Court tzave no intimation of their intention to comply with Mr. Crooksbank's request. Sir R. Airey was called on . to Ms statement, but before doing so asked Colonel Tulloch if the notes of the evidence of Colonel Wetherall, banded into the hoard in accordance with his (3:r It. Airey'z.) request, were the original notes of the evidence given by the gaihint colonel before the cominaNder in the Crimea ? Colonel Tulloch said he believed they were. The evi dence was taken by him, and iva , ‘ in hii own hand writing. Colonel \Vetherall's evidence was mixed up with that of Colonel Gordon's; and when the evidence was sent to the latter for correction, he re-wrote it, sending back only the copy. Sir R. Airey—Where are the original minutes t Colonel Tulloch—Colonel Gordon has got them. Colonel Gordon said he had never had any other do cument in his possession than that now produced. The Judge-Advocate General—General Airey wants the original minutes taken by the Commander in the Crimea. Colonel Tulloch said he could not sea why this appli cation was persisted in. Colonel Wetherall and C done Gordon could both be called and could state if there was anything wrong in their evidence. Ho would make search for them, but his belief was that there were none others in existence but those produced. Gen. Airey—The object I have in asking for the pro duction will appear hereafter. In reply to a question from the judge-Advooate-Gene ral, Gen. Airey said it was difficult to point out the par ticular passages in the report to which he objected, from their being mixed up with passages which were unobjectionable. They were to he found in sentences, Darts and bits of sentences in the whole of the London report, to the end of the sixth line of the 37th page, He proceeded to say that before his answers were given to the string of queries sent to him by the Com missioners, Sir J. MeNiel and Col. Tulloch had made a preliminary report, which in some respectsdiffered roa-e -rially from that which bad been laid before Parliament ; and the very first sentence of that report stated that the Commissioners had completed their work. The report would be found in the archives of the Secretary at War's department, and be believed it contained no animadver sion upon the conduct of himself and Lord Lucan or any other officer. That preliminary report, he thought, took all the poison out of the queries, and be therefore gave himself little more trouble about them. He then proceeded to point out that the Commissioners had been led into misapprehensions in reference to the duties and powers of the Quarter-Mas ter-General's office by misconceptions as to the counter signature of checks and returns, and went into details with a view to show how the system looked, and the nature of the mistaken opinions which prevailed. He (Sir R. Airey) specially appointed C Wetherell as sub distributor ot stores, in order to avoid undue aprearance of formailty ; arid, in order to take additional care, lie gave instructions that no requisitions should be refused with out especial reference to him, and the Assistant Quar termasters were ordered to go to the Commissariat Stores every day, in order to make themselves ac quainted with what there was available for the troops ; and the consequence of this was, that articles which he did not fin-i iu the returns of the Commissariat Store keeper, the Assistant-Quartermaster found in the stores. He bad every reason to believe that the sub departments had been administered in accordance with the spirit of the general instructions. He believed that the chief sufferings of the army arose out of the difficulty that was experienced in bringing up bales of goods from the sea to a camp pitched seven miles off. (Sir R. .Airey quoted extensively from the evidence of several officers in support of his statements.) The great wants were, however, labour an I transit, and as the sufferings of the men increased the dificiencies in those respects were felt in proportion, and in order to show that he took every means to get rid of official routine, be mentioned that, by the regulations of the War-office forms were issued with twenty-four blanks to be filled up before a man could obtain a great coat, which forms ho mover were thrown aside and another issued with Lurd Raglan's consent with but one blank in it to be filled up before signed iiy him (Sir R. Airey). Regulations for warm clothing were issued faster than the men could fetch it. The failure of transport and the overworking of the men were questions which did not touch his peculiar responsibility. He emphatically disclaimed the possibility of any two individuals, whether civilians or military moil coming to the Crimea in the middle of March, and be able to arrive at a fair report or opinion upon what could or could not be done by the army there, placed as it was in a position of difficulty—beyond all human conception—and in the middle of winter. Sir Richard Airey ronclueed his statement with an elaborate panegyric on the conduct of the laee Lord Raglan during the time he commanded the army in the East. The Judge-Advocate-General—Do you intend to call witnesses to-day, General Airey I General Airey—Yes, The Committee adjourned four half an hour. Oa the re-assembling of the Board Sir Richard Airey, in reply to a question from Sir W. Rowan relative to the army lauding in the Crimea without their knapsacks, said, that the phy sical state of the men was such that it was consi dered better they should land in as light marching order as possible. e the voyage across the Black Sea the men died fast from cholera, and they weee thrown over board to an alarming extent. As this wise the first night of the army's bivouacking in the enemy's territory, it was considered desirable by Lord Raglan that the men should substitute a blanket and a chaiere of clothes for the knapsack. In Bulgaria the men had suffered so much from heat that their knapsacks had to be carried for them. Tlit3 Commissioners conclusions with refer ence to the sufferings of the men from want of their knapsacks were founded in error. Inquiries were made every day as to the state of the men, and reports were each morning laid before Lord Raglan. Col. Wetherall was then called, and examined by Sir Her Majesty having been gracioasly•pleased to signify her intention of granting the " Sebastopol" Clasp to the officers and crews of her Majesty's ships employed in co operation with the land forces in the reduction of Sebas topol, as well as a Clasp, bearing on it the word " Azoff," to the officers and crows of her Majesty's vessels employed is tie Sea of Azoff, the Lor4sCommissioners of the Admi ralty hereby giviniolice of rtmsatne.
