HOWARD, Surgeon-Dentist, 52, Fleet street, has introduced an entirely new description of ARTI FICIAL TEETH ,fixed without springs, wires, or ligatures. They so perfectly resemble the nataral teeth as not to be distinguished from the original by the closest observer; they will never change colour or decay, and will be found very superior to any teeth ever before used. This method does not require the extraction of roots, or any painful operation, and will support and preserve teeth that are loose, and is guaranteed to restore articulation and mastication ; and that Mr. Howard's improvement may be within the reach of the most. econo mical, he has fixed the charges at the lowest scale possible.

BY SAMUEL LA.IIIEBT , 37, BEDFORD SQUARE, LONDON, Matriculated Member of the University of E dinbur g h, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &c. The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con sequences resulting from certain habits, i rregu larities, and excesses , w hich have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man hood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any other class of dis?ase known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of their physiealpcpoinndesitsr a,nadupdrnomaersetco which ryusevoefhahvumaning hazarded the the health, ha entitled. It is absolutely necessary that all men sh ou l d know that t h ere are principles of personal management which cannot be violated with out incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret suc ceed the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how those penalties may be mitigated, how the sting of their. bitterness may be removed, and how the evil and its consequences may be:avoided, and, above all, that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure.

WILLIAM B. LEWIS, Secrotary. ADY. FRANKLIN'S FINAL SEAR CELL-- J The Government having come to the con elusion that the fate of the crews of her Majesty's ships Erebus and Terror requires no further investigation on their part, Lady Franklin, in accordance with her sense of what is due to the lost navigators, is now fitting out an expedition at her own cost. . As a preliminary measure she sought assistance from the Admiralty, by asking for the loan of the Arctic ship Redd lute, which had been restored in perfect order to, our Queen. by the American nation, and also for the gift (as granted in her former private expeditions) of such stores frOm her Ma jesty's dockyards as are available for this special Service only. Compliance with these requests having been declined, Lady, Franklin is now devoting her whole fortune to this final search ; and a large screw yacht (the Fox) lying at Aberdeen, has been purchased, which the distinguished Arctic officer. who has accepted the command of her (Captain McClintock, R.N.) has pronounced to be perfectly adapted to this em:' ployment. Not repeating the arguments we formerly made use of to induce the Government to undertake a final and exhaus tive search, we hold to the opinion that it is the duty of Englishmen to examine that limited area whence the traces of our missing countrymen were derived, which, though it lies to the south of well-searched tracts, and has been ap proached by vessels that have returned without loss, has never yet been explored. Supported by the advice of those experienced Arctic sea men, in whom she has every reason to confide, Lady Franklin makes this last effort to clear away the mystery that shrouds the fate of her husband and his crews, and possibly to resale from their insulated icy abode among the Esquimaux some of his younger companions, who may still be prolonging a dreary existence. On such an occasion we, whose names are hereunto sub scribed, feel confident that this our appeal will not remain unanswered by the British people, who will, we doubt not, tender to the widow of the illustrious navigator that sym pathy which his fame and her devotion must call forth, and will aid her in carrying out an enterprise involving, as we believe, the honour of the nation. We earnestly, therefore, entreat our countrymen to unite with us in contributing to this noble object _ _ Roderick I. Murchison, Pres.

This noble band of warriors will ar rive in London from their respective regiments on Thursday, and be billeted for the ni g ht. On Fri day morning they will parade in St. James's Park, at the rear of the Horse Guards, and thence march to the Cavalry exercising ground, Hyde Park, where the will take place. In 4d investiture dition.to the regimentsaierestyadynamed, which will occupy positions on the ground, detachments from those regiments quartered m.Aldershot, &c., which served during the war from the battle of Alma to the capture of Sebastopol will be present to witness the imposing ceremony. _ A position on the extreme left will be reserved for the boys of the Royal Military Asylurit. Two field batteries of Artillery and a troop of Royal Horse Artillery have been ordered from Woolwich to as sist at the ceremony. Royal salutes will be fired on the arrival of her Majesty and at the conclusion of the distribution. The ground will be kept by the Ist Life Guards, assisted by a strong force of the metropolitan police. The half-yearly examination at the Royal Mili • tary Academy, Woolwich, having been brought to a close early on the 15th inst., the remainder of the term has been occupied in giving the gentle. man cadets of that institution a practical insight into the different drills and exercises considefed necessary for officers of Artillery and Engineers. i Yesterday the company under Capt. Shakespear, with the whole of the of attached, paraded at 2.30 in review order, under arms, and were sup plied with blank ammunition for inspection. The battalion then performed evolutions. At the ter mination of the inspection the company was highly complimented by Col.

Yesterday the officers and men of the Royal Ma rine Light Infantry who are to be present in Lon don on the occasion of the distribution of the Vic- toria Cross were inspected at Chatham by the Colonel Commandant. The battalion of Marines will be 800 strong, and those from Chatham will leave the garrison this morning. The advices of our Malta correspondent reach to the 17th June, and report the departure on the 11th from Tunis, for Cagliari, of the squadron under Admiral Lord Lyons for which port the Vigilant screw steam gimboat took her departure on the 15th, from Malta, with the mails and despatches by the Vectis, from Marseilles, and the Indus, from Southampton. The Victor, 6, dispatch gun-boat, Commander T. R. De Hoisey, arrived at Sheerness about six p.m. on Sunday. The Pioneer was to sail from Bermuda the day after she left. The Myrtle, paddle, Mr. Bourchier, master com manding, left Sheernes s yesterday morning, with the crew of the Locust, to work the gun-boats Jas per and Jasseur to Portsmouth. The Renovn, 90, screw, Sheerness, got steam up in the basin for a contractor's trial. We hear her machinery worked satisfactorily ; but her sternpost and frame worked, which proves that she is too weak there. Report says that she will have to be re-docked. The Gauges, 84, is daily expected to be commis sioned at Sheerness as a flagship. The Intrepid, 6, screw despatch gunvessel, Com mander W. Wood, arrived at Portsmouth yester day forenoon from the West India station to be paid off. The Flying Fish, 6, screw despatch gunvessel was taken out of Portsmouth harbour yesterday to make a trial with a new four-bladed propeller upon the French principle. Vice-Admiral SirE. C. Strode has had the vacant good service pension conferred on him by the First Lord of the Admiralty. Mr. C. H. Carpenter is appointed mate to the Hawke. DE&TH OF ADMIRAL BROWN. Admiral of the Blue Thomas Brown died at his resi denca, Rockstone-terrace, Southampion, on the 17th inst., aged 80. He was midshipman of the Phoenix, 36, at the capture of the French frigate Resolute, 46, in 1791, and of the Minerva, 38, at the reduction of Pondi cherry in 1793 ; was Lieutenant of the Flora, 36, com manding her launch at the landing in Egypt, 1801, for which he received the gold medal ; was commander of the Orestes, 14, in 1804, and was frequently engaged with the enemy's flotilla, captured two armed schuyts and engaged a praam. mounting 13 guns, bearing a Rear- Admiral's flag, in the presence of a flotilla of 30 sail ; he subsequently destroyed th e O restes w h en he go t , aground off the aaravelines in 1805, to prevent her fall , ing into the enemy's hands; was Captain of the Solebay, 32, Yengeur, and Bulwark, 74, and actively employed on the coast of France from 1808 to 1811, and of the Loire, 38, and Saturn, 56, on the coast of America ; he was twice engaged with Barney's flotilla on the Pataxent, and actively employed in that river and in the Potomao during the war, landing frequently with the seamen and marines. He had seen 38 years' service afloat, and was in receipt of the Ad miral's good service pension of 3001. a-year. His commissions were dated as follow :—Lieutenant, Oct. I 24, 1794 • Commander, Oct. 8 , 1802 ; Capta i n, Jan. 22, ' 1806 • Rear-Admiral, June 28 , 1838 ; Vi ce- Ad m i ra l , June 8, 1849 ; Admiral, July 4, 1855. By the death of Admiral Brown the following promotions take place on the flag list :—Vice-Admiral of the Red the Hon. Sir Anthony Maitland, K.C.8., to be Admiral of the Blue ; Vice-Admiral of the White the Hon. Sir F. B. R. Pellew, C. 8., K. 0.13., to be Vice-Admiral of the Red ; Vice-Admiral of the Blue A. R. Sharpe, C. 8., to be Vice-Admiral of the White ; Rear-Admiral of the Red E. Collier, C. 8., to be Vice-Admiral of the Blue; Rear-Admiral of the White Sir H.

Maitland, 0.13., to be Rear-Admiral of the Blue. By the death of Admiral Brown and the promotion of Sir T. Maitland an Admiral's good service pension, an Aide-cle-Campship to the Queen and the command of S. Excellent (the " best thing afloat") revert to the patronage of the Admiralty. During the storm which prevailed on Friday night last about 30 feet in length of the wall recently erected to enclose the extension of the Royal Arsenal, Wool wich, fell with a tremendous crash into the Plumstead road, the foundations having g i ve , way. " Her Majesty Queen Victoria completed her 38th year on the 24th inst., which it may not be I very gallant to state, but Queens must pay some penalty for their greatness,.and the annual, revels tion of their age is one of them. This auspicious event was seized hold of by Lord Napier, the new British Minister at Washington, to inaugurate his social advent; and he could hardly have adopted a happier expedient to crown the popularity he has so rapidly aCquired. For a week past his invita tions lava been flying about Washington, and many an expectant was full of suspense lest their hopes of sharing in the .gay scene might be disap pointed. These pleasant missives were distributed with tact and liberality, and when the occasion arrived all the fashionable world of Washington, with a few outside barbarians, were driving 'from all directions to the scene of festivity. " His Excellency the English Envoy has rented the `late residence of Governor Fish, which was in quite a shabby state when it came into his hands a few weeks since, but the paperhangers andgilders haVe been kept busy at work, and the appearance of the mansion on the night of the ball was the wonder of all who remembered its recent sorry con- dition. It had a bright, fresh, and jaunty look, and the radiance of numberless lustres and candela- ' bras threw a brilliancy over its aspect that asto nished some and delighted all. "By 10 o'clock most of the company had assem bled, and the large and curious crowd that sur rounded the house without had quite a treat in 'gazing at the showy toilettes and distinguished t ier sons that rapidly lighted from their carriages and passed Within the glittering precincts. • Three large. rooms were thrown open to the guests, one of Which was used as the ball-room, while a fourth of equal size was reserved as the supper-room. Dancing began at half-past 10 o'clock, at which time the crowd was at its height. Unusual vivacity seemed to pervade the throng, which may, in part, be attributed to the unexpectedness of such an enter tainment at this dead season of the year, as well as to the splendour of the scene itself, but more still, perhaps, to•the unlooked for novelty of assembling once more under the hospitable 'roof of a British Minister, when only a few months since it was sup posed that years might elapse before such rn event would probably occur again. Joyousness was on every face, animation iu every movement. The ladies were wreathed in smiles, while grim-visaged men looked placid and disposed for enjoyment. It would be too severe a tax on your readers to attempt any detailed enumeration of all the beautiful wo men and their costly toilets, or the remarkable and distinguished men that shared in the bounteous hospitalities of Napier-house, as it might be very properly called, and yet it were a slight to the thou sands who look to your columns for news both grave and gay, not to make some brief mention of those who were more or less ' the observed of all observers." It would be hardly less than rudeness not to single out at a start the noble host and his lovely partner for a word of merited compliment. Lord Napier has scarcely resided two months in Washington, and yet the remark. is universal, that be is the most popular Minister that England has ever sent us. This unanimous admission does credit to the discernment of the town, for to say nothing of the rare intelligence which manifests itself in the smallest things, he is the personification of a well bred gentleman. Unassuming in deportment, re fined in manners, gentle in phrase, he is at all times and places—in his own house and elsewhere, cour teous, straightforward, distingue, yet conciliating. On the present occasion he moved noiselessly about, seeking in every way to promote the hilarity of his guests, flattering some by a pleasant smile of recog nition, entertaining others with a lively word of wel come, and not omitting some kindly attention to the humblest of those bidden to the feast. Should the , reader be inclined to regard this hasty portrait as one of studied panegyric, let him, if he be a New Yorker, step forthwith into Brady's famous gallery and con template the inimitable photograph of his lordship suspended there, and then, be he, or she the most superficial of physiognomists, they will be convinced that Lord Napier looks every word I have pronounced him, aye, ' every inch a noble man.' " Lady Napier is in every respect worthy such a compeer. In person her ladyship is of the medium. height, and of symmetrical figure. Her face is handsome, but it is its expression of genuine affabi lity that constitutes its greatest charm. A winning smile of kindness is constantly playing over her fine features, and any one can see it is the reflex of the happy disposition within. She received her company on Thursday night with such ready welcome, ex tending her hand to nearly all, as to captivate every one who approached her. With becoming taste, she was dressed in the simplest attire, that she might not rival the toilets of her lady guests. A rich neck laoe of diamonds and emeralds was the only orna- ment she wore. " The diplomatic corps assembled in great force to do honour to their new confrere, and, in compli ment to the day several of them wore their various orders and decorations. The French Minister, Count Sartiges, was conspicuous from his broad red riband of the Legion of Honour, and the star on his left breast. The count is quiet and subdued in his manners, with a spice of hauteur that does very well in an ambassador. His countess, ci-devant Miss Thorndike, was one of the ornaments of the ball. She was elegantly attired iu blue satin, with white lace flounces. Though somewhat stout for so young a person her claims to beauty are undeniable. Her bust is magnificent, and her face is singularly attractive from its expression of real good nature. Her bearing, too, is easy and distinguished, and reminds one of a duchess of tile Faubourg St. Ger- main. " The Russian Minister, the Baron Stoeckel, tra velled all night from New York rather than fail in responding, in person to the invitation of tue Eng lish Minister, which would have been a serious slight, as the ball was in honour of the Queen. The peculiar relations, too, that are suppose 3, on the strength of rumour, to exist between our Govern ment and those of Russia and England in reference to China at this juncture, would have led to all kinds of inference if the Russian Minister had missed the ball. In order to dissipate suspicion and prevent surmise, Baron Stoeckel was unusually animated in his attentions to all parties, and seemed anxious to do all in his power to contribute to the éclat of the fete. His charming wife, aulrefois Miss Thompson, of Massachusetts, whether from a hint of her diplomatic spouse, or from her own inclina tion, was exceedingly gay. She danced the whole evening, and was singularly graceful in her move ments. She is a tall and well-shaped woman, pleasing expression of face, and delightfully unaf fected manners. Madame Cramer, the wife of a Secretary of the Russian Legation, attracted much attention. She is a Russian by birth, but was ad mired more for her beauty than that. She wore her hair a la Chinoise, which enhanced the effect of her striking physiognomy. " The absence of the amiable Minister from Prus sia, Baron Gerolt, was regretted, but he is now on his way to Europe on leave. There were many others of the diplomatic world worthy of remark, but I must turn my attention now to other quar ters. " It did credit to the Cabinet that they turned out to a man on this interesting occasion, and, happily for the ball, they brought their wives and daughters with them. The Secretary of State, General Cass, was not there, and if any one could find fault with this amiable man, he would deserve it now. He ought to have taken a hint from Baron Stoeckel, and shown himself at the house of the English Minister lest quidnuncs might infer a number of absurd things from his absence. Every body knows he is writing a despatch to Lord Napier, and in the ticklish state of things existing between the two countries General Cass ought to have imi tated Paul Pry, and just " popped in," if only for a moment. The truth is, however, that the Gene ral carries out his hygienic habits and regulations with the rigour of the laws of the Medes and Per sians. So careful is he of his health that ho will not dine out, not even with the President, and I doubt if he would sit up after 10 p.m. were he sure of the nomination in 1860. Twenty years ago, in Paris, at balls at his own splendid house—and he gave no end of them—he would quietly slip off to_ bed at 10 o'clock as though he dreaded the fate of Cinderella ; but fortunately, he left his amiable wife, three charining daughters, and a host of attaches to supply his place. Verily, he has his reward, for at 75 he has the appearance and vigour, mental and bodily, of a man of 50, and he will go through his career of Secretary of State with the rattle and dash of an impetuous juvenile, but witlr the caution and sagacity of an experienced veteran. The tall and very gentlemanly Secretary of the Navy, Governor Toucey, was there with his wife, who is nearly as tall, and equally distinguished in appearance and demeanour. The genial face of the plump Secretary of the Treasury wore an expres sion of the liortiot satisfaction. Snell Cobb i 4 [PRICE 4D. ►JTAMPED 5 BANQUET AT THE JUNIOR UNITED SERVICE CLVB. The members of the Junior United Servicr_. Club were honoured by the company of His Royal High ness the Duke of Cambridge at a splendid banquet last evening, at the inauguration of their palatial club-house in Charles-street, Waterloo-place. His Royal Highness, attended by Lieutenant-Colonel H. Clifton and Colonel Tyrwhitt, was received by the members of the club in the entrance hall, and was by them conducted to the drawing-room, where the majority of the guests had 'congregated. Dinner was announced precisely at eight o'clock. The banquet took place in the coffee-room of the establishment, and was served up in the Russian style in great splendour, the tables being adorned by a valuable collection of ornamental silver-plate, elaborately wrought silver candelabra, furnished and arranged by Mr. C. F. Hancock, of Bruton street, at a cost of 40,0001. In the various dan delabra and vases were the rarest natural flowers, imparting a brilliant effect to the banqueting hoard. - 5 - --- , . ----,-.'_....-----" • „.---, ,--• Q ,. __4 l ~'. . 4 - , ee..-,•` . ) , ' i - -!_" - - - ":":: _,.."

It is only just to add that the efforts of Lord and Lady Napier to promote ths: enjoyment of their guests ware actively seconded - by the cour teous attentions of the gentlemen of the Legation present, Mr. Russell and Mr. Manley. ; In trespas sing on your columns to such an inordinate length, for the record of this splendid fete, I have ventured to hope that you would deem the occasion worthy of such a mark, on your part, of courtesy and good will to the new British Minister, Lord Napier, of whose future career far more may be augured than has been the lot of any of his predecessors." a keen-witted and warm-hearted man, and enjoys fine society as much as he does the contest of poli tics or the dignities of office. He is nimble in con versation, and always on the qui vice for the calls of business or relaxation. He is, perhaps, the most popular man of the Cabinet, and Lord Na pier holds him in especial regard. His family is still in Georgia. Governor Floyd, the Secretary of War, arrived with military exactness among the earliest guests. He seems cut out to preside over the War-office, from his really martial appearance and martial air. It is difficult to believe that his vocation is the pen and not the sword. His charm ing wife accompanied him to this brilliant field of action, and her Revolutionary descent makes ample amends for the unmilitary origin of her spouse. "All must have noticed a tall man of pleasant, offhand manners, moving to and fro through the rooms with a searching, critical, disputatious coun tenance, as though its owner had an especial fond ness for Gordian knots. This was Judge Black, the Attorney-General, and one of the most awkward customers in a law argument any antagonist could meet with. His wife is a phenomenon, not of beauty only, but of extraordinary youth. Her daughter is grown up, and it is not easy to say which is the senior of the two. " A very unpretending, sedate, easy sort of a man is the Assistant Secretary of State, lion. John Appleton, who seemed vastly to enjoy the ball ; for serious people are often very fond of levities. His eye is remarkably bright and keen, indicating the clearness and sharpness of his mind, which is further shown in his precise language and distinct enunciation. He is an admirable adjunct to Gen. Cass, who is just the very reverse in his free-and easy ways to his exact, minute, and careful Assist ant Secretary. Mrs. Appleton is a sprightly and highly-cultivated person, admirably adapted for society, and it is no wonder therefore, that she eeemed_ quite at home_at the ball. Seated comfort ably on a sofa in aside roam we remarked a stout • man whose complacency seemed quite impregnable. His face and manner displayed a contented repose really enviable, yet his eye peeped out occasionally from its covert, and exhibited energy, will, and in tellect not unmixed with uncommon cuteness. This was the new Postmaster-General, Governor Brown. His wife, a handsome woman, of frank, unaffected bearing, and of a - cordial and kindly na ture, was promenading about with her eldest daughter by a former marriage, Miss Saunders. This young lady is destined for a rashington belle. Sprightly and graceful in manners, quick and pointed in repartee, a face beaming with intelli gence and sparkling with beauty, highly cultivated with every accomplishment, Miss Saunders cannot fail to shine in the salons of Washington. " In closing my notice of the functionaries of the Government I may not omit a glance at a pleasant jolly-looking person, who contemplated the scene aronnd him somewhat in the light of an inoffensive joke that had little interest for him of any kind. This was Mr. Clayton, Assistant-Se cretary of the Treasury, and one of the best busi ness men of this important department. The sto ries told of his detection of the smallest errors in financial statements are almost fabulous. His wife, the mother of a numerous progeny, was one of the youngest and prettiest women at the ball. It was observed with surprise that the Secretary of the Interior, Mr. Thompson, and his accomplished wife were not among Lord Napier's guests, which was much regretted by the noble host. It was rumoured that temporary indisposition had alone prevented the worthy secretary from joining in this festive gathering. The nephew of the President, and his private secretary, Mr. Buchanan Henry, attended the ball. This gentleman's pleasing address and conciliatory disposition have won him already , troops of friends, though occupying a post that ex poses him to cavil, and which requires the utmost good temper to meet all the exigencies attached to it. His position, however enviable in some re spects, is far from a sinecure, for such is the inde fatigable industry of the President that his luckless secretary is a prisoner in his office from eight a.m., generally, to four and five p.m. No wonder, after such taskwork as this, that he looked so happy at the ball. Among the general company there were many from distinction and talent abundantly en titled to a passing remark, but I have already ex ceeded your limits, and must rapidly pass by many I would fain stop to contemplate. That solemn, formal man, with so little pretension of manner as to remind one of a country parson, is perhaps, without exception, the moat learned and accom plished scholar in the country, the Hon. Edward Everett. What a contrast in bearing and vivacity is the sprightly lady near him, who converses with such incredible fluency and elegance upon all topics alike, whether serious or light—that is his daughter, Mrs. Lieutenant Wise. That neat, spruce-looking person, with such an intelligent face and brisk movement, is Mr. W. B. Reed, the new commissioner to China, and the lady he is talking to is unquestionably one of the most elegant persons present, and admitted to be la grande dame of Washington ; her massive black hair is exquisitely coiffe ; her faultless toilette, ease of manner, with a certain grace and pliancy of step, all indicate that she is of a Southern clime, while her intelligent remarks smack of Northern culture ; she is the wife of the Hon. J. Sliddell, of Louisiana, and a Creole by birth. Decidedly one of the best dressed and most captivating beauties of the ball room was the lovely daughter of Capt. Ingraham, so well known for his bold rescue of the Haugarian. Koszta. A Washington belle, Miss Markoe; showed in her fine bearing and bon ton unmistakeable signs of having inherited from an old stock these rare and attractive traits. One of the greatest favourites of Washington society, Mrs. Stout, $ daughter of Commodore Aullick, dispensed her gracious smiles and sparkling Alit with even more than her usual liberality. The Hon. R. Johnson and his imposing looking wife thought the occasion worthy of an un usual act of homage, and came down from Balti more in honour of the ball. Most persons re marked the smiling face and comfortable air of a stout, pleasant-looking man, w ho seemed well con tented with his lot in life, and would doubtless have wondered to hear there was such a thing as disappointment in the world, as lie had never met it. This was Mr. Corcoran, the naillionnaire, who, out of Government loans and attention to business, has amassed a princely fortune, with an only daughter, a charming girl, to inherit it. The mayor of Washington, Mr. Magruder, one of the best natured of men, though a vigilant and effective offi cer, was at the ball, with his young and pretty wife. Last on the list I must say a word of a per son whose presence in Lord Napier's house excited no little curiosity, which was all the more increased by the evident goodwill existing between the noble host and his well-known guest, the Chevalier Wikoff. One would have thought, after ail. the dire mishaps that have befallen the Chevalier at the hands of the Britishers, f ro m LOrd Palm erston down to the redoubted Consul Brown, that he would have recoiled in terror, if not in hostility, from another English diplomatist. But the Cheva lier, whatever his faults, has a mixture of philossa phy and good nature about him that makes an ad mirable cement, which will serve again, as before, to rebuild his fortunes. Consequently, instead of harbouring a puerile resentment against his old pa tron; Lord Palmerston, he cheerfully seized the first occasion to make his bow to his representative in Washington. Lord Napier, not in the least dismayed at this unexpected rencontre, inferred with that sagacity and tact characteristic of the man that the Chevalier's advances were well meant, and that on his own ground he was not a foe tobe despised. The best understanding has been the result, and I should not at all wonder if the Chevalier Wikoff should yet receive another invitation 'to dine and sleep' at Broadlands, or, even, snirabile dicta, that vindictive Consul Brown should politely 'ask him to step into St. Andrea o nce more, only for the de light of getting him out, which, however, Chevalier would not advise the ex - prison er to risk. The seemed quite at home at Lord Napier's ball, and many who had not s een him before were surprised, it is said, at his quiet demeanour and unaffected conversation. Among the incidents of the evening may be mentioned a quadrille, danced by the entire diplomatic corps, Lord Napier leading off with Countess Sartiges. A trait of good fellowship may be noticed en passant, though it escaped the at tention of the company. After supper most of the diplomatic corps, ladies and gentlemen, met at the buffet, as though preconcerted, and each, with a glass of champaigne in hand, drank to the other's health with a jovial-heartedness which showed that even in the diplomatic world good feeling is not always effaced by form and rival interests. I should not neglect to mention that more than once during the evening a sincere regret Was expressed at the absence of one "bright, particular star" whom a recent melancholy bereavement has com pelled to withdraw temporarily from society. I speak of Miss Lane, the beautiful and accomplished niece of the President. Her admirable taste and correct feelinc , were evinced by a well-timed com pliment in honour of the day by sending to Lor d and Lady Napier a pr o f us i on o f choice flo wers, who showed their n appreciation of thi s flatten g civility by grouping them in largo china vases a nd setting them, apart for the special admixati94 Among the groups which, it will be seen, chiefly apply to military subjects, were, " The Death of Lord Francis Villiers at the Battle of Kingston,' 'as described in -Olarendores " gistory of the Re bellion ;" the " Battle of the Standard, fought at Northallerton ;" "David, King of Scotland, res cuing his son, Prince Henry, from the troops of Stephen of England ;" old ballad, MSS., X.

Lord Panmure, the Secretary at - War, and the Right Hon. Sir C. Wood, the First Lord of the Admiralty, who had accepted invitations, were obliged, at the last moment, to crave excuse, being invited to join her Majesty's dinner circle at Buck ingham Palace. The Duke of Richmond was also unable to dine with the gallant company owing to slight indisposition. Covers were laid for 136 persons, the company dining including Lieut.-Gen. Sir G. A. Wetherall, K.C.8., Major-Gen. Sir W. F. Williams, K. C. 8., Major-Gen. Sir C. Yorke, K.C.8., Major-Gen. Sir Sir R. Airey, K.C. B.Sir H. Dalrymple, Lord G. Gordon Lennox, and ajor-General Dupuis. Dinner was served at eight o'clock. The usual loyal toasts were proposed and duly honoured. The CHAIRMAN next gave the toast of the even ing. The toast was most enthusiastically received. The Duke of CAMBRIDGE, on rising, was received with renewed applause. He commenced by expres sing his gratitude for the kind maner in which Sir J. Scarlett had introduced his health, and declared himself glad of the opportunity of personally thank ing his entertainers for the honour they had con ferred upon him by inviting him to be present at the inauguration of their magnificent club. Thanks to the gracious consideration of his Sovereign, and to the kind feeling manifested towards him by the country generally, he had been called upon to fill a position of high trustin the country. It was a proud • thing to be placed at the head of any army, but when that army was the British army, the honour was one of the highest that could be conferred on any man. And why ? Because the officers and men of the British army, on every occasion when called upon, had done honour to their country. (Cheers.) They lived in peculiar times, and it was not easy, filling the high office to which he had been called, to satisfy everybody. What he chiefly wished was that credit should be given him foe the desire to act justly and to perform his duties with fairness to all parties. (Hear, hear.) His gallant friend had been good enough to say that he had not thought it beneath him to study his profession in all its duties, regardless of the position in which. Providence had placed him. Now, he had no hesi tation in saying that it was his belief that that por tion of his education had brought him into the proud position which he now held. (Hear.) His great object, so long as he held the office of Com inander-iu-Chief, would be to make all young offi cers learn their profession thoroughly. It was his fixed determination to carry out his . principle ; and l tthe proper young i g entlemen a t e .' q i tu ns s t i e t i a o d n o o f wouldfki thec a licking i p nig giess t ion of their adoption, the British army bewoyuelndaver that y whichaeo it arr i ve iiad athi hitherto esrtattee at efficiency far t a ined. If to their acknowledged bravery the young officers of the British army would but add the study of the details of the service, there could be no toubt they would make the best officers in the world. The flattering reception which had been given him, he need scarcely say, would still further stimulate his exertions in the high office to which he Lad, been called ; and ho trusted there was not one present who'would ever doubt his h re t a n dy willingness claims he unghave upou his Highness was loudly - t . pr o cheered to fe u p ss p i o o o r n t n . a D y His resumingjust The health of the c hairman having been drun k Iv company separated. seat. t T ba Ul t lN a E f D ew TO ye P a ß rs Ul a T a l k ? , A a L ( A. 0 : 1 A N Duff , , kL IBI LI: ..
