HEAL and SON have observed for some time
that It would be adventsaeoas to their Customers to see
a much larger selection of Bed-room Emelt-are than is usually
displayed, and that to Judge properly of the style and effect of
the dWeresit descriptions of Furniture, it Is aeomeary that each
descriptioa should be placed in separate roman They have,
therefore, ERECTED Large and Additional SHOW-R1b031.4. by
which they are enabled not only to extend their show of Iron,
Braga, and Wood Bedsteads, and Bed-room Furniture, beyond
what they believe has ever been attempted, but also to provide
several small rooms for the purpose of keeping complete suites
of Bed-remat Furniture In the different style.
Japanned Deal Goods may be seen in complete suites of dye or
sir different colours, some of them light and ornamental, and
others of &plainer description Suites of Stained Deal Gothic
Furniture, Polished Deal, Oak, and Walnut, are also set apart in
separate rooms, so that customers are at le to see the effect as it
would appear in their own rooms.
The stock of Mahogany Goods for the better Bedrooms, and
lapaaned Goads for Plain and Sensate' use, Is very greatly In-
creased, the whole forming as complete an assortment of Bed-

TEE NAThIAL RIFLE ASSOCIATION AT
WLMBLEDON.
TUE ciATELBB.INGB IN CAMP.
trilbies OVIICIAL 0011122IPO3DINT.

At one time last night there were three distinct
assemblages, each of which seemed as large as those
of any preceding evening. There was the camp-fire
proper ; there was a large meeting of the London
Scottish and their friends, who sang national songs,
performed national dances, played national tune',
and dispensed punch round a tent temporarily
occupied by Lord and Lady Nacho ; and there was
the large convivial party improvised by the City of
London Brigade to celebrate the Queen's prize
having bean won by a member of their corps. The
novelty of the two last-named meetings, the pro-
minence of the coloured Chinese and plain ships'
lanthorns, which were festooned from flag-staffs to
denote their wheceabouts • and the animated
strains of their two military bands soon proved
superior to the attractions of the fire. The hollow
containing it continued, however, to be moderately
well filled, until an announcement was made that
the meeting would be transferred to the other part
of the camp for that evening, and that the fire
would be relit with the usual honours on Thursday
(to-morrow) evening. The visitors then divided
themselves between the Scottish and City tents,
the Highland fling dancing at the former giving no
small amusement to the crowd, which included,
as heretofore, clergymen, peers, and fashionable
ladies in its ranks. We regretted to hear that the wild
cries and shrieks of the performers, the wield
energy wherewith they tossed their heads
and clapped their hands, as kilts and plaids
fluttered in the dizoly.lightea spa, suggested to
an ill-informed and uninitiated Southron in our
rear, "the savage war dances of the ancient Britons
before even C 8311825 camp had been pitched upon
Wimbledon-common." It should be mentioned
that one Highland gentleman favoured us
with a solo dance of marked excellence,
wherein, like Mr. Fezziwig in the "Christmas
Carol," "he cut! actually cut, so deftly
that he seemed to wink with his legs," and
that Lord Elcho and his friends entered into and
participated both in the dancing and the shrieks,
with as much zest as if "owl-shooting " were not
going on within ear-shot, awl as if the cares of coun-
cil were unknown. To-night the Moray Minstrels
give their second amateur concert in the circular
tent, to which it has been determined, wisely or
unwisely, to exact an admission fee of half a
crown.

SALARIES OF THE CUSTOMS OFFICERS.

Mr. C. TURNER esker' the Secretary to the Treasury
whether it was the intention of the government to take into
consideration the various petitions presented to the house
by the Customs employ:•s, with a view to the removal of
the grievances complained of, by assimilating the pay and
clemilication of the Customs to the pay and demiScation of
the Inland Revenue and other similar departments of the
public service.
Mr. PEEL, is reply. begged to observe that there was no
standard of pay and classification of the public services
which could be applied to all the departments indiserimi.
nately, without reference to the nature and responsibility of
the duties to be performed. The practice was to grant to
each dies a somber of clerks and rates of pay which were
considered adequate to obtain an efticiect body of
sermals. Ile thought it far better that each
*dice should have the salaries of the clerks it
required fired with reference to its own particular
requirements, rather than with refereace to the practice of
say other department. During the last year the officers of
the customs department had memarialied the Treasury foe
as improvement of their condition ; and whilst io some
instances the Lords of the Treasury had not sees their way
to comply with their application, in other mess they had
not only added to their emoluments, but accelerated their
promotios, and he hoped they bad very considerably 'melio-
rated their position.

Mr. PEEL said that any disposition of treasure trove
nude by the Secretary to the Treasury was toads by him,
according to directions given to him by the Lads of the
Treasury, who must be considered to represent bar Majesty
in that matter. It was good policy on the part of the
government to be liberal to the finders of treasure trove,

?*ot!!!zer.us,

This Company is established for the purpose of purchasing the
property and continuing the business et the well-known Oxford
and Canterbury Music Halls, so stmosatully conducted by
She present Proprietor, Mr. Charles Morten, for several years
put.
The Directors, in bringing the present Company before the
public, are not Inviting subscriptions to an unknown or untried
venture, but to en established and highly remunerative under-
taking, end one which, with the additional means at the com-
mand of a Joint-Ateek Company, may be made still more so.
An agmement has been entered into for the purchase of the
whole of Mr. Norton's interest in these properties, together
with the goodwill of the hominess and the Mack In trade, on
highly to
termsadvantageous the Company, and In order to show
his coed, ence in its future success, he has subscribed for one-
fourth of the entire capital, and will continue for some years
the manager.
It is the intention of the Company to increase the hotel ac-
commodation, which hes hitherto been found inadequate, and
thou materially add to the present bun* returns. There la also
an excellent private wine trade attached to both establishments,
which is capable of considerable extension.
It Is Impossible to show, with certainty, by any MAHAR.., the
returns which may be expected from the present undertaking.
but the certified accounts for the last three years show an annual
profit of upwards of tO per cent upon the whole amount of
capital which it is contemplated eventually I. call up.
The present average attendance at the Otforu sod Canterbury
Music Halls Is about 60,000 a month, and the proposed extemsi.al
of business will doubtless render the profits of the undertaking
still more remunerative than tier.

One•italf of the capital has been already applied for, and
applications for the ri main. ler should be made to the bankers
of the Company, accompanied by a deposit of Si per share ; it
no allotment be made, the deposit will he returned.

DEATH or A THAITOIL—We read in the Lae-

just died at St. Domingo of a stroke of apoplexy. Entrusted
latterly with a command against his former adasinistri4
now is revolt against Spain, be employed the troops under
his orders for the protection of his private property. This
conduct and other rather suspicious acts led quite recently
to his dismissal by the leader of the expedition, with orders
to proceed to Havannah as soon es possible. It was after
receiving this order that his death occurred. It is feared in
the Spanish camp that these events will result in impelling
the district, of Seyho and Iligney, over which General
Sestina exercised very great personal influence, to join the
party of the insurrection."

A letter from Rome says :—" The environs of
Albano are enchanting, and they are not rendered the lees
so by the occasional unexpected appearance of the young
Queen of Naples at some picturesque turn in an Ilex avenue,
seated gracefully on her beautiful grey thoroughbred, and
wearing an admirably fitting grey habit, a remarkably
spicy pork-pie hat, and her glossy hair in a Spanish net de-
scending to an audacious length down her slim back. The
King drives about alone a good deal in a low one-horse car-
riage, but his uncle, the Count of Trapani, has his lofty
phaeton generally full of ladies."

The French Polish Society of Paris has issued •
aotioe stating that comber, of refugees are emotionally

means of existence, and that a committee has been formed
for the purpose of finding them employment. A second
committee of French and Polish ladies has also been
organised for assisting the wounded. The society appeals
to the public for aid in the carrying out of those two works
of beoevolitece.
