THE DUKE OF WELLINGTON'S BALL AT APSLEY
Hovsa.—The Duke of Wellington gave one of the most
magnificent balls ever witnessed within the walls of Apaley
House on Friday night. The Duke had not given a ball at
his mansion in Piccadilly for the last seven years. It was
understood to have been given as one of the fete.s incidental
to the Great Industrial Exposition. Above 1,600 invita-
tions were issued, and upwards of 1,200 persons enjoyed
his grace's hospitality. As early as 9 o'clock the gorgeous
gallery and communicating saloons were prepared for the
reception, and soon after that hour carriages began to
set down, and continued without intermission till nearly 2
o'clock, the elite of the company at Devonshire House coming
to the ball after the amateur performance had concluded there.
The Duke of Wellington, who honoured the performances
at tho Duke of Devonshire's by his presence, returned to
Apsley House to do the honours to his own guests, in which
he was assisted by the Marchioness of Douro and Lady
Charles Wellesley. In the splendid gallery, which was
appropriated for dancing, Cootes's full band occupied the
orchestra, and although the superb furniture had been re-
moved, from the rich decorations, flowers, and myriads of
lights, the room, when the majority of the guests had met,
presented a most brilliant spectacle. The withdrawing-
room was the place of reception, and many lingered there to
obtain • glance at the portraits of the gallant com-
panions of the great captain with which the walls are hung.
The south drawing room was devoted to refreshments. By
means of en anteroom, in which are portraits of the Na-
poleon family, easy access was obtained to the ball-room.
The grand dining room, containing the portraits of the late
Emperors of Russia and Austria, the Kings of Prussia, the
Netherlands, Louis XVIII. of France, de., was set apart
for dancing, which commenced at half-peat 10, the Duke
taking as his partner the Lady Clementine Villiers. Among
the distinguished foreigners present were the Prince of
Prussia, Prince Henry of the Netherlands, Prince Edward
of Saxe Weimar. The entertainment was continued till 6;
the duke remaining until the departure of the last guest.
" PENNY READING ROOMS" have, within the last
few days, been opened in Cheapside. They present • sup-
ply of newspapers, including the London daily journals, the
leading Parisian and German, as well as the English,
Scotch, and Irish provincial newspapers. This extensive
selection the visitor is entitled to peruse on payment of the
very trifling charge of one penny.
THE REPRESENTATION OF CAMBRIDGESHIRL—For
some time past it has been in contemplation in this county,
as may have been seen by the reports of various meetings, to
oust Mr. Townley from the representation, his crime being
that having voted for protection, he afterwards voted in
favour of the present government. The movement against
Mr. Townley, however, is entirely confined to the yeo-
manry, the parties who usually manage these matters
standing aloof. It should be mentioned, too, that the
names of Mr. Serjeant Byles, Mr. Jonas, Mr. Ball, Mr.
Hicks (Wilbraham), with one or two others, have been under
consideration before Mr. Young was fixed upon, and to two
or three of these gentlemen the seat was actually offered. On
Saturday a meeting was holden at the Corn Exchange,
Cambridge, to present a requisition to Mr. G. F. Young.
The actual number of signatures was not stated, but it was
and that there were more than anastaal majority, of the vo-
ters on the register. There was a banquet at the Red Lion at
the conclusion of the proassdliaga.ns which about 160 sat
down, Mr. S. Quintin occupying die *air.
