amputation there were from 10,000 to 12,000 persona in the
Eibibition building to-day, and the building, at the mo-
ment when the Trims of Wiles arrived, promoted a maga'.
boost appeannes from the genet; above the dais, irldah
was probably the beet point of view. The Orand Hall op-
posite was filled to its extreme sod, with a gaily-dressed
crowd, and the eye was can led over the donee mass up to
the roof by the occupants of the orchestra. The brilliance
of the military unifoi me, not in a group, but sprinkled
thickly throughout the throng ; the varied effect of the
official costume', from the staid garb of judges to the heral-
dic apparel of ' Ulster ; the elmost romantic touch given
to the pioture by the dispersion of the Highland officers and
men at different portions of the building as the guard of
honour, combined to produce a magnificent result. The
chain's' were given in the best manner, and the pro-
medley within the Ftbibitiou mend off ii:th perfect

✓andy toilets worn by some of the ladies of the demi-monde

THE HOUSE OF LORDS AND THE EDMUNDS PEN.
mos.—The Pension Committee may be content with the
assurance by the members of the Edmond. Committee that
they did not intend to wan, thy tenure upon them by
the reratint. 7.a have quoted from their report, but last
night's &Amte tended mach to confirm previous suspicions
OM this committee which gave Hr. Edmunds his pension
had a knowledge—snefficial, indeed, but still sugicioatl7
socuntw—al what had bean gain on. It is his belief in this
knowledge which is the beet palliation of the Lord Clair
aelloes viaduct. He may also say that there could be
so deception where nobody was deceived. The Nodal
Committee, and, indeed, every section of the hone itself,
must shah,each in its respective degree, the Imputation of
"error of judgment " and undue leniency. The committee
keen that there was something wrong, the government knew
it, the leading men of the opposition keno it, and, though
Lead Harderiake can nonsfully vindicate his " •

lordelips were aware that their illustriousbody was about
to persica a defaulter. No doubt they did not know how
lad his can was, bow condoned sad extensive had been

their mercy ; but they were disposed not to be " hard" as

of the house far 17 yews, and wave too careless to inquire
into the enormity his guilt. The bent that can be said for
the Lord Chevalier
