THE NoRWIGII MUaICaL .FESTIVAL.—NoItWICII,
SAvi:ituat Evt:NlNG.—The concert receipts of what must
now be termed the late festival were 4,6791., or within a
few shillings of the amount taken in ISO, and they were
only exceeded in 'WA 11127, and 11124. At the atm time
it is rather disheartening that the continuous progress
which had been observed at the last three festivals has
sustained a check. The ball receipts, the amom.t derived
from the sale of books of the words, soil other accessory
sources of income, have still to be taken into account ;
but as the presence of the Prince and Prineess of Wales,
the Queen of Denmark, and the Duke of Edinburgh has in-
volved the committee in some additional expenses, it is
doubtful whether the net proceeds will amount to 1,0001.
In Ist)3 they were 1,2211. No definite information can
however, be given on this heal, as a final adjustment of
accounts will not take place until the close of the
year. The ball with which the festival was
brought to a close last evening was a brilliant and
successful entertainment. The orchestra was covered with
crimson cloth, and funiinhed with iimid%oine chairs and
settees. At the back, and at both sides, were arranged
shrubs in vases and exotic plants. A suite of rooms
which hadbeen fitted up fur the reception r,l the royal stran-
gem were again made available, while at various points
of the hall there were some setters and chairs covered with
crimson velvet. Near the west door there was a fine
mirror which reflected all the company in the halL The
orchestra for the hand was erected oti the south side and
was adorned with heraldic devices, among which were the
anus of England and Denmark. An elegant supper was
served in a commodious apartment used for educational
purposes by the Commercial Branch of the Norwich
Grammar School, and immediately adjoining the hall. The
band in attendance was that of Mr. \V. Howlett, of Nor-
wich. The ball was opened hy the Earl of Leicester and Lady
Stafford. The company present comprised the Earl and
Countess of Leicester, Lord and Lady Stafford, Lord and
Lady Suffield, the Earl and Countess of Mar, Viscount
Ranelagh, Lord and Lady Rondo., Lord Augustus and
Lady Hervey, Viscount Duncan, Viscount Nee ry, the Earl
of Orford, Sir W. Russell, Bart., M.l'. ; Sir Henry and
Lady Durrant, Sir Thomas and the Misses Gladstone,
General Shirley, the High Sheriff of Norfolk and Mrs. Am-
burst, Sir K H. K. lawn, Bart., M.P., and Lady Lacon,
Admiral Wodebouse, the Mayor of Norwich and Miss
Nichols the Sheriff of Norwich, Mrs. and Miss Cubitt,
Mr. C. S. Read. M.P., and Mrs. Read, Colonel Black,
Colonel and Mrs. Fitzroy, Mr. and Lady Chsrlotte
Schreiber, Mr. and Lady Jane Levett, Mr. and Mrs. F.
Boileau, Captain Cater, R.N., Colonel Morant, Captain
Jerningharn,Dancing continued till about half-
Fast four this morning. The ball was attended by about
MO ladies and gentlemen, and worthily closed the Nor-
wich festival of
