NORWICH. FRIDAI

This morning ushered in the close of the
Festival, the musical proceedings of which were
brought to a termination by a performance
of the Messiah--Handers Christian oratorio in
contradistinction to his Jewish oratorio, /wad in
AM& Here again, as with the Caution, the
work is so universally familiar that it is unneces-
sary to say more than that the performance was a
fine one—marvellously so, considering the inces-
sant strain there has been on the performers since
the rehearsal on Monday. Mr. Sims Reeves
appeared this morning, and sang with much fer-
vour and pathos, if not with his customary energy
—indeed it has reen evident on the occasions when
he has sung that he did so from sheer anxiety to
fulfil his engagement in spite of the de-
ing effects of ill health, and with
reduced energies of voice and lungs. It is to be
hoped that his appearance at this last of
the performances will allay any irritation
that may have been felt at his absence
on other occasions. The other solo music in the
Messick was assigned to Mdlle. Tietjens, Mdlle.
Draadil, Mr. Santley, and Mr. Weiss. They who
only know Mdlle. Tietjens by her excellent per-
formances in declamatory stage music would
scarcely expect from her such refinement and
chistened purity of style, as she has evinced in
the sacred music which has been assigned to her
at this Festival ; and this was especially observa-
ble in this morning's performance of the Messiah.
Mdlle. Draadil, who confirmed to-day the good
impression which she has created by her previous
performances here, must assuredly soon be heard
more of, if a contralto voice of fine quality com-
bined with perfect intonation and fervent expres-
sion iu sacred music be in request. We need not
dwell on the singing of Mr. Santley and Mr. Weiss
in music which they have so frequently been
beard in.
Whatever the financial results of the festival—
and we trust they will be favourable—the musical
interest has been at least up to the average
of past meetings. The early Passion music
of Handel, and his grand oratorios,
Israel in Egypt and the Messiah ; Haydn's grace-
ful and always charming (though scarcely sublime)
Creation, Mr. Costa's florid and highly-wrought
IV adapt it, and Mr. Benedict's excellent new cantata,
Saint GeiTis (which we are disposed to consider
as his very best work), have been features in every
instance of high, in some cases of special and
peculiar, interest. The non-appearance,l excepting
on three occasions, of Mr. Sims Reeves, although
engaged for the whole festival, gave rise to some
disappointment and dissatisfaction. The first
feeling is readily intelligible, but the second is
manifestly unjust when the cause was so palpably
ill-health.
,Of the general excellence of the performances, of
the exertions of solo singers, band and chorus, it
ia- difficult to speak in too high terms of praise.
The fatigue of so many performances crowded into
such a narrow space of time has been so great, that
it is marvellous how the energies of voices and
fingers could be sustained. The exhausting effect
of the long and tiring rehearsal of Monday was
occasionally apparent in the performance of Israel
on the evening of that day, especially in some of
the choruses. But this wore off, and the choral
singing on the subsequent days was such as could
scarcely be improved on.
Mr. Benedict, the conductor of the festival, has
had, perhaps, the most exhausting office of any-
one connected with the event, but it must have
compensated him for all his anxiety and labour to
find his new work meet with such triumphant
success as attended its production at Norwich.
Solo singers, chorus, and orchestra (the latter
havinl the advantage of being led by our accom-
plished solo violinist, Mr. H. Blagrove) have
exerted their best powers throughout the Festival
in spite of the excessive demand on their energies
To the excellence of the general arrangements of
the Festival we have already alluded, and it only
remains to acknowledge the courtesy of those
gentlemen concerned therein with whom we have
been brought into personal communication.

THE ROYAL VISIT TO NORWICH.

NORWICH, Nov. 2.

The in.,vements of the royal visitors were so
rapid on Wednesday and yesterday, and the last available
afternoon train leaves Norwich at such an inconveniently
early hour, that in spite of every exertion some incidents
remained unavoidably unchronicled. His Royal Highness
the Duke of Edinburgh left Norwich yesterday afternoon.
attended by his equerry, Lieutenant Haig. His royal high-
ness was also attended to the railway station by the High
Sheriff (Mr. Tyasen Amhurst), and was loudly cheered by
a number of persons who assembled on the platform to
witness his departure. Before leaving Norwich. the
Princess of Wales was presented by a number of the ladies
of the city with an elegantly bound photographic album.
The presentation was made by the mayoress IMrs.
Nicholls), and the Princess received the gift with every
mark of satisfaction. The album is about eighteen
inches in length. The cover on one side bore
the Prince's coronet and monogram three inches
in diameter in solid gold, while the back was ornamented
with five fleurs de lys, and the massive gold clasp was
elaborately engraved. Both coven were ornamented on
the corners with turquoises set in gold surrounded with
engraved Prince of Wales's feathers. The case was covered
with blue velvet, ornamented with a gold coronet, the
Prince of Wales's feathers appearing on the corners. The
contents consisted of sexeral photographic views of Nor-
with Cathedral, the principal seats in Norfolk, and local
celebrities. Among the plates in the album were portraits
of the Earl and Countess of Leicester ; Norwich Grammar
School, with portraits of Lord Nelson and Rajah Sir James
Brooke ; St. Andrew's-hall as it was and as it is ; the prin-
cipal singers at the musical festival; the late PrineeConsort,
surrounded by a water colour representation of gathered
corn ; l'osteasy as it' Costessy as it will be, dc. The
ball at Costessy,of which some details were given yesterday,
was attended by about 300 ladies and gentlemen. The
names of many of the leading guests have been already
given, but the following were omitted in the hurry
attendant on the despatch of yesterday's panel:—The
Earl and Countess of Stradbroke, the Dowager Countess
of Albemarle' Lord Hastings, the Sheriff of Norwich and
Mrs. Cubitt, the Hon. T. de Grey, M.P.. Mr. W. Begge,
M,P., and Mu. Bagge, Mr. C. S. Read. 51.1'., and Mrs.
Read, Sir George and Lady Nugent. Lady Gladstone and
the Misses Gladstone, Mr. and Lady Rose Weighall, Sir
W. and Lady Jones, Lady Charlotte Schrieber, Mr. and
Lady Jane Leven. Sir S. Bignold and Miss Bignold,
Colonel and Mrs. Fitzroy. Colonel and Mrs. Blomfield,
Colonel Rous, the Hon. Mr. and Mrs. Deleval Astley, x.c.
All the principal county familieswere in short represented.
The illuminations in Norwich were partially resumed last
evening. A fountain has been erected in front of the
Shire Hall, the water of which by the burning of varied
coloured lights on a raised platform will have, it is ex-
pecte 1, a beautiful effect. The fountain is to play this
evening,. There will also be a brilliant display of firework'
this evtning on the Castle meadow.

EGYPTIAN-EALL.-MT. Artemus Ward, the Ame-
rican hutnourist, whose writings in Punek and other jour-
nals are now becoming even more familiar to
the London public than the little books issued
by Mr. Ward in America and England, will commence his
" illustrated Narrative of Life amongst the Mormons" at
the Egyptian-hall on Monday, Nov. 12. Mr. Ward has
taken the room lately occupied by Mr. Arthur Sketchley,
and will be the second successor of Mr. Albert Smith.
WORKING MEN'SLORD'S DAY REST ASSOCIATION.
—On Thursday evening last a crowded meeting of the
:Southwark br.inch was held at the School-room, Lent-
unmet, Borough. Dr. liogh Allen occupied the chair.
Mt. Salmon moved, and Mr. Charles Hill seconded,
" That this meeting, having heard an explanation of the
object and principles of the Southwark branch of the
Working Meu's Lord's Day Rest Association, pledges
itself to support the same.' Mr. George M. Murphy '
moved, and Mr. Williamson seconded, That this meeting
resolves to do all in its power to liberate hairdressers and
all other shopkeeperdrom Sunday toil ; and calls upon Sun-
day buyers to make their purchases on Friday or Saturday,
Wet- ad of on Sunday." Rev. W. Curling moved, and Dr.
Spence seconded, -, That every man has a right to, and
need of, the di,y of rein, of which he ought not to be de-
prived. except to perform works of necessity ; and that, in
the opinion of this meeting, the opening of museums,
ne., on Sundays is totally unnecessary—would inflict a
wrong on the staff of attendants, pioneer the way for the
Sunday opening of every exhibition, gallery, theatre, and
other place of iunuseineht throughout the empire, and
give a sanction and impetus to Sunday labour in many
dipartments of trade, to the great injury of the working
claws." The above resolutions were carried tun uli-
Zsly. and a memorial to the Earl of Derby was
ted praying that large halls, capable of holding from
3 to 4,000 persons, may be erected by government in
different quarters of London, where the people could
meet free of charge to express their opinions on the social
aid political questions of the day.

EQUITY COURTS.—Noy. 2.
(Before the Lord Chancellor.)

This being the first day of the term, the courts were
opened with the usual formalities. The Lord Chancellor
was warmly received on his appearance in the procession
through Westminster-hall, and Sir Hugh Cairns obtained
a complete ovation.
Mr. Holt took his seat within the bar upon his appoint-
ment as Attorney-General.
The following gentlemen, having been appointed Queen's
Counsel, also took their seats within the bar :—Mr. Maple,
Mr. Bowler. Mr. Prentice, Mr. Jones. Mr. C. Pollock, Mr.
Mundell, Mr. Garth, Sir George Honyman, and Mr.

IN THE MATTER OP CHARLE4 maim, ALIAS COPPIN.
This was an application with respect to a return to
• writ of habeas corpus granted by the Lord Chancellor at
his private residence during the long vacation, direct-
ing the body of Charles Dubois, alias Coppin, to be
brought up.
The question arose under the Extradition Treaty be-
tween France and England, and involved a point of con-
siderable importance.
The case was not concluded when the court rose ; we
therefore reserve our report,
The Attorney-Gener4 the Solicitor-General, and Yr.
Hannan appeared for the Home-office ; Mr. Edward Jones
appeared for the prisoner.

(Before the Master of the Rolls.)
HARMAN '•. THE GREAT EA`TERN RAILWAY COMPANY.
Mr. Selwyn, Q.C., and Mr. Crouch appeared in this
Me in support of a motion for an order directing the
defendants to pay into court a sum of 2,0601., being the
purchase money of certain premises taken by them for the
purposes of their railway. The purchase ought to have
been completed by the 13th December, 180, but it was
stated that through the conduct of the defendants it had
not been so completed.
Mr. Baggallay, Q.C., appeared for the company.
Lord Romilly made an order directing the money to be
paid into court by the 2nd day of January nest.

(Before Vice-Chancellor Sir It. T. Hindersley.)
RE OTEREND, GURNEY, AND CO.

the call.
EIMER EQIITABLE A9SCRANCE COMPANY V. THE VALE OP
MEATH RAILWAT COMPANY.
Mr. Shebeer appeared, with Mr. Glass, upon a renewed
motion to stay proceedings at law.
Mr. Ince, who represented an administratrix, stated that
during the vacation an act of parliament had passed for
the amalgamation of the Vale of Meath Railway with the
Great Western Railway, and that the act contained the
usual clause that all suits should be carried on against the
Great Western Company.
The matter was ordered to stand over till the next seal.

(Before Vice-Chancellor Sir J. Stuart.)

,
The Vice-Chancellor mine into court shortly before two
o'clock, and rose at about half•past two, having disposed of
several applications, none of which, however, were of au
interest.

atteched, and whisk give no privilege, we believe, beyond
that of precedence m being heard under certain circum-
stances.
The next event was the milling within the bar of the
following gentlemen who hid attained to the dignity of
Queen's counsel :—Mr. Mania, Mr. Dickenson, Mr. Bowler,
Mr. Prentice, Mr. T. Jones, Mr. C. Pollock, Mr. Mundell,
Mr. Garth, Sir Geo. Honyman, and Mr. Quain.

JOIIIII o. PACS.
This case was tried at the last assizes for the county of
Worcester before Mr. Justice Shea, when a verdict was
entered by consent for the plaintiff for 1001.
Mr. Henry James, in pursuance of leave reserved by the
learned judge, moved for a rule to enter • nonsuit. The
plaintiff relied on a contract set out in the declaration, by
which he alleged that defendant undertook to supply him
with an omnibus which was reasonably fit for the convey-
ance of passengers. The plaintiff, a publican in Bir-
mingham, being &dram to arrange for an excursion to
Warwick races, went to the defendant, who let out horses
and carriages for hire, to procure an omnibus for the
purpose, and having seen and inspected the vehicle
in question be selected it for the trip. On the
return journey one of the wheels gave way, but from no
patent defect, and several of the peasengers were thrown
off and seriously injured. These persons subsequently
brought options against the plaintiff for damages. Upon
these facts the question raised, which was entirely one of
law, was whether there was an implied warranty on the
part of the defendant, that the omnibus was fit for the
purpose for which it was to be employed.
Lord Chief Baron Kelly—What was the exact nature of
the defect!
Mr. James—A portion of the wheel proved to be rotten,
but this defect did not appear on the face of it.
Lord Chief Baron Kelly—lt seems that the whole point
is raised by. the evidence, and that there was no question
left to the jury. Take a rule.
Rule nil.
