feeling with respect to political affairs, and some hope is
entertained that at the Cabinet Council next Thursday
the future of the Ministry will be determined, as most
persons here would prefer to see them out at once,
rather than haggling to patch up a Government.

CHELSEA BENEVOLENT SOCIETY.—LESt evening a
dramatic entertainment took place at the Soho Theatre in aid
of the funds of this institution. The actors on the occasion
were the members of the Chelsea Histrionic Society, and the

the Dream at Sea, and Binks the Bagman. The performers
exerted themselves with sufficient energy and dramatic power
to insure the applause of the audience, and the result of the
undertaking seemed well calculated to advance the interests
of the iziatiV;tiou.
