DEATH OF THE BISHOP OF PETRiimiItoUGIL-'
The Bishop of Peterborough died yesterday after'
noon, between 3 and 4 o'clock, at the Palace, Peterborough'
The last hours of the venerable prelate were peaceful in tll
extreme. He was wracked by no violent pains, but die'
quietly and almost with a struggle. Though the illness
which proved fatal to the bishop was somewhat sudden, h;
great ago, 84, and his increasing infirmities, had prepare
the public mind for his decease. George Davys, Bishop f
Peterborough, graduated Christ's College, Cambridge,
10th wrangler,and became a fellow. He subsequ, ntly beoaw"
curate of Littlebury; iu 181-1 of Chesterfield; this latter cured
he held until Dr. Bromfield, the late Bishfp of London'
was presented to that living, when Mr. Davys Wax°
curate of Swaffhant Prior; he afterwards removed to
sington, and was appointed tutor to the Princess Victoria'
Ha was advanced to the sea of Peterborough in 1659'
In theology the deceased prelate belonged to the evil'
gelical section of the Church. Ho took no part, hoc'
ever, in theological controversy, and was liberal towards
all religious creeds. Of late years hie lordship sel-
dom occupied his seat in the House of Lords ; and in
fact, his ambition ttirough life was rather to be good than
great. In the affectionate regard of his former pupil, our
present gracious Queen, the Bishop of Peterborough hold
a high place. For many years portraits of the royal family
were annually sent to the bishop, and costly tokens of her
Majesty's grateful affection were frequently bestowed upon
him. Throughout his aiocese his late bishop was universally
loved and respected, and his loss will be deeply regretted.
THE PRINCESS'S THEATRE.

DONNA DIANA.
Mr. Westland Marston's admirable play, st Done!
Diana," has again taken its place in the bills of 01°
theatre, the non•appearance of which, even for the
short time that has elapsed since its ,
per-
formance, we cannot but look upon as a managerial
mistake. Amidst the universal approbation of the
press and the public this play was suddenly vvltb•
drawn from representation; but whatever reason
may have led to that step, Re can only say we re-
gretted its occurrence, and have now to expreog
our gratification at its reproduction—not its " re.
vival." The parts of Donna Diana and Don CV°
were again sustained by Mr. and Mrs. Herman°
Vezin, and it is only necessary to say that both
these accomplished artistes embodied their rupee'
tive characters in a manner that left nothing to be •
desired, and which gave the utmost gratification re
the audience. Mr. George Vining also sustained
his original part of Perin in his best style, and 11O°
Rebecca Powell resumed her part of the bewitching
little waiting woman on the imperious Donne
Diana. At the fait of the curtain the applause 'ivitS
immense, and in compliance with the unaniu3oo
call of the house, it was again raised, in order Wit
the principal performers might publicly ack[lols'
ledge the applause their exertions had elicited'
The house was very fully and fashionably attended'

CITY, TWELVE 0' CLOCK.
The bullion operations at the Bank yesterday
ontarrised an influx of £lO,OOO in bar gold, and the
Withdrawal of 73,000 sovereigns for Alexandria.
During the last few days there has been very
little animation in the Foreign and Colonial Pro-
duce Markets. Sugar, however, has fully main-
tained previous prices. Coffee, on the other hand,
has Slightly declined, while full rates have been
Obtained for tea, coffee, and cocoa. In rice, fruit,
and saltpetre, the dealings have been too limited to
Materially affect quotations, while business in the
tallow market has been dull, and prices for both
Present and forward delivery have shown a down-
Ward tendency.
At the general meetingof the Bank of Queensland,
held to-day, the directors proposed that a dividend
of 7s. 6d• per share free of income tax be declared.
The prospectus of the Independent Fire Insurance
Company (Limited) is issued to-day, with a pro.
llcsed capital of one million sterling, in 40,000
Shares of £25 each ; £1 per share to be paid on
application, and L 1 10s. per share on allotment;
the
.calls, not exceeding per share, to be made
at Intervals of not less than three months. The
tames of the gentlemen forming the board of direc-
tors will be recognised, and inspire confidence in
the project, and the more so as it is announced that
the names of several influential gentlemen of Liver-
Pool and Manchester will be added to the direction at
134ce. The ieompany point out the safe and remunera-
tive nature of fire insurance business, and the certain
Impetus which will be given to it now that it is in
the
contemplation of Government to give a partial
remission of duty only to the insurance of stock in
trade. The directors of this company propose to
al!ow upon payment for every policy, and after-
Wards at each renewal, an immediate drawback,
Which, in many instances, will amount to a total
extinction of the entire duty. The increased value
Of the shares of offices established during the past
20 years ranges from 80 to 209 per cent., and hence
they are of opinion that, added to the favourable
°PPortunity which now presents itself, there is a
vast field for the operations of such a company, and
that the result will be of the most satisfactory na-
ture to the public and to all interested in the pro-
ieet in a pecuniary point of view.
