the badges knighthood, and other costly baubles of
nobility, lie n unaccustomed profusion at the com-
mand of the E?rl of DERBY in his capacity as the
First Minister of the Crown—insomuch, indeed, that
at the preset moment there are no less than two
Garters at th disposal of the PREMIER. Everything
considered, tie responsibilities devolving upon the
Noble Earl n this remarkable emergency raunt be
viewed as immeasurably more than counterbalanced
by the opporunities which those very responsibilities
in reference o the distribution of honours, dignities,
emoluments,and prerogatives necessitate of extending
the influence of his Cabinet and of consolidating the
energies of its Administration.

THEATRE ROYAL, PLYMOUTH.
Mr. T. C.King has been performing at Plymouth
with great slccess. Last week he appeared in the
principal ras in Richard the Third and Virginias.
The other chiracters were very well supported. In
a melodramatic spectacle, Wallace the Hero of Scot
land, and in Katherine and Petruchio, Mr. King,
M►ss Page, and Miss Fanny Huddart sustained the
chief parts. Prenez Garde, a ballet pantomime by
Mr. Le Clercq, was very prettily got up, and afforded
an opportuoity for the talented Le Clercq family to
exhibit some of their best dancing. The exceeding
brilliancy acid finish of Miss Louise Le Clercq's per-
formance excited great admiration. If this accom-
plished young lady were to appear at one of the prin-
cipal metropolitan theatres she would at once assume
a first-rate position in ballet, and become one of the
most popular danseuses on the English stage.

VRS. PARKE'S CABINETS AND
PAINTINGS.
We were favoured, on Saturday, with a private
view of this teßteful and valuable collection, which
Mrs.
subscribers a r k e
on
itsletdo) announces for distribution among her
n the 18th of November next. Some of
the allotments (to one of which each guinea subscriber
i
are very valuable, among which the first
enti
'ne given to Johnston's noble painting of
" The Intrtduction of Flora Macdonald to Prince
Charles Edward, after the Battle of Culloden." The
value of this much admired picture is five hundred
guineas, an several beautiful engravings of it are
ranks
among the allotments. There are also M'lnnes's
" Visiting the Bothie," furnishing excellent portraits
of the Royal Family; and "Highland Courtship," by
the first-named artist. Among the many engravings,
the most exquisite is, in our opinion, that of "Jesse
Bourn and Colin Grey," the subject taken from
Crabbe's thirteenth tale, by Mrs. Southgate, of which
one thousand impressions will be placed in the scheme
of 7,000 allotments. There are also cabinets richly
carved and decorated, and furnished with a hand-
somely-bound collection of volumes; and engravings and
prints without end. The scheme well deserves pa-
tronage, and we feel confident that Mrs. Parkes will
not fail to obtain it. We recommend our readers to
judge for themselves by a visit to her establishment
in Golden-square.
