DEATH OF MISS ANNIE ROZtIER.
We announce with sincere regret the very sudden and
untimely death of a young dramatic artist and vocalist—
one of the members of a family celebrated for their
musical talents—and who has been for some years back
a rising public favourite both in London and in the pro-
vinces—Miss Annie Romer. The lamented young lady
in question was a pupil of the Royal Academy of Music,
and gave early and unmistakeable signs of future emi-
nence. Her voice was a pure and fresh soprano of
large compass and finely sympathetic powers, and an
early appearance upon the stage showed that Miss A.
Romer possessed dramatic talents of a decided cha-
racter. During an engagement at the Princess's Tneatre,
in Mr. Maddox's operatic management, Miss A. Romer
made a very favourable and prominent impression,
the sweet and pure qualities of her voice and the simple
naivete of her style being equally noticeable. Her dra-
matic talents attracting the attention of Mr. Macready,
she more than once sustained the female parts at per-
formances at the country residence of Sir Bulwer Lyt-
ton, and when the amateur performances were got up
for the Shakspere-house Fund, Miss A. Romer filled
the principal female character. Upon Mr. Webster
getting together his present operatic company, she was
a member, but afterwards accepted a more prominent
engagement at the Surrey during its recent successful
musical campaign, where ono of her last characters was
that of the Princess in The Huguenots. Miss Annie
!touter—we have retained her stage appellation—had
beenrou married not above a twelvemonth to Mr. William
gh, the elder of the brothers whose exceedingly
c-9
known.urleEques have rendered their names so wet!

HOUSE OF COMMONS.
The doors of the New House of Commons was thrown
open soon after twelve o'clock, the
entrance being
through Westminster Hall; but until the hour ap-
proached for the arrival of her Majesty, there was not
a very full attendance of m
—embers. During the
recess the interior of the House has •
as been wonderfully
improved. The prevailing colour of the fittings is dark
green, relieved with gold ornaments; while the ventila-
tion is obtained by means of low stained glass windows;
but at night the House is lighted with eight massive
chandeliers in bronze, suspended from the ceiling by a
thick crimson rope. It should be observed also that the
colour of the two boxes at the end of the table, which
some Hon. Members are so fond of rapping in the heat
of debate, has also been changed from red
to green.
The roof is low and heavy, and upon
first entering,
the chamber has an excessively sombre aspect,
but this
feeling gradually subsides as the eye becomes familiarised
to the place. Nevertheless there is a great deficiency
of light in the day time, and if something eould be done
to remedy this defect the house would be as 'comfort-
able as it is handsome. The Reporter's Gallery, and
the retiring apartments attached to it are fitted up in
the same elaborate style; and we are bound to say, that
the convenience of the Reporters has bean "at

Amongst the earliest members in atten
Mr. Br dance, we
noticed Sir R. H. Inglis, Sir David D

Sibthorp, Mr. Hume, Mr. Spooner, and Mr.
Roebuck.
The form of balloting for positions in the Speaker's
train, on his progress to the House of
Peers, as
adopted towards the close of last Session, was
acted upon to-day, and each Member as he entered the
House, advanced to the table, wrote his name on a slip
of paper, and placed it in the ballot-box in front of the
senior clerk, Sir Denis Le Marchant.
The Speaker, attired in his State robes and attended
by the Sergeant-at-Arms, Lord Charles Russell, entered
the House at half-past one o'clock, and immediately
afterwards prayers were read by the Speaker's chaplain.
At this time the House on both sides was tolerably
well filled, and the table being much crowded, many
Hon. Members had a scramble to get their names into the
ballot-box. Mr. Hayter, the Ministerial ~whipper-in,"
made his appearance upon the floor about e! quarter to two,
and was for some time occupied seemingly in welcoming his
supporters upon returning to their Parliamentary duties.
Major Beresfurd, who is supposed to stand in the same
important relation to the Opposition side of the
House, was also present, paying similar com-
pliments, no doubt, to his friends; but while
Mr. Hayter looked gloomy and downcast, the
Major looked quite fresh and lively, and appeared to
be on the best of terra with himself and his party. The

A DISGRACEFUL CIRCUMSTANCE.--A short time
ago, we are informed, a poor woman named Jackson was de-
livered of a still-born child at W haplode Drove. The clergy-
man demanded 9s. 2d. fees, and the sexton ls. tid., for the
interment of the same. The poor man was not able to
raise this amount; so at midnight be interred his child in a
recently made grave. The circumstance being made known,
the sexton, with his iron " grave-taster," proceeded to search
for the morsel of humanity : he found it, took it up, and it
was placed for one night in a closet in the churchyard.
Afterwards the child was taken and placed before the poor
man's door, accompanied with a most unchristian note. The
child had been interred about eight weeksl

DISCOVERY OF GOLD AT OXFORD.—Some twenty
years ago a learned and eminent physician (Dr. Bourne)
d ed at Oxford, where by a long and successful practice he
amassed a large fortune. The house in which he resided,
until a few weeks ago, has been in the occupation of the
family; but the executors having sold the house, it was
requisite to have an auction to dispose of furniture
Previously to that taking place the executors went over it,
and in a wardrobe, which it is believed has never been
opened since the physicisn'sdeath,they found a cabinet,
which, to the agreeable durpri,e of those present, contained
