CASINO DE VENISE.—The Holborn Baths have
been converted into a casino, and now form an agreeable
and attrac.ive place cf amusement for the youth of the
metropolis who delight to trip it on the light fantastic
toe. The baths are covered over with an oak flooring,
polished in the continental style, while the walls and
ceilings are elegantly painted. and embellished with cha•
racteristic sketches of lsz danse. The orchestra is both
numerous and efficient, and the dancing arrangements
being directed by a pulite body of M. C.'s, the Casino
de Venise is not altogether undeserving of the patronage
it meets.

LAURENT'S CASINO.--.MT. Ellis, the spirited pro-
prietor of Cremorne Gardens, and always an indefati-
gable caterer for the public entertainment, is petitioning
the Middlesex magistrates for a dancing licence, to
enable him once more to throw open the doors of the
Adelaide Gallery to the numerous votaries of Terpsichore
who have hitherto composed the habitue,. of the place.
Laurent's Casino was ever distinguished for the order
and respectability of its management, and it is gratify•
ing to know that a large section of the public are backing
Mr. Ellis's application with a petition in its favour.
SUNDAY TRAVELLING IN SCOTLAND.—III the report
of the meting of the Edinburgh, Perth, and Dundee
Railway, which appeared in the papers of Thursday
14st, it was stated that a motion to discontinue the run-
ning of trains on Sundays was met by an amendment,
and that the former was carried by a majority of 324 to
81 votes. This was an error. The amendment was
carried by the majority of 243. We are the more
anxious to notice the unintentional mistake, as this large
majority, together with the victories over the indefati-
gable advocates of unnecessary Sabbath restrictions
which have been lately gained in the North British and
Caledonian Railways, shows that the great bulk of bona
fide Scotch shareholders are in favour of Sunday trains.
THE ORPHANS OF THE LATE LIEUT. AND MRS.
M'KENZIE, OF GREENWICH.—Her Majesty the Queen
Dowager, with her usual munificence, sent a sum of 20h
on learning the state in which the six children of the
late Lieut. M'Kenzie, of Greenwich Hospital, had been
left by the deaths of both their parents, Mrs. M'Kenzie
having been carried off by the cholera whilst attending
the sick bed of her husband, who died the next day.
Lieut. M'Kenzie was one of the old war Lieutenants,
and was twice wounded. We understand also that the
Governor, Admiral Sir Charles Adam, K.C.8., and all
the officers of the institution, have been most prompt in
endeavouring to ameliorate the condition of these
orphans, and Miss Burdett Coutts has manifested her
kindly feelings is a very liberal manner in this case of
distress.

CABINET Courecme—Summoness were issued on
Saturday, by direction of Lord Palmerston, to the
Ministers to attend a Cabinet Council on Tuesday next
(to-morrow), at the Forign- office, Downing-street. Most
of the Ministers are expected to attend, the greater part
being either in town or residing but a short distance
from the metropolis. Lord John Russell is at present
at Woburn Abbey; Lord Palmerston, Mr. Labouchere,
Sir Francis Baring, and the Lord Chancellor are in
town ; both Lord Grey and Sir George Grey are
expected in town to-day), the former from
Rowick.hall, and the latter from Osborne. The Chan-
cellor of the Exchequer and Lady Mary Wool arrived
in town on Thursday, and proceeded on Saturday to
Woburn Abbey on a visit to the Duke lied Duchess of
Bedford. The Right Bon. Gentleman will come to
town on Tuesday, with Lord John Russell, to attend
the Cabinet Council at one o'clock. Lord Palmerston
arrived in town irons Brocket-ball on Friday.
EXPLOSION OF A SEWER IN THE BOROUGH.-011
Saturday evening, about six o'clock, a fearful explosion
of sewer-damp happened inFriar-street, in the Borough;
there were happily no lives lost, though the shock of the
explosion was felt at a considerable distance round the
neighbourhood. The cast-iron plates, covering the man-
holes in the flag-pavement in Friar-street, were all blown
into the air, and flames came through the gully gratings
into the streets. It appears that the sewer iu Friar-
street has been in a most pestilential state for some time,
and cholera is prevailing immediately around it to an
alarming extent. Notwithstanoing repeated complaints
had been made, nothing had been done by the Commis-
sioners, and on Saturday Messrs. Anderson and Cally,
soap-boilers, were prevailed on by some of the iehabi-
tants, in despair, to attempt to draw off the pestilential
vapour by coenecting a pipe from the sewer with one of
their chimneys. All went on apparently well for about
half an hour, when the explosion occurred.
DEATH OF AIR. it. W. LANGSLOW.—It iS with
much regret we record the death, at Jaffna, of 11.
W. Lsngslow, EEq , dt puty to the Queen's advocate. He
died at Jaffna on the night of the 15th, from an attack
of cholera of only twelve hours' duration. The deceased
WAS a young man of very considerable attainments, and
of much promise as a public tflicer. He was the son of
the late district judge of Colombo, so well known in
Ceylon for his independence, and the. persecutions he in
consequence endured. Cridon Overland Observer,
August 15.
BARRACK. MASTERS. Captains Pennefathcr and
Wickham, lately reduced as Barrack Masters in the
West Indic s, have returned to England by order of the

packet Wharf on Saturday morning by the General
Steam Navigation company's steam ship Triton, from
