The Duke and Duchess of Northumberland have
been passing the holidays at Sion House. His Grac© suffers
occasionally from severe attacks of the gout.
The celebrated Mr. J. Sturge, and Mr. Northouse,
have been elected Members of the National Education Society,
which is eminently successful ; while that at Somerset House
is falling into decay, and will no longer receive the Government
allowance.

LIVERPOOL, TUESDAY EVENING.—Sir F.Head,
stayed here only a few hours' and proceeded by the Railway
train to London, at half-past two P.M. Sir F. appeared in
good health.
His Majesty arrived here yesterday at half-past five,
accompanied by General Fagel, and immediately appeared in
the balcony of the Palace ; and there, as in passing
through the city, he was most cordially greeted by the
assembled multitude. The Crown Prince and his two eldest
sons, and Prince Frederick, are expected to-morrow. We
hear that the Hereditary Prince intended to set out on Wed-
nesday for Germany, accompanied by General Bagelaar—
Dutch Papers, April 24.
Mr. Strauss' Third Concert took place, at the
Queen's Concert Rooms, Hanover-square, yesterday morning.
The following was the arrangement of the concert :—Part L
Overture du Serment, Auber ; Le Philomelen Valse,
Strauss ; Introduction and Variations for the Flute, composed
and executed by Robert Frisch ; Paris Galopade, Strauss ;
Les Bouquets, Strauss. Part IL, La Gabrielle Valse,
Strauss; Introduction (Siege of Corinth), Rossini; Ball
Racketen Valse, Strauss; the Telegraphe Musicale, a grand
Pot-pourri, Strauss. No orchestra that we have ever heard
produces an ensemble equal to that of Mr. Strauss; it is ab-
solutely perfect in its combination, and the details of which, if
we are to judge by the individual talent prominently b, ought
forward, are of first-rate excellence. Le Philolemen Valse was
exquisitely performed. The introduction and variations for
the flute by Mr. Frisch was also, in point of composition,
purity of tone, and admirable execution, a gem of the morning.
La Gabrielle Valse, to our thinking, was the moat perfect of
all the performance; the admirably subdued accompaniments
during the solos, the splendid effects of the brass instruments,
left nothing to be desired. The room was tolerably well
filled by a very fashionable audience, among whom we no-
ticed many of the very elite of the Beau Monde. We advise
our musical readers to avail themselves of the earliest oppor-
tunity to hear these talented artistes. The next concert is on
Friday evening at Willis's Rooms.
DEATH OF SIR JAMES FERGUSSON, OF KIL-
KERRAN, BART.--We regret to have this week the painful
duty of announcing the demise of Sir James Fergusson, of
Kilkerran, Baronet, who expired at 5, Charlotte-square, Edin-
burgh, on the 14th instant, aged seventy-three years. The
venerable Baronet was, in 1799, united to Jane, second daughter
of the late Sir David Dalrymple, Bart, of Hailes, who died in
1803 ; and by his second marriage to Lady Henrietta Duncan
si,ter of the Earl of Camuordo,-in ; and is succeeded in, his
title and estates by Charles Dalrymple Fergusson, of Ha!les,
advocate, the eldest son of the first marriage.--Ay Advertiser.
