POLISH. BALL AND CONCERT AT GUILDHALL, Olf
THURSDAY,•THE 16Th INST.--The committee for con-
ducting the annual fete in the City of London held
another meting at Guildhall on Tuesday last. Mr.
Deputy Peacock occupied the chair, and informed the
members present that the preparations for this enter-
tainment ara progressing with great prospect of success.
Independently of many cirstinguished names of patrons
announced by Lord Dudley Stuart, another abiding
proof of the sympathy felt fur the condition of the un•
fortunate exiles can be foun I in the grateful alacrity
with which the most eminent artistes now in the me-
tropolis have tendered their gratuitous services at the
concert ; their names are Mrs. Weiss, Miss Poole, Miss
Bassino, the Misses Williams, Miss Messent, Miss Miran,
Miss Ranitord, Miss Dolby, Mr. Sims Reeves, Mr. IV.
H. Harrison, Mr. C. Braham, Mr. Whitworth, and Mr.
Frank Bodda. Mr. Benedict and Mr. Lindsay Sloper
are the conductors. An unusual attraction will be added
to the excellent concert by the performance of the cele-
brated pianist, Mr. Chopin, who will, for the first time,
be heard in the City of London. All the gorgeous de-
b rations used at the Lord Mayor's banquet will be pre-
served for the ball, and several new arrangements con-
ducive to the comfort of the company and the magnifi-
cence of the splendid hall, have been determined upon
by the committee. A most efficient band, led by Mr.
Adams, who gave such universal satisfiction on former
occasions, has been engaged. Many applications are
being made fur tickets, which will be issued at the end.of
the week.

The Hon. Robert H. Clive, owing to the failure of
the potato crop, has remitted to the whole of his allot-
ment tenants a moiety of their annual rents.
[ADVERTIBEMENT.]—A Wound in the Leg Cured
by Holloway's Ointment and Pillo.—Extract of a letter
from Mr. Edward Nicholls, 34, Rose-street, Covent-gar-
den. "To Professor Holloway, Sir,—For years I had a
bad leg and about fouryears ago an abscess tormed which
the treatment adopted by several medical men failed to heal,
and I despaired of a cure; lately my friend recommended
your medicines and by their use alone I soon found a
great improvement, and in a few weeks my leg was per-
fectly cured. I can now walk ten miles a day with as
great ease as when I wag twenty years old, and now I
am fifty." Sold by all Druggists and at Professor Hollo-
way's Establishment, 244, Strand, London.
