LORD EBRINGTON.

The public will lear❑ with regret the affliction that
has befallen the noble lord in the course of investiga-
tions made in the cause of suffering humanity. Having
in connection with the late severe mortality of the army
had his attention called to the deplorable condition of
many of the military hospitals at home, even of those
in the metropolis, he determined to see and examine
them himself with the view of bringing them under the
consideration of the Legislature, upon a motion of which
he had given notice. He visited several of them and
c inver,ed with many of the suffering soldiers. In com-
miseration of the patients he prolonged his stay in one
toul ward where a number vs ere aftlcted with ophthalmia.
Shortly after this visit be, was himself attacked w►th
purulent ophthalmia of the most virulent and agonising
character in both eyes. For a long time there was immi-
nent danger of the entire loss of sight. By the unre-
mitting attention and slain of Mr. White Cooper the
use of one of the injured eyes has been preserved, Let
on Saturday for the relief and safety of that one, it was
found necessary by him, with the sanction and in the
presence of Sir Benjamin Brodie, to perform an opera-
tion for the removal of a tumour, by which his lord-
ship, atter very prolonged suffering, is permanently de-
prived ut the use of the other eye. He and his family
may be consoled by the ass urance that the suffering and
the permanent injury awl disfigurement sustained in
such a cause will everywhe !re entire strong sympathy.

Lord PALMERSTON—though we certainly didn't
imagine it—turns out after all to be that long-
talked of phenomenon in the shape of a " for keel
radish," that long-desired, long-expected, ninei.
aspiring, more achieving, and most remarkable et
all extraordinary personages, The Corning Man.
There really is, this time, no mistake at all about
it. The Coming Man has Come, actually Come,
at last. More than this, he has been in the
midst of us years and years (we don't care to
reckon how many, any more than we should feel
disposed to calculate the number of grey hairs
and wrinkles upon a Cupid fallen into " the sere
and yellow leaf ")—he has been, it seems, in the
very midst of us all this long while without our
knowing it—Le Voici ! Milord PALMERSTON !
The Coming Man—really crying Adsum ! in the
person of that gay young old Vis Count pro-
fanely called in a recent number of
Mr. DICKENS'S Household Words "The First
Lord of the Jokery 1" Yes—the Coming Kin is
present, in the person of Lord PALMERSTON. Fur
surely no one but the Coming Man could by pos-
sibility be what the Times this morning distinctly
declares Lord PALMERSTON to be, viz., " The
Right Man in the Right Place !" Never, '.e
undertake to assert most positively, never was
adulation more gross, or (because so gross) more
revolting than that addressed to the Prime
Minister of England (now that he is in power) by
the great daily organ of the present purely acci-
dental Administration, literally and notoriously
the Government of an Emergency 1 Viscount
PALMERSTON, K.G., and First Lord of the Trea-
sury—we beg Mr. DICKENS' pardon, First Lord
of the Jokery !—now that he is in power, now
that he is warm in the saddle, holding the reins of
office, and possessing all sorts of delightfulprivilegcs
and prerogatives in the shape of place and preferment
—Lord PALMERSTON, ander this illusory guise, is to
the Times To-DAY—What is he not ? " The
Right Man iu the Right Place"—He, at least, is
that, says our contemporary. He is more, infi-
nitely more, he is master of the situation, he fs SOUTHAMPTON, July VI .—The Prince and Princess of
