THE GREAT EXHIBITION.—VISITORS AND SEASON
TICKETS —A double row of seats, covered with crimson
calico, is being constructed along the whole length of the
nave, for the accommodation of the ladies who will be present.
(The gentlemen, it is understood, will stand behind.) It is
estimated that in this way about 6,000 persons can be accom-
modated with seats, and, as there will be no choice allowed,
the earliest arrivals will secure the best places. There ap-
pears to be a general feeling of satisfaction at the intimation
given on Saturday morning that the price of all season
tickets will be reduced to the original sum, and that those
who had paid the extra charge would have the difference
refunded. The demand for season tickets at the Exhibition
on Saturday was so great, that before five o'clock all the
ladies' tickets were disposed of, and it was intimated that no
further supply could be obtained before Tuesday next.
SUPEoSED SUICIDE IN THB ORNAMENTAL WATER
r 1 ST. JAMES'S PARK. - On Saturday morning two men, who
were engaged in watering the paths of the enclosure, disco-
vered a hat, which was lying among the shrubs in one of
the plantations on the south side. The circumstance excit-
ing their suspicion, they were induced to look further, when
they discovered a dark ohject floating on the surtace of the
water. They immediately procured the drags, and suc-
ceeded in bri ging it to land, when it proved to be the body
of a man of about 35 years of age, and very respectably clot.
With the assistance of the Park constable, the body was
speedily removed to St. Margaret's workhouse, De ,n-street,
Westminster, where it now lies to be owned. The unfortu-
nate man wore a black f ock coat, tweed trousers, a figured
waistcoat, blucher boots, and a pink shirt. The inside of his
hat bore the maker's came, " Heath, Oxford-street." There
was nothing found on his person which could afford any clue
to the melancholy occurrence, or in any way establish his
personal identity.
ARRIVAL OF HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS PRINCE HENRY
OF THE NETHERLANDS. - Yesterday, at noon, the Govern-
ment steamer Cyclops arrived in the river. off Black Wall,
having on board his Royal Highness Prince Henry of the
Netherlands, his Aides-de-camp and suite, from the Hague.
His Royal Highness Ras received by his Excellency Count
Schimmelpenninck, Baron Stratenus, and J. W. May, Consul
General. Carriages were in waiting, and soon after the
Prince and party drove off to Mivart's, where apartments
had been prepared for their reception.
THE LATE ACCIDENT IN THE TEMPLE.—MT.
Langhana, deputy-coroner for Westminster, held an inquest
on Saturday in the Old Hall of Lyon's-inn, on the body of
Mr. James Tomlin, barrister-at-law, who was killed on
Thursday night by falling from the staircase window of his
chambers in Paper-buildings, Temple. A variety of evi-
dence was taken, all tending to prove that the fall of the
deceased was accidental. Mr. Peter Cunningham and Mr.
James Crowdy, a solicitor, proved having dined with the
deceased on 'Thursday, at an hotel in Covent-garden. They
parted with him at ten o'clock, when he was quite sober and
cheerful. Mr. H. D. Macleod, barrister, occupying chambers
on the third floor, and immediately over those of the de-
ceased, proved having beard some one come up to the second
floor shortly after eleven o'clock on Thursday night. Imme-
diately afterwards be heard a noise as if a person had leaped
down a flight of stairs. Hearing a bustle at the hall-door he
looked out and saw the deceased on the pavement surrounded
by several persons. He was lying upon his face with his
arms stretched out. There was an immense pool of blood
near him. His hat was lying by his side, and his walking
stick, partly broken, underneseh him. This witness explained
that the window through which the deceased unfortunately
fell was situated between the first and second floor landings,
and, consequently, when open at the top, as it was en Thurs-
day night, to air the place, it would be very possible for a
person who slipped near the top of the stairs, to de-send
with great velocity, and fall through the window without
being able to recover himself. Evidence of a very narrow
escape frcm a similar accident by another gentleman having
been given, the Coroner suggested that some alteration should
be made in the window, and was informed that it had already
been done. The jury, expressing themselves satisfied, re-
turned a verdict of " Accidental death."

THE QUEEN'S HEALTH.—There is not the
slightest foundation for a statement, circulated by a weekly
paper, re:vet:ling her Majesty's health, which, we are h ,ppy
to be enabled to say. ha.. not been interrupted for a siiq.;le
day. No arrangements whatever have yet been made as to
the autumn excursions of the Court,—.ollerver.
