more than attic salt to the seasoning of his long-

stored jokes? 'Why, it must have tickled the
ribs of FALSTAFF, moved to the rarest envy that
mountain of wit, to have witnessed the manner
in which his aristocratic rival in the regions of
fun and selfishness managed to extract enjoyment
from the march of his humbler troop through
Coventry. True, the recruits of the Noble Vis-
count were not reduced to that deplorable state
of destitution artived at by the fat knight's ;
considerably more than a shirt and two napkins
doing duty among them for regimental linen, and
little, if any, exception being takeable to their
personal appearance on the ground of want of
carnal solidity or due comprehensiveness of ves-
ture—the Parliamentary recruit being, as he
ought certainly to be, in good condition by the
end of the session, whatever he was at the begin-

But in that well-arrayed convoy—that lumber-
ing "Parliamentary train," so jealously guarded
by hussars—how many rags of independence and
self-respect were forthcoming ? Not many, we
should fancy, to judge by the gleeful care with
which the Noble Viscount paraded them for
observation, yet kept the wind from coming be-
tween them and his nobility. Beneath an exterior
levity his Premiership conceals a good deal of
ambition, and perhaps still more of patrician
pride. Depend upon it, his Lordship meant some-
thing when he planned the march of the Parlia-
mentary vans, and determined to head them on
horseback, instead of sharing the comforts or
vicissitudes incident to occupancy inside or out.
What could it have been? A thought flashes
across our minds. The noble septuagenarian,
inveterately funny that he is, must by this time
be on the verge of, if not entered, a second time
on the period of addiction to practical joking
common to vivacious and enterprising youth all
the world over.
His Lordship may be supposed—there is nothing
at all outrageous in the supposition—to have be-
come wearied of leading his abject followers in
private by the nose, and to have thought it
would be capital fun to let the public participate
in his former enjoyment of the spectacle. Pro-
bably enough the pride of the artist may have
had a little to do with his determination and in
showing how slavishly obedient he had made them,
he may have further contemplated a political de-
monstration, and a humorous bit of rivalry with
the General commanding at the review. None
of these things imperatively demanded personal
contact or association in public ; consequently, as
a thorough-paced aristocrat, who will use praise
and pay, but generally objects to associate in
public with a plebeian good•for-naught, his Lord-
ship saw no reason why he should prove an ex-
ception to the rule.
Trotting them out, however, would afford but
imperfect enjoyment unless accompanied by ap-
propriate description and comment. Whether
his Lordship had that pleasure and shared it with
others, or not, we will not undertake to say ; but
really, if he had, we should have enjoyed it,
had we listened to him, amazingly. Nobody
could, nobody can tell better than the Noble Vis-
count, how sinners are made of Parliamentary
saints, and to what extent this or that political
virtue is or was proof against temptation. We
could have said as much at the commencement of
the session—it is not easy to say more at its con-
clusion, though all his Lordship's previous expe-
rience was a mere joke, we should fancy, to what
has been gathered in the interval. Inveterate
joker, witty, heartless, reckless good fellow—tell
us in your own good time the story of the session
whose moral you so whimsically portrayed in
your march to Aldershot—and if you cannot
spare us from blushes, be merciful at least to our
ribs. Tell us what jokes you cut on the subject,
both before and after you set out ; and don't fail
to remember what the Members said, and how
they looked (knowing what great culprits they
were) when the vans came for them, accompanied,
for all the world—You malicious dog !—by a
troop of Hussars ! Didn't every man of them
believe, and tremble in his shoes at the thought,
that he was being sent for his sins to the Tower ?
After all, it is too bad to tempt a poor plebeian,
and then trot him out and poke fun at him !
Too bad, after wheedling and ringing him, to lead
him forth by the nose, and brand him henceforth
for what you have helped so materially to make
him. But when was au aristocratic politician
known to be generous ?

SIGNOR ANGELO MAEIANL—Amongst the musical
arrivals in London is Signor Angelo Mariani, the Diret-
tore dole Orchetra of the Carlo Felice of Genoa. He is
the author of a variety of compositions which are very
popular in Italy, such as " La Zingaretta it Postigliari."
At Constantinople he wrote a national hymn for Turkey,
which has often been heard in the Crimea, the Sulta❑
having ordered it to be played in his army.
His Excellency the French Ambassador and the
Countess de Persigny have left Albert•gate House for
Paris, on a brief absenco.
His Excellency the Belgian Minister and Madame
Van de Weyer have gone to Brussels, intending to re-
turn to the Belgian Legation at the end of the ensuing

month.
His Excellency the Hanoverian Minister and the
Countess Helene Kielmansegge have left the residence
of the Hanoverian Legation, on a visit to the estate of
his excellency in Holstein.
Bins REYNOLDS,—We have pleasure in announcing
that Miss Reynolds, the favourite actress at the Hay-
market Theatre, has recovered from her late severe in-
disposition, and will make her re-appearance to-morrow
evening in a new comedy, called "Second Love," which,
with other attractive entertainments, are announced for
her benefit.
It is understood that (the House of Lords will not
hear any more appeals during the present session ; but
it is probable that some judgments will be delivered on
Thursday and Friday nest.
