that in this matter Parliament may be led by the
nose to initiate one grand, obvious, and whole-
sorne act of purification.

A Cabinet Council was held at 12 o'clock this
day, at the Earl of Derby's private residence, his
lordship being still prevented by indisposition Lora
attend ing at his official residence in Downing-
street.. The Ministers present were :=--The Right
Hon. B. Disraeli, the Lord Chancellor, the Mar-
quis of Salisbury, the Earl of Hardwioke, Mr.
Secretary Walpole, the Earl of Malmesbury, the
Right Hon. Sir E. Bulwer-Lytton, General Peel,
the Right Hon. Sir J. Pakington, Lord Stanley,
the Right Hon. J. W. Henley, and Lord John
Manners.

We have reason to believe that the Earl of Derby
has taken 03terley Park, near Brentford, for the
summer months ; and it is, with much pleasure,
we observe that the noble Earl thus intends to
depart from the unfortunate example of his imme-
diate predecssors, who, even atthe critical moment,
could not deny themselves the gratification of
seeking amusement in the most distant and fre-
quently inaccessible parts of the United Kingdom.

MADAME BASSANO AND HERR KUHE'S
CONCERT.

These well-known artistes give their annual
grand morning concert to-morrow, at the Hanover-
square Rooms. Madame Yiardot Garcia, Mr.
Sims Reeve, and the other chief musical celebri-
ties of the season will assist ; and Madame Bassano
and Herr Kuhe themselves have already secured the
public favour by their respective performances as
vocalist and pianist. The name of M. Benedict
as one of the conductors secures the efficient direc-
tion of the conceit, which, we have no doubt, will
maintain its place among the best and most
fashionably attended of the season.

MADEMOISELLE Ili-mfrs.—The refusal on the part of
the direction of the Viennese Opera to allow the exten-
sion of this popular larly'scontie has been rescinded—not,
we have reason to believe, from any motive of liberality
towards the manager of the London theatre, where her
services have proved of such inestimable value, but be-
cause, at the eleventh hour, certain repairs which have
for some time been in progress at the "Karnthnerthor"
are found not sufficiently advanced to admit of the usual
performances being resumed at the time expected. Thus
the patrons of Her Majesty's Theatre may look forward
to a repetition of those operas in which Mademoiselle
Titiens has already achieved so well-merited a success,
besides others in which she has not yet appeared before
a London audience—and among the rest, no doubt our
musical readers wil, hope, Beethoven's "Fidelio."
DEATH OF THE EARL Or GLENGALL.—We regret to
announce the death of the Earl of Glengall, who died
yesterday morning rather suddenly, at Cowes, Isle of
Wight. He was 64 years of age. In default of male
issue, we believe the earldom becomes extinct. The
deceased earl was the author of the popular farce
of " The Irish Tutor," and other dramatic works of
respectable talent, and of late years has contributed
several political essays to the columns of the Conserva.
tive press, of more than average ability. The earl's
ancestors were a branch of the noble house of Ormond,
-pringing from the third earl. By his decease a vacancy
occurs among the Irish representative psers in Parlia-
ment.

APPROACHING MARRIAGE IN HIGH LIFE.-4 mar-
riage is arranged to take place between Miss Florence
Sheridan, daughter of Mr. Brinsley Sheridan, M.P., and
the Hon. A. F. Bamfylde, only son of Lord and Lady
Poltimore.

His Majesty the King of the Belgians visited the
Duchess of Kent, yesterday, at Clarence Howe, St.
James's. _
