LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKE7—This Day

Market opens heavy and very irregular. Sales
probably 8,000 or 10,000 bales.

Crystal Palace.

the coming few days are likely to be the busiest
and most varied ever experienced at the Crystal
Palace.

The Dramatic College Fetes and Fancy Fair,
presided over by the Ladies of the Dramatic pro-
fession, and for which most extensive preparations
have this year been made, and which embrace the
assistance of nearly the whole of the theatrical
world, will be held on SAturday and Monday. The
programme issued for the occasion is a curiosity as
regards the varied amusements and attractions pro-
vided for these popular revels. All the old favou-
rites, with many new ones, have volunteered their
services, and an amount of gaiety and fun of the
most extraordinary character may be looked for.
These fetes last from 12 till dusk.

On Tuesday the Palace will remain closed until
two o'clock, to gain time for preparing a great com-
bined fete, by Royal command, in honour of his
Imperial Majesty the Sultan, who with the Prince
of \Vales, and other members of the imperial and
Royal families, will be present on the occasion.
There will be a Grand Concert by the artistes of
Her Majesty's Theatre, which theatre will be closed
for that evening. The first part will consist mainly
of au operatic selection, and the second part will
comprise a Turkish hymn complimentary to the Sul-
tan, set to music by Signor Arditi, the National
Anthem, and other selections of music, by a vast
festival orchestra of nearly three thousand per-
formers. Besides the artistes of Her Majesty's
Theatre, members of various choral societies, the
band of the company and military bands will help
to swell the numbers. A special display of the
Great Fountains will take place at about half-past
six, after which the Sultan and other Royal and
distinguished visitors will promenade through the
Building and Fine Art Courts, and dine in one of
the corridors of the Palace. The second part of
the concert will take place soon after half-past
eight, the orchestra being lighted up for the occa-
sion.

A magnificent display of fireworks and illumina-
tion of fountains will take place as soon as it is dark
(about half-past 9 o'clock), and special features in-
troduced for the first time will add vastly to the
brilliancy of this display, which in itself will be
unique.

Full particulars of this great combined fete are an-
nounced. Season ticket holders will be admitted on
payment of half-a-crown, the prices of admission to
the Palace to non-season ticket holders and to re-
served seats being five shillings. On the day of the
fete, the price of admission will be doubled, both to
the public and to season ticket holders.

Wednesday will be a great popular day, when the
fountains will be again illuminated for the Belgians,
who have accepted an invitation to be present on that
afternoon and evening. This will be a truly
nationai fete available to all, at the usual rate of
admission, Is. Special and appropriate illumina-
tions will also be displayed on this occasion.

On Thursday and Friday the archery fetes,
which are on a more extensive scale than hitherto,
will take place ; and on Saturday the last of the
series of opera concerts will be given.
Never in the experience of the Palace have so
many special attractions been brought into so
small a compass, and a considerable addition may
be anticipated to the number attending, as well as
an increased sale of season tickets.

A MAN AND Two BOYS DROWNED.._ on
Wednesday morning Mr. Woodman, the summoning
officer for Camberwell, waited upon Mr. Carter, the Surrey
Coroner, with information that a respectably-dressed
elderly man bad been found drowned in the basin of the
Gland Surrey Canal, Albany-road. The body was got
out to the bank, and removed to the Workhouse. Also
that two boys, who had gone to the Vestry Field brick
ground, whilst bathing both became entangled in the mud
and disappeared. A man who witnessed the occurrence.
jumped into the pond, and got them both out, but life was
extinct. The bodies were removed to the dead house, at
which establishment the three inquests will be held.

THE CROPS IN CORNWALL—The crop of hay
this year in every part of Cornwall is exceedingly good,
both as regards quality and quantity. Wheat, barley, and
oats are also reported to be looking full of great promise,
and all the crops are iu a forward condition. The potato
crop is below an average, the disease having made fearful
ravages.
