CREMORNE GARDENS.—A grand day-and-night
Jets took place at these gardens yesterday, being for the
benefit of the enterprising lessee, Mr. E. T. Smith, and the
crowded attendance amply testified to the estimation in
which that gentleman's catering is held by the amusement-
going portion of the public. In addition to the ballet, bur-
lesque, and the acrobatic, equestrian, amphibious, and
other performances, the programme was supplemented on
this occasion by a grand baloon ascent, which was success-
fully made by Mr. H. Orton, in the "Princess Alexandra"
fish balloon, and a sham fight on the Thames, in which
the vessels of the Iron and Citizen Steam-boat Company
formed the attacking force, and kept up a brisk bombard-
ment of Cromorno for some time, which was replied to
with equal vigour from the shore, after which a brilliant
illumination by coloured fires, and an effective display of
some elaborate set pieces and designs on the river con-
clude d a very gorgeous pyrotechnic display. Dancing
was kept up with great spirit to the inspiriting strains o
the celebrated Cremorne band until an early hour this
morning.
THE STAMFORD AND CLIFDEN CUPS.—These mag-
nificent works of art, which were won respectively by the
Duke of Newcastle and the Marquis of Hastings, will, by
the kind permission of these noblemen, remain on view for
a few days at the show rooms of the designer and manu-
facturer, Mr. J. W. Benson, 25, Old Bond-street. The
former of these is a tazza-shaped cup, with cover sur-
mounted by figures of the celebrated racehorses Charles
XII. and Euclid. The body is chased in high relief, with
a scene representing their memorable race for the Great
St. Leger, and the vase supports, on either side, admirably-
executed figures of the two jockeys, Scott and Conolly,
who rode the horses. The Clifden Cup is a group in oxi-
dised silver, representing the most exciting scene in the
sporting drama of " The Flying Scud." The figures in
this group are most exquisitely modelled, and form a fine
specimen of silversmith's work.

THE EMPRESS OF THE FRENCH.—The French
Imperial steam yacht Rine Hortense, with her Majesty
the Empress of the French oz board, arrived off Ports-
mouth early yesterday morning from Havre, after a plea-
sant passage of eight hours, and achored until afternoon in
the vicinity of the Spit Buoy. A party of ladies and gen-
tlemen from the yacht, including it was supposed the
Empress, landed at Soutbsea in the morning, and spent
some time on the Esplanado and Common, and partook of
luncheon at the Pier Hotel. Shortly before 2 p.m. the
Refine Hortense again weighed for anchor, and steamed
slowly past the fleet at Spithead for Osborne, where the
Empress arrived on a visit to her Majesty the Queen soon
after 3 p.m. As the Empress travelled incognita the yacht
hoisted no standard.

THE SULTAN.—Although his Imperial Majesty
the Sultan remained at Buckingham Palace all day on
Sunday, ho was occupied on subjects most important to
the interests of the Ottoman Empire. After the departure
of Lord Stanley, Mr. Page, the engineer of Westminster-
bridge, was introduced to his Imperial Majesty by his
Highness Fuad Pacha, and with the assistance of his son,
Mr. F. J. Page, exemplified to the Sultan and his Highness
Fuad Pacha the mode of ascending steep gradients, the
particulars of which were explained by his Highness Fuad
Pacha and Signor Guarracino. His Imperial Majesty
fully comprehended the whole system, and hoped it would
be fully developed before his ministers at Constantinopl3,
inasmuch as for the interests of the Ottomans Empire the
introduction of a more economical system of railways was
most important.

THE SULTAN AND THE DOVER CORPORATION.— At
a meeting of the Dover Corporation on Thursday a letter
was read from M. Musurns, the Turkish Ambassador, for-
warding the reply of the Sultan to the address presented to
his Imperial Majesty upon his disembarkation at Dover on
the previous Friday. Theroply was in the following terms:
—" It is with sincere pleasure that I receive your address
the moment I step on the hospitable soil of England. For
a very long time I desired to come to Europe, and above all
to England, to see those centres of civilisation, and in the
name of my country to discharge a debt of gratitude to your
great and noble nation."
REMAP.KABLE EFFECT OF LIGHTNING. —Asa young
man in the telegraph office at Carrick-on-Suir was trans-
mitting some messages last week during the thunder storm
which was then'rag,ing fiercely, the electric fluid entered
the office and struck from his hand an open penknife,
which he was holding. The knife having struck against
the wall of the office rebounded, and the haft struck the
young man on the back of the wrist, which immediately
became very much swollen. The lightning did no other
harm.

A MISER'S Ho Ann.—An old woman, named
Jane Douglas, died at St. Helier's, Jersey, a month
ago, leaving her landlord, Mr. Bow; to take charge of all
she had, as she possessed no relatives. She resided in a
mean house in Byron-road, and was presumed to be, and
put on the appearance of being, very destitute. She was
♦isited by a great many ladies, who supplied what they
deemed her pressing wants. Mr. Bown did not take any
trouble about the deceased's goods after she was dead until
a few days ago a report was sot afloat that she had left a
good sum of money. Thereupon he made an examination
of the house, but succeeded in finding only the sum of
£4 10s. There were, however, five or six boxes, appar-
ently filled with wearing apparel, and an examination
prove I such to bo the case. On their being turned out
the following among other articles wore discovered :-56
silk and stuff dresses, 30 shawls, 108 nightdresses, 127 che-
mises, 29 flannel petticoats, 48 towels, 108 ifrocket handker-
chiefs, 84 pairs of stockings, a quantity of print dresses not
made up, 42 ties and neckerchiefs, 60 nightcaps, 24 skirts,
24 aprons, and 23 dress jackets. Many of the articles were
quite now. In addition to those were found three canisters
and a small chest of tea, a keg and a bag of sugar, and va-
rious other articles of food. Mr. Bown distributed the
wearing apparel among some poor persons and the ragged
schools of the town.

Count de Sartiges is expected in Paris shortly
from Rome. It is not probable that ho will return to that
city, as his term of service expires in six months. Baron
do Malaret is spoken of as his successor.
M. Dohm, editor of the Kladderadatsch, is being
prosecuted simultaneously both at Munich and Berlin on
an accusation of having insulted the King of Bavaria.
