THE " DUKE OF CLARENCE" BALL.—The annual
ball given by Mrs. Simpson, the hostess of the
Duke of Clarence Tavern, Notting-hill, ,took place onWed-
nesday last, and, notwithstanding the.;inclemency of the
weather, the company was a very large one. Au efficient
band was engaged, and all the favourite quadrilles and
waltzes were played with spirit and effect. An elegant
supper was served in a very tastefully-decorated apart-
ment., after which dancing was resumed and kept up with
unflagging ardour until tho little hours of the morning.
The company then separated, highly delighted with the
entertainment that had been provided for them.
QUITE RIGHT Too !—lt is rumoured at Oxford
that Mr. Goldwin Smith, Regius Professor of Modern His-
tory in that Urtivasity, will shortly resign his appoint-
ment.

The New York Times thinks that important dis-
coveries in gold quartz have been made in Western Massa-
chusetts. Cobalt is said to have been found in the same
district where the gold is obtained.
