Her Majesty has directed the Estimates for the
ensuing year to be laid before you,
They hare been prepared with every attention to
economy, and with a due regard to the efficient
performance of the public service at home and
abroad.

MY LORDS AND GENTLEMEN,
Her Majesty commands us to inform you that
Bills will be submitted to your consideration for th
consolidation and the amendment of important por-
tions of the law ; and her Majesty doubts not that
you will give your earnest attention to matters so
deeply affecting the interests of all classes of her
subj ects.

Her Majesty cpmmands us to recommend to
your consideration the expediency of renewing for
a further period the privileges of the Bank of Eng-
land, the conditions imposed on tae issue of bank
notes in the United Kingdom, and the state of the
law relating to Joint-stock Banks.

Her Majesty commands us to express the gral

fication which it affords her to witness the general
well-being and contentment of her people, and to
find that notwithstanding the sacrifices unavoid-
ably attendant upon such a war as that which has
lately terminated, the resources of the country re-
main unimpaired, and its productive industry con-
tinues unchecked in its course of progressive de-

velopment.
Her Majesty commits with confidence the great
interests of the country to your wisdom and care,
and she fervently prays that the blessing of Al-
mighty God may attend your deliberations, and
prosper your councils for the advancement of the
welfare and happiness of her loyal and faithful

people.

DRURY LAIVE THEATRE.

Last evening a drama, in three acts, entitled the
"Black Book," was produced here with complete suc-
cess. The plot of the piece is taken from a French
novel, a dramatic version of which was performed a few
years ago at the Adelphi Theatre. The plot is simple,
and consists chiefly in the adventures of a young lawyer,
under the somewhat disagreeable name of Wolf (Mr. C.
Mathews), in obtaining restitution of the title and
estates of a young and pretty German Baroness (sliss
M. Oliver), of which she has been wrongfully dispos-
sessed. Wolf bas been in the service of person who,
by some peculiar circumstances, happens to have been
the secret agent of the three parties, by whom Mina has
been robbed. This agent dies, and his diary, which is
called the "Demon's Diary," falls into the possession
of Wolf. In this book the whole of the secrets of the
dispoilers are chronicled, and, thus armed, Wolf arrives
at Mina's cottage, near Lillienburg, amidst the raging of
a storm, and owing to the suddenness of his entering,
he is taken by the inhabitants for the demon of the
Hartz Mountains. He humours the belief, and having
arranged his plans with Mina he sets about his task,
and, in the end, owing to the secret revelations of the
Black Book, VI is successful, and Mina rewards his
labours with het hand and heart. The acting of Mr. C.
Mathews was, as it always is, admirable, and the Mina
of Miss Oliver was an exceedingly pretty performance.
To Mr. Linghaas we must award high praise for the
artistic manner in which he sustained the part of Hans
Casper. At the fall of the curtain there were loud calls
for Mr. Mathews, and, on his re-appearance, he was
greeted with the loudest applause. The attraction of
the magnificent pantomime continues unabated. Long
before the rising of the curtain every seat in the house
was occupied.

* Amongst other financial paradoxes resulting from the
working of the existing system is the following :—lf a person
has 3,3001. Consols and purchases 341. in addition, he is, by
the transaction, a loser of 125/. Thus, A has 3,3110 Consols,
which p oduco less than 1001. per annum, he therefore escapes
taxation, paying nil. He purchases 341. Consols, making a
total of 3,3341., which'gives an income of 1001. a year, and
renders him liable to a reduction of 114 d in the pound=4l.
15s 10d; if the tax is made permanent, this is equal to- a
capital of 1591., so that he gains 341., and lose■ 1591. in pre.
sent value, or is in a worse position by 1251.

TURKEY

A letter from Vienna, in the 'idiots, says :
" Achmed Bey, one of the Tcherkess chiefs, who
commands a large corps of irregular troops in the
mountains of the Caucasus, has arrived at Con-
stantinople, to obtain from the great European
powers the recognition of the independence of the
Oircassian countries not yet conquered by Russia,
subject to their being placed under the suzerainty
of the Ottoman Porte. It may be remembered
that a similar project existed at the time of the last
war, but that it was put an end to by the peace of
Paris. It appears that the idea of creating an
independent State in Asia Minor, to which Lord
Stratford de Redcliffe is favourable, has not only
not been abandoned, but that it is now on the
tapir. The Ottoman Government is of course
highly favourable to it. The success of .A.chmed's
mission would be of the highest importance
to all the countries of Asia Minor. It is ru-
moured that Achmed Bey is shortly expected in
the Austrian capital, on a mission from the Cir-
cassian chiefs, to obtain from our Oabinet its cox-
sent to the establishment of an independent State
in the Caucasus. The Circassian diplomatist con-
siders himself certain of the co-operation and sup-
port of England. From Vienna Achmed Bey is
to go direct to London, without passing through
Paris."

The Session of 1857 was this day opened by
Royal Commission. In consequence of her Ma-
jesty not "going down to the house," there was
nothing beyond the attendance of a few Peeresses

to indicate the special nature of the occasion.
At the usual hour the Lord Chancellor and the
other peers named in the Royal Commission

entered the house, and took their seats immedi-
ately before the throne, and the Usher of the
Black Rod was directed to summon the House of

Commons to their lordships' bar.

On the appearance of the Speaker, who was
attended by Lord Palmerston and several other
members, the Royal Commission was read, and
then the Lord Chancellor read the
