company.
At the close, Mr. W. W. SJstrsore, of London, addressed
his Lordship in the following terms : My Lord, this
must have been, if not the • must glorious, yet the proudest
day in your Lordship's life—a day on which the sun has
broken through the darkest clouds, and the morning stars
must have "sang together;" and the collected thousands
of your Lordship's tenants are now shouting, and will be
ever shouting, for joy. My Lord, in all human probability
we " ne'er shall look upon the like again." The effects of
such a marvellous display of the reciprocal interests, as
between landlord and tenant, will pervade all time. The
contented bearing of your Lordship's tenantry, -in every
grade of life, down to the smallest occupiers, who evidently
belong to that improving, neat and comfortable class, which
from my intercourse in my professional avocations for the
last twelve years, I have observed pre.-eminently attaches
to the province of Ulster. I cannot conclude,' my
.Lord,
without expressing to your Lordship my gratitude for the
urbanity and kindness shown to me by your Lordship and
your deservedly esteemed agent, the Dean of Ross. lam
proud, also, to have to acknowledge the great attention I
received from James Watson, Esq., of Brookhill, that worthy
veteran and champion of the Protestant ascendancy of these
realms, and the best institutions of the United Kingdom,
having, at the same time, due regard to living at peace with
all men, " as far as is consistent with the maintenance of the
integrity of the empire."
On a given signal the band struck up the "National An-
them," which closed the proceedings. The company retired
peaceably, all evincing the pleasure they had experienced at
the entertainment.—lpswich Journal.

ELEGANT LITERARY AND PICTORIAL PRESENT.—
In noticing the splendid volume entitled " Evenings at
Haddon Hall," just produced by the Baroness de Calabrella,
and illustrated by Cattennole, the Britannia observes :
" The volume before us is in every respect superior to any
work of a similar kind we ever remember to have met with.
The plates, beautifully engraved from drawings by Catter-
mole, render it one of the most elegant books ever laid on
the table of a drawing-room. But the work possesses far
higher claims to our notice than the mere beauty of its ap-
pearance. The contributions, by some of the most admired
writers of the day, are evidently composed expressly for the
work, and the accomplished lady who edits it has constructed
a graceful framework, which unites the different beautiful
tales into a continuous and pleasing narrative. The plates
are so various that they give occasion for the representation
of scenes and adventures in every age and country. We can
mention none of the tales without praise, for all are ex-
cellent; but ' The Nubian Slave' will alone suffice to esta-
blish the claims of the work to originality and merit. The
Baroness has certainly been quite successful, both in securing
contributions from many of the most eminent writers of the
' day, and in producing a volume which will be the guide and
delight of many a, family during the ensuing season."
