MR. STRAUSS' CONCERT.

On Tuesday evening, Mr. Strauss' unrivalled hand repeated
its performances at the Amphitheatre. Mr. Strauss' band
consists of 25 musicians, led by himself, and as a whole they
create the most perfect and haautiful music which can be
imagined, and which, from their extraordinary precision as
to time, seems rather the sound of one instrument played by
one masterly performer, than the united efforts of 25 indivi-
duals. The pieces performed consisted for the most part of
a kind of musical melange, into which portions of several
favourite airs were introduced; the whole played with a spirit,
and a harmonious perfection, which we never before heard
equalled. In several of the pieces played, some striking
musical effects were introduced. In one piece each per-
former had a small bell differently tuned, and in the course
of the piece, whilst the volume of tone from the different in-
struments continued unimpaired, suddenly these little bells
were heard as an accompaniment in proper tune and in exact
time, the sounds proceeding from all parts of the orchestra.
It had a surprising effect. Again,_ in a hunting piece, "Le
Telegraph Musical—Grand Pot Pourri," an instrument was
beard to imitate the rattling of carriages, and every now and
then, keeping exact time with the music, a sharp crack or
report was heard, as if from the driver's whip, till the sound
appeared gradually to die away in the distance, till
"There was naught between it and silence."
Ttre style of the instrumental music then changed, and the
musical glasses were heard as an accompaniment, in imita-
tion of village church bells. The effect altogether was most
brilliant, delightful, and almost magical. Occasional solos
were inerodnced by different members of the band, with
admirable effect. A solo, remarkable for brilliant and rapid
execution, was played on the flute by Mr. Frisch. A short
solo was introduced on the trumpet a piston by one of the
band, which was exquisitely played and rapturously ap-
plauded; and a solo was also performed on a new instrument,
made of sonorous pieces of wood properly tuned, and played
after the manner of the harpsichord, which had a singular
effect, and was remarkable for extraordinary execution.
The wind instruments were surpassingly excellent. The
performance concluded with a piece entitled " Homages la
Reine de la Grande Bretagne," which, like all the other
performances, was very brilliantly executed, and in which
was introduced the national anthem. The concert is to be
repeated this evening, and we can only advise our readers to
go and judge for themselves; the performance is alike ex-
cellent and extraordinary. The boxes were well filled by a
fashionable auditory; the other parts of the house were very
fairly occupied.

Letters from Lima of the latter end of March mention

deration. He was said to be charged with a proposition to
the bondholders here relative to the Peruvian loans.

COLONIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CAPE OF GOOD HOPE.

By Cape papers to the 3d of June we ►earn that accounts
had been received from Port Natal, at Graham's Town; by
way of Caffre land, with the painful intelligence of the total
destruction of the Natal Settlers by the warriors of the Zoola
tribe. Fourteen Europeans, who marched with the settlers
against the Zoolas in this expedition, which was commanded
by Mr. R. Biggar, to revenge the death of Halstead, with
Retell and party, were killed. with the exception of four na-
tives, who had returned to the port, bringing the disastrous
intelligence. There are other versions of this disastrous
affair in the Graham's Town Journal, but they are evidently
much exaggerated, and have not obtained full credit at Cape
Town. The same journal adds that the Cadres had been in
continual movement on the frontiers, and that, at Konsap
and others of the frontier settlements, they had been making
very serious depredations upon the cattle and other stock of
the Boers. No further intelligence had been received from
the Boers under Maritz, in Dingauu's country, and it was
therefore the general impression that they had been hemmed
in by his tribe among the mountains.
The trade of the colony was rapidly improving, if we may
judge by the following comparative official returns of the
estimated value of the imports and exports of the three un-
dermentioned years:—
Imports. Exports.

Imperial Varliament.

HOUSE OF LORDS.-MONDAY.

The cop yrrgitbiliwa; read a third tftWe andpassed.
On the motion that their lordships resolve into committee
on the prisons bill, Lord LYNDHURST again opposed it, and
it was eventually negatived by one; there being in its favour,
32; against it, 33.
Several other bills were then forwarded a stage; but the
third reading of the tithes (Ireland) bill was deferred till
next day.

TRADING COMPANIES BILL.

Lord BROUGHAM gave•notice, he should feel it his duty to
take the sense of the house upon the third reading of the
bill. He thought it was a bill founded upon a worse princi-
ple than any bill which had been offered to their lordships
daring the present session of parliament.
The report of the bill was ordered to be received on Wed-
nesday.

REGISTRATION OE VOTERS BILL.

Their lordshipi went into committee upon the registration
off-voters bill. - ---
Lord LYNDHURST proposed a clause after the 15th clause.,
Its object was to remedy a defect in the reform bill, which
suffered two or more parties who were trustees under a deed
to a property consisting of freehold to vote in right of such
property, without its Leing necessary they should be m the
reception of the rents and profits of the same to their own
use respectively. The noble and learned lord submitted the
following clause, "That it should not be competent to any
person or persons, being such trustee of property so circum
stanced, to vote in right of such trusteeship, unless he were
also in receipt of the rents or profits to and for his own use.
Lord Viscount MELBOURNE objected to the introduction
of a clause which had reference to the prevention of a clause
which had reference to the prevention of fictitious voting,
rather than the registration of votes.
After a few observations from the Lolso CHANCELLOR,
their lordships divided. The numbers were, for the clause,
`23; against it, 16: majority, 7.
The clause of Lord Lyndhurst was agreed to; and, the
other clauses being agreed to, the report was ordered to be
received on Thursday.
The Duke of WELLINGTON asked at what period was it
intended the hill should take effect.
Lord MELBOURNE.—From the period of the bill's receiv-
ing the royal assent.
Their lordships adjourned at a quarter past eight o'clock.

PENSIONS BILL

On the motion that the pensions bill be read the third time,
Mr. O'CONNELL wished to move that the payment of the
Marchioness of Westmeath's pension be suspended during
the marquis's life, as he in reality received it.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that this was
impracticable, as it was fixed by att of parliament.—The bill
was then read a third time and passed.
The Duchies of Cornwall and Lancaster bill was read the
second time; but, in a subsequent part of the evening, the
CHANCELLOR of the' EXCHEQUER withdrew the Duchy of
Cornwall possesSions bill.
On the motion of Lord Jo HN RUSSELL, the house took into
consideration the lords' amendments to the benefices plurali-
ties bill. His lordship observed that he assented to them ge-
nerally; there were some few exceptions.
Mr. AGLIONE,Y moved the re-insertion of clause 3, but the
proposition was negatived on a division. He next moved the
re-insertion of "£150" instead of "£300," where the popu-
lation did not exceed 2,000.
Lord J o RN RUSSELL supported this proposition, whereupon
the lords' amendment was disagreed to.
Mr. HAWES made a proposition to Frovide for inquiring
into the circumstances where a bishop became incapacitated
by age or other infirmity; but it was withdrawn, Lord John
Russell representing that this bill was limited to the regula-
tion of benefices pluralities. The amendments being disposed
of, a communication with the lords thereupon was ordered.
The remaining orders were then proceeded with.
Sir E. CODRINGTON moved for returns regarding the
grounds on which certain naval officers had been deprived of
half-pay; but the house was "counted out" a few minutes
before ten o'clock.

MR. STRAUSS' CONCERT.

On Tuesday evening, Mr. Strauss' unrivalled hand repeated
its performances at the Amphitheatre. Mr. Strauss' band
consists of 25 musicians, led by himself, and as a whole they
create the most perfect and beautiful music which can be
imagined, and which, from their extraordinary precision as
to time, seems rather the sound of .one instrument played by
one masterly performer, than the united efforts of 25 indivi-
duals. The pieces performed consisted for the most part of
a kind of musical melange, into which portions of several
favourite airs were introduced; the whole played with a spirit,
and a harmonious perfection, which we never before heard
equalled. In several of the pieces played, some striking
musical effects were introduced. In one piece each per-
former had a small bell d►fferently tuned, and in the course
of the piece, whilst the volume of tone from the different in-
struments continued unimpaired, suddenly these little bells
were heard as an accompaniment in proper tune and in exact
time, the sounds proceeding from all parts of the orchestra.
It had a surprising effect. Again, in a hunting piece, "Le
Telegraph Musical—Grand Pot Pourri," an instrument was
heard to imitate the rattling of carriages, and every now and
then, keeping exact time with the music, a sharp crack or
report was heard, as if from the driver's whip, till the sound
appeared gradually to die away in the distance, till
"There was naught between it and silence."
The style of the instrumental music then changed, and the
musical glasses were heard as an accompaniment, in imita-
tion of village church bells. The effect altogether was most
brilliant, delightful, and almost magical. Occasional solos
were ineroduced by different members of the band, with
admirable effect. A solo, remarkable for brilliant and rapid
execution, was played on the flute by Mr. Frisch. A short
solo was introduced on the trumpet a piston by one of the
band, which was exquisitely played and rapturously ap-
plauded; and a solo was also performed on a new instrument,
made of sonorous pieces of wood properly tuned, and played
after the manner of the harpsichord, which had a singular
effect, and was remarkable for extraordinary execution.
The wind instruments were surpassingly excellent. The
performance concluded with a piece entitled "Homage a la
Reine de la Grande Bretagne," which, like all the other
performances, was very brilliantly executed, and in which
was introduced the national anthem. The concert is to be
repeated this evening, and we can only advise our readers to
go and judge for themselves; the performance is alike ex-
cellent and extraordinary. The boxes were well filled by a
fashionable auditory; the other parts of the house were very
fairly occupied.

L IM A.

Letters from Lima of the latter end of March mention
that a Mr. Lance had been appointed and was about to pro-
ceed to this country as Consul of the Peru Bolivian Confe-
deration. He was said to be charged with a proposition to
the bondholders here relative to the Peruvian loans.

COLONIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CAPE OF GOOD HOPE.

By Cape papers to the 3d of June we learn that accounts
had been received from Port Natal, at Graham's Town, by
way of Caffre land, with the painful intelligence of the total
destruction of the Natal Settlers by the warriors of the Zoola
tribe. Fourteen Europeans, who marched with the settlers
against the Zoolas in this expedition, which was commanded
by Mr. R. Biggar, to revenge the death of Halstead, with
Reteif and party, were killed, with the exception of four na-
tives, who had returned to the port, bringing the disastrous
intelligence. There are other versions of this disastrous
affair in the Graham's Town Journal, but they are evidently
much exaggerated, and have not obtained full credit at Cape
Town. The same journal adds that the Caffres had been in
continual movement on the frontiers, and that, at Konsap
and others of the frontier settlements, they had been making
very serious depredations upon the cattle and other stock of
the Boers. No further intelligence had been received from
the Boers under Maritz, in Disigauu's country, and it was
therefore the general impression that they had been hemmed
in by his tribe among the mountains.
The trade of the colony was rapidly improving, if we may
judge by the following comparative official returns of the
estimated value of the imports and exports of the three un-
dermentioned years:—

LIVERPOOL ASSIZES.

Yesterday afternoon, about five o'clock, the judges, Sir
Edward Hall Alderson and Sir John Williams, arrived at
Liverpool, from Lancaster, preceded by the usual cavalcade
of outriders and sheriff's javelin men. Their lordships
were accompanied by the high sheriff and his chaplain, the
Rev. Rector Brooks; they were followed by the Mayor's
carriage, containing his Worship, the Town-clerk, and two
other gentlemen, who went to the outskirts of the town,
to meet them. The judges drove immediately to the Court-
house, where her Majesty's commission was read with the
usual formalities, and the court was immediately adjourned
to eleven o'clock this morning. Their lordships did not pro-
ceed to church, but drove from thence to the judges' lodgings,
in St. Anne-street. They will attend divine service at a
a quarter after ten o'clock this morning, before proceeding to
the court. The assize sermon, not being preached on the
arrival of the judges, will be preached on Sunday, at St.
George's, by the Sheriff's Chaplain. The calendar, we un-
derstand, is a very heavy one.

W. B. PROMOLI,
SUCCESSOR TO THOMAS WOOLFIELD,
No. 24, CHURCH-STREET,
ADJOINING THE POSTOFFICE,
RESPECTFULLY announces, that, agreeably to his
former advertisement, he has THIS DAY, Tuesday, the
11th instant, OPENED HIS NEW PREMISES to the
Public. He therefore begs to renew his invitation to his
Friends and Customers to visit his unrivalled Establishment,
and to inspect a Stock remarkable for its greater extent,
elegance, and choice of Goods than any yet collected toge-
ther.

W. B. P., under the impression that his concern is really
unique, will, being honoured with the same encouragement
and distinguished patronage with which he has hitherto been
favoured, continue to maintain it on a similar scale of mag-
nitude, by, if possible, a still greater attention to the manu-
facturing of his Goods, and by a careful selection of the best
of their kind in England, France, Germany, and Italy; his
knowledge and experience of which may be gathered from
the fact, that, for the last eight years, he was accustomed to
act i❑ the latter department for his esteemed friend and pre-
decessor, THOMAS WOOLFIELD, who, in return, being at
present on the Continent, is giving him the advantage of his
time and taste in the purchase of articles of novelty.
W. B. P. considers it unnecessary to remind the Public,
that, selling always for nett cash, without any deduction, he
is enabled to charge comparatively a very small profit upon
his Goods; therefore, it must follow that their price and
quality are unequalled. He may farther add, that his great
sales in every branch also enable him to manufacture and to
purchase iu large quantities; consequently, he buys at a less
cost, and obtains the full advantage of the manufacturers'
discounts where allowed for payment in cash.
In a few weeks the Fixtures, &c. will be ready for the two
former Shops, when the whole Front will be made to corre-
spond, exhibiting a rich and attractive display of Goods from
all parts of the world.

J. SCHWEPPE AND CO.,

MANUFACTURERS TO THE QUEEN AND ALL THE
ROYAL FAMILY,
51, BERNERS-STREET, LONDON.

EAL Judges of SODA WATER need not to be told
111., that its main excellence consists in the LENGTH OF TIME
during which it retains its life and pungency AFTER IT IS
POURED OUT, and not (as many erroneously suppose) on the
force with which it expels the cork. This latter is rather the
characteristic of the commonest Soda Water, for the obvious
reason that the air is disengaged, whereas, by the peculiar
principle of SCHWEPPE'S process, the Carbonic Acid does
not escape with the cork, but, being thoroughly amalgamated
with the water, remains as a valuable medicinal feature in
their manufacture. The same observations will apply to their
Aerated Lemonade, Potass and Magnesia Waters.
Pray observe the RED LABEL, over the Cork, representing
their Signature, as many of the other makers impose upon
the public by filling " Schweppe's Bottles" with their own
spurious Composition.

LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, Auo. 16.
The effect of an abundant supply of Butter, both in this market
and in London, has been a reduction, in the price of all descrip-
tions. of about 38 per cwt. We have before expressed our opinion,
in the face of much rain speculation—that the currency of this
article would rule moderate. Facts confirm such a view ; and
further we may state, that nothing but the illegitimate use of capital,
aided by misrepresentation, (vide late events in the Corn trade,)
can possibly force prices up to a dangerous height. Belfast Butter
and the finer sorts from the South of Ireland we call 90s to 92s per
cwt.—Such is the reduced state of our stock of Beef and Pork
here, that holders are positively getting their own prices—as much
as £d per tierce has been paid.—Pork 84s.—Bacon 54s for fine Bel-
fast middles.—Hams 66s to 68s.
