LORD LYONS, who so acceptably represented
the British government at Washington, has
passed through the successive grades OF diplo-
matte promotion, till he has become the Brit
ish Ambassador at Paris, which we believe is
regarded as the highest appointment in that
branch Of the public service in which he has
distinguished himself. Lord Lyons, like his ac-
cOmplIshed successor, Sir Frederick Bruce, is
bachelor. AT some private theatricals given
at his house, a lady, who had won much admit
ration by her personatiOn of the heroine of the
play, was asked If she intended to go upon the
stage in tragedy or in comedy.
Il think if could be tempted to play again,
she said, Il would take the part OF the Lady OF
Lyons"
