Coggswell, of Rhode Island; Miss Durand, of isew Orleans, and others. A Miss Cooke, of Cincinnati. a soprano, was compelled to break three different engagements before she could make her appearance, on account of illness, and wilt probably not be able to sing again.

Abbott, D.D., Chancellor of the diocese of Kilfenora, respecting the Imperial title, says:—" Her Majesty is not justified in assuming it; neither does the Drown of England require the &titious and tawdry lustre conferred by this modern shalbw gilding."
