tends upon the speeches of Her Majesty's. MiuiatOfB
to whom the banquet is given, and who have more
or lese to say. according to circumstances. Perhaps
that of yesterday w as atnoiur the most htilliant
because curiosity was at its height. Xov.-r were
Invitations more eairi rly sought. i liavo so little
talent for soliciting favors that i hold aloof
from competition* of tin* kind, and I had re
signed myself to w.vting till next taBIBlllt'a papers
supplied a retiort of the niit'it's eloquence. Hut a
friend in authority most kindly offered me n card,
and so i found uivsclf at tl <>'< look on .Monday
evening in the midst of the great tlinn g which
gathered to listen to the Prime Ministct's words of
wiadoin. i have said in a previous letter what 1
thought it needful to say on the political aspect of
that unexampled discourse. All i shall attempt now
i? to note down what interested me among the
many features of the great itin-.icipiil f-stival of
the year, omitting most of those w Inch an common
to ever}'such display, and which i described last
year.

Our country was rcpre-ctitcd last yet: at this cer?
emony by Mr. Welsh, w ho, being Minister and Kn
voy Extraordinary, and of unusual height, ma le a
conspicuous liirure among the great personages of
tho day. Last bJbbn the sovereignty of the Hepuh
Lc was inipi?i.-oii.ited by Mr. Il..p|iin as ( Ii nge d'At
Tuires. Li ss enterprising m the mat tat of titles than
Mr. Poach Lawrence, Mr. HappJa refrained from
describing tiinisi If as Minister, though if personal
merit were to count he might have marched uj?t|ie
aisle in the blaze of sin Ii glory as illu?
mines, the possessor of lull diplomatic rank,
lie waa among the earliest arrivals. It
is doubtful whether any of BBS many city officials
who act a* herald* on tins occasion ha ' ever bclorc
beard of a Charge d'Allaitv?. Tiny could make
nothing of the title which Mr. Hoppln modestly
idinoiiuced, and ill their distress their sonorous
voices sunk to a whisper, so that the crowded tanks
of city si; lite, und city dallies between whom Mr.
BaBBBBB advamed were unaware that a Plenipo?
tentiary of the Dotted States was their fellow
guest. When Count Minister, the German Ambassa?
dor, appeared, he w as much cheered. It is permitted
tons to hope that an American diplomatist would
lad have been less warmly greeted had his presence
been made known with equal distinctness.
Of these herald* there were. I shouldBBytBOBBI
eight orten in all, and they were i ften aa much at
fault about Ltigiish tiths us about American.
WbOB Ministers BeajBB to anivc, BSflte of them were
auiioiiM ed by their ininiM. rial tit 'es. some by then
personal tub s; some with the proper handle to
their BaSBSB, some B lthout ; and all with a pleaaing
variety in t ho use of aspirates. I bus we In .ml of the
Light Honorable Mr. Cross, and of the Uiitht Honor
aide the First Lord of tin- Admiralty iplain Mr.
Smith would never have answered1: of Mr. I'.dward
Siatiho|ie without the Ho:iorable, and of " Colo?
nel Stanley,* though he is Honorable as son
to the late Lard i>< iby and Bight Honorable
as Privy C BEBCillor. Not one of the ashen seemed
to have heard ol Colonel Stanley, ot to suspect
that he was anything BPBBJ than the commander of
a regiment. Lord Bury was ? transformed into
Lord Berwick. Lord .lohn Manners had a female
companion with him, w ho In i aim- f<u tin- nonce
Lad.? Manuels. The Marquis of Salisbury was
shorn of bis Most Noble. The I x-Prime Minister of
lb lgiuui w as introduced as eX-Ksvo}'. Sir Evelyn
Wood, the In io ol the Zulu war, was announced at
one cud of the aisle as sir General Wood, and at
the other as Ocueral Lvelyn W.1; all tliest?
proclamations heiug in dnplleate or triplicate.
He was great ly chceicd, w iiii-h led a friend at my
elbow to n-maik that the British public knew
l.ow to distinguish a real lioiu a ahum hero. Five
lniuutcs later came Lord Chelinsford, for w hom the
i-bee ring was not less beany : v.h>ieiipoii inv iriend
desitod leave to withdraw his pn rious remark,
Lord Chelssaford*i face supplieaa complete commen?
tary on lus sorest in BOOth Atrien, When Napoleon
said In-wanted men with big n ises f..r Marshals it
is obvious he did not mean to dispense with till
otlier features. Row Lead Chelaaaford basa suiii

ueit'ii-r chi'i, nor jaw. nor tBOareueci of temple, nor
any BBS of IksSSJ BOnSSSUB of face w hich w e associate
with decision of character. There is weakness
in every lino; with a look of puzzled
anxiety quite fatal to military sei vice.
BB nun immensely pleased with his cheers;
io, for that matter, WBB Sir Evelyn Wood.
Still more so waa sir Charles Whctham, outgoing

day during the procession of which he formed part,
at can hardly be blasted BPJ enjoying the contrast. '

plenty of foolish things, but one rather likes to hear
that he took his punishment cheerfully und waved
his lace handkerchief in res;?oiise to the gioutisthut

eause she was Mrs. Cavendish lieutinck or because
she won- a brocade gown into which huge dia?
mond* were plentifully sewn, I cannot say. The
other was Lsdy Salisbury, to whom the Woman's
ltiahte ix-ople owe thanks for asaerting the prece?
dence of her m X. She would not w alk behind her
buabaud nor v. t by hi* side ; but when the name of
the Foreign Secretary was thundered out at the
lower Bad of tbe greut ball. Lady Salisbury wo*
already weU BB her way up the aisle, swinging along
with pride of port and a certain jollity of loco
which seemed to imply that her Ladyship looked
upon this solemnity n devised for her personal
amusement. Lord Salisbury hurried after the Mar
luioueaa, but failed to overtake her. She it was
who first shook bunds with the Lord Mayor, whose
three-cornered hat provided her with a In sh occa?
sion for mirth ; and when Lord Salu bnrvyume in, u

Was clearly lo doubt whether the terrible Marquis (
or bis quick-footed wife, was the real Caliinot
Minister.
The l^rd Chancellor had passed in just he-fore,

of all, preceded aa lie was by tho wliole slat, of
sticks-in-waiting walking leek ward and bowing

Lord Cairns's powerful faee looks out from the
voluminous wig which descends upon his shoul?

What he is and all he i;, be 1- l>v birth. Lord Cairns

Last of all, Lord BeaOOOtOald came also. It isi
three-quarters past the dinner hour: luitihatde

bare preceded bint, have boon contrived to reader
his entry ibe more impressive. Aud |MpfoooltS It

rather hare rooe witheal their dinner than without
this sauce to it. Tbe wboloPall ris-a for him ; the
Opplanteitd afening; t!ie greeting BBCh BS ho ia
rightly pro".i of. It was a 001OW remark that
Lord Beaou iaftoM was locking ancotnmonly well?
S i he whs; so long as he thought p-.iple were look?
ing at him. Tin- eottditloB of thbj gn at bhuVs beoitb
isauaflairof Stale, and h)diacttOtod TOty much as

less ernhari issing to e?Vcl from time to time an ex?
change of wh it nre HTltliBrTI called his principles.
He baa, bowi rer, his physical peculiarities, and otto
a ho sees hi:a from time to lime is aide lo gu. >s near
enough at his actual health. When he made bit
cutty into the Library Ol the Guildhall, I tttxxl

the desired fXpiOSSiOO was attained. All r< ?ein
blancea, says: great pbysiogm mitt, lie in the ??yes
ami mouth. I "dividual OXprt MifKI lieo tbort too, and
the brief apace daring which Lord Beaeoeefield woo
advauclns up the aisle was not too briel for a goi?l
look at these fratiiies. Tlp y qnitfl continued tho
good reports from llalfield whi'.h I recently men

As the pi... essioa ir on the Library to the Ban?

There are few aetoro wbo make ap better, or who
play their parts more perfectly so lof g as they are

had to say, which, uerertbelei trat to lit tie that it
would not bare aaffered from a briel exordium of
politeness. In Ins oonfOBBBi lor eeaunonplacc civil
itics there waa a touch oi almost regal manner. It is
of the essence of royal go id breeding to show, ami I
presume to feel, aa abaoloto indifference to tbe feel?

Unrine dlanei he sat for tho most part silent.
I luring Iiis speech he bad recourse at intervals to
the ftlasa of c la rot, or it may have been port,
which was in front of him, which was
full when he begun and empty when lie linisheil.
Uta voice was ttftWg CBOtJgb 10 tench through
the hall, with the help ??f a singularly elaborate
ami patient artknlatioti of each syllable that be
uttered. Hut it was hollow; it teemed to be
fetched l?y a tUOCeOBMfl of calculated ?Horts,
from Bomewben in his throat, and was
hnohonded as if he had oaly a limited supply,
wbieh might run ?>u: if not used with economy. He

his maek slipped oil fni a moiuent, the light from
the great chandelier uhove sOroaBSOd lull on his
face, and you saw what he was like \, hen not rosing
for the gallery. ThO ?I.ks grew hollow, the
tint of his skin wax-like, (be lips re?
laxed, the cavernous jaws fell slightly apart,
tbe carefully foeiOBd curls on the left
of the brow slid out ot place, tbe tire sank low iu
his eyes, the whole lace aged BaitlfOJIj ma minute.
If ever a human countenance looked weary und
bored and BBtOBfoL LdM M? a. ..n-tn Id's was thai

his speech had fallen tlat. iu spile of the cheers;
perhaps he did not Bgfg WBOtbdB it had or not, hut
was simply tired nml sleepy, and wanted tn have

did not last ; as soon as sir Stallord gave s.irns of

terest ing; lmt 1 stayed on to the last.
And in the last the weary old man preserved his
air of fresh serenity. He followed the Lndy
Mayoress dutifully out to the draw ing-room. He
endured without any show of resenttneiit the con?
gratulations of a few pushing admirer*. The ever
faithful Montague Corry presently brought him his
rloak, a romantic garment of cloth, very short, and
lined with fur : then t he t wo put their backs to the
wall as if to defy all comers till the Prime Minister's
callage should tie announced. lie had not long to
wait before the far crv from outside the door:
"Lord Ilcaconsfield's carriage coming up" was passed
on to him by a dozen clamorous yet reverential
voices. With a last salute to tit? company he put on
his cocked hat?a laced and plumed piece of head
gear nl the kind known us a fm ,-and-aft hat
ami limped aw ay between a doublt hedge of liv?
eried attendants and spectat >ra of every degree.
Not even his brougham is like an ordinary man's
brougham ; it is not a brougham at all. but a tingle
coach of ancient fashion, swung high in the air on
C springs; c image, horses and servants all very
BBBUrtly turned out. The cm r-f.uthlu! followed his
chief into the coffee-colored interior, the footman
dosed the door ami clnnlied up behind, but, his
foot ea11 hin..?, COMC down headlong faster than he
went up. There was a cry among the crowd, for it

an additional 100,000 absres on bis owe aoconnt

syndicate. It was said ibat the sale of Central

! for one year by the syndicate.
?an \ iM'i S3ST1 . ?< STOOP, aoar,
Iba absolute control nl (I..- Central Itoad hasthus
passed from Mr. Vand. rhiit. Of the 004,283
shares of the capil 1 stock, it is estimated by
per ?ms in a position lo know that the
Vauderbill family owmd. before the re?
cent sate, about 500,000 Shares. A higher cati
inalo has It: en made hy others, w ho place ! the
i number at m arly 000,000 inares, Mr. Vanderbilt
! recently said tbal OS had sold less than one
hnif of h<s inf test, hut at the same time he
admitted the possibility of a Combi nation among
the other stockholders that Might deprive him of
the mHiiiigcment of the rood. It is probable that
less t bau one-third of the stock will bo retained in
the family. It was predicted yesterday
with grcal confidence that Mr. Vsndcrbilt
would not again be refilected president ol Ibe com?
pany. Although it was not Indict id that al present
there was any danger of sin li a combination against
him, it was thought probable tbst before the next,
annual election the control id a BMjorttyof the stock
would fall into the hands of persons hostile to his
reflection. Candidates for the prospective vacancy
were named, even. The course of Mr. Vsnderbilt
in disposing of B controlling interest was believed
generativ to he fraught with important conse?
quences to New-Yoi k.

Them is nothing m the agreement between Mr.
Vanderbilt aad tbs Waboab syndicate that >an com?
pel the\Vabash Cosapaay to deliver its through
freight to the Lefco Shore and Central Roads. That
company is free, indeed, to arrange for an
excbiiage of traffic with tbs Erie and other trunk
lines to the so aboard. If is aBBOfted that saeb a
contract for the exchange ol business would have
been made bef ire this time w ith the Brie
Company if the latter mad had been ready
and able to handle the basiOSSB. For the
present harmony, between the Wsbash and Central
systems haa been assured, Prien da of theWabash
Company aatdyeotsrday thai the admission to the
directory of the Central Road of I he president ami
a director of tho W abash Company was a
sufficient guarantee that the two companies would
v.oik in harmony. Tbe bosloess of the Wabasb

business had btj n gifJOB to I bs Vsfldoi hilt mads. U\
the aeqofarittOBB and HOOIISS'tllMIS recently made
By it. that business was likely |o mwcII
to still larger dimensions. The company was
SSahtag an outlet to the Atlantic seaboard, and
it was known to Mr. Vanderbilt that negotiations
to that end were m progress b. tweeti the managers
of the company and those <>f oilier lines. Tho fear
of losing u baatneai thai had brought to tbs Central
a considerable patt of us revsoos com?
pelled Mr. Vanderbill to SOnelliatS the
Wm bs 'i Interest. His friends were directed
by him toseab t friaadly alliance aith tbe Wsbash
Company, ami tbo efjbrli that for four weeks have

trol M the road from Danville to Cairn,
which, in conneettaa with other lines, will
give a through line from Chhsgo lo New

made the Waliash system one of the. greatest

It was seid yesterday hy a frjeml of the Wahn-h
