i \ S M : i ,. j ! ty evening , at the request of the Princess ol \ J vVuies , Her Majesty advised the celebration of H Ihwe ' eii , and celebrated ifc was with very great success . A |» .-ooe .-.-imi , consisting of some two hundred torch bearers , headed by the Princess of Wales , her young daughters , and

ttie Princess Beatrice , each of whom bore a torch , marched through the grounds with the Queen ' s pipers leading the wav . ami having then made the circuit of xhe Castle . several times , a huge pile , erected on the green west of the Castle , was tired b y the Priucesses of Wales and Beatrice , and the

Our Weekly Budget

torch-light dance was commenced with great vigour , the Princess , as Avell as most of the ladies and gentlemen of the Court , taking part in it . Then a fantastically-dvcssed company appeared in charge of "the witch , " Avhich was enthroned on a carriage , and Avhen the cortege had passed

round and round tho fire , the witch Avas pitched into it . Numerous toasts to Her Majesty , the Princess of Wales , the Princess Beatrice , having been proposed and drunk with great enthusiasm , a ball folloAvecl , Avhich Avas honoured by the Royal party , and kept up merrily for several hours .

The Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh have reached Malta on board H . M . S . Sultan , the Osborne following with the Royal children and snite . On landing they wero received with grand naval and military honours , and proceeded , amid the cheers of tho population , to the San Antonio Palace , where the Duchess will reside for somo time .

Summonses have been issued for a Cabinet Council to

bo held on Monday , this being no doubt in view of tho celebration of Lord Mayor ' s Day on Friday next , as Avell as to discuss the political situation . All the members of the Cabinet , it seems , have accepted the invitation of the

Lord Mayor elect to be present at the banquet in Guildhall in honour of his inauguration into the Chief Magistracy of the City , with the single exception of Lord Beaconsfield , Avhose reply , however , was expected .

The Indian Famine Relief Fund had reached the total of £ 434 , 000 on Wednesday , of Avhich £ 405 , 000 had been remitted to Madras on Monday . The Lord Mayor has received an autograph letter of thanks from the Duke of Buckingham and Chandos , Governor of Madras . Among

the principal contributions are £ 500 , fourth instalment , from Rochdale ; £ 500 , sixth ditto , from Halifax ; Buckingham , second instalment , £ 150 ; Sir Sam . Scott , Bart , and Co ., 100 guineas ; Denbigh , second instalment , £ 48 . Next Wednesday , Grand Chapter ¦ will be invited to contribute 300 guineas toAvards the same fund .

Lord Justice Amphlett having found it necessary to retire in consequence of the state of his health , his place has been filled by the appointment of the Hon . Mr . Thesiger , who will be about the youngest member of the judicial bench Avho has been raised to that dignity for many years .

Mr . Thesiger Avas in the enjoyment of a very lucrative practice . There seems to be a question whether he will accept knighthood , his position as son of a peer alread y giving him precedence over knights bachelor . The Hon . Justice Denman declined the honour on this ground , and possibly the son of Lord Chelmsford may do the same .

The decision of the Home Secretary has been given in the case of the Penge convicts . The brothers Staunton and Mrs . Patrick Staunton have had their sentence commuted to penal servitude for life , Avhile Her Majesty has been advised to grant a free pardon to Alice Rhodes . This

must be taken as an indication that , in the opinion of the Home Office authorities , the brothers and Mrs . Patrick Staunton aro guilty of the most terrible form of manslaughter , for they have received the heaviest punishment aAvarded short of death . We think the ends of justice

have been fully satisfied . It never rains but it pours . The first colliery accident , which occurred near Wigan , and caused the loss of twelve lives , Avas followed very swiftly by one of the most appalling accidents of this kind of Avhich we have read , no less

than two hundred lives being sacrificed in the explosion Avhich took place not so very long since at Blantyre , near Glasgow . Now a third has happened at South Kirby , near Pontefract , and caused the death of four , and serious injury to five men . This , however , Avas not the result of an

explosion , but was duo to the breaking of a rope when a truck full of stone Avas being raised to the pit ' s mouth , Just as the truck had reached within tAventy yards of the surface , the rope broke , and the truck was precipitated to

the bottom , a distance of some four hundred yards , crushing four unfortunate men to death , and seriously hurting it her five . The usual inquest will be held , and the Government Inspector of Mines for the district will be present .

The trial of the detectives is still progressing , while that of Dr . Langley , Swindlehurst and Saffery has resulted in their conviction and sentence , the first tAvo to eighteen , and the last to twelve months' imprisonment Avith hard labour . This Avill no doubt have the effect of making' middlemen

and others chary about taking bonuses and sharing them with others . Sadler ' s Wells , Avhich years since , under the able management of Mr . Phelps , was for a long time the only homo in London of the legitimate drama , buv which , since those
