CADBURY’S COCOA.

The Medical Annual advises Practitioner* to remember that when recommending Ooeoa as a food and beverage for invalids, the name Cadbury on any pocket of Cocoa is a guar* antee of purity. It is gratifying to know that the Admiralty have not forgotten to whose exertions the escape of the Calliope from the hurricane at Samoa was mainly due. Mr Bonrke, the staff-engineer of the ship, it will be remembered was rewarded by the barren honour of “advancement” to the rank of fleet engineer, which did not increase his pay, scarcely improved bis position, and caused him considerable expense for extra gold lace on bis uniform. Mr Milton, who was the next engineer officer to Mr Bonrke, has been more fortunate- He has just been specially promoted to the rank of chief engineer, which is a real and substantial advantaee, as he gains thirty-two places on the seniority list by it. Captain Henry Kane, commander of the Calliope, will, it is understood, succeed Captain Folliser as flagcaptain to Admiral the Earl of OlanwiUiam, at Portsmouth. ADELINA PATTI. MDMB.

She put on the Duke of Wellington's eword when he went to meet Napoleon, and the scene of the festivities was the house of her father, the Duke of Biohmond. Nine years afterwards she married the Hon. William Lennox Lascelles de Bos, afterwards twentieth baron of that ilk, who in 1839 succeeded his brother, the hero of the famous card case. Her husband died in 1874, and the present Lord de Bos is her son. Lady de Bos is believed to have survived every officer, if not every man, who fought at Waterloo.

Lady de Bos published a few months ago her reminiscences of the ball, with a description of the building and the street in which it was held.
