LORD SALISBURY.
A few weeks ago it was announced, that . Lord Salisbury intended to take.up his reBidence at Walmer Castle, with, a view of making a- .prolonged 1 stay -there. The ex« Premier has the use of the castle, by virtue of his office of Lord Warden of the Oinque ports,.and if he has been an infrequent visitor there, it is 'because tfie strong air of this part of the Kent coast'did not suit the \
late Lady Salisbury, who, il will be remembered, was taken ill ait Walmer some> years back, and Bad to be removed promptly to a. moreValmy climate. Lord Salisbury himself likes the place, with its fine Channel outlook, its interesting associations, and its picturesque old-world grounds. The apartreenfc which he uses as a study is the one in which Lord. Nelson and the Duke of Wellington had an interview before the future hero of Trafalgar joined the fleet assembled in the historic Downs. This was the only meeting between Nelson and Wellington.
