Arrangements have been made by the gentlemen of Miss Castles conoert oommittee with the National Trustees and Executors Company (says the Melbourne Advocate) to take over the funds recently raised on Miss Castles' behalf, and to act with someone to be appointed by her family. Misa Castles' parents have asked the Rev. G. A. Robinson, 8.A., to act as co-trustee with the company named, and that gentleman has consented to do so. Mr. L. L. Lewis has paid to the credit of the trustees, in favor of Miss Castles, the sum of L6lO 3s Id., the proceeds of the first Melbourne benefit and of the testimonial subscribed by a few admirers. The other moneys resulting from the Exhibition concerts, Bendigo, Ballaiat, etc., will shortly be in the hands of the trustees, so vhat all may be consolidated in one fund and under one administration. Miss Castles' conoert at Albury was a great success, the taking amounting to £160. Misß Castles will leave with her mother for Europe by one of the Measageriei liners, probably early in August.
