We are going on to the case of the borough of Great Bedwin immediately."] At half after seven on Sunday I was set down at Littleton's palace, for such it is, in Grosvenor Place.

It really is a noble house; four superb drawing-rooms on the first floor, hung round with some excellent pictures--a Hobbema, (the finest by that artist in the world, it is said,) and Lawrence's charming portrait of Mrs.Littleton.The beautiful original, by the bye, did not make her appearance.

We were a party of gentlemen.

But such gentlemen! Listen, and be proud of your connection with one who is admitted to eat and drink in the same room with beings so exalted.

There were two Chancellors, Lord Brougham and Lord Plunket.
There was Earl Gower; Lord St.Vincent; Lord Seaford; Lord Duncannon; Lord Ebrington; Sir James Graham; Sir John Newport; the two Secretaries of the Treasury, Rice and Ellice; George Lamb; Denison; and half a dozen more Lords and distinguished Commoners, not to mention Littleton himself.
