LONDON GRFATLY AGITATED, The attendavce at prayers at the house of commms this afternoon was unusually large. The reports that the ministry had resigned had been thoroughly circulated throughout the metropolis and great cr.wds of people surrouuded all entrances to the par- liament buildings, eager to catc & glimse of he ministers when they should entor, or hear a report bearing upon the 1mp-ndu g events. Tt wea generally understiod before tho meet- iag of the house that Glad: tone would move an adj urnment uutil Friday, in order to en able the government to communicate with the queen regarding the criels, and the best method of meeting it The members of the commons before the prayer h ur sf about in the lobbies eagerly discussing the situation, WHAT THR PAPKRS BAY.

That the program was thor- oughly comprehended and enjoyed was attested by the close attentlon and ap- preciative app'auee with which the suc- cetsive numbers were received. Itis hardly necessary t) speak in de- tail of the programme. The work of the orchestra under the baton ef Mr. Taomas was but little short of perfoction.
