_Some More of Them_.--THE QUEEN has been further pleased to confer the
dignity of a Peerage of the United Kingdom upon--
Mr. Sheriff AUGUSTUS HARRIS, who will, on taking his seat in the Upper
House, assume the title of Lord AUGUSTUS DRURIOLANUS OF LONG ACRE.
Mr. S.B. BANCROFT, who will take that of Lord HAYMARKET.
Mr. WILLIAM BLACK, who will in future be known as Lord SHEILA OF
THULE.
Messrs. SWAN AND EDGAR, who will assume the dignity, respectively,
under the titles of Lords PICCADILLY and REGENT's CIRCUS, and the
BEADLE OF THE BURLINGTON ARCADE, who will accept the honour with the
style and title of Lord BURLINGTON OF ARCADIA.
HER MAJESTY has also been further pleased to confer the dignity of
a Baronetcy of the United Kingdom on the following Gentlemen; viz.,
Messrs. ENO, SCOTT, BEECHAM, CARTER, LAMPLOUGH, and COCKLE.
HER MAJESTY has further been pleased to confer the honour of
Knighthood on several Gentlemen greatly distinguished for their
services respectively to Art, Literature, and Science, whose names,
however, it is not necessary to mention, but whose labours, had they
been rewarded with that financial success that attends the efforts of
a pushing and advertising tradesman would, doubtless, have earned them
the more becoming dignity of a Peerage.
