THE OPENING OF THE SEASON WILL TAKE PLACE
ON MONDAY, MAY 21, 1860.

The new Proprietors of this highly-popular and fashionable
~,e3ort are gratified in being able to announce to the patrons
7.;...51e5 tt enters pf the Gardens that extensive alterations,
,1-47...e:s of expense, have already been effected during the
lorecrod of their lessee-ship, which they trust will be
ed, as an earnest of the. spirit ;and enterprise which
.7 purpose shall charaeterisetheir management throughout
fr.
department.
Te early extension of the.- (iardens -forming a prominent
r‘u;', the4rnhum, they submit the present Programme of
idrovements and additions already effected, which they trust
conaideriblY enhance the usual attractions of this well-
4vuured'spot.
AN ENTIRELY NEW ORCHESTRA,
cologne dimensions and elaborateldecorations, has been
trec
..,„,_ted from the design of one of our most eminent local
Zr'altects, corresponding with which, in splendour and. unity
of style, will be found a Refreshment-room, and Arbours of
111(?ful simplicity will be interspersed throughout the grounds,
luantly illuminated with gas, to add to the convenience and
Mort of visitors.

214 e magnitude of the orchestra has necessarily led to the
Ipltzentation of the Band, which will comprise chosen per-
,,_34llsers of acknowledged talent and reputation, who will
„7truuentalise the most faronred operatic and other popular
"'"lsle, including the newest compositions. of the day.

AN ENTIRELY NEW AND EXTENSIVE
PLATFORM,

- -
:ftUrncted.upon improved principles, will replace the former
hey Which was found to be wholly inadequate to the requite-
flats of the numerous frequenters of the Gardens ; and the
7
14tgent stage tor Dancing will leave nothing to be desired by
7vvotaries of Terpsichore, as no Gardens in the United King-
-4:11 can boast of a Platform more admirably constructed or
°l'e efficiently illuminated.

THE PICTORIAL SUBJECT FOR THIS SEASON
WILL REPRESENT

THE DESTRUCTION OF POMPEII ;
v,,•
Is'.uciAg Views of the Ancient City, including the great
%lc "hie Xountain : the varied Scenery of Classic Italy. which
e Pencil of Cannaletti and the pen of Byron have immor-
i!otted, afford the most desirable objects for Colossal al Fresco
-'etures. The subject, and the consummate talent bestowed
40211 it by Mr. CRAWFORD and his numerous assistants, will
render
this Painting the highest class production which has
ever been exhibited in these Gardens.
The FIREWORK DISPLAY will exhibit unusual novelty
and brilliancy ; the overwhelming of Pompeii by the devas-
:ati, ng Mountain forming an admirable subject for effect and
-Paendour.
ADDITIONAL PYROTECHNIC EFFECTS will also be
irl)duced, cut:uprising the new FLOATING TEMPLE OF
the PATRON
on the Lake, and concluding with the Representation of
BAIRON SAINT OF ENGLAND, THE RENOWNED
▪ GEORGE.

The celebrated LAURA FAMILY and a talented Company
have been engaged, and will appear on the °Timing Night
%lid during the week in Ballets, Vaudevilles, and other
kntertainments.
