Horticultural Gardens, and therefore close upon the

Exhibition Beall. Its length is to be just three•quarters
of • mile, and it interferes with none of the views
in the gardens, as it is carried across at • uoi•
form level of 12 feet below the suntaoe. It passes beneath
the carriage drive and Botten•row by insane of two shod
tunnels. The total width of the roadway is to be 40 feet,
of whkh about eight will be devoted to • footway on one
aids. Both sides of the cutting will be formed of gently
eloping banks of turf, and none of the grown timber will
be interfered with. By this short route a circuit of two
miles is saved on the eastern side, and a mile and • quarter
on the western. The cost of the whole road is estimated

at ()sly 35,0001.,1 the Commissioners al Public Worta under-

have been subscribed for. So far, therefore, this most
difficult question as to thoroughfare" has been in a great
measure solved, for the road is to be opened for traffic by
the let of May, or, if from aoy unforeseen canine it is not
complete by that time, Yr. Cowper guarantees the use of

We believe, however, that the road will be open in time,
and that it will not be long before it fully remunerates its
spirited promoters.
Yesterday the agents for the French exhibitors applied to
the West It iddkosx Water Company to supply water for
the chief fountain in the French Court at the rate of 40,C00
Allow an hour. It must be a fountain of very unusual size
and power to require such • supply u this, which, at the per
minute rate of throw, amounts to one-fifth of the whole
downpour of water from the great cascade in the Michell-
tural Gardens. Bet all that is heed of the French mope.
rations show them to be undertaken on the most magnifi.
cent and costly scale.
The season tickets are selling rapidly, and the sale of the
five guinea admissions is as 3 et almost SI great is the sale of
those at three guineas.
The arrangements (says the Times) for the musical por-
tion of the programme to be gone through at the opening
are fast adnnoing towards completion. It will be recol-
lected that at an early period the commissioners invited

&Soli irayediair, Lahr, sad Verdi each to write a march
for the ocessium, sai smaimily the invitation was amepted
by all but the but-naisted artist. Dr. Sterndsle Ben-
nett has also been invited to set to musk some words to
be written for the eceasion by the Poet Laments.
Subsequently, Mr. Ocala was invited to undertake the mu-
sical &mansions* sad to waded the music at the opening
on the Lt of May. Mr. Onsta has accepted the invitation
of the commiesionens; sad since then attention has been

given to the extent eithe orchestra which would be re-
quired to render the opssieg worthy cif the occesioe. After
Intl consideration it has been determlosd to employ a mu-
vial force of no lees then 1,800 performers, of whom 403
will be instramentalistn, via., 240 stringed instruments and
180 wind inebraments, the kip number of the
latter being required for M. Anber's march, which
is almost entirely written for wind instruments. Of the
1,400 choral singers, about 500 will be taken tram the
principal choral societies and choirs throughout the coun-
try ; the remainder, with the exception of • few of the
peinelpl grehmional eliontlists, will be amateurs from the
thtael Hermeeto Society and other carefully selected
1101110111. The entire working anangententa for the orchestra,
midst the direction of Hr. Costa, have been confided to
the Sacred Harmonic Society.
An extensive and appropriate orchestra will be erected for
the erase aelimaity partly under the eastern dome near
the intersestkm of the nave and transept.
