The Manchester Papers received yesterday ion-
firm the previous accoonts of the return of the

industry. Indeed the public mind has been for
some time relieved from all anxiety •pan this sub-

re-establishment of perfect order and tranquillity.
The Treasury Journals appear to derive but a
melancholy satisfaction from this assurance, and
dwell upon the late discontents at Manchester,
as if they felt consolation for the loss of the
reality in preserving its memory. They may well

AQUATIC EXCURSION.

One of the most ludicrous exhibitions took place
on the River Thames, yesterday afternoon, that we
ever remember, it had been announced and
carded round the metropolis for some drys past, that
Mr. Usher, the clown at the Coburg Theatre. in.
tended, previous to the theatrical performeeice of
the evening, to make two excursions, one on
watri, the other on land; the aquatic excursion
consisted of a tub with four geese attached to it. to
go from Westminster Bridge to Waterloo Bridge.
The land one, a chaise drawn by four white tom
cats, from Waterloo Bridge to the Theatre. About
four o'clock, the tub being launched from the yard
of Mr. Nelson, the water bailiff, Mr. Usher imine.
diately seated himself in it. The geese were 'plea.
dilly decorated with various coloured ribliands,
but not tieing used to such confinement repeatedly
entangled themselves with each Whet, till the ad-
venturer was obligated to he towed down sonic

lance by a boat. On reaching his destinstiosi, a ge-
neral and loud hum took place. The poor geese
appeared. et this time, nearly exhausted with fa-
tigue. Of the latter excur• we can say hut lit-
tle; it was more defective thau the former. How.
ever, Mr. Usher's frieiide did not disappoint lout in
his ride, fur, on MAIN; his cats proving unruly, they
instautly mounted hire, chaise and all, on their
shoulder., and carried I • in triumph to the stage.
door of the Theatre, where he was landed without
the least injury.
The novelty of the scene caused a vast concourse
of persons to collect together; the river was com-
pletely covered with !oats; the hanks along the.
shore were crowded with people; Westminster and
Waterloo Bridges presented a grand and mogul&
cent appearance, from the immense number of
spectators who had stationed themselves upon them.
The road leading to the Theatre sod the New-Cut
was so thronged, that it was hardly possible for a
horse or chaise to ;Dais for some hours. We do not
remember to have observed, so numerous an assem-
blage collected on any porceding occasion, except-
ing at the time the Mace Regent, accompanied by
the Dukes of York and Wellington, opened Wu.
tellies-bridge.

We notice with much pleasure that the Academy
of Amiens hes proposed. as the subject of the
