AMUSEMENTS.

HEN7GLELL'S CIRQUE VARIETE, DALE-STREET.—The termi-
nation of an equestrian season worthy "the fame of Hengler',
is now fast approaching, and the extraordinary success
attendant upon the lengtbened efforts of the proprietor
has been duly appreciated by the public. Scarcely in the
days of the celebrated Ducrow, the great " maestro of the
ring," has it been our pleasing duty to notice more brilliant
entertainments, graceful " scenes of the circle," or a'tout
ensemble to have been deserving of support eciaal to that
of Mr. Hengler, which is shortly to close its present season
in the town of Liverpool. The true beauty and excellence
of all the artistes engaged in the various departtnents have
been " A 1." To retain the deserved popularity alrea,y
won, and carry with them the " golden opinion" of all
classes, still appears to animate the management; we,
therefore, are not surprised at the novelties daily
(or nightly) produced at this place of enter-
tainment. Perhaps the most successful of all
the " hits " has been the production of the grand pageant
of " Kenilworth Cdstle ; or, the Days of Qeeen Elizabeth,"

on the occasion of the proprietor's benefit on Monday
evening last. The glorious days of chivalry were there
gorgeously depicted in all the warmth of colouring, so that
nothing was left wanting to render the picture more
complete in all its accessories. The entire of the company
were " up " in their parts, as they have been in everything
produced, and vied with each other in efforts to give due
effect to the multitudinous details of the " Historical
Romany." During the present week the benefits of
Messrs. Powall, Bridges, &c., are announced, than whom
m )re talented, deserving, or pains-taking artistes can
scarcely be found in the profession; and upon each of
these occasions novelties,, " rich and rare," will be
produced.

Z )(LOGICAL GAUDEN3.-The annual gala of the Modern
Dcui Is took place at these gardens on Monday last, and,
notwithstanding the unfavourable state of the weather,
about tvvo thousand of the order mustered on the occasion
The dramatic company was a great attraction, and the
favourite and laughable farce of " Spring Gardens" was
performed, in addition to a host of other amusements..
TiAe weather has for some days past been unfavourable for
ow-door amusements, but it has, however, done more than
art coon have dons, and that is—put the gardens and
grounds in better order than we have seen them this
season, and they aline will amply repay a visit, to say
nothing of the various attractions concentrated there.

Sir G. Gamy suggested the postponement of any discus-
-81011 °Pm details till they got into committee.
The Souse having gone into committee, and the first
four clauses agreed to, the discussion upon the power
given by clause five to Boards of Guardians, to form them-
"lves into Burial Boards to provide burial grounds for
paupers, was renewed, and ultimately the clause was ne-
gatived -without a division.
Clauses to 15 inclusive were agreed with some verbal
altendments.

Clause 16, after some consultation, was modified by the
insertion of words limiting the powers of the Secretary of
State with regard to the making of regulations to com-
rnercial cemeteries.

Mr. Looxil KING moved a proviso, to the effect that
only one body should be buried in a grave in any burial
place within the metropolitan districts.
