ASTLEY'S AMPHITHEATRE.
The celebra!ed 9uestrian spectacl Hems George and
the Dragon, with its splendid appots, still con-
tinues to attract large audiences to this world-renowned
amphitheatre. The exertions of Mr. Batty to add to
the glories gathered here by that favourite of genius,
the late Andrew Ducrow, richly deserve all the reward
they continue to meet with. We are the more rejoiced
at this, for no manager ever exceeded Mr. Batty in
his desire to secure novelty, at any price, for the enter-
tainment of the play-going public. The scenes in the
arena are as beautiful as ot old. To particularise where
Rol was good would to invidious; suffice it to say, all
deserved the applause they received. The drolleries of
Barry the clown and the politeness of Widdieomb added
much to the entertainments of a very pleasant evening.

GUIDE TO THE BRITISH MUSEUM.—A pocket guide •
book to the great national repository of the wonders of art
and nature has recently been published by Messrs. Cradock
and Company--a guide-book surpassing all others in com-
pactness, and yet equal for all ordinary purposes in complete-
ness. It is divided into five sections, conducting the reader
through all the departments of the British Museum in suc-
cession, and thereby enabling him to examine the whole
collection at a single visit. The first section. is purely intro-
ductory, historical, and generally descriptive, including re-
ference to the rending-room attached to the library. The
second describes the gallery of antiquities, together with the
adjacent chambers, comprising the Nimroud marbles, and
similarly recent additions. The third depicts the Elgin
collection. The fourth the Etruscan and Egyptian. The
fifth embraces the whole of the marvels in natural history
To the sight-seers of the metropolis the publication will be.
peculiarly acceptable.
Mr. Gordon Cumming was honoured on Tuesday
with a visit from their Royal Highnesses the Prince of
Wales and Prince Alfred, accompanied by their tutors, at
his South African Museum. The Princes seemed much
pleased with the collection during the hour they remained,
and particularly with the Bushman, who imitated the wild
denizens of the forest, and answered the questions addressed

OXFORD COMMEMORATION.
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON.—It is almost unnecessary
to statte that although the word " Cairraseiror--,ti,,n" is
lib rally extended to the first three or four days of the
present week, this prosrnt Wednemlay is the only
" Commemoration-day" properly so called. To day the
Enccrnia—ss nobody terms it—is held in ne theatre,
the usual oration is delivered by the public orator (Mr.
Claugbtcn scted as substitute for Mr. Mitchell), and the
successful competitors iu the arts of Latin and English
compe,ition recite their productions from their respec-
tive pulpits.
The intrinsic gaod.nature of the students, and
their readiness to commend wherever they felt com-
mendation was due, was strikingly illustrated in the
case of the Newdigate Poem, composed and recited
by Mr. Edwin Arnold. of University College. The
English Poem, we may remind cur reaciers, is the grand
feature of the day; a pause ,stewplace in the etni-
grations
of the theatre, ivilich after the first halt- hour
I are almost i4s frequent as the immigrations preceding,
and everyt,,,dy is not only expected to listen but listens
in realir

was no common'L -d the abortive attempt. It
which rol:ed through
she
•
seemed the gallery and ‘, nut a peal
inextinguishable, and which
even the leading dons'
Sanctioned by a sympatheticsmile. But es the poet progressed red beauties
of his composition became and
commencement changed
intaopparent, theof the
derision
a tribute of unfeigned
applause was ad-
miration. The first grand burst of
elicited
by the following. lines, referring
to
the presentiment
feast (the subject of the poem): guests at Belshazzlr's
" It seemed no summer-cloud of pas •
Could fling its shadow on so fair a show
woe
It seemed the gallant forms that feasted there
Were all too grand for woe, too great for care
Whence came the anxious eye, the altered tone,
The dull presentiment no heart would own,
That ever changed the smiling to a sigh
Sudden as sea-bird flashing from the sky?
It is not that they know the spoiler waits
Harnessed for battle at the brazen gates,
It is not that they hear the watchman's call
Mark the slow minutes on the leaguered wall;
The clash of quivers and the ring of spears
Make pleasant music in a soldier's ears."
The last two lines seemed especially to kindle the mili-
tary spirit of the undergraduates, and they beat the
gallery panels with approving delight. The following
passage had another cause for popularity:—
" Oh! ever, when the happy laugh is dumb,
All the joy gone, and all the anguish come-
-When strong adversity and subtle pain
Wring the sad soul and rack the throbbing brain—
When friends once faithful, hearts once all our own,
Leave us to weep, to bleed, and die alone—
When fears and cares the lonely thought employ,
And clouds of sorrow hide the sun of joy—
When weary life, breathing reluctant breath,
Ilath no hope sweeter than the hope of death—
Then the best counsel and the last relief
To cheer the spirit or to cheat the grief,
The only calm, the only comfort heard
Comes in the music of a woman's word—
Like beacon bell on some wild island shore,
Silvery ringing in the tempest's roar,
Whose sound borne shipward thro' the midnight gloom
Tells of the path, and turns her from her doom."
If there is any characteristic more prominent than
another in these genial assemblies, it is the spirit of gal-
lantry which everywhere seeks an opportunity to display
itself. When the undergraduates, before the commence-
ment of the proceedings, shouted out the names of various
public men, and then followed them with hisses or ap-
plause, the cry of " The ladies!" ever and anon was in-
troduced into the series, and always elicited a burst of
enthusiasm. What could be more appropriate to such
an assembly than the lines just quoted? The male part
of the audience gallantly adopted the sentiment, and the
ladies, by tacit smiles, showed that the compliment was
appreciated.

-The concluding lines of the poem brought it t) an
effective term;tmion—

" That night they slew him on his father's throne,
The deed unnoticed and the hand unknown :
Crownless and scentreless Belshazzar lay,
A robe of purple round a form of clay."
One is always atraid that in these formal displays of
poetic art one will be " bored" with an enormous moral
after the story is told. Hence, the bold manner in
which the fate of Belshazzar is brought within the com-
pass of four lines, and the moral is conveyed by the feet
itself, produced a most agreeable disappointment. It is
not, we believe, usual to quote these compositions, but we
understand Mr. Arnold's poem ranks far above the ave-
rage of University compositions, and as it is the theme
of general admiration we do not hesitate to depart from
precedent.
The other orations were " Avium Migrationes," in
Latin verse, by Mr. R. G. Wyndham Herbert, Scholar
of Balliol; " Centralization," aprose English essay, by
Mr. H. W. Sotheby, Fellow of Exeter; and a Latin
essay, " Qumnam ingenii virtutes ad histories scri-
bendas potissimum conducunt," by Mr. H. Parker, Fel-
low of Oriel. It is needless to state that all these were
received with loud applause. Under the head of " Uni-
versity Intelligence" we have given the list of honorary
Doctors' degrees conferred on this occasion. We need
only add that the name of Sir J. T. Coleridge was fol-
lowed by special applause, and that Sir Gardner Wil-
kinson was saluted by the undergraduates with the title
of " Old Hieroglyphics."
The crowd during the whole progress of the " Com-
memoration" was terrific. Visitors were admitted by
batches at a time, and as each new batch increased the
contents of the area many a man who fancied he had
good standing room, found himself jostled and. knocked
about, and cursing his hat as a most inconvenient in-
cumbrance. One gentleman who kept his hat on re-
ceived a storm of admonitions from the undergraduates'
gallery, but, certainly, if the sin was great, the tempta-
tion was great also.
The Bishops of Oxford, London, and Exeter were
among the illuqtrissimi of the assembly, as well as three
or four young noblemen in full University costume.
A balloon, was to have gone up from an inclosure in
the vicinity of' the Taylor Institution, and although the
locality was devoid of every species of convenience, a
rather high charge was made to witness the sight. The
tempting handbills drew together a vast number of
gownsmen and citizens, who when they entered the in-
closure were first regaled with the aspect of a huge half-
inflated silk bag, which, without attempting to raise itself
from the ground, rocked about in all directions, and as
it perpetually threatened to bury the visitors, was much
more of a nuisance than a diversion. At last a rumour
was spread that there was not sufficient gas to raise the
balloon, and that therefore it must gu up some other
time. Not a hiss, not a groan, not a murmur was heard,
but the assembly walked off, rather more satisfied at the
joke of going to see a balloon which did not rise than
they would have been:at an actual ascent.
At four o'clock the concert came cif in the midst of
the other amusements of the day.

Sir,—Your circular letter being an address to your
constituents, has been forwarded to me, and was, no
doubt, so sent from the fact of my having on each °pos.
sion of your election given you ray vote, and your cause
my hearty support, which;l am anxious to do again, pro-
vided your reply to my interrogatories should be satis-
factory. As the bishops and clergy of the church of
which I profess myself a member have been degraded,
and every loyal Roman Catholic insulted by the passing
of a penal Act of Parliament during the session of last
year, I em naturally anxious, in common with my co-
religionists and brother electors, to know whether you
would not only support the passing of a measure to re-
peal that contemptible Act of Parliament, but to repeal
every other penal measure which restricts the complete
religious freedom of the Roman Catholic? I shall re-
serve to myself the right to make public any reply you
may think proper to make to my application, and I may
eicl, that on it will depend not only my vote, but those
of many of my friends, if not of every Catholic elector
in the city of London.—l have the honour to be, Baron,
your obedient humble servant,

J. PACE.

New-court, 21st June, 1852.
Sir,—l have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of
your note of the 18th inst., and to assure you that I con-
tinuo as warmly attached to the Principle of religious
equality, asserted in my return to Parliament, as when
I first appealed in '47 to the suffrages of my fellow-
citizens.

I beg you to believe me as strongly opposed as you
can desire to penal restrictions of the religious freedom
of all sects, and that, if successful, I should support
such measures only as are in accordance with that prin.
am, Sir, your most obedient faithful servant,
L. DE ROTEteiCHILD.
