CREMORNE GAL DENS.
The advanced season of the year, bringing with it
as it does cold and damp evenings, and the rapidly
increasing shortness of the days, have at length put a
atop to out-door amusements. The season at Cremorne
for the summer of 1852 may, therefore, be considered
as closed. After the great and successful efforts put
forth last year, under the stimulus of the Great Exhi-
bition, it might have been thought a task of no ordi-
nary difficulty to maintain even the attractions of the
previous season, much more to surpass them by the
introduction of new and diversified amusements. The
success of last year, however, has, it appears, only
proved an incentive to renewed exertions on the part
of the proprietor, which were evinced at the opening
of the present season by the additional development
of the natural and artificial beauties of the grounds,
us well as by the numerous additions to the floral
attractions, fountains, vases, statues, and other
sculptured embellishments. Neither has the ma-
nagement, in other respects, disappointed the expec-
tations thus held out. The excellence of the
Cremorne band is well known. The careful selections
and well-adapted compositions of Bosiaio, who has
admirably presided over this department, deserve
special communication. Of the theatrical amusements,
the new Spanish ballet, Le Barbier de Cadiz, may
be said to have enjoyed the preference of the public,
from the richness of its comic humour and the variety
of incident which it presented, although the splendour
of the scenery in Azurine will not readily be for-
gotten, any more than the excellent dancing of Milano
and the Cushnies will be easily excelled. In the
selection of performers for the Cirque the greatest
talent available was obtained, and the crowds of
visitors who nightly presented themselves proved that
there was nothing to be &Lind fault with or wanting
in this branch. A highly interesting variation in the
evening's amusements has throughout the season been
found in the Kafir exhibition, comprising two men,
with a female and a child. To attempt a description
of the numerous brilliant fetes which have taken place
during the past summer is needless. The marked
success which has attended those held in aid of the
various metropolitan charitable institutions fur-
nishes the best proof that nowhere are there more
ample resources and opportunities afforded for re-
plenishing funds and recreating friends than
at Cremorne. The spectacle of balloons has
been rendered more important this year
than they have ever before been by the
engagement of M. Poitevin, he having produced the
largest and best-constructed balloon in the world.
Although the introduction of animals was a mistake,
it was quite evident that the selection of the first aero-
naut of the day gratified thousands of first-class visi-
tors, and realised that which had only been previously
attempted in England, his intrepid wife having effected
four parachute descents in perfect safety. A new fea-
ture (for Cremorne) remains to be noticed, and one
that in its arrangements and carrying out reflected as
much credit upon the management as it afforded plea-
sure to Mr. Simpson's numerous friends—we allude
to the bal masque for his benefit, which we must re-
gret had not taken place earlier, as it was acknow-
ledged to be the only drawback to a fete which was
vastly superior to anything of the kind lately pre-
sented to the public.
In taking our leave of Mr. Simpson and his popular
property for the recess, we feel most happy to be able
to congratulate him upon an annually increasing
amount of distinguished patronage, a patronage which
is bestowed, because deserved, and which we feel
convinced will continue to increase so long as libe-
rality and punctuality are the marked characteristics
of Cremorne.

DUBLIN, MONDAY EVENING.---.THE VACANT
BIBROPRIC.—The Mail of this evening says, there is
reason to believe that the doubt that has existed since
the death of the late Bishop of Meath as to who should
be his successor has been terminated in favour of Dr.
Singer, Regius Professor, and Archdeacon of Raphoe.
A letter from Limerick, dated last night, states that a
respectable farmer was brutally murdered on the pre-
vious evening. The victim's name was Shine, a tenant
of the Earl of Dunraven. The unfortunate man's only
crime was that ho had the temerity to take some land
on the adjoining estate of the Rev. William Waller,
from which some people (supposed to be implicated in
the present brutal murder) had been removed. Seven
persona have been arrested on suspicion of being impli-
cated in the foul deed.

grounds between 11,000 and g 12,000 spectaators. The pre-
sent match, which caused the greatest interest in sport-
ing circles, was made some time since in consequence
of a challenge from Levett, who had a short time before
had the championship wrested from him, in conse-
fnience, as he stated, of his being, on the day of the
