Whitsuntide Amusements.

Whitsuntide has indeed come in with tho " sun," which

its " tide" fortols, albeit its occurrence, depending upon
Easter, is this year especially early, The country is in
its fullest of May beauty, and London was indeed tempted

" out of town." If the numerous lines of rail have dimi-
nished the passenger train° of down-the-river steamboats,
by supplying a readier, a cheaper, and a mere rapid means
of transit, they have widened the area of country avail% ble
to holiday• makers, and increased the excursionists to an
extent that the limited modes of egress of former times
would have rendered utterly incredible. The travellers
yesterday who availed themselves of all the great lines out
of London, may be counted by myriads ; and the great rural
attractions at Kew, Richmond, Kensington, Cremorne,
Chiswick, Sydenham, Rosherville, Woolwich, ?cc., were
crowded with pleasure-seekers, in holiday attire and with
pleasant faces, which bespoke the prosperity and happi-
ness of the millions, despite the too-numerous cases of
destitution and suffering which are ever-recurring in the
columns of the daily press. Yesterday was eminently a
people's festival, therefore quitting the pleasant fields, we
will return to the populous city, and briefly note what there
attracted the many.

At Drury-lane the splendid revival of " Henry the
Fourth," with Phelps's Falstaff, was repeated.
The Haymarket found no necessity for checking the
career of Mr. Sothein's latest assumption " David Garrick,"
supplemented by the classical elctravaganza, entitled
" Venus and .Adonis."

The Lyceum is closed until Saturday next, when Mr.
Fechter will produce's Hamlet," with something sensa-
tional in ghost effects,

Thompson receives the hand of Lucy as a reward for his
services, Mr. Murray as Waverley Brown, a timid, good-
natured, silly old man, acted with case and judgment, and
if we cannot coraPliment him upon being a first-rate artist,
at least, we can say, he is a very judicious one. He gave
us some nice little "bits" of acting now and then, which
makes us feel anxious to see hiss in a character of greater
importance than Waverley Brown,
