MR. KEAN IN A NEW CHARACTER.—Mr. and
Mrs. Charles Kean departed by the Champion of the Sear,
.rum Liverpool, on a professional tour through our Southern
dependencies. As no clergyman happened to have taken
his psssage by that vessel, the eminent tragedian was pre-
vailed upon to read Divine service during the voyage. He
stipulated that he was not to be called upon to marry,
curisten, or bury any of his fellow-passengers during the
transit. He declined to relieve the captain of this portion,
of his official duties.—Corp. Paper.
ROYAL GALLERY OF ILLUSTRATION, 14, Regent-
street, Waterloo-place.--Mr. aid Mrs. German
Reed's new entertainment is erjoying a very prosperous
career and attracts very fashicnable audiences. These
clever artists are quite "at home" in their " Charming Cot-
tage." Ont of the simplest of plots, they contrive to excite.:
a lively and continued interest. Each impersonation, in-
deed, has its special attraction, success depending more
upon the ability of the performer than upon a sequence of
incidents arranged for dramatic eff ct. We understand.
there will be other visitors at the " aerating Cottage" next
Monday, the Sisters Pry having been prevailed upon to call'
at Windsor as they formerly came to Richmond. We have
little doubt these celebrated " Old Maids" will make them-
selves as agreeable in the one place as the other. Mr.
Parry's description of "Mrs. Roseleaf's Little Evening
Party," which he had the honour of giving before the Prince
and Princess of Wales, at the mansion of the Lord Cham-
berlain, continues to amuse the frequenters , f the Gailery.
We hear that-, at the close of their season, Mr. and Mrs,,
Reed contemplate a tour round the South coast.
PROPORTIoN OF CAVALRY TO INFANTRY.—
Napoleon laid it down as an axiom, that cavalry
should be to infantry as 1 to 4, giving however to France
only 1 to 5, on account of the mountainous nature of some
of its districts. To Italy the same great authority assigas
only Ito 13. This last statement completely upsets the de-
ductions of those critics who base on the small use made of
cavalry in the late camp signs in rugged, intersected Lom-
bardy their opinion that this arm has lost its importance in•.
war. Dr. Roemer says that the only real cavalry combat in
that campaign took place at Solterino. From this one
would be led to inter that only on that occasion did the
cavalry take an important part. He is in error. It was of
great service at Montebello, where eight squadrons of Pied-
montese cavalry by repeated charges delayed the advance of
Stadion till Furey could come up.
FRENCH AND ENGLISH PLEASURE SEEKERS.—
Speaking about excursion trains, yesterday, a
tamous railway director told me that in his opinion it
would be a loog time before the French would travel a lung
d,sta ce for pleasure. English people will do the most
eccentric mai uncomfortable things, out of which they get
an amount of enjoyment and happiness which no other
people in the world c uld realise. I cannot imagine a dozen
Frenchmen in all Pat is being persuaded to go to Dover,
land, and return to Paris six hours after, weary and sea-
sick. Yet English artisans will leave Londk,n and visit

Boulogne under such circumstances. I myself witnessed
an arrival of pale intelligent- looking Londoners at Boulogne,
who had come over on an excursion occasion. On landing
,rom a rough sea, a determined rain set in, Etna nothing
could be more gloomy than Boulogne and its associations
hat day. The excursionists broke up into groups and stood
under windy doorways, laughed, joked, and got tutu out of
this dreary damp misfortune. They got something to eat
at a very high price, bought a bottle of cheap (sandy (which
is made 'row imported Engish spirits), and embarked again
oa a rough sea for their native London. The bare narrative
of that excursion told to a Frenchman would shut up all
ideas of the repetition of such a trip in this country. How
are the French amusing themselves to-day? "1 hey are not
going tar off. If you stroll down to the Havre Railway
station at any morning hour you will find hundreds of really
well-dressed people, with a large proportion of the fair sex,
and some mothers with the whole family (geners.lly at most
two children, alter years of matrimonial felicity), taking
their places for one of the many pleasure gardens on the
banks of the Seine, within 20 minutes' railway of the capi-
tal. They will dine according to their means, for they know
exactly how and when to spend their inoney ; they will
throw ,henaselves on the grass and watch the caneiers and
eanotieres—tor am ngst the equipage ate sometimes ladies.
Later, the Parisian C ,ckney will assist at music and danc-
ing; and by 11 o'clock at the latest man and wile, and every
conceivable relation of "parties" that can possibly exist
between the sex, will Le t.oberly and quietly returning to
Paris. That is the sort of "out" the Parisians like. If,
be it known, Paris is from town now, it is iich, fashionable,
and forelen Paris—a class that has learned to travel since
the completion of railways, and who now go further away
from the capital than their provincial chateaux.—Paris
correspondent of the Alorning Post.
