Aunt Polly was the first away, closely attended by Selim,
My Hobby, Terror, Chassour d'Afrique, and Redan, in the
order we have given them. They ran thus to the Gros-
venor turn, when the leader gave way, and her place was
taken by Selim, who, with Terror at his quarters, came
into the straight several lengths in advance of Redan, who
had been gradually making up his lost ground. At the dis-
tance Osborne brought up Redan, who had both his horses
safe at the enclosure, and won very cleverly by half a
length. Selim defeated Terror by three lengths for second ;
a bad fourth.

The two favourites got away together, and ran nearly
abreast into the straight, when Gulnara on the inside ob-
tained a slight advantage, which she retained to the end,
and won a fine race by a neck. A like distance separated
the second and third, and a length and a half separated

the third and fourth.
The winner was spiCt-teri

DUBLIN, MAY 11.

A few faint notes of discord have mingled with
the jubilant strains in which the Dublin press has
celebrated the opening of the International Exhibi-
tion. Some of the journals complain that the Prince
of Wales drove to the Exhibition Palace in a close
carriage, thus disappointing the multitudes who
waited to see him and to cheer him as he passed.
They describe the eager crowds that thronged the
leading thoroughfares, the large flags that waved
from windows and housetops, the number of private
carriages, cabs, and jaunting cars filled with sight-
seers along the principal streets, the windows and
balconies .crowded with ladies and gentlemen, the
long line of vehicles of all sorts in the park, stretch-
ing from the Viceregal Lodge almost down to the
Dublin gate, all waiting for the Prince, who was ex-
pected to come forth in an open carriage, to be looked
at and applauded while passing slowly on his way to
the Exhibition. But the patient multitude were bit-
terly disappointed. The Prince, hoping for better
weather, did not start till an hour beyond the time
he was expected. At length the military outriders
announced the approach of the royal iarty. It occu-
pied four carriages, the first two of which were
occupied by the attendants of the Prince of Wales
and the Lord-Lieutenant, and the two latter by the
Prince of Wales, the Lord-Lieutenant, the Duke of
Cambridge, the Prince of Leiningen, Major-General
Sir G. Brown, Commander of the Forces, and
Major-General Ridley. A numerous escort of the
10th Hussars (the late Prince Consort's regiment),
under the command of Colonel Elrington, preceded
andfollowed the Royal carriages, which were driven
with such rapidity that almost before the Prince
was recognised he was gone, and the cheers that
were bursting forth enthusiastically died away before
.they had gathered strength. But heads were unco-
vered, hats and handkerchiefs were waved, and loud
huzzas followed the cortege as it passed rapidly
along from the dense multitude lining the streets
and crowding the balconies and windows. The
arrangements that led to the disappointment have
been severely censured. The Prince, however, came
to perform a special duty on behalf of the Queen,
not to enjoy an ovation which would be felt to be
unseasonable when a telegram might reach him at
any moment announcing the death of the King of
the Belgians. Happily,
nothing has occurred to
mar the effect of the royal visit. There was in the
city yesterday but one feeling about the inaugural
ceremony and about the Prince's language andbear-
ing. That feeling was one of intense gratification.
All classes alike exult in the magnificent display of
May 9, which will be long marked in our calendar
as one of the proudest and most auspicious in the
history of the country.
The best face was put upon everything when the
Exhibition made its first public appearance, but
yesterday it was again in deshabille, like a lady the
morning after a ball. Some of the decorations were
removed ; men were engaged in hanging pictures ;
the exhibitors were completing their arrangements
and dressing their cases artistically—thefew of them
who were able to resist the temptation of going to
the review in the park. It will require some weeks
to adjust everything, so that the committees and
exhibitors may repose and admire the work of their
hands, or enjoy what they have all done so much
to deserve—the admiration of the public.
The Exhibition was open yesterday for the first
time to ordinary visitors, the charge being ss. The
weather was wet and gloomy, and the sculpture
and pictures were seen under unfavourable circum-
stances. The committee have arranged with the
railway companies to organise excursions, and
parties with excursion tickets, living 20 miles
fromr Dublin,ne r
willav be admitted at half-price. A
lgc, number availed themselves of these an
oppor-
tunities yesterday, and, among others, about 200
persons from the Isle of Man, who were admitted at
2s. 6d. each. The organ is still unfinished, and in
the various departments the resources of the Exhi-
bition are but partially developed.
Visitors coming into the building for the first
time hasten through the courts, and rest satisfied
with a view of their contents, postponing
a more
and critical study of the art trea-
blierids'usr-eolyye
trea-
sures collected for their instruction. The sculpture
placed in the pillared ball, opposite the principal
entrance from Earlfort-terrace, is the first to arrest
attention. The general arrangement of the statues
andpictures has been intrusted to Mr. Henry Doyle,
Exhibitionwho

asimilar duty so creditably in the
1863. Lord Southwell, Mr. Kirk, and
Mr. Mulvany render valuable assistance in this
work, and are indefatigable in their exertions. In
the group of statues are many works of exquisite
beauty, but there are two which at once arrest at-
tention and extort admiration—" The Sleeping

all 'the statues in this court, contributed by the
natives of lands where the fine arts were naturalised
thousands of years ago, the two finest statues should
be the productions of American artists. But they
have both received their inspiration under Italian
skies, in presence of the great models of ancient
Greece and Rome. llawthorne's description, in the
" Transformation," of the Faun of Praxiteles has
been quoted as in a great measure applicable to this
masterpiece of Miss Homer. Mr. Hawthorne
writes :

" The Faun is the marble image of a young man having
his right arm on the trunk or stump of a tree ; one hand
hangs carelessly by his side; in the other beholds the frag-
ment of a pipe or some such sylvan instrument of music.
His only garment—a lion's skin, with the claws upon his
shoulder—falls halfway down his back, leaving the limbs
and entire front of the figure nude. The form thus dis-
played is marvellously graceful, but has a fuller and more
rounded outline, more flesh and less of heroic muscle than
the old sculptors were wont to assign to their types of mas-
culine beauty. The character of the face corresponds with
the figure ; it is most agreeable in outline and feature, but
rounded and somewhat voluptuously developed, especially
about the throat arid chin ; the nose is almost straight, but
very slightly curves inward, thereby acquiring an inde-
scribable charm of geniality and humour. The mouth,
with its full yet delicate lips, seems so nearly to smile out-
right that it calls forth a responsive smile. The whole
statue conveys the idea of an amiable and sensual creature,
easy, mirthful, apt for jollity, yet not incapable of being
touched by pathos. Miss Hosmer's Faun is in a reclining
position, and is represented just at the moment when he is
dropping asleep—his left arm fells carelessly over the
Atmap Aft tree, iwainet the loirettie444.4oB-leep.k
ing ; the head, thrown back, rests on his left shoulder, the
legs are crossed, and the right hand lies upon the calf of
the left leg, from which it appears to be gradually slipping
as the muscles become more and more relaxed under the in-
fluence of sleep. His sylvan pipe has fallen from his grasp,
and this, with a bunch of grapes, an oaken staff, and a
lizard crawling round the stump of the tree, form appro-
priate accessories to the figure of the sportive and frisky
Faun. Beside the Faun is seated a baby Satyr, full of fun
and mischief, who is busily intent on tying into a knot the
tail attached to the lion's skin that constitutes the Faun's
only covering. This is a capital little figure, full of life,
truth, and vigour."

The other statues, most admirable for their power
of expression, and their delicate chiselling, are the
" Camilla" by Pandiani, of Milan ; " The Woman
taken in Adultery," by Magni, of the same city,
and his " Singing Girl ;" and Mr. Kirk's statuette
of " Sappho." The most striking work in the col-
lection is the colossal statue of Pius IX., writing the
rescript establishing the dogma of the Immaculate
Conception. It stands in the Great Hall, nearly
facing the dais, and at a distance His Holiness
seemed to be giving his benediction to the Prince
of Wales, or praying for the success of the Exhibi-
tion. Most of the statues come from Italy ; very
few are the works of British artists.

There are three picture galleries, one devoted to
the ancient masters, one to the modern English
school, and one to foreigners. In the last, which
is the gallery over the statuary, there are choice
pictures from Italy, Spain, France, Germany, and
Belgium. The British school is placed in the smaller
concert-room to the north of the Central Hall. It
contains a larger number of celebrated works, such
as Alulready's " The Wolfe and the Lamb," " The
Last In,"—a village schoolmaster receiving with an
ironical bow a schoolboy who has come in late ;
" The Village Buffoon," "A. Cottage:lnterior," and
" First Love." These are all remarkable for their
admirable discrimination of character, delicate
humour, wonderful drawing, and glowing colour-
ing. There are two pictures by Mr. Maclise,
" Noah's Sacrifice," and " Malvolio and the
Countess," but neither is a good example of the
artist's powers. There are three of Leslie's
finest works—" Sancho and the Duchess," " Uncle
Toby and the Widow Wadman," and " Les
Femmes Savantes—Trisotin reading his Sonnet."
Wilkie, Turner, Danby, Landseer, Constable, Egg,
Roberts, Herbert, Philip, Leighton, Cooke, Ward,
Stanfield, Thomas, Anthony, Mulvany, Elmore,
Knight, Goodall, O'Neill, Hunt, Hughes, and
Wallis, are among the artists whose works adorn
this gallery.
Among the exhibitors is the venerable Lord
Gough, who has lent the following interesting
articles :

98 A.—Baton of Field-Marshal Viscount Gough, K.P.,
G.C.8., and K.S.I.
99 A.—Collar and Badge of the Order of the Star of

100 A.—Sword—scabbard covered with green velvet, and
mounted with gold, set with rubies and emeralds ; gold
bosses of waistbelt inlaid with diamonds, rubies, and
emeralds ; sword knot and tassels decorated with pearls.

Punjab.
101 A.—Dagger—Damascus blade, sheath elaborately
enamelled in colours. Presented to Viscount Gough by
Rajah Shore Singh, Punjab.
102 A.—Model, in marble and mosaic, of sarcophagus of
Noor Mahal, wife of Shah Jehan, Emperor of Delhi. From
original in the Jay Mahal, Agra.
103.—Model, in silver, of the Kootab Minar, Delhi.

Yesterday the attractions of the military review
by the Prince quite overpowered those of the Exhi-
bition. It was to be held at 11 a.m., but in conse-
quence of the rain it was postponed till 3 o'clock.
The streets of Dublin seemed almost deserted, and
there was scarcely a cab or car to be found at any
of the stands. •

The following regiments were assembled on the
plain about 2 o'clock, the sth Dragoon Guards, under
the command of Lieutenant-Colonel Somerset J.
E. Calthorpe ; the 10th Hussars, under the com-
mand of Lieutenant-Colonel V. Baker ; the 11th
Hussars, under the command of Lieutenant-Colonel
C. C. Fraser, V.C. ; the C and E Troops Royal
Horse Artillery, under the command of Colonel C.
S. Henry ; the 29th, under the command of Lieu-
tenant-Colonel L. Farrington ; the 41st Regiment,
under the command of Col. J. E. Goodwyn, C.B. ;
the Ist battalion 60th Royal Rifles, under the com-
mand of Lieut.-Col. J. P. Redmond ; and the 78th
Highlanders, under the command of Colonel C. C.
M'lntyre, C.B. The troops were drawn up in line
in open order, extending right across the Fifteen
Acres. The Prince of Wales, who wore his uniform
as colonel of the 10th Hussars, rode across from the
Viceregal Lodge about three o'clock, accompanied
by the Duke of Cambridge, the Lord-Lieutenant,
and the Prince of Leiningen, General Sir George
Brown, Major-General Ridley, &c., and a numerous
and brilliant staff. On the arrival of their Royal
Highnesses a royal salute of 21 guns was fired, the
bands of the various regiments playing " God Save
the Queen." After the Duke of Cambridge, his
Excellency and suite had passed down the line, the
troops were put through a variety of evolutions by
Sir George Brown.
The tremendous charges and signal victories
which marked the varying fortunes of the day are
described in the morning papers as vividly as if all
had been real. Happily there was no accident
during the day. When the sham fight was over,
and the Prince of Wales had again taken his posi-
tion before the flagstaff, the whole of the troops
marched forward in parade order with bands play-
ing and colours flying, and so terminated the pro-
ceedings. His Royal Highness then proceeded, ac-
companied and escorted as before, to the Viceregal
Lodge, amid the most cordial cheers of a vast
throng, who were, with difficulty, restrained from
breaking all bounds, and rushing forward to make
their greeting more emphatic. Another royal
salute was fired as the Prince was leaving the
ground. The regiments then marched back to their
respective quarters. The clouds, which for the
half-hour previous to the termination had looked
most portentous, commenced a heavy downpour of
rain while the last salute was being fired, and
hastened not & little the departure of civilians, as
well as soldiers, for their homes. The day passed
off pleasantly, and the greatest good order and good
temper prevailed. The review concluded at half-past
5 o'clock.
