THE CREMORNE BAL MASQUE.
The

most brilliant fete that has ever been given in
those gardens, or perhaps in any other place of al fresco
~ligateeernet, took place last evening to the unqualified
ht of an immense assemblage. The gardens were
haveuad with the most tasteful splendour, and we
never seen a more striking collection of elegant
ter°asottirdtnineasityhan were displayed on this occasion. An ex• was excited by the marvellous
feat performed by the Italian Brothers, Le Saut de
Rivierc, and the air resounded with plauds this un-
equalled specimen of gymnastic daring. That fireworks
Were of peculiar excellence, and a universal call was made
for Mortrana who was well deserving of the honour.
bancing was kept up with the utmost spirit, nor could
that© be possibly congregated a more joyous throng, or
one, it is scarcely necessary to say, more unexception
ably orderly, for the decorum invariably observed in
Crernorne Gardens is proverbial. Bosisio's orchestra
'was kept in continual requisition by the votaries of
Terpsichore, while the celebrated Hungarian band played
a selection of their most admired pieces. A t tet o'clock
the circus was thrown open free, and the enjoyment of
the spectators at the achievements of its powerful troupe
of artistes was unbounded.
