DOLMAN.

With this number we see the last of Dolman's
Magazine. In noticing it, we bid farewell to an old
favourite. An announcement tells us that the publi-
cation is henceforth incorporated with a contempo-
rary, appearing weekly and monthly under the name
of the Orthodox. At the close of the last instalment
of Dolman, we find a very remarkable paper, evi-
dently penned by some remarkable person, headed
" Prince Doria and the Roman Revolution." The
argument of the contribution is a disclaimer of any
connexion or sympathy whatever between Prince
Doria, the son-in-law of the Earl of Shrewsbury, and
the Red Republicans of Italy. It is a communica-
tion demanding perusal. The remainder of the con-
tributions are of average ability.

HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE,
Madame Sontag repeated last night her character
of Linda, in Donizetti's Linda di Chamouni—the part
chosen by her for her re-appearance before a London
audience. In the " 0 luce di quest anima," and the
rondo at the close of the opera, she renewed the en.
thusiasm which attended her first performance. The
first was redemanded, but the vocalist did not respond
to the encore until she repeated, with Gardoni, the
duet immediately following. This was exquisitely
sung by both artists. The finale was also rapturously
encored. The rest of the cast of the opera was the
same as on the former occasions of its representation
this season.

ROYAL GARDENS, VAUXHALL.
(ANOTHER ACCOUNT.)
On Wednesday night the Great Nassau Balloon
ascended once more from the Royal Gardens. We
were curious, like others, to behold this mighty aerial
navigator starting for another excursion, when its
exte powersnt. were Abe aubt o

aeronaut, Young Hernandez, the celebrated eques-
trian, Professor Risley, Mr. Rush (who accompanied
Mr. Green on many former occasions), together with
a considerable number (we have understood in all
fourteen), occupying two separate cars, took their
seats. In a few minutes the cords were slipped and
the stupendous machine soared majestically aloft,
amidst the cheers of thousands of spectators
inside the gardens, and an immense crowd
outside. Indeed, such was the interest which
the balloon excited, in consequence of the late acci-
dent, that the bridges and both banks of the river
were crowded with spectators. On this occasion the
Great Nassau and the veteran aeronaut sustained
their reputation. It descended at Sydenham, about
nine o'clock, and about ten the company in the
gardens were astonished to behold the return of the
voyagers delighted with their excursion. The theatre
was literally crammed, and Hernandez was greeted
by a delighted audience with immense applause. His
riding was certainly of surpassing excellence. It
seemed as if he caught new spirit from the
high region from which he had just re-
turned. The fire-works were also of extraordinary
splendour and variety, the colour and devices being
gorgeous and beautiful in the extreme. But the in-
troduction of a new rocket (the Vauxhall asteroid
rocket) which by some extraordinary device remains
suspended in the air, emitting varied light, and re-
sembling stars, seemed. to delight the company, and
called forth most rapturous applause. They seem
quite a novelty in the pyrotechnic art, and we under-
stand are for the future to be exhibited exclusively at
Vauxhall. They are to be projected from the balloon
during the night ascent to take place this evening
(Friday), and we have no doubt will constitute a
most effective display.

at Holland-park and Willis's Rooms will hear with much
regret that Mr. Bushman (formerly sergeant in the
