NIBLO'N GARDEN.—If Niblo's elegant resort were not
more than half as elegant and half as attractive as it
is of itself, it would be filled to•night ; for he has taken
eare to make it almost impossible to keep out of it. The
usual attractions are there of course ; but there are more.

llerr Cline, professor of the poetry of Rope Dancing,
will exhibit all his marvelousness, and the best company
of eomedians now -playing together in the United 'States
are going to perform Yost Can't Marry your Grandmother,
in which we take it that Lambert, and Chapman, and
Miss Ayres, and Miss Petrie will astonish their grand-
children. Cline makes his terrific ascension from one
side of the ourden to the other, 300 feet. And there is
to be one of the most brilliant series of fire works ever
exhibited. We havu not room to enumerate them.

PA ILK TH E ATRE.— E!ssler plays one of her most
attractive characters and dances one of her most popular
(latices this evening. To secure her wonderful talents
tirr the celebration of our National Jubilee, the manager
has gone to immense expense. That it will be met with
a corresponding feeling of liberality on the part of the
public, we have no doubt. The house will be so crowded
that we advise all who wish to see Elssler perform to go
early in order to secure good seats.
The Bowery Theatre will celebrate the Anniversary
in great style. In the first place, a new romantic drama,
called The Corsair, from Lord Byron's beautiful
poem• of that name, .will be performed—Mr. Barry
in Conrad. The scenery is new, and exceedingly I.hati-
tiful and effective. To be followed by A Day after
the Fair, in which Mr. Holland, the very Prince of
comic actors, will divide himself into six sections,

and do all them to perfection. Sam Wax, Sukey Squall,
Bill Thompson Miss Dumplin, and Octavins Moonshine,
and Jerry, will each one of them be so done up that it
will be almost impossible to pick them apart. But
besides that there is to be the Black Ghost by John
Smith, and his black papoose, young Coleman, and,
above all, Dibden's Mother Goose, in which the Swiss
Brothers will appear. If the Bowery is not full to-
night it never will be.

Signor de Begnis offers strong attractions at his con-
cert to be given at New Brighton, which, added to the
charms of the trip, should ensure him a large audience.
Ile is assisted by Mr. liossowski, Mr. Ernst, Mr. and
Mrs. C. E. Horn, Mr. Timms, &c,

'rho Atlantic Garden, in Broadway, opposite the Bow-
ling-green, is one of the most convenient stopping places
for those who visit the Battery. Peers' Ice Creams will
be in demand, if the weather be not very unseasonable,
and we know not where a better article can be had ; in-
deed so pleasant and refreshing are they, that were it
not that some strict constructionist might have scruples,
we would perhaps recommend to Congress to keep a
supply on hand to cool the ardour of certain southern
members.

The Battery is under ordinary circumstances a cool
and pleasant retreat, but when the usually refreshing
breezes are laden with a villanous smell of brimstone
and a person is kept prancing • under a July sun to avoid
being burnt by fiery living serpents, or run over some
aid-de-camp hurrying in hot haste across the field, our
friends will find that the soda water and ice cream they
can obtain at the Battery Saloon, No. 13, State-strer3t,
acceptable and refreshing.
Till NEW NATIONAL PAINTINGS.-011 this new an-
niversary of our country's freedom, it may be consi-
dered little less than the positive duty of our good ci-
tizens to take their families to see those great paintings
of American victories, which are noi(virleoapnens, aitnat‘h•ererye
low charge, at the Lyceum, in Broadway. The subjects
are Yorktown, Lake and New
tine oil paintings, of 20 feet by 15 ; from the' a
of
three of the first artists in France. hey are consi-
dered in Europe as among the greatest. painting of the
age, and should not be neglected even if they were less
proudly identified with tins patriotic occasion. No ex-
hibition in the city is more worthy of the day, and of the people whose country they honour, and we shall be
disappointed in the taste and patriotic feelings of our
citizens, if these pictures do not form objects of all curio-
sity and laudable pride at this present annual festival.
THE GLORIOUS POURTIL—A part of this day we thiuk
could not be better spent than in viewing Home and the
Bay .of Islands, at Catherwood's- Rotunda. This is one
of, the most interesting exhibitions in the city, and
should be seen by citizens and strangers. The panora-
mas may be seen during the day and evening, when
they will be splendidly illuminated, and lectures given
free to visitors.
