PO RTSMOUTH.

MAY 22.—The St. Vincent, 120, Admiral Sir Charles
Ogle, is still at anchor at Spithead. The flag will be re-
hoisted by the end of this month, or the• beginning of
the next. From the enormous bulk of the St. Vincent,
she is conspicuously visible from the Isle of Wight, and
the opposite Hampshire coast, and is an object of great
interest both to ♦isitors and to those " native here and
to the manner born."

Portsmouth bids fair to be unusually gay during the
Wbitsun-week. Both theatres, Landport and Ports-
mouth, will be open. At the Beneficial Society's Hall,
Magician Jacobs, so the bills call him, will exhibit his
wonders—in St. George's-square, a caravan on a very
large scale, calls public attention to its Androides.
Sarti's models are also to be submitted to the inspection
of the curious—and, though " last, not least in the dear
love " of those who like to sport a " light fantastic toe,"
two balls will be given. The first, which is in honour of
her Majesty's birthd,,y, will take place on Monday, at
King's Rooms, under the auspices of Major-General
Lord F. and Lady Fitzclaretce, Admiral Sir Charles
Ogle, Bart., Lord George and Lady Lennox, and other
members of the aristocracy. The second will be givcn
on Thursday, by Admiral Sir Charles Ogle, and on both
occasions there can be no doubt but all the rank, beauty,
' and fashion of Portsmouth and its vicinity, will grace
the enlivening salons with their presence. We must cot
King's Rooms are to be devoted to the aid of the Ports
mouth National Schools.
