~CREMORNE GARDENS.—Yesterday there was a grand
fete and entertainment given by the spirited proprietor of
this popular place of amusement, with the object of placing
before the lieges of the present day a picture of the celebrated
Ranelagh Gardens, the head-quarters of London life and
amusement a hundred years ago. As the announcement of
the gala intimated, there were the same costumes worn, and
the same songs, music, dances, games, and general entertain-
ments that in those days used to draw the elite of fashion,
and lovers of fun and frolic, from every quarter of the great
metropolis. In the large pavilion in the grounds there was
laid out a substantial breakfast, for those who chose to avail
themselves of the more solid advantages of the entertain-
ment, while in every part of the gardens were to be seen
happy groups engaged in dancing on the. green, in archery,
rifle shooting, bowling, and similar exhihrating amusements.
At the same time we observed "sturdy chairmen" busily
engaged with sedan chairs in carrying ladies and gentlemen,
dressed in the picturesque costume of the early_ part of the
18th century, to various parts of the garden. Nor were the
invisible poet—a son of the muse, whose responses, like those
of the ancient oracle of Delphos, were heard but not seen—
or the gipsv fortune-teller in the centre of the maize, ne-
glected. In short, nothing was left undone to afford every
enjoyment to the large and respectable company assembled
on the occasion. The entertainment wound up by a splendid
display of fire-works and a grand ball. At one period of
the evening there could not have been less than five thousand
persons present, and we are bound to observe they all ap-
peared to conduct themselves with exemplary decorum.
EXTRAORDINARY JOURNEY.—One of the most extra-
ordinary journeys we ever heard of is that of a German,
named Dr. Barth, who arrived at Alexandria, by land, from
Tunis, on the 16th June. He was brought in wounded upon
a camel, accompanied by his servants and some Bedouins.
At seven days' distance from this city he was assaulted by
five Arabs, three of them on horseback, and wounded by a
ball in the thigh. Ilis Tunisian dragoman also was wounded
in the shoulder. It is very extraordinary that a man should
run the risk of passing through a desert country, infested
by assassins, armed with only one gun and a few pistols, al-
though he had seven persons in his suite.—Malta Paper.
LAUNCH OF A NEAPOLITAN MAIL PACKET'.—Yester-
day afternoon a very superior iron steam-ship, named the
Vesuvius, and intended for the Neapolitan Steam Navigation
Company, was launched from the iron ship building yard of
Messrs. Ditchburn and Mare, Blackwall. Her length be-
tween perpendiculars is 180 feet ; keel for tonnage, 164 feet
4 inches; extreme breadth, 26 feet; and depth in hold, 15
feet; tonnage, 591 tens; and engines fitted by Blaudslay.
