HER MAJEsTv's BUCK HouNns.—ln consequence
of Good Friday. and Windsor military steeple chases occurring next
week, the Royal stag houndswill only have two meets. instead of
the usual number, which will take place on Monday anti Thursday.
The new number of hentley's ,ny (for April)
contains a paper which, at the present moment (when the attention
of whole nations is so forcibly directed towards India), will be read
with universal interest. It is enticed "The Scat of War; the Si".hs
and the Punjab," anti gives an excellent description of the kingdom
of Lahore, and a most interesting summary of the events which have
taken place during the last halt century. This favourite perloolical
also presents us with more of the amusing adventures of " Brian
O'Linn" (to real which has a similar effect to inhaling laughing gas).
This story is will worthy the great popularity Of the author of
"Stories of Waterlog." " Tipperary Hall" is also full of entertain.
ment pertaining to the great topics of the day. It contains some
very spirited songs. Where, for instance, shall we dud a better song
in its way than the one entitled " Who's for a Shy at the Siege of
Lahore, my Boys ?" This paper is evidently the prxtuction of men
of considerable talent. Everybody should read the '• Outpourings,"
which include lois of rare anecdotes of the late Oiled Liston. The
disclosures made in "Gaming, Gaming-h uses, and Gatnesters," of
the trickery resorted to to ensnare the unwary, are well calculated
to warn the y, ung and wealthy from plungim into a career which
invariably ends in ruin. Albert Smith's capital contributions -to
" Popular Zoology," 'are firll of spirit and humour. To add to the
attractions of Bentley, we are presented with an admirable portrait
of Flora "Macdona d (the Flora M`lvor so celebrated by Scott in
" Waverley") and a clever etching by Leach, i lustr,ting a beautiful
fairy story rendered i,nto English by Lady I)utT Gordon. This perio-
dicel well merits its increasing popularity.

TREMENDOUS EXPLOSION AT SHEFFIELD.- Yesterday
morning (Thursday), about two o'clock, the neighbourhood of Carver-
street, be ween Wellington-street and Button-lane, was thrown into
the utmost consternation by an explosion which shook all the houses
for some hundreds of yards round. On examination it was found
that some infernal machine had been placed under three privies, ad-
joining one of the two trough hulls 01 Mr. William Sanderson's ex-
tensive fork manufactory. The back windows of nine houses were
completely shattered, no less a number than twenty-four being
shattered by the exploded fragments 01 stone, &c. A !nick wall
was levelled with the ground, and considerable injury. done to the
hull and machinery. The explosio.t was heard not only in many
parts of the town, but for several miles round. The shock i❑ the
immediate neighbourhood is said to have resembled an earthquake.
Inspector Matthews was one of the first of the police on the spot,
and Mr. Raynor has ordered several men to examdne the ruins, with
a view of ascertaining the nature of the diabolical engine which had
been used to blow up the wheel Very fortunately no one was hurt.
Some suspicions are entertained as to the guilty party, who, we
hope, will be speedily brought to justice.—Doncaster Gazelle of
yesterday.
