We are authorised to state that the doors of the Ex-
hibition will positively not be opened for the admission
of visitors earlier than nine o'clock on Thursday morn-
ing, and the Park gates will be opened at seven o'clock.
We are requested to state that all persons intending
to be present at the opening of the Exhibition to-morrow
(Thursday) will be
in morning dress, with the excep-
tion of those who will be in immediate attendance on
her Majesty.

Her Majesty has been pleased to give directions that
private carriages should be permitted to pass through
the Buckingham and Stableyard gates of St.
James's-park during the next four months, beginning
from the lst of May. We understand that the privilege
will not be extended to any public carriages; and that
they will be closed at such hours as may be found neces-
sary on those days on which her Majesty holds draw-
ing.rooms and levees.

ROYAL GARDENS, VAUXUALL.—Tbese time-
honoured gardens are announced to open with the "world's

fair," to-morrow night (Thursday), with a grand bal masque,
on a scale of extended splendour, and in celebration of the
inauguration of the Cr) stal Palace by her Majesty in person.
All that art could design, or capital accomplish, has this year
been effected by Mr. Robert Wardell, the director, to render
Vauxhall worthy not only of the patronage of our foreign
visitors, Ind of the public in general. On Friday the regular
season will commertce, and on Saturday Mr. Green will make
an ascent in that " mammoth" aerial machine, the great
Nassau balloon."

LONDON AND BLACKWALL RAILWAY.—The Com-
mittee on this company's Bill report the preamble for this
company's extension to Tilbury proved: that the proposed
capital is 280,000/. ; proposed loan, 93,000/. ; amount of
shares subscribed for new works, 231,45 /. ; and deposit
paid, 28,931/. ; the greater proportion of parties to the con-
tract being shareholders in the London and Blackwell.
The length of the extension is 19 miles, and branch to
Eastern Counties 1 mile. The Committee report that the
Bill authorises the company to purchase and use steam-
boats between Tilbury and Gravesend, and as the efficiency
of the railway as regarded the Gravesend traffic was neces-
sarily dependent on the working of the steam communica-
tion between that town and the railway terminus it was de-
sirable such steam-boats should be under the management of
the railway
.company, and the Committee were of opinion
that the restriction contained in 124th standing order ought
not to be enforced.

PROTECTIONIST DISSENSIONS.—We are assured
that notwithstanding the seeming harmony which exists
among the Protection party, their more recent councils
have been, on some points, characterised by a plentiful lack
of accord. We are ii idebted to one of themselves for the in-
formation that they are subdivided into two sections— one
section acknowledging, and the other repudiating, the out-
of- door leadership of Mr. George Frederick Young. We
have thus a George Frederick Young party, and an Anti-
George Frederick Young party, in the Protectionist ranks.
To such an extent, -we are told, is the feeling carried by the
antagonistic parties, that the Anti-Youngites made a bold
effort to prevent their hero's name being entered on the list
of speakers at yesterday's Protectionist demonstrations. Nor
were they altogether unsuccessful, for the pro-Youngites
were obliged to agree to a compromise—the terms being,
that they would ,a equiesce in their leader's exclusion from
the boards of Drury-lane, provided ho was permitted to e.iF.-
hibit on the platfo.nn at St. Martin's Hall, and to preside
at the dinner in the Freemasons' Tavern. The Anti-
George Frederick Young party assented, and so the matter
has, for the moment:, ended.—Advertiser.

MR. HAWES, M.P. AND BIS CONSTITUENTS.—The
Cork Examiner states that a requisition from the electors of
Kinsale has been forwarded to Mr. Hawes, calling upon him
to resign his seat in consequence of his vote in favour of the
second reading of thie Papal Aggression Bill.
ROYAL ITALI. OPERA.—His Royal Highness
Prince Frederick W illiam of Prussia honoured the perform-
ances at the Royal Italian Opera with his presence last even-
ing, occupying the Queen's box. In the suite of his Royal
Highness were Cap min Count Goeltz, aide-de-camp to the
Prince of Prussia; Colonel Fischer, military governor to
Prince Frederick William ; Lieut. de lleinz, aide-de-camp to
his Royal Highness; and Captain the Hon. Alexander Hood,
equerry in waiting on the Prince. The house was crowded.
