"Let well enough alone" is a standard maxim
far
more profitable in the observance than in the breach.
A morning contemporary, whose flank, we are bound
to acknowledge, is seldom turned, would have better
consulted his own reputation for sagacity had he
borne in mind that salutary doctrine, as well as the
familiar dogma of the Dz•an of St. Patrick's, relative
to the effect produced by a perseverance in stirring
what is inodorous by nature. We were among the
many who perused with a smile of surprise an article
which served to fill the columns of the journal alluded
to not long before the opening of the Great Exhibi-
tion. On conning it over, a shrewd suspicion per-
vaded cur mind thataThe Times was, as the saying is))

The-Proprietorhas the gratification to announce that he has suc-
ceeded in engaging Mons. Jullien and the elite of his unrivalled
Vend, and that he will continue a short season with a grand Con-
ceit Monstre, including Herr Koenig, M. Collinet, Lavigne, L'An-
Weis, Mr. Lazarus, Mr. Jarret, and other eminent soloists. The
splendid bands of the Royal Artillery, 2d Life Guards, and Cold-
stream Guards will attend in full uniform, by the kind permission of
their respective Colonels, in addition to the effective band of this
establishment. b•ceir Solos by Herr Koenig, M. Collinet, Ciodi, and
Mr. Lazarus. Jullien's Exhibition Quadrille with increased and
novel effects ; also, Jullien's new Amazon Galop, suggested by
the splendid pioce of Sculpture in the Great Exhibition.
Representation of a gigactic modelled Panorama, painted by
the Messrs. Danson, representing the Temple of Janus in the Eternal
City, with a striking View cf the Colosseum, Palace of the Caesars,
gt,c. The Menagerie is both varied and extensive, including two gi-
lafree) two elephants, which- promenade the grounds, appropriately
caparisoned and attended. The band, composed of musi-
cians of first-rate celebrity, is conducted by Mr. Godfrey.
Moored on the lake is seen a real Chinese pleasure junk, with masts
end sails complete. Also Remington's aerial bridge, and various
novelties ; and at dusk will be given, on a scale of surpassing mag-
nificence, a representation of the Closing of the Brazen Gates of the
Temple of Janus, with (for the first time ever attempted) a grand
colossal transparent diaphonic panoptieon, shewlng the horrors of
war and the blessings of peace, terminating with a most brilliant
display of fireworks by Messrs. Southby ; and an allegorical tableau
of the arts and sciences, depositing their treasures at the feet of her
majeety Queen Victoria,
the whole forming the most gorgeous spec-
tads aver witnessed.
