ROYAL ALHAMBRA PALACE.—A new feature has
been added to the attractions of this favourite place of amuse-
ment in the shape of a domesticated and educated hippopota-
mus. Mr. E. T. Smith, the enterprising manager, has, at a
large expense, procured this wonderful specimen of the am-
phibious world. The animal is not yet two years and a half
old, and stands about three feet high. The keeper has it
entirely under control, and can make it do whatever he
pleases. It follows him about like a dog, and lays down and
fondles with him in the most docile manner. During the
exhibition the keeper opened its mouth, and put his head
completely within its huge jaws, after which he took it round
and made it open its mouth several times to show the
audience the interior. After making the creature go through
various performances, which showed its tractability, he
mounted its back and rode off in triumph, amidst general
applause. _

REVIVAL OF CAMBERWELL FAlR.—Yesterday
morning, at a very early hour, the inhabitants of that part
of the Camberwell New-road near the Lambeth County
Court were aroused by hearing loud and continuous ham-
mering, mingled with shouting and other sounds, so unusual
to the respectable inhabitants of this locality. It was then
discovered that during the previous night and yesterday
morning a fair of very large dimensions had been established
in an extensive field at the rear of Camberwell Chapel, and
abutting on the Brunswick-road, and thereon had been
established upwards of 200 booths, including a large eques-
trian tent, a theatre, an exhibition of moving models, re-
freshment booths, rifle galleries, &c. It would appear that
on Sunday evening two or three caravans were noticed
proceeding towards the field ; but not the slightest idea was
entertained that a fair, and one of the largest that has ever
been established on the Surrey side of the water, was about
to be held. As soon as that became known, large bodies of
police were placed on duty, and several of the inhabitants
laid a complaint for the removal of the booths, &c., but
they were extremely surprised and disappointed on being
informed that this could not be done without giving the
parties seven days' notice ; and, of course, by that time the
fair would be over and the whole of .the ground cleared,
so that they will bo obliged to put up with it for three
days, although the extreme end of the fair comes within a
feet of the dwarf garden walls. Notwithstanding the
somewhat doubtful state of the weather the fair was duly
opened with the usual accompaniment of gongs, drums,
brass bands, and other deafening Noises. Before twelve
o'clock the roadway leading to the ground wore a very lively
appearance, hundreds of the lovers of such sights wending
their way thereto, and seeming to fancy that a triumph
had been gained by the revival of Camberwell Fair, which
it was thought was for ever extinct.
