ROYAL CREMORNE GARDENS.

These gardens, which, apart from the variety of en-
tertainments they offer to visitors, form in themselves
one of the most attractive objects to the population cf
London—open for the coming holidays on Good Friday
and Easter Sunday. The opportunity fir promenade,
of which the general public so readily avail themselves,
will be afforded ; and on Monday the usual amusements,
consisting of a vocal and instrumental concert, a comic
ballet, an al fresco ball on the illuminated Chinese plat-
form, and an early display of fireworks, will be given,
interluded with a variety of minor but interesting cx-
hib►tionr. We understand the proprieti:r has taken
advantage of the fine weather, and this year will pie -
sent the property throughout in a state nearer approach-
iug to the finish ( f summer than the partial prepara-
tion of.spring. On the Friday the Ashburnhain pavilion
will be occupied by a party of gentlemen who have
associated for the purpose of testing the various qua-
lities of fowling pieces. Much interest has been ex-
cited by writers on the field on this subject, and a,
we understand that entries are made from many parts
of the Uuite.,(l Kingdom by scientific and sporting ,gen-
tlemen, we are inclined to believe the gun trial wilt be
well attended. The targets will be placed in the pavi-
lion, and the public will be admitted to reserved places
at a moderate charge.

The improvements and additions contemplated for
the summer are Faid to be very important, and the
new paintings, statues, and transparencies principally
relate to India and its heroes.

The lovers of American flowers will no doubt be
gratified to find that the permanent season will be in-
augurated by a repetition of Messrs. Waterer and
Godfrey's show, which two years since secured such
distinguished patronage.

THE PYNE AND HARRISON CONCERTS.—The thy ird of
these entertainments was given at Drury-lane last night.
Miss Louisa Pyne who had previous'y been prevented
from singing by a heavy domestic affliction, now ap-
peared, and was welcomed by the audience with the
warmest demonstrations of enthusiasm. The concert
was excellent. Among several floe instrumental pieces
there was Moscheles's concerto in E—the once im-
mensely popular piece which contains the "Grenadier's
March," played by Niiss,Arabella Goddard, who, ia addi-
tion to her superb performance, had the merit i,f reviv-
ing a most masterly work, which has fallen into un-
deserved neglect. There was an ample selection from
"The RJBB of Castille," and a number of miscellaneous
vocal pieces, well chosen, and well perfortned. It is a
subject of regret that the name of that very charming
artiste, Madlle. Finoli, is no longer in the programme.
We still hope again to hear her before the termination
of the series.

DISMISSAL OF THE SECRETARY OF THE GREAT NORTH-
ERN RAILWAY.—It is understood that Mr. Mowatt, the
secretary of the Great Northern Railway Company, was
dismissed yesterday from his position in that establish-
ment. The circumstances connected with this step are
likely, it is said, to be fully laid before the public by Mr.
Mowatt, who was recautly designated by Mr. Denison,
the chairman, as one of the most able officers of the com-
pany; but towards whom a sudden change of feeling
seems to have occurred.—? Mmes.
REPRESENTATION OF GREENWICH.--It is rumoured,
and generally believed throughout the borough of Green-
wich, that a vacancy will very shortly occur in its repre-
sentation, consequent upon the unfortunate position of
one of the presout members, Mc. Townsend. For several
days past it had been advertised that the whole of the
furniture at Mr. Townsend's residence would be sold by
auction, under a judge's order. Such sale, whioa was
fixed for yesterday, did not, however, take place, in con-
sequence of subsequent proceedings in the Court of Bank-
ruptcy. Such is the prevalent belief in an approaching
election, that the friends of Mr. M. Chambers are agai❑
on the qui rive, and several committees are in existence
for securing the return of that gentleman on any future
occasion.

RUNAWAY BANKRUPM.—Complaints continue to he
made of the ease with which defaulters in England escape
their creditors by availing them,,elves of the Sc)tch
Bankruptcy Law. A respectable firm, who had previously
j
suffered in a similar manner, have u,t been defeated in
an attempt to counteract a movement of this kin
debtor was a Loudon attorney, against whom they oi;-
tained a judgment. He claimed, however, to be pro-
tected by virtue of a sequestration obtained a fsvv mn ;ntbs
previously in Scotland, and wbie?. he had r,een able to
manage without opposition, since, while his real place of
business wss Buckler•lbury, he was described in the offi-
cial notices as of Stornaway, in the county of Ross,
without any mention of his profession or occupation. The
English Court was accordingly applied to to overrule his
plea, on the ground that he had not been fitly and suffi•
ciently described, but the result was unfavourable. It
was deci led that he had obtained his final discharge,
and thus new cons dence will be given to that num,rous
class of adventurers who cuVivate a knoNiedge the
law to avail themselves of the endless facilities it nff.rs
for securing immunity to rogues, and punishing toose
who for the sake of public morality may endeavour to
bring them to their deserts.-2'itnes City Article.
