they bid fair to become one of the standard attractions of
the holiday folks this season.

WYLD'S GREAT GLOBE.

Whenever pleasure-seekers are about, this most instruc-
tive place of amusement is sure of being extensively
patronised, and, as a matter of course, it was crowded yes-
terday. So varied and extensive have the dioramas here
now become, that the visitor may fairly reckon, when he once
enters the building, on making pictorial acquaintance with
half the civilized places of the world ere the entertainment is
concluded. There are museums, lectures, wax-works,
minerals, expositions, and panoramas innumerable. That
, old stock favourite, the diorama of China, has been im-
proved and added to. Hong Kong and Canton are now
pretty nearly as well known as Cheapside, and the visitor,
therefore, is further taken on from Amoy to Chusan, and
Shanghai, and so on up the Gulf of Pechele to Peiho and
Pekin itself. These, however, are not the only novelties ;
even. Japan has been laid bare to curious eyes, and the
streets, houses, and cities of the most jealously exclu-
sive people on the face of the earth are here all faithfully
portrayed to London holiday seekers. The view of Nan-
gasaki, the capital of Japan, if we may so call that city, is
an exceedingly good one, and gives a fair glimpse of the
street life of that curious nation. The diorama of what we
I hope we may now term tke late seat of war in Upper India
is still in great force, and a long series of 42 tableaux gives
the visitor a vivid notion of this turbulent portion of our
empire from Calcutta to Benares, and thence on to Agra and
its noble Hall of Audience. Taken from beginning to end,
the whole of the entertainments proffered at the Great Globe
are of the most interesting kind, and, while they in-
terest from their variety and beautiful pictorial effects, are
as instructive as they are really entertaining. It would be
difficult to name another place of its kind where so much
can be seen and learnt for so reasonable a fee for admission.

society, and he would appeal to all before him to
say in what way they could mom beneficially use
any turplus means with which Providence had
blessed them than to bestow these means on such
an admirable charity. The worthy alderman con-
cluded by reading a letter from the Lord Mayor,
expressing his deep regret that continued illness
prevented him from attending to advocate the in-
terests of the charity, expressing his deep interest
in its prosperity, and enclosing a cheque for £lO
10s. in aid of its funds. (Cheers.)
The toast was drunk with great enthusiasm.
In the course of the evening the healths of the
founders and the various officers of the institution
were proposed and duly honoured.
The subscriptions announced, including many
from leading firms, amounted to upwards of £6OO.
