The summer season of then delightful gardens com-
mences on Monday next, and the proprietor appears de-
termined to take the field with a spirit and copprehen-
bireness worthy of the increasing p•-)pularity of his
establishment, and of the increasing desire far recrea
tive and healthful amusement.

A lettEr just received from Paris says :—" The
session of the Legislative Corps has been prolonged
by Imperial decree to the 28th May. The numerous
important measures which remain to be discussed
rendered the above step indispensable. The Chamber
has not yet examin, d the bill 4 re spect:ng the Bank
of France and the Transatlantic line of steamers. It
awalts the reports concerning the projects relative to
the Lyons and Me iitetranean railways tothe fusion
of the Great Central, and to the grant forthe Bettie-
yard de Sebastopol. The Chamber is engag-d otra bill
for an increase in the number of deputies from the
departments. It will have to vote the budget,
which will solve the questio❑ of the tax on trans-
ferable securities. A fortnight, it will be ad-

The leading alterations and additions consist of a new
theatre, intended for the performances of thee Mario-
nettes, . the grand entrance to the cirque, and the
crystal illuminative decoration of the Chinese platform
—which are worthy of special allusion, for their import-
ance and tastefulness, though we would not be unmind-
ful of the various improvements which have been made
in almost every portion of the grounds As we Khali
have another opportlinity of describing the two former
of these additions, me shall only now remark that one
advantage, contingent on the one outside the Cirque,
will be one which the public will hail with much
pleasure, as they will now be afforded the daisy freedom
of the promenade within the Cirque, from wl;icle they
will he able to enjoy each equestrian performances.
The illuminative decoration of the Chinese platform
will be very brilliant, being a continuation of crcles and
arches, which, commencing at the centre serieg of the
sixteen compartments of trellis work to a height of about
12 feet, entirely surround the dancing circle, the
inferior arches enclosing various coloured lamps of novel
and tasty form, while the superior ones support a lerge
number of lights also varying both in colour and tea):
Some idea may be formed of the effect which will be '
produced by these additions, when we state that each
lamp and light is covered with crystal drops and pen-
dents, which will be thought somewhat tnarvelleus by
Vose who know the extent allotted to the lovers of
Cremorne'a far-famed Al Fre•co Dance. _ _

The 20th June falls on a Saturday, and on the fol-

The programme of amusements, which includes a
variety of Al Frei-co performances and novelties much
too numeious to mention here, indicates a new ballet,
of which report speaks very highly, and upon the pro-
duction of which no expense of scenery, music, and per-
formers, has been spared. On former occasions it has
been our pleasing task to notice the extraordinary efforts
of Mr. Simpson, and we now allude to Cremorne as, in
our estimation, one of those establishments which de-
serve the most general support, particularly when we
consider it is the result of individual enterprise, and that
of the most liberal and comprehensive character.
