VAUXHALL GARDENS.

Yesterday a grand day fête was given at these gar-
dens, on which occasion all the extensive and varied
entertainments of the establishment were called into
requisition. In the afternoon Mrs. Graham,-.the in-
trepid aeronaut, accompanied by a young lady. her
daughter, and a gentleman, ascended in the Royal
Victoria and Albert Balloon, which made its debut in
the presence of a large assemblage of spectators. The
young lady exhibited none of that timidity which
might, not unnaturally, have been expected from a
youthful member of the-fair sex; but, on the con-
trary, she displayed as much selt-possession and non-
chalance as her parents themselves. The balloon
ascended very steadily, and was borne gently to the
south-west, where it remained stationary at an in-
considerable altitude for some tune. A concert, vocal
and instrumental, followed, in which Miss E. Nelson,
Miss F. Haddart, and Mr. Leffler, assisted by several
other artistes, afforded a rich treat to the lovers of
harmony by the admirable manner in which-they ex-
ecuted some of the most popular pieces of music.
The marble groupings appear to have lost none of
their original attractions, and the scenes of equitation,
with Madlle. Valentine. on her docile steed
" Navarino," Madlle. F. Rosseau, and other female
equestrians, are still deservedly popular. Mr. Nelson
repeated his performance on the pine sticks and Nia-
gara stones, and Santa Atnerou and his sons displayed
their extraordinary feats on the corde volante, to the
astonishment, not unmingled with apprehension, of
the spectators. The fireworks were, as usual on fête
nights, on a scale of great magnificence, and all the
other attractions of the place were put forward in
great profusion.

IQON MASTERS' QUARTERLY MEETINGS.—Bra-
MINGIJAM, TIICRSDAY.—The prices fixed at the preL4l-
- meeting, held at Handsworth a fortnight ego, have
been maintained. The Shropshire iron masters were in-
clined to an advance—a reduction they would not submit
to—and that influence contributed greatly to the titmness of
the market.
