are all struck with its extraordinay beauty sad fidelity of delinea-
tion,euid 3ve unanimous in pronouncing it the most wonderful ex-
hibition ever witnessed. To view it only as a vehicle for the terrific

the quiet Evening, with its Towers and Steeples reflected in the spa-
Cious Lake, to be fully appreciated.
The Evening PROMENADE CONCERTS on Mondays, Tues.
days, Wednesdays, and Thursdays conoucted uy Mr. Godfrey,
are up, n a scale of more than usual excellence; but words fail in

time so beautifully blended with the Wonders of the Pyrotechnic
Art, that delight is predominant over terror; and the Thousands
who nightly crowd the Gardens hail it with acclamations, and admit
that e.outbby, the Unrivalled Pyrotechnist has achieved a matchless
triumph.
The Gardens and Zoological Collection are in the moat perfect
state, mid combining so many and interesting features, are by far
the most attractive lounge in or near the metropolis.
