' ended Scale than has ever before been witnessed. In announcing a
SYLVAN FETE,
The Proprietor's aim will be directed to enable the Subscribers,
Nobility, Gentry and the Public, to witness those RUSTIC SPORTS
which are nearly obsolete, but the observance of which procured for
this country the title of " Marrie England," and which, in the Olden
The, constituted the principal Amusements of a country fair !
The peculiar y English sports of the May-pole with its Morr;s dan-
cers, Friar Tuck, Maid Marian, Pipe and Tabor, &c., will be ex-
hibited.

I'll drink to the garlands around it."--llErtarcic.

the Members of the Toxopholite Clubs, in their Forest Costume.
The science of Archery, but for the manly and spirit-stirring elthrts
of the Archery Clubs, would soon become a " Tale of by-gone Days,"
co-existent with Robin Hood and His Merry Men, when in Sherwood
Forest they drew " The cloth-yard shaft," and the welkin rang with
" the shouts of the foresters bold."
" Hail to our leader, brave Robin Hood,
For a noble marksman and forester good."
A decorated Pavilion will be erected thr the use o the competitors.

Imitation of the Modern Polka, will be introduced.
The never-tiring and always amusing PUNCH will exhibit his
Mirth-inspiring antics and drolleries. He will afterwards become
:trial, and exhibit his tricks in another element.

the Occult Science, to whom " The Book of Fate will be open,"
" The hawthorn bush, with seats beneath the shade,
For talking age and whispering lovers made."—OOLDSMITII.
