ts.nat, in February last, having tried Leander to be a

eII superior horse, he was anxious to satisfy himself
ecith regard to the rumours that had been circulated
neerning his age, and for this purpose had his
mouth examined by Mr. Wood, the veterinary sur-
Z, of Arundel, from whom he received a certificate,
hthg his own and his clerk's signatures, that he
e
three years old. This appears a strong point
ur of Mr. Forth ; but it is now asked, "Was
•,, se submitted to Mr. Wood for examination the
lorpcal Leander, or an animal, professedly Leander,
of the age mentioned in the certificate ?" In a case
0,,.°0 much uspon, and opposed, as Mr. Wood's

Pur.r,-4tenell, he directed it to be boiled, for the
after-', e of removing the flesh, and that the jaw was
krprds sealed up, in order to its inspection by
doe; lald, on Saturday. In conclusion, Mr. Forth
eo„l_4.res that, from first to last, he has acted upon a
thauiv,letion that the horse's age was rightly stated, and
1.e.!. notwithstanding Mr. Field's opinion, he still
witia it.

WHITSUN AMUSEMENTS.

ADELPHI.

" The Wizard of -the North " continues to draw
crowds nightly to this theatre, to witness his mar-
vellous feats of sleight of hand, and those really sur-
prising deceptions and transformations which might
well excite the envy of Simon Magus himself. Not
content with the fame he has already won, " The
Wizard" has, with a just appreciation of the popu-
larity his performances have acquired, made renewed
exertions to strengthen his claim to public favour at
this particular season. In addition to the diversified
succession of his own performances, the lovers of
music were highly gratified by a vocal and in-
strumental concert, which formed a distinct part
of last evening's entertainments. The performers
were Mademoiselle Rossini and the Misses Emma
and Victoria Collini, and Mr. Collini. Made-
moiselle Rossini played two grand fantasias on the
violin with admirable execution and effect, and with
a skill and command that drew from the audience re-
peated bursts of applause. The Misses Emma and
Victoria Collini sang a duet, "As it fell upon a day,"
in which they were much applauded, and Miss Emma
Collini sang with great sweetness and expression the
beautiful ballad, " Kate Kearney." Brief as this
notice necessarily is, we must not omit to mention
the ability with which Mr. Collini played accompani-
ments on the violoncello and the flute. At the con-
clusion of the concert the audience again testified
their approbation in renewed applause, and this
musical interlude promises to become an agreeable
feature in the entertainments at the Adelphi. "The
Arab Brothers," a trio of interesting youths, per-
formed some wonderful feats of agility, and formed
some very beautiful and striking tableaux.
THE .IV.ATIOIV AL GALLERY.

-- - -
This splendid national collection of pictures, in which
are congregated the works of almost all the celebrated
painters of every country in Europe, since the close of
the fifteenth century, formed, as might be expected, a
great object of attraction to thousands of the more
sober-minded of the holiday folks on Monday. The dif-
ferent rooms were crowded to excess during the day,
but the greatest decorum and regularity were observed
by the multitudes who thronged them.
THE ROYAL ACADEMY.

From its extent, varied character, and the prestige
attaching to its name (being justly considered at the
head of all the periodical exhibitions of the metropolis),
this establishment received its due share of attention on
the part of the holiday-keeping public. The rooms were
well filled throughout the day, and, as the exhibition is
rich in every department of art, it did not fail to gratify
the most sanguine expectations of the visitors.
SUFFOLK-STREET GALLERY.
The present exhibition is generally acknowledged to
be one of its happiest displays. It is especially rich in
landscapes, both portraits and compositions, and in other
departments of art it maintains, at least, its pristine
station.

WATERCOLOUR EXHIBITION,
PALL-MALL EAST.

The fortieth exhibition of this society, which is now
open, is generally deemed equal to the best which has
occurred since the formation of the society. The. exer •
tions of the members appear to sutler no diminution ;
but, on the contrary, they have rendered their present
annual exhibition worthy the reputation they have ac-
quired in former years. The liberal patronage of the
public has, in consequence, been their reward.
NEW WATER-COLOUR EXHIBITION,
PALL-MALL.

The excellent quality of the specimens which adorn
the walls of both these exhibitions is a proof of great
attention paid by our artists to the cultivation of this
branch of the fine arts, in which they have long been
held to excel all the world. Like its predecessor, the
exhibition-room of this society received its due share of
the patronage of the holiday-keeping public.
