THE NATIONAL GALLERY.--The visitors to the
National Gallery yesterday were more numerous than on
previous holiday occasions. Last Whit-Monday they
amounted to between 12,000 and 13,000, but yesterday they
exceeded 15,000. Although the rooms were very much
crowded, there being at certain periods of the day between
2,000 and 3,000 at one time present, the greatest regularity
end decorum prevailed. The visitors were all ofa respectable
appearance, and apparently viewed the various magnificent
gems of art the gallery contains with great interest. Surely
the persons appointed to take care of the sticks and um-
brellas of thi.,visiter4 ought to treat the public with some
little degree-of "ciyilit?, lanstisige and manner of one of
