VAUXHALL GARDENS.

The fineness of the wearer caused these Gardens to
be most numetously and fashionably attended Monday
night. Besides the usual interesting and judiciously-
vaned amusements, a new performer made his appear-
s Mr, JEAN. RODARTS, a French Juggler. His ex-
hibi • was one of great neatness and dexterity. He
com with the balls after the manna of RAMO
SAME; and was thought by many to surpass that very
celebrated practitioner, as he kept six balls up at one
time, without the slightest accident or confusion. He
next performed a similar feat with rings or hoops of
brass, and afterwards he did the same with knives.—
Subsequently he entertained the company with some
extraordinary balancing. He sustained, in full spin, a
large peg top, accommodating himself to all its move-
ments when it was about to go down, and never suffer-
ing it to lose its equilibrium. He finished by elevating
a small poodle dog, and balancing him as he had done,
the top. The little animal seemed well acquainted with
its master's skill, and manifested no apprehension for his
➢ersonal safety. The whole was • much admired, and
the Juggler retired amidst universal approbation.

The remain: of Lord BYRON ware removed on Mon-
day from the brig Florida, at anchor off the London
Docks, to Great George-street, Westminster. On trans-
ferring them to the coffin they were found to retain ex-
actly the same appearance as when they were first em-
balmed. The removal took place with the utmost pri-
vacy, under the superintendence of Mr. Hosuovsx, who
accompanied the barge that carried the body from the
ship to the shore. The place of the funeral is not finally
determined opon ; but as the near relations and repre-
sentatives of the deceased have expressed an anxious
desire that he should be interred in the family vault at
Hucknell. in Nottinghamshire, it is probable that their
wishes will be complied with ; although Mr. HOZHOUSR,
one of his executors, and his Lordship's private friends,
very naturally thought that Westminster Abbey should,
receive the remains of Lord BYRON.
We are sorry to hear that Mr. WILIIRRFORER is again
seriously ill, though we hope not dangerously. He was on a visit
to Lord GAUlItt at her, when the disorder commenced, %mikes
been detained there by it for a week or more.
SIR MARK MASTSRMAN STILES, BA RTO--.EVANS COG•
elided the sale of the third and final portion of the books of the de.
teased Baronet on Tuesday. The whole library produced nearly
nineteen thousand pounds. We do nut remember is splendid a eat.
Section of useful as well as rare books in any former sale; nor was
the amount of the sale ever equalled, with the solitary merit*
of the, fiesburghe Library.
AFRICAN Oa K.— A Correspondent requests us to.
warn those who in the course of their business have models to
work upon African oak, of the poisonous effects if splinters of it
when sun into the flesh. He states that two sawyer. in his neigh-
bombes* have died from it, and seteral others have been laid up.
A chemical analysis of the weed would put an end to all doubts on
She subject, and perhaps save some valuable lives.
We understand that Lord DARLINGTON'S lead mines
have been very productive of late and that the Noble Lord, at
this moment, holds a stock of reined lead to the extent of SOO
tens, besides 400 ton;, at least, of rich ore. Other mines have like-
wise recently been worked with great success; notwithstanding
which, the article is not diminished in price. The demand for
home consumption is great, and is likely to be increased, in conse-
quence of the number of public and private buildings, and the ap-
plication of this metal to so many novel uses.
Within the last fortnight, upwards of two hundred
persons have been fined bif the Loan: Mares, for causing obstruc-
tions in the streets, and dse consequence is now palpable. The
traik in the shops in the principal streets is carried on compara-
tively without interruption, and the public are subject to• but few
of those perils to which they were constantly liable before the New
Street Act was rigidly enforced.
