EasteY Amusements.

The theatres, with one or two notable ex-
ceptions, were obliged to do penance during
the season of Lent, If not in sackcloth and
ashes, at least in empty benches. Easter week,
long prayed for by disconsolate managers, has
come at last and brought with it quite re-
vival in the amusement line. Concert, opera,
drama, burlesque, minstrelsy are all again in
full operation, and the most brilliant announce
ments have been made for the present season.
AS for concerts, their name is legion. Benefits
of every kind nightly take place in every
quarter of the city, few of them possessing
any novel features. There are some, however,
at which first class artists and the highest
works in music may be heard. Again, we
have an avalanche of readers, among whom
are the well known Mrs. Fanny Kemble and
Dickens. La Belle Helene runs away with
Paris every night at the Theatre Francois, car
rying with her the hearts of the audience, and
the ''Whte Fawn" has new dress. The cyno-
cephalus hurls defiance at the Academy from
his chargers back at the Circus, and the notes
of preparation, whatever they may bring forth,
are heard at Pixies. German opera, sparring
benefits, slack Sheppard" and learned dogs
divide the attention Of the denizens Of the
Bowery, and already two great tragediennes
herald their projected visit to Fourteenth street.
Then we are to have grand musical festival
at Steinway Hall, surprising that Of last year.
If the clerk of the weather could only be per-
suaded that New York is not Alaska and that
snow at Easter is more novel than agreeable
the managers would be entirely happy. There
is every reason to expect, however, brilliant
finale to the unexampled dulness of the past
season of amusements. The managers should
take advantage of II while it lasts, and bring
out novelties and artists of unimpeachable
merit.

The Prince Of Wales in Ireland.

The Prince Of Wales, accompanied by her
Royal Highness the Princess his wife, attended
by brilliant and noble suite, and escorted by
British feet, arrived in Dublin yesterday,
after pleasant run across the channel from
Holyhead to Kingston harbor, the heir appar-
ent to the throne of England thus, with the
consent of the Queen and entire appreciation of
the people, according to the inhabitants Of
Ireland the honor of a royal visit in state.
During his stay in the Irish metropolis the
Prince will be installed Knight Of the Most
nlustrious Order of st. Patrick-the ribbon
Of which has not been worn by an English
prince with the exception of George the
Fourth-the ceremonies being conducted with
imperial pomp and solemn religious services in
the old cathedral dedicated to St. Patrick.
This visit of the Prince of Wales indicates,
at moment of the most seriously critical
Importance in the history of the two countries,
a generous intention on the part of Great
Britain to hold out the right hand of fellowship
to Ireland, and thus obliterate, if possible,
the burning memories induced and per-
petuated by the wrongs, rivalries, jealousies
and recriminations which spring from
wars of race, misgovernment, violations Of
constitutional rule, and uncharitable and fruit
less discussions as to the soul-saying efficiency
of different "forms of creed" The Prince of
Wales will introduce his youthful and beauti-
full bride to the people of the green island, the
royal pair carrying with them-the most i'm
portant acquisition Of all-the full assurance
of the people of England, expressed in the
recent signal and decisive vote of the House
of Commons on the Irish Church question, that
their efforts towards Cancellation and ameliora-
ton will have their complete endorsement. In
this view the royal visit to Ireland may prove
a complete success, and initiate an era of
national atonement for the mistakes and in
justices of period numbering six hundred
and eighty-seven years.

and hence the large increase in the HERALD's
advertisements. Buyers and sellers are now
in the habit of consulting our columns every
morning in order to supply their several wants,
and the old system of employing agents and
paying out heavy commissions is rapidly falling
into disuse. It will not be long before the
HERALD's quadruple sheet will be issued more
frequently than that of the London Times or
any other newspaper in the world.

Assurances Of Peace.
PARIS, April Is, 1868.
The Monite,r in It's issue OF to-day publishes q
speech made at Rambouillet by NJ. Ernest Baroche,
Minister OF Justice, in which he endeavors to allay
the excitement produced by the frequent rumors OF
impending war.
The Minister says it is well known that the govern
ment is now engaged in actively prosecuting extern
sive works for the Improvement Of the entire system
OF interior and connecting roads OF France, in which
large sums Of money are expended. This fact ne
argues is utterly inconsistent with the idea that the
government apprehends or Is making preparations
for an approaching warlike conflict, and should be
conclusive evidence to all that France earnestly de-
sires peace The very reorganization of the military
forces OF the empire, which had excited so much
needless apprehension, was pledge for the main
enance Of peace, which he assured his hearers with
10y no European Power now threatened to disturb.
