PUBLIC AMUSEMENTS .
ROSHBRVILLE GARDENS , GRAVESEND .
Rosherville , which is the largest , and unquestionably the most picturesque of our public gardens , possesses specific advantages in situation that bave been turned to very profitable account . There are manifold attractions , such , as leafy labyrinths , towering cliffs , a splendid banqueting hall , a place for dancing on the lawn , and other attractions so voluminous that to enumerate them would
occupy more of our space than our limited columns ivill allow- Rosherville Gardens has been a household word —a recognition of " old familiar faces , " and a sad remembrance of many friends Avho have passed to that " bourne from Avhence no traveller returns . " However , it is not our purpose to go into the sorrowful , but advise a visit to these delightful gardens , so long familiar by name as a favourite and general resort to the holiday seekers . "We are confident there are no places of recreation Avithin

a feAV miles of London more deserving than the gardens above referred to . Before concluding we must draw attention to the beautiful bijou theatre ill the centre of the grounds , a theatre , —perhaps one of the most elegant in the world , for its size—wherein burlesques are performed nightly , in addition to other attractions in the daytime . The burlesque
at the present time is " Black Ey'd Susan , " in Avhich Miss Ada Taylor—a young lady Avell known in the profession , and a particular favourite in this locality—plays William ; Miss HoAvard enacts Susan , her singing and dancing being Avell received . Mr . James is a good Lame Ifatley— -Mr . 0 . Fenton an admirable Captain Orosstree ; ivhile Miss Kate Hodsoii makes the most ofBalcer . The
Misses Duvalli are the Shaivn o'Plousliare and Lolly Mayflower , Avhich characters are Avell played , and their dancing first-rate- Incidental to the burlesque was some graceful terpsichorean display by the junior portion , of the Lupino Family . In conclusion , Ave must assert that Eosherville is the ne ' plus ultra of modern places of amusement , and Mr . George Jones , the proprietor , deserves the thanks of the public , for supplying them with such a pleasurable resort .
