ONLY ONCE A YEAR ! The Pantomime has claimed me once again ; Wherefore I lay my load of trouble down , And follow with the childish laughing train . My faith revives in Harlequin and Clown , And my heart yearns towards my uncle Brown , Who took me first to see the Christmas show .
The brightest jewels yet in Pleaaure s crown Are those which sparkled in it long ago ! I think , 'tis the best fooling , when all ' s done , To laugh with children at our childhood ' s fun . The fairy queen ascends her silver cloud , Which rises with her at the prompter ' s call ; The nimble lovers thread the elfin crowd ; The rest pursue , with many a trip and fall . Shrill laughter follows those misfortuffes all , And tiny hands applaud , with wondering glee , When Harlequin leaps through the canvas wall Or Columbine stands tip-toe on his knee . Tricks , changes , motion , noise , bustle , and strife , Keep one from thinking , as they do in life . The play is done , and sooth it were to say , How like a very prodigal I feel . ( If I should call on Uncle Brown some day , I wonder would he welcome me with veal f ) The curtain falls upon the final reel , Just as the crimson flame will rise no more ; The last spark flickers from the fiery wheel ; The fiddlers drop out through the little door . Rest , rest to Harlequin ' s tee-totum head ; Peace be with antic Clown stretched on his garret bed . Q .

Philip of Spain ' s Fiust Peogbess . —On the Monday evening , they were to meet at Winchester j and the long summer ' s day would only be long enough for the slow magnificence of the procession , in which the bridegroom was to march thither from Southampton . He had brought with , him a glorious retinue , decked out in all the splendours in which they had been wont to glitter up and down under the blue sky of Castile . The choicest chivalry of Europe were there in choicest holiday costume , with gold , and pearls , and silks , and velvets , and plumes of gorgeous birds of Paradise , from the forests of the new world . Southampton had never
seen such a troop of cavaliers as on that July morning wound along her streets ; and well might Southampton stand and gaze , and wonder at them , for never before or since were so many men worth marking seen together there . Alva was among them , and Count Egmont , and , greater than either , " William Prince of Orange , and Count Horn , four men whose equals were not perhaps alive in Europe , or in . the world . Poor England , and still more the English climate , which showed such weak perception of the hon our done to it ! The sun , at least , did not care to look at them , however the people did . Swithin lying there in his shrine at
Winchester would not sacrifice one hour of his moist rites . Down fell the rain , as if the whole torrent of the forty days were streaming into one ; down it fell , hopeless , cheerless , incorrigible . The gay feathers dangled in the bonnets ; the drenched horses drooped their heads , trailing their gaudy caparisons as they waded through the chalk slush of the roads ; hut no horse might quicken its pace , and no outward composure be disturbed : on they paced , slow , solemn , and most miserable . We can fancy how the Hampshire peasants stood grinning under the dripping eaves of the cottage dis
porches , and bare-legged urchins darted out with - respectful capers , as the last horse went by . We can fancy the oaths wliiili were muttered between Philip's yellow lips at all England , weather , marriage , queen , and the whole accursed connexion . And the vain was not the worst . To propitiate the god of his new subjects , he had drained in their honour , before stinting , n huge tankard of " the wine of the country "—Hampshire ale—the flavour mid the properties of which alike displeased his inexperienced stomach ; and , within and without , he wan drenched iu wretchedness . — Wvslminster .

bad treatment . The cartoons of Raphael , at Hampton Court , are a painful case in point . If the whole series of that work had been preserved , as , bychance , some favoured parts have been , it is clear that the whole would now be almost as perfect as when they left the master ' s pencil . Eight pictures , forming part of the national collection in London , were cleaned during the past year , 1852 . The result gave great dissatisfaction , and called forth severe censures from several eminent critics . With the alleged failure we , at this stage of our inquiry , have nothing to say . One fact is evident to the spectator , to wit ; six of the eight pictures , in their renovated state , are wondrously brilliant in colour , The Claude landscapes are bright to a fault , inasmuch as the eye suffers in looking at them , which is more than the master intended . There is one cheering fact , however , made evident by the picture cleaning in question—the several paintings present striking instances in point of the durability of colours which have been laid on for nearly two centuries .
