There can be now no question as to the certain success of the May Day Conversazione and Exhibition of the Richmond Athenæum and the Lower Thames Valley Branch of the Selborne Society. The chief problem that is likely to face the promoters on the Opening Day will be to make room for the many members and friends of the two societies who will be attracted to the Star and Garter Hotel on May Day, thanks to the generous programme provided. Up to the evening of Saturday, April 27th, the price of the tickets (inclusive of light refreshments from eight to twelve P.M. on May Day, and an elaborately-illustrated and finely-printed Catalogue of the Exhibits) will be 38. 6d, but after that they will be raised to 5s. The only difference between the advantages of members and visitors will be that the former will get their Catalogues free by virtue of their membership.

THE SPRIGHTLY MUSIC HOURS,

in the rebuilt and newly decorated Pavilion Room, which will take place on May Day, from seven to eight, and nine to ten FM, are sure to prove a source of great attraction. The Vocalists will include Miss CLARA LEIGHTON (late of the Carl Rosa Opera Company), Miss MARION MCKENZIE, Mr. W. NICHOLL, and Mr. FRANKLIN CLIVE. CONDUCTOR-Mr. CHARLES HARGITT. At seven o'clock a Selection from Flotow's Marta, or Richmond Fair,' will be given; and at nine a Miscellaneous Programme.

THE EXHIBITION ATTRACTIONS

will comprise (amongst many others) several fine examples of Mr. Henry Dawson's painting, including a magnificent Arundel Castle" (36 in. by 24 in), lent by Mr. Charles Dawson, of Chiswick, and never before exhibited. There will also be about forty elaborate views of Richmond and its neighbourhood fifty years ago (many of them having been shown at the Royal Academy), the work of Messrs. Hilditch; same choice examples of Bristow, the Windsor painter"; a fine colleetion of proof engravings, after Turner, of Richmond and its neighbourhood; and old prints of the same, lent by Mr. George Cave and others. Edmund Kean, of Richmond Theatre, will be represented by a few interesting memorials. There will be a collection of Richmond Tradesmen's Tokens, and Antiquities dug up at and near Richmond. AN INTERESTING FEATURE

of the Exhibition will be a very ample and well-preserved collection of Birds, Fishes, Insects, &c., by Mr. M. H. Blamey and others, illustrating the Natural History of the Thames Valley. The valuable Antiquities relating to the Lower Thames Valley will be finely set forth in the wellknown and rare collection, the property of Mr. Thomas Layton, FS A. Then there will be a very choice selection of illustrated books on Nature and Natural History (including Gould's magnificent works) lent by Messrs Sotheran & Co., Gould's Birds' alone being valued at, and insured for 1.0001. Local Topographical works and the Pamphlet Literature of the district will be pretty fully represented; and the Microscopy of local Nature and the Science of the neighbourhood will be in interesting evidence.

We may add that visitors from Town will have the advantage of frequent return trains up to 11 24 (Waterloo), and 11 30 (District Railway). Members and visitors who would study economy should get their tickets before this (Saturday) evening, April 27th, for the reason above given. Tickets may be obtained of Mr. S. F. Higgins and Mr P. A Churchward, London and Provincial Bank, Richmond; Mr. F. Pacy, Free Library, Richmond; Rev. Percy Myles and Mr. A. Belt (58, Madick-lane), Ealing; Mr. S. J. F.
