PALMo's OPERA HoUsE.-Thls place OF amuse-
ment was well attended by very respectable au-
dience The grand buresque opera OF "Buy,l-
dare J" went off with great ecidt, and many OF the
pieces were encored. The solo on the accordion,
by Mr.. Huntley, was greatly and Justly appauded,
and the audience was scarcely satisfied with one
encore. "The Virginlan Girl" excited much laugh
ter, particularly the solo on the combadoor Indeed
the whole performance was most excenent, ana
well worthy of the patronage II received This IS the
last night of their performance, and those who have
never seen this talented troupe, had better take the
opportunity. We can assure them they VIII be
arnpy gratified and amused


The OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES FEAT.-Ihe most as
tonishing feat lof the day was performed by Mr..
Hood, Of the Bowery. AT about seven O'Clock IN
the evening,a vast crowd were collected In the Bow
cry, to witness this extraordinary feat, namely,
walking across the entire width OF the Bowery, OPP
posite the theatre. on a tight rope. The rope was
extended from the highest roof OF the houses at
either side, measuring about ninety tect across, and
the elevation from the street was calculated at about
fifty-two feet. Mr.. Hood, at the appointed hour,
with perfect sang frod, commenced his work, and
proceeded across, the crowds OF spectators below
in the street looking up with evident anxiety, IN al
most breathless suspense. 10 the astonlsnment OF
all, Mr. Hood performed the feat with perfect ease,
and on arriving at his place of destination, after the
performance, was hailed with loud, long and reiier-
ated applause. The theatre was filled almost to suf-
location during the evening. The bill OF fare was
excellent


The CHATHAM was crowded to excess long before
seven o'clock, and several unable to procure Places
were compelled to 60 to some other place OF amuse-
ment.


ACCIDENTS There were but few accidents during
la,, 4, opId rfatn md M Grps
whatever occurred to mar the testvity OF the day.
We heard of but two casualties, in Ann street
and the other in Chatham street. The first was a
boy, whose hand was shattered by the premature
explosion of the gun and the second, man whose
arm was also shattered by the bursting OF pistol.
A young woman was run over by an omnibus In
Park row, but no bones broken; the extent OF her
injuries, if any, we were not able to ascertain.


There were but few casualties beyond what we
have already given. young child was run over in
the Broadway by carriage about dusk and seriously
injured AT the Hospital they had but few cases
OF burns, and none of them serious


The accidents which took place in the upper part of
the town were very few, we having noticed but one in
Broadway, which was caused by furious driving OF
stagemen, one directing the pole OF his stage right
into the breast of the other, and shattering both
poles to pieces.

Ithaving been previously ascertained that the two
other horses belonged to the same person, or came
out of the stable, the other refused to 60, Justly
deeming that two against one was too much of
good thing. 1t is hoped that all such tricks will be
thus defeated.


Immediately after came offa pacing match for a
purse of $50, tree for all pacing horses, mile heats,

The attendance was respectable, and the track in
pretty good ORDER considering the heavy rain OF the
previous day here and there II was little sticky,
but not so much so as to spoil sport.


THE AVENUES AND HARLEM.-The numbers who
resorted to Yorkville, Harlem, and the beautiful
spots along the avenues, were not so numerous as
are frequently met with on Sundays. Not but at
the same time there was goodly muster, and the
omnibusses and railway cars were well filled, each
trip, throughout the day; but they were mostly
strangers in those parts, families endeavorlng to
escape from the eternal buzz and crack, crack that
prevailed in the city. There might be seen the
family man with his wife, and some five or six
Children beautifully tailed OIL unless when, brought
up to dead stand at an apple stall or candy shop
There were great number OF visitors at the reser
voir during the day, where every attention paid
TO them in showing and explaining the works, &c
At Yorkvile and Prospect Hall, Hurlgae ,tSc.; small
family parties might be frequently met with,
some pic nickng, and others taking whatever the
different houses afforded. The great point OF
attraction at Harlem Gelger's pleasure gardens.
Here the youngsters revelled in delight, being
free TO help themselves TO the fruit with which
the trees were loaded and bountifuly they
helped themselves, no doubt at the cost of many
stomach ache to-day. In this nelghborhood
there was held Ladies' Fair, on behalf OF
the Presbyterian Church, which afforded the resi-
dents someltte amusement,the church rlhe of pro-
fit, and the ladies opportunity OF displaying them
selves and their to the best advantage. There
also some good trottlng matches over the Har-
lem course which attracted the attention and pre-
sence fthe sporting gents OF the nighborhood and
New York and before and afterwards some trials
of speed, upset and breakage along the road The
great attraction OF the day nthis neighborhood, was
most beautiful new omnibus, drawn by SIX grey
horses with noddlng plumes, engaged by the Phila-
dephia Washington Association, who were on
visit TO this city to spend the Anniversary OF the Ma
tlon's Independence. The principal point of attrac-
traction on the Bloomngdale road was the Abbey
