THE DIORAMA. – We beg most particularly to direct the attention of our “holiday folks” to this very beautiful exhibition at the Music Hall. We are precluded by want of room in our present number from entering into any details as to the various paintings exhibited; but we can assure our readers that a visit to the Music Hall will no less surprise than delight them. The several views are exquisitely painted, the respective subjects most admirably chosen, while the charge for admission is extremely reasonable. Moreover, the artist Mr. Duke is a very talented man, and well worthy of public patronage and support. On Friday, we shall give a full description of these very beautiful paintings.
