ABBREVIATED CRITICISMS.
"On Monday last, in the theatre of the ROYAL INSTITUTION, a select and
representative audience assembled to witness a series of the most
interesting demonstrations of Animal Locomotion given by Mr. Muybridge.
"The Prince and Princess of Wales, Princess Victoria, Louise, and Maud, and
the Duke of Edinburgh honored the occasion by their presence; likewise did
I note among the brilliant company Earl Stanhope, Sir Frederick Leighton,
P.R.A.; Professors Huxley, Gladstone, and Tyndall; and last, not least,
Lord Tennyson, poet laureate.
