entertaining Performers, it may be stated that they represent. by
the Human Voice, a complete Orchestra of both Wind and Sr ringed
Instruments ; even the Drum, Cymbals, Musical Box, and Bagpipes,

ear. Their merits have been so frequently expounded by the
leading newspapers, and above two millions of Auditors, that it is
unnecessary to enumerate them.

.side !"
