THE HIGHLAND DWARFS.
THE HIGHLAND DWARFS, who have had
the honour of exhibiting before her Majesty and his Royal
Highness Prince Albert on two different occasions, are now to be
seen in the Cosmorama Rooms, 209, Regent-street, every day from
twelve to two o'clock, and from three to five ; and from seven to nine
in the evening. The dwarfs are three in number, two males and a
female (brothers and sister) ; they are fully equipped in the High-
laad and perform a series of national, martial, and festive
4'ances. The two males, who are remarkably active, excel in the
celebrated Gille Coullam, or Sword Dance ; and so extraordinary is
the muscular development of the eldest that he can with ease carry
two 561 b. weights about the room. He and his brother exhibit all
the positions of the broadside exercise with a precision that would do
honour to the first school of fence. And in addition to their other
accomplishments, they, in conjunction with their sister, sing the
beautiful airs of their native glens with exquisite taste and feeling.

As Mr. Mackenzie. who has these singular creatures under his
protection, can (in consequence of his other engagements) remain but
a short time in town, the admirers of the wonderful in nature are
requested to pay an early visit.

THE DERBY and OAKS.—In this our fick e
. climate be ever cautious. It may be a drizzle or a down
Tight Pour, a sunshine gentle or tierce, or a road clouded by dust ; yet
"ve with you at all times, but then especially, the REGISTERED
PALETOT of Llama Cloth, a very light gentlemanly over-coat,
'Willett can be had only of the Patentees, 11., J., and D. NICOLL,
11 I Regent street, or their New WArerdoms, 22, Cornhill, opposite
the south entrance of the Royal Exchange, one door from Change-

REGISTERED PALETOT of LL AMA
CLOTH, 6 and 7 Victor's., cap. 65.
Patronised by the Prince Consort, Prince George of Cambridge, the
fluke of Wellington, and the following distinguished visitors to this
country:—The Emperor of Russia, the King of Prussia, the King of
Ileig.llm, the King of Saxony, the King or Holland, Prince William
of Prussia, and further honoured by the continued patronage of all
Who seek an unaffected gentlemanly appearance. The cloth is
Made of Llama Wo)l, a fabric most agreeably soft and elastic to the
touch, and is one-third the weight of ordinary woollen clothes, but it
corresponds in shades of colour. It is eery durable, and naturally a
repellent of rain, yet so porous as to admit of a due escape of exces-
sive bodily heat. These advantages, with the very moderate price
charged, renders the Registered Paletot worthy the attention of all.
They can be purchased in London, of the Patentees only, at their
Warerootes, 114, Regent-street, and 22, Cornhill,

Where talent, first rate, is developed in action ;

Whilst splendour and cheapness together unite ;
And praises are lavished by thousands who flock
To see Hyam's wonders and gaze on his stock.

The favour, the kindness, the aid of a visit.

In future you'll patronise Hyena for Clothes.
