In personal appearance 4113 Signor bears an inter-
mediate resemblance to the Duke de Malakoff and
to our renowned friend Soyer. He narrates his
" experiences," as he terms them, in very piquant
French, and with an evident enjoyment of his own
powers of mystification.
Andreoletti carefully submits to the manipula-
tions of the occupants of the stalls and the boxes
not only the plain deal table, without drawers, on
which he places the several objects operated upon,
but performs the major part of his tricks on the
platform, level with the stage which crosses the
stalls, viz,, in the centre of his audience. Every trick
was performed so perfectly, that one felt " that the
eyes were made the fools of the other senses."
We think " La Poule du Diable" and " Le Grand
Arithmeticien" superior to any tricks we have ever
seen ; and the peformance of " The learned birds"
soinethiegalmest beyond:belief The
.- rofewur is
in noway inferior to Frikell or Houdin ; and as t'he
French Government recently availed themselves of
the great talents, in natural magic, of Houdin,
in reducing to submission the Ka byles, whose magi-
cians were so completely outdone by the " French
Prestidigitateur," so we think it would be wise in
our authorities to retain the services of this trio of
illustrious illusioniso, with the view of bringing
the Chinese to a sense of the inferiority of their
magicians in the presence .of the Western necro-
mancers. In diplomacy, heretofore, they have
outwitted us. In natural magic, however, we are
greatly in advance of them.
