great exciting attraction of the Rosherville Gardens, at Graves-
end, near London.
The Catageloseum, or "Temple of Laughter," contains nu-
merous groups of figures of life size, moving in the most gro-
tesque, but life-like manner, relieved by appropriate scenery.
So pleasing are the movements of these figures, that they have
elicited the applause of thousands, and have received the eulo-
giums of must of the metropolitan papers, especially of the
London Times.
