THE CATAGELOSEUM,

EASTHAM FERRY PLEASURE GROUNDS

THE Proprietor of these celebrated and much ad-
mired Rural Gardens begs to announce to the Public that
he has succeeded, at a great expense, in procuring this extra-
ordinary Exhibition, which has for several seasons been the
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-
ffiums of most of the metropolitan papers, especially of the
Londot Times.
The Figures of theCatageloseum are arranged in groups.
Group 1 represents the Atelier of Mr. Tobias Hobbs, a re-
sirer of dilapidated understandings, with his Parish Appren-
tice and Assistant Shoeblack.
Group 2 gives a vivid notion of the occupations of Miss Lu-
cretia Birchum, the talented Conductress of a Preparatory
Seminary for the education of Young Gentlemen.
Group 3 represents Mr. Annibal Sharp, an itinerant Sizzer
Grinder, who is giving practical lessons in his art; accom-
panied by his friend and ally, Mr. Daniel Sly, the Tinker.
Group 4.—Drawing-room Interior, with a glance of matri-
monial felicity—Mr. Ezekiel Squeezum, a Retired Parish
S Officer

Bonnet Mak with his

young Wife, the late Miss Carolina

Group 5.--Village Scene, the foreground occupied by Samuel
Slack, the Cost ermon ger returning from market, with his affec-
tionate Wife and obstinate Donkey.
_ Group 6 represents the Interior of a Smithy, with Mr. Uriah lronsides, the Farrier, and his subordinates, hard at work.
_ Group 7.—A Marble Mason's Yard and Tombstone Manu-
factory, Tobias Tugg and Partner industriously engaged in the
science of Stone Cutting.
The Catageloseum will be open daily to visitors during the
season.
