mancers have performed their strange feats
in the presence Of our citizens and have re-
ceped the commentator OF all who have

customed to such things may be disposed

turning from one Of the solrees :-' Father
who gives them the po1eer 10 Do those thines!''
Those who are familiar with "m9gic" will
readily account for most of the tricks per
formed. Still it requires great skill to per
form them accurately. Mr. F. informs us
that he has been twenty years in the occu-
paton-long enough TO have made fortune
had he not engaged in the printing business.
