Panorama OF California.

Remember this splendid work is to
be unrolled to our citizens this even
ing at the City Hall. If it meets
with the success here that it has wher-
ever exhibited, we advise those who
want seats to gs-early. The St. Louis
Republican speaking of it says:
THE MIRROR OF CALIFORNIA
This mammoth and splendid Panorama
deserves all the praise that has been
bestowed upon 1t. Intelligent Cali
fornians pronounce the scenes striking
ly correct and true in every particular,
and as for ourselves, We know they are
beautiful. Hundreds of our citizens
have been unable to gain admission to
the hall, capacious as it is, the past two
evenings, every seat being filed at an
carly hour, proving it as attractive as
the gentlemanly manager could desire.
A want OF decorum is often urged as
serious objection by ladies' who would
otherwise be glad to attend exhibitions
OF a respectable character in this par
ticular we have never seen order in as
large an assembIage so perfectly and
rigldly enforced, ana yet apparently
without an effort, as in this. No doubt
great portion OF the Dr's popularity
is gained from the quiet orderly and
pleasant manner in which he conducts
his exhibitions. 10 those who have
not yet seen this fine work, there is
one chance more, as it will remain this
evening. TO early then if you want
