On. KANE's ARCTIC VOYAGES, AT MOZART
HALL.-During its sojourn in this city it
has created an interest seldom given to PAN
oramic exhibitions Of this we feel conf
dent, from the fact ofits continued popular
ity, and the admiration which has been ex-
pressed by all who have witnessed it. -
We can see aurora borealis, the mirage
and mock suns, bastelled icebergs by moon
light, piled up hammocks, made golden by
the sun, and all the phenomena and won
ders OF that CLINE, with much more pleasure,
with our summer clothes on, than the Are
tic navigators did when encased in furs and
eating two or three brace of ducks at meal
This indeed was to be expected, as the whole
continuous voyage was executed by artists
from original drawings taken on the spot by
the various explorers.
