we're concluded, the managers Of The men
sgsrie we're called for, to make IN exhibit
u the Eaansisi eosdssiss Of the travelling

responded TO the cell. lie represented the
show TO be 10 We. <r''ical condition, and
though. ,hs, to he Apayins institution,
sotae additional saima!s were absolutely
necessary; q sunk, - an emblem Of Dem

We did not learn the names but We have
the utmost confidence, 10 the ssgacity Of the
managers, aud doubt not that oil the AMI
mails, Ike the one mentioned above, will be
purely Democratic. Tie managers repre-
sent tie expense Of feeding the animals
through the winter, to be enormous, but as
they rxpsct to winter near the head waters
os some stream where salt 10 abundant,
they have wisely concluded to substitute
saw dust for oats, and think that. with M
abundance Of salt, their stock, which is not
If the most knowing kind, will not perceive
any difference in the kind Of food.
1t j, not known, the managers Informed
~, when the nest public exhibition will be
gwen, but circumstance, will compel them
to exhibit next time in the open air. They
dtdn'. inform Us how they had lost their
tent, but We surmiss that It was attached q,
Crescent, to secure the payment OF certain
small bills, too numerous to mention.
After the managers had concluded their
statement, Judge q. Awful Barbecue, was
called for, bu, declinod speaking, on the
ground that he Was unpr.pared to addres.

that he had just walked up street with two
Republicans. which, he said, was enough to
make any decent nan sick, but, strange 10
tell, the Judge appeared to be in the enjoy
ment Of bis usual good health.
Some member Of the company stated tina,
the show business had been outrageousiy
s!andered, and proceeded thereupon to de-
nouacs the sanderer in very unchristan
Ike manner, and finally concluded By quo
ting from that patron saint Of Democracy,
Rev. Henry Clay dean, that ''the contents
VI the mans heart, if emptie1 into bis stom-
sch, would produce black vomis." Such
medicine, administered to some men, might
have that effect, bu, il the Homeopathic doc.
trins be- true, that "liks cures ike,' We
think tina. such dose might be taken by
some Of the show company, with very bene-
fetal results.
After the regular business had been all
transacted, a few general remarks were
made by different individuals, in which The
unity and harmony that prevailed 10 the
party, a few years ago, was held up IN strik-
ing contrast with her present distracted and
divided condition then, A. the hour for
Adjournment had arrived, the vast concnurse
Of Squa,ters dled out IN solemn order,
each repeating as hs went, the words Of
that very appropriate old lynn
