RAREY's ExHB1T1oS.-The eagerly antiei-
pated exhibition Of Mr.. Rarey's skill in tam
ing vicious horses, takes place this evening at
Bryan Hall Mr.. Rarey has secured for this
occasion two or three Of the ugliest specimens
Of eqninity in the city, one Of them an ami
NAL never yet harnessed, even, SO savage are
his propensities. MIR. however, has full con-
tdence In his ability to master him, although
the contest must, Of consequence, be 4 severe
une. Upon this occasion, he will also exhibit
the halter and muzz1e used in eonquering the
renowned Cruiser, and will explain his method
as be progresses, in an interesting, running
lecture.
Suitable barriers Will be erected to prevent
the chance Of the horses getting off the stage.
Mr.. Rarey is accustomed to dealing with such
| subjects before crowded houses, and says la,
dies need have nothing to fear. Reserved seatE
| in the most comfortable part Of the hall can
be secured By those who apply carly at MI.
Higgins's Music store, and at the hall
| In this connection the following letter cx'
| plains itself:
Mr. RART, 7 fremont House:

supposed that Europe held prescriptiye me
nopoly Of all that was perfect in soaps, an
that anything like successful competitlo
with 1er world-renoWned productions w9
altogether out Of the question. Since til
Introduction Of the famous Cocoainc SoaI
"a compound Of honey, glycerine and coco

r antly expelled. It is universally acknow
edged that for purity, beauty and fragranc

lathcr, it surpasses all others, and for tt

I stands without 4 rival. We submit for exau
