DAN RIcE's GREAT SHow.-The
amusement-lovingp portion of our commu-
nifty will rejoice to hear that Dan Rice,
the patriotic Snowman, Of America, is
coming with his Great Show, andwill vis-
it Delaware on Tuesday next, July 26th.
Though Dan Rice, by common consent,
is recognized as the greatest professional
jester of the age, he has surrounded him
self this season with novelties that scarce
ly yield to himself in interest and attrac-
ton. Ignoring the hackneyed routine of
circus, he has boldly struck out in a new
path, and organized an entertainment alb
solutely unique, original and peculiar
Trained animals and the development of
brute instincts are now his hobby. All
lovers of that noblest of animals, the
horse, should not fail to witness the re-
markable performances of the blind horse
Excelsior, jr., who is pronounced by the
press everywhere to be the paragon of
beauty, as well as of intellect. This is no
circus, nor theater, nor is it menagerie,
but an exhibition of highly trained ami
mails. Remember the day-Tuesday,
July 26th.
