GRAND PARADE-Haight g. Cham


bers grand equestrian brigade, led
b. band of music, all mounted on
splendid steeds and followed by the
cages of wild beasts and Sam Lath-
rop's pony express, paraded the
streets yesterday forenoon, making
one of the handsomest displays of the
kind we have ever seen in the city.
The procession was, Of course, follow
ed by a vast conoourse of Young
America, rustics and Ethiopeans
The audiences both afternoon and
evening were as we predicted very
large, the vast pavilion at night, es-
pecially, being crowded. The perform
ancess SO far as we saw them, were
generally highly creditable, and many
of them, of very superior merit. The
riding and leaping was highly pleas
ing, and the performances on the trap
exc were wonderful, many new and
daring feats being introduced. The
stock is of a superior character, and
well trained. The geological depart
ment was highly interesting, the ami
mails and birds being all very fine
specimens. The proprietors propose
to revisit. this city soon again and
make a longer stay. They exhibit at
Newburg to-day. at Greensboro to-
morrow, and at Rockport5 on Thurs
day. Altegether,it is grand show"
and the proprietors and leading men
are pleasant gentlemen. 8Va 1blHe7h

man, his wife and five children. At
ter the boat struck, and it was found
she was sinking. the husband, with a
most refreshing tenderness for his
mortal body, nimbly jumped on Shore,

fate. The wife with the true sheroisn m

boat foated down the, stream. They
all landed clear of the water. and
climbed up the bank like so many

safely ashore, the mother leaped
ashore herself. As she reached the
