in place. and the last of the dirt
cleared away. Last Sunday AS, 900 per-
sons were admitted at franc head,
and the day after 6S, 600. Thus the
Exhibition in two days made $28, 900.
But these were fete days, and conse-
auently exceptional days. Neverthe-
less there are many other days to come
when the receipts will be equally large.
We are having Just now an orgie, so
to speak, of art. Besides the wonderful
international collection Of paintings
and statuary at the Grand Exhibition,
we have the Annual Art Exhibition at
the Palace of Industry, on the Champs
EIysees: the exhibition of the works of
Ingres, at the Palace of Fine Arts the
exhibition of the works of the French
School at Rome, at the same Palace,
and finally ali the Museum, public and
private, of any importance which have
been thrown open to the public. III
there are any students of art who wish
TO get urfeit of their profession they
| had better come to Paris now.
We are likely to be overrun here with
American art of another kind. First,
we are to have the grand combined cir
Gus companies of Spalding, Bidwell &
Co., who will certainly excel all others,
for the Americans have gained repu-
tatiOn for superiority which is no long
er contested. Then we are to have MIR.
Charles ThOrne with a theatrical and
negro minstrel company. They are
| looking for hall, and find trouble thus
far in installing themselves. They
would have done well to have brought
their house with them. Blind Tom,
the pianist. is already performing, and
draws respectable houses. Menken, is
still with us, but leaves IN few days
for Vienna. A Miss CoZett, who is an
nounced as an American, is doing the
Mazeppa business at the Hippodrome,
and so far as mere hoTsemanship goes,
she is the equal of her brilliant prede-
cessor. Then we are to have Mr..
States and Miss Harris at the Italian
Opera Mile. Patti leaves to day for
London. But her sister Carlotta is to
sing soon at the Theatre Lyrique, and
she has never been heard before In Par
is. The Red, White and Blue, the
miniature ship of Captain Hudson,
which crossed the ocean last summer,
is now on exhibition here at the Pom
pier Palace built by the Prince Napo-
leon In the Avenue Montague, and
never did more discordant idea enter
a mans head than that of exhibiting
this specimen of New World art and
energy in palace dedicated to the ex-
hibition of the most remote specimens
of art known to the world. A smart,
modern, New York sailing craft exhib-
tied in the Temple of Diomede of Pom
pier One might imagine that they
would swear at each other all day long.
But the Captain is making money with
his exhibition, and that is the princi-
pie thing. He deserves millions. Last
of all, l should not forget that We are
promised the speedy arrival of bill
lard player from Arkansas, who is
called the Terrible Cue" and who
plays all day without missing a shot j
Nobody. we are told, ever pretends to
p .ay with him, because when he once
gets the cue in his hand, his antagonist
never gets another shot

AROyaI Man Eater.

The negro King, George Peppel, of
Benny, proposes to visit Paris A cor
respondent of the London Sun says:
Among the illustrious strangers that
will grace tile Exhibition is sovereign
of note, the negro king OF Benny, who.
it is said, has palace constructed OF
the bones of his enemies, and who can
give a human skull to 100. 600 persons
TO drink from as with the loving cup.
The kingdom of Benny is situated to
the north of the coast OF Guinea, be-
tween the Niger aud one of its coutlu-
ents. 1t has an army of 10000 men,
and 100 pieces OF artillery of English
manufacture. The habits OF the peo-
pie. says a French writer, are very sim
pie, and If they do not love one anoth-
er they love the Europeans-partlcu-
| larly after their flesh has been cooked
upon the gridiron, aud If they be fat.
This description reminds me of ques-
ton put by traveller to chief OF one
of the tribes of these niggers.
The traveller asked if the chiefs peo-
ple liked the English. go, yes" said
| the chieT; 'and SO do II have eaten
some of them" They seem to illustrate
the admonition TO Glove thy nelghboI
as thyself." His niger majesty, adds
the account, has not eaten any human
beings since his journey to London in
1851, aud the lords of his court have
followed the example OF abstinence
The people, however, still maintain
their primitive taste; but, by virtue Of
a recent law, no native of Benny car
touch human FISH without the written
permission of his lord and MASTER
The black king, it is said, will bring
with him plenty of gold in barrels; SC
no doubt, he will be welcome.
