NIBLO's GARDEN.-How many people on favor
able night would be attracted to the Fascinating

grows and water flows. AS for the execution OF the
various parts in this performance they are perfectly
satisfactory to the spectator, and STILL like little
Oliver he Is disposed to ask for more. AS sam Slick
would say, sThere is great deal OF human nature In
mankind after ALL for even the church that has the
prettiest gals draws the most worshppers"
