C1RcUs-The circus of Murray s Stone
arrived and gave their first two perform
ances yesterday. 1t was one of the neat
est in its dressing and appointments which
we have ever had. : The riding is also very
fine. Mr.. Henry is perhaps the most ele-
CANT rider of his day; We have never seen
one that excelled him in grace and skill in
preserving an easy and wcll-poised attitude
upon rapidly-moving horse. His teats
Of sleight of hand whilst riding are
quite astonishing. Mademoiselle Jeanette
is an elegant lady rider. The whole
performance was remarkably genteel,
artistic, and triumphant. The grotesque
acts were very laughable; amongst them a
ludicrous scene Of balancing old slouchea
hats afforded much fun. The variations
upon these old hats were very ingenious;
In short, the circus is remarkably hne, ana
cannot fail to interest all who see 1t. The
performances will continue to-day and to-
morrow afternoon and night. ,s
