THE GREAT C1Rcus.-Relying solely
upon our exchanges, we must believe
that Dan Rice has reached the crowning
ambition of his life-that Of sole man
ager and proprietor of the largest and
most expensive arenic exhibition in this
country. His monster troupe of gym
nasts. acrobats. equestrians and trapeze
performers, entails cost that would be
considered next to bankruptcy by any
less wealthy aud energetic manager than
Dan Rice. The veteran clown seems to
have profitted by his thirty yenrs' expe-
rience, and now introduces only such
talent ns have national reputation.
His trained horses. educated mules and
wonderful troupe OF performing dogs
have special interest to oil lovers of
cultivated instinct, and in Norfolk the
exhibition was attended by the public
schools en- mdsss. The great canvass is
heated by immense furnaces. and is
warm aud comfortable This is Dan
Rice's first visit to this section Of the
South. and our citizens can rest assured
that he is the genuine "Old original
Jacobs" They open on the 10Th, con-
tinuing the 2Oth-two exhibitions each
day.
