HowE'S GREAT LoNpoN Circus AND
MENAGERIE.-This wonderful combiua'
ton which is to visit our city, on We'd
neaday, July 23d, has won the highest
praises from the press wherever exhib-
tied. Not paid "puffs," but spontaue-
GUS certificates OF Its great worth. As
sample of these, the Pittsburgh CON-
mcrcial OF July q, has the following:
The visits OF Howe's Great London
Circus and Mensgerie to places in the
vicinity Of Pittsburgh have been in the
nature OF triumphal marches on their
psrt, and OF ovations on the part OF the
people visited.
At McKeesport yesterday, notwith-
standing the extreme heat, the spacious
pavillions was crowded both afternoon
and evening, and the universal verdict
was, that this circus and exhibition Of
trained animals are the best ever seen
hereabouts. The FIVE elephants were
introduced in their uovel and wonderful
tableau act, in which they pile them
selves into pyramid and 60 through
other ludicrous acts, in every particular
filling the premises made to the public
10 the bills and posters.
Upward of five thousand people
witnessed the exhibitions at McKees-
port, and nobody was dissatisfied.
Every feature presented was fully ap-
preciated and loudly spplsuded. The
nine performing hyenss and the six
Royal Bengal tigers were put through
their PAGES by the trainers. and awaken.
ed much interest among naturalists and
others. In the circus pavilion, which
is quite distinct from the menagerie,
Mile. Dockrill, the unequaled bareback
equestriense, Morgan, the daring hurdle
rider, the gymnaslic Romelli's, and the
irresistible clowns took the honors.

Afternoon: LIST Cor, chapter, Goth verse;
"But this l say, brethren, the time is
short" Evening: Isaiah, 1st chapter, 10
and Goth verses; If ye be willing and
obedient, we shall eat the good of the land;
but if ye refuse and rebel, We shall be de-
voured with the sword: for the mouth of
the Lord hath spoken it," Notwthstand-
ing the warmth of the day and the clouds
of dust, the church was we'll filled and
able manner in which the Bishop perform
ed his part. The choir, under the leader
ship of George A. Caldwell, assisted by
Miss Mary Crawford, on the organ, gave
great satisfaction for the short time they
had been in practice. Everything passed
off agreeably and quiet. The receipts by
collection, during the day, was $50. IA, and
the Committee has this week paid one
