THEY CONE WITH SONGS TO GREET U.s.
-Clark and WhitmOres minstrels show al
City Hall on Saturday evening next. Their
principal advertisement is neat little pa
per called the Minstrel Adrocate from which
extract our friend Clark's salutatory
which tells the story of his entertainment
better than we can:
Others may romance about Georg c
NJ Clark, Hank White, and others, but
we, remembering the little Ratchet of
the immortal George Washington, shall
coniine ourselves to stern realities, like a
veritable Bounderly or Gradgrin.
Having concluded our tour with Bailey
d Co. 5 Circus, and having been in. Lee
tur business for a short time, as "a Star, -
we now once more greet our old friends,
whom we shall never forget, with the best
company we have ever put on the road. Our
experience has taught us that, however well
people love to laugh, they also like little
sense with the nonsense. Hence We have
engaged the best talent procurable, regard
less OF the ;. panic; paying salaries equal
to those before the crisis" We expect
this will be our last season, and have spared
no endeavors to make it the browning glory
OF our show life. Come and see u, and
then say if we have not succeeded in attain
ing our object in this respect
The best to be had, everything fresh and
novel. and no endeayors spared, have always
been the motto of the proprietors of the
Nhitmore * Clark's Minstrels What has
been Is now, and shall continue, if we ever
make another tour. The goodly show fame
OF l.. J. Hardy and George NJ. Clark shall
never be furnished by cheap entertain
ment. Whenever they announce an enter
tainment, that entertainment shall be all
that Is promised

BRILLIANT SUccEss.-It is permitted to
few men or companies to achieve aeknowl-
edged superiority in any important position
of business. The present generation has
witnessed stupendous rivalry in several
branches of industry, and notably the
sewing machine business. Amid multi
tude of competitors, steadily and surely the
Wheeler Wilson Company held their way
from the beginning, upon fixed and honor
able principles. Long since, their leading
position in America was established.
Abroad, at London, in 1862, they won the
highest premiums; at Paris, in 1867, they
distanced eighty-two competitors, and were
awarded the highest premium, the only
Gold Medal for Sewing Machines exhibited;
and lastly amid unparalleled competition.
followed the splendid triumphs at Vienna,
noted in our advertising columns.
