Barnum's Travelling Worlds Fair
SHOW.

To the general chorus of praise with
which this colossal amusement enterprise,
which is 10 exhibit in this city on Satur-
day. the 18th inst Is everywhere greeted
the Springfield Ohio, Dmiy Republic, of
the lith inst, adds its voice Us follows:
AS in the past the thousands who
have witnessed hi, exhibitions have
been fully satisfied; YES, more than
satisfied, 80 this year those who have
seen his Great Worlds Fair are en-
thuSia>tic in its prai.e-, being better
pleased than ever, Notwithstanding
| they had anticipated more than here
tolorc, because of the reputation of the
great Snowman. But how could they
fail to be satisfied? How could they fail
to join in pra>ing this rs the greatest
show in the world? For such it Is, COM
binng rs it does, more talent and u
greater number OF rare animals than
any exhibition ever presented on the face
of the globe.
The tact of the matter Is, Mr.. Barnum
has accomplished what he declared he
would years ago. He has elevated the
snow business to place among honora-
bic and praiseworthy ayocations, and
oilers an entertainment which, not only
pleasing, but really profitable and no
parent need hesitate to 90 to the Great
Worlds Fair with his whole family; in-
deed, it is the duty of all parents to 90
and take their children with them, that
they may have a day to garner up in
their memory rs n day among days.

A SPECIAL dispatch to the Boston Globe
says that a conservative member of the legis-
islature publishes statement TO show that
when the legislature was convened in special
session by Governor Warmoth, December 10,
1872, for the avowed purpose of declaring the
result of the election for Governor and lieu
tenant Governor, it met in joint session the
second day of the session to count the vote for
Governor and declare the result. There was
quorum present of members, returned as
elected by both Boards, among others Booth,
Voorhees,, Mcmillan, Daig c. Campbell,
jerks, Noland, and other Fusion Senators,
and over twenty Fusion members of the
House, most of whom left the legislature a
day or two after. The journal shows that
this joint session did count the votes and f.
nally declared Kellogg elected Governor.
Afterward, at the regular session, in 1878,
most of the Fusion members having in the
meantime returned, another count was had,
and Kellogg declared elected; but the fact
that the first count was held in the presence
of an undisputed legal. quorum, cannot be
disputed. He also makes the point that Kel-
logg received nearly 5000 more votes than the
rest of his ticket, according even to Fusion
returns.
