Barnum's Roman HIppodrome. /.

In our advertising columns will be found
brief outline of BARNUM's Famous Hip
podrome, which will make its appearance
in Toledo, on Wednesday, June 80. BAR
NUM- is one of the showmen who believe
in not doing the same thing the same way
twice and, consequently, has added great
number of novel features to the entertain
ment which he produces this season, in
addition to the attractions which secured
him SO much applaus and financial success
last year. Wherever the show has appear
ed the press is lavish in its praise of the
attractions presented. We present below
a clipping from the Philadelphio Enquir-
er on the appearance of the Hippodrome
in that city, April lS:
The display far excels that of last year,
several new features being introduced. The
performance opened with the "Fete at Pc
kin, grand reception to the Emperor Ha-
anti, seated in a royal palanquin borne by
mandarins and followed by procession OF
Tartar cavalry. Mongol, Mantchou and
Kathaian soldiery, ladies magnificently
costumed, lantern bearers, warriors &c.
The scene presented was extremely grand
Following this came the wonderful per.
formances of Satsuma and little All Right
in their ladder balancing and other acts
Then the races commenced, the first being
fiat race by five young ladies on their
English thoroughbreds, followed by the
Roman standing race-two horses abreast
a chase for life and other exciting eques-
trian contests, including chariot and hur-
| die races. The buffalo hunt, the snow
shoe race, the hurdle race, &c, attracted
| great attention.
Madame D'Atalie, the female Samson
was remarkable in her great cannon feat, a'
were also Lazelle, Millson and Master La,
zelle in their gynnastic performances.
The most exciting race was that between
the English and American jockeys. Tn,
race by monkeys ON ponies created consid
erable merriment, while that OF twenty-one
horses at liberty was wild and dashing

NJ. c. & L. NJ. .ROad.-There now seems
to be fair prospect of the early compile
ton of the Mansfield, Coldwater & Lake
Michigan R. r. to Napoleon at least.
Hon. CHAs. FOSTER has been appointed
Trustee, with instructions to complete the
Road to this point. Upon inquiry of Mr.
FOSTER, the Fostoria RerieC learns ''that
the NJ. G. & l.. NJ. Company have ap-
pointed him their agent to collect the sub
scriptiOns at Fostoria and Toledo and in
termedinte points, as well as to receive new
subscriptions, and has, also, been invested
with authority to make contracts for the
completion of the road-bed 10 Napoleon,
the cost of which is estimated at $50, 600
that there is available for this purpose in
unpaid subscriptions, about $4,000.
1t is understood that the Pittsburg Com
pany will lay the balance of the iron, COM
pete and operate the road to Napoleon.
When Mr.. F. is assured of this part be-
yond any question, he will at once take
steps looking to the discharge of the trust
assigned him, providing too much of his
time will not be required.
1t is probable that a meeting will be
called soon at Weston, when the parties
interested will meet and determine the
matter finally.
Some $4,000 in additional subscriptions
will have to be raised, which we are as
sured, will be forthcoming. We look upon
the early completion of this line to Napol-
con as altogether probable, which, when
done. will at once be operated by the

OF this Country, its grasshoppers and star

are called here, have almost entirely Left
this valley and farmers are busy replant-
ing corn, which they say will mature and
turn out good crop. Oats and wheat are
about half crop. The Chinch Bug, as
they are called, were very destructive to
small grain. Potatoes are a splendid crop
in this vicinity.
Somewhat to my surprise 1 am very we'll
pleased with the appearance of the Coun-
try and che People, who are almost entire
ly from Ohio and Illinois. Were it not for
the drought of 1873 and the Hoppers last
year they would be in very good circum-
stances. Those who have had means to
stay and put in a crop this year will come
ont all right, but much destitution and
suffering will be endured until the corn
crop will be gathered. Labor is a dreg
no work of any,kind and the country if
full OF people travelling eastward. begging
and stealing The West will be very dull
for some time for laborers, but men who
desire TO farm can secure good farms here
for very small consideration. This

favorable season this country can beat the

gloss and freshness Of youth. Thin
hair is thickened, fallen hair checked,
and badness often, though not always,
cured by its use. Nothing can restore
the hair where the follicles are de-
stroyed, or the glands atrophied and
decayed; but such as remain can be
saved by this application, and stimu~
lated into activity, SO that new
growth of hair is produced. Instead
of fouling the hair with pasty sedi-
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
It's occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning grey or falling of, and
consequently prevent badness. The
restoration of vitality it gives to the
scalp arrests and prevents the forma-
ton of dandruff, which Is often SO un-
cleanly and offensive. Free from those
deleterious substances which make
some preparations dangerous and inju-
rious to the hair, the Vigor can only
benefit but not harm it. If wanted
merely for a HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can be found SO desirable.
Containing neither oil nor dye, it does
not soil white cambria, and yet lasts
long on the hair, giving it rich, glossy
lustre, and grateful perfume.
