OLD JOHN RoBINsoN.-The Mammoth
Exhibition of this veteran Snowman will
be in our city next week, Wednesday,
June 2Sth. Here is what the Cincinnati
Commercial says Of it:
The menagerie this year is certainly
richer in attractive novelties than ever be-
fore-lncluding a splendid male giraffe
that cost over $4,000; rhinoceros,
weighing no less than four tons, the larg
est animal of Its species ever exhibited in
this country; school" of sea lions
from Alaska, unwieldy and formidably-
tusked monsters; zebra, remarkable for
the beauty of its vclvety stripping; a glgan-
tic ostrich: bulls from Burmah, and hump
backed yaks from the steppes of Tartary !;
hartbeests and Glands; families of African
and Asiatic lions with whelps; corpse-de-
vouring hyenas and beautifully spotted
leopards; herds of Indian elephants and
caravans of Arabian camels; cabiabara
wild wart hog from the African jungles
and, most curious of all, lively unicorn,
in all respects the very realization of the
one-horned monster spoken of in Holy
Writ. But, besides these attractive studies
in Natural History, the audience may en-
joy the spectacle of such gymnastic and
equestrian feats as will astonish even ha-
bitual circus goers. The double somcr-
sault of Robert Stickney over twenty
horses, and subsequently over four ele-
plants; the challenge menage act of Miss
Emma Lake; the graceful riding of the
pretty equestrienne, Miss Christine; Will
sons four.horse bareback riding; Whit
ney and Davenport's trapeze act; Ell Nino
Eddie's tlght-rope performance; Slnman's
"globe act;" Robbins pad-riding, and
many other wonderful exhibitions beng
included in the diurnal show. The circus
last evening was prodigiously. successful,
and the music, one of its best features, of
a higher order than that usually perform
ed under canvas.

THE CASTING OF THE CANNON.
city has long felt the necessity of a piece
of ordnance Of adequate size and voice
to assist in working off the excess of en-
thusiasm on occasions of public rejoicing,
celebrations, &c. Frank Megow, the en-
ergetic proprietor of the Star Foundry,
conceived the idea of supplying this need
by moulding and casting a cannon at his
establishment, entirely on his own re-
sponsibility. With Frank to plan, is to
act, and accordingly ON Tuesday of this
week, large crowd of curious people
gathered at the Foundry to witness the
founding of the gun. The operation be-
ing little beyond the usual routine of
the works, it attracted more than ordina-
ny interest and curiosity to see the out
come of Franks experiment. Everything
being in readiness, steam was let ON the
engine, the fan began to blow, the fires
to roar, the furnace to glow, the work
men in the meantime, stripped to the
shirt, making preparations for the time
when their services would be in active
demand. At the end of half an hour the
furnace was tapped, and the molten iron
began to flow into the ladies in which it
was conveyed to the storing kettles imme-
diately over the mouth of the mould
When these were filled to the brim with
1900 to 1000 pounds of liquid metal,
then came the decisive moment which
would prove whether Frank had "made a
spoon or spoiled horn" Four or five
stalwalt workmcn with faces red and
streaming with perspiration by reflection
from the seething mass of iron, grasping
the handles of the kettles, and began to
pour the contents into the yawnlng lnlets
of the mould. The kettle exhausted, the
monster demanded more iron. Then the
furnace was tapped again, and gave
down its glowing stream of molten metal
which was hurridly carried to the mould,
and poured down its Unsuitable throat
BY this means the mould was at last filled,
and the crowd departed. The next day,
Invested of its out side casing of sand,
a perfect cannon came from the mould,
and Franks anxiety was past. The gun
is about feet long and IS inches in di-
ameter at the breech. 1t will have bore
of 3! inches 1t will be taken to the
Manufacturing Company's shops and
bored out, after which we shall let it
speak for itself, and for the energy, the
skill, and public spirit of Frank Megow,
its founder.

THE following sparkling corruscatlon
of wit appears in the Conservative this
week:
"The faithful were inwardly mad on
receipt OF the news of the nomination of
Hayes, although they tried hard to smoth-
er their indigestion; but occasionally it
broke out and then-well, we will draw
the veil, but let an inquisitive public
guess"
The possibly new method of treating a
painful disease, limited at above, is COM
mended to the notice of the medical pro-
fession. If indigestion can be smother
ed" a suffering world ought to know it.
1t may be also of some interest to know
that in certain cases indigestion is an
eruptlve disease, though it is not assuring
to hear that when 1t "breaks out" it is
necessary to "draw the veil' and suffer
the imagination to supply the rest. 1t is
evident, however, from the above para
graph, that our neighbor does not always
''draw the veil" over eruptions of feeble

FINED AND JUGGED.-The wife of SIM
Mead after years of privation and sorrow,
in consequence of the proclivity of her
worthless husband for the ABSORPTION of
forty rod whisky, has come to the con-
clusion that forbearance has ceased to be q
virtue, and has declared war upon the men
and influences that have made hun who
should have been her staff and protector, q
burden and reproach to her. She filed
information with the Mayor on Tuesday
morning, against one Shoenhut, who keeps
a doggery on Chatham ST., for selling
liquor to her husband. The Marshal
searched the premises and found liquor
in bottles. Shocnhut appeared for trial
next day, and was convicted and fined
$50 and costs, which refusing to pay, he
was marched off to Jail. We understand
that Mrs. Mead will now proceed against
Shoenhut and his premises for damages,
which we fervently hope she may recover
in swinging amount. She also intends
to ego for" all others who shall hereafter
sell liquor to her husband. In SO doing
she will have the support and sympathy
of all good people. We pity the man or
woman who would not bid her God speed
in such contest.

THERE was quite ripple OF excitement
in town last week pending the result of
the Cincinnati Convention. When the
nominations were finally received by tele.
graph on Friday afternoon, the friends of
Mr.. Blaine, who had suffered the idea TO
get possession of them that the defeat of
their candidate was not among the posi-
bilitics, were disappointed and could not
help showing it, But when this first nat
ural feeling had subsidized, and the sober
second thought had had its influence, all
our Republicans with one accord joined
in the judgment that the Convention did
the best thing possible, and that the nom
nations were the very strongest that could
be made. The Democrats were compelled
to acknowledge this, and to declare that
they were disappointed at the result, and
not agreeably, either. The feeling of
confidence and enthusiasm is strengthening
every day, and the evidences are not want
ing that many heretofore estranged from it
will now come back to the party to work
for its success with the old time vim and
enthusiasm.
