Next Friday.

By advertisement elsewhere in this pa.
per, IL will be seen that Burr Robbins
great circus and menagerie will exhibit
here on Friday next. The st. Clair
Democrat says OF this show;
Col. Burr Robbins, proprietor, exhibit
ted In this place to the largest assembly
of people ever in our village on any SINH
lar occasion. The number OF the aite--
noon audience was estimated at 1000 and,
in our own judgment, we would say the
figures are about correct. The great ex-
hibition is the model one Of the day in
every respect-in fact we but speak the
universal sentiment OF our people, when
we say that it is to-day one Of the best
shows in America, and far
superior TO anything of the kind ever
seen. Mr.. Robbins, the proprietor, is not
only an experienced Snowman, but a
very pleasant and agreeable gentleman,
whose arduous duties are shared by his
accomplished and kind hearted lady.
What Mr.. and Mrs. Robbins are them>
selves, they demand the same of their
whole crops OF employees, viz: fair and
honorable dealing, and the greatest civil
ity to everybody. We never saw more
orderly and well behaved COM
pany of ladies' and gentlemen
with any travelling exhibition.
The menageric consists OF choice selec-
ton OF animals, birds, ETC., and the ring
performance, in point OF skill and science,
IL of verv instructive and amusing
character. We cannot further particular
ize, but will conclude by repeating what
everybody says-and that must be true
that the whole exhibition is grand and
complete, and we cordially recommend
il to all VINO desire the worth OF their
money.

Euersy and Enterprise.

Tue enterprise displayed, and the en~
ergy exercised by Mr.. George L. o 'Hara,
in establishing an entirely new drug
store so soon after the destruction OF Mr..
NJ. j. McGauley's establishment, OF
which Mr.. O'Hara was active manager,
excite, In those cosnizant Ut the facts,
both words of surprise and expressions Of
commentator. Tie new establishment,
the PhGnix Drug Store, is in the brick
building corner OF Eighteenth street and
Commercial avenue, and, as well in its
furnishings aud arrangement as in It's
stock, it Is second to no house OF kindred
character in the city. The stock OF drugs
is full and complete in every particular,
and every article is unquestionably pure.
The supply Of patent medicines, pertum.
cries, toilet articles, etc, etc., is one Of
the best assorted and most at
tractive ever brought to Cairo. The
prescription department will be pre-
sided over by Mr.. O'Hara in per.
sou, and his well-established reputation
as askilled pharmacist furnishes the pub
lie the most absolute guarantee that pres
scriptions sent to the Phoenix Drug Store
will be carefully and intelligently com,
pounded. His prescription scales are the
most accurately and sensitively adjusted
to be found in Cairo. But 90 and inspect
the new drug store for yourself.
In the short compass of a local item nc
adequate idea of Its completeness can be
conveyed. The proprietor will extend
You acOrdial welcome and give you am
pie assurance OF his ability to supply
every demand in his line, that is likely to
be GRATED by the wants of the Cairo
market. He is a courteous, active gentle.
man, and no one questions his ability to
successfully ard intelligently conduct the
business; he has the most flattering au-
spices established for himself.
