geric. museum, &c., will exhibit in Wahala on
next Monday, October goth. TO give our read
era an idea of tho coming exhibition and its
vast proportions wo copy the following notice of
it from the Louisville Courier-Journal
Tho long expected arrival Of W. ". Coles
circus, menagcric, museum and trained animal
exposition OF wonders took place yesterday.
The show business now seems 10 run to consoli-
dntions, in which the aim is 10 include old style
circus, menageries, museums and an aggregation
OF shows exceeding the smnl affairs of q few
years ago rs much rs can be imagined In car
rying out his plan Mr.. Cole did not stop with
merely one or two collections, but gathered in at
once the Great New York Circus, Trained Ami
mails, &c; that of the Famous New Orleans
Mcnagerc, Museum, &c., and colossal aggrega-
ton OF the Worlds Wonder Exhibition, massed
in one grand city Of tents Of monster proper
tions. In order to keep pace with tho times
MIR. Cole has reduced his price of admission for
adults to 90 cents; children under 8 years Of
age rs cents SO great has been his success
since tho Inauguration of cheap rates for the
people, that ho has been compelled to enlarge
his exhibition tents to more than double their
iormcr cnpncity 10 accommodate the tens of
thousands who paronize this great show daily
Mt oil points where it exhibits. Naturally, a
street procession of exhibition like this is
sufficient to attract no small attention Of itself.
The parade yesterday more than justified all
that hus been said Of the show. Tho charots
and splendid costumes, with NIL the pharapher-
MALTA OF CIRCUS, were &C :!c mos: elaborate and
costly description; but the success of the affair
is much owing to the artistic taste of the pro-
Piictor as the lavish expense which bo hns
entered into. The performance in the tents was
fully worthy Of the parade in public. The
geological departments were fully represented
The rare wild beasts, birds and reptiles tho
trained animals, magnificent specimens of
oceanic lions in The sub.aqua,ic mansions. made

dlsprovo tho late "a Ward" that the show
business has by no means ''seen its parmest
day" We commend W. W. Colc's great show

the South.
Tho Grccnvillc Daily lNe,cs, in alluding to
the ipmunity given to Republican ofsce hold
crs Where restitution is made and designations
rendered speaks as follows in regard to i'm.
plicutcd Democrats:
1t is said that many prominent Democrats
| arc implicated, and it is deemed best to let
all cscupe without trial. We do not believe
this. We think that our Democratic State
officials are disposed to do their duty to tho
commonwealth, no mattor who may be hurt
thereby. We believe that they. with the
great bulk OF the people. would punish
Democrat who bad been sharing tho pluuder
OF the thieves to tho utmost extent of the law.
II :ny Democrats Of the Stnte are implicated
they sl."u'd be the first prosecuted and the
last to oscu;ne. The people demand this and
they will have .'othing less. and if any guilty
member Of the Dc,.. Hcrntic party escapes, thoy
will hold thoir public I-ervants to strict ac-
countability.
