This is the title to the grand con-
junction formed of Rentz' Royal Zoo
logical Collection and Arenic Exhibi-
ton, and Burr Robbins Great Ameri-
lean Menagerie, Museum and Circus.
A complete combination under the
management of Mr. Robbins. exhibited
under variou. tents, and one ticket of
admission only is required to the entire
exhibition. 1t is now famous as being
the largest and best collection of wild
animals, beasts and birds in America,
of which the Museum is replete and
contains curiosities from every part of
the Globe, all living, rare and strange.
The circus department contains
many eminent performers and peculiar
features of new and novel character.
Many of the artists are entirely ne g to
this country, and are eminent and re-
Downed in their profession abroad. 1t
is sufficient to say that the present en-
terprise is based upon rigid purpose,
fully carried out, to obtain the widest
range of arenic talent and secure the
most meritorious. exciting and amusing
sensations, governed by strict regard
for true art and merit, and entirely fir. e
from indelicacy, but appealing for pat
ronage to the higher tastes, desires and
requisites of a pure, amusement love-
ing people.
The Hippodrome is to contain the
circle for the display of remarkable
feats of strength, Grecian sports and
extraordinary endurance. A vivid
realization of the "Olympian games"
and revival of the Roman races and
pastines.
The street parade is promised to be
the most gorgeous display ever wit
messed. A long line of massive dens,
painted in enamel aud gold, will con-
tain the menagerie of wild beasts,
preceded by the golden chariots, drawn
by beautiful marked horses which are
followed by the cages. containing the
docile animals, of the domestic depart
ment. These are decorated in gold
and crimson, and are embelished witt.
oil paintings of a high order of merit.
The Grand Pageant and living tableau
carnival will follow this It is impos
sible to portray the uniform attractions
and grandeur of this national and free
exhibition, SO we can only refer for
PARTICULARS to the description given in
the bills.
A cavalcade of fequestrians,c composing
the congress of Nations, escorting the
triumphant Tableau Car, upon which
is seated the GODDESS of Liberty in her
temple, drawn by elephants, buffalos
and camels, and carrying a live lion,
loose in the street at the apex. Next
the retinue, mounted on caparisoned
charges bearing emblematic ensigns,
and ending with an open den of lions
and tigers, in which is seated Madam
DeLeon who alone has them under
submission. No such amount of free
show has ever been offered before in
America, and the entrance fee 70 all
the combined exhibition under canvass
has been fixed at fifty cents.
