BARNUMs GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH.
The streets were thronged this morning
to witness the street parade of Barnum's S
great show.
The street parade was made up of the ia
miliar gorgeously painted wagons, headed
by Barnums's imported stud of black STALL
ions led by grooms, and followed by the
largest herd of the largest elephants ever
gathered in one show, numerous camels,
ponies, and curiosities of various kinds.
The music was furnished by what is named
an orchestmelchor, which is a steam brass
band which never loses its wind, and a
calliope. The immense tents were pitched
on the lot in the rear of Lincoln Park. They
are three in number; the first containing
| the thousands of curiosities sufficient to in
| terest the most unlearned or scientific for
! hours, the next devoted to the menagere
which contains some of the most remarka-
Bile and costly specimens of the animal
Kingdom to be found on the globe, and the
third used as the arena, which has a seat
| ing capacity of ten thousand.
| The immense throngs vending their way
to the West End indicate that the tents
are well crowded this afternoon, notwith-
standing their immense capacity.
