TIE GREAT LONDON SHow.-There was
an immense crowd Of people in the city
yesterday, attracted by the Great London
Show. The street parade in the morning
was large and imposing, and was witnessed
by thousands OF people, the streets and
sidewalks along the route being crowded
by men, women and children, from near
and from far. Success, OF the most en-
phatic and overwhelming description,
greeted the show at both performances.
The crowd which filled the canvass in the
afternoon was estimated at from 5000 70
5000, and at night long before s O'clock
the tents were crowded. The immense
canvas was fairly packed with humanity,
and cars and carriages kept coming up
continually bringing fresh crowds, II was
a tremendous o%utpouring Of tho people
and exceeded the brightest anticipations
of the proprietors. The performance
was all that the show promised.
The best riders, leapers, tumblers, gym
nasts, trapeze artists, lugglers and clowns
were there, all great, skillful and graceful.
Frank Melville, Wm. Dutton, Senorita
Adelaide Codona, the LeOtards, Lawrence
Sisters, Crossley and Elder, and the hun,
dreds Of others were great In their special,
ties. Katsnoshin, the Japanese juggler, is
one OF the most astonishing performers In
the ring to-day. Every act was loudly
and enthusiastically %applauded, and the
entire performance, both afternoon and
evening, passed off most pleasantly. The
electric light astonished all beholaers with
its brilliancy and beauty. 1t made the in.

one. The proprietors OF this show evinc-
cd the greatest enterprise in securing the
new illuminating power, and are fairly en-
titled to the credit due. All ths other
shows now in this country II consolidated
could not equal the "Great London" and
all the money possessed by all the other
managers in the United States could not

ton, the grand electric light
