THE GREAT CIRCUS.
The Great Consolidated Circus, of which
so much has been said, commences here to-
morrow and remains during the remainder
of the week. The papers all along the line
where it has travelled pronounce it the
greatest show ever seen. After it had fair
| ly opened in Philadelphia, the Inquirer Of
| that city said of it:
THE Great London Circus, sangers Roy
al British Menagerie, combined with
Messrs. Cooper, Bailey & Co.'S famous in
ternational allied shows, opened out yes
| terday IN TINS CITY Win TWO performances,
one in the afternoon and the other in the
evening. The auditorium formed beneath
the one hundred and sixtyeight thousand
yards of canvas that stretched on the poles
at Broad and Wharton streets is an ex-
tremeiy capacious one, but it was not quite
sufficient to accommodate the crowds that
hocked TO the show at both of yesterdays S
performances. Certainly nothing in this
line has been seen in Philadelphia to com.
pare with the combination since Barnum S
great Hippodrome was located on North
Broad street
The programme for the afternoon and
evening performances is a very generous
one, replete with every first-class feature
of first-class circus entertainment, in ad
dtion to several peculiarly interesting nov
elites The ten elephants are put through
the evolutions of the military march in
company, made to waltz, to climb ladders
stand on pedestals, &C., and finally to SC
group themselves one above the other as tC
form veritable mountain of elephants
Madame D'Atale stands with small how
itzer on her back and bears up both it and
a man who stands upon it while he dis
charges the piece, the conclusion from
which shakes the whole inclosure, bu
, doesn't seem to trouble the herculeal
woman in the least"
This great show will open few days
