Entertainments.

P. T. TBarnum's greatest show on earth, mu- scum, menagerie and circus is larger and con tains more novelties, of startling character, not only in rare wild animals and curious au- tomata, but particularly in starena" perform auces, than ever before. Manager Bailey has just returned from Europe bringing these novelties. The show op ems in New York, April 9th, for fifteen days Brooklyn six days; Bridgeport May 3 :; New Haven May and Hartford May 5. It visits only three cities in Connecticut this year, as it is to go west to Cleveland, and, perhaps, California. Next year it will visit Meriden, Middletown, Norwich, and possibly New Britain, besides Danbury and Waterbury.
 THE GALLEY SLAVE.
 This evening the great picturesque comedy of life in the American colony in Europe en- titled "The Galley Slave" will be presented at the Grand Opera House. Its chief interest the galIeys to save from blemish the reputa- tion of the woman he loves, but is eventually restored to her and society. Much that is not strictly gsrmane to the subject is introduced into the play. Though there arc no strictly comedy characters in the cast, much of the dialogue is fullof rough but irresistible humor, and several of the situations are ludicrous in the extreme. The drama runs through five acts of which the fire is entirely superduous, the ground covered being Venice, Rome, chateau on the Rhine, prison in Marseilles and saloon of the American colony in Paris. As may be imagined, this latitude gives scope for strongly dramatic situations, full of real interest, the best of which are reached at the end of the second and third acts. The play will be presented again on Saturday afternoon (matinee) and on Saturday evening.
 PArr1soN's PIANO REoITA1s.
 MT. J. N. Pattison, of New York, appeared at the Atheneum last evening, giving the first of the series of pianoforte recitals which he has arranged to give before the New Haven public. His reputation as an artist and in- structor drew out numerous and cultivated audience, comprising large number of our best musicians and teachers. The entire pro- gramme was highly instructive and much en- joyed. As he took up each number he re- marked critically of the author of the selection in hand and the characteristics of the compost tion, and his renderings elicited hearty enthu- siasm. The gem of the evening was No. 2, Moonlight" No doubt the succeeding en- tertainment will be very successful. The next will be Thursday evening, April sth, subject, s'Gottschalk." For the remaining recitals, three in number, the price is only one dollar, tickets to be obtained at Loomis'. The pro gramme last evening, which was elegantly printed and illustrated, was as follows:

ty at large. and especially of this city, have lost valued member and just and upright brother.
 The members of Wooster Lodge recogniz ing his many virtues, they have adopted the following resolution, and commissioned the undersigned committee to present them to
 your lodge:
 Whereas, It hath pleased the Grand Master

 brother who was ever ready to proffer the hand of aid and the voice of sympathy to the needy and distressed of the fraternity, friend and companion who was dear

The column is broken, but there is 1 silver lining to the cloud in the emulation oi | his virtues. The magnetism of Brother Da- l vison was the magnetism of love that livel l beyond the vale. He possessed that loving heart which would lead him to make sacrifices | for the humblest of his brethren. He is lost l to US, but we can but believe that oul
 loss> is his gain, and that he has gone to that celestial lodge where the Supreme l TorAsi6es TIaf rS $reaSura his Ynam l cry in our hearts and seek to initiate him il

Captain Eatls' Ship Railway.


The Scientific american Of this week
contains two full page illustrations Of
Captain Eads' proposed railway for
transporting ships with their cargo
across continents.
Captain Eads claims by his plan to
be able to take loaded ships of the largest
tonnage from one ocean to the Other
across the Istllmus of Panama, as readily
as can be done by :. canal after the Les
sup plan, and at a much less cost for Ell
gineering construction.
The project is certainly bold and in
genious, and the protector anticipates
10 serious difficulties in carrying for
ward his enterprise. The engravinys re-
felred to in the Scientific 1mcrican show
the proposed construction of not only the
railroad, but the appliances for transfer
ring the ships from the water to the rail.
In addition to the large number Of ell
cravings, Illustrative of engineering
works, inventions aud new discoveries
which appear weekly, the Scientific
Ame,ican has, during the past year, de-
voted considerable space to illustrating
and describing leading establishments
devoted to different manufacturing i'll
dlstries.
This feature has added very much to
the attractiveness and usefulness Of the
paper. More than fifty of the most i'm
portant industrial establishments Of onl
country have been illustrated, and the
processes Of the different manufactures
described in its columns. The Scientific
american has been published for more
than thirty -four years by MUM & Co.,
81 Park Row, N. y, and has attained a
larger weekly circulation than ali SINH
lar papers published in the country. The
publishers assure the public that they
have not printed less than $4,000 copies
Il week for several months.
