From ths PHsburg Dispatch Of Aug. 1851
The attendance at Coup's show
last night was a 1T testimonial 10 the
| high estimate our citizens have pla =
ccd upon the builder Of the great
New York Hippodrome, the founder
Of the New York Aquarium and the
originator Of the largest amusement
enterprises ever inaugurated 10 this
country. The Ierformances were so
highly appreciated, and the excite

after packing fourteen Thousand PEG.
/ pie on comfortable seats, under the
largest tents ever erected in this city
the doors we're closed before eight
O'Clock in the face OF thousands
Of people who were unable to
gain admission for want Of room.
One Of the rules adopted by Mr..
Coup is, never to admit another per-
son to his tents II their presence
weuld in the least interfere with the
pleasure Of his audience. The re-
ception thus far given to Pitlsburgh's
favOrite was more than an ovation
1t was a substantial financial triumph
such as has rarely, If ever, been ac-
corded to any exhibition that ever
visited this city before
As to the rare novel features and |
quality Of the entertainment, nothing
better was ever seen here, while the
four circus and hippodrome rings,
precisely as advertised. we're all there
and in them given the finest specta-
cular pageants, the most brilliant
performances, the most daring feast,
the most exciting hippodrome races,
the most charming gymnastic and
acrobatic performances ever before
presented to a Pittsburg audience.
The feat Of the "great and only Lu
