propiseg ng a big crowd Of country
Pro- lsk has succeeded in raising
sufficient funds to 70 ON with the balloon
ascension and guarantees a big crowd of
spectators. In fact as big q crowd as
would have attended the circus had not
the high license kept it away.
Much dissatisfaction is expressed
among business men by the action OF the
county judges in raising the license of
shows, circuses &c to $500 1t keeps away
the trade of great many people who if it
were not for the attraction would buy at
small towns arounds.
Your correspondent has just picked
mp an item of news that would be sweet
romance for gossip mOngers to roll under
their tongues. A highly connected young
grocer of our town, was caught by our city
marshal, last night, in rather q delicate
situa,ion-in fact, so clearly was he violat-
ing the city ordinances, that the officer was
compelled to bring him before the "terri-
blc," who fined him SO and costs, and who
gave him advice worth twice as much.
WE WOULD LIKE TO KNOW
If it don't take the young man who
dispenses Goodness" long time to get &C.
quainted with the operator?
How many saloons will run, after the
new city license goes into effect, and what
Sntton's general opinion of our city dads
is?
Why Charlie Dorman was 50 anxious
no one should see him as he preambulafed
aleng Main street at late hour Thursday
night?
What made Ed. Warren cut off his
moustache and crop his hair so close, and
if he wouldn't give most anything to have
the boys let up on him?
Special grand jury indicted Chas. Adams
for murder in the first degree for the kill
ing of John Nichols at MontrOse lately.
Two other indictments were presented by
the same jury, one for burglary and the
other for assault with Intent to kill. Nei-
Their of the cases will be tried at the pres
ent special term OF tie circuit court. The
square is nearly encompassed with the pipe
for gas and the work Of laying brick in the
works will commence in two or three days,
the foundation being already completed.

Speaking of Barrett's Circus and
MenaGerie.
Rochester, N. Y, Democrat.

Rochester, N. Y, Democrat.
The circus has come and gone. It's ex.
hibitions yesterday afternoon and last night
were very largely attended. Last night
particularly the spacious tent was scarcely
large enough to seat the immense crowd
that sought admittance, and q great many
persons were content to find sitting room
upon the ground, and around the ring
Hundreds of people from the country came.
into the city early in the day, and lined
the streets to get u view of the parade. The
people of the city also collected at all
available points to witness the street dis
play, and waited very patiently for several
hours to crafty their desire in this respect.
The pageant, with its five fine bands of
music, its sleek, fat horses, and its nicely
kept chariots and wagons was one very
pleasing to look upon, and was one of the
best seen in many years on the streets of
Rochester. The steam calliope, with Its
musical notes that could be heard for
squares, closed the long line of the display
and attracted great attention. 1t gave
forth several brisk airs as il passed in
view. Music by steam is a novelty to the
great body of our people, and many who
heard the caliOpe yesterday evinced their
surprise at such musical instrument on
wheels.
As we have stated above, the tents were
filed at both exhibitions. The entertain
ment is a very superior one in all respects.
The actors are all artists in their respec-
tive roles. MANY of the ring horses are
superb animals, and show admirable train
ing. The dog show was one of special in
,erest ard attraction. The performance ON
the tight rope, in which young woman
propels herself on a bicycle-many feet
above the ground-was a novelty never
before witnessed here, and was a very at
tractive feature. Another striking feature
was the horseback riding of Miss Emma
Lake. The animal she rides is a magni6-
cent steed, graceful in his every action, and
wonderfully trained. The trapeze, aero
batic and ball performances are very SUI
perior. The man with the iron jaw per
forms some wonderful feats in the way of
lifting heavy tables, barrels, etc. One his
feats was the lifting and carrying about
the ring a man weighing 16O pounds,
seated in chair. holding him up by one
of the rounds of the chair in his mouth.
The menagerie is large and well Sc
lected one, embracing wild animals OF
many kinds.
Everything about the circus evinces sys-
tenn, good management and order. The
proprietors and managers and agents are
all courteous gentlemen, whose desire is to
please the public in every way, and to give
them the very best possible show. This
they do. 1t is the best managed and best
conducted show of the kind that has ever
visited Rochester, and one that can be
commended to all the communities it may
visit.
There is one thing especially about the
entertainment that c0mmends it, and that
is the entire freedom from everything that
has the appearance of vulgarity in the
ring.
Ih:s great show will exhibit ut 9edslia,
ON Saturday, June 2. Don't fail to 60.
