Wallace & Co.'S Show.

This show gave an exhibition
here yesterday afternoon and
evening to good crowds which was
satifactory to all because those
who went saw what they expected
TO see that is all, that was advertised
to be exhibited. Indeed they saw
more as no advertisement can do
justice to some of the features of
the show. Some of the animals,
especially the horses must be seen
as their beauty and attractive
qualities can't be written. Then
the efforts of the managers to please
aud have their patrons enjoy
themselves are extraordinary. Ii
any one goes away from this
exhibition dissatisfied it will be
not because he did not witness all
that he had right to expect. We
regret that the weather was such
yesterday as to preclude an attend
ance as large as the exhibition
deserves.-Genius of Liberty.
