AMUSEMENTS.
The Human Wonders at the Academy.--Another
Immense aodience greeted the great
combination of Asiatics at the Academy of
Music last night. Little All Right docs not ap
pear as lively as formerly, but performs several
surprising tricks, and does the talking
for the other performers. "Dan Web
ster," a diminutive specimen of tho genus
copper color, executes some neat feats of
balancing. The slack-rope acts of Tcroo-kcct-chre,
the walking up a ladder with rounds of
razor-sharp swords by Tzcua Yeroo. he pic
turefque gymnastic performance of Miss Oyon
stikee and her father, and the extraordinary
summersaulting, hand-springing, and humorous
contortioning of the Arab troupe, were all
warmly applauded, as tbey deserved to be. No
such combination of artistes has ever been in
our city, and no one should fail to see them.
Another attractive programme will be presented
this evening.
The Walnut Stkeet Theatre will be opened
on Monday evening, the 10th of August. The
gi and spectacle of A Midsummer Miylitfs Dream
will be produced in a grand style.
