IN the equestrian department, one of the
leading, and from the novelty the most
striking feature are the wonderful exploits
of the wild rider,
This extraordinary equestrian ol whose
skill and daring, volumes have been writen
wbereever he has performed, appears in two
distinct acts of horsemanship in neither of
which does he use saddle or bridlo on his
superb steeds, though they are both as wild
and apparently unlamoable as when first las
sood by him on the Pampers of South A
merica. Their leaps are truly terrific, and it
is impossible to describe the sonsalions of
thf beholder, as he watches the motions of
horse and rider, which are in perfect unison,
and which convey to the minu a strong pic-
Mast. T. NEVILLE is another of the stars which
iroin the brilliant Galaxy of Talent, of which
this great company is composed. He is every
where admitted to be without a rival in his fests
of equitation. Mr. C.VDWALLADEK, the graceful
and daring many horse rider, the established fa
voiile of Ibis company. Mr. E. Dannies with
his highly educated sad superb stud of Lilliputan
Shetland Ponies. The great tnd widely renoun
ce! Acrobats, the RIVERS FAMILY, whose pleas
ing and astonishing feats, have never been equal
led in America: tne acomplished equestrian and
ehampian vaulter, M. W. O. DALE. Mr. SAM.
LEE, herculean feats are the wonder and admira
tion of all who witness them. The juvenile
eqestrian prodigies, Mast. G. Dsaious and B.
Williams. Two great clowns, JOHN GOSSON and
DAN GABDNCR, whose unexceptional art and
most approved and good humor have placed them
at the summit of the pn.fession. Master of the
Arena, Capt J. A DCCAMP. The grand Heroic
Equestrian Dramatic spectacle,
St George and the Dragon, or the seven cham

A great and entirely novel feature in the mag
nificent pavillion, is the manner in which it is il
luminated, the means used being a Portable Gas
Factory. In this machine probably the greatest
discovery of the age, the quantity of gas neces
ary to render the interior of the pavilion as light
as noonday, is daily manufactured, and the article
produced affords a purer, belter snd more bril-

PANACEA.
the Afflicted ere incited to ceil end eee Mr '
(•tiee Brdbki, Jr., ttlhe corner of Third end
Wilcox atroete, end Miss Christiana Sonde, t
Beach street below Sprnce street, on the Sohnjrl I
Kill. These two persons have been snatched s
from this very jaws of this destroyer, through the (
agency of that most potent of all medicines.
DR. CULLEN'S INDIAN VEGETABLE t
PANACEA. u , r
Dr- Cullen's Panacea is the only cirtaln cure f
for Scrofula or King's E'lf, Tetter, Erysipelas, ri
Old Sores and Ulcers, Mercurial Dlseiiase, and all j
other affiliations, cutaneous or otherwise, arising r
from impurities of the blood. . „ p
In the extraordinary cure of Mr. Brotk*, jiro
pie who Visit bim, hold up their hands in as- j;
tonishmOnt, that Art medicine eouftl have ar- ,j
rested his disease—then go awgy resolved to re- jj
commend i)r Cullen's Indian Vegetable Pans- t j
cea to every oue they hear of who has need of s v
purifying medicine. . . .. - v ft
So with Christiana Sands—her cure of Scrof
ulous, sore throat was quite ta extraordinary as
Mr. Brooks', when we redact thst from the die
ease her tes or codee would frequently pass out
of her ears, when attempting to drink, [See
her, certificate.]
The people aie beginning to understand. too, n
that the variuua Syrupe of Sartaparilla are little "
better than molasees, and that it ia madneaa to )
throw away money on articles which, iiuder the r
most favorable circumstances, do not produce e
any imprenion on the system ulitil several gat- F
oils have been swallowed. One bottle of Dr. *
Cullen's Panacea aeldom fails to produce con- c
viciion in tho minds of patieiits that d radical s
cure is certain: _ , , . ... •
Thus bops, [so necessary, an ally to medl- I
cine.] springs up at the outset, and the patient .
ia cured before any other preparation could have 1
made ttse slightest impression upon the disease ! t
In feci, the twelve ounce bbilles of Dt. Ciil- r
lon's Panacea, compared with the pint and qntrt c
bottles of other purifiers, are valuable about in t
the proportion of gold to copper. Those who £
woule prefer ii penny to e half eagle, on account ,
of its size, would make a poor selection to say t
the least.
Sareaparilla a good purifier! Dr. Cutlon's t
Panacea contains its oxtract in its moat concet- ,
tratcd form. Added to this are other extracts, t
more active and poweiful, and which effect iu ,
combination with the Harsiparilla, what the lot ]
ter article, or combined with the moat powerful
poisons, cannot alone accomplish.
It has cured where everything else had failed
and this in a multitude of casta—not in Europe .
or in the moon, (where so many great cures .
have been performed,) but iq Philadelphia and j .
other pafu of the union. Aud be it distinctly j
understood that we do not obtain our extracts by j j
"holing 400 gallons down to one," it being
known to every druggist's apprentice that boiling 1
deatioya the essential virtuee of medicinal plants
and roots.

Dear Sir—l am now prepared to recom
mend yonr cordial from having used it with
success in several instances, and I am now
tryipg your Sa-saparilla Panacea in a case of
protracted debility, attended with cough, ap
parently produced in the young lady by her
•outgrowing her strength,' to use a common
phrase. Yours, A EARLE, M D
From the Upland Union.
We are as litllo disposed as most persons
to encourage appeals to laW or medicine, but
with all the legerdemain of the first, and tha
ignorance and tmakcry of thp last, appeals
must occasionally bo made to both. The
excessive heat and the accompaning pro
ductions of the season are already producing
Diarrln£a, Dysentery and holera Infantum!
complaints which if not promptly relieved
produce grpat debility ami frequent death.
From a knowledge of its beneficial etiecta,
wo refer to Dr. Keelcr's Cordial andCrrmin
u>va," adveHiU in lIIU paper. Dr. Keeler
is a physician of intelligence, skill, and large
practice, ami if the remedies and commen
dations of medical authority are to be de
pended on the ndove named article will be
found uselul in the rorriplaints referred to.
Also Dr. Keeler'e Satsaparilia, a med
icine of great efficacy in freeing the system
front all diseases arising front impurities of
the blootl. In chronic diseases of the chest,
stomach, liver and skin it is of great benefit.
Females suffering with' nervous debility loss
of appetite, costiyCness, pains of the chest,
furictienal obstructions will find a positive
cure in the Sarsaparilla. Id tf See pamphlets
