A SENSIBLE MOVE IN THE RIGHT D1- Big Show that is to vieit us on Wednesday, May 14th, bae reduced the price of admission to 25 cents, and taking into considerstion the peeuniary condition of most people who attend this class of amusement, we think the bare done a very sensible thing, and proprietors will reap the beneSt wherever the exhibithey tion erects its tents.

Mr. Cordova, the agent, in talking the matter over with us and giving his reasons for the reduced price of admission, very renaibly enge, tents have been enlarged no that 8,000 persons can be comfortably seated and why not entertain that number for therein, rather than 3,000 persons at the old 25 cents And another strong argument of Mr. price?"

The combination consists of Circus, Menagerie and Museum. A reporter of the Philadelphia Times went to take a look at it before leaving that city and he remarks: Our citizens had the pleasure last night of seeing one of the best combinations of eireas, museum and menagerie that has ever visited this city. The zoological department is unusually large and contains many rare specimens of the animal kingdom, among which is the large war elephant, Empress, without enid doubt the 130 largest elephant in the world, and to be years old and her trainer, Major Harry Cooley, seems to have her under perfect control. The docility and through the several nots assigned her as part of superior intelligence exhibited, while going the prograinme, are simply wonderfal. Of the other animals of which special mention should be made are the gnu, or horned horsed, llama, or camel of the Andes, lance-borned rhinocerous, sacred cow, two dens of lions and tigere, hyenas, fact it is the finest collection in zoology we ever saw.

The museum also contains many and curious features that are certainly well rare worth seeing, consisting in part of ancient armors, statuary, paintings, wonderful automatical life -like Ogares, and many more objects of wonder. The unexceptionally fine collection of tropi cal birds in another great feature that commends itself to the lovers of the beautiful. Last, but not least, comes the circus part of the show, and it seems as if the managers had reserved the best for the last, for, in truth, there could be no better riding than was done by the different members of the company. Romeo Sebastian, seemed to be a part and parcel of his horse, which the he rode of with a skill and daring that fairly won plaudits the immense audience present, while Misa Mollie Brown captivated her auditors by the the most graceful ease with which the did some of thrilling nots of equestrianiem we ever saw attempted. Alexia Scarfar, billed as the "Russian Wonder," also came in for his share of the unanimous sppreval given to the entire performance, The phenomenal Siegriste they are called gave some of the best gymnastic performances ever beheld in this eity.

The manner in which they did the very dificult act of turning somersaults from the shoulder of one to the shoulder of the other elleited round after round of rapturous applause. Cardello and Victorelli twe excellent horizontalbar performers, did some astonishing feats on the bar. The clowns acquitted themselves in a manper that was highly creditable to themselves and was more than usually funny. Mr. Arthur John800, the German dialect clown, convulsed Mr.

James the spectators with his broken English. Ward, one of the beat English speaking clowns, amused the audience with comie sayings, and sppeared, also, in a performance on the slack rope, called the cloud swing, which was performed to the entire satisfaction of every one. Want of space to-day prevents as from giving a more tended notice of the rest of the performers, but suffice it to say that they did what they had to do In the most satisfactory manner. The best test of the merit of the exhibition was to hear the marks of the people they passed out of the tent at the of the show. The universal verdict was, in the best show ever Phila- Harder sells the cheapest.

LETTER FROM COVINGTON. FRENCHVILLE, April 29tb, 1879. Mn. EDITOR: The boys of Mulsonbnrg, four or five in number, thought they would have a little fun last Saturday night at the expense of Mr. Boush; but it was at the expense of the Captain of the crowd.

The Captain proposed that they would put part of his (Boush's) wagon on the roof of his barn, and they all agreed te it. So they got up on the roof, with a rope, to pull the wagon up. Mr. Boush, being OD his guard, came upon the lads like a thousand of brick, swearing that he would shoot all of them. Those on the ground gave leg- bail and left the Captain sitting on the roof, like a big turkey, begging 'for God's sake, lienry, don't shoot; it is only in fun But the joke was on him as he had to "set it up" afterwards to end the fun.

Let this be a warning to other boys who are in the babit of annoying the neighborhood. Had Mr. Boush bebaved as bad as the boys, somebody would have been hurt. All are free, except the Captain, who has thus far failed to reconcile Mr. Bourh.

Miscellaneous ........126 THE LOG -The Lock Haven Democrat, of last week, says: George Merrill's drive came in on Tuesday with about 40,000.000 feet, and the men were promptly paid off yesterday. At the same time with it came Flynn's drive of about 20,000,000 feet. These drives accomplished what was never before done on this river. They drove through on one flood, about 300 miles, from the bead of the river, from Mebaffey'4 dam to Williameport, driving right through twenty seven days in succession. There are no better drivers anywhere than these men.

Bristling with energy, Messre Merrill and Flynn buckle right down to their work when they've get any to do, and "if it's in the wood" the thing will be done. The Corporation Drive reached this point on Tuesday and tied up bere on account of the Wiliamsport Boom being fall. Emery's Drive is comewhere between here and North Point. Blanchard Ardell are tied up at the mouth of Mosquito Creek. The Moshaanon Drive is somewhere in the Moshannon.

THE BRADY ASSESSOR RISES AND EXPLAINS. LUTHERSBURG, May 1st, 1879. EDITOR REPUBLICAN: Please find room for few lines in your paper in order to defend myself against a certain individual, who dates his letter from Sandy township, April 17tb, 1879. He slanders me and falsifies my report to the Commissioners. First, it is not true when he says "Olson, 0, shoemaker No.

1, $70." I have it O. C. Olson, shoemaker, $70, and "Olson, Oliver, No. 2, shoemaker, $50." I have it Olson, Oliver, laborer, $50. Second, he says, "McDermott, Thomas, No.

1, "McDermott, Thomas, No. 2, 860." A8 I have only one MoDermott, Thomas, this makes slander No. 2. He sage, "Bartlett, II. No.

bookkeeper, $60 I have "Bartlett, I. 8., No. 1. barber, $60. This makes slander No.

8. He says, H. No 2, bookkeeper, $75." have Parlett, H. clerk for Coal Company, $75. This makes slander No.

4. Now, I will explain how it happened that I get few names twice in the duplicate. After I bad been in every bouse in town, I went to the saw mill and machine shops, and I found I could do nothing there. I went to Mr. Beard, bookkeeper for Mr.

Da Bois, and asked him if he would be kind enough to furnish me the names and occupations of Mr. DuBois' bands who were working in the woods, saw mill and machine shop. did so. Now, as I had most all the pames already from in my book, and by supplying the ballance Mr. Beard's liet.

it bappened that I did get a few names twice. In regard to the occupations, I had to value them as I was told. Many of the men were not at home and I bad to ask the women, and had to believe them. At the bouse of Fey, James, I was told Fey was a carpenter. This makes slander No.

5. At the house of Bell, B. H. I was told bis oceupation was a lumberman. This makes slander No.

6. At the house of Groover, M. I WAS told that be was a common laborer and Groover, Charles, a machinist, and so with Palmer, Edinger, Lithgo, Dellaas, Fauver, Gartan, ete. My sianderer saye, "Heeck, P. $70." I have no such name.

Slander No. 7. Hartsfeld, Henry, farmer, $20. I have him "old man." Hummel, Jacob, farmer, $25. I bave him "old man." Dunlap, 8.

farmer $60. I have him "old wan, Slander No. 8. Neither of those 1 have marked "old men" can do much work any more. In regard to mis self I charged myself as high as any other furwer, although I bave not been able to do a day's work since last Fall.

If my slanderer would mind his own business, believe it would be better for bim. Yours, J. F. OSWALD. Specials.
