Another crowded bout-e greeted the performances at this establishment Jawt night. A good bill is offered for in is evening. Forepacgh'8 Mkxagekik. Forepaugh's immense menagerie and circus organization arrived yesterday morning and made one of the most imposing processions of tbe kind ever wltueswed upon the atreets. Prof.

Tunv Frank's military band, seated in a gorgeous golden chariot, drawn by sixteen cream -coioreu ana marxed horses, headed the cavalcade and enlivened the splendid street pageant with their choicest, music. i nen came the elephant, magn intently decked, and camels and oontes itavlv ulu inert and caparisoned, followed by the largest. nnest, aau costliest array oi animal cages any exhibition in te world cm produce, all drawn by one hundred hore-, every one of which was a perfect model of elegance and neauiy. i ne two tents were erected upon the ground of the Union Seating Rink, Allegheny. The attendant wa 1-irge at both the aiternoon and evening exhibitions.

Good little boys teamed tbeir papa- lo take them, and good papas took their little bovs and giris without a king, so that a goodly current of family parties streamed along toward tbe exhibition grounds. Following the crowd we entered the mammoth menagerie tent. There was the sacred bull with his mysterious hump, his dignified and serene bearing, and his delicately tinted hide. There were leopards elegantly spotted, and a panther, a little more wild, and so much more interesting. There was a polar rear, wno nad a poorer opinion or the weat tier than the most inveterate ot our native grumblers, and who continually swung hi Dead from side to side in a wav suggestive of extreme discontent with bis quarters.

In the centre of the paviilion were the dromedaries aud camels, the mot contented in appearance of all the anlmai; and the two elephants so marvellously greedy for cookies and confectionery as to suggest a suspicion that they were league with the dealers who sold those articles at stands near by, and who were patronized cnietiy by children eager to propitiate the elephants and interested intheir odd me hod of feeding themselves. Then at the end of the row was the the other unique feature of the collection, tne African eland, the nyl gau, and tue tuoostcr kangaroo. Scattered among these were bvenas. Mamas, a zebra, monkeys and other aoiwais belonging to the establishment in fine, a very good collection, anil tbe pleasanter to loog upon that all tbe creatures seemed well and cleanly cared for. There were so many children in the crowd of lookerw-on.

that It teemed quite like an illustrated lesion in natural history; and those who bad taken their lesions years ao could not but be edified by tbe pretty sights outside the rope tbe wondering eyes, tne little screams of fear, the naive remark, the exclamations and amazeuieot tu be en countered on every side. The arenic ex hi bi ns, held in another tent, were superior to anything we have bad in this city for many years, and in the way of novelty. fretbneB and freedom from everything coarse or insipid, highly commended by alt present. Ail the cos; umes and properties are new and beautiful. Both tents aie also new and water-proof.

The seats are of tbe neatest description, and instead of being rough boards they are all smool bly planed and painted. In every respect Forepaugh establishment is a model one, and worthy of imitation. The equestrianism of tbe intrepid Cordelia on ber bare-oaeaea horse is worthy especial commendation; while the ridir-g of Se nor it a Lo-wand and Mile. Virginia, may without exaggeration be considered faultless past comment- Messrs. Franconl.

Robinson, Sparks. Matthews. Hunting. Williams. Melville and the entire company are all nrt-ciass wrformeTK.

and were loudly applauded in their several acts. The establishment will remain here only two days longer. From here it goes to Birmingham, on tde2Slh.

FKEhTOKT, IA. from Another Mtnnd-I'oint. Kisfcfci'oHT, May 24th, 1H71. Kpitohh Uazkttk: Iu looking over your valuable paper a day or two since, my eyes fell upon a communication headed "-KroetMirt." It is so seldom that our little village is noticed by newspaper correspon dents that I perused with interest the item, and would ask permission to make few corrections. Your correspondent claims Free port to be the town of nino churches and irgrog shops.

That the rime churches are really cow tamed iu our htile Borough none for moment will doubt, especially if he is chuicb-gner, but I would resttectfully ask your correspondent what about the ven dersof hard cider, etc. The lied Onion Saloon, the siuier-cane house, where rail road schedule may be discussed, and the laHt important move of Congress be carefully examined and criticized upon Your correspondent must have forgotten some of the most important places in our Dorougu. The fair which he so brightly illus trates was undoubtedly a success, aud most certainly reflects credit upon its managers, but your cor respondent is in errtif in one point, viz 1. Miort. was not a candidate for the dressing gown, he bavin" declined the candid ture, and having kindly assisted Mr.

1 npp. the succeesful candidate, to victo ry. Mr. Short is, therefore, not entitled to the honor of defeat. We think the author was aware of this also, but proba bly he forgot to change his manuscript but we hope he will stand corrected.

Out little village was enlivened to-day by rorepaughs menagerie and circus, which was largely attended, and notwithstanding the nine churches stood alone in their glory, the scrupulous went to see the menagerie, and the more indifferent visited the circus, and cense jUeotly there waa a fair turnout, and the want of grog shops did not serve to keep toe ardent out of town. 1 here were sev eral tests of pugilistic skill, and a few bruised faces aud black eyes were to be seen among tbe mafs O. Cahteth are scarcely used at all now in country cottages. Inlaid wood floors are the ragn, their lack of bright color being conipouHaied for by a superfluity of gorgeous rugs.
