monday last by t the h e entrance into camp of Bartholo mews great pioneer circus arid and in a short time all the Sut lers stores were decorated with flaming bills which excited the curiosity of the curious they treated us to their first per oi mance on wednesday night and had a 2 crowded pavilion all ail anxious to see the reat feats as set forth upon tile the bills but ill all it were ere disappointed and left the c circus arcus impi impressed essed with tile lie belief that the bills were the llie best of the pioneer circus 2 the military dramatic association played on tuesday night

sustained very well ile he appears as a com median and is ia always first rate show shot ing that he be has a diversity of talents on oil the stage I 1 am satisfied could some of the levers of the drama drop into the camp floyd theatre and see bee dick white bill warren mrs and mrs whitlock lock upon the boards they would be agreeably surprised to say nothing of many others who play good nor should we pass unnoticed the orchestra led by soret J pound bandmaster band master ath infantry who has spared no pains to give gideus us good music and I 1 can safely say that it would please any
