It would le too heavy an expense for the averse visitor to attempt to see them all, because they are very many in number and a separate admission price is charged for each one.

At the lime ol our vi.it all ol them were not n'ad.y lor vi-iiurs, but ihere were enough to rein visit to the M id wav l'laisanco very delightful. The uio.-t ; v.ii. lcvt'ii sight that we saw there, j : i.ioeed that wo have ever seen! Hiy Wi ,ero, was Jlagenheck's Ham-j burg menagerie, in which were lions, I tigorsan l other wild beilststhat were ! a- docile as dogs and trained to per form mosi woiiderfiil tricks. Indeed I the pcrlornii'.nees of theso ferocious looking h.-asls were truly marvellous. It seems incredible that man could I acipiire 'iirli completo coiitrol of'siich iiivuiio aniiiialsfarnl train them so oer I'ellV 10 do His niudilii 1 no 1 J P piTiormun'os took place in a large to do his hiddiiii. iron circular cage, about, the size of ;v .-ireiis ring, for the audience would . d have enjoyed tho occa.-iou il the .tuimals had been turned entirely loose ! The keepers would go iu this cage, in which the animals wore un loosed, and order them about just as If the had been tho most docile (Jogs. Fur iho delectation ol our boy read ors wo ill mention some of the per lormaiiees of theso wild animals. A large seo saw was placed in the cage und two largo lions got on it, one on each end, with a bear in tho middle, .nil is the band played theso two ions seo sawed, wont up and down,! and going about tho street just as il keeping time to the music, just asllhey were in Cairo. The Kgyptian, tvell as any children could do ! Now, I chil Iron were playing ami running! wasn't that womlerlul ? And then about t he street just ns they woul 1 ' Again, a .-mall chariot was brought Into tho cage to which were barnesr. e l two ferocious hulking tigivs, and' a huge old lion was made to get in die chariot, and, with the ruins plat; d in his ino'.ith, ho drove those tigs is around and around I he eajjojusi n a boy would drive his pet goats ! Now hoys, ivhatdoynii think oi thai; A. boar was made to stand erect on its bind feet on a large globe, 01 wooden bull, (about '2 feet in diame ter) and roll il from one side of the engo totboothir, and then a tigoi .wis made to crouch on it am) i0 the same thing. A largo lioness got on U10 back of a pony and rode it around !ho cage and jumped through hoops pist like p.ny circus rider would do. lliero were many other tricks and veiiderlul performances by these rni nod animals thai surpassed any thing ot the kind that wo had ever heard of, and which wo wish could havo been seen by all our readers. In striking contrast to this wild liiual snow was another show of ftiiimals of tho luiinriii gtnu in the -International Heauty Show " This was an exhibition ; lofty the uost beautiful women in the world, one from every country, and all very ti 'uifieontly dressed. Theso young Women purported to represent every Jn ti.enw fbllt tli.'lllV or dross pecu liar to her nation. Some ere strikingly beautiful, were not us boautilu! as j the your:; ladies who are seen every any throughout our houUihirid. Another attractive place was call ed the Moorish Palace. On the first floor was. tho "mystic labyrinth", which whs a winding corridor whose sides were lined with largo mirrors which reflected your figure iu every direction that you would turn, and indeed you would see so many re flections of yourself that, as ono vis itor laugh, nglyremarkod.you ly knew which was yourself which was your owu flesh and blood and ...i - i. n. :.. i... wuicii were vuur iTuaiwiu iu mc . . .. . mirrors, ll is said that some visit . ors have to pinch themsolves in order to be assured ol their owu !

We there saw glass made into ! threads and these threads woven lii.to something that resembled silk, j There were g!a.s pincii.diioiin that looked exactly like they were made ol lino silk or satin, with glass Innge ! hauling around them. To many visitors the most attrnc live sights on the Mid way P.'aisaneo :ro tho loreign villages, rejdo.ser.ting ! almost every country iu the world from Lapland to Uahomey. Ir, the (leruian village was an imitation ol an old castle, and siirroundiiii.' it wa a moat which was crossed bv a draw bridge. I'iio stylo ot urcniteel are j was similar to an old Cerman castle, i and gave every visitor a very good I " J J I niea oi no.v mo original looueu. in . n this castle was a museum in which wis exhibited a large collection of ! rare relics ol the mid. Ho ages, such his suits of armor and weapons ol war. Ono of these foreign exhibits j was called "A Street in Cairo", and, j as its name denotes, represented a street in that Kgyptian city, and was said to be an exact reproduction. The street was paved with bricks and sloped from each side to tho centre, and along e:o h side were houses similar to those seen in Cairo. 1 O . 1 o.,,. I'lgyptians, men, women and chil dren all clad in their native costumes do at homo, and the visitor couhi readily imugino that ho was indeed in tho land of Mgypt. Another ex- bihit was called '-Old Austria", and represented a sceuo iu Vienna, the buildings resembling t lir.se to bo seen in tin t city. At another place was lb Turkish village, iu which was a largo I heal re, a m( s(iie ami several other buildings like those at Con stantinople. In all theso villages there were lia.aars and places at which were for p.de many curious and interesting . n ttirn, for which high prices were gonerally asked. Iu the Irish village the chief atlra'.'. tion was a reproduction of the coles tirated Blarney Casile. Tho Java village was very interesting. It was surrounded by an enclosure made of cane or bamboo, and this material was chiefly used in the const ruction ot all the houses in that village. The Ferris Wheel is iu tho eentro of the Midway Plaisance and is one of its chief attractions. There are .'!(! cars on this huge v, heel, each 27 feet long, 13 fckt wide and i feet high, and capable of carry iug forty per sons. In tho revolutions ot this monster wheel the passengers in the! ear aro carried lis hih as 'J!J." feel ' from the 'round. It is lettainly a ! novel ride.
