The great consolidated ciivus and mena •/eric wid arrive in Oaniaru to-morrow morning at an early hour, three .special traiii-
having been hired by Messrs.' Cooper ami Bdicy for the transport of the animals, &c. Ilie success of the show in I bine fin has been equdk-d, for the immense tent in which the entertainment is held was nightly crowded, even during most unfavourable we-.tiier. It is seldom that such an opportunity is afforded of witnessing such a complete collection of the wild denizens of the forests, nor has there ever been a moveable company of equestrians in the colonies The eharaeteroi' some of their performances i - at once striking and exciting ; and, apart from fie menagerie, which is full of iuterest to oot.li old and young, the circus itself will fully lepay those who patronise it. We learu that a very large number of school children and others are to be in Gamaru from various parts of the district to-morrow, for the purpose of witnessing the wonderful things that Messrs. Cooper and Bailey are bringing with them.
