WIRTH'S CIRCUS.
Wirth Bros.' circus is still drawing children of all ages—from four to forty, and older—to the big tent in Cable street, Where every variety of novelty act, with horses, with hoops, and balls is being set out for the approval of the spectators, who, to judge by their applause at the various sessions, are more than satisfied with the fare offered. There is a good menagerie, which is an attraction in itself, and contains many well-known and some more obscure animals, among the latter being the warthog, claimed tol, be the ugliest animal in the world. Clowns provide the usual quips without which no circus Would be complete, and the acrobatic work is of the highest quality. The Flying Lloyds put on a really wonderful mid-air stunt, and Evans and Perez present clever hand balancing. Midget Prince Guiseppe Bignoli is seen in laughable equestrian tricks, and another 1 interesting item is the basket-ball match on cycles by the Hughes family. There will be a performance this evening, and one to-morrow afternoon and eyenihg.
