Amusements. IR T H JJ R0 S\ WILD W EST C OMBINED SHOWSVALEDICTORY. On the eve of their departure from Auckland, .There they have .pent several months very plea, ,antly and profitably, the proprietary of the Wirth Brothers' Combined VIM West and Circus Shows ; leem it incumbent upon themselves to express their acknowledgments to the resident, of this beautiful city and its lovely environs, for the generous patronage which has been accorded to them throughout, and for the uniform kindness and consideration which have been shown to them wherever they hare gone. They have been in Auckland and its neighbourhood .since May, and it has been a sincere pleasure to them to find that tHeir efforts to cater for the amusement of those *ho delight in the entertainments of the circus, arena have met with universal appreciation, and ha indeed aroused unbounded enthusiasm. i From a business point of view, the proletary will ever retain the kindliest regard for tins city, for it was here that their plan, were formulated and developed for the introduction to New Zealand and Australia of the la«est and most unique sho W which these colonies *ve ever seen, and which is absolutely unrivalled to the Southern Hemisphere. The Messrs. Wirth were confident that the immensely large and in*riably critical assemblages which were so genero* in their good opinions of the circus entertainment would show their appreciation of the enterprise''»'ch prompted the proprietary to launch out |pn such an extensive undertaking, and their adcipations have been fully realised. The public of Auckland have given the fullest evidence of the* appreciation of the wonders of this great show, and in a most magnificent manner. During the «t seven nights quite thirty thousand people hav patronised the Wild West, and it is due to their indulgence that it now goes forth to the world wit the Auckland hall-mark of unrivalled excellence ipon it. For these universal golden opinions, which are invaluable in a busing sense, the proprietary are very grateful. : It is their privilege too to be in a position to thank many of the inlabiiants of Auckland for innumerable courtesies -hich have been extended to them in a social sense. These kindnesses will ever dwell in their raemoris as exceptionally bright and pleasant spots in the *ry happy sojourn they have made in this sunny cif. The Wild West She, which has been inaugurated under conditions of suh unparalleled success, is but the first of a series of inique entertainments which the management hav in view. The proprietary recognise the fact tilt the tented shows in these colonies have hithertdiot been on a scale commensurate with the supp<<; which the public are prepared to offer, norhav they kept pace with the rapid advancement made "'this class of entertainments in other parts of thiivorld. Messrs. Harry Wirth and Alexander were inpressed with the fact on the occasion of their reel, visit to the United States of America., and acing under instructions from headquarters, they re.de arrangements for a regular series of novelties fo the Messrs. Wirth. These will arrive n the colonies from time to time, and it is the indention of the Messrs. Wirth to tour Australia and .few Zealand each season with an entirely new art magnificent show, the like of which has never be-.'i seen in this part of the world. No expense will 1- spared in the organisation of these great conizations, and the efforts of the management will .-.ways be devoted to maintaining the prestige of the: wonderful Show, and justifying the title which >y popular verdict has been conferred upon hem, that of the Australian liavnums. 1| To one and all if their hosts of friends in Auckland, the Messrs Wirth, in conclusion, bid a regretful farewell. The months which they have .spent in this city ive been months of sunshine, and the happy assosn:ons which they have formed in Auckland willliver linger pleasantly in their memories, and case them to look forward with happy anticipatio to their next visit to Auckland and its people. 1 FOR THE MESiBE.

She was all the j me getting worse, abscesses _, formed on the spin?, tne right leg was drawn up, , the stomach enlarge.] an( turned round to the side, _ the legs and thigdss*ung oos€ in their sockets. She t was altogether a pitiable sight, and could only be ■ moved or lifted with the face downwards. At the end of eight months she was again taken i to the Hospital, ani was examined by Doctors Lindsay and Bell. They snid nothing could be done - for her, that thdjbact bone was decayed, which was , only too true.
