DAN Rici.--This veteran of the circuns
ring, whose name is as familiar as house
hold words throughout the length and
breadth of our land, and no place more so
than in Donaldsonville, is advertised to
lecture at Phtenix Hall, Monday eve
ning, the 29th inst. For, be it known,
that Dan has abandonded his old pro
fession and convivial habits, and now
upon the lecture platform depicts to
his friends, the American people, the
virtues of temperance, religion and mno
rality. His achievements in the rostrum
are every where applauded by the press,
and it may well be supposed that the ex
periences of his long and busy life in the
occupations of clown and showman have
stored his mind with much valuable ma
terial for an attractive discourse. He is
said to blend eloquence, wisdom and hu
mor in an admirable manner, interspers
ing expos.tions of the leading principles
of his new departure with side-splitting
selectioins from an inexhaustible fund of
anecdotes founded upon incidents in his
own eventful career.
Reed's Gilt Edge Tonic restores the
appetite.
