--On Monday evening next we are to have "a sensation" at Mechanics' Institute
Hall, in the return of this world-renowned
Professor of the
Mystic Art, whose performances in all quarters of the globe have created for him a name far above all others who wield the baton of magic.
His entertainments are on a grand scale, and his apparatus is said to be of the most costly description.--Eight years ago
Prof. Anderson gave a series of entertainments in this city, and many of our readers remember with pleasure his remarkable feats and astonishing delusions.--Since then his fame has been cumulative, gathering and increasing as he moved from place to place, astonishing the simple and the wise by the perfection of his art.
Prof. A. has exhibited in
England,
Australia,
Egypt,
India and
California, with unprecedented success.
His pictorial announcements represent him as having performed within the shadow of the pyramids, in an ice palace on the
Russian Neva, and down at the bottom of a gold mine; and wherever he has appeared, the people and the press, with one voice, pronounce him the magic king of the world.
When our readers see him we are sure they will say he is, indeed, a wonder to behold.
