' ■ F o r twenty-eight successive years, P . T. Barnum, has been a carterer for public amusement and instruction; the last tw en ty-two years having been devoted to the management o f the American Museum. The daily expenses of the Museum during the first months of his managements were only $40, being at the rate of $12,510 per annum. Its daily expenses as we are cred- Itfibly informed are a t the p resent time $576 o^,$180,268 p e r annum. Notwjthstaudiag this almost fabulous increase in its e x p e n s^ of $536 each day, or $167,768 each year, the.price of admission to the entire Muse- . um and dramatic performances (except a , small e x tra c h arge for front seats) has al ways been the same,, viz, only 25 cents. , Mr, Barnum attends personally to the management of his Museum, and beyond all question he.is the most popular and suc cessful manajger of the present age.
