MATLOCK FAlR.—This fair, which was held on Monday,
was one of the most flat and spiritless affairs ever known at a
similar season. The show of cattle was scanty, and those ex-
hibited were by no means of first-rate quality, while the buyers
were neither numerous or anxious for business. A few in•
calvers and fresh barrens changed hands at tolerablre prices, but
we do not hear of any other transactions in stock worthy of
notice. The town, however, towards evening, began to ap-
pear more gay and animated, in consequence of the influx
of railway workmen and rustic belles and beaux, but even
these would be compelled to provide, or create their amuse-
ments, as although the day was remarkably fine, the giants,
dwarfs, fire-eaters and magicians of the north, smith, and all
sorts of places, stopped at home—or at least did not visit
Matlock to astonish it with their wonders. It was remarked
that the fortnightly market at Bakewell had the effect of re-
ducing the amount of business formerly transacted at this fair.
