Barnet Great Annual Fair.

Yesterday.theelierso fair was resumed, but the unpropi-
tious state of the weather prevented the early transaction of
business, and this year's fair seemed doomed to «a cala-
mity," for the rain set in and drove buyers away, and the
interests of horse-dealers and booth-keepers were as ma-
terially affected by the weather as were the interests of far-
mers and graziers by not being represented by a stock mart
in consequence of the regulations in connexion with the
cattle plague. In the afternoon a brighter state of things
set in, and thehorse show was made up, and a good demand
for horses of high stamp prevailed, tho prices reported yes-
terday being fully sustained. There was an active sale
among the herds of Irish colts, and many promising three-
year-old animals realised 40 guineas, and well-bred two-
year-old ditto 18 to 28 guineas. The droves of Welsh
ponies continued an attractive feature of the fair, and
dealers disposed of these unbroken young foresters at from
3 to 10 guineas each very freely, and it was amusing to
witness purchasers with a haltered yearling leading home
"trouble," unconscious that their new investment was but
little more than a sucking colt. There was the usual dis-
play of "old screws," &c., accompanied by horse-copoeS
who were energetic in their efforts to " chop or sell" on any
terms. There was no sheep fair, but several flocks of out-
lying ewes and lambs which had been held over from yes-
terday's fair were disposed of at advanced rates, and the
Scotch sheep-dealers sold their Cheviot flocks at reduced
prices. In the pleasure fair there was avariety of amusement
and attractions, which were well attended, and therailway
continued to transport thousands of smoky metropolitans
into Barnet Meadows. An ample provision is made in the
victualling departments, and canvas hotels offer suitable
hospitality to travellers ; and for the special accommoda-
tion of the members of the pugilistic corps and patrons of
the ring, Jemmy Welsh, Alec Keene, and Bob Travers
have separate establishments for purveying " creature
comforts." The horse fair will be chiefly among dealers to-
day (Thursday), and the horse races will take place in the
afternoon over the fields south of Barnet town.

" There is no shame to our manhood if we distrust
our own ability to endure the anguish of the body. . . It
is no secret that of late local anaithesia has been produced to
such a degree that the patient, retaining his consciousness,
can watch the surgeon's knife as it cuts to cure, and yet be
without the slightes t sensation of physical suffering."—Dally
Telegraph, July 13, 1866. "To none is the public more in-
debted than to Mr. Day."—lllustrated News, page 826, June

horrors, and we think we are only fulfilling an act of duty in
