THE FAIR.
The ladies of Richmond who take deep and un-
firing interest IN the Female Orphan Asy lump, have
again adopted this popular mode of making collec-
lions for this institution. II viii DO recoleCted that

hope like result will be obtained By the present at

greatest objections the last will be obvintcd by
osing the Court Room which is much more spacious
than the room up stairs, used last year
