THE DAILY DISPATCH
Ta1D4Y MORNING. NoVEMsER II. 1854
Lrsr OF Pa NUNS AWARDED AT rns

Fan OF THE MECHANICS ISsTITuTE-We
Law before our readers this morning, list Of
the premiums awarded at the Fair of the Me-
chanics Institute, which closed at Corinthian
Hail. last night. As will be perceived, no
awards were made in classes one, two and
three, owing to the tact that no articles Of
special merit were entered under those
heads.
In looking over the catalogue, we find that
a large number of beautiful articles were
sent to the exhibition too late to compete for
premiums, or to be examined by the various
committees. This, we feel assured, will be
avoided next year, as the ladies, mechanics,
manufacturers and artists will have ample
time to send in specimens of their labors in
due season:
