CURIOSI7IES Of A RAINY DAT.

Correspondence of The n. Y. Tribune.
HARTFORD, Friday Evening, Oct ~, 1855.
The last day of the Connecticut State fair has
passed away. wrote you this merDing that the
prospect was gloomy. The occasional showers
grew more and more thick until they finally ran
together into one constant pouring rain, under the
influence Of which the red soil of Hartford and its
surroundings became a semliqud mass, or about
the consistency of a tub of paint of the color of a
New.YOrk brown-stOne front. The Fair ground
was about as pleasant for pedestrians New
York streets in March thaw.
Amd all the mud and misery one Of the curios:
tiles Of the day was to see men Flooding out al
The way on foot to save TIE York shilling" stage
fare, and to use up the last of their member
tickets. l was amused az one party-s father and
two daughters, / judged by the family likeness
who came in last to see the Fair, aud were de-
termiDed not TO be cheated out OF tbelr trip. 1t
was raining, pleasantly for young ducks, when
they came inslCe the Enclosure, after hltchlng the
old mare carefully to the fence, and expected to
see them push for the first place Of shelter, as they
had but one umbrella, and that none OF your ex
tfaysgsnt sort, to cover the three. Not bit it.
I Where shall we begin, father" said one of
The girls.
"kight here for want to see whether there
are any such oxen here as !ou read about IN HE
TRIBrNE. Three hundred dollars pair-i don't
believe IT,"
Twas budding and shiyering under one of the
sheds when caught these words. Ho, no. then
said to myself, am the guilty man-it is l
that has caused this man to turn out quite unex-
pectedy to come to this show, and to be caught
here in this rain, no amount Of which could keep
him from examining the working oxen TO see Il L
had reported the truth. The trio at once srose to
the dignity If being 10 the greatest objects OF
curiosity in the whole show. Iopeaed my ears as
well as my eyes
"Oh no, father, MT here. Let's 20 over to that
building we shall get as wet as drowned rata.
There, j am over shoes in water now"
"Well, then, you wont wet that foot again. You
and Lucy would come, and I've paid the money for
the tickets-s whole dollar-snd there's two tick
cts lost csuse your city cousins afraid OF little
rain, and AM agoing to have the worth of my
money. am going to see all there is here to see
30 come along; don't want the umbrella I've got
good thick boots on"
II was the FIRST time that ever had realizing
sense that pair OF thick boots would serve In stead
M an umbrella But the old man was satis6ed
and the girls gathered up heir outside garments and
stood close under their cotton roof, and put the
best foot ioIwsrd- probably they put foot IN it

The Ell DORADO AFFAIR.-Ehe Washington
correspondent of the New York Times says
The friends of the Administration here assert
that the President has ordered that extreme meas
ures be taken, if necessary. ia exact instant
paration at Havana for the outrage upon the stea-
mer FL Dorado
We have heard talk of this sort before, When
the Black Warrior affair occurred, our Brigadier
General President expected to do something
very ferocious in the shortest Imaginable time but
to this day We have heard of no reparation by the
Spanish government for that outrage. Democra-
cv used to chafe like a Gagged lion, under Mr..
Fillmore's administration because he did not send
our navy to lombard Havana, every time Cuba
crooked her finger at The particulars OF the
Ell Dorado affair, as given by the commander OF
that steamer make a case which requires govern
mental action. We trust it may be as prompt
and decisive as the friends of the President antc-
ipate. For our part, think the numerous IN
provoked and unrepaired insults to this country
by Cuban officials would have justified their chas
tisement by the sword, any time these five years
