to the ladies, most interesting portion Of the
exhibition in this hall, viz. the needlework,
and we know that we shall fail to do Justice
TO the subject. Where so many line speci-
mems of ornamental needle-work Of every
kind is placed upon exhibition. il is difficnt
to decide impartially, and we envy not the
committe on this department.

tied, both in Floral Hall and the Hall for
ornamental and useful articles.
In the latter hall are also displayed fruits

other needle work. Most of the articles ex-
hiblted here were made by young Misses,
and are of great interest to the admirers Of
I youthful genius.
