WEDNESDAY MORNING. NOVEMBER 10, ISIS.
THE FIFTH
Annual Exhibition
OF THE
VIRGINIA MECHANICS INSTITUTE

the highest order, but the running machinery Of
various kinds, were novel as we'll as superb. and
won the admiration of all who visited the hall -
IL Is TO be regretted that so few Of our CITY mes
chanics were represented In this grand and impo.
sing industrial display, bat now that the Institute
has hall of its own, and ample room TO show off
what Richmond workmen can do, We have no
doubt, that many Of them will take care to be re.
presented in the next Exhibition; aud that. for
all tine 10 eeme, our Northern friends when they
visit Virginia, will find worthy competitors in the
working men of the Old Domnion To the ladies'
ever foremost in good works, too much credit
cannot be given for their liberal and beautiful
contributions to the Fair just closed and to those
especially who were not successful in getting pre-
miums, We can only say, be not discouraged, but
go to work at once, determined to deserve success
at the next exhibition.
We append below the
