Wednesday, the Fair for the benefit of the
new Episcopa Church will commence. The
ladies of St. Pauls congregation, assisted BY
many Others, have been busy for months IN
preparation for this Fair, and we doubt not
that the exhibition alone will more than re-
paw the trouble Of going. But besides the
thousand and one articles which female in
genuity has made, and which female ingenu-
ity alone knows bow to use, there will be a
we'll spread table, and the instinct Of any
man will tell him why that is there. Every
thing to please the eye and the taste will be
there, and when these articles are offered for
such purpose, and by such salesman, We
were about to say vendors, there can be no
one With the least ,pretentiops 10 a heart who
can refuse to buy.
The articles are doubtless, valuable in them
selves, but they are rendered doubly pre-
cious by the knowledge that they have been
wrought by the bands of our fair ladies. The
cause is noble and holy one, and we hope
that our citizens will aid these ladies' in their
effort to raise money to assist in building
this church.
1t is said that the people OF Norfolk are
very liberal in giving money for the support
Ct Foreign Missions; we hope that they viii
be no less liberal in assisting the church and
the cause of religion in our OWE city. We
hope that all who can do so will attend this
Fair, bat we have word OF advice, 'fput
money in your purse before you 90.
The friends Of religion and the public gen
orally, are invited TO attend, and 70 come
