that tho receipts wrro bounteous; TINT u,6
crowd was uncxampled, and that there was
no,li ,g to mar the delight or destroy The profit

But tharr is mc.o to be said: The Fair brought
together The largest number Of people, mainly
cut of tho six Suites Of the Northwest, that
erer gathered at any single point in either o.
those States, for any purpose Whatever: IN

half alligator. But we hazard the assertion
that never in this country-and if not in this

a single man was seen drunk; that single M

is the boast and glory o tic occasion stran-
gers from distant States wcro so impressed
With The health, strength, almost universal
youth aad constant sobsiety Of the men, with
tho radiance Of tho younger and the 1natronly
bearing Of the older women, that they could
speak Of nothing else. We lave right to
