ELNIRA, Wednesday evening, Oct. 3 1861
The results of the day upon the whole have been
favorable The unpromisng appearance of the weather
this morning has doubtless kept back great many

the middle of the day, when the sun shown brightly
it was little too warm for the costume used in the

and wooden sbswls very comfortable to the thousands
who have TO ride home by moonlight.
Although the crowd hss not been a dense one III the

them to zee ard upon the ty Of the stock,

great work for the State. There is no occason, at
