THIRD DAN.
Yesterday, the last day of the fair, opened
gloomily, with damp, cold wind and an APP
pearance of rain. which deferred many persons
from going out in the forenoon. But a con.
siderable addition was made to the numbers
present by arrivals during the latter portion of
the day. On the whole, we think the attend
ance fully equal to that of the preceding day.
The various awards were made by the judges
during the day, but at q late hour last evening
the lists had not been completed, SO that it
could he obtained for publication.
There were some additional entries made
yesterday morning, particularly in the stock
line, and there were also some articles which
we did not notice in our previous accounts,
amongst them a Booths Patent Shaker, de-
serving of special commentator exhibited
by Mr.. Chapman, of Chicago, and for sale by
D. G. jones'. This is most admirable inven.
tion-separates the grain most effectually from
oats, buckwheat, and other impurities This
machine should be in general use-it is just
what every farmer wants. uranium WAS
