The Pittsburgh Sanitary Fair.

PITTSBURGH, June 4.-The Sanitary Fair
Is success beyond anything yet attempted
in the country. The exhibition is on u
grand scale, and the Monitor feature, where
they have iron clad fights and exhibit the
models of the Union guns, attracted uni
versal attention. The Floral Hall is fea-
ture, acknowledged by the visitors from all
parts of the country, to exceed any in ex-
cellence of design and beauty of construc-
ton, ever attempted in the United States.
1t is emphatically bower of beauty and
art. The attendance at the several build
ings will average twenty-five thousand dali
ly, and the number increasing every day.
The receipts thus far exceed one hundred
and ninety thousand dollars.

WASHINGTON, June 40 A. M.
To Major General Dir:
Dispatches from Grants headquarters
dated the Sd, have just been received. No
operations on Thursday. Yesterday at 4:30
A. NJ, Grant made an assault on the enemies
line, of which he makes the following re-
port: We assaulted at 4:30 this A. NJ, driv-
ing the enemy within his intrenchments at
all points, but without gaining decided
advantage. We now occupy position
close to the enemy, and in some places with
in fifty yards. Our loss was not severe, nor
do | suppose the enemy lost heavily. We
captured over three hundred prisoners most
ly from Breckinridge's command. Another
official report not from Grant, estimates our
killed and wounded at 5000. Among the
killed was Col. Haskell of the 3Gth Wiscon-
sin; Col. Porter, of the Sth New York heavy
artillery, and Col. Morris, of the 66th New

The Battle to be Fought on the
ChickahOminy.

New YORK, June 4.--The Times special
from headquarters, May 31st, closes thus:
There is hardly doubt that the position
now held by the rebels in our front is but
the advanced Inc, which they will hold as
long as possible for the purpose of gaining
time to perfect the defenses on the Chicka-
hominy. On that historic line it is now
fully expected we shall ere long deliver
battle. / need not say that in the relative
pov ed sht t we are key to ' have Is o
side of Richmond, and that its result must
decide whether the rebel capitol can he
carried by coup d'main or whether it is
destined to become the object of summers

A Ludicrous Incident i'm the Life cf a

"A Ludicrous Incident I'm the Life Of a
Gay LothariO---An Intrigue md
Its Consequences.
Night before last an incident occurred on
the street which occasioned considerable
agitation to distinguished member of the
bar of Columbus, and many a hearty laugh
to those who, through the irresistible incli-
nation of the victim to spread abroad his
wrongs, became acquainted with the cir
cumstances. The gay and festive profess
sional gentleman aforesaid, who is well
known in consequence of the conspicuous
part he has heretofore taken in the political
contests of this city, belonging to the hui
manitarian and moral persuasion-by the
industrious application of his persuasive
talents effected an arrangement by which
he was to call at the house of widow lady
at late hour for purposes which need not
be enumerated. He called. The inter-
view was becoming interesting, and the
Lothario excited. Temptation overcoming
him ere his virtue could resist, and affairs
reapproachinga an immoral turn, when the
door OF the room in which the parties were
located flew open and a ferocious looking
man, supposed to be a relation of the lady,
presented pistol to the head Of tie
legal gentleman, and pulled the trigger
Happily the villainous weapon did
not 90 of, but the offender did Head
over heels he went through the open
door, dashed up Rich street and into High
street like mad man, shouting murder at
the top of his voice. 1t was evident he
was not prepared for foot race, or his
clothing would not have been in the dis
ordered condition it was. A policeman
hearing the noise and seeing man dashing
along with his unmentionables dragging
after him, gave chase. The frightened
Lothario, supposing the policeman to be the
offended relative, ran the faster and shouted
the louder, and the race became exceedingly
exciting. When opposite Simonton's Ex-
change the officer found he was not gain
ing on the runaway very fast, so he placed
his foot upon one of the dragging sus-
penders of the festive runaway-as strategem
which suddenly brought the victim to
dead halt by tripping him. With the police
mans grip upon him the festive individual
continued to shout murder until the neigh
borhood was aroused, and approached the
spot, when he began to recover his lost
senses and marched off to the calaboose.-
The affair was investigated before the
Mayor yesterday morning, and in view of
the extenuating circumstances recited by
the eloquent prisoner, his fine was fixed at
seven dollars, and he was suffered to depart
with a warning to "beware of vidders" in
the future-a warning which he solemnly
pledges himself to remember and respect.
We omit the names of the parties in this
affair upon the urgent solicitation Of the
one most interested.

NATURAL DEATH.-The Columbus Express,
an evening paper, conducted on the princi-
pies of an old fashioned almanac, has sus-
pended, and will hereafter be heard of no
more. We regret to say that a recent edi-
torial in morning paper was the cause of
the accident by which the Express was COM
PEELED to turn its moccasins to the moon
and diue. There is now no evening paper
in Columbus, leaving vacuum which is
not likely to last long. An evening paper,
to succeed in this city, must be conducted
with some reference to the wants of the
public, and not upon the idea of being the
second fiddler in a political chorus which,
at best, is not ravishingly charming. The
Express was the organ Of the +" Strong
Band,p and it may be inferred that its de-
mise is the signal of the death song of the

tude to General Grant for his signal SER
vices, was received yesterday. It's impos-

theless, of whatever may tend to strength
en- and sustain General Grant and the no.
BILE armies now under his direction. My
previous high estimate of Gen. Grant has
been maintained and heightened by what
has occurred in the remarkable campaign
he is now conducting, while the magnitude
and difficulty of the task before him does
not prove less than expected. He and his
brave soldiers are now in the midst of their
great trial, and trust that at your meeting
you will so shape your good works that
they may turn to the men and guns NOV
ing to his and their support.
Yours, truly, A. LINCOLN.
