B6THESANITARY FAIR.-An immense
amount of work was performed on Monday
night and during yesterday at the Sanitary
Fair buildings, and the whole establish.
ment made tremendous strides towards
completion. The Ladies' booths, about
forty in number, in the grand bazaar, are
now nearly completed, and they are ex,
ceediugly attractive. Last evening some
of these booths were filled with fancy arti-
cles of all descriptions. To-day all will
be flled and in full blast. A never ceasing
iastream of people, carrying contributions,
poured into the buildings from all parts Of
the city. A very interesting feature of
@ the Grand Bazaar is the neat, oleanly
!. looking little Swiss cottage in the south
east corner. II is presided over by several
young ladies, who propose to dispose of
cheese and milk to those inclined in that
direction. The English Lutheran Sabbath
School are erecting gas Liberty Tree in
Concert Hall, which will be a splendid
ornament. It lis from the establishment
of Hunter, Keller & Co., New York.
At the Gallery of Fine Arts and Curios-
tiles some very interesting donations and
contributions have been received. Among
them is a silver bowl, out of which was
drunk the first wine ever administered in
the Lords Supper west of the Allegheny
Mountains. TWAS administered by Bishop
Asbury near where Morgantown now
stands. The bowl was once stolen from
its owner by some rahsmen, but was found
on a sand bar in the Monongahela river
years afterwards. 1t is donated by Mrs.
Laidley, of Fairmont.
The Old Curiosity Shop, of the Pitts.
burgh Fair, have sent to our committee a
lot of canes and timber, gathered from the

1.-THE hearty thanks of the community
areaWelI due to the patriotic and benevo
lent ladies and gentlemen, who are deny
ing themselves, the ease and comforts q
home, and the more urgent demands {
business, in order to provide for tn
wounded and suffering in our armies an
hospitals.
E How shall we who have not so activel
participated in these labors, show our ap
probation of them2 By going to the Fair
by encouraging our friends to go; by ger
erous donations and purohRsesl We nee
not be afraid Of doing too much. We oW
the brave men in the camps and hospita
far more than We are able to pay. The
have shown themselves patriotic and gene
Gus, even to the giving of their lives. 10
can we withhold that which asks of us
sacrifice infinitely less7"
