FAIR.-The Fair now 10 progress at Cantcr-
bury Hall, for the benefit Of the NJ. E. Church
South is most successfully managed concern
the crowds that flock there testifying by their
attendance it's popularity. We understand thai
so great was the rush at the rcfreshment tables
and ice cream saloons ORIGINALLY deemed sufli
GENTLY capacious for the probably demand) that
new stands for this purpose we're erected yestcr-
day, and the ladies are now prepared to accom-
MEDIATE all customers who may call on them.
It will be seen by reference to another column
that some disagreeable scenes were enacted last
night.
1t was hoped that the day for these things
was past, and that spirit Of Cancellation and
mutual forbearancc would prevail. We are as
sured by the military authorities that any at
tempt by the soldiers of the United States, to
interfere or disturb the quiet and good order
that has happily prevailed SO far, in the pre-
gress of this Fair, will meet with most deter
mined check, and the disturhers punished -
But we feel safe in re-aSSuring any who may
have been alarmed last night-and many ofthc
ladies were very much so-wth the promise
that in future they may feel secure from moles-
tation. and that, henceforth none but apreea.
bic scenes will be Witnessed The Tahicaux
are alone great attraction, and some Of the
De, sopatious were as beautiful as We have ever
witnessed The ladies deserve especial credit
for this part Of the nightly programme Sec
