Rsults bf 81. John. Falf 1.-The Fair and
Festival oil st, Johns Church closed on Tues-
day evening. 1t was literally pah onized,
and it's success, we believe quite equslled the
antcipatons of its projectors. The amount
realized was in the neighborhood OF $500,
which we trust will enable the object for which
| the Fair was held to be accomplished. All who
| visited it seemed to enjoy themselves thorough
| ly. On Tuesday evening, the beautiful silk flag
which was won by the Boys in Blue, was pre-
scented with appropriate exercises. They
marched to the Hall in body. Anthony Hig-
| gins, Esq., received the flag at the hands Of
1 Miss DUPONT, and presented it on behalf OF the
ladies'. Captain B. Nialds received il at the
hands Of Mrs II l. Thtnall, and responded on
| the part Of the Boys in Blue. National airs
were played by the Quintette Club and cheers
given for the ladies OF the Fair and for the nag.
The majority tor the Boys was very decided
over every other organization
A novel and most amusing incident at the
end OF the fair was the presentation OF Bach
elor's Picture. This was picture represent
| ing the inconvenience OF single blessedness,
and was to be given to the Bachelor receiving
the highest number OF votes The competitors
were Levi Bird Esq, DR.. D. W. Maui. Capt.
Nields, and $. NJ: Harrington, Esq. Mr.. Bird
obtained it and received it Mt the hands of
Mr.. D. W. Taylor, and was congratulated by
Capt. Nields. The speeches of these gentle
men were very witty, and the whole affair
created great deal OF mirth. The music by
| the Quintette Club was most delightful, aud
added aot little 10 the pleasures OF each eve
ming. Altogether we think the congregation
may we'll be congratulated on the results OF
| the FAIR.
