RATES OF FARE.-We invite attention
to the ad advertisement OF the Street Rail-
way Company, which appears in an
other column. giving the rates OF fare
between the Post Office and the Island.
aud the Post Office and Bridgeport.
Tickets from the Post Office to any
point on the Island, can be purchased
at the company's office under the
Mcclure House, at the rate OF I6 for
800: tickets for Bridgeport, 10 for
100. Single fares are Z cents to the
Island; to Bridgeport, II cents.
At first sight these fares may seem
rather high, but when IL Is taken into
consideration that the Bridge Company
charge the Railway four cents for every
passenger carried, 1t will be seen that
The Railway cannot operate at less
prices than those charged. Whether
the passenger pays his toll by the
month or the year, It is all the same,
the four cents have TO be paid by the
Railway Company.
II really seems as though the Bridge
Company has not acted in a very lib
eral spirit in this matter. But not
Withstanding this, the Railway Com
pAny has concluded to run the cars to
accommodate the people of the Island
and Bridgeport nt profit considerably
smaller than is made on the main stem.

TO give satisfaction, either in resisting

put through a process that frees II from
oil and benzole, and no matter now

equally efficient in roofs Of every con-
ceivable pitch. Mr.. rumbacker keeps

THE OFERA.-It is but seldom chat
our music.loving citizens Chose OF them
who stay at home) have the opportuni-
ty to listen to performance like that
given, last evening, at Washington
Hall. Attempt Mt criticism on our part
would be simply-absurd. We have no
words but TO praise. Those who heard
La Grange, Briguoli aud the rest, last
evening, In the celebrated produc-
ton of Rossini, the Barber of
Seville, will join with us in say
ing they never heard sweeter melody
or more delightful harmony than that
produced by those distinguished artists.
Although unable to understand the
words OF the singers, yet the ma
JoFity of the audience, familiar
with the plot OF the opera, APP
preCinted the spirit with which
II was rendered, and went home wish
ing they could listen to such music
every night in the week.s
When next the interchangeable and
uncOnquerable Max StrakOsch, who,
in his line as caterer to the musical
tastes OF the public, is certainly as
great as any of the heroes OF ancient
or modern times were, or are, in theirs,
makes musical tour through the
country, we hope he will not forget TO
put Wheeling down on his list OF cities.

AGRICULTURAL FAIR-FOURTH AND
CLOSING DAT.-The attendance at the
Fair, yesterday, was quite as good as
that of the day preceding, and we un-
derstand, the receipts of the four days
are sufficient to meet all expenses and
leave margin over.
The agricultural implement depart

We noticed some moving machines,
corn shelters, &C.
=. NJ, Wheat s. Co. had specim ems OF
common, stock and pressed, brick on
exhibition. These gentlemen have ac-
quired quite a local reputation in the
manufacture OF the latter. They com
pare very favorably with those made In
the East. For Our part, we think

elsewhere.
The printed programme for the day
was carried out, aud the visiters pres
eut were treated TO some very exciting
horse races.

RUNNING RAcE.-A race which ex-
cited the mirth of the spectators came
OF yesterday afternoon, at the Fair
Ground, between the first and second
heats OF the sweepstakes race. One
horse WAS ridden by a black boy in n
white shirt; the other, by white boy
in "A red shirt. Tho latter was indider-
emily mounted and before the close OF
the mile his horse was about played.
But after passing the score, n long way
behind the black boys horse, he ran 10
the upper turn, and his rider pulling
him towards tho outside too suddenly,
showed that he still had some agility
left, by jumping over the fence at the
edge of the track.
