The New England Fair.

THE ssNEW ENGLAND FAIR" will be
issued daily the four days of the Fair, and
will be distributed gratuitously to the crowds
Of visitors at the Hall, and on the Fair
grounds. 1t aviu contain brief but faithful
Transcript of matters of interest pertaining
to the Fair, and a history of its progress
from day to dag.
Of the "Maine State Fair last year, one
fact was particularly noticeable, that while the
grounds were literally strewn with every con-
ceiyable form of circular and advertising sheet
nota copy of our paper was to be
found trOdden under foot at the
Hall or on the Fair Grounds. The
reason is obvious. Every page contained in
formation and items of interest relative to the
Fair. Consequently the paper was read and
re-read, and preserved, or sent to friends, thus
/ adding thousand fold to its value as an ad-
vertising medium. @T
From our experience as publishers of the
Maine State Fair" and our practical know
lege of the wants Of advertisers, we believe we
can offer the best possible medium by which
they may reach their customers and the pub
lie generally.
We therefore invite the attention and pat
ronage of all exhibitors at the Fair, and of our
friends and the public generally.
To insure space, apply early.

LONDON, July 16.-The protest against the
Irish Church bill by the Earl Of Derby is sign
ed by forty-seven Peers. 1t was entered against
this bill on the ground that it looked to the
severance of the church and State, a project
unrecognized by any country in Europe. The
bill would encourage the designs of those who
want Irish severance Throughout the King
dom, together with the resumption of grants
and the confseation of property The protest
further states that the passage of the bill was
a violent stretch of the powers of Parliament,
and shakes confidence in all property, and es-
pecialy that resting on Parliamentary titles
4 1t sets forth the impossibility of putting the
disestablished and disendowed Church on the
footing and organization of the Catholics, and
that this grievance alenates the Irish Protes-
tants from the support Of the throne and stim-
ulates the demands of the Catholics.
The Times to-day has an editorial on the ac-
ton taken by the House of Commons last
night 1t says the bill will go back to the
House of Lords in almost its original shape.
The Commons have decided that the amend
ments adopted by the Lords are inconsistent
with the bill, and there is no reason to believe
the Commons will surrender. If the Lords
persist collision must ensue, which will result
in a popular agitation and a renewal of the
measure, with fiercer determination to carry
it through. The Times trusts that the Con-
servative Peers will be content with the pre-
sentation of the Earl of Derby's protest. which
usage allows them and not continue their OPP

Meetings of the people in support of the
Commons on the Irish Church bill continue to
be held in various parts of the kingdom.
