SECOND DAY.

y Notwithstanding the showers yesterday,
sIthere was an immense concourse of people at
SSsthe halls, both forenoon and afternoon, and a
every large attendance in the evening, in spite of
Athe terrific storm that ragged. Every room was
,Scrowded during the day, and it was difficult at
5stimes to press from one room to another. The
sapeople from the surrounding towns came in in
Charger numbers than we have known for lon Q
Sstime, and, all appeared pleased with the exhi-
Sation.
n Thus far the Fair has been great success.
1And this success will continue unless the
sastorm, which prevails at the time of writin q
sathls, should continue True it will not break
Eaup the exhibition in the halls but it will ma
6aterlally damage the Fair grounds and track to-
an extent as to prevent the anticipated
Araces.
