ST.. PATRIcK's FATR.-There was a very
good attendance al the Greonlaw Halllast
evening, and the many attractions offered
to pleasurs-seekers appeared TO be .1ppre-
cist5d. Ssxhy's quadrille band was kept
busy furnishing music to h lovers 'ofthe
dance, which appears to be a leading fea-
ture at this festival. The polls were also
opened, and many votes received for ia
vOrite candidates. For the fine gold head
ed cane, for the candidate for Mayor, votes
were recorded for Gel. LenOw, MIR. G.. A.
Hanson, Mr.. II. J. Lynn, Maj. J. J. Raw
lings and Maj. Ruffin, the former gentle
mar being ahead. For the saddle, for the
Chief of Police, Capt. Pat. Winters and
Alderman Tom O'Donnell are the most
prominent. A magnificent hunting-case
gold watch is the prize for the favOrite
candidate for Tax Collector, the contest
ants being Felix W. Robertson. Capt. w.
T. ThurmOnd, and Mr.. Charles VI. Carroll.
The voting FOR the antlers, for the most
gallant reCompauy, was not commenced,
in or the absence of the poll
bOoks-an enthusiastic gent wanted to
vote for the No. IS during Our visit TO the
hail. The contest for the Wharfmaster
prize, and the blrrel of -four for the best
housekeeper viii be inaugurated tonight.
In our report of the fair yesterday we
failed to notice that the refreshment table

sents attractions to suit the taste of all.
