The State Fair.

The state fair, held at Decatur last week,
in spite of its somewhat inauspicious begin.
ming, turned out the most successful exhibit
bition ever held by the society. The attend
ance for the last three days averaged $4,000
people with receipts at the gate of nearly
$4,000 day. 1t was success not only in
the number and quality of articles and ami
mails exhibited. but financially, the receipts
being some $4,000 in excess of any previous
fair, while the expenses have been less. The
reduction in expenses was owing to the fact
that the horse jockeys were not invited and
did not come. On previous occasions, three,
four, or even as highas five thousand dollars
were paid to this worthless and demoralizing
class. The Illinois Agricultural Society here.
after will do without them. Z hlh'tl

BY which that locality ever was afflicted.
The railroads, as usual on such occasions,
were stopped by bridges, culverts, &C., being
washed away. At Manyunk, Pa, a bridge was
washed away with two boys upon it, who
were drowned. Aorristown, N. Y, had
z feet of water in the street. Immense dam
age was done in Baltimore by submerging
goods in cellars. Westfeld, Mass, suffered
100000 damage by the inundation. Rus
