The attendance at the Fair yesterday was
not as large as on the day previous. This
was doubtless occasioned by the sudden
and rather disagreeable change in the
weather. The day opened warm enough,
with indications of rain, but from II o'clock
TO O'Clock, the change was quite percepti-
bic to those who happened to be caught out
with light garments, the atmosphere by the
aid of strong Northwestern, being chilly
and unpleasant, and particularly objection
able to those who subjected themselves to
the free passage of air through the aisles
and promenades of the amphitheater.
