Last Day of the Fair.

To-day will positively be the last day Of
the sixth grand State Fair Of Louisiana.
Very remarkably, there has been no rain
since the present fair commenced, and
there have been no detentions or Interrupt
tions to interfere with its success.
The display of the manufactures inven-
ventions, arts and products of Louisiana
has been better than ever before, and it's
effect has been beneficial upon the public
mind, affording, as it has done, a very con-
vincing proof that ''there is life il the old
land yer"
The. management of the fair have made
some mistakes, which we need not now
point out. They are errors which can be
remedied, and many of these errors have
been in the awards Of premiums. Impor-
tant interests have had too little encour-
agement, and unimportant interests have
had too much. We may analyze this mat
ter after all the awards have been made
and published. We do not impugn the
good intentions of any one, but shall try to
point out how errors may be corrected.
The attendance Saturday, including the
children Of the public schools, was i'm
mense, but it was more immense Sunday.
Yesterday the children of the various Or
phan asylums in this city visited the Fair
Groundssand they enjoyed intensely what
they san, and made others happy by their
enjoyment.
The races are well enough in their way,
and, we are glad to notice, have become a
subordinate feature In our State fair.
The essential object Of these fairs, as we
understand it, is to show what Louisiana
can do in the way Of manufactures, pro-
auctions, inventions and the cultivation of
the fine arts, all of which mot even exclud-
ing the productions of the soip are yet in
their comparative infancy.
There are mineral product lions that ought
to have had some space devoted to them in
the Fair Grounds buildings. For instance
the product of the Petit A1nse salt mines,
which only need cheap transportation to
render them immensely valuable to the salt
mining company and the whole State; and
there are bottled up on the shelves of an
obscure Office on Carondelet street speci-
mems of sulphur from the most valuable
sulphur mines in the world, located within
the territory of Louisiana.
Let our future State fairs show what Lou
isiana can do in every department of in
dustry.

The Ma rtinetti-Ravel Troupe.

Contrary to the expectation OF the pro-
verbal '.old citizen" that no exhibition, no
matter how much talent it contained, could
draw at the present time, an immense au-
dience greeted this troupe on their initia-
tory performance Sunday evening. It is
really compliment to them. j. w. Wal
lack, Collins, Januaschek played nightly to
a beggarly row Of empty benches, while
this troupe, almost unknown, unheralded,
drew one of the most magnificent houses Of
the season.
Their opening performance was the cele-
brated pantomime Of "Jocko," for which
rendition the original Raves troupe was
made famous few years ago. The first
part of the piece is insignificant, but anus
ing. The capers Of the mischievous mon
key-Darwin's pet theorist-were wonder
full in every sense Of the word. Although
at times bordering on extremes, it did not
fail to elicit several hearty rounds Of ap-
n,ause. Jocko, as delineated by Paul Mar
finetti. is a successful imitation of the
baboon, and he deserves great commenda-
ton for the delineation.
The olio was really the performance OF
the evening. Ignacio, the boy WONDER, sang
the beautiful ballad of "Our Freddy died
this morning" in sweet voice, and his
childish simplicity added much TO the
pathos of the song. The audience were
then favored by a delightful solo on the
banjo by Mr.. William A. Huntley. The ar
rangement of "Home, Sweet Home" with
-ariations, was one Of the most classic per
formances that we ever listened to, and the
hast ever played in this city. Every note
Was 80 clear and distinct that it peryaded
the innermost portion of the theatre,
rh;,a the audience were held in
hnnds stronger than steel or iron;
. hreatheless silence reigned, and
wben they performed the Chimes"
wv i'm Imitation of the Trinity Church chimes in
NV York. the audience could not restrain
the;r enthusiasm longer, but gave vent to
- in a long and deafening round of ap-
nl,rse He holds the instrument In almost
| every conceivable position, though they are
ali Graceful pastures, and plays with an
ease that is astonishing. .:u.ou.:
TIE ballet was succession OF interesting
| featnres new and novel. This was extreme
| " pleasing. especially the terpsichorean Ell
| forts OF Nile Desseire. Little Adeles high
| land fling was prettily executed:
Mr.. Hunter sang in an exquisite anu Iicn !
voice the comic and difficult song OF II
Won know What know" This was the Sig
nal of sever.l rounds of applause.
The evenings entertainment concl4ue;n
with "PataCake, Pat-a- Cake, bakers
Man" delightful spectacular panto1nn e,
which was well received. The dresses ale
entirely new anS original, and the panVo-
mime is one Of thu best in existence.

affray which occurred on the levee Satur-
