ST. JosEPH's FAIR.-The fair given
by the st. Joseph Brass Band on Sat
urday and Sunday last was COM
plete success i'll every way. The va
cant lot on Iberville, between Lessard
and st. Patrick streets, was used as
fair ground and fitted up in an ele-
giant and tasteful manner. In the
middle of the lot was raised plat
form for the band, and from which
the st. Joseph RECALLED the fair goers
with frequent choice musical selee-
tions. On either side of the grounds
was u bar at which liquors of all kinds
could be obtained. Ranged along
the sides and rear were the restaurant
and refreshments tables presided over
by willing hands. Meats, fowls, fruit,
ice cream and various other delica-
cies were to be had in abundance,and
every one attending were well pleased
with the accommodations. On both
days the fair was well patronized, and
each night the grounds were crowded.
The utmost quiet and deeorum was
preserved and not a single drunken
man or other obnoxious character was
ever present. We have been furnished
a list of those who had charge of the
various tables, but regret that want
of time and press of official matter
that must be published will preven
us from inserting them. We should
greatly have liked to have given
more extended account of this fair
but, for the reasons above stated, eoui'
not do so. The exact amount realized
has not yet been ascertained, but
considerable sum must haveR beef
made.
