THIRD DAY.
The day opened rather gloomy, and
it was feared by many that it would
rain before night, but by 8 o'clock the
skies began to brighten, and the peo-
pie began TO pour into the grounds in
large numbers, and before noon more
people were on the ground than atany
time during yesterday. BY taking a
look through the grounds we found
that quite number of additional en-
tries had been made, and the display
is fully up to that of last year.
