THE WILLIS CAsE.-The Boston Journals
ideas of sensational journalism are certainly
peculiar. The other day the PRESS published
the facts in the Willis case as they were devel.
oped by the testimony before Judge Symonds.
Nothing was said as to the merits of the case
and no sides taken in the controversy. Yet
the Journal describes this account as ''rather
sensational" and then proceeds to publish
history of the case, in which almost the first
line contains gross blunder in the statement
that the question before fine court was Mr.. Will
lis sanity, whereas it was simply whether or
not he had been legally arrested and detained.
The Intelligent reader will be much more likely
20 consider an account which opens with such
an error as this, and proceeds on e1 parte testi-
mony throughout rather sensational" than
the report of a judicial investigation, where
both sides were heard. A definition by the
Journal of sensational journalism would be
very entertaining.

STATE STREET W1LLIsToN FAIR AND OLD
Folks CoNCERT.-Last night was the last
evening of the Wlliston fair at State street
chapel. The attendance was large and the fair
has been a financial as well as social success
Notwithstanding the unfavorable weather of
Wednesday. A very unique and attractive
feature of the evenings entertainment was the
centennial exercises and old folks concert.
George Washington was there with his very
best clothes on; and SO were many of his most
distinguished friends in the cabinet, the con-
gress, and the field. The ''estimable LADY, of
the President and others of the fairest of the
women of those times were initiated and per-
haps rather surpassed by the beauty of Stale
street. Those beauties OF hundred years ago
are almost all dead and so can't have their re.
venge On US for exaltipg the charms of their
modern imitators. There was centennial
table, where no table-furnishings were permit
ted less than hundred years old, and where
the eminent of their time sat and partook of
refreshments like mere ordinary secular people.
There was good old.fashioned singing, too, and
a heartily good time in every way.
