ST. JOsEpH's FAIR.

The May festival and entertainment for the
benefit of st. Joseph's new church opened brill
liantly last evening at ST. Joseph's Hail. at the
corner of Derbgny and Common streets. The
entertainment presented many delightful fea-
lures, not the least Of which were the bright
beaming faces OF the lovely ladies who have
charge OF the affair. The st. Joseph's festivals
have for several years been given about this
period. and have always proved highly sue :ess-
full. We have every reason to believe that the
present one will also be a pecuniary success.
and will provide handsome sum for the con-

which is the largest and most imposing place Of
