MADISON, Sept. 10.-The attendance at the
State fair was nearly $4,000 people. Gate re-
ceipts about $4,000. The exhibition promises
to be complete financial success. It certainly
is in point of general interest. The balloon
ascension this afternoon was declared off owing
to the failure in gas, but will come off to.mor-
row. The society is niggardly, and does not
enter the trotting races, which this afternoon
we're devoid of interest, but good running races
are promised for Tomorrow. The weather to-
day was perfect and much warmer than yester-
day.
