the entertainment to conclude with
q ball. The desire to see these
quaint reminders of the graceful
way in which our grandfathers and
grandma others disp0rted themselves
In the mazes of the dance, is uni
versal, and we have no doubt but
that the hall will be crowded to its
fullest capacity.
The collection of fruits, flowers

Of the Society, who, in short and
felicitous speech, in which he re-
turned thanks to those who had
had charge Of the details, declared
the Fair was at on end. The ball
was well attended and proved to be
q most enjoyable affair.

AS is right and proper should be
the case, the sales of the ILLUS
TRATED HERALD during the past
week, have been very lively. One
gentleman from the East, who
yesterday called and bought ten
copies to send to his friends and
neighbors In that section, said to
us that the work Is the prettlest
thing of the kind he had ever seen
issued on the American continent.
This is really the frozen truth.
There has been no single publica.
ton Of the character of an adver-
tising sheet which has approached
tbis exquisite work. For the sim
gle fine lithograph of Los Angele 9
in 1857 and 1881, we paid H. s.
Crocker & Company, $225. We
put the work on eighty-pound
paper, and no issue of Harper's s
Weekly or Scribner's Monthly can
be produced which is a patch upon
1t. About a thousand copies sfe
left, which the local pride of our
cultivated people should cause

give a reward of $50 to any body
