BRUNSWICK, May 27.-The close Of a county
fair is attended with even greater hustle and
excitement than characterizeS the open
ing days. Visitors have been enjoying
the occasion. now that the pleasures are
ended, are anxious to reach their homes with
out delay, and everybody wishes to go on the
first train, consequently there is crowding
and discomfort The experienced traveller,
however, calmly waits until the rush is over,
and journeys homeward with more satisfac-
tion and pleasure. The exhibitors, officers
Of the society, and the committees, who have
devoted their time and labor to the interests
Of the fair, are equally as eager to get away
and settle down to the routine duties of life,
now that the exhibition is over. Under such
circumstances it is not surprising that the city
to-day is extraordinarily lively; the streets are
thronged with vehicles loaded with the
exhibits, and the various departments at the
fair grounds rapidly despoiled of their at
fractions and novelties.

was detained at home by sickness, Col. Casey was
elected, and in taking the chair made brief
speech of welcome, in which he said that there
were few works of interest to engineers in this
2Que1uct and a stone arch of the largest span
known to exist. There is also the underpinning
OF a structure which IS OF some interest. There
are other things which the society would perhaps
De interested in; such as the harbor OF Washing
ton and the flats, which the do tors tell is the
cause OF so much sickness here. We hope that
there VIII be soon enough money to enable engin-
GERS u look at the flats with additional interest.
Again the city is not well supplied with water,
