Peter F Daley, the comedian, who be.
gan his starring tour last season under
such favorable circumstances, began a
weeks engagement at the Park Theater,
Philadelphia, last evening. The play,
which seeks to introduce the jocund Pc,
ter and his companions, is entitled " a
Country Sport, suggestive of lot of fun,
and built expressly to fit the unique tai
ents Of Mr.. Daley, by John ]. McNally
Though long favorite in farce, Mr. Dali
ley first essayed to star last season, and
as was predicted by everybody familiar
with his varied accom- plishments, he
was promptly installed by the public in
very exalted position among the farce
comedians of the day. In New York,
the most critical Of all cities, Mr. Daley
succeeded in packing the Bijou Theater
for sixteen weeks. The excellent judg-
ment displayed in the selection of a
supporting company. and the fact that
all we're given eqnal opportunity with
the star, likewise redounded greatly to
Peters credit, and that practically the
same cast is employed this season will be
joyful news to theateF goers.

The forty eighth annual fair of the Bur
lington County Agricultural Society was
held last week. The weather was not so
desirable as it might have been, Thurs
day, the usual big day, being stormy from
morning till night. The attendance that
day, in view of the bad weather, was re-
markedly large.
The displays were in the main good in
every department. The exhibits of en-
broidered and fancy work were better
than for number OF years past. The
agricultural displays were good, as were
also those in the pastry department.
The exhibits of manufactured articles
attracted considerable attention. There
were two good displays of bicycles, a new
feature.
The trotting races were not as good as
last year, and there were not as many en-
tries of general utility horses as usual.
The bicycle races, on Wednesday par
ticuarly, we're very interesting, and ere
ated more enthusiasm than the trottine
events 1t is probable that the bicycle
races will be made a regular feature
hereafter
There were more takers, side shows,
&C., than usual The "Nautch dancing
girls" attracted more attention than any
of that class of shows, their tent always
being crowded.
Good order was maintained on the
grounds, and there were fewer arrests
than usual
Below will be found complete sum
mary OF the races, and a partial list of the
premium winners:
