Mystic Grange Fair.

The falr at Mystic Grange Hail. Belmont,
Tuesday, Oct. Sd, was a success in every
way. The day was fine. At II o'clock the
crowd began to come, and by o'clock there
was not standing room in the hall, and not
much more than that on the grounds. The
stock exhibited was first class while the
show of vegetables and fruit was, as one
man remarked, Better than at Monroe"
