Second Day of the Fair. Thursday morning dawned heavily as did the day previovs, but Newberry and her many delighted visitors were not by any means in a like condition. That the sun was not visible was a dis disappointment, - appointment, disappointment, but not sufiicient cause to dampen the general ardor. Soon after the gates were opened the rank and file began to gather and it was not long ere the spacious exhibition hall was pretty well filled. About this time the clouds began to thin and show patches of blue, and then the sun burst forth to the great delight ofall, mothers with their little darlings not excepted who apprehended for their precious charges nothing short of a ducking ere the day was over. Luckily the day continued fine and the hope is now en entertained - tertained entertained that the closing scenes of this our Second Annual Fair will be en enjoyed - joyed enjoyed under the influence of fair weather. It was our pleasure to ramble through the halls before the outdoor sports be began - gan began and during the shooting contest contestwhich - which contestwhich to many was terribly long longand - and longand gaze long and lingeringly upon the many beautiful pieces of woman's handiwork in the shape of quilts, coun counterpanes, - terpanes, counterpanes, crochet shawls, fascinators, sacks, pillow shams, lace handkerchiefs, collars, socks, slippers, and many others in this line; and from that to the House Household - hold Household Domestic Department where our hurried glance yesterday afforded us glimpses of bread in various forms, cakes, wines, and scores of other delec delectable - table delectable table comforts, all the conception and make up of woman-and we will be pardoned for asking here what would wo do without woman, and whatkind of bread and sweetmeats would we have? Happening about while the Committees were engaged in the work of sampling we were allowed to taste, and our judgment is that the specimens were all as good as can be made. Our spaice forbidding more than general mention and knowing that the several committees of ladies and gentlemen will do their duty though the heavens Il, we leave this interesting subject and let the reader wait for their deci deciSons. - Sons. deciSons.
