The grounds are beentifelly'located, just outside the. western limits of the city and cover about fifty acres. The exhibition build- ings are of wood, destitute or all orna- mentation, being more for use than looks. There were 1,763 entries, among which were 88 head of cattle, 153 horses 92 sheep, the besfrof these being from Canada, 107 Swine, and a small coned.: tion of poultry. The short horns ,made a very good show, and the horses, as might be expected Were above the aver- age. There was a very. fine , display of house and eat plants, and a most extra- ordinary exhibit of textile fabrics,rnostly domestic productions,the orchard, the dairy, and the farm, as :to grain and roots made but a very meagre display, and. of machinexy, there were next to nothing. The kitehen and the pantry with 169 entries,gave very clear evidence of the kind, of produce the mistress -of the ClaSille delights in among our Amer- ican cousins. Preserves, bottled fruit, plum cakes, and all . kinds of goodies made the teeth of the youngsters present water. This reminds me, by the way, that while you can get. cakes, pies, pre- serves, and all that kind of thing ad nauseam, although all of excellent qual- ity at almost any American table, it is the rarest thing imaginable to, see a choice andwelt cooked joint of Meat be- - fore you. The butchers often don't know bow to cut their meat, and when the housewife does get a choice -Gilt, she is almost sure to spoil it by serving it up with all the juice cooked out of it; and floating in some abonainablb mix- ture of, fat gravy. Boiled shoe;leather or stewed sponges floetine in seal oil, would in many cases be clout as pale, - table and nutritious as the apology for roast beenyon see on some table's in the West. But to return to the exhibition, take it as a whole, it was, I think, be- hind au average township fair in Can- ada: In fact, out here, as I said before, corn and. hogs are almost everything. Of late years, there has been a great im- provement in cattle and farmers are every year giving greater attention to stock -raising. It would be unfair, too, not to notice the vary superior horses raised in this part of the States., - IN THE RUSS d not sell to -day for enough acceued ril,erest due on o, nor eventhe unpaid taxes is not a bad position from which , to study htiman nature,' especially of a holiday when the competition for accom- modation, affords opportunity for the outcome of "true inwardness," of the competitors. But 1 never -saw a more rowdy -looking, "rude and boyish lot of human beings than crowded the omni - busses that ran during the fair days to the Exhibition grounds. 'There seemed to be no restraint whatener. In those in whieli I rode, in whi iii there were le several respectable lady , asserigers, to- bacco smoke, profane laneuage and free and. easy pastimes were tindulged in ap- parently without the slightest deference to their presence. But, perhaps, this is not surprising when WO think of some of Come off t my vote w TUE CONCOMITANTS OF THE FAIR. - Intoxicatiug liquors were allayed to be sold on the grounds.Horse racing and betting were among the amuse- ments more attractive to many than the industrial exhibition. Tho Lord's day, before opening, was profaned. by the employment of -workmen in the preparation for the cuining week. The a rowdy class had thus special attrac- tions to the grounds, land their numbers ,seemed to lower the tone of the whole thing, . „ I Call understand the feelings of your Colorado correspondent with reference to the moral atmosphere of that re- gion. It is not much better here, on other days as well as fair days, there is much to e,hock the seusibilities of one accustomed to the social atmosphere ef such a place as Brantford. _Ai I go to Church on Sunday morning, I pass near the butchers' shops, which are open and doing the best business of the week possibly. Customer's are fitting on garments in the clothing stores, and at eight, as we return from the sanctu- ary, the streets are ablaze with the gas lights of druggists, confectioners, . to- bacconists' and other shops. I am sor- ry to say that even many Christian • people here have but a very low view of the sanctity of the Lord's Dy, as their practice proves. But happi y there are more than" ten righteous -persons ''' in most of these communities.- „Men and women of real sterling piety, whose ex- ample and. prayers are the salvatiou of the place. i A WONDERFUL PROCESSII)N. Last Saturday was a memnrable day throughout the 'United States, as the last day for voluntary bankrupts. There was everywhere a tremendousrush to the bankrupt courts to secure this last - ehance of commercial reconstructide. Six hundred meu iu Chicago last week formed the granct procession into the . opeu chaem of voluntary bankruptcy, where they were to be relieved of their level re ponsibility and out of which then are to be hooked, uuencumbered witli finaucial burdens. Traders, nrokers, speculators, doctors, and even clergymen were sanung the number, They were on the Whole rather a jolly and I was going to say myself, than quotatiors from the dead. If one thous- and newspapers, including. the Globe, had a taste of James Goldie's experience in milling for the last year, they would soon change their free trade tune. . Yours, kc., JAMES PRINGLE.
