HORSE AND OX SHOEING,
The committee cannot let this important
iraiich of Mechanics pass without a notice.—
The competition was spirited, and the speci

The show grounds were densely thronged
.hroughout the fair. A heavy rain which fell
in the afternoon of the first day, caused con
siderable inconvenience to exhibitors. The
