Fair," held at Camden *en the 20th instant, the following resolution was adopted Bemired, That the Committee on Correspondence in %New .Jersey be appointed, und requested to ant a9an lnecutive Committee of Ladies, to take charge of the in lerests of. New Jersey at the Great Central Fair, and that ' , they be requested to add to this committee the names of .11 suitable number of Ladies residing in Now Jersey. The committee, thus formed, beg to lay. before the 'people of New Jersey the folio wing suggestions, which limy tend to advance and simplify their arrangerrldffts Vith regard to the Fair. New Jersey having, its it now appears, declined to take the charge and responsibility or that portion of the /mild iug assigned to her by the. Committee on Arrange :meats in Philadelphia,and preferring to have a separate division assigned to her in each department of the Fair, to which •he is prepared to contribute, it only remains for us now to try to conform to this view as well as we can, at the late hour in which the change has been de termined upon. For the purpose of securing as much order as possible under the eircumstances, we invite the immediate co. operation,of the people of ffew Jersey, and their atten tion to the following suggestions; All •articles of - Fancy Work to bn sent to Mrs. 11PHRALK CLA.RN, chairman of that Committee, who will assign to them a separate portion of her Depart- Inent ; or, If that is full, a space as neat' it as possible. : All-articles of Refreshment to he forwarded to MISS NARY McHENRY, chairman of. the Committee on Re ateurant. All confrlbu thins from the Public Schools will be di •Te cted to Mr. EDWARD Sill PPEN, and those from Pri vate Schools to Mrs. I'. M. CLAPP, chairman of the re ppecti vs committees. All other contributions will be sent to the chairman of the department to which they iu kind belong, with a similar understanding with regard to their particular assignment to New Jersey.. Every box or package to be distinctly labelloi "NEW JERSEY." and the articles to he marked at their esti ;Dated value, If thisdirection is not observed inevitable confusion will ensue. As the New Jersey tables will be waited .on by ladies from that State, all who wish to uudertake this duty, will please forward their names and resi dences no 60011 as possible to the chairman of this ooin- Inittoe. • , This had better be done in a list from each neighbor hood. The ladies will serve at the tables in rotation, 'wearing a uniform of black skirt and white waist, or black dress only. The price of Season Tickets for Members of Committees and their Aids is ($3) three dollars. As the Fair is to be opened on the 7th of June, prompt action is absolutely necessary. We are ready now to receive the contributions; and shalt be glad to co-ope rate with the contributors in carrying out their wishes and ai raugements in any way we can.

The scenes aro, for the most part, laid at' the South; and the many fine pie lures of its sunny landscapes, with which the book abounds, relieve the intense Interest of the story. Most of the ohs-meters arc drawn with groat cleverness, and a few in such clear ou ti i nos that we feel assured we have met them in real life. The hero and heroine, Mr. 'ford and Ethel Linton; are flue characters. Both pos sess the noblest qualities of mind and heart, and the reader will be in hive with them from the first.

To this choice Catechism Dr: Bethune has given his noble poly rs in their selected order.
