PHILADELPHIA, MONDAY, JUNE 13, 1864. MONDAY, JUNE 13, 1864, THE GREAT SANITARY FAIR, THK CHY IS STILL THEY COME. THE SUCCESS ESTABLISHED. The Groat Central Fair was again crowded on Saturday, and every visitor who could approbate beauty, skill, and patriotism was dolightod aftd In structed. K may bo truly said, that where hundreds wero expected .thousands have responded, and thus ; the success Is more complete than its most sanguine; friends expected. In addition to the adult visitors, a number of the scholars of our public schools vlsltod the Fair on Saturday, In sections. Here was pre sented a viyid scene or tho happy hours of childhood, when thosun oflifo shone brightly in the morning of existence. Ho must havo lived in vain who could not look upon such a beautiful picture, at such a time, in such a place, without feeling a glow of gratification. The scholars, as a general thing, were exceedingly well-behaved. There was no rude ness manifested by any of ithetu,.which speaks well for the training they have received in our public schools. It was not surprising that In so largo a place as the Fair* buildings, with its rectangular, circular, and diagonal passage-ways, that children would got astray from thoir parents or guardians. It was, therefore, necessary to perfect the system of ar rangements, to make the comfort and happiness of the visitors, especially with children, more cdmpleto, to appropriate quarters for lostchildrcn. . Thbpolice office was at once selected as the most suitable quarters, being located near the centre door of exit on Eighteenth street, east end of Union avenue.

NEW JERSEY AVENUE, It seems to have long been a domesticated-maxim that the four staple productions of the State of New Jcrseyfcconsisfc of “ pretty girls, -watermelons, canto lopes, and sweet potatoes. s ’ If anybody has doubts as to the former, they will be dispelled, like mist before the morning sun, by visiting the avenue ap propriated to our sister State. It is the northern section from Union avenue, on Eighteenth street, The interior of this beautiful and patriotic wing or nave is decidedly attractive and meritorious. Every thing is arrarfged with artistic taste and skill j the displays are magnificent, and among them are arti cles of,rare value, connecting the present with past ages. The festooning or groupingof the national emblem presents a picture upon which the patriotic eye may well linger. Almost any person; might suppose, without any great stretch of the iaiagiha-* nation, that New Jersey avenue is the resting place of the Goddess of Liberty. "Wo observe, among the variety of things exhi bited, a large number of the battle-torn flags of the ! New Jersey regiments, which are profusely or ela borately arranged to directly meet the least ob servant eye. ;¥c learri that General G. M. Robeson, J. H. Stevens of Camden, Judge Carpenter, and A; t G. Cattcll, have been very active in the patriotic;; work of collecting principal articles f#r the Fair. : These gentlemen, with a full corps of assistants, aro’- .yet busily, engaged in. continuing their efforts for the credit of the State of New Jersey, and are do-; tonuined that it shall not be behind any in devotion to the .humane cause for which the Sanitary Com mission was organized. Burlington, Trenf. ton, Cumberland, Gloucester,' Salem; West Jersey, and other parts of? the great Sandy State* have sent? .unlimited supplies of . fancy goods, hooks, toys,* inte-. resting curiosities, arms and trophies, arts and sci ence, birds, , vases of flowers, fruit, Ac;, model of? “ Uncle. Abe’s old Kentucky home, 5 *- pyramids of flowers, children’s clothing, and miscellaneous arti cles generally, all oi which must bo seen to be ap preciated. . ; - We shall speak'of Delaware to-morrow. JFOT7K, COMPOSITION'S. There are fourartistic compositions which form a portion of the decorations in Union avenue. They are so skilfully arranged, so appropriate, and en tirely patriotic, that; they, deserve-special mention, and admiration. To describe one is all that isnecessary, excepting, perhaps, thateaohof the four compositions contains a different portrait, 1 The four portraits are.excellent oil paintings, lifo s size, of. •President Lincoln, ex-President Monroe, General Z. Taylor, and General Scott. • : The portrait is. in theeen tr eand ilius forms fcho . ground-work,' or starting point from which the va rious materials used in the- composition; diverge. These materials consist of alUheparaphemaliaiinci dent to war, Above the-pbrtraittho flag-staffs cross each other, the flags 4 being- artistically arranged in festoons 5 then from each sidevthere project, in patri otic luxurlousness, five national-emblems, the fields ;of which are so adjusted, one above the other, as to present a beautiful pyramid of stars ; the rod anti white 1 stripes are nicely folded so as to give a perfect finish to the picture. The entire. base of,thia beautiful illustration of the accoutrements fofjl war consists ol spears, axes, hooks, artillery, ahd'Tinfantry.generally, cavalry, and everything else 5 which makes up the sum-of all the :ma». rial : ]asbd Jin warfare. The sharp-shooter - is r not forgotten; the sapper and miner is ropro- r sented’j- the mounted rifleman is portrayed; six-*;: shooters'! oje used;, to connect the grand grouping, the interlacing ofthC work as to complete the design. It is at once 'poetical in conception, artistic In general arrange ■ment,hnd attractive to the lovers ortho beautiful. Gentlemen who can appreciate a master-piece of art. ; science, and poetical beauty combined, have expressed a determination to have the compositions photographed, and thus the people will have the shadow, alter the original shall have been num bered with the things .that were. In point of size each of the compositions is about 24 feet by 14 feet. The workmanship was performed by Mr. William A. Blanchard and Mr. F. Pierpenbrins.

Whatever may be said of- his character, or of bis administration of the Govern ment, it4s not to be denied that he enjoys the favor and confidence of the:people. ln their conviction of his complete integrity, of his homely good sense and honesty of purpose, they,overlook.*iis defects, they pardon his mistakes; they are-prone to forgive even his occasional lapses into serious and dangerous abuses oJumwer. It wouErbo easy to find among our distinguished men, they say, persons who are capable of a more comprehensive, consistent, and dignified statesman ship than Sir. Lincoln; there are those who possess more vigorous and rapid executive abilities; there are those who have a quickehporception.of tho real character and interests of the hour, A nobler ideal of its duties, a more refined discernment and a more heroic courage; and who more, truly, fulfil the old traditional notions or leadership among men; but there are few or none who reflect more elosely the average intelligence and average virtue of the Ame rican people, or who are likely to maintain a stric ter fidelity to the great general objects they have in view in the prosecution of this war* 123 The Convention did fchovwork'laid out for it. ■ * * ■*• There was a man once who was - so fre quently chosen to office by the Legislature of Con necticut, that it Is said the clerk o£ the House was accustomed to call the vote as'follows; “Gentlemen will please step up to the clerk’s desk and deposit their votes for Samuel Wyllls for Secretary of State.” The Baltimore Convention was managed in much the some way. - Mr. Lincoln, in effect,'has renominated himself.

Mr. Lincoln has served the country faifchfally and well, through a period of trial more distressing than ever foil to the lot oi any President. He is fairly entltlcd to the reward of a second term, and the people arc determined to give it to him. The Boston Courier, Democrat. We do not wonder at their nomination of Abraham Lincoln. They were too cowardly to do otherwise; and positively he, take him as he is,“honest Abe.” who might have been honest enough as a rail-split ter, or m any appropriate sphere, but who has been the very typo of. anything but that as President of the United States, was their only resort. The Washington Republican. These candidates are placed upon a well defined platform of principles. It is progressive. Besides being thoroughly anti-slavery, it defines, in lan guage unmistakable; the * true sentiments of the American people, with regard to the aggressive po licy of European power upon 'this continent. In brief, the platform pronounces the eternal doom of human slavery in the United States, and points un erringly to the final establishment of Republican in- Ctitulions upon every inch of the American conti nent. The Chisago Trilmne. The nomination of Mr. Lincoln, by tlio National or Union partv, is the expression of the substantially unanimous voice of the entire people of the United States, so far sis they favor the preservation of the; Union and the suppression of the rebellion.

The Pittsburg Dispatch- The Republican Union Convention, in nominating Abraham Lincoln for re-election, simply gave ex pression to that popular feeling which will certainly sweep the loyal States of the -North in his favor in the November, election. The Cincinnati Commercial. After the adoption of a platform, which will be found in our Associated Press despatches, President Lincoln was nominated for re-election. The Times, Bangor, Ste. There is no question for a moment that the sion orthe National Union Convention at Baltimore yesterday, renominating President Lincoln for an other term, is the simple reflex of the opinions and wishes of the great body of the loyal American pco >le. There Is no man in civil life in this country, o-day, who is so universally, a favorite with the masses, the “ plain people,” as “Honest Abe Lin coln.”’ ■ ■ ■ The Lewiston (BfoJ Journal. - The Union ticket agreed upon with such unanimi ty at Baltimore, promises to be one of the most pop ular ever before the people of this country. It is m fact a people’s ticket, for no one can have been- un observantof the fact that, the great mass of the common people of this country were calling for the renomination of Abraham Lincoln with a unanimi ty and a persistency which could not be ■ winked out ofsfght. The Erie (Pa.) Despatch. -The Baltimore Convention has done what it was apparent from the first that it would do, and what the sentiment of the people compelled it to do, in the nomination of Abraham Lincoln for President. Any other course—even a postponement of action— would have been a violation of the popular will, which has at last put itself in advance of the schemes of politicians, and taken the nomination from their bands, That the people will bo faithful to the obligation thus assumed, we have the best reasons for believing. The Scranton (Pa.) Republican. Just as every loyal man at the North hoped and expected: feared—but an event which the “Radical Conven tion” at Cleveland hoped to prevent—Abraham Lincoln was unanimously declared by the delegates of the Union Convention at Baltimore on Wednes day the choice of the people of the loyal States for the next Presidency; ana, for Yice President, the Convention nominated that noble patriot,' Andrew Johnson, of Tennessee. ' The Troy (N. Y.)Times. A change in the Chief Magistracy .would be Inju rious even if a better and-abler man could be chosen. But no matter how many other great and able men belong, to' the Union party, aha might be trusted with the helm of. State, there is no doubt that Mr, Lincoln is- of all our men the most popular, the most trusted, the most respected, the most beloved. ITbeTroy (N. Y.)Whig. We know of no public man who, in our opinion, would have come nearer to it than Mr. Lincoln has —and, considering the advantages oniis experience, we know of none who would be as likely to finish up the great work committed to his hands, in a manner to preserve the national life, and restore and re-in vigorate the national power. Wo say this in the full persuasion that the lessons of experience will not be lost on him, and that he will properly con sult and defer to that enlightened public opinion to Which he will owe his re-election. The Chester (P& ) Republican. We enter into the contest with tried aml approved men. and-the loyal people of the Union will ratify the choice of the Convention at the polls, in Novem ber next, by a majority unprecedented in the politi cal history of our country. . The Cincinnati Gazette. The hold which Mr. Lincoln has upon .the hearts of the jjeople is due to their belief in his sincere de termination to extinguish slavery. Although they may differ in opinion on the propriety and efficacy of his emancipation proclamation, and although they miay not see the results of that which appear, to him, yet the very radical extent of this measure, which at a word declared tlio abolition of slavery in ten States, is proof to the people of his purpose to destroy slavery by whatever means may be found necessary to accomplish that end. * ■ The Cleveland Leader. The. ticket nominated 'and the platform adopts! were both of the strongestand best material, and will command, the enthusiastic and whole-hearted support of every true and loyal citizen. For the manner in which the Convention has discharged the work entrusted to it; it deserves the thanks of the great Union party of the nation. The Chicago Times. The Convention had ceased to excite the public in terest long before it assembled. It ceased to excite the public Interest when the public became. Con scious tkat.it wouldbeapacked assemblage. What Interest could the public feel in it! It would be Mr. Lincoln’s automaton. He bad created it. It would be composed of Ms office-holders, his contractors, his dependants. It would simply meet to do that which he had appointed it to do. It would simply come together, register his decrees, and separate. Every body knew what those decrees were.. Everybody knew that he had decreed his own ronomination, and that the vote registering this decree would be a hol low form and mockery. \ The Toledo <O.) Blade. Probably no man—certainly none since the days of Monroe—has had such a hold on the confi dence of the people of all classes as has Mr. Lin coln.

L.

But ho was bom amongst .slaves, brought up with them, and tho influences and ; temptations to which ho was thus exposed woropoworfui and seduc tive enough to: counterbalance all the training of the schools and of association with freemen.

Oh, Sir. our Father, who looksjnot on the outward deed but judgeth the inmost heart, alone knows what made him do it; but He, knowing that none but Himself may judge the heart of man, has com manded us, “ Judge not, lest ye bo judged.” Sir,- are they sure who cry so steadily for his blood what , their own spirit is 1 Arc they sure that they are not in their vindictiveness . worse than he?

I moan tho smoothness of their skin and its delicate coloring. It is owing* to the constant rise of Jaredte “Email de Paris. ss Per haps you don’t know what the Email de Paris Is 11t is not paint, not powder, not ointment, but a most delicious preparation tkatgivesboth. the complexion and texture of polished ivory to the skin. It is used here by every woman who can; afford it, from the Empress herself down to tho pretty gmnfidre, who smites at you and ogles you-over the counter as she tries,on your gloyes in the Rue de la Pals. The lo retteSj who, after all, are the originators of all the fashions here, use this universally, the famous Ri golboclie, it is said, being the first who brought it into general notice. Jules Jared himself Is a sort of’ magnanimous Quasimodo, ugly and deformed, but with, a rare love of the beautiful, since he has mar ried a beautiful; wife, and given to humanity the Email do Paris. Jules bas made a fortune with the Email, and lives in a cb arming cottage omie (as the French call a villa) at’Sleudoh, receiving numerous friends (of his wife’s) and innumerable agents ofthe “Email de Paris” from all parts of the world. FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL, Subscriptions to the ten-foriy loan were comparatively small last week, and it is not. expected that the loan will be so freely taken until after the proposed sale of bonds is made,though it is quite probable that investors who may be successful bidders for the ISSI loan will do relatlvely.no better*.even if as well, as to subscribe for the ten* forties at par. The loans of the Government are undoubtedly the best form of investment, for the people’s money, and that the people so. regard it is shown by the eager subscriptions to every loan yet au thorized by Congress. There have been, .from time to time, reports circulated in commercial journals that Secretary Chase was considering proposals from foreign capitalists to take our loans. The foreign capitalists hare not yet come'forward,.nor should we be particularly anxious that they should. We can get along \jvithbnt their assistance. The past three years-proves this. At no period in our national struggle havo the people ofthe North shown a disposition to withhold their pecuniary means from the Government. In the gloomiest inter vals of the war, in the midst of disaster, and defeat the national treasury has been kept full aad flowing. Our soldiers have been paid; the vast expenses of the Go vernment promptly met, and a. readiness shown by all classes in subscribing to the popular loans that is unpre cedented in history. The national currency and the na tional bonds have been interwoven into the financial and social system in a way that cannot be overthrown, and so regulated as to excite the admiration of friend and foe. We have never urged the taking of the Govern ment loans on the ground of patriotism. That they hare not been taken on that ground ia shown by the fact that the Southern sympathizers are in many cases very large holders. 1 Our greenback currency oven in the South is at a largo premium, and though the authorities may in terdict its circulation, the people show, by their desire to obtain it, its great value as compared with their own. depreciated paper. . ~ «\ Gold had quite a serious tumble on Saturday.
