TUESDAY, JUNE 14, 18G4,
THE GREIiT CENTRAL FAIR,
THE CROWD STILL INCREASES.
THE PEOPIE D)ST IN ADMIRATION.
IN OUB CITY.
THE CATHEDRAL OF ST: PETKH AND ST. PAUL.
Tko more we perambulate the Fair the more wo
jire inclined to. the opinion that It is a world within
tho world, containing a moving, busy throng, lord
liness : and boauty. Tho crowd of visitors was very
Large during the day, and among them were many
strangers, some of whom wore lost in admiration of.
the pretty displays, the patriotic devices,"and the
admirable arrangement by;which the wholtrinsti
tution is< ' conducted. The visitors seemed toknow
that to attend the Fair meant, in so many wordSj
spend iffonoy, and from the general manner in ■
whioii they put.tho medium, into
must have pretty. jwjpU supplied tkemsoives with
P argent before starting.,, ; ...
Thousands of tkfngs were purchased simply,
as mementos of thelgreat Fair, medals ‘and< tiny,
horse-shoes changed hahoh rapidly, and the young
ladies selling them soon found a snperabundiyice of
postage currency on hand. , .
'^During 'the'day manyartides were lost, and being •
taken to the police office, were restored to tho
owners. Tost children were also restored to parents
or guardians, as witl.be scon In The Press report to
day. TVe might also state in a general way that
new. contributions’are being- received; dg,ily, and
more are expected for some time to come. Some
valuable relics, once owned by General Washington £
and exhibited at the great . Sanitary Fair at St; 1 -
Louis, arc expected to arrlve’About-thelatfcerpart
of the week. These are above value; They will be
in the apartment appropriated to the State ofßola
ware. The Bohemian glass-blowers, a wealthy
family, have kindly consented toblowfor two weeks,
and(now may be seen pursuing their pleasing avo
.cation, and selling such things as they make for the'
benefit of tho Sanitary Commission, The glass
steam engine Monitor, in full working order, is an'
object of more than; ordinary attraction. With
these few preliminaries we beg leave to introduce
once more a notice of the beautiful album designed
as a present to
XfTSS OHAHLOTTIS CUBHiTAIf,
This album cost $1,500, and 13 the gift of artists of
Boston, New York, and Philadelphia. It may be
seen on the corner of the table appropriated to the
Musical Department, on Union avenue, just westof
the main flag-staff. The pictures in ihiß beautiful
work of art are perfect gems, and well worth close
examination.
SCHWARTZ PUNCH, ETC.
■ tfn the importation table, corner of Union , and
Horticultural avenues, will be found quite a supply of
Schwarts punch, and an array of Japanese, articles.
These things were sent from San Francisco by the
congregation of the late bßcy.-T, Starr The
Japanese cariosities wiliattraot attention. Any of
them are worthy as a memento of the great Fair.
Also, there will be found on the Importation table,
the new . nonsense: book, a publication sold for
twenty-five cents, which Is full of oddities, funny
sayings, and grotesque pictures.. Some of them are
very clever hits at the foibles of the day.
A VILLAGE SCHOOL.
On the end of the table devoted to the Hospital.
Department will be found a model of a village
school. This attracts the universal attcntion.of the
children, and . older persons may linger awhile in
admiration, and perhaps the scene before them may
bring to mind some long-lost reminiscences in
the history of their own lives. It was deeidedly
amusing to hear the expressions made by the juve
nile .spectators. The model , represents the aged
school-mistress teaching the scholar the alphabet.
The benches. are all very well arranged, and while
most of the scholars are apparently intent on learn
ing their lessons, one, more mischievous than the
: others, has. just inserted a pin hook in the apron, or
something else, of another scholar in a class learn
ing arithmetic. ; A string being attached to the pin
hook enables the mischief-maker to give a je'rk, and
thus, set the school In an uproar. The dunce has a
position on a prominent stool.. The bid clock marks
the time near “1,” and some of tile-scholars are
. bvidentiy hungry, ..A little boy is holding the head
of aTlttle givl over a basin, and appears to be engaged
in the laudable. occupation of washing her face.

‘The main” flag-staff, for a distance of thlrty_ or
fortyfeet above the surface of-the 1 floor, has been
greatly beautified. It now represents a splendid
stand of arms, consisting of muskets,' swords,
pistols, helmets, battle-axes, and, above all, a num
ber of silk American flags, thus-giving animation;
and patriotism to the whole scene. These articles
are very neatly arranged around the staff, and the*
imposing display was the subject of many a. praise
worthy remark yesterday.
. THE STATE OFijEDAWAM,, ....
bin thewnstem nave, running: southfrom Union.,
avenue, bn Eighteenth street, may. be found the dis-"
plays of rich and'costly goods and relics, curiosities
and other things,{which go to make the sum total,
that maybe' considered. the. offerings of the loyal,
people of the little State of Delaware. The decora-,
tions differ from those of most of the other naves.
At the entrance from-" Union avenue the visitor
passes under a beautiful banopy or white , and blue
Stripes, spreading, farMikeffrom *a common-centre.
< A .splendid six light chandelier hangs from the
crown of the canopy. This is flanked on both’sides
. by. a couple of cut-gass chandeliers. Under this
canopy there'are a number of fine portraits ofnaval
and ’military officers and distinguished civilians,
, whom the State of Delaware can claim as honored;
sons. Also, articles, it may be said, of virtu. Some'
of these specimensare'very fine. On atable, not far
distant, is a splendid silver pitcher, open for con
tributions. The inscription upon its front informs
us of its destination. It say3,Presented by the

A Nbw Brotherhood Association in tub An-
with all Its sad and earnest,realities, deve
lops some of the finest traits of our humanity.
"War itself establishes a grand brotherhood. This
filial feeling is everywhere evident, although failing
an-organlzed expression. lam lod to those observa
tions from tho recent organization in the fith Dorps
Of a society called tho “Ben Schars.” The deriva
tion of the name lam unable to give. The object of
the organization, as explained to mo, Is to look out
for one interest in tho inarch, in the bivou
ac, and in battle. There are manifold ways of doings
this, as, for Instance, if ono is sick, to see that he
lacks no want of attention j if one wants money, to
see that lie has it; if one is wounded, tO-lobk to his*
immediate core; and, if one is killed'in bat
tle. to sco, if it is impossible to forward the
body home, that he is buried as becomes a soldier, to
have a record made of his burial placo. ami his ef
fects preserved and transmitted to his friends.. The
benefits arising from such an association are not
temporary, when this war is over, through its
agency friends and widows and orphaned children
can-possess themselves of the remains of loved ones
buried on these far-away battle-fields, And give
them a final resting place in tho old church-yard
and family burial places.at home, to whose weeping
willows and wild flowers and waving cypresses tholr
dying thoughts perhaps reverted amidst the crush
nnd carnage of battle, with a longing hope to be
buried there at last. Scorcsare joining the associa
tion every day. Captain George H.-Weir i 3 tho
president of the association.—Cor. N. Y. Herald. .
A Southkrk Dai>y Tai.ks.—We have, by the
way; had recently a tolerable substitute for a visit
to Bicliraondj in a conversation with a. Southern
lady of a somewhat exuberant Imagination, but
with an evident intention to convey a correct im-
Efesslon. I will repeat her language as hear as may
o. She said: "I went tollichmond to make my
spring purchases; 1 my servant with me, who
carried my money for me in a basket. My friends
told me 1 could bring'back my purchases in the
samo basket. I went to Richmond, expecting to
find half of the stores closed, with nothing to eofHn
the rest of thorn. But how'surpriseil I was when I
found tho stores all full.of goods, with young clerks
behind the counters, doing a thriving business.' I
could buy anything I wanted, from a cooking-stovo
to a pair of kid gloves. I bought clogant sheetings
-for $lO a yard, and money is of no account, for peo
ple who never had 60 cents before tho war have now
their thousands. I purchased everything that I
wanted. I shouldn’t have known but 1 had beon to
market in Baltimore or New York.” The lady con
fined in this garrulous strain for some time; but I
have had opportunity several times to verify to some
extent the representation which she made of. tho
state of.things in Richmond.—Tn&uue,
Poking Fcx at thb Rkkels.—Our men have
singular amusements whilo at their labor! Ham
let wondered that the grave-diggers sang at their
work, and would be more surprised to witness
the sports with which the soldiers amuse them
selves while employed in a similar
Our lines were so near to the enemy that wc could
hear their voices distinctly. . Not a man dared to
raise his-head above the works. -.At such alime, by
way of diversion, our troops devoted themselves .to
trining with the excitability of the enemy’s'pickets,
by getting.up a sham assault. A cry was raised,
muSkets rattled, and a shout "Steady in the centre,”
" Guide right,” “ Charge,” created, no doubt, great
perturbation in tho enemy’s ranks. When this sport
was exhausted so as to be no longer available, tho
accuracy and vigilance of the enemy J s sharpshooters
was unfeelingly tampered with by many of our men,
who, fastening their hats upon their bayonets,
raised thenf cautiously above their works,, as if
about to look over, when a bullet from an enemy’s
rifleman passing through the empty hat; justified a
most hearty laugh on our side.— Tribwie.
Nkgro Guards, —There is a service in which our,
negro-troops seem: most peculiarly serviceable, and ‘
most fittingly employed. It is when guarding prison
ers captured from tho enemy.V ; Then their vigilance
and faithfulness, and the,"heartiness with which
they perform their duties, appear most conspicuous.
How . shouid you like to sec a tall, lank, straight
haired Carolinian, wearing a cockney hat, the brim
pinned up on one side, and ornamented with a rude
cflort to imitate in needlework the palmetto or
South. Carolina cabbage tree, marching along under:
guard of thj*ee blacks, who' occasionally accelerate
is reluctant pace with such incentives as—“ March
along dar, massa—no straggling to de rear—close
up dar, sari”: It is one oftno most amusing specta
cles which -we have the pleasure of witnessing in the
army.. The situation is singularly suggesstivc of
the propriety and fitness of things.— lbid. T
Gxw. Steels.—The Texan rebels have at last suc
ceeded in making a song of Gen. Steele, and hero
it is:
* ‘ Gen.Fretisrick SUele comes stealing along,
Stealing our hogs and stealing our eoru, ;
• Steailug our sheep and stealing our co
: And stealine ihe steel from oif onrplows.

The blighting effect* oh veiy cold steel; ’’
Prospects ov the Campaign. —Within a very
short time the rebels will be compelled to choose be
. tween two things: They may march with their mala
army westward or southward, leaving an ordinary
garrison, or rio garrison at all, in Bichmond, and in
either case expecting the city to fall into our hands
without long delay; or they.may make it fche““ last
ditch,” concentrate there all they have, and stake
the Confederacy upon the issue, y
, I don’t think Grant cares which course they may
adopt. If the former, he wins a great victory,
moral and-material, say by the Fourth of July L and
he will have all the fair to push them to: the Gulf.
If the latter, it may require several months longer
to “ take Kichanond.” But at length taking it,
and all that is in it, as he. surely would, the" whole
rebel concern tumbles in one big crash. j-
As to the comparative losses:
As the rule is, that the general prosecuting an
offensive campaign suffers more than his enemy, un
less, winning victories, he compensates his excess of
killed and wounded by an excess of prisoners taken.
But while this campaign has been boldly, even
daringly, offensive, It has been so conducted that in
nearly every collision the enemy has been obliged to
become the attacking party. So at tho Wilderness,
where Lee attacked, and where; when. he would no
longer attack, Grant le/i him. so on the P 6. So. on
on the Tolopotomy. Grant

During General Birney’s recent raid through'
Florida, a bright little girl was found alone at one;
house, her parents .having: skedaddled. She was
rather non-committal, for she did-not know whether
the troojjs were Union or rebel. Two fine dogs made
their appearance while a conversation was being
held with the-ehlld, and she Informed one of her
questioners that thoir names were Gilmore and
Beauregard. “ AVhieh is the best dogl” aStod a
■bystander.: “I don’t know,” Said she;“they’re
both mighty smart dog?; but they’ll either of ’em
suck eggs if you don’t watch ’em.” /. The troops left
without ascertainiug whether the * family, of which

' Cautiox /op tixk PuKson EiiPßßor..—A Paris
letter-writer tells tho following: ;
1 was in a circle, a few days back, composed of
both native French,'and some newly-arrived Pari
sians. At Inst the conversation turned upon tho
Emperor, and the late arrivals wore full ormarvo
lons stories upon the. Emperor’s life. One ‘‘yarn ”
ran as follows: A beautiful young Italian girl was
requested to-niakehioi a drink, which she dirt; As
if accidentally, injrcceiving the goblet, he contrived
to drop in a small silver knife with which he had
been toying as ho sat. The lcnlfe almost immedi
ately turned black from the presence of some poison
which the Italian : had dropped into the beverage,:
probably as a.“flavor.” She was quiofcly sent back
to the Orlcanist tribe, whence she came, disgraced.
: Another damsel offered Napoleon the larger piece
of an opple,which she out before his eyes, and while
in conversation with him. (She was Frenchynnd a
'privileged' member of the imperial .household.)
with true politeness lie requested an exchange, he
to oat the smaller piece, and she the other.. The
lady demurred; she could not eat so much, .lie
seized both pieces* and bowingly retired. Next day,
tholady consented to i‘‘waste her sweotness.on the
desert air ” of a convent, whore she can reflect that
the very first trouble which r aroso in the world, in
the year one, came from Evo offering Adam an ap
pie. not fit for his mastication at that time.

The general toue'of the stock market was better yes*
terday, and sellers were less disposed to make conces
sions. Gold opened. at 193%, and was firmly held through
out the day; at noon it reached 196, at 3 o'clock 197%,
and closed at 198. The reaction upon Saturday in the
goldmarket was supposed to be caused by a report, ap
parently well grounded, that the Secretary of the Trea
sury had received proposals from foreign capitalists to
take large quantities of our Government lean. It is now
stated that that report is not true, and the gold bulls
have once more something which they can put to elec
tive use in pushing forward their schemes of personal
aggrandtaement. Government securities are rather

to produce a radical change in the whole banking sya- •

all tho banks organized does not exceed three hundred.

-The denominations of tho notes are .to be ones, twos,
