The matter of Sunday opening is still unsettled, but before this letter can reach you, the Courts will have passed upon it finally, The arguments on the suit brought by the U.S. Government, to enjoin the Fair against opening on Sunday, wore offered before three justices of the U.S. District Court, and a decision was promised by them to be' given next Thursday, the 8th. Tt is impossible for any one to anticipate what the result will be. Phe local sentiment is in favour of opening, the outside of closing. The Fairhasbeen open two Sundays, and the attendance on each of those days has been much less than the advocates of Sunday opening expected, and they are much disappointed in the result of what they thought would be a great and visible argument in their favour. The decision is awaited with much interest.
