We have not been a stranger to crowds,
having often attended large conventions, gen
eral gatherings, and public meetings.. We
were present at the great political Conventions
at Baltimore; were present upon the occasions
Of Van Buren's and Harrson's Inauguration
at Washington; we were at the Musical Fund
Hallin Philadelphia, one evening. when Hunt
lectured on Temperance, and made one of a
literal throng al Calvert Hall in Baltimore,
when Cough spoke; and we have been al
Methodist meetings during revivals, and at
Camp Meetings on Sabbath morning. in fine
we have been with all kinds Of crowds. hut Of
all that we ever knew, that at the door Of the
National Fair in this city, on Monday nghl
was the greatest. That was emphatically a
perfect jam. Il did cap the climax" We
have tolerable memory and are sure that un
less i entirely fail US, we shall not forget this
crowd, should we live hundred years. We
pushed, and we plead, but no relief could we
get. We even dared 10 scold little, but this
was Intellectual But we proved the virtue Of
perseverance, and got in. We proved it again
by getting out again and enjoying hearty
laugh at some amusing incidents that occurred,
and being very grateful that we escaped un-
hurt, we solemnly pledge ourself, (Which we
consider one Of the best resolutions of our life,)
never again to throw ourself intentionally into
similar circumstances. At the same line we
would not have missed this treat for something
handsome; for we think we can safely boast
Of having been il as "psrfect jam" as was
ever known. Of course, many were with US,
and we congratulate them upon their happy
deliverance. and hope they all "breathe free
breath again."
