Book excerpt: Excerpt from Metropolitan Fair, in Aid of the United States Sanitary Commission, 1864 Another effect of this Fair will be the increase of the material prosperity of the city at a time when the rigors of the season make the need of money among all classes unusually great - the well-to-do for the sake of their poorer neighbors, if not for themselves. It was found by all the retail dealers in Boston, no less than by the omni bus and railway companies, and all those whose business depends, in part, upon a floating population, that their gains had rarely or never been so great as during the recent great Fair in that city.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Record of the Metropolitan Fair: In Aid of the United States Sanitary Commission, Held at New York, in April, 1864 IN the Autumn of 1863 it came to be felt that no more effectual way of raising money for the needs of the Sanitary Commission could be devised than by holding Fairs. Chicago by this means was enabled to give sixty thousand dollars at once to the bene cent fund which previously had been supplied by small con tributions. Not that the aggregate of contributions was small; the streams of benevolence that owed into the common reservoir of the Sanitary Commission were countless and never dry, but they were mere rills when compared with this Chicago ood of bounty. So it was not long before Boston, a city which readily catches a new idea, followed with another bazaar, and from it realized one hundred and forty thousand dollars. The success of the new idea, one grand gift in place of numberless small ones, was now, of course, fully estab lished. The name Sanitary Fair was coined, and applied to each of that splendid series of bazaars, whose number and magnificence made a memorable feature of the winter of 1863 - 4 in the loyal North.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Metropolitan Fair: In Aid of the United States Sanitary Commission A Metropolitan Fair is to be held in the metropolitan city of New York, opening on the 28th of March, 1864, for the relief of the sick and wounded of the National Army. It is designed to be something much larger than a Fair, in the modern acceptation of that term. Every branch of agriculture, trade, industry and art will be invited to contribute its choicest and costliest products for exhibition and sale. Musical and Dramatic artists will be invited to aid the common cause with their talent and genius. All the material resources of the great City of New York, and of the region directly tributary to it, are to be invoked. The farmers of New York, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, New Jersey, and the adjacent States, will send in specimens of their finest stock; our factories will contribute locomotives, pianos, sewing machines, steam ploughs, and all the mechanical products of Northern intelligence and industry, in aid of the great cause of National unity. Any class that can give anything, or produce anything that will furnish the means of succoring our National camps and hospitals, will make itself tributary to a great "National Exposition," for purposes not of mere ostentation, but of substantial aid to the country. Two Committees - one of ladies and another of gentlemen - have been appointed to carry out this undertaking.
