☞ HANDSOME SHIRTS.—The Victory Base Ball Club have just donned their uniform shirt. It is of Salisbury flannel, a pink and white plaid, and is decidedly the finest specimen of a cricket, base ball or boating shirt that has been seen in Troy.—Messrs. H. H. Hodgman & Co., No. 338 River street, the well-known artists of that line, are the “builders” of the shirts, and are entitled to a great deal of credit. In their new “rig,” the Victory boys will be complete, and will present a picturesque appearance on their matches.

Bardwell’s store, No. 1 Troy House, may be seen the trophies won by the Victory Base Ball Club during the past year, in the form of balls presented by their vanquished opponents.

INDUSTRIAL EXHIBITION.

One of the principal objects of the Industrial Exhibition, viz:—the encouragement of our manufactures and mechanics would not be subserved, without the publication of a complete list of the exhibitors, whose contributions lent to the occasion so much of its success. It is with pleasure, therefore, that we give place to the report of the committee
On Manufactures.

[…]
It is quite possible that in the following list, names of exhibitors and their articles have been omitted. If so, the Committee will take pleasure in making corrections at the close of the report.
