THE CATTLE SHOW AND FAIR.

For P0TtieUlGvs in regard to the Fair and Cattle Show, which took place in this village last week, we refer readers to the Reports of the differ ent Committees. We remark, generally, that the display in some respects exceeded that of former years, while perhaps in others it fell short and the number ofspectators was, we are assured laEg- CT than on any similar occasion for several prece- ding years Great interest was manifested in every thing connected with the exhibition of stock, veg etabes, fruit, articles of domestic and general man. ufacture, Sc. The weather was unusually fine, and all present seemed much gratifed with the va rious proceedings and exhibitions of the two suc- cessive days.

ON HORSES AND SWINE.

The Committee to whom was assigned the duty of examining and deciding upon the relative merits ot the several Horses entered for premium, having attended to that duty, respectfully report:
 That there were but two Stud Horses presented, of which, we have awarded to Nelson H. North the 1st premium of $4.O0.
 There were five Brood Mares entered, one of which was not presented. We award to Lorain Thrall tffe 1st premium, $500; to David Lucas, the 2d do. $2.OO.

 The display of Stud Horses was not such as was expected by your Committee, although we consd- CT the horse presented by MT. North valuable &C., qu sition 10 the county
 The Committee cannot pass unnoticed a fine three year old Colt shown by Mir. Webster of Bur lngton (not in this county,) one which could not be surpassed if equalled by any in the county. We think the thanks of the Society are due to Mr. ] Webster.
