THE FAIR: OCTOBER 4TH.

AS the Farmers Festival approaches, We tax.
leave 10 suggest to our citizens the Propriety f
connecting degree of hospitality with the oc
caslon, towards those who attend it, 50 that the
interest of the day may become as generates pos-
sible in the county. of course there must be
limit to expectations we may indulge in regard
to this, but where suitable degree of acquaint-
ance obtains, the remembrance of it, at such N
OCCASION will conducc to that fricndliness If feel
ing so desirable to prevail, as well as 20 the
cess of these exhibitions, now, we hope, perma-
nenily established.
Our attention is turned particularly to this sub
ject by the consideration that the skill and ings-
nuity Of family industry are directly solicited to
participate in the excitements of the Fair. In
these the most universal competition might be
sustained, especiallyin articles of ladys work for
use or ornament, not being limited by the pariir-
ular occupations or facilities of the family out Of
doors. The products of the garden or orchard
are hardly thus limited, and are objects of inter
est also within doors as are those of hedairy and
of manufacturing skill. Aside from the results
of industry even, the relations of the day are ca.
pable of being extended to great variety Of sb-
jects of taste and social benefit. This more lib
eral character we hope in she progress of time It
may gradually assume. For this, we would en-
courage that harmony of feeling upon which such
a result must depend
