FAIR AND CATTLE SHOW IN PORT
ROYAL, VIRGINIA.

The first cattle show and agricultural fair,
held by the Rappahannock river society, was
held in Port Royal, Virginia, on the 10th and
llth instants. From the list of articles con-
tanned in the Fredericksburg Herald of last
evening, it seems that premium was offered
for almost every conceivable product of agri-
cultural and mechanical industry. The exhi-
bition is said to have been quite successful.
Col. Edward T. Taylor Of King George county,
was reelected president. That distinguished
and veteran farmer Edmund Rufhn, esq, was
present.
The address was delivered by Hon. Willough-
by Newton, who is distinguished as well in ag-
riculture as in politics. Of his address the
Herald says: ,@
"The address of Mr.. Newton was delivered
on the show ground at Port Royal, on Friday.
Not less than two thousand persons listened
with the most marked attention. 1t was re-
plete with facts of interest and portrayed the
character of men, who, though numbered with
the dead yet live in the hearts and affections Of
grateful people. Tributes werepaid to former
agriculturists of Virginia; Washington, Madi-
son, Munroe, to Taylor of Carolina, Currie Of
Lancaster, Garnett of Essex, and others, who
devoted their time, and gave of their stores Of
information in order to advance and elevate
agriculture to its true dignity. Mr., NJ, in a
reference, paid one Of the handsomest tributes
we have yet seen, to the farmer of Marshfeld,
Webster
"The society has ordered one thousand copies
of the address to be printed, which precludes
the necessity of even partial review. 1t was
chaste, powerful, eloquent.

Wisconsin Election.

Telegraphic reports from Wisconsin repre-
sent that the democrats have elected their State
ticket by q large majority. Such an event was
to have been expected in that decidedly demo
cratic State. The following are the officers
elect
William A. Barstow, governor.
James I. Lewis, lieutenant governor.
Alexander 7. Gray, secretary of state.
George b. Smith, attorney general.
Edward IT, Jansen, State treasurer.
H.A, Wright, superintendent of public in.
structon.
A. w. Starke, State prison commissioner.
William nj. Dennis, bank comptroller.
The Milwaukee Sentinel states that so frr MS
that city was concerned there was "but one
issue thought of or talked of" and that was the
"iqnor law" The vote in Milwaukee on that
question was, in favor Of prohihitory law s97,

political equals. They do not desire such a
state of things brought about. They want the
chosen few pampered, fed, indulged, and the
mighty many 10 be their "hewers Of wood and
their drawers of water.n
As the light Of the sun shines on all, sodo we
desire to see the light of education shining
on all. As all breathe the same air, so
do We desire to see all exercising the same
political powers, We have passed the savage
state-we have passed the patriarchal state
we have emerged long since from the dark ages
we are in the nineteenth century-we are in
a free country-and what we most desire to see
is a general diffusion of acknowledge, that we may
direct Alright the destinies of our country, and
set a bright example to other and less favored
people.
