deavoring, in the nineteenth century, to play
the game which so nearly ruined the Papacy
under Gregory VII. in the eleventh. A sue
cessful assertion of such pretensions could not
but be followed by the subjugation Of Greece,
and a very alarming encroachmcnt upon
Austria. If the example were followed by
other great powers, the whole world would
soon be embroiled in warfare; and peace could
only be secured by the establishment of sepa-
rate religion for each particular nation.
1t has not come to that yet. Russia's de-
mands have been firmly denied; and the time
has come for the Gar to procure. by more
decided attitude the satisfaction he has vainly
attempted to obtain by pacific means" One
might almost imagine that In view of this en-
phatic threat recourse to hostlites was in
evitable. In the present day, however, diplo-
matte notes always say more than they mean;
and we may well credit the rumor that Austria
will eventually succeed in arbitrating between
the antagonists. though up to the present time
her mediation has not been accepted. Russia
has not yet retractcd but cotton has risen, and
we place more faith in this symptom than in all
the diplomatic notes in the world.

Cedar County Agricultural So
ciety,

We herewith present our readers with Re-
port Of the prizes awarded at the first County
Fair held in .sOid CEDAR
All who were present-and they numbered
goo!dy ,multitude--appeared highly sratitied
and pleased at the success Of the experiment,
and seemed earnest in their wishes for cc2-
tinuance of the same ssnany time and oft"
There isno donbt but that the prosperity of
the farming community is tie main source, the
T" life blood as it were, of our snccess; and
all such jut.cions wars and means that can pro-
perlv be devised to sustain and cherish tina.
prosperity should be encouraged. With that
end, the Cedar County Agricultural Society
was formed and it behoves all citizens, yheth-
er farmers. mechanics, merchants, or men Of
leisure, to lend helping hand ia aid of the en-.
| terprise.
! When the first Fair was announced, many
doubted Ifs success, and were spprehensise tina
enough interest could not be awakened in III,

and but mcagre list of articles brought for
