The Fair,

Alth0u"h the attendance of strangers
at the current exhibition of the Seaboard
Agricultural Society is not so large as last
year, it is still large enough to Justify us
in calling it successful. There are many
choice productions of manufacturing and
agricultural industry. in the various de-
partments, including excellent and valua-
Bile stock. The enthusiasm in hnsbandry
and in the raising of fine animals, which
cannot fail to be awakened by this gath
ering, and the kindly competition for ex-
celence in the several Arts and Trades re-
presented in it which must be engentler-
ed, will make All adequate and indeed.
ample compensation for the expense and
labor Of preparation.

Fatal Ahray.

WILLIAMsPoRT, Pa, Nov 9.-An
ailray occurred on Saturday, near Mont
gomery station, in this county which re-
suited in the death of a Mr.. Hill from
stab inflicted by Mr.: Bird with butchers
knife. 1t appears that Hill, and the
Oldest son of Mr.. Bird went to the house
of old Mr.. Bird, for the purpose of quar-
reling with him, when old Mr.. Bird, as
he alleges, killed him in self defence.
Bird gave himself up to the proper au-
'thorities and has been committed to the
county Jail to await an investigation.

Editorial Change.

We learn from the Petersburg MtetH-
qencer, that the Richmond EIcamiaer, for
four years past edited by r. w. HUGHES,
Esq, has passed under the control OF B..
NJ. De WRIT, VIM. LLOYD, and GEORGE
w. HARpwIoK. Mr.. DE WITT assumes
the general editorial responsibility He
is the original founder of the EG0mt1,e,',
and widely known as II ready, iorcible,
and well-informed writer. Mr.. HuGHEs,
during his rather limited editorial career,
has, however, made for himself a very en-
viable reputation for ability, scholarship
nd industry.

Miss. Maggie Mitchell.

We heartily Ielicitate the admirers OF
true dramatic genius and good taste, on
the esthetic feast in store for them next
week. Miss. MAGGIE MITCHELL, 'not
to know whom argues oneself unknown"
who has been captivating all hearts and
challenging everybody's admiration, on
her southern tour, and about whom our
Richmond neighbors are so infatuated that
the .tiremen call engines after her and
fast men" make her the namcsake of
their finest animals, is to appear on the
stage in Norfolk Oh next Wednesday
evening, to play limited engagement
Miss MITCHELL S acting, although always
appropriate and artistically faultless, is
peculiarly unique. She infuses into her
impersonations a wild freedom of manner,
amounting almost to abandon. 1t is al
inspiration to see her which the dullest in
sensibility cannot fail to catch. Give Miss
MAGGIE a greeting such as she merits
when she comes.
