THE STATE FAIR FOR 1857


Was opened ON Tuesday last--o clear and
cool day. The day was occupied in the entry
of articles of exhibition, and cnliyened by
excellent music from Halls Boston Brass
Band, and volunteers on the trouing course
Tho entries were, on the whole, few for a
state exhibition. The number and quality of
horses was good--of cattle and sheep, far too
few, though embracing good specimens
Among the sheep were Cotsworld, Oxford
shire, Cape African Leicester, South Down,
French and Spanish Merino, and mixed Ey-
identity tie attention of farmers is being turn
ed to sheep which will be valuable for the
SHAMELESS, as well as for combing woods: two
profitable points which have been too much
overlooked in Vermont Horticultural and
Mechanical Halls we're not full, the season
having been uniavorable, and the time too
early for a good show of fruits In butter
and cheese there were but few specimens
nearly all from approved Washington County
dairies. sugar-beautul specimens from
various sections, agricultural implements
and Mechanical spetimens-lew, but good. -
Most prominent among the Mechanical were
two splendid locomotives from the V. c. r.
R. shop at Mortified. These, of course
were exhibited on the railroad track at the
depot.
On Wednesday, there were additional
cattle, making the number large. We OBJ
served also a great variety of apples-somo
very fne-from the orchard Of A. Webster
Roxbury. The show of horses was excellent

animals embracing fine specimens of the best
breeds in Vermont Prominent in the field.
ridden by the Chief Marshal, was the old
Green Mountain Morgan stepping to the
music as daintily as in earlier days, and the
gayest of the gay. There, too, was the "Mor-
rill horse from Danville, the BLACK Ban
nor' from Brandon, eleven fine animals of
different breeds, exhibited by Hon. John
Gregory of Mortified, and others too numer-
GUS to mention-fne representatives Of the

to mention another feature, without which the
