Come 10 tho Fair.

Our readers will bear in mind that the next
Seneca County Fair comes of on the 7th, sth
and 9th Of October. 1t is expected to excel in
every department Of trade and industry, anything
ever before seen in the county. The officers Of
the Association have spared no pains, to give in
tere t and character to the occasion, and Il re-
mains for the people Of the county to do the rest
If our farmers will bring in abundantly Of the
different products, which Nature has so goner-
Otisly bestowed upon them; IL our merchants aud
mechanics will display choice specimens Of their
wares and the results Of their handicralt; if the
ladies (God bless em) will only do their duty
and, by the magical touch Of their delicate iin
gers, weave enchantment around tho whole,
THEN we will have Fair, Of which we may well
be proud
The Board Of Directors design opening Gal.
iery FOR the Fine Arts in the building erected on
the grounds, and they have obtained large Col
lection uf fine Oil Paintings and Engravings,
which will be on exhibition during the Fair. We
hope this department will be FILLED with speci-
mems Of artistic taste aud skill, combining the i
namenal with the useful. A corner should also
be devoted to the Floral Queen.
The Board have also determined to allow sales
ofStock and Manufactured Articles on the ground
during the Fair, and have secured the services Of
an Auetioneer, for that purpose. Stock and ar
tioles that brought to the grounds for the pur
pose of being disposed Of at auction, need not be
entered for Premiums, unless the owners thereof
wish to do so.
Messrs. Karr & Starr, who took most Of the
Premiums on fine Sheep, at our last State Fair,
will offer some Of their sheep for sale, thus Civ
ing good opportunity to persons, wishin; to
improve their stock Of sheep, to do 30.

MasEniroa Thinking that il might not be
altogether unlhteresting 20 your readers, have
concluded to give you short account Of The great
Democratic meeting(D lately held at the Red
School House In Seneca township; and Of the
manner in which the Black Republican party was
then and there knocked into tho middle Of next
week. It bad been announced that Griffith and
Lanlon were to address the people upon that oc-
cason, and accordingly these two famous orators
in their own proper persons, presented them
selves, on the evening specified, at the school
house aforesaid. About thirty Of the masses had
turned out, but by some unaccountable oversight,
no lights had been provided. A Black Reptbl.
can generously furnished material vherewitb to
shed light upon the OUTER man Of the assembled
multitude, and aid tho oplors above uamed, in
more efeoiually Illuminating ,he benigb'ed iSNER
man, and thus the FiRsr difficulty was obviated.-
But upon viewing the congregation, 10! rom ev.
cry side and corner, from the middle and all over
stuck ou, distinctly perceptible to their astonished
vision, the hideoas visage ofsome Black Repub
lioan! Horrible! The meeting must be organ
ized but whore was the Loc foco to presidel-
At length Mr.. Griffith, with a sagaci,y worthy a
Sir William Temple, OF a John Dewitt, hit upon
a happy idea. Waking up, with a courage equal
to that of a Peter stuy' esant, TO a Black Repub-
lican, a conversation occurred, to-wie
GRFurn.-"Are there any Democrats here
tonight"
Black REr.-"wer-I believe there is one,
Squire ----."
G.-"Wil he answer for ChairmanW
B. R.-"Well, suppose he will"
CIV ell, you Nominate him, will second
you, you put the motion, and we will thus be or.
ganlzed and proceed"
Said Black Republican assented, and thus the
SECOND obstacle was removed
Said orators thereupon fell to work. Griffith
spoke in his usual eloquent manner: but Laudor,
the far-iamed LASDoNi who was first Wing,
then Black Republican, then q Democrat, and
is now, we understand about 20 RE-turn to Black
Republicanism, and leaving this to embrace No
hammodenism--thus chan ing his hide with IA
cility unequaled in the whole snake creation
eclpsed the frstnamed Individual completely, in
discourse, the effect of which is better imagin,d
than described.
Aiter these two tremendous pop.gnns had dis
charged their contents, The audacious Black Re.
publicans %, Temporary held meeting of their
own, being %, unuttorablo stupdityD unable to
ascertain what those incompreheusible orators
were driving ati and seeming (what 6elusion) 10

LARGE ExBxzzLENKnr.--Arress ola Clerk.
For several months past, Mr.. Walter II.
Tildon, large retail dealer in dry goods on
Broadway, South Boston, has not'c ed the
frequent and mysterious disappearance Of
various goods from his store, comprising
even whole pieces Of silks, delaines, barcres.
calicoes, &C., taken directly from his coun.
tcrs and shelves. He was finally forced to
the alternative Of believing that the clerks
were either cognizant OF the roguery going
on, or the actual robbers themselves.
Besides taking every other means to dis.
cover the mode by which he was plundered.
