The State Fair

Our Columbia exchanges furnish fiatter-
ing accounts Of the success of the third
annual Fair Of the State Agricultural So
cirty, which opened 10 Columbia on Tues.
day morning of last week. The city, il is
said, was filled to n jam, the crowd being
larger than at either Of the previous exhi-
billions
The social intercourse which these Fairs
furnish the occasion for, is not the least of
their beneficial results upon Stale or COM
mun'ty. One who makes an occasional Wis
ii TO an assemblage Of this KIND, composed
Of representatives of the Agricultural and
Industrial interests Of various sections of
the country, and who participates in the
noble objects which called them together,
cannot but return home with an increased
knowledge Of the resources Of his country.
and Of the elements she affords for domestic
prosperity ard contentment with his feel
ings and notions enlarged, his ideas brigh-
tened, and himself thoroughly invigorated
by contact with his fellow-mcn. The mu-
tual benefit which they confer upon the
Agricultural and Mechanical interests of
the country,b m interchange OF ideas and
suggestions is r theme of deep and univer-
sal importance and one which the most en-
lighteaed portions Of our State seem now
thoroughly awakened to.
We publish on another column an inter-
esting notice OF and summary Of some of
the articles on exhibition, copied from the
Guardian, and 10 which we refer.
The Caroiinian Of Thursday, the third
day Of the Fair, says: yesterday was prnb.
ably The day Of the Fair. The crowd was
estimated at about ten thousand. The
throng was absolutely oppressive. The
Committees, too, were busy NIL day making
their awards. The Committees were well
| appointed, and we hope their awards will
be accepted. We are sorry to learn that
IN the majority Of cases, the awards have
been made known. This is certainly bad
policy. ln every respect, it has been q
! Fair that reflects the highest credit an the
agricultural, mechanical and artistic accom-.
pIishments If our people-and the crowd
which II has drawn together is indisputabl,
and most flattcring evidence os the intense
interest With which these exhibitions ol
science, skill and art are regarded.
