We believe that it is acknowledged on
all hands that the Fair held in this place
last week was ilc most pleasantand sue.
cess..ul exhibition Of The kind ever held
in this county. IL had the advantage OF
all its predecessors in point Of weather
indeed the heart could not Thaye wished
for finer weather than we had during the
two las! days Of the Fair. And we think
we ire within bounds when we say tha,
there never was such crowd Of people in
this town on a similar occasion.
The exhibition in every department was
very creditable 10 those who have been
most instrumental in getting up these an
nual shows Of Agricultural, Mechanical
and Horticultural wealth in our county !;
and the good order and taste exhibited in
the arrangement did honor 10 the ability
and energy Of the board Of managers in
charge during the past year. yvy,-.s.
We would like to particularize; but, re-
ally, there were so many things cornec
ted with the show, worthy Of note, that
a want Of room will preclude the possbil
,ity of our making the attempt. The dis
play Of stock was unusually fine, and tn.
grand exhibition Of premium cattle on
the afternoon Of the last day was enough
TO cause the hearts Of The Wyandots who
Witnessed the scene, TO throb with emo
tons Of pride. And, by the way, we will
mot let this occasion pass without the re-
mark that we believe the great improve
.mcnt that has been made in stock in this
county during the past few years, is du'
in n great measure TO the interest ava
kened by these annual exhibitions. y
The Hall, which was devoted TO the
display otlhe products Of tie Garden and
the Field, the Orchard and the Flowel
Garden, the shops and the Manufactories,
the Artists Studio and the Ladies Sewing
Circle, the Dairy and the Kitchen, togeth-
er with Music, and almost every Other
department Of labor, science and art,
was q decided success. The only thing
to obe regretted in this department was,
that, instead ofaone Hall, there should
have been two or three Of the dimensions
" The one now in use-many things in
tended for this part Of the exhibition, were
not there in consequence of the fear that
they might be damaged, because Of III,
accommodations being so limited.
I'VE had a most excellent display oI
Agricultural Machinery. Almost every
description of labor-saviug machines for
blowing, sowing, reaping, lhreshng. &c.
were there, and we were glad to see our
farmers evince SO much interest in these
improvements for tilling the soil and
gathering its products. n5 s.isbIa .r4eo
The exhibition OF fast horses, was very
crcditable and would have passed off quite
pleasantly had it not been for an accident,
with which it was attended. One of the
sulkies in the ring was run against a tree,
mashing il up pretty badly, and the horse
becoming detached, rushed through the
crowd, which gave way for him. until he
came to the buggy of Mr.. Thurman, Of
Carey, in which he and his lady were
seated, when he made a desperate dash
right over it, wounding Mr.. T. very Sc.
verely and his wife slightly.
As we expect to publish the list of pre-.
miuhs awarded, next week. it is scarcely
necessary 10 60 into any further particu.
lars, and we will close by saying that
everybody seemed to be pleased, and we
think the exhibition will have a good ten.
