The FIRST Fair of the 'Union Agricul-
tural Association" of Ross, Fayette and
HighlaNl counties, was held on Wednos-
day, drsday md Friday Of last week.
Though politely favored with a ticket by
the Managers, We were unable to at.
tend, much to our regret and disoppoint-
ment. A large number of our citizens
we're present, from whom, as we'll as
from other sources, we learn that the
Fair was successful far beyond the
anticipations of the most sanguine, be-
ing pronounced by many equal to the
State Fair in point of display, and on
the last day not inferior even in the
number Of people on the ground. We
congratulate the officers of the AssOci-
alton, and the people of Greenfield, on
the result of their laudable efforts to
promote the interests and develope the
resources of the rich agricultural re-
giou surrounding their beautiful and
thriving town It will give a new impulse
to the spirit of agricultural improve
ment, which cannot fail to be Of the
greatest benefit to the whole community,
while it will tend more especially to ad-
vance the prosperity of Greenfield and
its enterprising citizens.
1t is really something for them, as
we'll as every other citizen of the coun-
ty to feel proud Of that they projected
and have carried out an undertaking
of such magnitude, and which has been
crowned with such complete success
They have earned for cold Highland"
the honorable distinction of having held
the best County Fair ccer held IN tie
State. This, we understand, was con
ceded by visitors from other counties, of
whom large numbers were in attend
ance
