tnue until the evening of Friday the 23d.
1t is all important that the entries Of articles
should be made by Monday evening, the 18th OF
Sept, in order to avoid confusion, as well as to
have the entry books placed in the hands OF the

All the principal lines of railways connecting
with the Central Ohio Railroad, as well as the
railways generally throughout the State, will
convey passengers at half the usual rates OF fare
and stock, machinery and other articles for ex-
hibitlon free. The Board of public Works were
so courteous as to pass an order allowing all ar
ticles for exhibition, shipped by the canal to go
free of toll.
In order to realize the advantages Of this ar
rangement, visitors must purchase tickets for
the round trip, at some station on the line Of
railway over which they intend to pass-tor
these tickets they must pay full fare over said
road but will be returnd free of charge.
Exhibitors ofstock machinery, &c, must ad-
vance the full rates of freight at the station

There is no doubt, but what numbers of our
citizens will 20 to GAINESVILLE next week. Ev-
cry man, woman and child in the county, that
can afford the time and means, should make i
point 20 attend the State Fair at GAINESVILLE
1t is not probable that another State Fair will
be as accessible to our citizens as the present
one-at least for several years.
The next question is, which is the best way
to get there? We say take the cars at Cadiz
and go on the P. c. & c. R. R. to Newark
then take the cars on the Central Ohio Railroad
to GAINESVILLE. This road is managed by gen
temanly, accommodating set Of Officers. Tht
fare from Cadiz to GAINESVILLE by this route vii
be only 1870 for the round trir.
We say again, let every body 60 to GAINESVILLE
next week to the State Fair.
