Our Fair Grounds and Fair.

The determination and enterprise ex-
hibited by the Officers of the Agricultural
Society in making preparations for our
Fair, connot scarcely fail, to make it one
of the very best in eastern Ohio. The
fence, twelve feet in height, is almost
completed, and many of the stalls, large
and comfortable are nearly finished. A
few days since the managers determined
to erect on the grounds mechanical and
and floral hall. The funds for building
this hall, amounting to six hundred and
fifty dollars, were obtained by the liberal
ity of gentlemen of this place who advanc-
ed the means.
A track has been laid out, and will
shortly be graded, about q fourth ofa mile
in length. Altogether the arrangements
will be equal to those of any county in this
part of the State, and the liberality of the
premiums cannot fail to bring together
articles equal in number to two or three
former fairs.
1t is furthermore the intention of the
managers to procure some orator of ma
tional reputation to deliver an address or
the occasion. In short such attractions
will be presented as will insure an i'm
mense crowd and splendid exhibition.
The publication of the laws has crowd
ed the premium list, but we will insert i
again in q short time.

Correct Spelling.

We advise all young people to acquire
in early life the habit of using good Ian
guage, both in speaking and writing, and
and also to abandon as early as pos
sible any use of slang words and phrases.
The longer they live the more difficult the
acquisition of such language will be; and
if the golden age of youth, the proper
season for the acquisition of language,
be passed in its abuse, the unfortunate
victim of neglected education is ever
probably doomed to talk slang for life
Money is not necessary to procure this
education. Every man has it in its pow
er He has merely to use the language
which he reads instead of slang which he
hears, to form his taste from the best
speakers and poets in the country; to
treasure up choice phrases in his memory,
and habituate himself to their, use
avoiding at the same time that pedantic
precision and bombast, which show rather
the weakness of vain ambition than the
polish of an educated mind.

A Fearful Performance.

On Saturday night, at little after II I,
subsequent to the play, the curtain rose
at the Metropolitan, and exhibited
M. Blondin, standing on the lower tart
of the rope which led from the back part
of the stage of the Metropolitan up to the
roof of the theater in the third tier, at an
angle of forty four degrees, with Colonel
Lum Smith soundly and firmly perched
upon his shoulders. NJ. Blondin had
heavy ballance-pole, and commenced
his perilous walk without the slightest
hesitation, treading firmly and confidently
on the rope, as though he had no extra
weight to bear.
He walked somewhat slower than his
won't but gained the third tier, amid the
cheers and huzzas of the whole audience,
who were breathless from the time he
started from the stage until he reached his
destination. Arriving there with his bur-
den, he waited about three minutes, and
then commenced his still more perilous
return. This he accomplished wlthou,
accident, though several times he preten.
ded to lose his footing, sending cold chll'
up and down the breasts of every one
present, and, we opine, alarming Col
Lum little more than standing in tht
middle of fame and holding the pipe o
an engine. We have seen him scorchins
from head to foot, when he had apparent
ly more nerve than on this occasion.
The feat, wonderful as it was, was per
fectly performed, and it is more extraor
dinary from the fact that, Mr.. Blondil
weighs but 130 pounds, the weight of tn
man carried was l65.
We think this is greater performanc
than GRO ossing the chasm of Niagara.

e8 We would suggest to the Herald
that in stealing editorials it should steal
from papers which do not lie so egregi-
ously. In pilfered editorial of last
week, we ind this statement
Failing to crowd Judge Whitman off
the ticket he is by universal democratic
consentignored as among the dead"
The truth is, that after the execution of
SWAN for not violating his official oath,
by the Republicans, it was suggested in
the Cincinnati Enquirer that WHITMAN
decline in order that the people might
directly rebuke the traitorous convention,
by re.electiBg SWAN. The Democratic
press almost universally opposed the
movement, insisting, very properly, that
the same object would be accomplished
by the election of WHITMAN. There is
not the slightest evidence that WHITMAN
will run vote behind his ticket.

to it such emigration and naturalization
do not exempt them from the legal pen

if they deserted from the army, at the

But case has actually occurred, and the
President and entire cabinet have decided
it. This decision settles the matter be-
yond all further controversy. The fol-
lowing is telegraphic synopsis of it:
"The Constitution of this morning con-
tains a copy of dispatch from the State
Department, recently sent to our Minis
ter at Berlin, on the subject Of naturaliza-
ton. The case.is that of q naturalized
citizen of the U. S., who is native OF
Hanover, and who, when he left his ma
tive country, was neither in actual service
in the Hanoveran army, nor had he been
drafted to serve in it, but who has yet up
on his return to Hanover been deprived
of his liberty and compelled 10 perform
military service. The President and
Cabinet concur in the views expressed,
taking the ground that the moment for-
cigner become naturalTzed he is no more
responsible for anything he may say or do
or omit to say or do after assuming his
new character, than if he had been born
in the United States. Should he return
to his native country, he returns an A
merican citizen and in no other character
In order to entitle his original govt te

offence must have been complete before

The 4th Of July at BareSyille.

I happened to be in Baresville on the
fourth, and thankfully accepted an invita-
tion to attend the Sabbath school cele.
bration in that pleasant village. The
day was cool and very pleasant.
At 9 o'clock in the morning, the Sunday
school scholars, and their teachers met
at the church, formed in procession and
marched to the orchard of Jacob Bare,
Esq, where there were seats, and tables
arranged for their accommodation. The
exercises were opened with prayer by the
Rev. McCue, after which the exercises
consisted in dialogues, defamation, vocal
music, and the reading of the Declaration
of Independence, by Albert Nc Cue, which
was very elegantly performed.
The exercises were delightfully."- inter
spersed with vocal music by the Sabbath
school choir. Many of the scholars who
performed came off with decided triumphs
''The American National song" very
difficult piece, was sung with fine effect by
Messrs S. B. Brock and L. T. Bare
1t was one of the finest pieces we have
heard for a long time, and done grea
credit to the vocalists, who I think art
hard to excel.
At IL O'Clock arrangements were mad'
for dinner, which was very rich one; th'
tables were heavily laden with all kind
of eatables, which the citizens very liber
ally provided for the occasion. Afte
dinner the exercises recommended ant
continued till late in the afternoon, whe
the exercises were closed by YER
able address, by the Rev. McCue, ant
the audience departed for their respectiv
homes, all we'll pleased with the days pro
ceedings.. 1t will be day long to be re
membered by the Sabbath school schol
} lars of Baresville, and will no doubt i'm
press on their young minds, the impor,
ance of attending the Sabbath schoo
which is working a great moral reforI
in these United States, and we hope tha
the sabbath school institution will contir
ue to celebrate that great anniversar
the birth day of our glorious land, th
fourth of July, l776.

The number of men who started for
Pixies Peak last spring, at low estimate
was moi less than two hundred thousand;
one hundred and fifty thousand of whom
have gone back, twenty thousand are here
yet, and thirty thousand are yet to come
in. You perhaps have heard more about
Pixies Peak by this time than I can tell
you. I know you have heard of the
Gregory diggings, and the jackson dig
gings; of men making only from 25 to $50
dollars daily there. To these reports
give no credence for they probably are
false. My honest convictions are that
these mines are not humbug the noun
tains are nearly one mass Of solid gold,
and to compare these gold mines with the
California mines, would be to compare
Pixies Peak with potatoe hill. Yet 1
advises no one to come, for the claims are
all taken up, and it takes from $4,000 to
100000 dollars to buy one. If any num-
ber does muster up courage enough to
start, I will wager button that three
fourths turn back on the road, and also
that those who trot it through will &C.
knowledge before they are here two days
that they would as leave be common citizens
of Monroe as Pixies peakers. The noun
tains have been prospected from Pixies
Peak two hundred miles north, and dc
positively declare that there is but one
gulch that has got any gold in it at all
and all the claims on it are taken up and
being fought about, and cannot be had fol
less than $4,000 dollars. I am sorry
that no more came from Monroe and got
claims, but it is too late now, for there are
no more diggirgs and hundreds who can
not get claims are leaving. There is
little fine gold here, the Jumps weigh
often from 125 to 100 pounds each.
