THE FIRST BALL OF THE SEAsoH.-The
season Of music and dancing was opened
with all the honors on Thursday night Of
last week, at TangeI Hull, in Mishicott,
(under the supervision Of Mr.. DAMoS)
where was assembled many from different
parts of the couuty-Manitowoc alone be-
ing represented by twenty-five couple
whose hearts were full of romance, and
souls with the love Of music and poetry,
that began to overflow as soon as DIx's
Band commenced to play, and continued
until the foot became weary, and the music
was hushed into silence by the approach
ing footsteps Of the bright and beautiful
morning, when the assemblage broke up,
and separated with regrets and mutual
pledges to meet again.
We are not Of that prosaic, bitter, can
ting kind who feed their souls on husks,
and believe the devil is in the fiddle be-
cause its music leads to dancing; but we
are fond Of music and dancing, and believe
the devil is in the soul that does not love
the music Of the fiddle. We hope this
will prove most emphatically the season of
balls and gay parties, when we, and those
like ourself who love to dance, can meet,
and swapping our fingers at the hard times,
enjoy ourselves as all did at Mshicott.-
At these social gatherings We find those
rational enjoyments that conduce to health
of body aud vigor Of mind, aud we advise
that such parties become more frequent
and fully attended.
The party at Mishicott was pleasant
one, and Mr. DAMON and his assistants re-
ceived warm tharks from all the guests =
The people Of Mishicott were unsParing
in their kindness and attentions TO their
Manitowoc neighbors, and gave abundant
proofs Of their well known hospitality
To Mr.. ALFRED SMITH and lady, are, and
ou's, are under renewed obligations.

THE Editor Of tie International Journal
says:-"Ofal al the specifics offered for the
cure of Lung complaints, we have the greatest
faith in WISTAR'S BALSAM OF WILD CHER,
RY. Free from those narcotic Ingredients
which enter so largely into the composition of
some other patent medicines, it acts without in
jury to the nervous sustem. We speak of this
valuable medicine from personal kuo.cledge OF
its effect. Scarcely two years have elapsed
since member of our family was rails ed from the
very brink of the grave through it's use; aud in
several subsequent cases where it has been adj
mnstered in our household, it has never since
failed of the desired effect. We cheerfully
commend it to our friends in the Western
States, and among the rest of mankind &C
certain remedy for d feases of the lungs"

On Tuesday last we attended the fifth annual
Fair of the Nottingham Agricultural Society
Being moved and instigatcd thereto by strong
desire to see what we had never vet seen, a
Town Fair in Nottingham, we made such ar
engagements with our ncighhor of the .irqitS
whose paper, by the way, We are compelled to
trounce occasionally, that We arrived at Jack
Sonyille about o'clock, 4. NJ, without the oc-
currence of any very noticeable incident. From
this point our progress was slow. The road for
more than mile was filed with every dcscrip-
ton of vehicles, drawn by all sorts of horses
and loaded literally to Overlooking with men.

wife, were going to the Fair This procession
wound its way slowly up the long and majestic
hill whose summit is crowned by the old school
house, the older church, the tavern and the
store-those nuclei which of themselves are suf

and its valleys all begirt by still higher range

Its wagon was drawn by 81 pairs of oxen.-
Both of these teams were consecutively escort

We learn from the Middlebury Register that
Lucius J. Wright, Esq, of Weybridge, sold his
fine short horn bull, Marquis, = years old at the
State Fair last week, to I. w. Park, Esq, Of
San Francisco, California, for $500. MARQUIS
won the first prize at the State Fair, and has
been the winner of FIRE first prizes at different

"STocKBRIDGE CHIEF" horse sired BY
Hills Black Hawk won the $1,000 prize COM
peted for by ring of forty roadstcrs at the st.

awarded to "Green Mountain" who was the
most formidable competitor for the $1,000
against Stochbridge Chief
The net earnings of the Rutland and Burling-
ton Railroad in the year past are about $50, 900,
a gain of nearly 100000 over the previous year.

The Hon. Henry b. Anthony, who has for
twenty years conducted Tic Providence journal
with marked ability, is about to retire from its
supervision and give place to Prof. James b.
Angel, Of Brown University who has during
several years been an occasional contributor to
its columns. Mr.. Anthony takes his seat as
United States Senator for Rhode Island in the
next Congress.
The liveliest gold item of the season is in
late Marposa gazette. which says, "three quartz
miners struck pocket in quatz lode not far
from this place, from which they took IN ONE
DAY quartz and gold that will yield nearly, if
not quite, THIRTY THOUSAND DOLLARS.
4 careful demonstration has shown that 800
pounds of pure gold represents the entire guam
tity taken out of the graves at ChiriQui. This
would give only the sum of $40 900, calculating
the value at $3.50 per pound. To gather this
$4,000 has required 10000 days work, per-
formed by about 10000 persons, mostly during
the mouth Of July.

The season for the annual Fairs of Tie va
rious state, county and town agricultural socic-
ties is now past and the exhibitions for this
region have come and gone. The weather with
the exception of week before last has been very
favorable, and the expositions generally have
been quite successful
These recurring exhibitions if properly con-
Quoted are of material benefit to the agricultu-
raj and industrial community They tend to
stm excrtion and ncite to improvement
A farmer will there see finer cattle than can be
found in his own herds and learn better princi-
pies for breeding stock. BY attending year of
ter year he can appreciate the comparative adj
vantagcs arising from growing different fmi-
lies of stock, and will be able to form a tolera-
blycorrect opinionas TO their relative adaptation
to his own means and necessities. In all 9TH
er departments of il dustry the same rule OBJ
tains. An intelligent, observing man secs to
learn, and learns by practice to see accurately
and judge correctly. But these are not the on
ly advantages of Fairs. They serve as a sort
of holiday in which, after the close of the hcav-
lest work of the season, men, women and child
rem can unbcnd n short time from their contin-
uous labors, meet each other in pleasant and
informal way, compare notes Of progress, en-
large their acquaintance and their sympathies,
and thus mingle what should always be united,
amusement with improvement.
There are many ways in which our Fairs
could be made better and the general interest
in their success greatly enhanced, which will
readily suggest themselves to those who have
been engaged in maintaining them. Now is
the time, before the impressions they have left
are worn away TO consider the obstacles in the
way of their full development and to devise APP
propriate and adequate remedies. In very
few months the primary meetings, at which ar
engagements for future exhibitions will be made,
will be held. 1t is then and there that reforms
are to be initiated If each farmer and every
other man interested in the success of agricul-
tural exhibitions will now reflect upon such sug-
gestions as may have occurred to him relative
to their advancement and will present the same
at the meetings for business in a maturcd form,
he will do good thing for the society or asso-
citation with which he is connected.

Gov. BANKS EXPERIENCE AT BURLINGTON.
While Gov. Banks was at Burlington during
the State Fair he was accompanied in his ride
among the horses by the venerable man whose
name is SO intimately associated with "Black
Hawk" horses, and who is supposed to know
by heart the pedigrces that are in the remotest
degree allied to the progentor of that noble,
almost royal family. The results of this drive
led the Governor to tell the Greenfield people,
in his address at the Franklin County Fair last
week, that from his observations at burlington,
he was satisfied that there was some danger of
carrying admiration for the horse too far, so as
to lose even due regard for our own race. Yer
mont famous for lis fine horses, and the peo-
pie seemed to think of little else comparative
ly. this he had seen some amusing illustra-
tons at Burlington, for, on observing noble
looking man, whose appearance indicated him
to be one of natures noblemcn, he inquired of
friend who he was, and was answered. chat
is . year old" Soon after, he saw lady
of majestic gait and magnificent form, crossing
the street. "Who is that ?" said he to his
friend. "1Hat's q ! gear old, sired By Nor
gan,' was the reply. On asking the driver of
the fast trotting horse, Woodchuck, whether
the speed was in the horse or in the driver, he
replied, "a little of both, for we have both got

Missouri WHITENING Our.-Free labor /,
rapidly drowning slave labor out in Missouri
y St Louis paper Of the 10th says one hundred
and fifty negroes arrived there from the inter-.
or, bound South, and upwards of one hundred
are leaving daily. The Lexington Express Of
Missouri, states that there is scarcely a count,
in that part of the State but what has its slave
buyers for the South, and that the adult slave
population is rapidly decreasing.
The st. Louis Democrat says that every boat
brings groups of slaves down the river from the
interior, on the way to the South. a gentle
man residing at st. Joseph tells us that within
three months half the slaves in that town and
vicinity have disappeared-somc across the river
on their own account, and the rest down stream
at the instance of their owners. If the present
exodus continues there will not be thousand
slaves left in the State of Missouri in four years
from this time

Henry Black of Newport, Pa, who undertook
to sever the head of hen, was attacked by
rooster, which spurred him on the hand into an
artery. About two weeks aftea the accident he
was attacked with intense pain, sckning sem
saton of the heart. and his sufierings became
insupportable At this date a remarkable oc-
currence took place. He drew his entire frame
together, as though to gain strength for an act,
and his voice broke forth like the growing of
rooster. This was repeated from time to time,
and such was the similarity Of voices, that cut
side listeners asserted their belief that it was
rooster. After four days of indiscribable suffer-
ing he died.
