 The Union Agricultural Society held theil fair in Woodbury last week, which was in every respect and particular, g decided success. The following report we have from reliable cores pondent, who was on the ground We hope to be able to publish the list of premiums given. in our next issue:
 The event of the week in our valley. has been the annual Union Agricultural and Hortcul- tural" Fair.
 Last year witnessed it's inaugural exhibition. This year has given proof that it is firmly es- tablished institution. Through the active and efficient influence of our esteemed representative in the last Legislature, (Philo NJ. Trowbridge Esq., an act of incorporation was passed, giving to this enterprise all the advantages which the laws so wisely afford to such associations. The large attendance and splendid exhibition of stock and agricultural products, collected here on the Beth and 27th, show how eagerly the district which cemposes the Society, (Watertown, Mid dlebury, Southbury, Roxbury, Washington, Beth lem and Woodbury,) avails itself of the privile- ges thus afforded.
 One want was early felt by those who had the management of the exhibition-the want of a tent. Where shall we obtain one-one that will not blow down? was the question eagerly asked. Surely no place could furnish us with tent, built to stand the wind, unless that place were Litchfeld! Where does the wind ever blow if not on that classic hill? One would as natural ly expect winter-strained oil to congeal in sum- mer, as tent built to withstand your high winds to prove unequal to our quiet breezes. Yet Mr. Editor, we were grievously deceived! Scarcely had the Ltchfeld canvass been spread in our sheltered valley, when puff from the west blew it over, and with it went our previous confidence in the superiority of Litchfeld airs.
 It was easily righted however, and the next day being in more senses than one, fair day was soon filled with the most astonishing collec ton of fruits, vegetables and flowers that we have witnessed for many year. Those who examn ed the display within the tent, and then passed through the multitudes of cattle without, saw as fine an exhibition of the animal and vegetable productions of our State, in quality, if not ir quantity, as any similar institute can produce this fall.
 To instance any particular entries where there were so many deserving of praise, would be g difficult task
 The second day of the fair was devoted to hor ses. and the attendance was quite as large as al the exhibition of neat stock. Many noble ami mals were there to be seen, and many fair danes were there to see and admire them. A spirited trot concluded the display, and then the compa ny separated-part to witness trot for purse made up by the young men of the town-and part to listen to an address by the Rev. Johr Churchill. The address was delivered within the tent, and was something over an hour long, The Rev. gentleman did not himself state the title q his discourse, but his object was to show that our aim in life should be to advance ourselves He handled the subject in 8 very appreciative manner, and the society at it's conclusion, by g unanimous vote, requested copy of the dis Fcourse for publication.
