that lille slovenly farmers do let them grow, have
no objection to converting the fruit into such bsyer

ELMIRA, Thursday Evening, Oct. A, 1860.
This has been an unfavorable day for the pecunary
interests of the State Fair The weather gave indca-
tons of rain early in the morning. which began to fa
before noop and served to keep back the great crowds
which is usual upon this day Of the exhibition. The
attendance therefore, has not been as good as yeser-
day, and very far below Thursday last year; IL Is
hard to get up enthusiasm enough to spend day for
pleasure under umbrellas, standing or walking upon
damp ground. The day, however, Terminated not 30
gloonily, as the sun cane out finely before night.
The Flooring Match.-This was the day set apart
for tbs blowing match which took place near the AIR
grounds, rotwhs.as ding the rain, and was paTtici-
pated in by sixteen contestants 1t is needless to say
that there was some remarkably good plo~ing. Inc

GRAFTON in farming attracted little notice that the
powiI match was not witnessed by hundred OF the
bousai d. of farmers who at that time present st
the exhibition They more interested IN looking
at about u meansst show of horses exhibited at
any State Fair. And Gov. Stewards Arabian did not
redeem the character OF the exhibition, for II was
looked upon a rather mean specimen OF horseiiesh.
STILL the announcement that he was TO De exnloi co.
together with Flora Temple and Pachen, drew about
nine tenbs of all the people present around the horse
track. II was more attractive than the much moro
usefu exhibition Of blowing. Perhaps the most In
terestpg feature of that exhibition the great i'm
proven ent that 1ss been made within few years in
plows and the form and adaptation OF plo TO every
kind Of land and every variety and purpose OF pow-
ing. There also exhibi ed with the plowss loco
motive load scraper, mounted on wheels which taxes
ND load of dirt, and carries it away and dumps Il
where needed. 1t looks as though it would prove q
valuable implement for moving dirt short distances,
such as cellsr-diggiDg aud road-mskiDg.

GrapeS and HTncs.-Among the new candidates for

come great favorlte IN all northern regions. IL is now

Several farmers are showing the Delaware grape,
