Clarksville chronicle. (Clarksville, Tenn.) 1857-1865, 1860-11-23
Gallant New Jersey.

Eternal honor, says the New York Ea-
press, to the Broad Seal State. She has
covered herself all over with glory. Of
the whole North, she alone keeps steps to
the music of the Union The National
Flag, which her sister States, East, West
and Centre, have trailed in the dust, she
bears proudly aloft, and as long as that
flag waves over tho battle field of Mon
mouth, and Princeton, and Trenton, let
no true patriot despair Of this Republic.
The Nation has seen darker days than
these, and when the darkness was depsest,
the beacon light of hope always burned
brightly in the Jerseys In the days Of
the Revolution, when Washington was
driven by the enemy from Long Island,
from New York, from Westchester, and
from almost every other post, or point,
worth holding--New Jersey came glori-
ously to the rescue, and redeemed the day,
just when almost everything seemed to be
lost. A generation Of men have since
passed from the stage, but the people Of
New Jersey have lost nothing OF. the spirit
or the patriotism, of their forefathers.--
In the great political revolution, which
has just swept over the land, her vote
against the sectional candidate has demon
strated that she is as true to the Union
to day, as she Was in the times that tried
mems souls. We of New York are half
ashamed Of our position alongside of her.
But her noble example will not be lost
upon us. As long as there is ever one
State in the North that keeps the Union
flag unsullied with sectonalism, the ma.
tional men of the North, though for the
moment borne down by the enemy, will
rally, reform aud reconquer every inch Of
ground that is nov lost. Again, then, we
say, all honor to the Broad Seal State
Clarksville chronicle. (Clarksville, Tenn.) 1857-1865, 1860-11-23
From the Bowling Green (Ky,.) Gazette.
The Clarksville "Tenn" Fair.


Notwithstanding the many difficulties
with which this Agricultural and Mechan-
ical Association was attended at its first
opening, on Tuesday the 23d of October
last, yet the duties and responsibilities it
imposed we're met and Giacharged by the
citizens of the county aud especially Of the
| city Of Clarksville, with that satisfaction
and style characteristic Of the enterprising
spirit of Tennesseans. Until within the
last few months the location for the grounds
was not fully determined, and though at
tended with some disadvantages arising
from the want Of time to make prepara-
tons for water and out-buildings for the
protection of machinery, ect., all of which
will be remedied by the exLibiton, still
its situation is convenient and beautiful
one. 1t is one mile and a-half north fiOm
the corporation Of the city of Clarksville,
Immediately on the mephis Branch Rail-
road, embracing lovely rolling park, in
the centre of which is built in promi-
nent display the anphitheatre, upon the
summit of knoll of "mild declivity."
The machinery on Exhibition, though not
full representation IN that line was an
interesting display, embracing the latest
and most approved styles of mechanism.
The specimens Of the various classes OF
stock were not numerous, but Of the finest
order, and wellmerited the premiums award
ed. This Fair, so near the border Of Ken
tucky, brought In Immediate rivalry this
State with Tennessee, each of which ac-
quilted themselves with fair honors, near
ly making an equal division for those class
es of premiums for which spirited compe-
tition was anticipated. There may have
been some deficiencies ON this occasion ap-
parent to those whose critical observation
was brougt into full exercise, but with us
such was the kind manifestation extended
on the part Of the citizens there Of native
hospitality and appreciated courtesy, there.
by presenting in more attractive bearing
to all the interesting phases of the occasion
that We failed to detect aught other than
what to us seemed the most agreeable and
entertaining, The bright and fascinating
array of beauty that deoked and adorned
the circle was sufficiently bewitching te
lend to any action in the ring, however
ordinary, features of interest and attrac
tion.
Tis to the credit of the officers and man
ayers of this Fair, that better order and {
more quiet time could not have been ex
