windham County Fair.

The Windham County Fair at Fayette-
vile, last week, was very decided success
the beautiful weather and the military
display being the chief attractions.
The exhibition of stock was very fair,
and also in Floral hall and Mechanics hail.
The show of vegetables was good. In
fruits, small, as usual this year.
There were some very fine horses on the
ground, among which was span belonging
to Col. Hyde Of this village, which COM
manded particular attention, from their
symmetry of form, good spirit and fine ac-
ton. The Colonel knows well how TO train
horses in the way they should 90, and we
are not surprised at his success.
The military display was quite grand
and imposing, and enough for battalion
drill. The companies on the ground were
as follows:
Saxton's River, Capt. Atcherson, G2 men.
Grafton, Capt. Howard, 50 men. Towns
bend, Capt Dutton, 10 men. Fayetteville,
Capt. Holland, AZ men. Dover, Capt. Be-
mis-, 81 men. These five companies were
all in neat and tasty uniform, and they APP
peared almost as well disciplined as regu-
lars. Their drilling was well executed, and
was the theme of many complimentary re-
marks. The Saxton's River company en-
camped on the field with tents, and attract
ed particular attention. To the military,
the Society owe large share of their sue
cess.
The crowd in attendance was very large
the people pouring in from off the mountains
in large numbers. For complete account
of the doings of the Society, our readers
are referred TO the list Of premiums in an
other place.

SERMON nv THE REV. nj

SERMON BY THE REV. DR.. ADAMS
The annual sermon before this Society was preached
by the Rev. Dr. Adams last evening at the Collegiate
Dutch Church, corner Of Twenty-ninth street aad
Fifth avenue. There large attendance and o.
good man., probably under the impression that the
house wa fail, after waiting few minutes, went
away; there were however, unoccupied seats during
tie entire service. Tie reverend gentleman discourse
was upCr France. The present Emperor would not
feel part ulrly attered if it supposed that hin
peculiar mission to defend the Catholic Church.
The speaker passed in historical review the religious
movements in France, beginning with the Fourteenth
Century France struck the first blow for Protestant
ism when the Pope who communicated Philip
letters sometimes called the father OF literature did,
much for the Protestant cause though bis career waa
Involved 10 Inconsistencies. II was France, and nos
Germany that introduced the Protestant Reformatou
of the fifteenth century. Coming down to the present.
time the speaker did not believe that any one suspect
ed NAPOLEON Ill of attachment to the Catholic Church
from profound convictions. 1t was religion OF ma
ority of the people, and adopted as the religion OF
The state for the reason that religion OF some sore
WAS essential as O means of ORDER One word from his
mouth, any time these FIVE years, and the Pope would
have been in the ber sent forth with nothing out
pgrims staff Ofthe tbiryhve millions OF the people
of France thrty-three millions connected with the
Catholic Church. That Napoleon would favor the ORE
oanization of a Gallo Church, after the manner IN
which Henry VIII. established an Anglican Ch9rea
in onposion TO Papacy no could safely predlcts
sbond the chair of ST. Peter be removed TO Paris, the
master mind of the Emperor would probably e0Dtros
the movement and turn it 10 his own advantage There
were but 900 Protestant ministers IN all France, ane
more than half of them inclned to rational'c views.
