The STATE FA1R.-Thc Annual State Fail
came off at Rutland last week. Very good ar
raugements had been made for It's accommoda-
ton, and much more might have been exhibited
to good advantage if it had only been there
Some departments were tolerably well furnished
but as whole we judge that the exhibition was
inferior TO previous years. During the latter
part of the weak there was a very good attend
ance. One Of the most extensive exhibits
seemed to be in the department OF human ma
ture Here we had an extensive variety from
the pompous officials to the artificial darkies
There was no lack of catch-pcnny shows and
rare chances for invaluable Investments in Won
derful articles TO amuse, enrich, and bless the
fortunate purchaser beyond the power of hu-
man language to describe, and those who would
buy should be rewarded with golden gifts Ii
seemed like great Babel Of eager worshipers
at the shrine of mammon.
Governor Sprague of Rhode Island was ex-
pected, but was suddenly called to Washington.
Hon. Josiah Quincy, Jr., of Boston, and Gen.
James Wilson of California, were present as
Speakers. Great credit is due the friends of
temperance in Rutland, in making preparations
for the Fair, by spilling, on Tuesday, 600 gal
Ions of liquor. thereby greatly diminishing the
means of rowdyism and intemperance. If the
State Fairs are to be continued in Vermont, they
should be made the objects Of more general at
tention and interest.

THE ENGLISH ON AMERICAN AFFAIRs.--
The Methodist in reference to our treatment
by the English press says:
The worst of all her mareatment is, per-
haps, the fact that after compelling us for so
many years to assert our claims to her respect,
by her own persistent denial Of them, she
even turns this selfassertion into reason of
contempt, and brands us for the egotism -
which we so legitimately derive through our
English blood. We say j." she, but let us
again remind ourselves that it is Of class,
and not of o nation, that we can thus speak.
The short-sightcdness of this policy of the
English press is astonishing. Do Englishmen
expect the American people to be annihilated,
even if our Federal Union should be irrepar-
ably gone? Do they bear in mind that these
Free States alone are to-day equal in popula-
tion to the whole Republic as reported at its
census of 1850? Was the nation of insig-
ni6cant Importance to England in 1850?
What people on earth held then, or holds now,
or will hold hereafter, in its grasp, more of
the vital interests Of England? Where has
she had more important market for her COM
merce? Where more necessary granary
to save her population from starvation
Where could she find more fatal perils from
political animositiesin 10 her times of war? These
are questions which Englishmen should ask
themselves at this hour. They were never
more relevant than at this hour. The hour
may not be far distant, however, when they
may become more serlous y relevant

Dedication and ). s. Festival at Newport.
Brother Bridge writes us in regard to the
dedication at Newport, which was noticed by
another correspondent last week. He says:
Wo held prayer and conference meeting
in the evening, g,-the Divine Presence seemed
to fill the house. We all felt that it was time
to dedicate our hearts to God anew. A few
arose desiring the prayers of Gods people,
We are looking and praying for harvest of
souls We feel that God is with US, reclaim
ing both preacher and members Of the church
from their backslidings. Pray for us We
have pleasant, convenient Chapel" and it
is our prayer that it may prove blessing to
this people. Last Sabbath our Sabbath School
numbered one hundred and thirty-fve MEM
bers. We have model Superintendent Rev.
H. Stevens, who seems peculiarly fitted, for
this work
Early on the morning Of the 9th oul usual.
ly quiet place presented lively scene both
ed and young ere yieing each with the 9TH
or in making arrangements for the Festival.
A beautiful artificial grove, or camp, was
prepared, in circular form, and tastefully
arranged and trimmed, 4" God is Love" as a
Motto, being placed over the main entrance
then circular table was laden with a variety
of good things, calculated to tempt the appe.
tite. The eatabes were "got up" in good
taste, doing honor to those who labored hard
to prepare them. At an early hour the Sab.
bath Schools in this place were at the Chap
ell prepared to receive the ncighboring Schools
which we're seen coming from Coventry, No.
Troy and Province Hill, G. E., with the ban.
ner of our country floating in the breeze above
hem.
Brother H. Stevens called the multitude to
order, and Mr.. D. Hildreth, Marshal, read
the programme Of exercises.
We then listened to prayer and reading Of
Scriptures; then speech from Rev. ?. H.
White Of Coventry, followed by the brethren
in the ministry. Rev. Brother Hicks of Pot
ton, G. b., A. r. Gray of Coventry, j. Bald
win of Randolph, interspersed with fine sing
ing by the Newport Center and Coventry
Schools, and Professor d. P. Boyden Of STRAIT
ford, N. II.
A procession was then formed, and after
marching quietly around to our camp and ta-
king our places at the tables, we enjoyed
pleasant time while discussing the merits Of
the good things prepared for us after which
the Schools quietly retired to the Chapel and
listened to singing, and short speech by
Prof. E. P. Boyden, and a Benediction by
Rev. J. W. Bridge. The people were then
dismissed We had good time, and all felt
it was good to be there. J. W. BRIDGE.

The Fourth in Halifax.-.Crsps &c.

The Fourth was spent in quite festive
fashion at Oak Level, Halifax county, Va
A letter from that place. dated July 5th, says:
We had quite a lively time in our little viii
lage yesterday, 4th of July. The day was
cool and delightful, and at eleven o clock, al q
grove near the village, large concOurse of
people assembled, mostly OF the fair sex:
Anderson and his company of "Guerillas, I"
numbering sixty-fye. all in uniform, made
their appearance in the grove with their band
of music and two Confederate flags floating
to the breeze. One was inscribed in rich let
in memory of '7s;' the other, Sic iSemger
Tvrannis, Liberty or Blood!" The company
was received amid the most enthusias tic
cheers and the waving Of handkerchiefs. The
company then was drilled by Capt. Anderson
In q manner creditab!e both to him and his
command. After drilling about two hogrs,
the throng retired to the table, where the la
dies of the neighborhood had q bountitul ee-
past spread, with all the delicacies Of the
season.
After dinner was over, an address was de-
liyered by Capt. w. J. Old. Subseq uently,
the grey haired veterans presented the jave-
niles with a beau tifnl cannon, -four FOUNDER, }
which will be very expertly used under the

Secession.-This subject was very ably and
prettily handled before the public at the First
Baptist Church on the occasion of the last an
nual commencement Of the Female Institute,
by Miss NJ. Lou Macfarlane, one of the gradu
atiag class, in an essay which evinced no in
considerable amount of research and acquaint-
ance with the political history Of the country.
A correspondent says that passing notice OF
it might stimulate our young men to extra
exertion in the country's cause" They do
not, however, require any additional stimulus
than the present condition Of the country and
the approving smiles of the ladies to nerve
them to do their best. On the delivery of the
essay spoken of, such was the popularity OF
secession, when advocated by young lady
that the author was, as she deserved to be-
rapturously applauded, besides receiving floral
tributes enough to satisfy even Patti. God
bless the women.

City Defences.-The Mayor of the town of
Danville sent down "a free negroes, to work on
city defences. Six also came voluntarily from
Lunenburg, and large number of factory
hands were sent down from this city, whose
performances, it is said, were very Inefficient,
they having been unused to such work and ac-
customed to living within doors. The con-
victs from the Penitentiary 600 of whom are
employed) work like beavers, and the negroes
from Danville and Lunenburg worked very
faithfully. The latter have now gone home
Mr.. Richard Reins has general charge of the
whole works, and John Hagan is Commissary
for the whole of the force employed.
The late action of the State Convention to-
gether with the resolution passed by the Coun-
Gil on Monday, has made the services of the
free negroes of che city available to do such
work; and if those who are now epcumbering
the city with their worse than useless presence
were immediately set to work, the whole of the
defences could soon be completed, and at the
same time our operations be relieved of the
anopalous condition they have lately present
ed, of labor performed by volunteer free ne
groes, who came more than a hundred miles to
work on the defences of the city, while hun
dreds of the same class are now in our midst,
idle and vicious, and corrupting our slaves.

The Lead and Copper Mines of Wythe.
The mineral resources of Virginia must now
be looked upon with more interest than ever
by the Southern people. The following let
ter, dated Hiils.ilis, Carroll county, Va :,
July 4th, furnishes information and makes
suggestions which not only capitalists, but
the Confederate Government, would do well
to reflect upon and turn to advantage
l find myself, for the first time in my life,
away down here amid The hills Of this South
western part of the State, and have been
heard Of the topography and history of this
region. On my way paid visit to that
most interesting, and now especially fmpor-
taRt region, the ''lead mines" OF Wythe. 1t
is to these mines we must look for those in
tereSting 8aisSires that our brave boys know
so well how to transmit i'll and to the cow
ardly carcasses of Lincoin's minions, when
they can have even the half OF a chance, and
none, among all our troops, with more uner-
ring accuracy than the hardy sharp- shooters
of Carroll. The polite and gen tlemanly man
ager of the mines, Mr.. VIM. kohler, kindly
accompanied my friend and myself through
the may windiIgs of the drifts and tunnels,
and at depth of 225 feet selected a beauti-
ful specimen Of the rich ore to carry home
With me. The quantity is Unlimited. The
yield of lead is equal to three tons Per day,
and the mines and furnaces are worked dry
and night, Sabbath included-the pressing
wants OF the service req pirIng it. The guam
tlty OF bucksnot made per day would be
equal to at least five per carcass of each
Lincoln soldier now anywhere near to Fir-
| gnia. Besides the mines referred to, ought
| to mention the operations OF Judge Fulton in
manufacturing lead one mile below the frs
| named, and where he is making from one and
II half to three tons per week. The ore is
inexhaustible, and the per cent. of zinc with
it, it is thought, will pay a fair profit to sepa
rate it, yet 1t has not been done.
