CASS COUNTY FAIR. = The Cass
County Agricultural Society Will hold its twelfth
annual fair at Cassapols, on the Sth 9th and 10th
days Of October inst. The directors have made
the most ample preparations for this fair, and it
will no doubt be the most successful ever held in
this county. The grounds, buildings, &C., have
been repaired and placed in the best of order. The
premium list has been materially increased and
extra attractions offered, among which may be
mentioned the exhibition of pair Of beautiful full
grown elk, from the park of Jas. E. BONNIE, OF
Youngs Prairie. 1t is to be hoped that the farm
ers, manufacturers, and in fact everybody, for
and assist the Society in mixing the fair both an
honor and profit to the county.

SAGINAW SA1T.-The State Geologiet of Michi-
gan states that strong brine may be procured
throughout the center Of that State basiug his be-
Lief upon purely geological inferenccs, and even
suppoees it certain that the Michigan Salt Group,
which has already been explored, will prove pro-
ductive throughout the center Of the State He
ventures the opinion that there is underlying these
extensive basins another basin Of still greater ex
tent, which has never been explored within those
imltE. He says: This is stuated about 500 Or 800
feet below the other basin, and literally uudcrlies
the entire peninsula. Its margin rises to The sur
face at Mackinac On the north, Milwaukee on the
west, Sy1rania, Ohio and Marion county, Michi-
gan, on the south, and Gait, in Canada West. On
the east. It is the source of all the brine worked
at Syracuse and vicinity, in the State Of New York
There is come Indications that the great basin
formed BY the rocks in Michigan, is also filed with
brine. supposipg this to be case the result would
be that every county in the peninsula might be-
come salt producing county,
His report, says the Detroit 4dcesttser, recon-
mcnds that if it Ia not desirable to restrict the
benefits OF the establishment Of the manufacture,
the State has an interest in stimulating the explo-
ration Of these lower grades, By offers Of bounty
II unsuccessful, the State would lose nothing. Il
successful, the payment OF the bounty would prove
the best investment the State made. Il it is
fact that there is vast salt basin underlying the
whole peninsula, at distance Of SEQ OF 800 feet,
those Eho are engaged in boring without satisfac.
tory results should take courage. The idea that
New York is dependent upon Michigan for the raw
material from which she manufactures her salt. j;
new one. Should we take it upon rs one o
these days to shut down upon her. the occupation
Of the salt boilers Of Onondaga would be gouc.-'
