.,on Of the combined New England
s.otss A selection from the horses, cat
,le sheen. manufactures, and agrlcultu-
.ol nrodncts of the six states ought to
make an exhibition worthy OF any sec
ton or country in the world. Spring
sold 10 making extensive preparations
nr tbe Fair, and the indications of sue
cess are very promising. 1t is already
,,IIv demonstrated that Vermont, If she
chooses can make showing on an oc-
cosion of the kind, Of which she need
not be ashamed in comparison with
those of her sister states and it is hoped
abe will exert herself to maintain her
reputation at this first New England
exhibition. Our state election, unfortu-
nately, occurs on the first day Of the
Fair, but exhibitors from this state we
trust will be able to arrange it so as to
cast their votes here Tuesday morning,
without materially interfering with the
Fair. At all events vote first, and ex-
hibit afterwards.
