Under the Immediate superintcndenCe of
the efficient Board of Directors of the
Montgomery County Agricultural Society,
the grounds have been put in admirable
order, and nothing has been omitted on
their part to promote the convenience and
comfort of exhibitors and visitors.
The Office Of the Board was opened at the
Fair Grounds this morning, where Mr..
klippart, the efficient and obliging Secre-
tary, will he found, with his assistants, to
attend TO the calls and applications of all
who may have business TO transact at his
Office.
There is already on exhibition large
amount of splendid stock, including horses,
cattle, sheep, hogs, &c. The entries of ag-
ricultural implements, mechanical produce
tions, articles ofdomestic manufacture, &c,
are very numerous.
The various halls, for the exhibition of
Fine Arts, Machinery, Fruits, &C., are rap
idly filling up, and the display promises to
be both varied and attractive.
Most of to-day was occupied by the
various committees and exhibters in ar
ranging articles in the several halls for ex-
hibition. A large number of additional
entries were made in the different depart
ments. The attendance was quite large for
the first day, but we may look for the
crowd on Wednesday and Thursday.
We learn that the following prices of
admission and regulations have been fixed
upon by the Board: H

From present indications, the State Fair
promises to be a complete success, not
the very discouraging cir
which prevented its being held
1t the time first announced. A very large
attendance Is anticipated during the re-
naming days of the exhibition. We learn
hat all the railroads leading to the city
ave put on extra trains, and that ample
accommodations have been make to carry
he people TO and from the Fair. We may
ook for lively times from this until the
