Abraham Lincorn.

"Porte Crayon" visited President Lincoln
just before the battle Of Balls Bluff, and
writes Of him as follows, in the September
number Of Hsrper's Monthly:
We found him in bis Office, and alone
On our entrance he called a clerk, expedited
some business he had on hand, and then
turned to converse with us. This he did
with an air Of honest and unreservcd af
liability, and with one leg over the arm ol
bis chair. His personal appearance was not
80 awkward or uDgainly a. i had expected.
HIS face was hard and angular, hut lighted
with an expression of benevolence and sin.
cerity that warmed the heart nor was his
manner wanting in native dignity.
There was something in his
appearance and manner which touched me
deeply. aud warmed my heart toward him.
Jailed from comparative obscurity to take
che chief place in Government which
seemed doomed TO speedy and hideous de
structlon, 1t appeared not so much posi-.
ton OF power and honor that he was called
to occupy, but rather the place Of chief
victim to the fury Of a trescherous and
bloody revolution. instead Of the support
and encouragement which he needed and
meekly asked from all true men, the howls
and exeerations Of his open and armed
enemies were not so bitter as the sneers and
revllngs OF the factions among those Of
whose cause he was the chosen head. All
unarmed and unprepared, perhaps unfit for
he vast responsibilities thus thrust upon
bin, he exhibited always so much of honest
and earnest simplicity--so anxious and sin.
cere desire to fulfill properly the duties of
his great ofice--so much meekness under
wrong and insult, such readiness to ack nowl-
edge error or failure, such total, abbegation
OF self, that it seemed impossible for any
true man not to yield him the fullest con-
fidence and sympathy. Although some
times differed with the President 10 bis Do
litical views and action, l never met Mr..
Lincoln personally that these friendly senti
ments were not warmly revived.

The Belmont Independent Fair.

| The annual fair of the Belmont Independ.
ent Agricultural Society will be held at the
town of Belmont, over on the Central Ohis
Rlil R}ad, commencing on Tuesday, Sept.
18th, and closing on Thursday, the goth. =
The premium list, as usual is very liberal,
and embraces Live Stock of all descriptions,
aud all articles in Agriculture, Horticulture,
and the Mechanic Arts. The awarding com
mittees sppointcd are judiciously distribu-
ted, and calculated to give satisfaction to
exhibitors and visitors at the fair.
The officers for this year are President
A. 9. Dantord; Vice President, Emmett
Wright; Secretary, o. G. Metcalf; Treas
urer, T. E. McKisson; Directors-J. B.
SHE, Thomas Lodge, John Lisle, Watson
Pryor, VIM. Armstrong, VIM. w. Gregg,
Benz. Bailey. Oliver Taylor, Joseph II.
Close. Chief Marshal, Jos. H. Close.
Concerning the Society and the prospects
for the fair this autumn, the managers say !:
For the information of those who have
never attended this Fair, it may be proper
to state that the Fair Ground of the Belmont
Independent Agricultural Society is located
near Belmont and less than one eighth of
mile from Belmont Station, on the Central
Ohio Railroad. 1t is in Il central position,
in the midst off rich, we'll cultivated, thick
ly populated and healthy region of country
The ground is elevated and generally rolling,
is well watered, and possesses all the advan-
tages necessary to adapt it to the purpose
to which it has been devoted.
It's near proximity to Belmont will be
gleatly to the advantage of those who wish
to attend the fair. While they will have
only reasonable charge to pay for accom-
modations, they will save the cost of hacks,
cars, &c, to convey them to and from the
ground.
This Fair from its origin has been the
Fair of the People, and has met with de-
gree of success that its most sanguine friends
could not have predicted for it.
The public interests it has awarded, the
large and increasing numbers who have an-
nually attended it, the multiplication of the
number and variety of the articles exhibited
in the Agricultural. Horticultural, Floral
aud Mechanical Departments, together with
an Improvement in the number Of Live Stock
exhibited from yesrIto year, has caused the
Board of Directors to meet the public de-
mand, to enlarge the Fair Ground, build
additional stalls for the accommodation of
Stock. plant shade trees, and make other
improvements at considerable expense.
which add to the beauty of the place, as well
as contribute to the enjoyment of visitors
The present indications are that this Fair
will be more largely attended the coming
fall than ever before; and while the forege-
ing preparations have been made mainly 10
view Of this fact. another object has been to
retain the high character which the public
has awarded it.
