a Word TO orr Fricnds.

Nh. EDITOR: IWish to say few words
to our friends about the approaching Fair.
First, the Premium List: Although We
intend trying to make the list fdll aud
comprehensive, still we wish to say we
hope no article will be kept away because
it is not in our list. Bring anything and
everything calculated to add c. the in
tsrsst of the Fair, and we lltry to give
every article the proper notice and at
tention, whether contained in the premi-
um list or not.
Next; We wish you TO remember to
come TO the Fair. Come the first day.
You need not expect 3 few of US to stay
on the Fair Grounds two days expecting
somebody to como the third day, in the
afternoon. The Directors were blamed
last year for not holding on two or three
days; yet ths very persons who blamed
them most, stayed at home until las they
thought the last day of the Fair. but
were disappointed by finding the Fair
over. We hope such will not be the case
again. We intend to make the best ar
rangements our limited means will allow,
and hope the people will turn ont prompt
ly, and entirely; We want to see every
man in the county at the Fair. and every
woman and child, each bringing some
thing to add to the interest Of the coca
sion, Come and bring what you have,
and zee what your nsighbOrs have, and
what they are doing. There is no reason
why We ehouId not have really good
Fair, and q good time generally. We can
see all our nsigbbOrs aud all THAR 6pe
stock; can show our oWn 6ne animals
and nice articles; can form many aeW
acquaiHtspcRs: end hear some of the
best orators Of the StAts talk. Who,
then. cannot yell afford to spend two or
three days attending the Fair.
No one who really knows what he is
about win stay away. Then, We say,
come one, come all. Bring your animals
and other articles tbs first day Of the
Fair. 80 that We. can, have, he proper
time to enter aud arrange everything. aud
We win do our best to give general satfs-
faction. r: H. ABRAHAM.

moderate inquiry, which was for the most part
however, confined to previous purchasers, who
wanted small lots for filling up round lists, and to
some few others, who had confidently calculated
upon very heavy reduction in prices. The move
ment during the forenoon, though Of an exceed
ingly irregular character, resulted nevertheless in
sales of 1000 bales, but receipt of Liverpool tel

ately ceased and business has been suspended

The Com@sreiaFs money article says that the

ser the late briM depression; the decline has en-
abled some of the leading operators to buy in st
4 lower price. and those Who we're the leaders in
the long interest this morning the largest par
shasers.
The extreme ease Of the money market enables
operators to carry any amount of stock they may
desire to hold, and the continued large earnings
Of the roads. with the prospect Of unusually heavy
freight Of breadstuns resulting from liberal
harvest, encourage the strong bullish tone to the
market.
