The Next Ohio State Fair.


The Ohio State Board Of Agricul-
ture was in session last week, aud
blocked out the programme for the
next State Fair. Some radical chan
ges are agreed upon, both in the list
Of PR p''sms offered ana In the WORK
ing order ofthe Fair.
Competition is open to tho world
instead of the States by which Can
ada exhibitors may ccme in on the
same terms as those of our own State.
The entrance fee is abolished, so
that persons may enter, without
charge, as many different articles as
they may own, in any Department.
Admission tickets, 25 cents each, as
heretofore.
Awarding committees will report
only to the Superintendent of their
particular Department, and not to the
Secretary, as heretofore.
The Recording Secretary will have
entire charge of the entry books, and
the premiums will bo paid through
him. In the Department of cattle,
all thorough breds are ranged in one
class, so that Shorthorn, Devon, Here
ford, etc, must compete in one ring.
In the Sheep Department, the
Broadcloth class and the class Of
Middle Wool-not South Down-are
stricken out, az also the premiums
for secured wool.
In Swine, the sweepstakes premi-
um is S25.
In Poultry, the premium for larg.
est exhibitions is made SO.
In Fancy Needlework, etc, the ar
ticlo must have been executed since
the last State Fair.
For + lax, s25, $40 and s5 are of
fered.
For best specimen of Drain Tile
$50.
Premiums on Grain, and Seed in
creased from SO to s5, and second
premium from 81 to So.
In Flowers, the whole list of Pro-
fessional is stricken out.
The premiums on Fruits have been
greatly increased and new classes ad.
ded.
The State Fair is to commence on
Monday, October l4th, and the entry
books to close on Monday night
AS the Fair is to be held on the
grounds last used at Dayton, OF
course everything will be ready to
move off at the time. So the matter
rests with the people, (under the ru-
lings of Providence what shall come
of the next Ohio State Fair.-O. +.

Sewerage Of Paris Frightful Pas
sage Through a Sewer at Birk-

enhead.
The total length Of tho sewers In
Paris amounts now to 20t miles
The Builder, in giving n sketch Of
their distribution, describes tho mode
in which sewers'ate clcanaed. Man
ual labor being inadequate, boat
Cor a chariot running on rails, in the
smaller scwois) lis provided with a
vertical, board, which exactly fits the
section of the canal sof the sewer.
This is pierced with two holes and
placed at the head Of the boat, which
is carried along by the current and
pushes before il any solid mattcr.
The obstruction offered by the board
produces an eddy, which helps on
ward the boat in les tura, aud with
it, as is found by experience, the de
posit below, at a rate of about two
feet per ssocoud. Tho quantity Of
water running through the large
sewers varies, ,:but Is gonorly 40 feet
per second-a sufficient velocity, Il is
said, to carry along stones as large as
an.osg. Ono Of the chief objects in
view is to stir up tho deposit, which
is often "viscious," aud which will
not be corricdIon at all otherwise. 1t
appears that great efforts are be-
ing made to carry tho sewer on the
left side Of tho River Seine, and the
contents Of the B,erro, a river, over
the Seine, and then into il at Asnicres,
several miles away.
Very different from this boat pass
ago through Partisan sewer was the
compulsory and, hurried voyage Of
two men on piece of timber, who
were impclled to forward tho other
day in a similar subtcrranoan stream
at Birscnhead, opposite Liverpool
The sewer through which this ex.
traordinory passage was performed is
that which some time ogo construct
cd for the drainage of Bidston
Marsh. Tho two men, named Thorn
ton and Christian, wont into it to look
for some defect that had been report
ed, and while they were makig the re-
quisite exploration, the water from
one Of the craving docks was let into
sewer, and the two poor fellows at
once began thcir rapid voyage to the
Morpcth dock. Christian managed
to stay himself by some means when
he had got about quarter of q mile,
but Thornton went the whole distance
Of two miles and n half, and was
washed through tho outlet into the
dock. He was picked up in an cx-
hausted state and taken to tho Birk-
enhcad hospital.

Spring Hints.

Put not of till next month what
can be done this. A day gained now
may prove to be of great value next
month. Get everything ready for
spring work, and whatever we do, let
us do it with all our might aud with
willing hands. Let plans for the
seasons work be completed, and a
correct account kept of all operations
on the farm from month to month,
so that at the close of the year, we
may be able to derive some benefit
BY Che experience Of the coming "ssed

Benedict Arnold a Rolio,

The New Haven Palladium says:-
We have the identical sign that used
to hang out over the store of Bene-
dict Arnold when he traded in Water
street in this city, and we present be-
low copy Of it as near as a sign can
be copied on paper. tbs about three
and a half feet long and two and a
half feet broad. The sign is black,
and the letters look at first glance, as
if put on with yellow paint; but on
close inspection, the are discovered to
be guilt.
The sign was found some time since
in the garnet of the house in which
Arnold lived Opposite his store) aud
is now the property, we learn, Of Jao-
OBJ T. Hotchkiss, who has permitted
it to be deposited in the Museum
We have followed the style, propor-
tions and painting of the letters on
the sign very noarly. There was one
popularity which we could not well
initiate, viz: tho dots of tho is in the
motto, which on the sign are inverted
commas instead Of nero dots. 1t
will be seer that there is no point be-
tween the name and the occupation.
Both sides Of the sign are almost pre-
cisely alike. The motto, "Sibi Toti-
que" is translated shus--"For him
self-for the whole, or "for all" The
first sentence is most decidedly ap-
propriate to the man, who was for
himself in all things.

When Arnold was in London, we
arc at this time unable TO tell. He
was engaged when here in the trade
of horses and mules to the West In
dies, and it is probable that his visit
to London was while he was in bust
ness, though that is mere conjecture.
He was born iu Norwich, in this State
in January, 1850, and was apprentice
ed to an apothecary in that city, and
a troublesome apprentice he was too.

WHITTIER oN nIMsELF.

n his new volume "The Teut on the Beach
and other Poens,n whittier gave the following
portrait Of himself;
And one there was, dreamcrbfkn,
who, with a mission to fuial,
Had left the Muses' hsunts to turn
The crank Of an opinion-mlll,
Making his rustic reed OF song
weapon IN the war with wrong,
Yoking the fancy to the breaking-plough
That beam-dcep turned the soil for truth to spring
and grow.
Too quiet seemed the man 70 ride
The winged Hippograff Reform
Was his voice from sldo to side
To pierce the tnmult Of the stormi
A slleat shy, peace lowing man,
He seemed no nery partisan
To hold his way against the public frown,
The ban Of Church and state, the fierce mob's
bounding down,
For while be wrought with strenuous will
Tho work his hands had found TO do,
Heheard the itful music stlli
OF winds that out Of dream-land blew,
The din about him could not drown
what the strange voices whispered down,
Along his task -ield welred professions swept
The visionary pomp Of stately phantoms stepped.
The common air was thick with dreams
He told them to the toiling crowdj
Such music as the woods and streams
Sang in his car no sang aloud;
In still, shut bays, on windy eapcs,
He heard the call Of beckoning shapes,
And, as the gray old shadows prompted him,
To homely molds of rhyme he shaped their le-
gends grim.
He rested now his weary hands,
And lightly moralized and laughed,
As tracing the shifting sands
burlesque OF his paper craft,
He saw the careless waves o'errun
His words as time before had done,
Each days tide-water washing clean away,
like letters from the sand, the work ofyestcrday.
