The Fair
i The Lincoln County Agricultu
. raj and Mechanical Society CLOSED
q very successful annual exhibi
ton on Saturday. The first three
days were miserable weather and
the attendance comparatively
small; but on Friday and Satur
day we had splendid Fall weather
and the amphitheatre was full
showing that nothing but the ex.
ceedingly unfavorable weather had
prevented an encouraging attend.
ance on the first days.
The entries in the various de-
partments were not 80 numerous
as was expected from last years
exhibition, but fully as much as
could have been looked for under
the discouraging circumstances we
have labored under for months.
Though the display was not SO
great, yet the articles exhibited of
ladies workmanship, and of the
mechanic arts showed great skill
and taste, and might have taken
premiums under much greater
competition. Some of the arti-
cles exhibited deserve far more
than a passing notice, and could
challenge the competition of the
State without fear. The ladies of
Tennessee showed during the war
that they could endure privation
and suffering, and perform we'll all
the duties required for themselves
or their families; now when the
opportunity is offered, they show
that they possess the same skill
and taste in the Beautiful" they
then developed in the "Useful and
the Good" We hope to see more
of their manufactures at future
Fairs. We hope also to see more
competition, and as a consequence
more spirit of improvement in the
departmental farming implements.
The show of animals of oil
kinds, too, was very good. One
thing we noticed that we consider
very encouraging for the future
the fact, that so many Of the anu
mails acre uery young. 1t indicates
to US that the people are paying a
great deal of attention to these
matters, that they have taken the
right start, and that our horses,
mules, cattle, sheep, &c. &c. are
going to be of great deal better
quality than they have been here
tofore. In all the classes animals
of very fine blood were exhibited,
and some OF them were models of
beauty. i
On every day during the Fair
there were contests of equestrian
ism, in which rare skill and grace
fulness were elected.
The tournament was earnestly
contested-Capt. Little, of this
place, bearing of the premium
Miss Mollie Carrot was crowned
Queen.
The comic masquerade con |
vulsed the audience with laughter.
1t could not have been BETTER
Mr.. c. S. Wilson, the "carpet-
Dagger" carried off the premium.
The exhibition concluded with
an address by Mr.. j. G. Bright,
which was happily adapted to the
occasion. 1t was excellently con-
structed and faultlessly delivered,
and we congratulate the speaker
and the Society on the success of
the effort.
We hope to be able in our next,
to publish an official statement of |
the premiums and certificates a.

required; but among the multiplicity OF

absence of judges Brown and Harrison,
no session was held. We regret TO learn
that Judge Brown Is just recovering
from severe and pTotracted Illness,
and it is doubtful whether he well be

NEW HEARsE.-our attention was
called last evening, to a new hearse
just brought from Philadelphia by
Messrs. Friend & Son, undertakers
and furniture dealers, on Main street.
It is certainly the finest thing of tho
kind we have ever seen in this city.
In all It's appointments, in its construc-
ton and finish, it approaches perfec-
ton we do not believe has ever been
exceIled in this country. Without at
tempting to enter into minute de.
scription of this splendid piece OF
workmanship, We will slate that 1t is
furnished with sets of beautiful plumes
and crosses. elegant plated lamps; the
sides and doors are made of heavy
French plate glass, while the painting
and iron work equal that seen on the
very finest class of private or public
vehicles. The Messrs. Friend had their
hearse on exhibition last evening at
the carriage repository of Ed. Young,
corner of Main and John streets.

son Of William Curry, WAS arrested at

iron, belonging to the Railroad Com

Curry TO the lookup, and the matter

Police Court this morning. The idea
of being taken to prison seemed TO hor-
rify tho young man as he had to be
literally forced along, at the same time
