Kencsha County Agricultural Fair

Some differences of opinion seem to have
existed as to the most proper time of holding
the Kenosha county Fair. At the meeting
held in Agricultural Hall on Wednesday, the
18th inst, it was resolved to hold the annual
Fair on the 18th, 14th and 18th days of Octo
Der, 1868. Subsequently to the holding of
this meeting, we were requested not to pub
fish the bills announcing the time, until fur
Their consultation we delayed until Saturday
evening last, as requested, but in the mean
time, having received no new instructions, we
proceeded with the printing of the notices.
The question therefore, we suppose may be
regarded as fully settled, that the Fair will
be held on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thurs
day, the 18th, 18th and 18th of October
We trust the farmers and mechanics of the
county generally, will resolve to make the
Fair credit and an honor to the good old
county of Kenosha. We have within the
limits of the county sufficient varieties in the
agricultural, mechanical, horticultural and
other departments of industrial labor, to
make up as large and attractive an exhibition
as any other county in the State. Our Fair
grounds are pleasantly and conveniently To-
Gated, and afford all proper conyeniences for
the uses to which they are applied. All that
is needed is energy and activity on the part
of the people of the county. This we assured
ly hope il will have.

Senator Howe,s Reoention.

Senator Howe of this State having arrived
in this city last week, on visit to the fami-
ly of Col. Howe, it was resolved in consider
alton of his distinguished services in the
Senate of the United States, to give him
public reception. Accordingly, it was ar
ranged to escort him from the residence of
Col. Howe, to Simmons Hall on Monday eve
ming last. The Tanners Climb of this CITY
fully uniformed proceeded at eight O'Clock in
the evening to tue stopping place of Senator
Howe, where they received him with hearty
cheering, and escorted him to the Hall.
Simmons Hall was filled to overlooking with
highly intelligent and respectable audience,
many finding it impossible to gain admis-
sion to seats. We are pleased to remark that
goodly number OF ladies grsced the occa-
sion
Senator Howe was introduced to the audi
ence by Hon. A Van Wyck in an eloquent
speech. Sen. Howe reviewed the history of
parties, and the action of Congress during the
war of the rebellion, -proving conclusiyely
that the Republican party were the true
friends of the Union, during the conflict with
armed treason, and that its policy had been
pre-emlnently on the side of hu-
manity and of fidelity to the life of the
nation.
The Glee Club contributed some excellent
vocal music for the occasion which was re-
ceived with marked favor by the assembled
multitude. The campaign is now fairly in
augurated in this city, and it is earnestly
hoped that there will be no relaxation in the
good cause, but that the interest will increase
IN vigor until November next.

Young Democracy.

fair sample of the young Democracy,
| was exhibited in this city on Monday evening
last, while the Tanner club was marching
through the streets. From fifty to seventy
| five boys, great and small, followed the pro-
cession and thanking it on both sides. A con-
| siderable number were barefoot, and not
few it is said displayed dingy colored flags,
protruding from their rent pants. They APP
peared to be chiefly of the Seymour and Blair
stripe, and kept up an incessant hurrahing
for the democratic candidates In al. these
respects, these hopeful boys had natural
right to appear; it was but a part of their
training, to fit them to vote ehe democratic
ticket, We have said the boys were mostly
OF democratic paternity perhaps few Re-
publican lads may have been drawn into
their ranks; if so, the Democracy should be
pleased, for this is just the way to make
Democrats of Republican boys.
But the boys were not content with noisy
demonstrations, and the use of vulgar cpl
thets; they INDUCED their propensity by
throwing stones at the procession, injuring
several persons, smashing transparencies and
torch lamps. This stone-throwing business,
at first view, might seem to be inexcusab&e,
but how are the boys to be educated in the
use of the shillalah, withdrawing and other
practices, so as to be the equals of the eighth
warders in Chicago, the jewellers at the
g Five Points," the sixth ward in New York
and other democratic strongholds, unless
they are allowed to practice in their younger
days? DinaocrGtic gintlemen, Of course want
their sons politically educated, equal to their
fellows in the large cities. 1t is said there
are persons who assert that repetition of
this kind of political schooling, will not be |
permitted here. This is a pretty free coun- |
try, but there are after all, limitations to |
some kinds of practices; however, the right |
of the boys to throw stones at the people, |
and to smash things generally, may hereafter
be seriously questioned.

Death Of Rev. DIR Bishop.

The Chicago papers announce the death OF
Rev. II. n. Bishop, he died in Paris on the
31st of August. Rev. Mr.. Bishop was the
rector of St. Matthews Episcopal church in
Kenosha four years. From this place he went
to Chicago in 1856, and took charge OF a new
organization - st Johns Church, on Union
Park. A few months ago he accepted call
to Cincinnati, but before entering upon his
ministry in that city, he sailed for Europe
with the intention of spending some time in
travelling on the Continent. While in Switz-
erland he received a sunstroke he was at
once removed to Paris, with the view of OBJ
trining the medical skill of that city, but TIL e
means employed proved unavailng.
D.. Bishop was much esteemed by clergy
men and members of all christian denomina-
tions. He possessed but little of the spirit
of exclusiveness he mingled fully with sin
cere christians of every name, for the -ad-
yancement of the religious interests of the
people. He recognized and held in fellow
ship all of the evangelical faith regarding
mere ceremonial observances, of secondary
Importance. In the death of such man,
true christianity suffers a great loss. His
memory will be long cherished by multitudes
who had the pleasure of his acquaintance.

The Mass Meeting Yesterday
and last evening.

The meetings Of yesterday afternoon and
evening occurring SO near the time ofmakine
up eur paper for the press, we can only give
summary account of them. About noon
people began to arrive from The country, the
first noticeable event was the arrival of a COM
pany of tanners in uniform, preceded vii
music from Salem. An arrangement had been
made to delay the leaving of the cars on the
Kenosha and Rockford road, SO as to allow
persons from the country, to remain during
the afternoon meeting, and return on the cars.
But unfortunately the arrangement was made
too late, to have the notice given in country
towns. The people therefore from the west
ern towns, came in mostly by private convey
ances. Between two and three O'Clock p. M.
the meeting was called to order in the Park.
where a speakers stand had been erected ;
Judge VanWyck made a brief Introductory
address in his usual ilicitous manner. Hon
Matt. ii. Carpenter, who had been advertised
to speak in the afternoon, telegraphed that
he could not be present until evening. Sena-
tor Howe being present, made one of his
best efforts on this occasion. He was followed
by Hon. Halbert e. Paine, in an able and tell
ing speech. The Glee Club gave some string
music which was received with much APP
plause.
The meeting in the afternoon was large
the largest probably of any political meeting,
which has ever been held in the Park
1t had been arranged to hold the meeting
in the evening on Market Square, but owing
to the uncomfortable GOODNESS of the wealth.
er, the meeting was held in Simmons Hall.
1t was ofcourse found impossible to accommo-
date the multitude, large numbers were
obliged to go away. Hon. Matt. Ii. Carpenter
occupied the platform in speech of unsur-
passed eloquence and force OF logic Those
who were not CONVINCED, must lave braced
themselves against Ehe reception of the
truth. After the close of Mr.. Carpenters
speech, Mr.. Sleeper of Chicago made short
address. The meetings both in the afternoon
and evening were of the most enthusiastic
kind. 1t is TO be regretted that so many who
desired to hear Matt. Carpenter in the even
ing, were obliged to forego that privilege for
the want Of room. A Hall twice the size of
Simmons Hall, could have been well filed We
have no time to speak of the grand torch
light procession in the evening, as well as
many other matters of interest pertaining to
the meeting.

Racine County Agricultural Fair.

We again call attention to the Racine coun
ty Fair to be held at Burlington, on the 23d
Oath and 18th days of September "wednesday,
Thursday and Friday. The Fair is open to
the counties of Kenosha. Walworth and Wau-
kesha. The total amount of premiums to be
awarded is nearly $1,000. A letter from the
Secretary of the Society gives US to under
stand that no possible effort is being spared
to make the annual exhibition one of the
most complete in all its departments of any
heretofore held in that county. The officers
of the Society are active business men, and
are laboring earnestly to have all the arrange
ments rightly adjusted. Farmers and me-
chanies of Kenosha county are cordially invit-
ed to participate in the exhibition of such al
ticles as they choose. We trnst the invita-
ton will be accepted by large numbers in
this county. Burlington is convenient of ac-
cess by the people in the western part of our
county; also the eastern part of the county
will find good railway connection by way of
Racine. The trains from Racine to Burlington
will carry freight free, and passengers to the
Fair at half price. Our farmers and mechan-
les will find it advantageous to attend the
Fair; the people Of one county are stimulated
into activity by what is being done by the
people of another. Unquestenably the peo-
pie of Racine county will reciprocate and
turn out in good numbers to the Kenosha
county Fair.
