THANKs.-We were placed under
obligations to number of our friends
in attendance at the Agricultural Fair
OH Friday last.
Miss Frank Gardner, of Freedom,
presented us with a splendid bouquet
containing a great variety of beautiful
and fragrant flowers, most tastefully
arranged in the form of pyramid
The piece deserved and received the
first premium.
From Mr.. Frank Ford we received
can of splendid tomatoes, prepared
and put up after new patent process
which he is extensively using in the
preservation of fruits. By this process
nearly all kinds of fruit are preserved
without the use of sugar, so as to re-
tain their natural form and flavor fol
almost any length of time. Mr.. Ford
had a splendid assortment of fruits
canned by this process on exhibition
at the Fair.
Mr. Daniel Bogue made us a pres
ent of the premium pumpkin, one o
the largest and best ever exhibited OIL
the Fair Grounds also, jug of ex
cellent cider vinegar. W. cannot sa,
whether the vinegar received the frs
premium or not, but better is seldom
seen. .ts4;

MANTUA CORRESPONDENCE

On Thursday asst, the Junior Sab
bath School held Pic Mic, in a beau
tiful grove, near the Railroad, one
mile south of the Center, on the land
of Henry Converse. A large number
of children were present, and, with
parents and friends, all participated in
the pleasures fthe joyous occasion and
spent the day in listening to addresses,
in singing and in the enjoyment OF
the good things with which the tables
were covered. Speeches were made
by o. c. Hubbell, Rev. o. Blake, Rev.
Mr.. Reed, Rev. D. NJ Stearns & Rev.
A. Atwater. The day was fine and
the happy children assembled in
groups, beneath the cool shade of the
beautiful NAPLES, or wandered about
in search of enjoyment, in Natures
great temple, the scene was suggestive
of the appropriateness of the motto,
God is Love" which was inscribed
on the badges worn on that occasion.
On the Sabbath evening following
the same school gave an exhibition in
the Disciples Church under the super
intendence of j. n. Johnson, consist
ing of Recitations, Essays, Dialogues,
and Dramatic performances, the whole
interspersed with singing by the
Choir of the Free Will Baptist church
under the charge of Mr.. f. P. Bard,
and music Miss Helen f. Cobb, on
the organ, assisted by Miss Nellie A.
Stlllman of Chester. An address was
delivered by Prof. Hill, of Hiram Col
lcge, which was listened to with at
tention by a crowded house. Anoth-
er performance of similar character
will be given before the close of the
school for the season. sL
For number of years past, an an
nual meeting has been held by the
Spiritualists in this vicinity, in a
beautiful grove, on the farm of Tru-
man Vaughn, about mile and half
eastwardly from Mantua Station.
The meeting for this year will be held
at that place on Sunday next, Sept. 26
Several speakers from abroad are ex-
pected to be present, and the public
are invited to attend.
The Base ball Clubs of Mantua and
the surrounding towns are now busy
in sending and accepting challenges
and an active campaign has been
opened, therefore the Forest City, the
Red Stockings, the Manhattan, and
the other crack clubs of the United
States may look out for their laurels,
for when the Eurekas and the Boan-
argos get fully aroused, then look out
for real thunder. A match game will
be played between the two last men,
toned clubs to-day, at The Rapids the
result of which will be given next
week. "VERITAs."

N.ricnIfuraI Fair.

The twenty-fourth annual Fair of
the Portage County Agricultural So
ciety took place on "Wednesday, Thurs
day and Friday, of last week. We
were able to spend but a very short
time on the grounds, andltherefore,
formed but an imperfect opinion OF
the exhibition. About the same
amount of interest was manifested i'll
the Fair, about the same number of
people were present, and about the
same number of entries were made,
as during the last two. or three years
past. The total number of entries
493. In the three departments OF
horses, cattle and sheep, the 7exhibi-
ton was very fine, and has not been
surpassed at any Fair of the. Society
for many years past. In the depart
ment of horses there were 70 entries
and the stock was very fine. In the
cattle department there were seventy
entries. and the show was very good !;
and in the department of sheep there
were 80 entries. = = o S...'.55., /, Z. 81 =,
In the ourthdepartmentt there were
80 entries in the class of swine and
25 in the class of fowls. In the latter
the show was very fine. T-ytI A =
In the fifth department there were
80 entries in the class Of cloth and
household manufactures, and A8 in the
class of cloths, millinery and orna-
mental needle work.
In thessixth department there were
13l entries-39 in the class of domes-
tic manufacture, 10 in class of fruits,
in the class of flowers, and 60 in the
class of grain and vegetables.
In the FseYenth department there
SO entries-29 in the class of iniscella-
neous manufactured articles, and 90
in the class of farming utensils, This
class was very well represented. ~ -
In the eighth department were but
entries, yiz,-2 of photographs
.verytine display, and one wax works.
In the ninth department there were
50 lentries-2 in the class of corn
[by the acre, % in the class OF
sweepstakes, II in the class of plow-
ing match, in the elassof Iniscella-
neous class, and 81 in the discretion
.ary class. j z lEi~l Z II
Too much praise cannot be given to
the officers OF the Society for the very
able manner in which they performed
their several duties. There was con.
siderable opposition to the project al
the first of the season, and it was on,
ly through their indefatigable yea
and energy that the twenty-fourtl
annual Fair. was so successful. Long
may they prosper. sSN -

HIRAM C0RTEsPoNDENcE.

There has been a new bell hung in
the College belfry which is the third
one since the building was erected;
the others having been broken, by
continual use, and tampering with by
mischievous boys of larger growth.
The bell recently put up is one hun
dred pounds heavier than either of
the others, and much better toned.
A large number of friends of Mr..
and Mrs. Jason Streator, gathered at
their residence, last Tuesday evening
to celebrate tin wedding, which was
a success, in all things pertaining to
such occasions, many presents were
made, some of useful, and some of
a ludicrous nature, one in particular,
created great merriment-a tin watch
with two tiny dolls FOR running works
which, considering the stubborn re-
sistance of the happy pair to the COM
mand to multiply, &C., was very ap-
propriate. A paregoric wedding may
be expected whenever the "logic Of
events will justify it.
Dir. Louis Dasilva, of the surgeons
staff of Maximillian, gave three lee
lures in this place last week, on
Wednesday Thursday and Friday eve
nings. The subject Wednesday eve
ming was MaXimillian and Mexico
AS might be expected, this lecture
was peculiarly interesting, from the
fact of the Dr's. intimate acquaintance
with Charlotte and understanding her
opinions and wishes regarding Maxi
millian's enterprise in Mexico, &c.
The Dr. is very severe on Napoleon,
as being the cause ofall MaXimillian's
misfortunes, and Carlotta's troubles.
A detailed account was given of the
execution of Maximillian, the DR..
being present as prisoner. 1t ap-
pears that those who were not execu-
ted, were sentenced according TO rank.
The Dr's. sentence being two years
hard labor on the road. Shortly after
commencing his work, the wife of the
Engineer was taken sick and pro-
nounced incurable, and his profession
al services were called in requisition
with assurances that if the woman
lived he should have his liberty but
if she died, he would be shot. Lucki-
ly the woman lived and he was sent
out of Mexico with the admonition, if
he ever returned he should certainly
suffer death. He claims to be an
Austrian by birth. a Spaniard by par
entage, Frenchman by education, a
Doctor by profession, and a Lecturer
from necessity. The subject OF the
second lecture was "The Jesuits," by
whom the speaker was thoroughly
educated at great expense, taught six
teen different languages, and provided
with means to travel extensively.
The third lecture was on "Ten years
among the Arabs" or comic lecture,
and was extremely interesting as well
as side-splitting. The lecturer has a
happy faculty of blending the most
serious acts, with the most ludicrous,
so that you shudder, and laugh alter
nately. The two last lectures were
under the auspices of the Alpha-Delta
society, for the benefit of which society
the Doctor will give free lecture OH
the 9th of October. Subject" Be.

1O4th RE- -UNIoN.-The surviving
members of the IO4th o. " 1. held
their annual reunion at the Opera
House in Akron, on the 10th. instant.
About two hundred members were
in attendance. General Reilly, who
had been announced to deliver an ad-
dress on the occasion, sent a letter
stating that it. was impossible for him
to attend. Resolutions were adopted
in regard to members, who had died
since the last fe-union. IA bounteous
repast prepared by, the citizens of
Akron at Phenix Hall was partaken
of, and a good time generally was
had. The next re- union was fixed at

The twentieth annual Fair of the
Ohio State Board of Agriculture was
held at Toledo last week, closing on
Friday, and is represented by those in
attendance as the most successful fair
ever held i'll the State, as well in the
display of animals and articles on
exhibition as in the number of per-
sons in attendance. We notice that
our enterprising townsmen, Messrs.
Merits Sc Riddle, as usual, carried off a
prize, having been awarded the firsc

SUIcIDE.-On Wednesday of last
week, George ". Atwood committed
suicide by cutting his throat with a
razor, at the residence of Mr.. Oliver
Burroughs, where he was boarding at
the time. He had several times be-
fore talked OF suicide, threatening to
destroy his own life, but his friends
had not believed that he harbored
thought of doing so, and had treated
his threats as mere idle talk. In the
forenoon of Wednesday he went de-
iberately to work to prepare for the
event. He sharpened up his razor,
went into the front yard, took off his
hat, lay down ON the grass and ap-
piled the fatal steel to his throat, sew
ering the jugular vein and causing
death in very few minutes. When
discovered, he was breathing his last,
and before assistance could be obtain
ed lie expired. Mr.. Atwood was
about sixty-eight years OF age. When
boy he had his left arm broken, and
some time after, the limb becoming
troublesome, amputation became nee
essary, and the arm was taken off
above the elbow, In 1851 he was the
candidate of the Wings for the Office
of County Treasurer, receiving the
vote of the party for the Office, but
was defeated. He had been a. man
occupying a respectable position i'll
society, and was highly esteemed by
his neighbors and acquainsances; but
of late years pecuniary losses had af-
fected his mind, and he had become
melancholy and moody, which is sup
posed to have been the cause of the
rash act.
AssEssoR.--The RAIDS had a meeting
for the nomination of a candidate for
Land Assessor, a few nights ago, at
which quite rich scene was enacted,
and the meeting adjourned without
making any nomination. After the
adjournment, a motion was made and,
in the midst of considerable confu-
sion declared carried, nominating
Isaac Brown for the Office by acclama-
ton. A correspondent furnishes us
with a graphic description of the
scene, but his account is so lengthy
and came in at so late an hour as to
compel us to defer its publication till
next week.

SOME may suppose that because the
council have been fixing sewers on
some of our streets, tailors will be
plenty and sewing cheap. Such is not
the case. Sewing can only be done
well and cheap by the New Singer
Sewing Machine. S. D. Metlin, of
Kent, is agent for the sale of the ma
chine in Portage county. The ma
chine may be seen at the shoe store of
T. G.. Sutherland in Ravenna.
