THE MONTGOMEaY COUNTY Ae-
RICULTURAL FAIR.

The Montgomery County Fair commenced
It's annual session at Rockville yesterday,
amer suspension Of eight years. Tho last
fair was held In 1861, since which time,
owing to the war and the subsequent stirring
events, no effort had been made to revive this
annual gathering. We are glad TO see that
the farmers and others In Maryland arc again
interesting themselves In these matters, not
only because OF the good effect they have
upon oil classes, but because IL Is an indica-

sober reaiization OF the OBJECT and duties
OF life after years OF war and the exciting
political issues which necessarily followed 1t.
That agricultural and all other peaceful In
terests should be swallowed up In gigantic
strife Ia not at all strange. On the contrary,
with the public mind stretched to the utmost
tension In eager anticipation OF stirring news
from the Held or forum, II would be impos-
sible to attract It to the mild and peaceful
paths OF agriculture.
But tho war has passed, a clear sky
breaks upon our country again, and It is
cheering to observe how speedily, like a field
after hurricane, 1t assumes Its cheerful
ness, rights up the bruised and bent stalks
and puts forth the buds Of prosperity.
The fair at Rockville, We are told, OPEN
most successfully. We are glad of this, aut
have no doubt that each succeeding yea
will be still more and more successful

Brother, Weep not for thy Companion.

Brother, weep not Tor thy companion
Weep not Brother, those bitter tears
Though cherries be thy home
Tho light that shone so bright for thee,
Now glistens across tho throne. 10
Weep not for the departed one,
Though her form lies cntombed in the sand,
Like the sivery mist on the heiotrope
Blooms another flower in that beautiful band
Weep not for the bride of thy youth,
For hard is thy yoke to bear
Cherish the thought, though dark be thy path,
0fone day meeting her there
Weep not, for arrayed in spotless robe,
Her spirit is waiting for thee
While her voice reechoes in accents Of love,
My dear ones prepare and follow me
Weep not when you dwell on the spring time
The sunshine that summer imparts
For bore with sweet flowers on Angels wings
Passed the bridal rose of thy heart
Weep not, for our days are gliding by,
We are swiftly drifting ashore
Our call to Gods bar may be next
Though she has passed before.
