NoTE.-For Glass V, Fruit, there was some
splendid peaches several different varieties-
from Conncautr but were brought too late to
be acted on by the committee. The exhibitor

The Bald Red Winter Wheat exhibited by
Omar Gillett, is from seed originally obtained
by the late Robert Hutchinson, Though this
Association, from the Patent Office bearing
the name Of Tappahannock or Rappahannock
Wheat, which was never called white wheat
but II red wheat, is very fine in sample but poor

The aggregate receipts from the Fair for
membership fees, entrance fees, rents, advertis-
ing, admission cards, carriage passes and all
other sources, amounts to about $3.50. The
expenses, including improvements and general
assistance, such as providing needed police
force, watchmen, gate-keepers and such other

done, the Association would now be unembar-
rassed; consequently, an appeal for further aid
by subscription can not, in any sense, be con-

busily engaged in circulating story to
the effect that General Rosecrans, while
in command in the Army of the Kanawha,
made a personal attack upon General
Hayes because the latter was neglectful
of the welfare of his men. The story
was of course a lie, but the Democratic
papers circulated it briskly, and some of
their readers believed it too. General
Comfy, of the Ohio State Journal, how
ever, took the trouble to write to Gen
eral Rosecrans concerning it, and not
