cred into the presence of his God, thus verifying
the adage, that in the midst of life we are in
DEATH" Our brother is gone from and we bow
with humble submission, to the will of Him,
whose ways are inscrutable, and who doeth all
things well, therefore be it

A UGUSTA COUNTY FAIR.-If the people
N of Augusta County wish their next Fair to
be a success, they have it in their power to make
it so.
They must not forget however that it requires
money, and good deal of it to prepare the
grounds and buildings and to conduct the Fair
properly, and they must make up their minds to
provide what is necessary without delay
Much has been done and is doing to prepare
for the next Fair, and if Fifteen Hundred Dollars
can be furnished promptly the preparations can
be completed by the time appointed
We don't ask it as a gift, but as loan for
which we offer undoubted security, and we shall
be greatly surprised and disappointed if it is not
forthcoming.
