SECOND DAY.

Yesterday morning at AN early hour, the
crowded thoroughfares leading to the Fair
Ground geve an evidence of additional ar
rivals to participate in the pleasures of at
tending great State Fair.
By ten o'clock the crowd within the gates
numbered at least eight hundred and large
additions were made as the day advanced.
Entries continued To be made, and the as
sistant Secretaries had but little time for
rest-and just here we will state that the en-
try boks will not be closed till Thursday
night.
AT II O'Clock, after prayer by the Rev.
Chas. G. Adrews, DIR. j. o. Wharton, Presi-
dent of the Association, introduced Col. C..
Z. Hooker, who delivered the opening adj
dress in his usual elegant style-telling the
people come wholesome truths and Offering
some excellent advice on the subject of
farming-recommendin greater attention
to the raising of grain and less dependence
on cotton, which is now drug in the mar
ket, with few fany buyers. After which
the one mile race, best three In five, for the
Association purse of 500, not less than
three entries, was announced. Messrs. II.
b. Bostwick, z. B. Doherty, w. Yerger, jr.,
and Il. +. McGill, were the committee.
Three entries were made: "Dixon Bill"
ny DR.. Parb cry, - by Ed. Bailey, -
by G, c. Cranberry.
In the first heat, "Dixon Bilr' distanced
his competitors and therefore won the race,
coming in at an easy gait, time not stated.
Large additions were madeto the machinery

Capt. Bustamante, as usual, has an indcfi-
mite display, having entered over a hundred
articles.
Coleman's Mill attracted the universal
attention it deserves.
Large additions are also made TO the de-
partment OF farm products and vegetables
IN the Fancy Work Department, there is
enough and to spare. There is no conceiy-
ed article of embroidery or needle-work
that would interest the mind, but NAV be
found here.
About thirty shirts have been entered for
DIR. Wharton's special premiam, made by
every variety of people; one lady sixty
years old is compelling, and various others
possessing peculiarities of age, deformIty,
ETC.. are in the list.
A patchwork quilt by boy nine years
old, is one of the novelties.
The department for preserved fruits, jeI-
lies, jams. candies, bread, etc, Is receiving
large additions.
