WE visited the Skating Rink, for
the first time, on Thursday evening,
and confess to having formed no ade-
quate idea Of its attractiveness to all
who admire grace and elegance of at
titude and notion. or the fancy
dresses we can give no ineligible de-
scription, and therefore refer the read
er to the costumes of the age Of Chiv-
airy and to the legends of the Indian
tribes. The effect upon the spectators
was most agreeable, and they seemed
to enjoy the occasion as much as the
more active participants In the Gear
nival." We are. satisfied that the
Rink Is an Institution to be en-
Outraged, because it promotes grace
of motion, Is conducive to health,
and Is a. source of amusement free
from the dangers incident to places OF
resort from which ladies are excluded
and where young men too often take
vice and ruin "in thern.p

WE are gratiiled to learn that a
Farmers Club has been organized in
District No. 10. The officers are w.
j. Sheron, President; Geo. Chamb-
liss, Recording Secretary, and E. l..
Williams, Corresponding Secretary.
Every organization of this sort
heralds the increasing interest Of ag-
riculturists in q vocation the most inn
portant of all Others, to the well-be-
ing of mankind-a vocation followed,
heretofore, with less skill, and knowl-
edge ofits elementary principles than
any other pursued by our people,
But with an awakened interest in
the subject, we may expect enlight-
eminent, zeal and progress in agricul-
ture which is the ground work of in
dividual and national prosperity, and
which demands for its successful
prosecution, a more varied Knowledge
than any other industrial pursuit.

A1ruo,ou the Tobacco Fair. e

ALTHOUGH the Tobacco Fair, to
come off on Wednesday next, was de-
termined upon after the sale of much
tobacco that would have competed
for the premiums, we believe there Is
still enough to make the competition
active, as well as to sustain the char
acter Of Clarksville tobacco, so long
established in the markets of the
world. We learn that active prepar-
ations are making to do full justice to
the occasion, feature Of which Will
be the dinner, at Franklin Hall, for
the benefitof the Orphans. The lady
managers will spare no pains to get
up q feast worthy of the cause to
which they have devoted themselves
with so much spirit and zeal. We
hope the Fair and the feast will, both,
be as successful rs the most sanguine
anticipate.
Members of the Press are cordially
invited to be present. .ga
