~ Rnir.

The approaching fair we are glad
to say, is absorbing the pablo mind.
The people seem determined to
make it one of the most attractive
and creditable exhibitions ever held
in this section OF the State. Our
farmers and stock raisers manifest
a Jealous interest in its success and
the ladies are very active in deco
rating the Floral Hall and devising
contributions that viii make il q
credit to the skill and taste of the
sex and a source OF pride to the
county. The Directors have not
been idle. Stimulated by the hear.
" cooperation of the people and
influenced by a laudable desireto do
honor o. the industry and enter
prise Of cur glorious old county,
they have spared neither time nor
expense in making the Fair
Grounds attractive to visitors. The
amphitheatre is capable Of seating
at least two thousand people
and the comfort and convenience
of visitors has been studiously re
garded in its construction. Large
and commodious stables and stock
pens have been erected on the
grounds and arrangements made
for supplying stock with proven
der. The water facilities are excel
lent and visitors win be supplied
with this essential auid at any part
of the grounds. Floral Hall viii
be worthy Of the sex that holds its
honor in its keeping. The interior
of the Hall comprises two large
apartments, one for machinery and
one for ladies' handiwork, fruits,
flowers, dc, while two adjoining
rooms have been arranged for the
convenience and comfort OF sll
/ lady visitors. One of these is a
dressing room and all the applian-
ees ofthe toilet viii lc supplied by
an accommodating an polite wait
ing-maid. The other room is =
nursery where the little ones can be
! properly attended to. The Hall
win be beautifully decorated snd =
handsome fountain win throw up
its ''silver spray" in the center of
the Hall during the Fair.
The stock exhibition promises to
be the finest ever held in Giles
county. Several fine stables of hor-
ses from this and other States will
attend, among which are those OF
John Overton, of Nashville, James
z. Johnson, of Williamson and
Ben Harlan, of Maurv. Besides,

intervals with delightful music
The Directors also intend to intro
duce 3 great many features of
( amusement for the entertainment
