Wisconsin, State FAIR.

The Eighteenth Annual Exhibition
of the Wisconsin State Agricultural
Society was held On the Cold Spring
grounds, ut Milwaukee, during the
week commencing Sept. %.
Notwithstanding the weather was
lowering the first three days, the Fair
was success financially, and it was
still more Of a success as an exhibition
of the products of the farm In com.
parison with the Fair OF 1870 it was
richer in the excellence of its cattle,
sheep, swine and fowls The show of
swine, particularly, has probably never
been cxcclled in the West. The build
ing of additional pens for hogs was con-
timed until Thursday morning. The
great number Of hogs brought TO this
fair was chiefly owing to the special
premiums offered 10y Plankinton & Ar
mour, Layton 4 Co., JAS. I. Wooley,
L. Fnriau, and Nankirk & McGeogh.
The show of horses, considered in all
respects, was rather better than that of
last year. The same may be said of
agricultural machinery, III which some
marked improvements We're observed.
The vast protusion and fine quality
of grains, vegetables and fruit far eX-
ceeded any display OF those products
heretofore made IN this State, and com
pared most credltably with the same
departments IN any far ever held IL the
Western States. Horticulture-that
is to say more especially plants and
flowers, was well represented, but not
remarkably full, and nothing to what it

100000 Pocketed by the Ring.
From the New York Times, ed.
In yesterday issue of the Times was
printed a list of the vouchers which
James Watson, deceased, late County
Auditor, took from the Comptroller's
Office. The deep anxiety manifested
recently by some one to get possession
of other vouchers Of a similar charac-
ter, indicated very clearly that these
papers were the evidence of some gross
and monstrous fraud, and perhaps of
some fearful system of forgery. That
such was in truth the case has been
brought to light by the publication Of
these vouchers Among them occurred
the name of G.. l.. Schuyler, for sums
amounting in the aggregate to 1863,
( OBJ, for lumber furnished to the city.
/ Mr.. Schuyler is well known lumber
merchant, having large yards at the
foot of ThirtY-tfth street, East River,
and his friends yesterday morning came
to reproach him for having sullied his
honorable name by such a piece of ras-
cality. He assured them that it was
altogether a fraudulent statement, and
I that his receipts from the city did not,
to the best of his recollection, exceed
$50, 900, and that his claims against
! the city for three years work did not
quite reach that figure. BY their adj
vice he prepared the following state.
ment:
10 the Editor Of tic Nclr Iorh Times d.

your and other city papers this morn
ing as having been surreptitiously OBJ

the late County Auditor Watson, | find
that | figure as having received ut vari-
Gus times the enormous sum of SIG3, r.
OBJ, and being unwilling to rest, even
for u day, under the suspicion of hay
ing consplred to defraud the city,
make haste to deny utterly all knowl-
edge of the vouchers referred to, and
to state the exact facts III regard to the
payments made to or for me by the
corporation. On referring to my books,
| find that the first of such payments
was made in January, 1868, from which
| date up to the 22d of June, lS7O--a pc
/ rod of NCarlY two and a half Tclrs--I
! have received from them the sum of
