BUTTER,
| The center of attraction at the fair yes
terday was around the stand containing
some sixty cases of butter, entered for the
special premiums, among which is the
| splendid stove Fashion, offered by
Hoxsie & DePue, for the best five pounds
butter. This was the finest display ever
seen in East Tennessee, and required some
hours for the committee to decide. Mr. L
Tomlinson, of Hawkins county, got the
first prize, in all, worth about $50. We
hope the liberality of Messrs Hoxsie &
| DePue will meet with that success worthy
of their enterprise.
| In Mr.. T's. premiums are included pair
of elegant butter knives, manufactured
expressly for the purpose, of coin silver, by
Hope and Miller, the popular jewelers. and
manufacturers of silver ware. These
knives can be seen on exhibition in their
collection, which is very fine. These
gentlemen have acquired a reputation for
Excellence in their line which is widely
known, and which they we'll deserve.
Their very liberal premium was eminent
ly appropriate and the winner should not
suffer them to be used on butter inferior to
that which gained them.

gold. "a

w A. Lenoir, of Loudon, the fifth, IS
