THE FAIR.-Thc arrangements for the
County Fair, which opens on the 18th
of next month are in good hands and are
progressing satisfactorily. We accepted
this morning, the courteous invitation of
Jed Lake Esq. Secretary Of the Society,
to visit the fair grounds and inspect the
recent improvements made, and making
for the coming exhibition. The Floral
Hall which last year was found too small
has been enlarged, by the addition Of
wing "a by go feet thus giving nearly
double the room of last year. There are
sixty stalls for. cattle and horses. Sixty
more are to be built, thus giving ample
accommodation in this department. The
show of stock gives promise Of being
better than last yoar. Sixteen stalls for
thoroughbred cattle, are already engaged
by one man. In this connection we
should speak of the twelve comfortable
box stalls for turf horses, built last spring
by the society aud now occupied by
Harvey Clark, for training purposes. The
grounds are well supplied with water,
three never failing wells furnishing
amply supply for all possible uses. The
track is in superb order, Mr.. Clark giving
much of his time to its Improvement.
We are informed that the privilege of
keeping refreshment booths on the
grounds during the fair, has been let to
the Methodist, Presbyterian and Con-
gregational societies ofthis city. Every
thing indicates an unusually successful
fair this year, one which will amply pay
every agriculturalist, manufacturer and
mechanic IN the county to attend, and
furnish contributions If his products or
landiwork.

The Big Hat !

AS the sign denotes, it is tru-
ly a Hat Store, both lor Ladies
and Gents. Every person who
visits independence is familiar
with Turner's Millinery and Fur
nishing Goods Store. Last spring
they added to their stock in the
shape of Gents Hats and Fur
nishing Goods, making it truly
a Hat Store. We say it land
without boasting), that we have
as large and as fine an assort-
ment as can be found in any
store of our class of goods west
of Chicago.
To the Ladies (as usually, we
solicit a share ofyour patronage.
To the Gents remember it is
truly, surely, and the only Hat
Store in the city. Our Facility
and Experience for purchasing
stock is second to none; expen-
ses small; consequently our
prices we guarantee.
Remember the place, The

Wool and sheep.

The topic exciting the most interest
among Madison county, Ohio, farmers,
says the Democrat is at what price they
shall dispose Of their wool. Buyers
have already offered as high as seventy
cents, and have as yet been unable to
secure many lots. Wool-growers are
holding off for seventy-fve and eighty
cents, and some even expect q greater
advance. Notwithstanding the low
price OF wool last spring caused a con,
siderable decrease in the number OF
sheep in the county for while, it is
thought that q sufficient number have
been brought in from other sections
during the year to- make the aggregate
this spring equal to last. The total
number Of sheep last year, as returned
by the township assessors, was 7,s4z
head valued at $l69,999. While the
number this year will probably oe
about the same as last, the aggregate
value will be largely increased; A
few sales have been recently made a.
from sixty to seventy cents. ..E

inhumanity to woman.

Mac. brings forward the railroad aud
bridge enterprises again, this morning.
We still adhere to the view expressed
in the REGISTER several times, that the
building Of each Of these three great
works is entirely practicable; that the
city should subscribe literally to each !;
that she can afford to do so, and will
make money by 30 doing; and that, if
the friends of each OF the enterprises
will cordially unite their efforts, the
city will 80 subscribe. The property OF
the city is worth s3O,OOo,oOO. Three
per cent on that amount is S99O,OOO,
lust the amount asked by these three
important works. Does any intelligent
and clear-headed man doubt that on the
completion of the two railroads TO the
Northwest, and Of the Bridge which
would bring the trade, travel and
traffic OF three roads into the heart OF
our city, property will be advanced
in value far more than three per cent?
But the city is not asked to donate, 1t Is
asked to ta ke stock in these enterprises.

nor can the honesty and integrity OF
those who favored either side of the
question. 1t is unfortunate that the
matter was first introduced, and also
that it was not determined by private
consultation and agreement among the
Democratic members. But what is
done, is done; and there are many
indications already that the decision OF
the majority will be cheerfully acqul.

division will grow out of the affair. 1t

Of the new Constitution, because the

see the Intelhgsneer continues its
warfare against the substantial i'm

it did a week or so ago have an article
in favor Of the railroad bridge project.
Some OF our citizens are of the opinion
that the articles in that paper signed

ticles in question are written by the
paid attorneys OF the Wheeling and
Tuscarawas Valley railroad. One Of
them, in his place in the First Branch
Of Council, last evening, was very
anxious to restrict in some way the
grant to Bailey, Woodward & Co. OF the
right TO use certain streets for horse
railway. 1t is bitter pill to these
gentlemen to see such a manufacturing
firm as Bailey, Woodward IL Co. erect
a blast furnace in this city; it puts the
lie on their wicked prophecy, that be-
cause of the Councils failure to encour'
age the giving Of 100000 OF the PEG.
pies money to that fraud, the Wheel
