I saw. The ladies had done their
part well. In the millinery depart
ment and fancy needle and tidy
work, quilts, ETC., there was 9 good
chow.
In the line OF preserves snd can
ned fruits there was not q large
display.
There was q very good show of
stoves, both COOK aud parlor. Also,
Mr.. Wilson, Of Arkansas City, was
on hand with the Ladies' Friend, or
Steam Washer which attracted some
attention.
The agricultural implement de.
partment was represented by . good
variety OF plows and some other
pieces OF machinery, among which
was ONT horse seed drill that at

Vegetables were scsre.
The Nh" " Of cattle was email, but
had some good suimals.
OF sheep I saw onlytwo varieties,
and not being . shesp man I asked
NO questions.
There was . number Of pens OF
hogs and some very good ones.
In poultry I saw nothing bui
chickens. and only three varieties Of
them. Some were very good.
The people all appeared to b.
pleased with the prospect Of max.
ing the Wilson county Hais . bis
thing in the future. I think. and
several gentlemen with whom ]
talked agreed with me, that thG
omcers Of the association had made
ono blunder which should be cor.
corrected in the future, and tai
farmers made another that needed
correction quite ~ bad. The o@cerl
had icsnssd one or two beer saloonl
that they might haye things lively
and then to keep them lively the,
had permitted gambling iastitu

STRIKES IN FRANCE.

The Pdtrie complains that while the strike Of the
miners has brought the coal crisis from which the
country now suffers and the strike OF the carpen-
ters has caused the occupation Of the Marine and
Upper Marine to be prolonged, now France is feel
ing the direful consequences OF the strike OF the
hatters, which was aimed at the Paris trade
When that strike occurred the manufacturers OF
Paris, who supplied four-fifths OF the requirements
OF the departments, addressed themselves to Eng
land. The provincial merchants did the same on
their own account, and gradually ceased to apply
to Paris The result Is that the hat trade both for
export and for the home market, has greatly fallen
OF. The Putrfe estimates that 10 has lost fifty per
cent that IL will never recover, and that branch
OF trade lately so 1ourishing, Is now in very
critical condition.
