4posed OF a large variety Of tn,
rarest flowers, &c, but it was soor
destr' yed by being picked to pieces
by thoughtless persons. Such con
duct as this. is greatly to be. cen
snred, and We hope that the persons
who were guilty of such wantor
thOughtIessness viii in the futur,
refrain from indulging their love FOL
the beaptifuite such an extent. ~
On Thursday night the audience
was delighted with the singing Of
THE children. They sang several
beautiful choruses which spoke well
for their talent and training. An
Instrumental duet by two OF the
4young misses was highly applauded.
On Friday the Pisgah Sunday school
again visited the Exposition In q
body and regaled the audience with
q beautiful song, o. the same night
fseveral of the ameteur ladies and
gentlemen of Pulaski appeared In
| several Choruses, which were web
appreciated by the audience and
contributed largely to the enter
talnment Of the vast assembIage.
Upon Saturday, the last dag, the
large coneonrse Of visitors were sur
pTised to find that the promise made
by the Chairman Of the Executive
Committee the night previous that
the fountain should gush forth
wine, and that pleasure should float
upon zephyrd pinions and infuse
its delights into the very souls of
the transported AUDIENCE" was
verified to some extent. The foun-
tain in the horticultural Garden did
send forth a fluid that . had the
beautiful appearance of wine. and
the audience were. transported with
joy and mirth. .
we could not mention everything
upon exhibition and every persons
name who contributed, and we hope
those who have been overlooked
will consider the impossibuity of
such an undertaking.
We pass now to the consideration
OF the Exposition in the abstract, or
rather as a whole; how it was receiv-
ed, what was its effects, and what
its success. We consider that the
past week has witnessed an event of
the greatest magnitude and impOr-
lance that ever transpired in Pulas-
XII That it was q success, one
need only be told of the vast num-
bers who continually thronged the
buildings, and of the universal and
enthusiasts admiration manifested
by all Who had the good fortune to
be present. In fact the success
which attended the undertaking was
so transcendently marked that itsur
passed the expectations of any and
far outreached all speculations that
have been made either by the society
or by individuals. Snch has been
its success that it is beyond ques-
ton now that the Giles County
Fruit Growers Society is an estab-
lished institution, and that its Elk
positions. will be annual and per.
petual. It's effect will be that it
will encourage the production of the
Finest of fruits and flowers, ahd be
an incentive to those who have lag
ged for the want of such encourage
ment. A new era has dawned upon
Giles county, and last week witnes
sed the sun Of that glorious day
burst forth in majestic splendor anu
scatter to the winds tile clouds of
doubt, derision and opposition that
to obscure his rays and
us in a dark mantle Of
Iethargy and inactivity. We re
cognize in the Second Grand Annual
Exposition of the Giles County
Fruit Growers Society a power that
has raised us into path which leads
TO a prosperous rcnOwn, and gladly
10 we congratulate its. managers,
and through them our people, upon
-he magnifccntlY grand success that
has wreathed around their efforts a
crown which will be as lasting as it
IS bright and glorious.
