TIE FAIR.-The Hunterdon Co. Fair came
off on last Tuesday, Wednesday and Thurs
day, and the usual amount of agricultural inn
plements, wagons and stock were ON exhibition,
but the exhibition of fancy articles, &C., was
not up to former fairs. The trotting on the
ment. An unusual attraction was added this
year not on the programme. A mare belong
ing to Mr.. Howard Carr became frightened
by running into sulkey, throwing his
driver out, and running around the track six
times, or about three miles, before she was
for wear, but the mare was placed upon the
track again.
Some of our citizens had goods on exhibit
ton. We noticed in particular Mr.. Chas. NJ.
Pettee, who was exhibiting pumps etc., with
a crowd around him all the time watching the
operation of raising water to the top of the
highest building on the ground, by means of n
double acting force pump and hydraulic RAM
Mr.. Vanhorn exhibited a fine assortment of
boots and shoes, and Drs. Robbins & Severns
had a splendid case of perfumery, patent medi-
cines, extracts, &C., for which they received
the first premium.
One Of the noticeable features of the Fair
was the scarcity of drunken men, which gem
orally infest such places, caused no doubt from
the fact that no beer or ale was allowed to be
sold on the grounds. Everything passed off
pleasantly, and no doubt satisfactorily. The
music was furnished by the GAINESVILLE Band
of eighteen pieces. The attendance was slim
ON Tuesday and Wednesday, but on Thursday
the crowd equalled that of any previous year.
