State AGRICULTURAL Society.

The annual fair of the the State Agricultu-
raj Society, held in Columbia last week, was
largely attended by visitors from all parts of
the State, and the display of articles on exhi-
bition was fully equal to previous years.
Among the business transacted by the Society,
after the old officers were reelected by accla-
nation for another year, we observe that the
number of Vice Presidents was increased to
six, and the Executive Committee increased
TO nine. Gen. w. H. Wallace, of Union, and
B. F. Crayton, ESQ., of Anderson, were chosen
Vice Presidents under this arrangement, and
Messrs. S. c. Means, Of Spartanburg, E. B. c.
Cash. Of Chesterfield, and ]. d. Aiken, of
Charleston, were added to the Executive Com
mittee.
A resolution was adopted to Offer such pre-
miums as will induce the various Counties of
the State to compete for the same as Counties
al the next annual Fair. This method of ex-
hibiting by Counties has been successfully in
augurated at the Georgia State Fair, and we
trust there will be lively competition for
she premiums offered by our State FAIR. An
derson should enter the list of competitors, by
all means.
An invitation was extended for the Society
TO hold its summer meeting at Spartanburg
q. H.. on the second Wednesday in August,
1874. which was accepted, and the President
was authorized, at his leisure to appoint MEM
hers 10 prepare essays for that meeting.

Death of James Birnie, Esq.

We were inexpressibly shocked on receiving
the painful intelligence that James Birnie, Esq,
q prominent and useful citizen of Greenville,
died at his home in that city on "Wednesday,
Nth inst, from diptheria, aged about thirty-two
years. Dir. Birnie was native of Charleston,
and had been resident of Greenville for
the last ten years, where he was greatly es-
teemed by the citizens generally, and his sud-
den removal from the busy scenes of this
psesent life will prove serious loss to that
community He was prominent lawyer, en-
joying large and lucrative practice, and at
the time of his death filed the place Of Solici-
tor 10 the Air Line Railroad Company, made
vacant last year by the death Of the lamented
Essley. Mr.. Birnie was brightand intelligent
Mason, and was justly held in high esteem by
the fraternity. In the Grand Chapter of South
Carolina, he was an active and influential
member, always enjoying the confidence of his
associates, and at the meeting in February last,
he was unanimously elected Grand High Priest
for the present year. He was also Junior
Grand Warden of the Grand Lodge of South
Carolina, and had served several years as the
presiding officer of the Grand Council. His
loss will be deeply deplored by the craft, to
whom he was endeared by the most sacred ties.
He is cut off in the zenith of usefulness and
vigor of manhood.

Thomas B. Crews, Esq, of the Laurensvrle
Herald, arrived in our town on Saturday even

and that the health of the people is improving.
We regret that his stay was so limited, and
trust he will make his visit more extended next
time.
We are informed that Mr.. David A. Geer,
formerly of Anderson County, died at his resi-
dence in Rusk County, Texas, on the 9th OF
October, Of malarial fever, after brief illness
of only thirty-six hours Mr.. Geer removed
to Texas nearly two years ago, and had the
misfortune to lose his wife in December last.
His children are left orphans in a strange
land.

that these gentlemen invariably render salts

enterprise commend them to the patronage of
the public, which we hope they will abundant

The funeral obsequies of MFR. W. G. Davis
were conducted by Rev. L. NJ. Aver and Rev.
D. E. Frierson, at the Baptist Church, on
Thursday afternoon, in the presence of large
concourse of friends and acquaintance. MIR.
Frierson read the burial service Of the Episco-
pal Church, to which denomination the de-
ceased was warmly attached, and also made
beautiful and touching allusion to the last
illness and death of Mr.. Davis. The remains
were deposited in the graveyard adjacent.
The sad intelligence of Mr.. Davis death was
received in Charleston with sincere sorrow by
the numerous host of warm, devoted friends
he had made during his residence of seven
years in that city. We publish elsewhere a
brief tribute to his memory from the Nevs and
Courier.
