EDINBURGH FAIR.

The Edinburgh Farmers Associa-
tion held its First Annual Spring Fair
on Thursday.ithe lst of May, near S.
Strong's residence. one and one-fourtb
miles north of the center. Every
thing passed off pleasantly, and Che
verdict of the people is that the Fair
was a success, Notwithstanding the
rain in the afternoon.
The show of good horses on the
ground was excellent, although sew
eral came in too late to be entered.-
Mr.. Strong brought out his trotting
mare Fannie, and showed some hvel,
was not large, but the quality was
good-a better lot is seldom seen,
even at the County Fair. The sheep
entered by Messrs. Young and Strong
were good ones.
The poultry show was excellent
Mr.. T. III. Clark showed some yer,
large Dark Bramabs. Doctor WeiI
showed very fine collection of poul-
try, prominent among which was
pair of Buff Cochins hatched in Au-
gust last, and pair of Partridge
Cochins hatched i'll September last,
that are hard to beat.
The agricultural implements were
all good, and it would be curiosity
to know how the committee could
decide as to which was the best.
In the afternoon auctioneer T. II.
Bean sold at public sale on the ground
some sheep, at prices ranging from
S4.25 to $50 per head.
