OWING 10 press of business and the fact
that Thurzday IL, with us. the most busy day
of the week, we were deprived OF the pleasure
o. visit to the FAIR held by the Paw Paw
Valley Agricultural Society, on the grounds OF
that Society, last week. The weather was
rather inauspicious aud quite threatening, in-
deed SO much so. as to dissuade persons living
at a distance from attending. Yet. if our adj
vices are to be depended on, the attendance
was good and the exhibition OF stock and inn
PIGMENTS was excellent. though, perhaps, not
quite so numerous and large as would have
been the case had the weather been more
settled.
There ID considerable good stock in that Vi
cnity. aud II the owners took as much interest
III the exhibition as they should, the show of
animals must have been fully up to the average
OF the best County exhibitions. The fact that
the locality OF the Far is inland aud quite re-
mote from any railroad, Of itself would be
somewhat against very large collection OF
animals aud implements as the land carriage
Of the latter would be considerable.
1t is. however, gratifying fact that the
Society made success of the late exhibition.
The Society has good grounds and good ac-
commodstions, and the exhibitions for the past
two or three years have been such as to in
spire confidence, and sufficiently remunerative
to meet all current expenses, with something
left over for the next Fair. We believe they
boast that addition, division, and silence"
forms no portion Of their working programme.

About ten years ago travelling tinker
named Remission, well known throughout
this and Piscataquis counties, mysteriouslv
disappeared, and fears were entertained that
he had been murdered. But in short time
he was discovered to be living the life of n
hermit on lonely island in Moosehead lake.
His dwelling house befitted the fortunes of a
