Baltimore; the object being to supply daily
during the winter months good and nutricious

In our own county the number of destitute

An Agricultural Fair.

We are glad to learn that the several
agricultural clubs of the county are about to
take active measures in regard to the forma-
ton of an agricultural society, for the pur-
pose Of holding county fair next year. The
advantages ofan annual fair, by bringing to-
gether, as it would, the farmers of the coun-
ty, in friendly rivalry, would be great. 1t
would tend to strengthen the bonds of union
and brotherhood between our farmers that has
already been attended with such happy results
by the formation of agricultural clubs
Another advantage would be derived from
fair, by the attention it would attract TO
our county and her productions Hartford is
not appreciated as she should be, by the
world outside, and u good agricultural fair,
displaying choice specimens other cattle her
horses, her grain productions, &C., would
present the resources of our county in fairer
light than anything else could do.
By notice in another column it will be seen
that committees of the agricultural clubs OF
the county propose TO meet in Bel Air, on
the I'd day of December, to fix upon the place
for holding the proposed fair Without at
tempting TO forestall the action of this joint
committee, we would suggest that in the
neighborlood of Bel Air not only suitable
spot could be found ON which to erect the
necessary buildings, but in the town itself
there are hotel accommodations for visitors
from abroad-a point which should not be
overlooked in selecting the place. We have
no doubt, either, that the business men of
Bel Air would subscribe literally, as they
ought TO do, TO further the project.
An attempt in this direction was made a
few years ago, but suffered to fall through,
because the farmers Of the county failed to
interest themselves in the matter We hope
for better things this time, and we believe the
fair would not involve the expenditure of a
cent more money than would be derived
from the exhibition.

CHURCH DEDICATED-The dedication OF
the new Presbyterian Church at Falston
under the charge OF the Rev. E. ID. Finney,
took place on last Sabbath morning. AL.
though the day was unpleasant and cloudy,
yet the church was more than full. A much
larger Gro wd would have been out if the day
had been pleasant and bright. Rev. III. L.
Singleton, formerly pastor of the Presbyte.
rian church in Bel Air, preached the sermon,
and with very appropriate and solemn SER
vice dedicated the new house to the service of
God. The service in the afternoon was well
attended, ana Notwithstanding the rain and
darkness of the night there was a good con,
gregation out at Z p. NJ Each night since
there has been preaching and an excellent at
tendance. The services are solemn and i'm
pressive; and all are gratifed with the sue
cess Oft Enterprise, and have good hopes
for Its 4 usefulness.
