MeigS County Fair.

The Meigs County Fair was held
on the 4th and 5th, two or three miles
back of Pomeroy, on the old ''fair
grounds" being an inclosure Of some
twenty acres.
THE ATTENDANCE
on the last day was larger than last
year, and, had it not been for the
dusty roads, no better time could
have been selected.
The exhibition of fruits and veg
etables, owing to the early drought,
was not equal to last year, but the
live stock was better. Many of the
farmers and mechanics, especially
those of Rutland township, drew the
first premiums; and it was noticed
that one man drew mot by any par
tiality,) premiums upon everything
that he had entered.
THE RACES
attracted more or less attention; but
we have not time nor space to speak
of this feature of the fair. Neither
can we perceive how so much time
devoted to this can advance the in
terests of agriculture.
During both days good order was
observed and pleasant time enjoyed,
friends meeting each other from re-
mote parts of the county with friend
ly greetings. 5. III. Is.

Just before leaving New Hope church bis
three corps commanders were assembled alone

macon as being the place to fall back upon. II
remember rightly, this suggestion was receiy-
ed IN silence, for cannot recall the reply of
any one of us at that moment we'll remem-
Der, however, after we had left the presence of
General Johnston, and were riding through the
darkness Of the night to our respective head
quarters, the unanimous sentiment expressed on
this occasion. 1t was to this effect 'In tb.
name of heaven, what is to become of us Here
we are, with the depots for recruits drained from
Mobile to Richmond, all the troops having been
sent either to us or General Lee in Virginia
our army fifty or sixty miles from Dalton, no
general battle fought, and our commander talk
ing OF Macon, one hundred miles beyond Allan
Ia, as being the place 10 fall back upou.n This
gloomy outlook brought about the comparison
touching our losses up TO that time, and to which
referred in my first reply. We finally seper-
ated and each rode to his own tent howsoeyer
dspiri'ed, am confident that not one of us SO

while quietly passing by was snapped by the

fangs in her cheeks The cat threw herself up
on his back and put her paws to work in try

when The spectator of this singular combat
interferred. The lizard was dispatched. The
