Border Fair.


Last Friday we visited the Border
Fair at Bristol. 1t was the last day OF
their FIRST exhibition. The people Of that
section, have become enthusiastic on this
subject, and they deserve much credit for
the energy, and perseverance they have
used this summer in being so well pre-
pared for their Fair. The location of
the grounds is first rate, the building,
substantial and convenient. The stock,
horses, cattle and sheep, we're as fne as
can be found any where in the South, but
we thiuk there was considerable failure
on the part Of the farmers in placing on
exhibition their products.
The ladies department, was we'll rep.
resented. Financially their Fair was a
grand success, and as they used every
means possibly to make money this year,
in order to pay for the improvements, we
hope at their next Fair, the people will
be favored with equally as good accom-.
mediation, for less money.
