Bayless, Mr.. j. e. Moore, Rev. Moses
Seaton and Dr.. j. r. Boyd spoke in the
forenoon. Singing interspersed between
the several speeches added much to the
interest of the occasion. 1t was a gala
day for the old as we'll as the little folks.
At Il o'clock dinner was announced.
Temporary tables had been prepared for
the occasion. The dinner was abundant
ana OF such a character as to crafty the
taste Of the most !astidious. In short it
was the fat Of the land. The multitude
was fed aud more than twelve baskets Of
fragments were taken up. There was a
general good feeling among the people
such as you see manifested after their
partaking a good square meal.
DR.. VIM Smith was the first spe aker
after dinner. A class of young ladies
read essays. Rev. Mr.. Woolsey made a
few remarks and introduced the Rev.
Mr.. Manning Of Hillsdale, Michigan, who
addressed the audience. The people dis.
persed as quietly as they gathered. The
celebration was a grand success, and much
credit is due the managers, Of whom Mr..
Felix Painter was the most prominent and
the citizens of the ~neighbohood as well.
A few years ago there was nothing but
extended "barrens' where the Church
now stands. Now there is a large con-
gregation and an interesting Sunday
School. Such improvement is quite
creditable to those people. We hope the
good work will ever 60 on, One thing
they need badl", and that is a good
school house and a prosperous school,
These people have been neglected. The
neighborbood is populous. A good school
could be supported handsomely. If they
will take hold of the matter with proper
energy success will crown their efforts.

WASHINGTON COUNTY FAIR

Five years ago a few enterprising
gentlemen in this county in casual con-
versation mutually decided that Wash
ington County ought to have an annual
Far, where our Farmers, Mechanics
and Artisans with their wives and
children could meet and compare notes,
and exhibit specimens OF the result Of
their respective industries, thereby
arousing a spirit Of emulation that
would result in the mutual benefit of all
our industrial interests.
The result OF this meeting was the
preparation Of an article Of agreement
in the nature of a subscription list for
n capital stock to inaugurate the enter
prise. A number. of gentlemen at
once subscribed literally, q meeting of
stock subscribers was held, and the
result was the organization of the
Washington County Agricultural and
Mechanical Society" The first Fair
of the Society occurred in 1872, and
gave general satisfaction to its patrons
and, the Society, But it was not
until 1873 that Washington County
eclipsed all the Fairs in East Tennessee
by the magnificent display of natural
and artificial products at that exhibit.
ton.
The unexpected success that crown
cd the efforts of that year, gave oul
Fair a name and reputation far and
wide, that by proper efforts will en-
able us to continue in the lead in this
respect. &
The Fair of 1874 was If possibl,
better than the one of 1873, and il
now devolves upon every citizen of this
and the adjoining counties especially
to see that the exhibition of 1875 sur
passes them both, If possible.

Public School, have net been failures

schools Of the County. The schools are
better disciplined, and a better class OF

All this is owing to the success of the

complaining is evidence of success. Com.

A FAILURE.

We often hear it remarked that the
public schools are a failure. In some
cases they have failed and we are right
glad of it, too. There is a good lesson in
these failures. Success under the circum-
stances that surround some Of the schools
would be little less than miraculous
The men who proclaim public schools a
failure arc the open and avowed enemies
of general education. They are opposed
to the school system. They do nothing
but complain. They oppose taxation for
school purposes. They oppose State and
County Supervision. They SEQ no use
in good school houses, They oppose pay
ing a teacher a reasonable salary on the
ground that he ought net to receive more
than Is paid the day laborer. These are
the men who talk Of the public schools
being failures.
Tue SUCCESS Il our school system is
only a question of time. The good
schools can plead their own cause. The
poor schools ought to fail, and when they
do, it is a strong argument in favor Of
progress. We could name neighborhoods
in which neither public nor private
schools could succeed. The people want
a cheap school which necessarily implies
a poor One. In such places ignorance is
bliss and the school is not the only thing
