EXHIBITORS AT THE FAIg.-The name of every
exhibitor at the fair ought properly to be on the
card attached TO the article exhibited. Fairs or
expositions, larger ones called, are intend
ed for the display and exhibition of the articles
taken there, and for the purpose of letting the
public know who is the inventor or manufacturer,
and where they can be had. The people are the
best judges Of the value of an article, and al
though they cannot award premiums, they can
give opinions, which are often more valuable
than the paltry premium OF a few shillings
awarded by the judges, who are not unfrequent-
ly very unfortunate in their decisions. An exhi-
btor frequently expends from SO to $50 to show
his articles or property, and the idea of conceal
ing his name or to suppose that his object is the
receipt of a tr6ng premium, is simply ridicu-
lous. Besides, this secresy reflects on the integ-
rty of the judges, and assumes that they would
violate their trust for the sake of few shiings.

GRAND DISPLAY OF PoULfRY.--The display o
poultry at the coming fair, by Col. D. Taggart
of Northumberland, will be, we ventHre to say
the best and most extensive that has ever occur
red in this State, and will-of itself make the ex
mbition one that cannot be readily surpassed
Col. Taggart had at our last fair SO cages of the
choicest fowls in chickendom. At the coming
fair, at this place next week, he will exhibit So
cages of these rare and beautiful birds. These
will embrace every variety of note in the world,
enclosed in handsome cages, which alone cost
nearly three hundred dollars. These cages are
not only neatly got up and scientifically con-
structeG, but are handsomely painted with
artistic skill, so to make the color of the
cages harmonize with those of the inmates. A
blue shade is selected for one variety of fowls
and n green for another, and so on for the va
rious colors of the different species. There will
be specimens of chickens that have never been
exhibited in this section before. Some idea may
be formed of the extent of Col. Taggart's colony
of fowls when we state that it will require eight
large wagon bodies, well piled up, to convey his
birds TO the fair ground. The expense of trans
portation alone will cost some thirty dollars, to
say nothing of the other expenses attendant on
the exhibition of such multitude. In addition
the Colonel will exhibit his beautiful collection of
Alderney stock, among them a calf with calf
Besides all this he will exhibit some valuable
and interesting Indian relies, which he has COL
lected in his travels in Alaska and territories of
the west. And yet we have editors among US who
have thrown out insinuations detrimental 10 the
interests OF the exhibition, because their interests
have not been consulted and their itching palms
creased by the officers of the exhibition.
A FINE PAINTING OF SUNBURY.-We were
shown last week, at Harrisburg, a magnificent
oil painting, which is about being finished for
for exhibition at the fai., at this place, next
week. The painting is a sketch of pant of Sun
bury, the river from the dam to above the west
branch bridge-the blue Eill including the point
of rocks opposite the town of Northumberland.
1t IS true and beautiful sketch, including the
r. Il. shops, and the whole of Caketown. The
painting is being executed by MIR. Julius Weaver,
formerly of this place, now a resident of Harris
burg. Mr.. Weaver is fine artist, and all who
will look upon his sketch of Sunbury will no
doubt admire its beauty, as well as to pronounce
him skilful artist. We also noticed a number
of other oil paintings in Mr.. Weaver's room,
which are well executed, and would do honor to
more experienced artists.

THE Central Clothing Store of Mcs'rs. Simon
& Oppenheimer, corner of Third and Market
streets, being put in order for next week. The

been opened, and all are cordially invited TO see
the great show of goods gratis. No charges are
made to show all they have in their store, while
those who wish to buy will save money. All
their goods are guaranteed as represented.

REUNION OF THE Attn PA. VET. VoLs.-From
what we learn the reunion of the above named
veteran regiment will be grea: success, and a
/ larger number of its members will be present
than was at first anticipated. We are glad to
announce this fact, and trust that these men,
who have faced the cannon's mouth, nor feared
death midst the strife of battle, may have a
right good time on the 22d of October, and that
our citizens will extend to them the courtesies
due to soldiers, and entertain them in a manner
that will do honor to Sunbury.
Sand when, in after years, dim scenes of by
gone joys fit through the visionary atmosphere
of the brain, we'll live them over in imagination,
and bless the hour that gave them BIRTH"
The words we have quoted need some qualif-
cation before they are strictly applicable to our
soldier reunions. There are sad memories con-
neced with those ''by-gone joys, Is and the 'hour
that gave them birth" is far from blessed. Yet
the idea embodied in the passage quoted is the
governing one of our veteran organizations.
They meet once year to revive war memories
to live over again
Those scenes that wars dread hand has traced
Upon their minds: And they erased
Can never he till the veterans are laid
Beside their cOmrades-neath the yewNtree's
shade.
These organizations are based upon the true
principle sthat all men are created free and
equal.'' The ''general' who once sported the
''stars," and the 'high private in the rear rank"
are at these annual reunions equals.
The intricate mysteries of "Red Tape" are
unknown. Their sleep is not disturbed by the
shrl bugle call and the order to "fall in - The
rattle of musketry and the deep boom of can
non no longer herald the confict-and the car
mage. All these belong to the-not dead past,
for to soldiers it will ever be liciag past, and
in these reunions live it DER again.
FISH PoNDs.-Thousands of farmers through
out the country could have these delightful and
useful little sheets of water with very little ex-
pense and labor. A well-reguated fish pond on
n farm is one of its best features. 1t not only
supplies the table with the choicest of meat,
fresh from its natural eleme nj, but it is source
of amusement, point of attraction, which will
20 further with the boys in making them love
the farm than any other feature or all other
features combined. Then it is source of fer
tility TO the soil and health of its owners.
Wherever a natural supply of water can be
made available, the farmer should by all means
take advantage of it and add an ornament to
his land which will add greatly to its value

SAN FRANCISCO, September 1.-The
few scattering returns from the city
don't furnish any indication of the
vote of the Independents. They are
very confident that they have elected
most of their city officers, excepting
Mayor, which is doubtful. No later
returns have been received.
1t is believed the stock board will re-
open next week. All the clerks of the

There are signs that money will soon
