COUNTY NEWS.

The FAiR-Ths week occurs our an !,
nual exhibition Of horses, cattle, sheep,
and all other farm stock, agricultural
and dairy prod Ice, implements, manu-.
features, needle work, specimens Of fine
arts, &C.. and whether the exhibition is to
be one which shall be creditabIe to our
county depends entirely upon the people.
We have the material to make very fine
show, and if they are brought out the
meeting must be grand success. 1t is
a matter Of some inconvenience and ex.
pcnse to get together so much stock, anu
it is fact all readily recognize, tina: the
premiums awarded do not pay for the
trouble, with very few exceptions. But
the mercenary consideration should not
rule All local feeling, all unworthy
jealousics, aud every improper and sell
fish consideration should be laid aside
and only the desire to help along the
general success should prevail Then
we might again have such exhibitions as
used to be had in the palmy days of the
Addison County Agricultural Society.
