Agricultural Fairs.

We acknowledge invitations TO the follow.
ing fairs for the present fall, for which We
re:utn our thanks TO the polite officers:
The FAIR OF THE North CAROLINA AGRI-
CULTURAL SOCIETY opens on the 18Th October
and continues until the 10th, inclusive. The
Society has an enterprising and public
Spirited set Of officers, and its fair will. we are
sure, be conducted in liberal and successful
st,le. We expect our manufacturers TO do
Their best to be we'll represented at this
North Carolina fair. They must be careful
lie the manufacturers Of North Care
lima place them to disadvantage. AT the

eXerting his il fluence in the North State to
encourage manufacturing as we'll as agrcu.

facturers will not lose by better acquaiut.
auce with him and his colleagues. We earn
estly declare our opinion to be that
both North Carolina aud Virginia would
profit by more intimate inter-
course. We know North Carolina will.
The capital Of Virginia has been cut Off,
as it were, by Algerine policies from that
know ledge of her which it should have had.
Therefore we fear that even now our people
here do not appreciate the advantage they
would derive did the proper intercouIs Sc be-
tween them and their "feilow-citizars' of
North Carolina exist. The approaching fair
will afford them good opportunity for a
"better acquaintance" and we trust they
will avail themselves OF 1t.
The BALDWIN AGRICULTURAL FAIR, Of Au.
gusta county. to be held al Sasuuton on the
18th, 1870, and IA h days Of October. This
fair has been very active and successful one.
The lste john h. BALDWIN was its great friend
and conspicuous member, who had 4 promi-
pent part in its annual meetings. Since bis
death it has received his name in compliment
to his memory and in grateful recollection of
his valuable services in giving il u start aud
helping TO advance its interests.
At the Agricultural Fair at Staunton there
will bea fine show Of animals, and we are
cure that domestic industry aud art will no.
be behind.hand. We trust that our business
aud manuiacluring-men will take care to be
represented there, and that they will not
allow themselves to suffer detrlment from
any delinquency.

PLANTER AND FARMER.-The September
No. of the Planter and Farmer, of this city,
is out, and contains SOME very practical and
Instructive Information. Espt cially concern.
ing manures are there some very good things.
There are articles on "Bf6oued Cattle"
hcep.Raisng,' Cooperation Need of
the Grange: No Antagonism,' "Reclaim-
ing River Bottoms" &C., together with scnsi-
BILE editorials that make up very good
No.
We are especially pleased with the excel
lieut. letter from Colonel RANDOLPH HARRI.
SON with regard to " Professor WILLIE and
chemical mauure>." The Professors sys
tenn proposes to dispense with bulky putres-
cent manures, and rely altogether on chemi-
cal preparations Tor fertiIizirg he soil. Colo.
mel HARRISON enters Ca caveat against this
doctrine because its logical result will be
ruinous 10 our lands" Exactly. And
the Colonel says that if it were cor.
rect. and if we could get cheaper
and better manures from the laboratory than
from the farm-yard, the farm-yard would
be neglected, the clover and grasses be
Gro Hded out, aud a "scourging" system
would be established that would ruin all the
rolling lands in the country through abra-
sion, because Of their denudation Of the
grasses. Such system OF course could not
succeed. Colone! HARRISON shows its folly
completely, and further shows that, like most
new theories, this of M.yiLLE's is grossly ex-
aggerated. A gentleman in this State has
made the fairest tests OF it and found it an
utter fallacy.
A fact stated by Colonel HARRISON is Of
general importance. and that is that CONNER.
cial fertilizers act infinitely better in coDjunc.
ton with home. made manures than when
spilled alone. He scouts the idea that the
chemical fertilizers should be substitute for
faIm-yard nanures. He says they should
only be considered as supplemental. We
approve heartily what the Colonel says,
though our appreciation may be of little
weight. We do not think it possible that
any invention can ever dispense with that
policing OF the farm, that outstanding of all
refuse and the returning il to the land which
produced it. Nature demands 1t :; good
farming and order and cleanliness could not
exist without it, aud no tbeorist can ever de-
wise plan to get rid of it. 1t would be a
calamity to domestic economy were such
a thing to be invented.
There ia also Ia the Planter and Farmer
some instructive information from the eX.
periments at the University farm.
We failed to notice the August No. of this
excellent agricultural periodical. 1t wos q
fine No. 1t had portrait of GEORGE WATT,
the inventor and improver Of many parts of
ploughs, doing almost rs much for that chief
agent of the farmer as ever his namesake did
for the steam.englne.
We note decided improvement iu the
Planter and Farmer. 1t is one Of the best
Of such publications in the country. =.

The Potato Bug and its Rarages.

The French minister, alarmed at the
progress of the Colorado beetle or pota-
to bug, has followed in the footsteps Of
other foreign ministers, and asked full
description how to kill it. The only
remedy thus far found is paris green,
and the evidences all go to show that it
kills the bug and does not injure the
tubers or potatoes. Several countries
have prohibited the importation of po-
tatoes from this country; butthis is only
folly, for the bug clings to the vine, de-
stroying the vitality of the plant, but
does not go to the tuber. They would
be exported in hay more quickly thOn in
potatoes.
The insect has been known for over
fifty years, and has been injurious to the
cultivated potato since about 1860, when
it commenced its travels eastward from
the base of the Rocky mountains, and
has been steadily progressing since at
the rate of sixty or eighty miles year.
1t is now reported as destructive in Cen
trail New York, Pennsylvania, and New
Jersey, Maryland, District of Columbia
and Eastern Virginia.

Russian Royal Feasts.

Not even the fancy of Dumas, says
correspondent writing from Russia,
could imagine anything more splendid
than the magnifcence Of royal feast.
Superb palm trees, sixty feet high, were
brought to the palaces; round these
tables were constructed, whose entire
service was of solid silver rarest exotics
lent their perfumed breath, forty thou
sand wax candles gave their soft radi-
ance, while the superb toilets, glittering
with gems, and costumes gay with official
decorations, added to the enchantment
of the scene.
We attended several of these enter
tainments, and then one day we went to
see the frolic at the ice hills. st.
Petersburg is as fiat as Chicago, SO her
hills, like those of the Lake City, are
manufactured and located to order. In
such a climate there is no trouble to
keep a perfectly glazed surface steel
shod sleds are in readiness, and the
sport was more exciting than any we had
tried since our childhood in Maine, when
we went coasting down the long hills by
the Kennebec. The velocity is some
thing awful.
We never saw snow storm while we
were there. The excessive moisture in
the air crystalllzes duling the long win
ter nights, falling frozen dew to the
depth of two or three inches, which is
easily swept up by the army of laborers
employed in the cities and carried out to
the open country. There, the silent &C
emulation of the icy crystals still con-
tinuing, an immense body forms, re-
manning for months, but we found no
cold more excessive than that of New
England. Itpuzzles us in st. Petersburg,
even more than in Washington, to cor
rcctly name the different periods of
time, for the same behaves very queerly
mixing our ideas of night and morn
ing to painful degree. Doubtless we
should have grown accustomed to it had
we remained longer.

The American medical association of
Louisville, KY, adopted resolution re-
questing Congress to take immediate
steps in granting to physicians and sur
geons connected with the army and navy
titles proposed to be bestowed upon
them.
DIR. Samuel D. Gross of Philadelphia
delivered an address, taking for his sub
iect: Gone of the Lost Arts; Blood
Letting Considered as a Therapeutic
Agent.
He spoke at some length of the recent
discontinuance of this practice, and
dwelt upon its former popularity, which
had continued undated for two thou
sand years. In the face of its once
supposed eficiencyin aiding the cure of
certain forms of disease, he said in sub
stance that it behooves us to inquire
whether there is not something wrong
in the discontinuance of the practice and
whether We have not fallen into the op-
posite error. Extremes are always dan
gerous in the practice of medicine. 1t
behooves us to be on the watch. If the
new way is right the old was certainly
wrong. The lancet is now an obsolete
instrument. The Office of cupping has
disposed of blood letting, which is en-
phatically lost art.
He then considered the causes of the
loss, which are four, viz: First, the in
fuence or tyranny of fashion; second,
the indiscriminate use of the lancet ;
third, the requirement of more &C
curate knowledge of diseases fourth,
knowledge of medicines hitherto
unknown. These causes were con-
sidered at length. The doctor averred
himself an advocate of blood letting for
many diseases, especially for diseases of
an inhammatory characteristic bleed
ing to be in all cases at the beginning
of the diseases. He predicted that
bleeding would again come to be rec
ognized as therapeutic agent, but that
it would not be practiced indiscrimi-
nately.

Come, and Let Us Reason Together.

To the afflicted in body, we offer a
few words of plain, practical reasoning.
No matter under what form of sickness
you labor there is one great truth you
should ever keep in mind, viz: All dis
ease originates in an impure condition of
the blood. Purify that, and the dis
ease must depart, for it has nothing to
feed on; but you cannot purify the blood
by the use of poisonous drugs and ex-
haustive stimulants; the relief which
these afford is temporary and deceptive,
leaving you worse off at every interval.
The best blood purifier ever discovered
is DIR. Walkers famous Vinegar Bitters,
compounded of simple herbs No mat
ter how hopeless your case may seem,
try the Vinegar Bitters, and few
draughts will convince you of their
virtue. DR.. Walker, the discoverer of
this priceless remedy, had been given
up to die by the physicians, and is now
a sound and healthy man from their
use,

Happy Arithmetic.

Sidney Smith cut the following from
a newspaper and preserved it for him
self When you rise in the morning
form the resolution to make the day q
happy one to fellow creature. 1t is
easily done left off garment to the
man who needs it kind word to the
sorrowful ; an encouraging expression
to the striving -trifes in themselves as
light as air-will do at least for the
twentyfour hours. If you are young,
depend upon it it will tell for you when
you are old i; and if you are old, rest as
sured it will send you gently and happily
down the stream of time to eternity BY
the most simple arithmetical sum look
at the result. If you send one person
away happily through the day, that is
three hundredand sixty five in the course
of year. And suppose you live forty
years only after you commence that
course of medicine you have made
$4,000 persons happy-at all events for
a time.
