HEEASTERB DIVISION FAIR.
The Changers Gather In mex
vile.
A Pleasant Time and Interesting
Session.
Final Acceptance of the Fair
Grounds.
From the Knoxville Press and Herald.

- NAC @ $1,000
When the encouragement was made
some days STAGE that there would be
an assembly of delegates from the
Oranges of the Patrons Of Husban-
dry throughout East Tennessee, in
this city, on the third of June, for
the purpose of considering a propo-
sition to conduct the Eastern Diyi-
sion Fair, next Fall, a very general
desire was manifested by our citi-
zens to give the delegates a cordial
reception. Accordingly 81 meeting
Of citizens was held and arrange
ments made with ayiew to that end.
TIE ARRIVAL.
The trains. yesterday, brought the
expected delegates, nearly two hun
dred of the representative farmers
of East Tennessee, with a number
Of ladies. Numerous citizens were
in waiting with their private carri-
ages, and the Committee of Arrange
ments had received an ample num-
Der of additional vehicles. Shortly
after noon the guests and their en-
tertainers were driven up Gay street
and thence out Cumberland to the
Fair Grounds. Prominent citizens
accompanied the delegates, among
the number Mayor Staub, Mr.. Perez
Dickinson, and many of our fore
most merchants.
The party were driven over the
spacious Fair Grounds, and about
1 80 o'clock were invited to partake
of a collation. which had been pre-
pared, under the direction of the
committee of arrangements, by mine
host Scherf, of the Lamar House.
The tables were most handsomely
spread, and plenty ruled the feast.
Mr.. Perez Dickinson, in a happy
little address babe the guests well
come. and after prayer by Rev. VIM.
Hancher, a Grange delegate, full
justice was done to the elegant re-
past. Ice cream and strawberries
brought up the rear of as elegant
and well earned collation. as ever
met expectant eyes.
The Committee on COLLATION., con
sisting of Messrs. G. A. King. P. N.
Williams, and S. D. j. Lewis assist
ed by Mr.. Hugh Martin, and other
gentlemen, we're SO effective in their
attention to the entertainment of the
delegates that too much praise can.
not be awarded them, and they de-
serve a vote Of thanks from the citi
zens whom they have so well repre-
sented on the occasion.
On the return to the city about 3
o'clock p. M, an open meeting of
the delegates was held in the hail Of
the Board of Trade, at which the
following proceedings were had
ASSEMBLING FOR BUSINESS.
G. w. Charlton explained the pur-
pose Of the meeting to be the con-
sideration by the Patrons and Farm
ers of East Tennessee of the ques-
ton of holding a Fair at the Eastern
Fair Grounds, next Fall.
Prayer was offered by Rev. VIM.
Hancher, when, upon motion, R. 2.
of Sullivan, was made Chair
man, and Jno. NJ. Meek, of Jeffer-
SON, Secretary.
A. j. Kicks. Trustee of the Fair
Grounds, was requested to make ex-
Dlanation of the condition of the

ion.

@A1-~L
Last week we published a letter
from Mr.. W. T. Hatch, of Minneap.
oils, Minnesota, to which we should
then have called the attention of our
people. The eyes of thousands in
the cold North and locust-blasted
regions of the Northwest have been
directed to East Tennessee. A well
directed effort on the part of our
people will soon turn so great a tide
of immigration here as will surprise
even the most sanguine.
There is no doubt of the fact, that
the one great thing we need to make
ms prosperous, is immigration. We
have thousands of acres of fertile
lands laying idle, because the owners
have not the means or force to till
it. We have numerous water pow
ers wasting their strength upon the
rocks and pebbles because our peo-
pie have not the means or the ener-
gy to gear their power to machinery
and put it to profitable use. We
send North and East for thousands
of manufactured articles and pay
freights to transportation companies
and profits to middle men, when we
have on every hill the material to
make them and in every valley the
needed power, because we lack the
skilled labor and the capital to utiI-
ize the blessings with which we are
surrounded.
MIR. Hatch proposes that if we
will furnish him the needed informa-
ton. he will so disseminate itamong
those who want the blessings of our
delightful climate and productive
soil, that it will bring a perfect tide
of immigration into our midst.
We have knowledge of the fact
that some of our public spirited citi-
zens have already, in a private way,
communicated with Mr.. Hatch, and
put into his hands such information
in regard to our county and its re-
sources, as will likely bring many
q Nofthern man into our midst be-
fore the end of this year. This is
as it should be. We hope many
more will do the same thing
But after consultation with several
of our leading citizens we feel au-
thorized to call a meeting of~citizens
of the county to take the matter IN
der consideration.
We suggest that such of our farm
ers, merchants and mechanics as de-
sire to do something to induce
Northern men to settle among us,
meet in the Circuit Court room at
8 o'clock next Saturday, 18th inst.
to take such action Is is thought
best 10 the premises.
Ifyou have land for sale come
to the meeting and let it be known,
and let us make an earnest effort TO
divert hitherward q portion of the
stream Of immigrants, which Mr..
Hatch says is setting Tennessee !

ADDRESS OF MIR. DICKINSON.
During the absence Of the Com
mittee of Thirteen, addresses were
made by a number OF gentlemen who

gates.
MIR. Perez Dickinson being en-
Enthusiastically called for, made a
happy and electrical address. He
said the citizens of Knoxville take
great interest and have great SYM
pathy in this movement by the
agriculturists of East Tennessee.
Knoxville is the centre from which
infunce for good may radiate throu-
ghout all the section. Mr.. Dickin-
son referred to the heroes and he
roines Of East Tennessee whose
descendants were present at this
meeting. AS representatives of
that noble people of one hundred
years ago we should feel we have a
noble heritage, and it is our duty to
revere and to cherish their memory.
Mr.. Dickinson referred to the veneer
able chairman, who as the represen-
tative Of an old and distinguished
family of East Tennessee, was es-
pecially worthy Of presiding over
this meeting. Mr.. Dickinson paid
an eloquent tribute to the women
of East Tennessee. who. while the
men were in the field, stood by thy
lone cabin to give the signal, when
the enemy were in sight. The wo-
men before me to-day are the o
thy defendants of such noble hero
ines. cloud applause.)
MIR. RHEA RESPONDS.

was one of the troops that went to
the mouth of the Little Tennessee
against the Indians.

led for. spoke eloquently in detail
of the necessity of East Tennessee,
with all her exhaustless and diver
siRed . mineral wealth, being we'll
