Republican Convention The Repuo-
lican Convention was held in the Court House
in this town, on Tuesday evening last, for the
purpose of selecting delegates TO represent this
county in the State Convention to nominate a
candidate for Comptroller. Arthur Stabler,
Esq, was made chairman. The delegates
present from the districts were authorized to
fiji vacancies occurring. But a short recess
served TO consummate this purpose, and the
convention was permanently organized with
out any change in the officers.
This county is entitled to only four votes in
the State convention, but as there were five
put in nomination, one from each district,
upon motion the assembly agreed to send the
five to cast the four votes. The names o.
those delegated are as follows:
Rich. Dwyer, j. A. Crockett, Walter APP
pleby, Nathaniel Warren, (col aud Arthur
Staber.
The convention then resolved not to nomi-
nate a county ticket and pledged the support
Of the party to any independent candidate
that might come in the field in opposition to
the Democratic ticket. Here the convention
adjourned.

E1SrERN KAR-

Frighdu as the carnage was in Plevna,
Russia played for a desperate stake aud iostit
The first repulse before those earihworks
serious as it was, created, as We now learn, SO
many murmurs Of the Russian people, among
whom there has been for some years past
good deal Of latent dissatisfaction, that a
second assault upon 0sman Pasha's lines With
all the forces that could be brought against
them became a matter Of necessity To make
assurance doubly sure a considerable part Of
the Roumanian reiuforcements were added TO
those OF the Grand Duke, and confidence was
felt that the assault would be successful and
0sman Pasha surrounded and forced to sur
render with all his command. His situation
was compared to that of Napoleon III. at
Sedan Instead of victory for the Russian
arms their failure at all points has been most
signal, and Of the three redoubts captured
only one is still held, and that one of the
least Importance. The two Others were re-
taken by the Turks within twenty-four hours
after they had been driven out of them. The
capture Of the latter and the subsequent loss
cost the Russians at this point alone of the
field OF battle six thousand men and many of
their bravest officers, the division of ScobeloG
being, by his own admission, almost annhi-
lated. Thus matters, instead of being better,
have been made worse than before.

Late EXhibitIOn.-Our county's Fair
which is yearly looked forward to with in
tense pleasure by our people transpired last
week, and was attended with unusual success
in everything except weather. The exhibition
was, perhaps, the finest ever witnessed upon
our Fair Grounds. The Stock department
was remarkably attractive, possessing the
finest specimens Of horseE, cattle, hogs and
sheep ever gathered together in this or any
other county. But if the farmers did well
their wives and daughters certainly surpassed
them. In the ladies' department all kinds OF
wines, cakes, jelles, pickles, butter, bread and
preserves attested the perfection of the cuina-
ry art among our female exhibitors while the
display Of fancy work and sewing disclosed
how readily they could leave the stove and
handle the needle. The inclement weather
materially interfered with the racing, keeping
a great many fast horses away that were ex-
pected TO be present, but on the last day, in
the race for the free for all purse in which four
horses participated was witnessed the most ex-
citing trial of speed ever occurring upon our
track. During Tic progress of the Fair the
Rockville brass band kept the grounds lively
with excellent music, and was highly sompli-
mented by many Of our friends who are good
judges Of music. We congratulate the off,
GERS of the Society and The people of our coun-
~ upon the eminent success of the Fair, clear
ly evidencing that Montgomery county under
the labor OF skilled agriculture is rapidly be-
coming the most productive portion OF the
State.
