THE sAGADAHOC AGRICULTURAL
FAIR.

7 orsuAM, October 10. The Sagadahoc Fair,
postponed from yesterday, opened to-day with not
the most auspicious circumstances. TWAS feared
that the rain of yesterday would prevent large
exhibit of cattle, and the hurying clouds this
morning kept lookerson in state of constant sus-
pense, but later cleared up, and before noon the
several committees were busily occupied
The following grades of cattle have been ex-
amined, and the awards of the respective commit
tees will be announced Friday afternoon: Short
horns, Ayrshires, Herefords, Devons, Jerseys and
Holsteins; also fat cattle, farm stock, steers town
teams; working, matched and draft oxen, swine
and sheep.
Notwithstanding the disadvantages of doubtful
weather, the committees express themselves as
well satisfied with the exhibit, which compares
in all respects very favorably with former years
The Jerseys and IIerefords especially make fine
showing.
The usual vendors Of small wares have made
their appearance, each vieing with his neg hbor in
the endeavor to add to the Babel of voices
IL the hall the magnificent exhibit of difrere1 I
vegetables and cereals attracts general attention
1t far exceeds that of any previous year of the So
cet,s existence. President Gilman saws that
Ssgadah' C never produced so much wheat before.
ana a member of the executive committee is au-
thority for the statement that the vegetable ex.
hibit is inferior TO none in the State. Noticeable
among the exhibits in the second story of the main
hall is tasteful variety of work contributed by
company of Qnakers, the same who were present
at the State Fair.
With pleasant weather, and the indications are
now in favor of it, trotting for the societys prcm-
ums will commence tomorrow at p. NJ

The exhibition and prize drill of the Connor
Cadets at Granite Hall, last evening, commenced
with company drill, some twenty of the Cadets,
commanded by Capt. Laly, participating, the
Cadets occupying the stage. This was followed
bv the silent manual twelve of the Cadets pass
ing through the manual of arms without receiv-
ing orders. The bayonet exercise, in which four
participated, came next. All admired the grace
and dexterity exhibited by the boys in the various
exercises. But by far the most interesting was
the prize drill, the following young men Compel
ing singly: Fred II. Owen, John Wade, Will
Perkins, Will WEIGH, Win. Turner, Arthur Whit
tier, Wallace Words, Vene Russell, T. Sullivan.
The judges announced that Perkins, Owen and
Welch had drilled equally well, and that second
trial would be had, false orders being given. The
committee were still unable to decide and WEIGH
and Owen were put under close drill by Major
Farley, and still the committee in doubt, the
two boys doing equally well apparently. Finally,
to settle the matter, the first prize was given to
Sergt. WEIGH and the second, of equal value, to
Corporal Owen. The decision seemed to be salts
factory to the audience, who roundly cheered. A
dance closed the evenings entertainment. fair
audience was in attendance, and all were greatly
pleased with the exercises. Hanagan's Orchestra
furnished music for the occasion.

ADMINISTRATION of President Hayes, said 1t was
difficult to imagine where that gentleman will
eventually land bis party. He thought those who
supposed that the administration would capture
the democratic party, would find themselves mis-
taken, but it was his opinion, however, that dem
ocIats would do by Hayes as they did by Andrew
Johnson-sustan him The democratic party had
been fighting for the principle OF local self overn
ment in the South, for years, and so far as the
President carried out that doctrine, they would
sustain him.

The Strasburg Clock.


Tho,e who have travelled in A lsace or have vise
the city of Strasburg, will not fail to recognize at
glace the exact reproduction of its world re-
nowned astronomical clock in the model now on
exhibition at Meonian Hall. As people are often
misled by the word model, and conceive it to be
small affair." we may state that this clock stands
twelve feet high, and six feet across the base.
For full description of its many wonders, We
refer our readers to the pamphlet which is given
to visitors and which contains in an addition, a
full account of the many trials which Swallowed
the life Of its youthful maker. As an exponent
of object teaching, it gives at a glance to the
student of Astronomy, the general disposi ton
of the planets as they revolve around the sun
the phases of the moon and how they are formed
and the varying concomitants of its calender Of
fifty years. Its mechanical mysteries. Its precis
sion, and the life like actions of the dramatic
personal in the scriptural episode must be seen tc
be appreciated.
Saturday is the last day of its exhibition in
Augusta.
