On the first page Of this paper we pub
lish a communication signed 'AdelphOs,'
in which the writer points ont what he
regards as common evils, that accompany
County Agricultural Fairs. We are full
ly aware there are grounds for complaint
against practices that too commonly pre-
vail at county fairs, but we do not sup
pose that our correspondent is opposed to
county fairs altogether. We believe that
these fairs may be conducted in a man.
nef that would be beneficial and interest
ing to all classes of citizens in every coun-
ty in the State, and this is, undoubtedly, !,
the design of these annual exhibitions.
If they are not what they should be, or
what they were originally designed to be,
would it not be well to reorgahize them,
and establish them on a basis that will
exclude from them the evils complained
of by our correspondent?
We would like to hear from some of OnF
Intelligent farmers on this subject.

The Republicans of Ohio are playing
the edog-in-the-manger with the soldier
that is, they will neither vote for them
nor suffer Democrats to do so.--Regtster.
The Republicans of Ohio intend to vote
for HickenloOper and John F. Oglevee,
both as good soldiers as there were in the
Union army, neither of whom have gone
back on their war record by casting votes
in congress with the Confederate Gener-
ais to repeal the law for the protection of
the ballot-boxes against frauds and bal
lot-stqffing. Now, AIr. Editor, don't say
again that the Republicans won't vote for
soldiers, nor suffer Democrats to do so,
but come right along and vote for Hick-
enlOoper and Oglevee, who served gal
lantly through the whole of the war.
