A Fine speech and . Big Trout

The watertown (N. Y.) Post of September 24 in @ full and detailed account of the Jef- ferson county fair, held at Watertown, N. Y., which was attended by many thousands of people, speaks as follows concerning an address delivered by Judge Joseph Sheldon of this city on the fair grounds:
 The address of the Hon. Joseph Sheldon was eloquent, scholarly and convincing. IL is safe to say that no more brilliant discourse was ever delivered on the fair grounds. He discussed the causes of the financial stresi which every agriculturist is forced to front and found many of them in foreign lands. We regret that we fail in space to reproduct this address in its entirety. It should bs printed in some enduring form, thus giving the reader time to consider the proposition oi It's writer, which one who listened to itf eloquent periods would fail to do. In the same paper is the following of in- terest to disciples of Uncle Isaac Walton hereabouts.
 Probably the largest brook trout ever caught in the Adirondacks was landed few days ago at Spring creek. The fish weighed six pounds and two ounces, and it's propor. tions and complications were perfect. This is one of the species of brown trout, the spawn of which was imported from Germany and received at the State hatchery February IS. 1884, so that its age could nos be more than between five and six years. The largest ever caught previously weighed trife over five pounds.
