The Michigan state Fair.

Several members of the Executive
Board of the State Agricultural Society
met in Detroit on Wednesday, August
10Th, to complete some arrangements
necessary for holding the next State
Fair, which will be held on the Expo
sition grounds near Detroit, common
cling Sept. 10 and continuing until the
Goth of said month. 1t is hoped by the
directors that the coming fair will excel
any former exhibition both as regards
material value and attendance There
is no question but that the State Agri.
cultural Society, through its exhibitions
for the last fOrty-five years, has been
the means of an advancement in agri-
culture, particularly in the direction of
breeding good stock. in exhibitions of
improved farm machinery, art, &c, that
could not have been brought out so
well in any other way. 1t has had sue
cesses and reverses financially, but only
the former in point of mciitorious exhi-
billions. The officers of the society, ex-
cept the secretary aud treasurer, work
without pay, necessary expenses only
being allowed. The whole state has an
intrest in its success. 1t belongs to no
company OF stock association. Its use
fulness cannot be questioned. Without
such yearly exhibitions the stock inter-
ests of Michigan would be materially
injured. 1t is one of the best educators
yet devised. Men and women can see
in a small compass the best of all kinds
of stock, the productions of the skilled
artisan, the work of art, of education,
and at the coming exhibition the finest
grounds to be found in the state. The
fair should he well patronzed. The
society has seen fit to make departure,
formerly one week having been given
to the exhibition, this year two. Detroit
is the metropolis of the state and she is
doing her best to make this fair per-

He Don't Like Carp.

PORTLAND, Or. Aug. 26, 1864.
ED. NoRTHERNER-My Dear Sir:
trust you will pardon me for intruding
upon your valuable time, but as | am
one of your old admirers, 1 feel that
many of your devoted readers aud
friends, whom | once had the pleasure
of knowing may be reminded through
the columns of the NoRTHERNER that,
although far from the scenes of my boy
hood, | am not unmindful o. their do
ipgs, and were it not that | saw IA local
in the issue of Aug. 18th that &c. c.
Engle had planted six cans of German
carp in the waters adjacent to the
village" do not think | should now be
writing you. But think | am safe in
predicting that when you, or my old
friend Engle, has passed through the
experience that we Oregonians have,
you will wish, from the bottom of your
heart, that columbus" had "discov-
cred another America" upon which to
raise German carp.
Up to few years ago the waters of
our rivers were filled with the choicest
varieties of fish that any country could
boast of. Nothing gave us more pleas
ure, when entertaining our eastern
friends, than to take them out for a
days fishing. If they wished to least
the fly and show their skill in landing
the ''speckled beauties" the wish was
father to the act, for our streams were
alive with trout. If nothing shorteof a
ten To fifty FOUNDER would satisfy their
desire, we had that kind of sport on
tap all the time. All the choice varie-
ties of fish that were known to exist i'm
other countries were planted" here,
and all thrived, for the water of our
rivers is of the purest. Some of our
good, wide-awake Teutonic friends, not
to be outdone by the product of any
other nation, tongue or creed, pledged
their faith anew, with mug" of lager
upheld in their right hand, and a dozen
'pretzels" tightly clutched in their left,
That the fish of our Vatterland sh der
pest dot neffer vas, so help me, by
grashus, und We viii had some right
away Oof, und don't you forget it."
And they "got it," where the chicken
got the AK" and they have been get
ting IL" ever since.
About the same time the carp was
planted" some one from Missouri de-
clared that mo fish was fit to eat but
the catfish" and they too were put TO
sprout, but they found, when too late,
that instead of catfish they had been
fooling with everyday, old-fashioned
bullheads. Judge the disgust that came
over our friend from Pike county when
he found his "cat" had horns on it. The
result is that now, when we invite our
friends for days ''outing," we first
ask them which they prefer, bullheads
or carpy If they say carp, we ere al
WAYS pleased for we do not have to
break our back digging worms; we
