The Annual Fair of th« Mclfenrv County Agr'cnltural Society, which w.n< held at. Woodstock last week, was a suo- pess lr» every particular. The show of Horses.Cattle. "Sheep, and Swine never ha« been so large In the history of the Society, and In fact every Department, was well filled and more than up to the standard of excellence. We 4^av§, neither time nor space to particularize If we would, and shall, therefore only notice briefly in general. The weather w?fLl lll tTint could be rleslred and the entries on Tuesday exceeded all expec­ tations. On Wednesday the crowd was good and the programme was carried out to the satisfaction of all. On Thursday morning the crowd began pouring in at an early hour and by noon it was conceded by the "'oldest inhabitant" that Woodstock never saw such a crowd in one day before. It was estimated that full seven 'thousand people were on the Fair grounds atjvne time, and yet the town was full of people. On Friday the crowd was not as large but still there was a good turnout. Of the immense number who^ came to­ gether for the three days we failed to hear one word of fault found. The pro­ gramme was carrle(tout to the letter as near as could he, and all went home visell pleased and awarding the greatest praise to the officers of the Society for their able management. THE NOTABLES, Among-the notables present 'hiring the Fair we noticed the following: Ex Lieut. Governor Shuman," Gen. John C^Sniith Hon. Reuben Ellwood. Geti. Chetlaii'», ,Ex Gov. Oglestiy, the French.Consul at Chicago, whose name we do not. remember, Hendersliot, the Drummer Boy of the Rappahannock, and quite a number of others whose names we cannot row call to mind. Each made short addresses, which listened to with marker! attention by' the large crowd fn attendance. FLORAL HALL. , The beautiful arrangements"of Floral Hall was remarked by all. Everv foot of space wa« occupied and everything was arranged in the most tasty manner The great dlsniav In this Department warned .the Society that an enlarge­ ment, of this building wM "i'llMsessary before another year. * H paintings. • At the North end of Agrlcultiiral Hall were.hung a collection of P/iint- ing* hyMisg Clara B. Owen* and we must say thatsnoone thing uVbe Fair jittracted so much attention or brought out so iriany favorihle comments. The collection comprised the follow! 114 pictures; ••'Cattle going to" labor." "Birth- of tiie Virgins," "Plowing Match,*' "'"Faun and Nymph." "The Gleaners.** •"Fruit Piece." "Flower piece--Daises from St Cloud," "Por­ trait of ' t.^e ( Princess Marguerite, daughter of Philip iv oi Spain," a "Game Piece -- Rabbit and French p!iP! ,„aSBl;'* "I'litfrj!( nf f»l.)j!ils .HmiI.'* "1 landscape." "Va»e and Fruit."1 Each and every one of tiie above were mas-, ter works of Aft. and Miss Owen will have just cause to feel proud "of her work when she learns of the high praise awarded to it by the best judges in the land. We saw fl ,*»» Blue Ribbons, (first premliiiiisjattached to her pic­ tures. ° , There were- :many other things " at the Fair which we would like to not'lee but space would not permit. The offi­ cers of the Society, and especially Sec­ retary Wright anil -Superintendent Palmer, are entitled'" to great praise, for to their personal exerjlons is due Jlie grand success achieved.

Thk tine«t line of trunks in town at Henry Colby's, ' ; You told me the other night that, when you had time you would tell me ftome more about the editor. Have you got time tw-nlght? v Yes. my srtu. we will talk abont the editor to-night. * Since yon told tne about the editor he must have hild a good deal'of ' prac­ tice in try! 11 j; to write pie«>es for his paper. Can he write an estray notic^ yet? Hardly, my boy; and T 'am awry to" say that his friends fear that lie will never learn to do It. or write Anything else, poor man. vYmf told'me before that when he wanted.pieces for Ins paper, he called on the "commander of all the troops In Woodstock." the "hero of Elinira" apd the "Public Administrator of tycHenrv Comity." Did they write all the pieces that have been printed In his paper since? - .. No, my child; for about, that Mine he organized a large editorial stsffl • com­ posed of the ones T«told you about, and the " Abstractor," the man who irnag- jnes he owns the mail route between f'hlcago and Fort Howarfl. and the "special" correspondent to the Chicago Time* from Woodstock, who, niy son. is perhaps the most brilliaut writer lit this part of the State, : ̂ 1 was read!ng a piece In hla paper a wliife ago about a "pension ring." Can'you tell me who wrote that piece? I expect that I can. niy hoy. It was the commander of all the troops in Woodstock, who Is the ex-pedagogue and shyster-at-law that I told you about., though there are people who are well posted that sav" they know that the owner of the mail route wrote it. • Do you think that the editor read that piece before it whs printed in his Mrs. J, R. Hyde contentpljitgf , kearly visit to Colorado, an paper! No, my elilUl. he could not have read It'for the editor was an -applicant for an in v.-vHsl pension at. the time, and tiie man whom his paper claimed was chief of this "pension ring" was Ills at torney, hi sides you know that this piece about the "pension ring" stated these men whom they called the "pen­ sion ring" had got pensions fpr men who had passed a rigid examination for life insurance, when the editor himself had passed such an examina­ tion, after he had made his application for au invalid pension iuwhich he had toPswear that he was unsound, which goes, my son, to prove that lie could not have read the piece bcfqre It was printed In his paper. How did these men whom the piece said belonged tci the "pension ring," l i k e i t ? • - f p ' ̂ - They did not like Itfor the attorne'v and ail examining surgeon whom the piece said beiongel to the "pension ring" put some pieces in another paper vvtih*ti tiw eilt%oi^«rtW Not answer and so lie called on the man who wrote it to "go for" them, hut lie went back on »,|ie editor, as dlfi all the others, and the pieces written by tl»e attorney and suf-geon have never been answered, for the editor and his staft had found/that tlie3r were bad men to "go for." Who else belonged to this pension ring? Every soldier In the county who lost au arm or leg, or lost his health while in the service of hi® country, and the widows and orphans who lost a hus­ band or father who died of disease, while in the service, or in consequence of wounds received in battle or was killed while fighting in defense of his country. These, my son. ami the man who represents this district in Congress who did only hfs duty in as­ sisting tlie soldiers iu this matter were considered by the editor's paper as be- lon«Mng to tjie "pension ring."' Did the editor take an active part In the last-campaign? Yes. my hoy. hut not In ills paper? for it only supported one man and he got badly left a< did every man whom lie supported outside of his paper. What did he "say about that? With his usual amount of "gall" he claimed a victory I'or the "combina­ tion." when it I* well known that not a* single man whom Hie "Sonthworth- gleiinon Combination" aupported were nominated. Does this editor's paper always state the truflif If it suits his purpose better than a lle lt sometimes does. thnu.zh during the last campaign lie allowed Ills prej­ udices to get the better of what little judgment lie had and often printed statements that he knew were gross lies, " '. , Is the editor a happy man ? One would think, my boy, to hear him whistle and siifg hymns that he was. I. Is the editor a good singer? He would be, my son. If any one could tell what time lie was trying to sing. My old head is getting, weary mv child, and we will adjourn unti' another evening when I will giye . von a lesson about the "Sent ine l masher." NEW MILLINERY STQEE, A t N u n d a . MRS. G. W.
