It was dusk when we arrived, and the chaDge from hot streets to the cool, moist sea-air was refreshing and delightful. After supper the conductor of the train accom panied me through the saud and bushes to old Neptune's domain. The sea was quite : calm, and the surf was singing its lullaby more gently than usual like the muffled echo of siorm-dashings on some far-off, inaccessible thorc.

From Camden out some miles are cultivated farms and plea sant villages ; but the latter part of the route leads mostly thro' continuous pine barrens, relieved by occasional clearings and glass works; which barrens, however, though the sheltering home of foxes, deer, bears, and other wild animals, are not arid and valueless wastes, incapablo of being reclaimed. They have been in a great measure denuded, by tho iron works, of their original forest pincs,which have been replaced by a dense and vigorous growth of younger trees and bushes ; streams are numerous, and pure, sjft water can be ob tained anywhere by sinking wells a few feet deep.

SECOND ANNUAL FAIR OF THE Union Coanty Agricu'taral Society. The second exhibitiou of this associa tion at Lewisburg, on Thursday and Fri- day of last week was very cncourigmg, both as respects the number in at tendance, and the animals and products of the W est Branch. Chulisquaque and iSIil ton furnished several contributors, and very many spectators. We regret to add, that our friends at Selinsgrove, contribut ed not a thing to the exhibition our Cattle, Grain, Vegetables, Fruit, and Dai ry Products, there was a mqst cheering advance. After the rich, large and abun dant Fruits we saw lost week, we no longer deem Buffaloc Valley deficient ic at least some appreciators of the value and the facility of Fruit raising. The Cabinet of the University was thrown open to public inspection, and was visited by most of those present. With a little more time devoted to arranging the various rooms of the building, it is doubt less the most commodious and attractive ediGce to be found for such purposes out side of the cities. The Yard comprised two acres, enclosed by a board fence seven feet high, with hitching posts, stalls, pens, &c., conven iently arranged, and all securely guarded by two watchmen at night. The expense to the citizens of the liorough for these arrangements, and the furnishing of hay, ie., for the cattle, was about $100. Tho receipts for admittance were some thing like 8200, and with tho cash on hand and other receipts place tho Society in a condition to meet every demand promptly, with ample means to enlarge her premium list materially for another year. (We may mention, that several Li . ral gentlemen of Lewisburg offered the Snei ety, (to admit all without charge) a sum equal to the probable amount she would receive by charging for admittance ; but the Officers decliued altering tho published regulations, generally believing that tbe substantial intercuts of those most inters- tcd,would, in the long run, bo best promo- . tod by requiring from those pleased and benefited by the exhibition, some share in j The Conttnciitah, a military company from j Tannq'n, who dress in the costume of the j American Army of '70, and, marching to the music of the f.fe and drum, they exci- ted most stirring thoughts of the noble men of other days. Unfortunately, although repeatedly published, most of our citizons bad for gotten the Ad Iress by Prof. Miss, Thurs day cvening,and but a small number heard it. His remarks were cutircly practical, and we wish could have been heard by every farmer in the two counties. His points were deep ploughing, a guard against the evils of drnnght,aad also against too much moisture the preservation of manures aud the philosophy of draiuing all arable lands by means of porous pipes live feet belo the surface. We will men tion one fact, to show the bencGts of deep plowing. Prof. Mapr-s, tear Ntwaik, N. J., plows 17 inches deep and follows that with an instrument which stirs the earth 17 inches deeper still.

Indeed, it is looked upon, Hltu ailiiosb uuaiiotu picosuru iy ttii, mingled with a hope that another Fair, at the same place, and that soon, may tend to bring out still more general contribu tions, aud from a wider circuit. , , 11 1 1 1 tl Our position for two years past has precluded us from much personal knowl edge of the materials contributed, and we arc therefore unable to add anything of importance to the Official Keports of the J udges, to be found below. These J udges may in the eyes of partial friends have committed errors in various cases ; but they no doubt acted with a sincere desire to favor all as much as possible and their decisions should be frankly acquiesced iu by the less successful, with a determination not to be discouraged ; for it is this very resolution to excel, which excites inquiry and investigation, stimulates exertion, cre ates improtemcnts, and thus benefits the competitors iu various ways, whether they be successful or unsuccessful iu obtaining premiums. Were no premiums ever paid, the very sight of improved breeds aud products once a year, would more than pay all trouble aod costs incurred in main taining these associations. Among the curiosities we noticed, wero silk cocoous, and a cotton pod in close proximity, the former the result of the la bors of Mrs. Ncvius, and the latter raised by Geo.
