LOCAL AND PERSONAL.
FAIR of lhe Bedford County Agr.cultural
Society, held in this place on Wednesday, Thursday
and Friday °f last week, was largely attended by
, op i e from every part of the county. On Tburs
,'jav our streets were thronged t\ilb crowds of spec
tators ami exhibitors.
The display of machinery was very good. Among
•be many useful articles on exhibition in this depart
c|lt we noticed aCorn and Cob Mill, presented by
our tiiends Blymire and Hartley.
The live stock was of superior breeds, and a nutn
iJfr of fine horses were shown off by their o'n
ers,
The fruits, vegetables, &c., we have never seen
c -passed anywhere. This department was also tol
erably full-
Quite an array of fancy articles, forming a very
elegant and tasteful display, was arranged in the
brand Jury Room in the Court House.
Next week we will publish the list of premiums
awarded at this Fair, in which will be given the
names of the persons to whom those premiums were
adjudged.
IYE PAID a visit, the other day, to Stuglr's ATu -
...j, which has been holding forth iri our town du
ring the last week, and which con-i-ts (as we an
nounced a short time ago) ot minerals, fo-sils, Indi
en relics, beasts of prey, birds, reptiles, insects, &c.,
collected in this county. Among other curiosities
to be seen at this Museum, is a small smooth stone on
which is carved an image of the human face. This
Mr. Slag'.e pronounces an "Indian Idol, or god."—
'.Vearenot well enough "booked" oti Indian mythol
ogy, to give an opinion on the subject, hut errtcx,
antiquai .ans have often told us more incredible
things than this. Mr. S. tells us that the stone wa
•r.uad about two miles from the limits of our bor
ough.
WE WERE SHOIVX, a few days ajjo, a
specimen of some very fine molasses made out
of the Chin-'se sugar cane, by Mr. Samuel Car
ney of this county. e are informed that Mr.
Carney made 6 gallons and d quarts of this ma-
Usses out of 3*2 stalks of cane! If this new
vegetable continues to grow in favor with the
agriculturists of our country, as it has during
the last year, :t w ill at no distant day, become
one of the staples of the fanner.
.IV ATHLETIC FRIEXD of ours once
had a "rough and tumble" fight with a large
tame black b-ar. Bruit), having been confined
in a small enclosure, for a long period of time,
bad become stiff and awkward, and therefore,
cameout ol the fray, rather "the worse for the
wear." Our friend being asked why he did
not finish the bear, when he had rendered him
hors tie combat , replied, that he would have
done so, but, out of considerations lur his own
family, the bear having been raised with them,
he concluded lie would not kill him. A man of
"phine pheeiinks," wasn't he ?
THE AMERICAN' mare, Prioress, beaten
about two months ago for the Goodwood Cup,
won the Crsari witch Cup, in the late race at
New market, England. The American horse,
Lecompte, is dead.
THEGREAI MOXEY PAXIC is seizing
hold of the commercial affairs of the Biitish
nation. The "crisis," has become a regular epi
demic.
THE "AMERICAX AGRICULTURIST
for November, is on our table. It is filled to
the brim with interesting articles on every
variety of Agricultural subjects. It contains
thirty large three column pages and is gotten up
io good style. Orange J mid, New York City,

Sbe was a member of the M. E. Church upward(r*"sf

found her ready tor her solemn change. Perfectly
rational, and conscious that her end was nigh, her
dying utterance was one of holy triumph. "If this

exhorted her husband to meet her in Heaven.
So passed away the wife and mother. On earth
her loss is keenly telt and mourned; but in heaven
there is giadness over another spirit safe at home.
