We have not yet seen the list of premiums awarded and recite these from memory of reports read on the grounds.

An immense crowd was in at tendance each day and not a single accident or unpleasant occurrence of any kind mar; red the pleasure of those in attendance. AH seemed to enjoy the occasion and embrace the opportunity for an exchange of kindly greetings with old friends and acquaintances. We understand that it has already been deter mined to hold another fair next year and that timely notice will be given for the fullest pre paration. These yearly gatherings always re sult in substantial benefit iu exciting eraula" tion and thereby leading to improve ment and progress, among a worthy class of our community whose calling neces sarily prevents frequent communication with their more distant neighbors.

This invaluable tonig, will chase Hypochondria or "the Blues" —give tone to the damaged nervous system —gently stimu late languid secretions—dispel vapors and ennui, and generally build up the worn con stitution. For each sex and all ages it is a gentle stimulant and refreshing cordial. , Millions of bottles are sold daily all over the j world. THE following is the reason why shooting stars didn't appear when expected: "When the mologiaisiio temperature of the horizon is such as to cloricise the imperient identation of the hemisphere analogy, the cohesion of the borax enrbistus becomes surcharged with infinitesimals, which are thereby virtually de prived of their fissurial disquisitions. This effected, a rapid change is produced in the thoramouper of the gymhasticustus polerium, which causes a couvacuiar in the hexagonal autibathes of the terrustrium aqua of eere mouclar light, which can only be seen when it is visible."

This great medicine cured by Dr. J. U. Schcnck the proprietor, of Pulmonary Consumption, when speedy death appeared to be inevitable. His phy sicians pronounced his case incurable, when he commenced the use of this simple but powerful remedy. His health was restored in a very short time, and no return of the disease has been appre hended, for all the symptoms quickly disappear ed. and his present weight is more than two hun dred pound*. Since his recovery he has devoted his attention exclusively to the care of Consumption, and the diseases which are usually complicated with it, and the cures effected by his medicines have been very numerous and truly wonderful. Dr. Schcnck makes professional visits to several of the larger cities weekly, where be has large concourse of pa tients, and it is truly astonishing to see poor con sumptives that have to be lifted out of their car riages, and in a few months healthy, robust per sons. Dr. Schcnek's Pulmonic Syrup, Sea Weed Tonic an.l Mandrake Pills are generally all re quired in curing Consumption. Pull directions accompany each, so that any one can take them without -ecing Dr. Scheack, but when it is cenvo nient it is best to see him.
