But, it would be impossible to particularise them, on- ac count of their number and variety. This Hall, Wo believe, was erected by tile Society at an early period of its organization, and has nothing specially to'recommend it for architectural beauty, either outside nor inside ; but, it is well adapted to the purpose intended, except that it is entirely too small to accommodate the largo crowds that now throng our County Fairs, find should bo en larged. In this Department Of the Fair, the largest contributor Was Mr. A. B. Ewing, who had on exhibition a fine assortment Of furniture, got up in his usual elegant style. He occu pied the middle part of the Hall With an In valid Spring lied, made of walnut; and highly finished; the raattrass was of curled bait dt the lop, and a palm-leaf bottom.

In closing bur report, wo cannot totf stfongly toirtmcml tho Officers and Managers of the Society, for tho perfect system and gobd brd r which characterised the entire exhibition. True, there was a greater num ber than usual of those outside shows which gcQerallyjrullow fn the wake of Agricultural Fairs;, Monstrosities, iu the shape of “Fat Woman,” “The man that swallows a sword,” Venomous looking Serpents gyrating round an equally venomous looking ydiiug lady: “Oosmofamic views,” and au “African Man drill,” where, if- wc believe the “blower,” who “ stuntped it” nil day nt the door ofthd tent,-they had a Frofcasorof Natural History expressly engaged to enlighten the public as as to this wonderful animal. Some of these “shows” were mere blinds to cover certain gambling arrangements ; but they werd dis covered and promptly arrested by the Bur gess, Mr. Campbell. 'Within the grounds, however, everything passed off quietly • The door keepers, polled and others engaged iu cai rying out the di rections of the managers, were polite, atten tive and vigilant; and, notwithstanding the dense crowd which was pressing on them, there was no undue excitement. To show that this Fair has been the most successful of any yet held in this county, wo’ need only refer to the fact, that the receipts this year, by far, exceed that of any former year; the amount realized for season tickets, and single admissions, being 5?3,44p,U0, and although^lh’o'expenses of the Society have been heavy, in l reCttipg .the buildings nnd 'grounds, which had been very much iujured While Used asquarters for Volunteers ; there is still a handsome surplus in - the Treasury for contemplated.lmprovements,‘before the 1 next annual meeting. - .
