gotal Onteltigtva. Trn GREAT GRAF FonTuNE.--Just at the close of the Gubernatoral campaign in .1.800, we addressed a Democratic meeting on Saturday afternoon in the lower end of 'Fulton county, this State, within a mile of the Maryland line. There was a similar meeting advertised for the evening at Hanqock, just over the border. By invita tion we attended that, and made a speech. After we had concluded a Mr. Elwin. , was introduced, who proceeded to advocate the claims of Bell and Everett. He announced himself as the editor of the Norfolk Ex aminer, and proceeded to abuse the Demo cratic pa43t; most soundly. After he had finished we replied to him, handling him without gloves. The next time we were in Hancock was the day after it had been bombarded by Stonewall Jackson, and our artillery was shelling the buildings on the opposite side of the river, while, in sight, but out of reach of our guns, the rebels were maimmvering on the high hills which form the Virginia shore of the Potomac at that point. we saw nothing of Mr. Ewing, and heard nothing of him until, happening to mention the circumstance to a party of friends in a Baltimore hotel, during the • McClellan campaign, we were somewhat sot prised to see the quondam Bell-Everett orator start out ore seat and approach us. We had not teen speaking of him in very complimentary terms, but he was as pleas ant anti smiling as if our intercourse had alw a ys b,,,, of tie- oast illtifnatO and friendly character. Ile informed usthat he had been ruined by the war, and his paper di•continued, and Unit be was r 01,4.1 to emigrate to the tqty of Baltimore. The next time we set eyes nit him Wits in inlr office here or Lancaster. A plausible, well dressed gentleman bowed himself into our sanctum one line morning last summer, and proceeded to detail to us his plan for securing an immense fortune for the t;raff, geese, collor t; rave faintly, which was nn: `: awaiting their claim somewhere in I :ernially. We heart him for some time, Le ant re''ognizing us. At last we called his attention to t fOr1114•1' meetings, :mil he \VHS 11,1 , 4110. d, :11,1"11,11Ily, to 1,111,W ti. 11 , fillaIntance. ale propo,ed that. get up an editorial till the sultject or the Graf fortatue, us, with that iv , ' should I, reuleolliered in a sub stautiat wittitier. int . ..ruled that it WaS hle purp.,se to go to to see afoul the Inn( tor a: Sfroll;isa SUM StllliCiOnt to i!t•iray expenses tin teen realized, iice.trtling to his state ment he lent :iri•lnly !Won bilite sac CO,sflii In tattainitig inom.y from parties who suppo , ed th , •y were in the regular line of descent. \V!• could not exactly see it, as the hors sav, and Ito line ever Alp•llreil in the hi s teibgeMCCr favoring:NlT'. liv'ing's pro ject. 01l I lit eve of the celebrated gathering of the Ilan, Grid .

SOCIETY.—For many years there has been no exhibition held in this county, of the various fruits which can be produced in our midst. This is much to be regretted, as these exhibitions cause our citizens to turn their attentton to such matters, and by the stimulus of competition nod the desire which is produced to exhibit fine specimens, the cultivation of luscious and rare fruits is much promoted. It fs said that the pro ductionof flowers is one of thh surest tests of a kindly and gentle nature, and we think that the same may be said of the cultivation of fruit. The exhibition in the Orphans' Court Room at the Court House, on Satur day, was very largely attended during the day and evening. Notwithstanding the unfavorableness of the season, the display of grapes was very fine. There were many very fine specimens of the pear, and we were glad to see so much success in the cultivation of this noble fruit. The show of apples was rather inferior. Lancaster county, once so ramous for her apples, has lost her reputation. The list of vegetables was very meagre. The tables were beau tifully decorated with choice varieties of beautiful flowers, presented by the Lady friends of the Society. Afterthe exhibition was over the members of the Society did full justice in testing the qualities of the luscious fruits which had been lying so temptingly on the tables during the day. Below will be found a list of the pribcipal varieties of fruit exhibited, with the names of the persons whose care and industry produced them: Concord, Alva, Delaware and Taylor's Bullet Grapes, by C.
