A 'rival* oral Pair,
It will be been by the hid of premiums contuined
in this week's Reporter, that the Biathord County
'Agricultural Society will hold its first lair at this
place, on the 6th and 7th of October next. We are
satisfied from the interest exh.bited i that as the first
exhibition of the kind, it a ill be a creditable dis
play of the a4ricultural and tnechauteal arts of the
County.
There can be no gne;rtion viliatever of the utility
of such exhibitions, and it is discieditable that a
County containing within it so large an amount of
agricultural weal.h, Should have been so long with
out an Agricultural Society. We truer that this is
to be die first of a series of demonstrations x hich
will do much towards elevating and advancing the
great interest of this section, and we call upon those
engaged in it, to lend their utmost ettileavors to
give it a good.start
. It will be af,.ben that the Committee on premiums
have added to.,the lot of premiums, on butter,, and
also corrected the list of premiums on Sugar and
Itotey, Farming implements, Mechanical imple
ments andlirstritifictriniir,lanitl:Htruselthld manufac
tures, or stab competitors -will, take notice.
Farmer's relon Insurante Co.
This lii.urance Company, located at Athens, in
this County, is vow in full operation, and daily is
suing po:icie,i; The plan upon which it is organiz
ed cannot fail to be highly successful. Under its
regulation., risks are•only taken upon farm houses
or dwellings so isolated as not to be exposed from
adioining buildings. This plan must.secure the
Company from heavy losses which frequent occur
in villages, and guarantees perfect safety to the op.
erations of the Company. The officers and agents
as far as we know them them arecapableandcare
ful men, under whose management success is in
evitable. The Secretary is J. E. CANFIELD Esq., of
Athens, Pa.

his.tritut,.has given rise to a , bniar of indignant pa.
rriotism, and Congress is called upon tu.close with
the bargain offered. We hope that thememory of
Wssinsavos is as dear to us as to any American
citizen, that we havens high a regard for the great
services he has rendered, but it seems to as that
there are insuperable objections to the proposed
purchase of Mount Vernon by the Government,
while the price demanded for the property looks as
it his ancestors were demanding an extravagant
sum, and endeavoring to speculate upon the rever
ence with which the American people regard his
memory.
The estate of Mount Vernon is not worth in the
maiket, over twenty-five thousand dollars. It con•
silos of some drousand acres of worn-out lands up
on which the dims of slave labor have placed
their curse wi h the ancient marision, novr thlapida
red, a few negro hovels, and ruined out-buildnius.
The fences are',lown, and briars and wider-brush
grown up over much of the plantation. The oi der
and eultivat'.on which distinguished it iu Washing
tort's nine, have been succeeded by neglect and
decay, and its appearance is a matter of surprise
and !egret to every Visitor. Even the tomb which
is a shrine visited by thousands ) early, is ov e rgic,i
by briars, and the whole estate shows the marks of
thriftlessness and want of energy oh which the an•
ceatora of that great man should be ashamed
It is said that the present proprietor of bloun Ver
non is unable to retain it in his posression—and
one reason given is the expense neces,ary to eit-
twain the. crowd of visitors who throng to the place.
What expense is thus incurred, we have not learn- I
ed from the newspapers, neither did it suggest it
self when we had the pleasure of looking at the
tomb where repose the earthly remains ut Wash•
Melon. On the contrary, it is quite a source of re
venue to the proprietor, and in a manner hardly
less creditable than as a place of popular resort.—
Upon each passenger landed at the a hurl, he re
ceives a toll of twenty.five cents from the s team
' boat captain, while at every step, itegroes are met
• with, disposing of canes, ears of corn, bulbous roots,
and branches of box, by which many a dollar goes
into the pockets of the proprietor.
It shows a sad falling off in the spirit and chiral.
ry of the Ancient Dominion when the ancestors of
Washington are numbered amongst the crowd of
speculatoi• who ate endeavoring to deplete the
Treasury, and especially when to accomplish that
end, they place the bones of their ancestors in the
reale. There should be enough of family pride
lett, to prevent soch desecration . There are asso
ciatiocs connected With Mount Vernon which we
should be glad to see preserved hem the inroads of
speculators Upon its soil vest all that now, remains
of the earthlriaberracle of the Great W islungton,
and of his beloved wife, and many of lea descen
dants. Tajte quiet-and beauty he was wont to re
tire t r im the cares of,, State to seek .that.dornestic
inuiquility which was.more congenial to his. nature.
He has trod its walks, now cliplied with briars and
overgrown with weeds, contemplating die situation
of his Country, and lull of solicitude fur its welfare
Every room, every rood of ground, is hallowed with
•associariiris connectel with his memory, which
makes it sacred.
Because of this, shall Congress pay. an exorbitant

The decision I allude to was concerning the rela

the purport from alemuiy, I think it was I§Us, that
the tenant had carried his share of the crops, either
in its original.futrn or in the form of manure, !nom
off the premises rented—no written provision being
made tri the contrary. The landlord brought hie ac
tion to recover the value of the manure. The court,
on hid! of the issue, told the jury, tl they believed the
defendant wata tenant of the plaintiff, they inn,: hod
for the latter. The judgment was against defen
