Among the articles in this building 'that attracted no small amount of attention, 'was a basket' of sweet potatoes grown by T. F. ESPY, of Rummerfield. They-were large in size, round and 'plump in appear ance; and having - tested their qualities as to flavor, we sniper the opinion that Brad ' iprd County cats produce as good ".fruit" of this description as we buy in !ler eign " markets of New Jersey.

The Eureka was awarded the first premix um. R. M. WELuts exhibited a number otplows and Chitin Powers, which were clileely - inspected by farmers.

Corm, of Troy, had two splendid Ayr alike bulls, 1 and 3 years old. These ex-_ hibitors deserve much credit for their en terprise in bringing their cattle such a distance to add to the attractions of the Fair. It is an indication of the interest taken in Westeni Bradford, in the intro duction and raising of -good stock-an interest which has made that section of the county celebrated for its blooded stock, and for the extent and' excellence of its dairy products.

In closing our report of .the Fait,.."„we again wish to say that it is far from being full,• and that undoubtedly we ave failed to make mention of many exhts worthy of particular notice. We trust that in arranging and placing the Otries at the next Fair, every exhibit tc(Il be distinctly marked with the name of the exhibitor and such: other lan as will do away with the necessity of asking question. bluch time w spent by visitors in endeavoring to get lin as forma tion (often unsuccessfully). which might have been imparted upon a small cant, conspicuously posted.

The pencil drawing of a dpg, by Jun ius; DOUGLAAN in the educational depart meat, was much admired, as was also the head of Wouncrrott,"drawn by Atrintm WELLEs. Mr. MORRIS, of Susquehanna county, represented the State Society at the Fair. Mr: M. is a member of the House of Rep resentatives, and is thoroughly posted on , all matters relating to agriculture. The two black bears chained near the southern limits of the grounds attracted much attention. They were brought from Sullivan county, and are about one year old. • The officers of the Society were untir ing in their labors to promots its.suess. They are entitled.to great , credit, as the only reward they get is the nleasure of knowing that they hive contributed to, the welfare of the Farmers, and thereby advanced the prosperity of the entire community. They may have failed to satisfy every one, but if they did, it was not because of the lack of an earnest de sire.to do justice to all. The management and direction of an Exhibition like the .one of last week is no small task, involv, ing a vast amount of labor and the loss of much time, .all of which was freely given without the expectation of fee or reward. Ample allowance should be made for. the hasty manner in which all the business had to be transacted, and it should be the aim of all'interested at these exhibitions to aid the - manager's in the performance of their arduous and perplexing duties._. Now that the Fair is over, and oar fanners have returned to their homes, it will be in order to talk over the incidents of the occasion and draw from it such benefits as it is calculated to bring. Eve ry intelligent farmer, desirous of elevating his calling and of adding to his pleasure and profit, cannot fail to have observed something which added to his. stock of information and gave him useful and val uable hints for his future guidance. fie will also find in the columns of the BE PORTEIi every week a department devoted to Agricultural matters, which we will guarantee Will be worth more to him in the course of the year than ono slollar— . the price of subscription. bonfectioneiy establiahmen , received a large patronage. , .
