_this
disease in our village, after an
for nearly twenty years. Those who re
member the horrors of the scourge, as it
prevailed in 1859, will feel deep regret
that it has again ,made its appearance
here... One thing is very favorable ; the
attacks so far have been light, and the
ivither warm and dry, , is, favorable for
those afflicted. There seems something
strange that the cases' are, so isolated and
in different parts of the town; so that 'it

.a grand display of eight head
of Ayrshirdibulls, cows and heifers. S.
4). 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.

A FEW NOTES AND SUGGESTIONS.

. 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

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

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

his calling and of adding to his pleasure
