Thuradaffuld 2 Friday, of -last *oak," slid was the most successful 'Exhibition °COB kind---both as yto number of exhibiti and number of people 'in attendance— . oiler heldin this County, if :not in :Northern. Tentisylvania. Binca the pureli...ge of the grounds on which -the exhibitions -are' held lfy, the Society, many imprOvements have been made in the arrangerniint there of by the Managers.' The fence enclosing the grounds has been extended north so as to take in a large portion o the plue grovelbat was formerly outside of the enclosure. This is a great improvement, andone that adds not only ,tnthe seacei :within the enclosure but giVestacilities for the' accommodation of the tearas of exhibitors and visitors, that the.grunnds have sadly needed in the past. Tbe Hotel building isulso now within the efielosure, • which does away ;with the, unsightly structure near the northern end of the 'grounds, heretofainused as the "Com missary department." Two gates—one near the hotel building and • ono ,at the nothern end of-. the :grounds—greatly facilitSto the ease of.ingress _ and egress of thev' kers to the show, and lessens the dau er of" accidents which -were liable to is occ r formerly When there was but one gate, through which evety. person and everything going onto Or-nit from the groundti *as forced to piss. The half mile track has been placed in excellent condition; and the. grand stand removed from its old location, to a more appFopri ate and sightly positionnearthe northern fence. Many other improvements have _been made .in the arrangement of the grounds and buildings, :which add much ' to the comfort of the visitors and no doubt to the convenience of the exhibit Ors. Whilst the weather this -year was not as pleasant as was that of last year, during: the continuance of the Exhibition,, yet thd number of exhibits was far iu excess of any , previous year, as was the attend ance of visit Ors.. The 'entries this year were 1317 ini number. .-"Last year. there were 026 anC-the year previous but 336. The number of tickats sold to visitors on Wednesday-was 150. Thuisday 4050,. and on Friday 2200. A tbtal of 6,400 for the three days. C - ompetent judges placed the number of people on'- the grounds on Thursday at 2 p. m. at between 6,000 and 7,000, and - Friday, -at: the same hour, there were no doubt between four And five thousand persona, present: : .

Visiting the grounds in the after- . noon we found the officers of the Society still basily.• engaged in receiving entries, whilst the noise of- the hammer and - saw gave the i'isiter . notice that the exhibitors were equally bmiy .in arranging their ex hibits for the inspection of the crowds that the iiiorroW would - bring to Mew them. It Was a busy .day On the grofinds, but every one seemed to be good-natured, and ready and Willing to impart informa tion—wi:Ulm) as to what :the weather would prove to be on Thutsday, the num ber of people who would be present, or the. - m`erits of any article entered fin- a premium. The officers of the Association; although called upon to auswerinnuner able questions, relevant and irrelevant, as 0 entries, by those. who weee making them and More who were not, they; were one and all . courteous and. obligin g to a degree that was remarkable ander, the circum gram:6. • : .

At an earlY hour in the morning the grounds began to fill:with visitors, and at noon the crowt - Luf People present was estimated to far ,exceed that in attend ance on anyday at any Previons l Fair in this county: The. crowd was a good-_ natured oner - -,had evidently . comb for a thy of sight-seeing and eitioyme;nt, and fully indulged in: both,. notwithstanding the weather was not exactly propitious. - Throughout' the entire day those who were fortunate enough town, or have 1)(-session .of, " speedy " borses,and not. a few that were not "speedy "—improv: ed the excellent condition of the track, in vain attempts to lower the record made by Maud S and -beat 2.;10.

As a .general thing the - animals were abort the average in bt,aut y and speed, iand,attract&ra great deal of attention. As tic visitors.left the grounds near-even ing fiir'their homes, all expressed therW 7 selves as of the opinion that the Fair-was the best one.ever held in the Citunty, and Ifetne se meti to regret . that the Annual Address, advertised to be - delivered at 2 p. in., had 'been omitted. - FRIDAY—THE LAST DAY, "1 : Was ,the finest,. so far as the weather was cimeerued, of 'any of . the *days of the ,Pair... The sky was .cloudless, the day. swarm and beautiful. An immense crowd ofl visitors was again preSent—larger by fat .than on the last day of any previous .
