The annual Fair rit the Jackson Agrieultu. ral Sciei'ery was held at Jaek . sun Centre, .Oet. 14, The day was fine, and the crowd in attend ance gave evidence that the people in all ye t lrs of the Corny wlsle'd to see how a Town Fair looAed. The number of entries of different kinds of articles fer competition, showed also that the Farmers in adjoining, towns, as well as those of Jackson felt an in tere't in its success. This ie the second -an maid Fair of the Society ; and yet, the pew le, as. was reniatke l d by. Mr. Bushnell, were 'wed not by hundreds but by thousands. The uttmist good feeling prevailed, and - no ,serious accident occurred to -Mar th' _enjoy ments of the day.' The-Society had expect ed to secure a Speaker from abroad, but, fail• fog; the audience was entertained with Speech es'from the - Rev. V. W: Welch and Albert Bu-bnell, Esq.. .The Choir of Jat'kson also "clidributed.very materially to the-eidertaiu: meat by deb-ghtdid music both vocal and M.' 7 strumental.

At 12 o'clock the game commenced, Mr. Murphy playing.fi. , at, and calling out the Same move fur all the eight boards, lir2. (The games Were conducted in French, Mr. Murphy speaking.

During the entire game Which lasted just 'ten hours, Mr. Morphy - sat with his kneel, and eyes against the bare wall, - never onet:' rising or looking toWard the audience, nor even taking a particle of drink 'or other 're freshment, His only movements were those of crossing his legs bola side to side, and , occasi onally thumping a tune with his fingers on. he arms of the fauteuil.- He cried out his moves without turning his head, Aphis !, 2,3, and 6.and 7, who were not up to the standard of the other three , players, he fre• quently made his'mnve inStantaneously.after receiving theirs, 11.4 r was calm throughout, and never made a mistake, nor did'he call move twice. It must be recollected, more over-that Mom phy played "against the fi eld" . —in other-words,' that arou nd each of the eight boards there was a large :collection of • exeellent chess.players, who gave their advice freely, and who 'had eight times bruger to study their play in than tlteingle player.— He played certainly against men, and they never ceased for a moment making sup posed moves and studying their game roost thoroughly during the long intervals that necessarily fell into each board. And yet Morphy -who Was out of sight of these eight boards, saw the game plainer on each than those : who surrounded them ! I could scarce ly have believed die thing possible if-1 had not seen it. At the end of the gaine there was a shout fronithe three hundred throats present, which made one believehe was, back again in old Tammany Hall. The tiiet there was a considerable number of English: men and Americans Present, (among the let ter was-Professor Morse, who took a deep interest •in this extraordinary gaine,),. but: much the larger number were French. Mor- I phy did not seem at all fatigued, and appear e'>, so modest, that the frenzy and admiratin of the French knew no bounds. He wits shaken by the. hand' and complimented till he hung down his head in ;Confusion. One grey-haired old Man, an octogenarian them player, stroked . his hair with his hands, as he would a child of his own, and showered him. with terms of endearment: Murphy-has ipt beard yet, and looks more like a :s.chuul.hoy than a world's champion. He escaped• from the excited crowd as, soon its possible, and left with some-friend„ io gyt something to eat. It is not ne cessary to pbint out to che,,s players the immensity of the intellectual 'feat ; every one will admit that it borders upon We miraculous, and, as was reinai'ked by one of his antagonists, M. Lequesne, Such a mind never did exist, and perhaps, never will again." 1 DEMOCRATIC PROGREssibx.—The Albany Journal giv'es the followhigter,e and truth ful history of the advance of "Dernocratie" doctrine : • " The Democratic .party has had four dif ferent doctrines onihlavery; 14, the.
