Tnn SuNBUHY Faih. Tho Agricultural Fair
to be bald at this place on ths 85th, 2Glu and 87th
of this month, promise to far exceed that of
Inst year. The trotting course Is being fitted up
in the best mamior, and no e (Torts are spared to
make It the largest and best course la central

prominent citizens bnvo taken thu matter In
hand, and will, we are certain, meet with their
usual good success la getting up a fair that will
surpass every thing heretofore witnessed In this
county. The premiums offered aro most liberal,
and our agricultural friends will bo amply To
warded by bringing all kinds of products for ex

season, will give a Sue opportunity to show the
great improvement In the lower end of the coun
ty lu all kinds of fruit, and that tho citizens
have not becu neglecting Horticultural pursuits.
The mechanical department, we aro Informed,
will bo fully represented, while the other depart
ments will be made to excel any former efforts
lu tho county. We have long been satisfied that
this end of the county can produce as good stock
as can bo found any whero In the State, aud ns
the officers of this fair are oferlng such liberal
premiums, we hope to see every farmer nnd me
chnnlc place upon exhibition specimens of their
genius and labor. Some beautiful specimens of
handiwork by ladies from Rush, Shumokin vnl
lcy, nud tho Mahanoys, which wo havo not seen
sui passed by any ut other fairs, are expected to
be brought here on exhibition, which will make It
an.lnducctncnt for Indies to visit and mark tho
great Ingenuity displayed by their own sex'.
With the exertions made ou tho part of our citi
zens to make exhibitors and visitors comforta
blewe deslro our friends in tho country to bring
every thing worthy of exhibiting, and let us see
what progress has been mudo lu every branch ol
agriculture nnd trade.
The New Colkt Hoise Clock. As tho new
tower clock, ordered for the court nonse, will be
hero In the course of a week, u description of its
character will, no doubt, be Interesting to many
of our readers. The dials w ill be of beuvy plate
glass, ground on both sides, nnd figured with n
hole lu the centre, for Illumination at night. The
clock was made by E. Howard, & Co., of Bostou,
celebrated for their superior American watches
and clocks. The wheels arc of hard hammered
brass, arbors mid pinions of cast steel, uml the
frame entirely of Iron. Tlie escapement is u
Graham dead beat, (the very best for a tower
clock,) automatic retaining power, pendulum
hung with double spring, regulates at the top,
and h is a joint Willi taugeut screws to put til
beat. Each set of dial works has two sets of
universal joints, and an automatic arrangement
to prevent any binding or pinching by expansion,
coulraciion or settling of the wood work of tlie i
buildiii!
Tho striking pait is a repealer, to
that the time nud the striking will always keep ;
together. Tlie hummer lever is operated from I
tlie main wheel Willi hardened steel friction rol- J
lers. The striking part lias a double linked 1
i
chain tested ten times tlie weight required tor
the clock ; time pail lias a w ire cord of tlie best
make. The pulllcs have a hollow axle to con
tain sullicicnt oil to last some time, a good point, I
as they are usually so situated as to be hard to
get at.
