In my last, I promised to say something
rif the Ohio State Fair, which was held at
Dayton City on the 21st, 22d and 23d ult
being the fourth annual State Fair held in
Ohio. The weather was favorable aud the
attendance very large. As I was not pres
ent, I will have to rely upon the reports of
others. Mr. Gtfst, the Recording Secretary,
made a few rcmarks,in which he stated that
the " cash receipts of the Fair amouuted
to $14,000, aud that iu this respect the
State Hoard of Agriculture had been well j
pustaiued." Mr. Gost then adverted to j
the meagre display iu the Mechanical, j
Manufacturing aud Domestic departments j
of the exhibition, aud prououuecd the j
lucagrencss a " disgrace to the Miami j
country." The people in the immediate i
vicinity of the Fair were strangely neglect- I
ful of iu interests. The Dayton Mcc-han- !
ies were too fearful of Ciiieiuuati conipe- '
tition to make an effort, and the consc- j
quenee was the mtguifioeut display of f
empty boxes, j
The Stock department was equal to any j
farmer State Fair, and the attendance of ;
. people was larger than was expected. j
The Cleveland 11 rail says : " In the
absence of Senator Pearce, Maryland, the '
Board called upon Geo. Wright, of Indiana, !
to fill the vacancy. Well did he do it. !
Geo. W. is a pleasant, ready speaker, and 1
Lis extempore address, of about an hour, :
was listeued to with interest by a all who j
could stand in hearing distance. The ad- ;
dress was plain aud practical, and eminent
ly adapted to the occasion."
The premiums consisted of 152 silver
goblets, 64 silver pitchers, 125 silver med
als, two of gold, $50 each, and 75 of bronze,
which were awarded to the respective suc
cessful competitors. The next State Fair
will be held at Zanesville.

ceeding forty dollars on thirty days' notice, and if above tbat
sum, on three months' notice.
Section 7. That the stockholders of the said Savings
Institution shall lie individually liable for the dibts of the tame,
which liability shall be enforced in the niauner provided for
the enforcing the individual liability of stockholders of banks
by the act of the sixteenth day of April, Auno Doniiui ono
thousand eight hundred and fifty, entitled " Au Act regula

tution who shall embezzle or appropriate to his own use,
without authority, any of the fuuds of said institution shall

A dispatch to the X. T. Times, states
that au important order, to carry into ef
fect the British scheme for the Cuban ap
prenticeship system and emancipation, baa
beeu in the hands of Captain General Ca
nedo for some time, but that fearing it
would produue excitement, he took the re
sponsibility of withholding it, except from
a few wealthy planters, to whom it was
communicated confidentially. There ia not
a shadow of doubt that these arrangements
for the Africanization are thoroughly com
pleted, and that the planters in the secret,
confilcntly expect an ample supply of ap
prentices from Africa, by Britisu vesacd
