eyes : and the subdued stillness of the' large
audience only proved 60 dear he has become

The following resolutions wore presented

him, and mutually shared his responsibilities

' in conformity with President Arttfur's pro

As the speakers referred to the noble acts and,
heroic deeds of our martyred .christian I‘2l
- many cheeks were wet with tears, ,and we
trust,a fervent prayer went up to the throne of
God, from hearts ilid&ine presence—that his
afflicted faintly may belblest and comfortedAn
this- their greatest trial, and that'hlippiness and
prosperity may still bless our mourning country.

It wai our privilege in company with a friend
to attend the public gathering at Leßsysville, on
Monday, id accords.* with pubis notice pre.
viol:oily giien, as slut tribute of respect to our
honored and lamented President. - Long before
the i hour a ppointed for the exercises, the people
began to congregate in the grovi a little west of
the! +Allege, anti by 1 o'clock sgveral hundred,
irrespective of : party tics, had convened and were
exchanging friendly greetings and conversing in
subdued tones upon the great calamity which
had l brotht them together; no boisterous man
tletatione, but a " deep feeling of 'sorrow and
gri f for the Ration's loss.. 'At 1:30 P. 11., the
Ho . George Landon, the members of tho Post
;0. . R., preceded by the. Lailaysville Band,
marched at the .tap of the muffled drum to the
Speakers • stand. After being quietly seated, a
dirge was played by the hand,tushing to silence .
the vest audience—many' bowing their heads in
deeti . emotion. The Rev. Mi. Morris next offered
a fervent prayer, imploring divine aid in this
our Nation'i,grest distrpss, and invoking the
bieesiug andiguidance of theHreat Ruler of the.
universe in our NatiOnall?2nneils.
lion. George.Laudon tken delivered tlte Mem
orial address—or rather eulogy. The Ilonoraide
speaker seemed to be laboring under the game
great emotional influence with his audience,
which was quite noticesb*; yet, as usual, he ac
quitted himself admirablr. In his eulogy the
speaker held up to view the life scenes and
struggles of our late President, and endeavored
to impress it upon the minds of the young to
emulate his many virtues, and like him, to be,
coig) shining lights. The speaker said by the
-wickedness of the wicked" we have lost our
President ! that the fires of h-1 were kindled
and burning behind the bars around (Mean in
his cell by night and by day. To-day, said the
speaker, "about _this hour" is being woven, a
golden thread in the history of our Nation. That
while on the shores of Lake Erie is being per-
formed the last sad rites in the burial of the
'body of our President, and mourning Lein our
land; his memory, his noble deeds and chrisilan
example and fortittide in suffering—all will be
cherished in the hearts of his cotuitrymen; and
Trom his ashes shall rise many who shall feel the
influence and inspiring sea! to le:ul them on
to greatness. .
Fifty-five minutes was the time sot by the
speaker, and he wished to be so timed in which
to wind up his remarks, but before the time ex
pired, the tinier, speaker and audience had for
gotten all about time, and - nearly an hour and
three-fourths. was occupied in his remarks—no
restlessness or.wearinesi being manifested. At
the close the band played a requiem and the audi
ence dispersed, - feeling the day was profitably
spent and would result in good.

Joseph E. Piollet, has been President of the
Society for the past six years, and has untir
ingly devoted his time and energies, with the
efficient aid of the other annual officers in
placing the Society on a. firm basis as a
permanent tad successful institution. Tak
ing a retrospective view of the annual fairs
of the Society for the past six yeats, we see
that material progress his heen made. The
spacious grounds have been purchased, and
with the receipts of the fair just closed, the
Society will no doubt be 'able, to
pay what is now due on the ixdunds
and improvements. Being out of debt,
a more liberal scale of premiums _.can
be arranged•for each year. which we have no
doubt will largely increase the number and
variety of exhibits.
We notice in detail as many of the exhibits
of the fair as our space will permit. If
any are omitted it is not by design. It would
require our entire space, and, a I labor we can
ill afford, to maki and publish a full report
to detail of the entire exhibition. We make

. A. D. DYE & CO.
Wo think we aro safe in saying that no Such
exhibit of stores was ever made by any single
firm at any of our Agricultural Fairs torwas
shown by this enterprising company, at our
late county Fair. The largo building they
erected last year. for their exhibits, was filled
_with stores of various kinds. Some of the
kitchen and heating stoves had fire in them, to
show how perfectlY, .they could be worked
when in actual use. iThe HE . L
CA parlor stove,
with or without oven attachment, and w ith
duplex grille. is the leading favorite for heat.
purposes. The HAPPY Tumour BANGS, with
the "durable and cleanly duplex grate, is the
best of kitchen stoves. With its neat and
tasteful nickel trimmings and elevated shelf,
it is ornamental as well as useful. A. D.
DYE & Co., sold several stoves at the Fah'.
They alsci had a new style of parlor stoves for

pion salesman of the Northern Tier."

edas to attract especial attention. The grain

likeness of the pre-historic ox, whose bones
are occasionally found below the drift of the
post-de*ian period There were also some
pretty painted chamber suils, parlor b, furni
ture upholstered in rair l ailk, coven why mat
tresses etc.

The Bleeping apartments are all provided with
