It is good to meet them on the plane of their own usefulness, when the har vest has filled the garners,-when the ; autumn-colored plumage of wood and field invites them to a winter of rest and thankfulners.. Let us hail such meetings as the true Congress of a na tion, in . which health and wealth, the -products-of-the-plouglrand-the-reaper,- are discussed' with the inspiration of Nature's rewards and beneficence. Who has- not heard - of Cumberland Valley, with its acres of wheat land, enriched to a garden fertility, - enclosed: with rail and hedgei t ancrembosoming the sunny home of their proprietor ? Wholias ever wished to see a congre gation of this brotherhood of industry, has been gratified with, the show of products of this fertile valley; and has his pride of country grown stronger by this display of the riches of toil. • But while• we ask attention to,the crops and the stock of the skillful far mers, we must not be invidious. ND less does the great Department of Ma chinery attest the skill and ingenuity of Gig - do-laborer of hint who haridies the plough and garners the crops. It is in exhibitions like this, that Agri-. culture recognizes Invention. Side by side, the reaper and grain-bag, the plouglr and . the horse,' the churn and the cow, the blanket and the sheep - stand for competitive prizes. The mod ernized plough, the rapid thresher, the three minute churn, are recognized util ities and have a place in the household of agriculture. While the mind to judge when to sow and when - •tb -Map is necessary, we must 'have •the man to furnigh the implements to lessen la bor, and aid in productive power. But, again, have We the contributions of our fair women a the county. With their offerings of utility and • beauty to adorn the apartment, to• gratify the taste, and to beautify with, the bright, colw•s of a counterpane, the exquisite work of the needle, the brown leaf of bread and cake, the clear, translucent jellies, and the bright, sparkling wines, with a thousand more utilities, hand some or useful—enough to know and realize the work of woman's skill—the sterner sex are compelled to give terms of praise and admiration. The Managers, with their indefatiga ble attention to exhibitors, and their liberal accommodations throughout, made the " . Fair'? of this season a sue-' cess, notwithstanding the unpropitious weather at the start. The largo num ber of articles_ may have been equaled in other.scasons ; 'but it Was admitted by everyb6dy that the stock, the me-. chanical, yegetable, and miscellaneous divisions represented 'a marked im -,prevelnent on the past.

I t was frequently remarked, during the fair, by persons who have. been for many years, that in this department the exhibition was finer than any previous one. Johnson Moore, Esq., - exhibited two Devon Cows and a Calf, which siMuld have elicited the warmest praise of every cattle raiser upon the ground. ...We stood for a long time admiring these cattle with their rich silken hair, their graceful - 11ml*_ the aristocratic head with its intelligent look, its mild eye, symmetrical horns and declared to ourselves "What beauty !" No 'bet ter argument. can be advanced for rearing thorough bred in any kind "of stock than the appearance and actual value of ,the animals Such cattle would 'adorn not only the rich pastor age'of hills and dales, but would add infinite enjoyment to the taste of the proprietor as well as wealth to his home - Mr. Moore deserves more than a passing notice for his careful profm- - gation •of fine stOek. Other Devon stock was offered, among which was. Mr. Mejxell's thorough bred bull.. Messrs. Craig head too, presented their claims upon public admiration with the exhibition of several flue Devons In this department, purity of breed alone should command entrance. A Devon sire and a grade cow are par ents which will ncii permit their off spring to claim the blood of one to the denial of the other; As in horses, purity of blood should be proved by' record or unmistakable points before classification. Let this class then be the peerage of stock congregations, and let it, be' stimulated by clever premiums of the society. This would secure more care and -attention in thorough breeding. For a few years past an undoubted" improvement exhibited itself in the character of cattle kind and which has been developed in the present show. This has been effected.- by the intro duction •of foreign cattle which are well known for beef or milking qualities. As with all improvements, it has been gradual. - Here and there, a - Devon; rt:Durlia.m,--er---an--Alderney ,has made his lineage manifest; but with this introduction "among our na tive bieed, we have lost the- purity of both, which ia r ahrays desirable'to re tain. - At the . present" . time,•the Agri cultural ~society of this ,county has it in its •polver to elavate theabroed . of cattle, by establishing a high standard, in which . thorough" reeding should: be made the ekeelsior mark. • .• • , There Were, twenty, Devon entries by lliossM-.
