THE FAIR;
The 34a. annual exhibition of the Fair-
field County Agricultural Society will,we
fear, prove its most memorable one. The
entries were encouragingly filling in allflay
Monday and up to Tuesday noon of last
week, despite the suffocating dust, when the
rain set in and put a damper upon all fur-
ther proceedings. Rain, rain, for an entire
, week, was enough to kill any fair and
drench all the courage out of its managers_
Yet, within the capacious structures of the
society were to be seen one of the finest
shows of fruits and vegetables ever exhibit.
edin this county before. The same may be
said of the floral ofieriugs. Mead, of Green-
wich; Crosby, of Danbury, and Jennings.
of Southport, alone, and without the small
exhibits'of others, made a show worth
_ doublet price of admission. The show
. of grain was never finer. We saw a bag of
wheat, grown by S. B. Wakeman; of West-
port, called the “white Eureka," which
yielded him fifty bushels to the acre, and
was as plump as the best grown in Califor~
nia. A. Sherwood, of Weslport, showed a
basket of “ Beauty Seedling Potatoes," as
fine tubers as we ever beheld; also, a basket
of extra fine white Globe onions. John
Ryan,ot course, was in on a sweepstake
both on vegetables and hot house grapes,
and never were his articles finer. He has
over a hundred varieties of vegetables, and
covers an entire table. The bread,dairy
and honey evinced unusual care. . Mrs.
Godfrey, of Westport, bore 011‘ the first
prizes on butter and cakes. Mrs. John
Aiken, of Norwalk, on fruit-cake, preserves,
and canned fruits. . . ~ °
Lina Weed has a case of silverware which
would have been an object of interest in
Ball 85 Black’s store. E. K. Lockwood
makes a most elaborate, showy and inter-
esting exhibit,—his table showing about
every article of ornament and use in the do-
mestic economy. Few metropolitan estab-
lishments could make as complete a show.
Our new Norwalk baker, Mr. DeKlyn, has
a case of fancy cakes and goodies, which
show marvelous proficiency in his art, and
prove him a master of his trade. Frank
Mead & Co. exhibits. case of confectionery,
every specimen of which is manufactured
by themselves here in Norwalk, and which
are not rivalfi by the best “ Frenc " manu-
facturers. The Silver Stream Paper Mills
give. us the first products of one ,of Nor-
walk’s new industries. . Geo. H. Ferris ex-
hibits a neatly arranged show case of cut-
ery and the finer sortfi of hardware. An
improvement and novelty also in door bells,
bears his label also. Wm. A. Kellogg shows
specimens of his expertness in wood-work-
ing in a boot-blacking case and commode-
H. L. Uhle and S. F. Peck, druggists, have
natty little cases which so attractively ad—
vertise their fancy wares as to leave no sug-
gestion of the pills and jalops kept behind.
J. . Cousins have a case of exquisitely
wrought ladies’ and children’s shoes. It
seems scarcely possible that such beautiful,
execution can be brought forth by machin-
cry.
The usual novelties in musical instru-
ments, fancy implements and machinery
were present. Apotato planting machine
was shown by Allan Belts and Josiah Kel-
logg, and attracted much approving atten.
tion. An exceedingly interesting novelty
was the “ Pioneer Snlky Attachment for
Plows,” shown by'Wm. R. Lockwood. It
hitches up to any sort of a plow beam, and
does away with the old-lime man or boy at
the plow handles. This was the chiefest
novelty among farming implements. G. B.
Gruman, of ‘Branchville, made an elaborate'
show of the various devices used in harvest-
ing ice,including his own patent ice plow,
which is claimed to be the best article
in use; The Danbury Lawn Mower—“ The
' Velocity”—-which we know from careful
test to be the very best mower in the market,
attracted deserved attention. A marble
polishing machine, invented by E. B. Price,
was another novelty which seemed to di'
vidc honors with a washing machine. and
ciderpress. .
Perhaps the most wcrthy and really su-
pdrior part of the inside show was in the
Ladies’ Industrial department. Here we
found a very large number of entries of the
nicer embroideries and needle-wroughtde-
vices of feminine taste and art. This de-
partment alone, so amply and creditably
was it filled, would have made an exhibi-
tion of itself, and saved our inside show 0f
default, had there been none of the thou-
sand and one other attractions. A silk
quilt by Miss Jennie Keating,'of South Nor-
walk, contains 5,733 pieces.
Whitney, of course, had it all his own
way in superior photographs, while pianos
and organs nicely supplemented the delight-
ful efforts of the Westport Bond in making
'cverybody happy'despite the rain. This
band evinced marked skill in the use of
their instruments, and the general verdict is
that they fairly take rank among the best in
the State. .
Alfred Hopkins, Bridgeport, exhibits a
very fine collection of bronzes,mantles, etc.,
which is deserving of special mention. Do
not fail to examine those elegant ornaments.
Two large, handsomely framed specimens
of “spatter wor ” attract attention. They
were executed by Mrs. Uhle and Miss Mary
C. Quintard, of Norwalk, and show excgl-
lent taste in arrangement and skill in exe-
cution. ‘ '
Bridgeport, in her school furniture, and
notably ia'her two exhibits of slate mantles,
made a. very attractive show. The elabora-
tion and nicity of details in styles of manu-
' facture, &e., made the mantle corner
the ' most attractive quarter in the
exhibition hall. The trees, exhibited in
tubs, by these popular fruit culturists,
Stephen Hoyt & Sons, attracted as much at-
tention as their apples, from the novelty of
the device. Knapp & Taylor had a light
trotting buggy, quite creditable to Norwalk
skill. Dr. Barbour had a dainty little case
of most exquisitely wrought false teeth,
which attracted favorable comment. A. C.
Arnold & Co. showed their improved door
hinges and rollers. . The only mowing ma-
chine was from New London, but taken
away before the judges took action on farm-
ing utensils. .
The poultry show was not large, but we
never saw finer exhibits of the Asiatic
breeds. A pair of baby owls opened the
eyes of the children quitevas wide as their
own. Westport and South Norwalk tilted
each other on mammoth pumpkins.
Outside, little was done according to
programme. The exhibits of Cattle, Sheep,
Swine and Brood Mares and Colts were
small. but we never saw finer single speci-
mens. Mr. McCrcady exhibited some of his
finely bred Alderneys. Rev. Mr. Wells, of
Southport, showed a Jersey heifer as»
prettyasa Rosa Bonheur picture.‘ It is
worth ‘9; day’s ride to see such animals. A
fine yearling, 'Jersey, out of Fitch’s im-
ported Landseer,—the prize bull of America,
—was also exhibited, as were several fine
specimens of the short hort Durham stock.
Capt. Joseph P. Hanford, exhibited a
Durha grade milch cow which ‘would
make a milk vender stare. Her regular
flow is 32 quarts per day in flush milking.
The trials of speed had to be mostly
The trials of speed had to .bemostly post-
poned of course, or omitted altogether.
The storm must have proved most disas-I
tsious to the finances of the Society. This
is seriously to be regretted, as in the effort
.io furnish a creditable exhibition [in the
past, as well as, the necessary outlays forthe .
A
present one, the ofilcers,with alljtheir care
and prudence, have run behind; The wish
is quite wide-spread that those'cxhibitors
winning premiums this year, should accept
the honor of their triumphs, and show their
generosity by leaving the little sums of
money awarded them to help eke out the
Society's embarrassed Treasury.
, Total receipts to Saturday night for en-
tries and tickets, were $320. These receipts
should have been fully $4,000 to come up
to the average of former years.
Under all the disadvantages o be week

sewing machines put in an appearance Mon-
day—QoSinger-and one Domestic, Two
fine specimens of “Spotter Work” were ex-
hibited and attracted much attention from
its novelty. A worsted picture “Hawk
Hunting” was another rarity.- In the run-
ning race of Monday, the Austen horse
“Black Emir,” which was a white horse took
first prize for getting around the track- last.

evening, at Lockwood’s Hall. Seats can

are assured that this is an excellent troupe,
deserving of the patronage of our] people.
In speaking of their concerts the Tribune
says :—
“It was curious to mark the deep sym-
pathy of the crowded and,cnltivated audi-
ence with the rude verses and tunes brought
by these young freed p e out of the land
of bondage. The songs f this interesting
company of students are not the Weak dit-
tics of the burnt-cork minstrels, nor are they
the ordinary .music of the concert room
which wepcan hear at any time. They are
the genuine slave sOngs, produced, nobody
knows how among the plantation cabins
and camp meetings.”
Comet—Among the amusements “book-
cd” at the Opera House are the following:

portunity of enjoying his humorous criter-
