W. II. Bodkin. W. H. Bodkin, the champior. Tin and Coppersmith, who has recently opened a shop on 5th street, had on exhibition at the Fair, some of the most serviceable Tinware we have ever seen. The tin is of double the weight :ut in the ware usually sold, and the vrork is compact and good. He makes this ware for his retail trade, ind buyers may feel assured that it wout need new soldering in about th ree or lour weeks after it is put in the kitchen. Mr. Bodkin took the first premium on a copper boiler, which was exhibited by him a specimen of his own work the copper was as clear find smooth as if it had been moulded, and dressed on an emery wheel no hammer marks all over it, as was the case with a boiler we noticed, just opposite to his display. He also had some cheap, yet .serviceable ioves, ou exhibition, which he will be pleased to 6how, at his shop, to those who may wish to examine. P.S. The Tinware above alluded to, was awarded the 1st premium. Allen & Co. One of the most perfect and complete Stoves ever introduced, is the Continental, one of which was on exhibition at the County Fair, and as was right and proper under the circumstances, the Continental took the first premium. Among its many points of superiority, are the sliding oven doors, which do not spread out and "stand in the way," as is the case with other Cooking Stoves ; the top plate is eas, in two pieces, and hence, will not expand and break as is often the case with the stoves in common use ; the hearth has a groove which holds it to its place, and prevents it from being drawn out ; it has a tin hot air closet, in which bread may be placed to rise, or the victuals may be kept w. rm if placed within it, and not be dried up, as is the casewhen placed in the oven or on the top of the stove. But one of the nicest aud most practical contrivances is a cast iron reservoir, placed near the pipe, and entirely out of ihe way ; it is enameled with porcelain, and water may be heated and kept perfectly pure and sweet, for use in coffee or tea. It has close fitting lids, and beneath is placed a faucet through which the water s drawn. Insects cannot get into th is reservoir, as they often do in a teakettle, and the vessel cannot rust as a tea-kettle almost always dots. Messrs. Allen & Co. will take great

pleasure in exhibiting this stove and explaining its good points to a ay who may call at their store. Cbase & Co. A pretty display of Shoes, at the County Fair, attracted no lit tie

attention, last week, and it was of

course easily ascertained that Chase & Co. were the exhibitors. We noticed some fine Cloth Gaiters and Misses' Slippers, among the collection, that were certainly neater than the famous slippers of Cindrella, and far more durable than if made of glass. The ladies need not go further than the store of Chasj & Co. to find all the sizes of shoes, as well as qualities and low prices. This is their business, and they are determined to suir. everybody. Many farmers have found it difficult to secure a heavy farm boot that was also durable they were us jal-

ly made of split leather, and the aides sewed by machinery the consequence was, the leather would rough up and admit the moisture, and the sides of the boot leg would rip. Now Chase & Co. isell a iarra boot that has no split leather in it, aides of the best and most select stock, and the sides hand-served. It may cost a little more to b ty a pair of those boots, than will pay for a split leather pair, but then they will out-last two pairs of the lower priced booty. While on this subject, we wish again to spesk of the facilities Chase & Co. have for selling job lots to near-by country merchants. In the first place they keep a better class of goods than you cap buy of a Cincinnati or louisville house; in the second place, they sell ty the case .t the same prices you- city wholesaler charges yon, and thsn you save freight. Think of this, come to Chase & Co's., examina their floods, and save money, whi.il. you know 1 the fcime thing as making monw.

Thf Monroe County Fair "Was h rgely attended, last week, but ivj an exhibition of tarm products proper, it was the most complete fi ilure we have ever s.-cn. Every e 1'ort was made by the officers of the Society to give satisfaction to exhibitors ; liberal premiui is were offered, and those competed for were paid in full. The burden of blame r.ists with the farming community. They have had a bounteful harvest, n nd could have made a creditable and pi ofi table display., No entry was mido for the 25.00 premium cn wh 'at, and but oue entry for the $'25.00 premium on the best five acres cf corn. For the best five acres of oats, $15.00 was otlored ; and the best acre of potatoes 10.00, but no one entered for either. There were r. number of classes entirely unrepresented, and now, because a few of our neighbors in Lawrence and Morgan brought their horses to exhibit, a number of persons arc setling up a howl about its being "only horse fair." Whose :'au!t is it that it was only a horse fair? Must the .Society run the Fair and furnish the articles for exhibition ? The premiums offered on field crops were nve dollars higher than those offcr-

A minister was preparing his next Sunday's discourse, and occasionally stopped to erase or supply a word, when his five-year old boy asked : "Father, does God tell you what to preach?" "Certainly, my child." "Then' said the boy, '''what makes rou scratch it out ?" We never find

it necessary to "scratch out" any thing we write about John P. Smith.

Smith docs everything he agrees to

do, and more. His neat, cosy store,

is on the West side of the square,

fact, it was a question with many

whether the Fair was being held at

his store room, or in the enclosure west cf town. As it is a "fair ques

are very nice, indeed.
