igo agricultural fair.

The second annual Agricultural Fair for Vigo county came off on Saturday last in the Court House and Public Square. There was a large attendance of farmers and others, and a display of stock, agricultural products, farming implements, Sic., die., that was truly gratifying evincing a strongly increasing interest throughout the county In the subject of Agriculture. Those wise folks who could praise the Fair of another county, and take so little pride in our own county Fair as to pronounce and send it abroad a "mockery" and a failure," in ad

STATE FAIR—HORACE GREELEY. The Editor of the <People's Friend> at Covington, thinks it a great outrage that Horace Greeley should have been selected by the State Board to deliver the Address at the Indiana State Fair. The Editor says such a selection is an indignity to our own citizens, and especially to that most estimable, talented and worthy individual, James Howe, who, continues the Editor, "<has en deared himself to the people of the western por~ tion of this State by his devotion to the culture of onions, the improvement of liquors—and the creation of a home market for whisky of domestic manufacture, more than any man on the Wabash.>"

Shade of onions, liquor, and home market for whisky, forever defend us. If Horace Greeley ain't knocked into a cocked hat, with the Maine Law, and all moral creation to boot, then we know nothing of the old adage,that "there is but a step between the sublime and ridiculous." ~~~~~~~

The Vigo Fair this season was highly creditable, and a decided improvement upon last year. Next year we hope will be an Improvement upon this. Let every farmer turn his attention to this matter and prepare something for next year's Exhibition.

Rights' convention' assembled yesterday

very quietly, with scarcely any traces

of the storms of the day previous, but harmony was soon threatened by the

introduction of a letter from Rev J. W. Ilagginson, asking the convention to

take up a collection for the purpose of raising funds to print cheap tracts on Woman's Rights.

Mrs. Baker, and the Hon. Abby Kelley objected. Denouncing the reverend gentleman as a heretic.

Lucy Stone replied in indignant

terms, after which a collection was ta ken up.

While the saucer was going round,

some young man in the gallery said, «if

Miss Lucy would come herself, he would

shell out.' She immediately went to him and he launched out $40.

Mr. Garrison iniroducod a resolution abusing the World's Temperance Con

vention, and after some remark, by Messrs. Giddings and Burleigh, it was carried. -,

Mrs. Baker made an address blas

phemous in tone—railing at the church

and the Bible, and abusing the Clergy. There was much confusion and excitement while she was speaking.

Antoinette Brown, in indign ant terms, signified her readiness to reply to Mrs. Buker, but tho convention adjourned^'''

Oh Jetdonsy! thou Aggregate of Woes. A queer case came off yesterday before Squire Parsons. It was a case of jealousy between two of our 'colored brethren,* one having the other arrested for threatening to cave his head in because he had won the affections of a young and lovely creature to whom the other had made professions of the tender passion. The jilted man had made the lady numerous presents while paying her his addresses before marriage.— These presents conststed'chiefly of jewelry, such as rings, breastpins, and other trinkets. When he found she had married another, he was determined to have them all back again and sent a note for the recovery of the property- To this there was no answer. Becoming very indignant at this outrageous treatment, he resolved to go himself to the house where she resided in honeyed happiness with her sable spouse and demand the restoration of the baubles. He did so— Her husband was not at home—she was alone—she whom he so fondly loved— aye, adored—the object of his idolatry. But she received him as coldly as though upon his face she ne'er had gazed before. She was as cold as the

peakership. The prospects

are favorable for the election of Thomas H. Bayley, of Virginia. He is described as a gentleman of some forty-three or four years of age, whose heavy figuro, rather antique style of dress and sedate countenance, give his appearance a some what older cast, which his friends designate as the very 'presence,'for the presiding officer of the House of Representatives of the U. Statee He has been in Congress ever since John Tyler sent Mr. Henry A. Wise abroad so thnt al though comparatively young, he is one of the fathers of the House.

He told her he wanted 'them rings, them breastpins, and them other fixins, what he had given her ofore she was married to Clem.' She soized the broo*mstick and told hUn to'clar the kitchen.' He insisted that while she retained posses sion of the specified articles, he had a mortgage on the premises to the amount of their value, and consequently he could legally remain so long as she kept them, and he defied her to hit him 'wid dat broom if she dared to.'
