THE STATE FAIR.
The State Fair, which closed Iasi night
after a term of four days of unintcmiptec
pleasant weather, has been one of the
most successful ever held in the State.
The only thing to regret is the sad catas
trophe which occurred on Thursday after
noon, which although not involving loss
of life and only Serious and permanent
injury to perhaps but one person is still
an accident to be lamented. All the ar
rangements seem to have been excellent,
and the order and system maintained
were worthy, of praise. Even botlt that
wished to see had opportunity and cour
teous treatment. It is gratifying to know
that all parts of our State and all indus
tries were represented at the Fair, both
by contributions to the exhibition and per
sonal attendance. We saw familiar faces
from Aroostook and York and all the in
tervenieg counties, and in such numbers
that there was no reason to complain of
lack of attendance. The officers of the
Society are deserving of much credit for
the success which has attended the Fair.
We trust the exhibitors will not be with
out a reward for their labor and enter
prise . The amount of good which will go
out from such an exhibition is incalcula
ble. Thousands of farmers and mechan
ics have returned to their homes with new
and valuable ideas, and will go about
their labor or business more intelligently
and with life and energy not felt before.
With a better soil than any other New
England State, Maine needs only to en
courage home industries, occupy the
water privileges, invite capital to invest
here, in order to have our farms improved
and made profitable, and our agriculture
lead New England. Farming and manu
facturing go hand in hand iu our State.
The spinner, weaver and machinist must
be fed and the fanner is the person to do
it.
nil AT DOES THIS ME A S'?
The following communication which
we find in the New York Evening
Post, we publish without comment, leav
ing Governor Chamberlain’s friends to
explain it if they wish.
Portland. Me., September 14, 1870.
To the Editors of the Evening Post:
The election is over, and the Republicans
have carried the State by a majority quite as
large all tilings cousldered, as could have been
rationally expected. The real interest of the
campaign was not in the gubernatorial con
test. but in the struggle for the United States
Senatorship.
The lines are well drawn between the
present incumbent, Renator Morrill, and the
present Governor, General Chamberlain. A
large number of representatives to the legis
lature have been chosen on this special issue,
and the supporters of Governor Chamberlain
have the undoubted sympathy, as they will
have, if necessary, the "undivided support of
the democratic members—of whom a much
larger number than usual are returned.
The movement for Chamberlain is quite in
dependent of party, and wilt not be subjected
to the rules of political rings and partisan
caucuses. If a majority of the legislature,
including the democrats, prefer Chamberlain,
they will elect liiin.
The issues between senator Morrill ann
Governor Chamberlain are sharp anil distinct,
especially on matters of revenue anil tariff.
Senator Morrill belongs to the old school who
believe in protection, and who pertinaciously
oppose what the enlightened progress of the
day demands for us in New England— a reci
procity treaty with the British Provinces.
Governor Chamberlain on the other hand is
wedded to the progressive ideas of revenue
reform ; is devoted to freedom of trade, and
believes with all his heart in removing the har
riers between us and the provinces by re-es
tablishing a reciprocity treaty.
The issue on this point is marked and sig
nificant between Senator Morrill and Govern
or Chamberlain, and I predict that reciprocity
and freedom of trade will have a glorious vic
tory by the election of the latter to the Senate
of the United States.
We feel exceedingly grateful to the Evening
Post for its warm espousal of Governor
Chamberlain’s cause, and we will promise on
our part to leave no stone unturned to secure
his election.
Refcblican Revenge Reformer.
The Boston Advertiser mentions edito
rially the Universalist centennury conven
tion at Gloucester as follows:
The sight at Gloucester this week, where
thousands of those who profess the faith
which Murray came to teach are gathered, is
one in which all Christians may well be in
terested- Differ as men may as to the truth
or heresy of the particular doctrines which
are the basis of the gathering, it is a present
example of the growth which a denomination
may make in a comparatively short time hy
dint of diligent work. At the same time the
condition of the denomination to-day is as
good an answer as it could desire to one of
the severest criticisms that have ever keen
Jiiada upon it. If Universaliam be true, it
has been said, there is no need of any re
ligion at all, and as the doctrine spreads, the
outward practice of religions duties at least
will decrease. But, on the other hand, the
facts remain that as the denomination gains
power and numbers it is among the most
active in building churches, establishing
schools, founding papers to inculcate its
specific doctrines, asd, is tact, in ail the
works ot a progressive Christian church.
The Gloucester meeting marks an era in its
history. The one hundredth anniversary of
the foundation of the denomination in this
country has been signalised by the raising of
• very large sum of money by the voluntary
contributions of its members, its position as
ope of the important systems of belief is re
cognized, its (lay of small tilings is.paat. If
iu opportunities are wisely used it has a fu
ture before it of growth and prosperity, many
fold more brilliant than lias been its increase
dummy it* first i tsutury just closed.
A Washington correspondent says that
the 4d*ug Secretary of the Treasury has
addresses a circular letter to Collectors of
Customs throughout the country, request
ing theta fo invite such persons resident in
their district* as possess the requisite qual
ifications in nautical attainments and prac
tical scmansliip, and who are not above
the age ol thirty years, to make personal
application by letter for the position of
'Third lieutenant of the revenue marine
service. The object Is, in filling the twenty
vacancies existing in this rank, to distn

ricultural Society.
FOURTH PAY—Friday.
Or the Grounds.
■ There was a most thorough test of the
I strength of draught horses on the grounds
about half-past ten o'clock. The following
pairs made a trial of strength on a drag load
( ed with stone weighing 4808 pounds : Crowell
Bickford ot AA'est AA’atervillc, horses weigh
ing 2350 pounds. W. AV. Pease of North
Anson, two pairs, weighing respectively 2400
and 2000 pounds. A. & W. Sprague of Au
gusta. pair weighing 2200. Horace AA'ood
man of Saco, Normandy horse, weighing 1000
pounds.
The horses mnde a most superior and satis
factory exhibition of strength, hauling the
drag with ease a distance of eight rods and
baek, with brief breathing spells. The large
white Normandy horse started the heavy load
several rods alone, to the great surprise of
those who thought it a foolhardy attempt to
put the horse to the drag. Bickford and
Pease tried their double teams on the drag
with the addition to the load of twelve men,
averaging in weight about 175 pounds, and the
teams accomplished the task of hauling the
load with all the additions that had been made.
It was a fine exhibition of strength.
At eleven o’clock, the Secretary of the So
ciety, S. L. Boardman, Esq., read a list of
the premiums that had been awarded by the
various committees. Those we give bsloif
are in addition to the list published yesterday :

Afternoon.
The last afternoon of the Fair opened with
an attendance fully equal to that of Thurs
day, although the skies were lowering, prom
! ising a sprinkling of the dusty track without
1 the aid of artificial appliances.
The first race was for mares and geldings,
j 3 years old and under 4, mile heats, 2 in 3,
for Society's premium, $30 to the first, $20 to
second.
E. F. Wyman of Vassalboro', entered Gip
sey Queen, and E. T. Monroe of Abbot,
! Maggie Storm. The latter horse won the
; race in two straight heats—time. 3.17$, 3.104.
About this time the fine military company
in which the citizens of Augusta take an hon
est pride, the Capital Guards, marched around
the track, headed by the Gardiner Band, ,T.
W. McDonald, leader. They passed in brief
review before the judges’ stand, in presence
of the Governor elect. Hon Sidney Berham,
and other distinguished officials and gentle
men, after which they wt^c relieved from
! duty. During the afternoon the excellent
Band of twenty pieces gratified the audience
by some specimens of their best music.
A drizzling rain came on, but the people
were waiting in patience for the appearance
of the horses advertised to compete in the
sweepstakes race. In this list was the Gil
breth Knox, but there came an announcement
that this celebrated stallion would not trot,
but that the race would be confined to Bight
Bower and the Carthage Boy. This was
damper than the rain to the spectators, and
Gilbreth of the Knox and Better of the Car
thage Boy addressed the crowd in explana
tion, from which it appeared that while Mr.
Gilbreth was anxious te trot his horse, an
agreement had previously been entered into
by the owners of the other horses and the
owner of the Knox that the last named horse
should be withdrawn. The race that had
drawn the immense crowd of people together
was indefinitely postponed, and the people
had to content themselves with something a
good deal cheaper than they expected to wit
ness.
In lien of the sweepstakes there was a race
for a purse of $300, open to all horses owned
in Maine, mile heats, best 3 in 5; $200 to
first. fiiOO to aecond.
The following horses were entered and as
signed positions in the order named : Iiight
Bower, A. B. I’. Wheelden; Carthage Boy,
Robert Potter; Bully Brooks. Geo. M. De
laney; Col. I.akeman, Geo. M. Robinson.
The horses had a good send off for the first
heat. Right Bower immediately took the pole
away from Bully Brooks, strongly pressed by
Col. Lakeman. Brooks and Bower were neck
and neck at the end of the half mile. Lake
man took the first position just after the half
mile and -held it to the end of the mile, com
ing in one length ahead of Bower, winning the
heat in 2.38).
There was a bad start on the second heat,
with Lakeman in the rear, but he soon took
his rightful place. The Right Bower regained
it, but the Bully Brooks, who had been far in
the rear, claimed attention by crawling up on
the last three quarters, and came to the score
just half a head in rear of Bower. The latter
horse was set back for running, and the heat
given to Bully Brooks. Time 2.41}.
The Bully Brooks held the first position
throughout the third heat, being warmed to
his work by the Carthage Boy, who was not a
length in the rear, to the score. Heat won by
Brooks in 2.43}.
On the fourth heat Carthage Boy shot ahead
on the start, but was passed by Brooks on the
half mile. The heat and the race was won by
Bully Brooks in 2.47. Second purse given
to Lakeman.
This closed the Fair on the grounds. Near
ly all the stock had been removed in the after
noon, and as the crowd went out, there was
little left where there had been so much ex
citement for four days, but empty stalls and
deserted tents. The total receipts of the
Fair will amount to about $10,000.
