Agricnltural Pair!
Ihe Stat* Fair ot Virginia begins under
suspiefoiH skie«. If we are not mistaken, it
will prove an era in the history of both the
country and the town. Agriculture, always
the favorite pur<nit of our people, and in
dastry, in all its departments, will receive a
new and powerful impetus from the exhibition
which begins to day. Apart from its effects
upon these great public inter estate Pair will
exert a happy influence in bringing together
citizf ns of varions parts of the State, and in
promoting a better acquaintance between
fl'e people of the country and city. Wc wel
come our country friends with the most heart
felt satisfaction to the metropolis, and trust
that their visit may be one both of pleasure
and profit.
The fyirpatch. will daily publish the most
full and accurate accounts of the proceed
ings of the Fair, and every matter of interest
connected therewith.
Liomziug.
It ifi expected that Kozsta will soon come
to America, and it ran scarcely be ebpposed
that fhe opportunity will be missed by the
people of the Northern cities of indulging
their peculiar passion for lionizing celebri
ties. The fact of celebrity is the claim which
is neve made in vain upon the cockneys of
the large American towns. Merit as great as
the world has ever seen, need not put on a
mask to escape attention in our huge hives
of humanity. Let it only show im own hon
est ard manly face, and no one will know it
or care for it. Genius of the most exalted
order, if its powers have not yet been recog
nized by the great world; Virtue, the most
pure, lofty and disinterested; Patriotism, as
brave, unselfish, and devoted as that of
George Washington—might appear npon our
shores without eliciting a single testimonial
of public or private admiration. Hut let No
toriety appear, and the citiesopen their gates
and pour forth their crowds to welcome and
worship it. Who does not recollect the abject
and nauseating homage which was paid to
Dickens, Lord Morpeth, and a host of other
titled and untitled celebrities, and last of all,
to Kossuth? Of tiiis man, they made almost
a god; and in a month afterwards, there were
'none so } - oor as do him reverence." They
neither i.aew nor cared whether Kossuth
was or was not a man of real merit. It was
enough for them that they had an opportunity
of exhibiting a I've lion in the streets of N.
York, and it was supreme felicity to dangle at
his tail. Kossuth, although a great orator
and a great man, was himself deceived by
this splendid pageantry and idolatrous Hun
worship.
YVh' n he looked upon the great, swelling
tide of humanity which rolled and heaved
«nd roared from one end of Broadway to the
other; whin be saw the windows ot"every
hotise filled with multitudes of Indies, show
ering bright glances and beautiful smiles up
on the Hungarian hi ro ; when the huzzae of
the vast m iltitade rang like the s-tormy voice
of many waters in his ears, he thought this
was a genuine and overwhelming demonstra
tion in favor ofthe independence of his native
land. Never was there a more perfect d«lu
gion. Not one individual in fifty thousand of
that crowd had ever read half a page of the
history of Hungary, or would have comribu
ted the value of a continental dime to deliv
er him or any of hie people from the bottom
less pit. Not one in a hundred thotwand en
tertained ae much disinterested regard for
Kosscth himself as would have made the
smallest imaginable sac ifice to save him from
political and personal perdition. Kossuth
might go now through the same streets where
he onee passed nnder triumphal arches, and
received more than t' honors of a Roman
conqueror, and lio would not command as
much attention as a prominent member cf the
Empire Club. Not one man in Broadway
would turn to look back at him, and not one
woman would p<* p from the windows at
him. And why ? Not because there is less
sympathy felt by those people for Hungary
or Kossuth, but because he has answered
their pnrposes. lie is tis much of a lion as
ever, but he is a lion whom they have seen,
whom they have followed, whom they have
heard roar a hundred times, and whom they
are tired of. The citizen of New York is mad
to gee the hippopotami, or the sea serpent,
or anv of Barnum's collection of genuine and
manufactured prodigies, when it appears for
the first time, but th-y do not wait even for
nine dajs to ixpire, before they givo Mr.
Barouni the opportuuity to show his curiosi
ties to an audience composed exclusively of
his country friend-'. 8o it is with foreign ct>
kbiities. While the novelty lasts, the lion
who has just landed is king of the beasts in
New Yelk ; but, let him not await the arriv.d
of tho next steamer. It may bring over an
other li.'ii, with a .-htiggit r inane, a iie-rcer eye
; a louder raar and a longer tail.
The foreign celebrities who receive in our
! lar„'o cities to many demonstrations of eiot«-
ive servi.ity and obs< q liousiie-s, sometimes
! imagine that real reverence for their character
a'id social position lies at the foundation ot
these exhibitions. '1 he celebrities are imu h
mistaken, 'ihe cockneys love to li .u\z«,
„ut o'l account of tho lien, but for their
own Batisfat li 'fltey are fond of bhowaod
p trad", anil, in ertkr to acoompli-h this ob
ject, it is a godsend if they call pr.-ss into their
V, r \ i, i; a lion. They ai>k no high, r honor
,h in to act as showman to the mwnareh ol
the forest. They «Hmb up by bin tail win n
he is in an atrii.»ble inuod, in » r.itr to ex.»lt
their p eritioii in sot i ty. They feed him, even
when he sni ps s ivagi ly at tho hand whi.b
thrusts the meat b tw< en the bars of bis cage,
and they list up their ehildrm in th.lr arm.-,
and teatb them to look at ami to aduiiio a
real lion.

two new victims who ar« at present on their
way to these frhorm. Martin Kezeta the
nangarian, and John Mitchell the Irishman,
are the unhappy men. Both are worthy par
son?? and true p itriot/, who dwerve a better
fate than to be m ide ashow for the entertain
ment of an ignorant and conceited rabble. If
th ;re be a spark of genuine sympathy with
the canse of Hungary and Irel-md, or with
their representative*, let it be thown in giv
ing them that "material aid" which will ena
ble them, by honest industry, to obtain c< m
fort and happiness in the land of the r adt p
tion. Better fill their stomachs with meat and
bread, than their brains with the empty fumee
of glory. Better line their larders with f«t
chickens than ornament their hats with chic
ken feather*. For the honor of the country,
wc invoke the cockneys ef New York to re
strain their appetite for lionizing others, at
least so far as not to make .isees of them
selves.
Nav.il JRefoxm.
We are pleased to tee that the press so
generally is devoting its attention to naval
reform, end urging the subject upon the at
tention of the next Congress. One rmpor
tant step towards the increased efficiency ct
the Navy has alrcsdy been taken in the es
tablishment of such a school for midshipmen
as that now in operation in Annapolis. The
best facilities arts attorded there for acquiring
both the theory and practice esaenti.J to the
education of an officer of the Navy. Not
only will our officers be more thorough
ly educated hereafter, but they will be
better practical seamen. Uitil the estab
lishment of this school, midshipmen were not
required to perform any of the manual du
ties of sailors. They were a kind of append
age to the quarter-deck, a sort of "walking
speaking trumpe ," aa Jack called them, and
learned the details of seamanship as spec
tators and not as participants. Now they
arc compelled for a certain portion of the
time during which they are attached to the
school at Aiiitapolii to p« rform a cruise as
sailors in a ship belonging to the station, and
they havo all the duties of sailors to perfo'm.
Hauling the rop«s. and reefing topsails are
matters with which young geutlemen now
become acquainted by actual experience,
and we may" anticipate from it much more
thorough seamanship among our officers than
the naval ei-r\ice of the L'uited states, ex
cellent as it is, has ever guen.
Hut there are other reforms equally neces
sary. One of these is to have a retired list
upon whiih all ofiiiters, who have become
incompetent by extreme age or other causes,
should be put tipon half pay. Another ta to
promote according to merit, and not accord
ing to thy dite of a commission. Another,
and one of the most important, is to increase
the pay of sailors, so as to secure in the na
tional servce American seamen, who are now
attracted almost entirely to the mirc-antile
murine on account of the higher wages which
they obtain there.
But, if we intend to make the Nr.vv effi
cient, so aa to render it in any degree ade
quate to the protection of our commerce, and
'■uahie us to Nustaiu our honor iu that jajreat j
struggle with our enemies in Europe, whicli
must sooner or later occur, and of which the
ocean will be the chief theatre, we must iu
troduce into our ships the important improve
menus adopted in the iiritieb and French na
vies, especially the conversion of a number
of our largo vessels of war into propellers.—
The application of steam in this way is the
only one whi>'h bids fair c6seuti illy to change
the character of naval warfare, and it conse
quently demands the prompt sad vigorous
action of our (Government. Wo doubt not
thattho ISecretary of the Navy will call the
attention of Congreaa to it at the next ses
sion.
Stages and Railroads.
If any one wishes t<» appreei ite the fall
comfort, advantage and luxury of Railroad?,
there is no better way th <n by ona
trip from Stannton or any other point on the
main Western Koad to the city ot Kichmond.
It is a common saying that we don't realize
cittr until v»e «.re deprived of theui;
and the truth applied with great force to tho
present subject. I>et * progressive mortal, of
the Nineteenth Century, be cooped up for
twenty four or even four hours, in a stage,
"cribbed, cabined, coffined and confined,'
with nine or ten other miserable prisoner.-,
iii! packed together aa closely m a box m<
figs, travelling at the rate of four in-led au
hour, und neatly jolted to death; and then let
him exchange this crimped ard wretched
cotiditu n for the roomy and ha.nd.iome cars
oi'tuo Central li -ilroad, where he can
talk, and stretch himself at Lis ease, as if in
his own inn, and tf hia heart does not over
flow with gratitude to the railway inventor,

the difficulties and the expense of procuring
supplies from more distant countries. 'The
writ« r adds that wheat bas advanced full 5«.
per quarter during the week, and further ad
vance is confidently calculated upon. New
wheat has fetched 80s. tha quarter, and flour
is quoted at 70s. per sack. American flour,
at the (late of the letter, was 3s. per barrel
higher than on that day week. The accounts
from Ireland respecting the potato crop are
not so satisfactory as they were a few weeks
ago.
Spirit cf the Press.
Yesterday'? Whig has an «rrick:on the "Priceof
Wheat,' showioj tbe effect of the recent foreign
news upon the market, and tui'geeta that the farm
ers adopt some measure to protect themselves
from the schemes of speculators.
Tbe Afiii considers the question touching the
threatened war between Turkey and Rassia tbe
most complicated and uaresc.lva
ble" pubject that has come up «W« the prospect of a
North west passage woo fi'"at brca< hod to tbe world,
and giv. s extracts fro«u late forei.Ti intelligence to
.-how how deeply mystified are tfaeacccuntu hitherto
reci ived from the Ea.-t. The Mail also comments
upon the revelations of Kdmund Barke,ofNew
Hampshire, to show that the nomination ot Gene
ral Pierce wa* the result of a long concocted and
deeply laid gi hctne.
The E*q ir.r eays it is no loncera mere varue
j-uspi'ion, but a well-deliued ana woll accredited
ruinor, that the Bii i»h Ooverumetit is concentrat
ing all its power in the effort to accoinpli=b the abo
lition of slavery in tie island of Cuba. After en"
largicg tjp:m this point the Enquirer states that it
bM the most positive and satisfactory assurances
that "the Administration have adopts prompt and
coergctic measures to thwart the intrigue* ot Bri
tish diplomacy anil to protect the country fiom the
consequences of a blow aimed at its vital interests,
il not at its very existence. In his message to
Congress, President Pierce will show the South'
that in a cri.-is ot peril to its institutions, he put
*br:h the arm of government to defend them,, and
will convince even the bigotry of party that he is
the reliable champion of Southern rights."

.NO. AT 10 O'CLOCK, lttte or
CLE.
The State Agriocltcral Fair begins
this morning. under suspicions cireumstsEcrs, if
the weather holds good, wo have oo doubt it wiil
prove the most attractive ezhibitiao ever held in Vir
ginia. Yesterday we spent several hours upon the
jrouiid. examining specimens of labor-saving ma
chinery of all kindd, poultry of ail kinds, imported
and thorough-brid horses, cattle, aheep, and hogs,
owned by the farm en of the State—ud such sptei
tnens, too, a-> weald do credit to any State in the
Union. As far as thorough-bred horses are concert
ed. we"have no hesitation in saying that they will far
surpass any that has been on exhibition North of the
Potumac for many years—while the Devon, Dorhini.
Ayrshire, Kfcau-i, and mixed breed of cattlc, now at
this Fair, will compare favorably with any to he
found elsewhere.
The preparations icsde for thisgraurf exhibitiou ty
the city are most ample, even surpassing those of
other and larger cities. The tents, for meeting un
der and for miscellaneous exhibitions, are of the best
kicd, and the entire arrangements st em complete.—
50 ,#r < then, as Richmond is concerned, she has dene
her duty ia putiiug the great agricultural bail in mo
tion; and if the firmer* do not now keep it roliinng,
until the waste places of the State are made to re
semble.garden spots, the blame will be their own.
By the regulations of the Society, none but mem
bers and their families will be admitted within the
enclosures to-dny, in older to afford ths judges a suit
able opportunity of receiving subjects of exhibition.
Baton to-morrow the entire public can goiu admis

tlemen were upon the ground, yestctday, the greater
portion of the day, busily enzaged in receiving stock
and articles for exhibition. The receptacles for fa
brics, fruits and flowers, were not ready early yes
