J - ' ': j ;' CEREMONIES POSTPONED. :iT-.. ; Teeterday, the 14th of fovemher, was the day; designated for the opening; of the Third Annual Fair of the Cape Fear -Agrlcultuial Association. During the' night preceding, howTer, the weather beoame very boisterous and; threatening ; finally the unwelcome rain commenced ; falling, and before the dawn of theiday to which so many looked for waid with such pleasurable anticipations, the storm had burst noon us with great severity," which Increased In fury as the morning advanced and continued unabated un 11 near the middle of thejdayU , ; , ; i, - ; J At last the welcome sunshine made its ap pearance, but too late or the larger number of citizens and visitors to avail themselves of the opportunity of gblng: to the grounds. Of cOdrse the ceremonies, incident , to the open ing of the Fair had to be postponed until this mjorning, as the crowd at no time during the day was sufficient to constitute a respectable audience. V The grounds during the day, however, were nbj entirely devoid of interest to such as. had braved the inclemency of the weather, ana re paired thither. In fact, during the afternoon things began to assume quite an animated ap pearance. The different Halls began to fill up rapidly with articles of all kinds for exhibi tion, which were being appropriately arranged; and on the grounds different kinds of ma chinery were put In motionthe riders for the Tournament were practising for the coming contest for the charnvdonshin. the Indiana were displaying their skill with the bow and arrow, and the Rose Bud Band discoursed ex cellent music, ever and anon, t add to the cheerfulness of the scene. J Owinjr to the tact that manv of the exhibi tors, in consequence of the rain, were not able to get their articles ; properly arranged until lata in the afternoon, and also taking into con sideration the fact that many additions will probably, be made this morning, we thought proper to defer any extended notice of the display in the dlffesent departments until to morrow. We will, however, allude to some ol the articles found in the lower, or fl AGRICULTURAL HALL. if I Here we found a fine display of native grasses, hay or sheaf cats, specimens of pea yines, fodder and shucks five varieties in all, exhibited by Capt. Thlgpen, of Edgcombe, and which were very creditable. He also exhibits three varieties of oa s. three of peas, two of , lorn and two of sweet , potatoes, one of the 44 poses, and the omer ine poiaio raiseu irum these "slips" and fully matured. Heshowedus a 'spVcImen of Irish potatoes, which he states are the second crop from the same land, - . M . J planted in July, and raised from the seed of the first crop, gathered earlier in the year. He aiso has a -fine specimen of turnips -on exhibi tion, which he states were; plautcd between the rows of the potatoes in September, and yielded a handsome crop. Capt. Tblgaen also exhibits .what s is known as the European squash, the seed of which was imported from France, and a specimen of Edgecombe bacon. fis display in field products, Ac, being altogether among the finest we have ever seea at any Fair. ; . In this Department we also found a lot of second growth native hay, raised and exhibited by Mr. James Norwood, of Hillsboro, which yielded ten thousand pounds to the acre ; also nativerasses three varieties in all, which are hard to beat. We noticed a bale of fine native hay from Wayne, bit did not learn tBe name of ihe exhibitor. - v , Two pumpkins, of huge proportions, among a number of specimens, attracted considerable attention, one of them weighing one hundred and ten and the other eighty-four pounds. jtbey were raised by Capt T. A. Grainger, of Wayne county. We shall allude further to articles in. this department to-morrow, when there will probably he many additions, f " : LIVESTOCK. I In horses so far, the stock is lamentably 'deficient as to numbers. , The only animal worthy of special mention which we found upon the grounds was V Orphan l$oy," a magnlficient dark bay stallion, 7, years 01a next Spring, the property of Sheriff y. V. Richardson, Columbus county. He is certainly a beamtlfai creature, as all who w wiU tesUfy, and will be yery likely to take the premium as a trotting nag. . . ; , " We noticed some Chester hogs, between 4 and5montMB old, Yery large and fine for their age, exhibited by Capi Thlgpen, of Edge combe, Also a fine Devon bull, A,not 3 years old, exhibited by Mr. J. P. Richards, of this county. ; !.;, v?H-4 i 'iX !n .-'"...STEAM ENGINES. -; , With the exception of the New Hampshire engine, which has been on the Fair Grounds since the first iexhiblllonlthere Is but "one steam engine on exhibition. ' This isa ten horse portable engine from the Metropolitan Works of Messra. Wni. K Tanner & Co.; of Richmond, 'and Is one of the' most beautiful oleeesof machinery we hare ever seen. CoL Tanner-vho is here as the representative of bisflrm, may well be proud of this splendid specimen of work. r . .. POULTRY. , In ducks, the .exhibition of poultry is very good ; but. with this exception, it is inferior to that of last year. In game fowls the dis play is notably deficient as regards numbers, The Aylesbury and Rouen ducks, and a cross tuiiMn tha R'onen and common d"uck. are especially deserving of notice. There may be creditable additions hereafter. 4 THINGS IN GENERAL, Floral Ball Is very handsomely decorated with brier vines, arranged in such; a manner as to present an exceedingly neat and attrac appearance, reflecting great credit upon the ladles who extended : so must effort m its ' . ----- uuraiaenui ,vve shall note ; the articles on exhibition at anothef time. - " - .

The third annual meeting of the cape Fear Agricnltural Association was held at the Court House last evening. ' - On motion of Col. A. A. McKoy It was resolved that, owing to the inclemency of the weather on Tuesday, the present Fair be con- Psiunr? Economy was then read by Capt. J. R. Thig pen, and on motion of Col. McKoy the author was requested to furnish a copy for publica tion. CoL McKoy offered the following resel ution , which was adopted Whereas, The Roanoke and Tar River Agricultural Association, at its last annual meeting, did by re4ution request C pt. Jas. R. Tbjgpen, editor 61 the Reconstructed Farmer to visit the different parts of the State and lecture - upon the subject of agriculture; therefore, 4 Resolved, That we most heartily endorse 6aid resolution and join in the -request, believing, as we do, that the indbmkable energy, great agricultural research and thor oughly practical ideas of our friend render him eminetly fit for this mission.;. Col. McKoy also moved that a committee pf three be appointed to report a plan for agri cultural lectures in the counties of this section. The Chair appointed Col. McKoy, Capt. Thlgpen and Dr. Arrington as the committee. The regular business of the meeting was followed by a very interesting discussion, which was participated in by the President and Messrs. McKoy, Murphy, Thigpen, Ar rington, Nutt, Engelhard,.Branson and Wood ward. ' " .. . i Anniversary Celebration, ' ' The first anniversary of Stonewall Lodge No. 1, K. of P., came off last night On account of the press on our columns our notice of the affair must necessarily be very brief. A large crowd was present and an interesting time was had. The exercises were opened by prayer by Rev. F. H. Wood, follow ed by the singing of the opening Ode. Appropriate introductory remarks were then made by Worthy Chancellor Wm. M. Poisson, after which the anniversary address was delivered by J. J. V Fowler, Esq., which we hear very highly commended. ; The address was followed by Prof. Grabau in several select pieces on the , organ, accompanied by j the choir. Rev. F. 11., Wood then made -a few concluding remarks,- the r benediction" was pronounced and the crowd dispersed, having spent an evening of genuine-pleasure such as is seldom vouchsafed to mortals, j ' - .Tito Tournaxoent.-!i-:, .v'1 It being impossible for a number of gentle men who desire to ride at the Tournament o find time to practice with the sabre, after conference with those who desire to enter, the Committee have decided to change to the lance.

The delays be tween the scenes,: 'which, so often prove ob noxious to theatre i goers, were, "we are happy to say, "like angels' visits, few and far be tween,'! and in fact these delays are not expe rienced by the audiences of the Worrell' Sis ters. Mr. Jackson surpassed himself in the role he played. Miss - Sophie Worrell was as spirited and fascinating as sire possibly could be. Miss Irene showed by her modest and un assuming air that she had determined to make for herself and sisters hosts of friends, while Miss Jennie was none the less: bewitching, playing her part with suh ease and grace that it was the theme of conversation during the intervals. We predict.for her many friends wherever she may go. Mr. Harry Jackson's speciality was exceedingly w'ell t! rendered while his living 'photographs of Napoleon I, King William of Prussia and Bret Harte could not have been excelled. The Leojas, in their inimitable specialities, ihe "-Imperial Japs" and their own peculiar Double Trepeze, brought forth encor&SLlter encore. Miss Jennie Willmore Frank was spirited and dashing, playing the part she assumed with grace and ease. - , .-v To-night will be presented the great success of the day, "The Field of the Cloth of Gold," and the farce of 'Crossing the Line."
