WILMINGTON CAPE FEiQ AG HICITL.TUR AI ASSOCIATION. F 1 ftli Anna "a Fair SECOND DAY. Another mild and beautiful day, with scarcely a, cloud to dim the prospect, dawn ed upon us yesterday and lent its cheerful fnuence to the success of the second day's session or the Fair of the Cape Fear Agri cultural Association.. There was a very large increase in the number in attendance upon the grounds and all seemed to be pleased with what they saw and heard. There was also perceptible a very considerable increase in the number of entries, particularly in the different Halls, -which presented a very en couraging appearance. In a stroll through the various departments, we noted the fol lowing objects of interest: ; . FLORAL HALL. ""I Our -limited space yesterday, preventing an extended account of Floral Hall, we made another tour of this certainly attrac tive spot, and were much pleased with the result of our inspection. The floor and ceil ing on all sides present a beautiful view of evergreens,, wreathed into all sorts of fantastic shapes, looped in each crevice and corner," and again spread but into beautiful forms until the entire Hall seems to give evidence that nature has been robbed to do it honor and add to its charms. Here the real beauty and attractiveness of the Fair seems to have, centered. In short, this Hall presents a natural green tinted back ground, froni which peer forth, as figures : on a pic- ture a beautiful array: of landscape paint ings and crayon drawing vby Misses W. A. Wood, L. V. Satchwell, Bailie. Price, Mary Devine, Bailie Carter an'd Mary Darby; pupils of the Academy of Incarnation. These paintings-and drawings- attracted much attention, and are really meritorious, being the v work of . very youthful- pupils. Just across from the above collection is exhibit ed a very much admired collection of oil paintings of landscapes, &c., and one beau tiful wax cross, the work of Miss Lillie Van- Bokkekn.v The young Jady certainly dis plays much talent in herpaintings. ' At the lelt or the latter collecuon are some six or seven very charming oil paintings of land scape views by Mrs. J. C. Mann, and one by Bennie Mann; 7 years old. The above three collections of paintings and sketches form a very attractive feature inFloral Hall as they shine out from the wreaths of ever greens that are so artistically woven about them, giving evidence of the progress of our section in the beautiful art of painting. Floral Hall is peculiarly the ladies depart ment, and of course owes its attrac tiveness and beauty to that fact. The long tables , are literally strewn with the evidences of their handiwork-, con sisting of embroidery, quilts, tetting, crochet work, worsted work, iu quantities and in various styles too numerous to men tion. .We have only space for a few. A handsome silk quilt is entered here by Mrs. C. H, King; another of foreign make by the sisters of the Academy of the Incarna tion. Mrs. G. W. Pugh also enters a hand some quilt, and Mrs! B. G. Lenehan a col lection of embroidery of ' various patterns. Here was also to be found a fine display of worsted work by Miss Sallie . Cowan, a young miss of twelve years;: a handsome large boquet of wove flowers by Mrs. E. R McGowan. another by Mrs. J. M. Hinton; a really beautiful oil painting executed by Master Elliot Dangerfield, a youth of four teen years; waxwork by Mrs. J. M. French; a fine collection of embroidery by Miss Jennie Oberry, a young miss bf eleven years; a very fine opera cloak, beautiful in texture and appearance, by Mrs. T. J.Boutherland; a crayon' drawing ' and sket cbes by Miss Vic. Gore. Upon a table in the centre of the. room are displayed, some very choice lots of preserves, jellies, cheeses and other articles of that kind, by Mrs. Peterson and others. . Floral Hall, all day yesterday, pre sented a scene of activity unequalled on any other portion of the ground, all seeming to testify by frequent visits their appreciation of its inviting appearance. Ladies thronged the passages ahd-Xhe numerous articles ex hibited were the subjects of their Jfayorable scrutiny and comments, each - tasty parcel and collection baying its admirers! V - ' ' .' AGKICULTUBJLL HALL. '- - V , The first thing , that attracted our atten- tion here, not previously noticed, was acol lection of articles exhibited by G.Z. French, Esq., of . this county, among which , we noticed a lot of Earth or mineral paint; iron ore; a specimen, of - course marl good for siaewaixs; piacs. muca ior leruuiug; r specimen of Sea Island cotton, raised as an experiment; a specimen' of bread corn, one ear of which contained one thousand grains. He raised 43 bushels and 6 quarts to an acre of this corn, after taking off a crop of "Mar row faf Deas. and used" no fertilizer. In his collection was also a specimen of Lima beans, millet for fodder, &c. Of native hay we noticed specimens ex hibited br Messrs. Nortbrbp & Camming, of this city, KcKoy &Boyken, of Sampson, and James Norwood,' of Orange.. "Messrs, . . v . 4 ..... j 1 'i- . .

C:, THURSDAY, ly use, and for steamboats, hotels and side-1 walks. nOBTICTJIiTXJItAL HALU, Among the articles in this department not heretofore alluded to, may be mentioned the following : A lot of Dickson' duster Cotton, a very fine article, exhibited byJtfr.' David. Dick son, the noted planter.. A lot of cotton stalks, with blooms, ex- hibited by Mr. J. J. Pearce, of , Billiards- ton TTanh (Vinntr WfT TrfittV -BTWMimen. I ) w vw-y i J X "J i 1 The Cape Fear Building Company, of Ab- bottsburg, have on exhibition here speci mens of their workmanship, cobsisting of a wire safe, samples of moulding, ballisters, ,brackets,;fec., which are very creditable. In boots and shoes,' very fine collections are exhibited by Megsrs. C. A. Price and Evans & Von Glahn. , ; Mr. J. K,. Alien, who has lately, com menced business in this city, has on ex hibition a: very handsome . assortments of watches, clocks, jewelry, &c. , which are very tastefully arranged and show to great advantage. Messrs. J. & J. Johnson, agents of Wheel er & -Wilson's sewinz machines, make a very creditable display, and exhibit some choice specimens bf their workmanship. Our attention was particularly struck with a sample of figure work executed on patent leather and' placed in frame and which has the appearance of being printed. t FAYETTE VIIXE. Our noble Cape Fear sister, always among the first in skill and enterprise, is very well represented in the two lower halls. Here we find the Diamond Cotton Chop per and. Cultivator, the invention of Mr. J. B. Underwood, of Fayetteville, which attracted a great deal of . attention. Mr, Underwood was present and explained the manner of its use and its many labor-saving qualities. It has taken the first premi um, we believe, at every Fair at which it has- been exhibited and we were shown yes terday a splendid gold medal which was awarded it as the most important Improve ment in Agricultural implements during the past year. Mr. A. A. McKethan has on exhibition a very fine open buggy, of his own manufac ture, which received very flattering com mendations from visitors on account of the beauty and taste displayed in its workman- ship.' - ' - Mr. Walter Watson has a fine display of turpentine tools, of his own manufacture, consisting of the combined Scraper and Pusher, patented by . him, round shaves, hackers, &c. His tools are now in exten sive use in North and South Carolina and Georgia and are regarded with much favor on account of the character of the metal used in their manufacture and; their conse quent durability. . Mr. Wm. O verby exhibits what is termed the Improved Spinning Wheel, a very simple and useful Kentucky invention, the right of which be has purchased for this section of the State. It can be attached to a table or any similar contrivance and can be work ed by a child. ' MACHINERY DEPARTMENT, The contest between the Remington Needle Gin, and Taylor Saw Gin, which was to have taken place yesterday, was post poneduntUthbmonung,whenthosodirect - ly intetested in agricultural - implements, may witness the competitioa, which . pro mises to be an interesting feature of this department. The Taylor Gin is one of long. standing, while the remington um.is said to be an improvement on the process of ginning cotton. The latter is being in troduced in this section, by Capt : B. H. True. v " : poultbt. ' In a stroll among the chicken coops we noticed some very fine specimens of the feathered tribe, among which may be men tioned a lot of game chickens, by R. O Grant; gold and silver Hamburg, by W. M. Parker; a trio of Buff China, very fine and large, a lot of gray Brahmas grade pullets, &C.. by Mrs. a Bethel: trio , of buff Chinas by. G. Z.

XjIVB STOCK. . :f l- In this department there is a very fine dis play. , We learn that there are about twen ty-three race horses and trotters on 'the grounds, including seven from Columbia, S. C, five from Weldon, exhibited by Mr. T. L. Emry, of Weldon; two from Wash- - d ington City, and some from Virginia. We I shall refer to this particular department more at length in our next issue, I Of other stock we noticed Big Guinea I and Essex hog, two years old, weighing auuub 'aov pounos, exniDueo. oy jxl. xaison; a Berkshire pig, Essex sew and Essex boar, by W.

M. O'Hara, who walked around the race course until he had accomplished the dis tance of five miles, which feat he executed in 49 minutes and 26 seconds, walking , a half mile" and sixty1 yards of that distance backwards. This beats Weston, who, if we mistake not, accomplished the feat in Raleigh in 57 minutes. Mr. O'Hara is a native of Ireland and has been in this coun try about five years.
