S'ICIAL 1'OlUt1IH'N1ENCE NICWS AND IERA.D.
COLUNIA, Nov. 17.-The most in
portant features of the Fair, just
closed in this city, can be briefly
set forth for those readers of TnyE
NEws AND HERALD who wore not in
- attendance. While the officers of
the society congratulated them
Csolvos upon the snecoss which has
greeted their offorts, I am con
strained to the belief that, taking all
things into consideration, it is not
just what they expectod, or hoped
for. Nevertheless, it ill becones a
newsp,aper man to condemn that
ilwhich ho cal so faintly criticise, and
perhaps, after all, the mood is not
neasured by what has been attained,
but by that which under still moro
happy auspices (paregorically speak
ing) many be looked for.
THE FIRST DAY
of the Fair found the grounds in
somewhat of confusion, incident to
the inevitable rush at the last hour.
The invinciblo secretary, Col. Thos.
W. Holloway, however, by dint of
his usual exertions, overcamo such
difileulties as presented' themselvos
in this respect, so that by the regu
lation time on the following morn
ing, he was able to nicely adjust his
eye-glasses, and tell you to a T
where every article placed on exhi
bition was exactly located.
I am forced, right here, to dopart
from my usual custom, and make a
remark of a somewhat personal
nature. I rise to explain that
during the general inspection that
followed the admissior of the crowd
into the grounds, the off-eyo of the
secretary, as well as of several vice
presidents who were intently study
ing his conutenance, invariably
turned to the mnanamnoth field pro
ducts of old Fairtiold. Notably,
there was a pit upkin-the Brob
dignagian proportions of which gave
Iuplo evidence of comfortably ac
commnodating the entiro list of the
judges that had been appointed to
pass upon its merits. The well
known modesty and integrity of
your correspondent will sustain him
in the venture that not only the
gentlemen so well known in nursery
4 literature, but divers oth6r persons
could have nmaintained a respectable
establishment within its corporate
limits.
But I am digressing; The Fair
was duly opened, and each particu
lar item of the progranne faithfully
executed. There was
A 1'TS1LAY OF H[oRsEs
on WVednesday that would have re.
flected credit upon the man who in
vented thorm. From the exhibits of
one, two, three, four, live, six and
seven y'ear olds, the f.ratifying fact
wits apparent thait as fine a breed of
bloodedl horses Cal) be p)roduced in
South Carolina as in Kentucky.
THE cHIEF DAY or THlE FAIR
was Thursday. The programme
was more interesting, and a much
'a larger crowd was attracted on that
day than oni any other. The num
ber present exceeded the most san
-guine exp)ectations, some persons
estimating it at from eight to ten
thousand. At ten o'clock all the
visiting companies were formed into
line, and marched to the grounds
under command of Gon, F, M. Bam,
borg. The parrade cosisted of the
Coluimbia Artillery Band, the Walk,
er Light Guard, of Richmond, Va.,
thirty-four men ; Clark Light In
0fatntry, Augusta, forty' mon ;, Caro
lina Military Institute Cadets,
Charlotte ; Governor's Guard, Co0
lumbia, twenty-six men ; Imo Light
In fantry, Chiesteri, thirty-two men;
BuThther Riflks, Hodges, thirty-throe
tmenl ; Neber Rifles, twenty four
men; Carolina Rifle B3atallion, de
tachament., Charleuton, twenty men;
Riichaland Volunteers, Columbia,
twent.y-four mon ; (Columbia Artil,
lery, thirty-two men and four gunDS;
Rlic hmo nd .11ussars, Augusta, thirty
meon. At twelve o'clockc, the contest
began, the juidgesf being Lieutenants
.BDomtfotrd and Baldwin, 18th U. S. A.
and Lieutenanrt Adams, 5ith U. S.
Arfillery. Tfhe dirill and the mnanual
of aurms woerd almost- perfect, andle
"elicited hear by apphilause. VictQwy
unalyperhe Gon. The bnner%(U
Capt. H. S. Thompson. The result,
out of a possible three hundred
points, was as follows :
Richland Voluntcors, Columbia
manual of arms, score 243; on the
drill, 242.
Clark Light Infantry, Augusta
manual of arms, 275; drill, 266.
Walker Light Guards, Richmond,
Va.-inanual, 235; drill, 261.
Governor's Guard, Columnbia
manual, 290 ; drill, 292.
During the exciting scenes in
cident to this triumph the most
prominent figures upon the grounds
wore, of course,
GOVERNORS HAMPTON AND VANCE,
who reviewed the troops. The
latter remarkod when the Georgians
come upon the field that northern
Georgia was settled at last by
North Carolinians, and their display
was quite as creditable to North
Carolina as to Georgia. At this
point a faint suggestion was made
by the Governor of North Carolina
to the Governor of -South Carolina,
and the reportorial eye next wan
dered to the spot whore the two
chiefs reviewed the eclipse. The
military review by both Governors
and their respective staffs is said
to have been the finest inspection of
ex-Confederate military whiph has
taken place since the histor'c sur.
render of the "Governor of Georgia
East of the Oconee."
On Thursday evening the ball of
the South Carolina Club was given
in the hall of the House of Repre,
sentatives. It was a grand affair,
four or five hundred of the elite of
South Carolina and our sister
States being present.
THE ATTENDANCE ON FRIDAY,
though by no means equal to that.
of the preceding day was good.
The chief interest centred in the
competition of companies of the
State outside of Clialeston and
Columbia. The competitors were
the Lee Light Infantry, the Butler
Riflemen, the Newberry Rifles, and
the Ninety-Six Rifles. The Butlers
won by a score of 212. Next fol-.
lowed the team shooting. Eleven
teams entered. The German
Fusiliers, of Charleston, won by 119
out of a possible 150 ; the Sumter
Guards, of Charleston, second, and
the Richmond Hussarx third. The
Fairfield team showed good pluck,
but had bad not the practice of the
older teams, and stood lowest on
the list.
Retracing somewhat, mention
should be made of the addresa
on Wednesday, of Governor Vance
and Mr. H. P. Kimball, the Secre
tary of the Winnebago Agricultural
Society, of Illinois. It was the
latter who, a year ago, broke the
ice between the sections by inviting
Jefferson Davis to deliver an ad
dress. The Radicals howled at the
time, but Mr. Kimball was f1riner
and swore that Mr. Davis should
come. Mr. Davis, however, very
properly withdrew his acceptance.
This year Governor Hampton was.
invited by Mr. Kimball, and went.
and made a happy hit. Mr. Kimball
delivered an able- address, paying
tribute to the South and her sons.
It is unnecessary to speak of Gov
ernor Vance to those who have
heard him, and to those who-have
not, he cannot be described. He
was enthusiastically recei;ved.
It is impossible to review in this.
