KORTH AEOOSTOOK SOCIETY. 



This Society held its Exhibition at Presque Isle, Oct. 8d and 4th. 

 The Secretary writes, " Our show of stock was not so large as some 

 former years, owing to bad roads from heavy rains ; yet we had 

 some fine cattle and horses on exhibition. The Fair was the best 

 we ever had. We had specimens of blacksmith work hard to be 

 beat, and we had boots, leather and harnesses not be surpassed in 

 the State ; and best specimens of satinetts and flannels, in fact there 

 ■was no trade that was not handsomely represented. There were no 

 entries for crops. This has been a first rate season for crops of all 

 kinds We had at our Fair some beautiful specimens of corn, beans, 

 wheat, garden vegetables, &c. The immigration continues to flow 

 into this county, we are filling up with a good, hardy set of men 

 and women."
