The time appointed for the Fair, i (next Wednesday,) is near at! hand, and we hope that our people are ! ready with their articles for exposition. To satisfy ourself as to how near ready everything was to meet tne public ex pectation, we strolled out to the grounds on Wednesday evening, and was sur prised and pleased to note the progress of the work—three days more we think will be ample time to complete all prep arations. The grounds are situated nearly a mile west of town, and cover several acres; they are also very level. The track we judge to be a half mile in length, and the level nature of the ground will afford a fiue view to spec tators, as the horses may be seen on ev ery part of it. All the grounds are enclosed with a barbed-wire fence.— The buildings are substantially built, anil consist of a fine expo ition hah, 60x30 ft et. two stories high, and will afford a large area of floor room for ex bibiters, in front of lhe exposition hall, both below and above, are broad piazzas extending the whole length of the structure, and will be made the giand stand, from which thousa .dsof spectators may s e the flying horses as they speed around the truck, coming in within a few f etof hem Opposite the exposition hall is the judges’ stand, from which th. judges can see eveiy portion of the track, a well as be well situated to decide which horse comes under the string fust. South of the exposition hall, across a broad street., is located m ich nery hall. This build ing is alw 00x30 feet one story and will offer considerable room, but we hardly think sufficient for this important branch of industry it may, however, e extended, and made to cover any area des’red when necessity requires. In the rear of the exp sition hall is the stables for fine horses, which have the appearance ot being solid and safe. In addition to these buildings, near the g ite, is a comfortable small room, built we are told for the use of the grounds- keener, in rear of machinery hall, Mr. C. E. Scherer is erecting a nice building 4<)x20 feet, to bo used as a confectionery, restaurant, etc., where he proposes to feed the hungry on the best the land affords, served all hot at a moment’s notice,— In addition to these buildings, there will, of course, be cow stalls, hog pens, poultry coops, etc. We are not aware of what entries have yet been made, «*r whether any, but we would earnest ly urge our people to come promptly forward with their stock, and farm pro duce, the garden and the handiwork of the shop, and let us see what old Burke county has done and can do— and, if you have nothing to show, come yourself and learn hew far you are be hind in this age of progress. Wo hope our ladies will not lug in tin* com pie'ion of articles made by Jieir own fair fingers, department well are now that the 'etc success, and we will ilo all in his so. S.
