Oa account nf pressing buriness engfige-menti, we have not, much to our regret, been able to be present at the tit'ih annual fair of the 1 El Dorado County Agricultural Society, held nt; Diamond Springs thia week, us much as our j inclination suggested, The fair has been ft i iaccess, and ahmiitl bare been an eminent sue- j ceu, but from same cause, which we cannot j understand, our vicinity has done but little for j it. We regret exceedingly that so few enntri- | button# to the exhibition were made by 1’lu- j ecrvilie, when her mechanic:} and fruit grow, j «rs could hare made s* fine a display of their | handiwork and productions. We hope tint1, our people will cultivate a greater degree of in* j terest in the objects of the Society and hIoav a j higher appreciation of its efforts for the public ■ good hereafter, than they have in this instance, | for surely all will be benefited by the dewl. j opment of the agricultural and mineral wealth j of our county and the improvement of the mechanic arts in our midst.
