This is the most univer-j sal rule of the present day politics.— It works both ways, and measures Republicanism as well as Democracy. The most reliable Republican is the one that reads and reflects the most. See the intelligent free school districts of the north—the most reliable Democrat is the one that reads and reflects the least. See the poor ignorant whites of the South where Democracy lives in its purity.We therefore extend the hand of congratulation to our neighbors over the way, and wish them success in their laudable efforts to get people to read. It is what wc have been at for years. The Times office is n reading room long since established, containing not only the papers of this District but raanj- of tbe loading papers of the whole* Union—the pages of which are at 'all times open to any or all persons, free of charge.

This uncalled for assault upon one of our business men, who, as a matter of business, advertises in the Times, is something unexpected,even in the Examiner, and is a novel way of obtaining advertisements. The editors of that paper must, on the pica of judging others by themselves, view the balance of mankind as dogs, and think the more they lash and abuse them, the more will they, dog like, obey thciu.Eastman George Friuk Lvman A.

Wc have nothing official as to the result, but hear that the Judge declined on account of “business engagements. ” We thought the Judge had almost suspended his business, and was devoting his time to the campaign, but we have no doubt he ranch prefers attending to his “busiuess engagements’' alone, than attempting a personal debate with Mr. Julian.IIon.

For the Fair.On Tuesday next the Annual Exhibition of the Fayette County Agricultural and Mechanical Fair begins, and eon tinues all tbe week. This is the attraction of the whole year in this County. Heretofore, our Fairs liavc not been excelled by any in the State, and we arc assured by the Managers, that this one will equal, if not surpass, any one yet ligld.There is nothing else so marks the standing and progress of a comity, as its annual exhibition of products. In this respect Fayette stands number one —her energetic farmers and median, ies vie with each other in such spirit, as to make it not only a great pleasure to attend the Fair, but profitable to all. Add to this the beauty of the grounds and the convenience of the location, and no one, perhaps, could offer a reasonable excuse for not attending. Although Fayette is a small county, the deficiency is abundantly made up by the energy and wealth of the people. The display of the products of our rich soil, and the products of the mechanical genius of the county, the exhibition of fine, and fast stock, render our Fairs an attraction to all adjoining counties. Fayette is tiic center of one of the best agricultural portions of the State—with the best of railroad communication from nearly all points, tbe Fair is open to the world, and many from other counties contend for the liberal premiums '-Acred. This gives it more importance than a mere county affair. Therefore too much importance cannot well be attached to it by the citizens of this county. It should be patronized by every one.ty-(ThConxeriAto:WHFORT13 1pOSlTIDrill nit)-.
