A STRIKING CONTRAST.--It is impossible to imagine a more striking contrast than is now presented in the agricultural fairs which are being held from one end of this country to the other, and the scenes which are now taking place in Europe. Whilst the principal powers of Europe are plunged into a destructive war, whilst they are loaded down with debt, and even the earth refuses to yield her increase, peace and plenty bless our happy land, and hold high festival in every portion of her wide domain.
