The October number of the Southern Musical Journal, begins the new vol ume, and, as usual, it is a surprise in excellence. The Publishers do not flood us with promises, but prefer to delight in performances. The rapid - growth in favor is evinced by the fact of the advertisements having overflow ed and crowded even the title page, as much as by the rapid swelling of the subscription list. It is rare to find a low priced paper excellent, and yet the Journal, whose premiums repay its cost. is never poor. Its table of con :tents is varied and interesting.

The Circus.( Within~ the past 10 years, the circus busi- ~ ne.'s in this country has assumed mamn mmth pro portions aind few among the old dwr wh lntec m ide a practiee of at te::di 4hows for yazrs could rec;'gnize in j te c:ircus of to-di.y any of the fizutes I: t' at man the old tim:e shiows anid show 3 maen LAmu! T?he uccessful sh.ow of to- - dav mu.s: not oniv she v. mare, but better ~ ( fattr: s tian ain' presented by hisicoa-d feres in t.he business. As a suecessful eaterer in the show line, Mr. Foregh. stands deservedly at thme head of the pro- v fession, and his grand aggregation now t showing here is the crowning triumph of I his efir's th':s far. The mienagerie is un doubtedly~the finest that has ever bteen ex hibited in the South, and it is questionable if a finer one has ever exhibited in any section of the country, and embracing as it does, some of the most rare and valuable specimens known to naturalists. The circus performance ranks as one of the best that we have seen, and some of its y principal features are worthy of especial j commendation. The troupe of performing ( elephants is unquestionably the show's I great card. These huge beasts are wonder-( fPd, and the quick way in which they obey C the commands of their trainer, is not only a tribute to his talents in the training line, but an illustration of the wonderful sagacity of these huge beasts, who form pyramids stand on their hind legs or on their heads, waltz or lay down at the word ofeon:mzand. The balance of the performance is fully up to the usual standard, and both the lovers of natural history and of a good circus will (do well to visit the great'show.( Mr. Forepaugh would do well to open his ticket wagons at least an hour and a. half before the performance commences, and thus, to a certain extent, put a stop to the ticket speulation now a cause of so much grumbling.

Our last week's notice of the Fair :losed with the first day; on that day he attendance was small. Thursday ut! Friday the attcnd:tree was good, bough not as large as the occasion dle erred. The Fair was a complete suc ,ess in every way, except fin:tncially. [he gate and entry money taken in was iot suflicient to pay expenses and pry niums. The reason of this is that Mos.t >f the exhibitors and visitors tr mew )ers, and therefore pay nothing. The nembership plan is, $15 pays for a fain IV life menbership; $5 for a life mem ership; and $2 for annual member hip; and a member of any kind can nake all the entries he desires to make ree, and pays no gate money. This >lan is calculated to secure a large ex ,ibit; but it does not bring in the ne essary funds. It is proposed to change i hi, plan.

The play, though somewhat monotonous, gives room for some very lne acting, the burden of the playing alling chie4y on the "Esther" and the "Marquise." These parts were admi eably sustained. "Eccles" anid "Sam' tlled the audience with mirth and Laughter. The play passed off so pleas. intly that there was a genuine feeling :>f regret that it was not continued a tep or two further, so as to reform "Eccles"t and make a sober, respectabl( itizen out of him. The Club has some fine histrionic tal ent; and their selections and renditiomn are always first class. One Negro Kills Another with his Fist.

It was thi- Le gislature that appropriated 8i100) as a gift to Mrs. Randolph. daurhter of Thomas Jefferson. of Virginia. Col. Griffin voted against the appropriation, and thereby rendered himself very pop ular in the County. and our impression k is he was re-elected in 162 . O'Neail and Moon voted for the appropriation. and became for the time so unpopular that, notwithstanding the fact that O' Neall was Speaker of the Iiouse, and the best Speaker that ever occupied the position, both were defeated of a re- tt election in the fall of 1828. O'Neail was elected Judge the following De cember by the Legisiature. d Col. Griffin retired from polities early in life. He was a man of considerable wealth before the war, and lived a quiet and useful life upon his plantation. 'Col. Griffin was for fifty years a con- E sistent and honored member of Bash [ River (Baptist) Church. the oldest church in New berry County.
