POTTER, for Liverpool, which aa heen loading here for some time, was cleared yesterday by MOBSTB. WILLIS ?_ CHISOLM, with tho largest cargo of tho season, consisting of l? bale. Sea Island Cotton and 3805 bales Upland Cotton. Tho Hudson is & very superior mer chantman, and makes a flret-rato cotton carrier, as will be noticed from the size of her cargo. THE FAin.-The ladies of tho Fair havo yielded to tho urgent request of throngs that still crowd tlioir beautiful hall, and have consented to closo the Fair to-night, with a Anal e hi Jjition of their inimitable tableaux. The hall, though void of some of the costly splendor that graced it at its first opening, is still beautiful. The thronging^happy crowd of young people alone proaonts^ffl- attraotion that will move with pleasure and admiration tho most Btoical,-but throw around the brilliant scene the charms of music, as is hore dono, and tho thousand aud one innocent entertainments that the ingenuity of tho ladiss havo gathered there-and we are not sur prised that tho public aro lothe to see it finally closed. To thoBO who havo never attended an auction, we havo no doubt that the grand finale .Will bo the most entertaining of all. But wo must not omit saying a few words about the efforts of our fair friends last night. The hall was, perhaps, botter filled than on any pre vious night. The tableaux well aeleotod and ad mirably rendered; Misa Bqueers administering tho sulphur and molasses, on tho plea of a cure or prophylactic of scobies, but really to' reduce the appotites of the young disciples of the York shire seminary. The acting was capital; fow would have recognized the angel of the previous night in the termagant Miss Sqneera to-night; and tho little ecamps swallowed the dose with each extremely natural wry faces and contortions, that tho audi?-ce was convulsed with laughter. Taking the "Veil was the next tableau, also very fine. And tho now nun looked charming; in fact, as if nun she waa none. Norma waB re-enacted at the general request of those who had not witnossed it the first time. The beautiful Miss P. looked up most beseechingly at the relentless Norma, and Bang the "Hear mc, Norma," as no other cantatrice in MI?B city could equal. Tina was a rare treat. The Fair ia much indebted to the indefatigable labors of this young lady for a large measuro of ita BUCCCBS. Mrs. CIIAVIN and others, we will not name at all this morning. As the Fair is to terminate to-night, we shall have an opportunity of recapitulating all that is worthy of record. And with this promise we closo, and wait till to-night. PBOVOST CODBT, May 29_United Statea ... ED WARD WEL8H, whito, and William Gadedon, color ed-Fighting in street.-Sergeant NEWMAN, of the city police, sworn, stated that last evening about a quarter to 8 o'clock, saw a largo crowd in King street, got through them, and found defendants clenched and fighting: the colored boy with a strap making a noise and disturbance, with a very large crowd around him. Finod 15 each, or be imprisoned for six days. United States vs. Adam Deas, colored-Sweep ing chimney without license.-Sergoant NEWKAN, police, sworn, says he found defendant in tho street without an agont or liconae, contrary to tho city ordinance. He could show neither; arrested him according to a standing order of the contractor. Fined $5, or be imprisoned for three days. United Statea vs. J.

There were somo other caacB, of very little ii tereat, however. O.B Savannah contemporaries describo, wit considerable enthusiasm, an excursion they ha on Saturday last, to Thunderbolt, and a ya c1 race. We copy from tho Republican : The two contestants, the Minnie and the Jai X., with their respective baokors and friends, t the appointed hoar weighed ?ncbor, and were o: The Jane L. leading the Minnie and running fro kept tho load for some timo. Tim wind was fret and fair on the going out stretch, and the Jane . shipped a good deal of water, which probably ht somo influence upon the rosjult of th- race. Bot boats wore well managed, and by tho time tin turned the buoy, the Minnie led hor antagoni by some two hundred yards. Here the oonte became very exciting. Evidently the game li with the Minnie, who, on the homeatret.h, provi tho olosost sailor against the wind. Sho mai tainod her lead throughout the homo etrotc coming in ahead forty-nine seconda, and the wi ser of tho purae. The following ia the time made by o ach.

H.-Tho Augusta Chronicle <fc Sentinel of yesterday says : "Wo aro roquoated to advisoour Edgeflold friends that a railroad meeting will ho hold next Monday, Juno 4th, salo day, at the Court House. It is understood that tho meeting will bo addreesod by Governor FICKENS, Govornor BONHAM, Colonel JOHNSTON, and othor distinguished gentlemon. Tbo object of the meeting is tho consideration of the necessity for a spoody completion of tbo Columbia and Augusta Railroad. This road runs through Etlgoflold District fifty miles, and there aro only two stockholders at present from Edge field District. Wo hope our Edgefield fiiends will seo tho urgent necessity for a speedy completion of this road. "Tbo next fall promises a heavy immigration to the South. Tho beautiful country which lies con tiguous to tbo village and along the ridgo, is just Buch land which small farpaers will want. Heal thy, well-watered, producing fine vegetables., ono of the flnost fruit regions, being Boldom injured by frost-growiug poaches, grapes, applos, cur rants, pearn, chorrios and plums. Tho soil is easily cultivated, brings good crops of cotton, corn and wheat. " But those lands aro now oheap becauso inac cessible. Tbo completion of this road will greatly enhance thoir value-bringing all their surplus within easy reach of Augusta, Charleston and Sa vannah." ALMOST AN ACCIDENT.-The Savannah Advertiser, of Monday, says : "On Friday night, just after the Presbyterian clock had ctruck ten, the dwell orB for several blocks in tho vicinity were alarmed by a terrible crash in the church. Common re port had it that tho bell bad fallen, as the clock was silent for tbo remainder of tbo night, Next morning revealed tbo extent of the damage Tho ropo holding tho striking weight of tho clock had become old and worn, and tho jar of striking the hour caused it gradually to looson and give way, till at lust it parted, and down carno the heavy weight, crashing through tho immediato floors and ceilings, and carrying everything before it, till its further progress WIIH stopped by the solid, stone floor of the vestibule. Tho weight consists of a large and heavy box filled with stones and sand. Fortunately tho damage done was not ex tensivo. "It ?B providential that thiB accident occurred when it did, while no one was about tbo church. Had it happened thirty-nix hours later, whilo per sons wero about mtering the church, it would certainly havo caused tho loss of valuable lives. "The clock was taken down on Saturday for necessary repairs and cloaning. While the Trus tees havo tho mattor in hand, wo would respect fully suggest that the east dial is sadly in ncod of renovation." THE Editor of the Atlanta Christian Indez pa^B the following touching tributo to a worthy lady, known to many persons in this city. It ia our painful duty to record tho fact that on Mon day morning last, at 4 o'olook, Mrs. Mary Ann Brantly, wife of onr much loved brother, the Rev. Wm. T. Brant ly, D. I)., and daughter of that eminent saint, the late Dr. Wm. H. Turpin, of Augusta, departed this life. We have no language to oxprots our grief. She waa one of the dearest friends we ever knew. Save those to whom we are bonnd by ties of common blood, none over occu pied a higher place in our esteem, or In onr affections, For many years abo had been li<re a sister, reciprocat ing, we aro happy to say, onr warm regards ; and now that she has ?ono, we feel bereaved. Another heart-ache baa boen added to a heart already aorely smitten, and more tears most come to eyes accustomed to shedding them. Our tenderest sympathies are exolted for our afflicted brother in this hour of ris calamity. Be, too, is bound to us by no common ties. Forty years age we wero school-boys together, we grew np together, we went down into the water together, and were baptized on tba samo day, by bia father, the ever honored Brant ly of former days-and in latter years the friendship of our youth h sa ripened Into mellow maturity. We ti a ve rejoiced In the success which baa run parallel with bia lile, and now in his affliction we aro afflicted. One com mand wo find it easy to obey-to " weep with them that weep." Mrs. Brantly was a moat superior woman. Amiable and elegant, accomplished and gifted, devout and honor able, gentle and lovely, it la but seldom that human na ture appears in forma so attractive. And now the bat angelic nature 1 We thank God for that assurance ; and if we have one less friend on earth we have one more li heaven, and it may be that as sore aa thta temporary bereavement may seem, the ga'n ia more than the lost to na who remain, no leis than to the bleat spirit re moved from our companionship to that of the angel? and of the Saviour. The Army of Northern Virginia. The concluding paragraph in an article in ti? Crescent Monthly, entitled "General LEE and hil Campaigns," by J. QUITHAN MOORE, Esq.. is th< moat grateful and touching tribute to tua gal lant Army of Northern Virginia and it? last ant moat ronowned ohief that wo havo read: "Thore stood tho mournful remnants of tba once glorious army that bad dipped its conquer ing banners in the crimson tide of eight and t wen ty sanguinary battles, and strewn its horoic slaii from the feet of tbo Pennsylvania mountains ti the gates of its own capital city; that had givei Manassae to Beauregard, and twined the fame o tbe Seven Fines' battle in tho laurel wreath o Jobneton; that had caused the waters of the She naudoah eternally to murmur the tamo of Stone wall Jackson, and stretching its right arm ou to tbo distant West, had planted victory on th drooping banners of Bragg; that had witncssei four gigantio camoaigns, and through all thei shifting and tragic scones, and under all difiO cnlties and dangers, had remained stoadfas ahd faithful to the last. And after having w11 ?osBod the rising of tho Southern constellatioE aB it loomed up brightly on the horizon ( war, pursuing to its splendid zenith the fler path of MarB, now beheld, not unmoved, it declining splendors going down in the glooi of eternal night. And ho, its illustrious ouiof whoso lofty plume was ever its ral)ying point i battle, and around whom its affections warml clustered, now commended it for its past devotioi and bade it adieu forovor. Slowly and Hadly li rode from that mournful field, and the causo tha bo fought for was boncatb the foot of powe: Few wero tho oyes that grow not moist at witneai ing that departure It was tho agony of a gres eau?? finding expression in the sublime soul of ii great defender. And though that ciuse be do&< yet will its memory continue to live, and evi honored will be those illustrious names that BACI flced at it? altars. And on the scroll of fame i narnu among the list or ominent worthies w. shino with a purer, serenar, or moro resplendo: light than that or Robert Edmund Lee. HU fan is monumental. His name will bo placed alon sido those of the great captains of history-Mai borough and Saxo, or Tilly and Eugene; and i long as tho fame of the Southern struggle shl linger in tradition and song, will his me mor? 1 cherished by tho descendant* of the Bootftoi races; while his oharaotor will stand np in t) twilight of history like some grand old cathodn lifting itself in imperishable beauty above tho o jocts of earth, mnjustio in its vast proportion awful in its solemn sUtelineBS, sublime in i l:|eovero?taplicity," BUSINESS NOTICES.
