VALUABLE AND LABOE CARGO.-The American ship Hudson; C?pt. POTTER, for Liverpool, which baa been loading here for some time, was cleared yesterday by Mesare. WILLIS & CHLSOLM, with tho largest cargo of the season, consisting of 113 bales Sea Island Cotton and 3865 bales Upland Cotton. The Hudson is a very superior mer? chantman, and makes a first-rate cotton carrier, as will be noticed from the size of her cargo. THE FATB.-The ladies of the Fair have yielded to the urgent request of throngs that still crowd their beautiful hall, and have consented to close the Fair to-night, with a final e: hi bition 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 presenta an attraction that will move with pleasure and admiration the most stoical,-but throw around the brilliant scene the charms of music, as is here done, and the thousand and one innocent entertainments that the ingenuity of the ladies have gathered there-and we are not sur? prised that the public are lothe to see it finally dosed. To those who have never attended an auction, we have no doubt that the grand finale will be the most entertaining of all. But we must not omit saying a few words about. the efforts of our fair friends last night. The | hall was, perhaps, better filled than on any pre- ] viona night. The tableaux well selected and ad? mirably rendered; Mia* Squeers administering j the sulphur and molasses, on the plea of a cure or prophylactic of scabies, but really to reduce j the appetites of the young disciples of the York? shire seminary. The acting was capital; few! would have recognized the angel of the previous | night in the termagant Miss Squeers to-night; and the little scamps swallowed the dose with such extremely natural wry faces and contortions, that the audience was convulsed with laughter. Taking the Veil wad the next tableau, also very | ins. And the new nun looked charming; in fact, as rf nun she was none. Norma was re-enacted at the general request of I those who had not witnessed it the first time. Tho beautiful Misa P. looked up most beseechingly at | the relentless Norma, and sang the "Hear me, Norma," as no other cantatrice in this city could | equal. This was a rare treat. The Fair is much indebted to the indefatigable labors of this young lady for a large measure of its success. Mrs. CHAP?N 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 close, and wait till to-night. PBOVOST COUBT, May 29.-United States vs. ED WABO WELSH, white, and William Gadsden, color? ed-Fighting in street.-Sergeant NEWNAN, of the city police, sworn, stated that last evening about a quarter to 8 o'clock, saw a large crowd in King street, got through them, and fonnd defendants clenched and fighting: the colored boy with a strap making a noise and disturbance, with a very large crowd around him. Fined $5 eacb, or be - imprisoned for six days. United States vs. Adam Deas, colored-Sweep? ing chimney without license.-Sergoant NEWNAN, police, sworn, Bays he found defendant in the street without an agent or license, contrary to the city ordinance. He could show neither; arrested bim according to a standing order of the contractor. Fined $5, or be imprisoned for three days. United States vs. J. AHSENS, white-Selling liquor to a soldier.-ALFRED FASSETTE, sworn, said: I am a musician in the 6th U. S. L On the 23d inst. I and another soldier went into the store at corner King-street and Smith's Lane, and asked if we could have any liquor. We were told to go . ' to the back-room, and he would send it there. He sent a man in with a soda water bottle full of whiskey, for which he charged ns fifty cents, and I paid him for it. 1 he defendant hero is the same man. He was behind the counter. We were both in uniform. I called for the liquor and paid for it. Found guilty, and sentenced to pay $100 fine. There were somo other cases, of very little in? terest, however. OUR Savannah contemporaries describe, with considerable enthusiasm, an excursion they had on Saturday last, to Thunderbolt, and a yacht race. We copy from the Iiepublican : The two contestants, the Minnie and the Jane L., with their respective backers and friends, at the appointed hour weighed nnchor, and were off. The J+ne %. leading the Minnie and running free; kopt the lead for some time. The wind was fresh and fair on the going out stre tch, and tho Jane L. shipped a good deal of water, which probably had some influence npon the result of th- race. Both boats were well managed, and by the time they turned the buoy, the Minnie led her antagonist I by some two hundred yards. Here the contest 'became very exciting. Evidently the game lay I with the Minnie, who, on the homestretch, proved /the closest sailer against the wind. She m ain? 't tained her lead throughout the home stretch, icoming in ahead forty-nine seconds, and the win? der of the purse. i Xht following is the time made by each vessel : Jane L., 54 min?tes; Minnie, 53 minutes and 14 seconds. We understand that there will be another race shortly, in which these two boats and five others will onter. - DKBOVB REVIEW for Jun? has arrived, prompt as usual, and pretty well filled with solid, not to say heavy, articles.

RAILROAD MEETING AT EDOEJTELD C. H.-The Augusta Chronicle <? Sentinel of yesterday says : "We are requested to advise our Edgefield friends that a railroad meeting will be held next Monday, June 4th, sale day, at the Court House. It is understood that the meeting will be addressed by Governor PICKERS, Governor BONHAM, Colonel JOHNSTON, and other distinguished .gentlemen.1 Tho object of the meeting is the consideration of thc necessity for a speedy completion of the Columbia and Augusta BaOroad. This road runs through Edgefield District fifty miles, and there are only two stockholders at present j from Edge field District. We hope our Edgefield fi iends will Bee the urgent necessity ?or a Speedy completion of this road. "The next fall promises a heavy immigration to the Mouth. The beautiful country which lies cou-, tiguous to the village and along the ridge, is just euch land which small farmers will want Heal? thy, well-watered, producing fine vegetables, ono of the finest fruit regions, being seldom injured by frost-growing peaches,, grapes, .apples, cur? rants, pears, cherries and plums. The soil is easily cultivated, brings good crops of cotton, Gorn and wheat. " But these lands are now cheap because inac? cessible. Tho completion of this road will greatly enhance their 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 "truck ten, the dwell? ers for several blocks in the vicinity were alarmed by a terrible crash in the church. Common re? port had it that the bell had fallen, as the clock was silent for the remainder of the night. Next morning revealed the extent of the damage. The rope holding the striking weight of the clock had I become old and worn, and the jar of striking the hour caused it gradually to loosen and give way, till at last it parted, and down came the heavy weight, crashing through the immediate floors and ceilings, and carrying everything before it, till its further progress was stopped by the solid stone floor of the vestibule. The weight consists of a large and heavy box filled with stones and Band. Fortunately the damage done was not ex? tensive. "It is providential that this accident occurred when it did, while no one was about the church. Had it happened thirty-six hours later, while per? sons were about entering the church, it would certainly have caused the IOBB of valuable lives. "The clock was taken down on Saturday for necessary repairs and cleaning. While the Trus? tees have the matter in band, we would respect? fully suggest that tho east dial is sadly in need of renovation." THE Editor of the Atlanta Christian Index pays the following touching tribute to a worthy lady, known to many persons in this city. It ls our pain lui duty to record tho fact that on Mon? day morning last, at 4 o'clock, Mrs. Mary Ann Brantly, wile of our much loved brother, the Bev. Wm. T. Brant ly, D. D., and daughter of that eminent saint, the late Br. Wm. H. Turpin, of Augusta, departed this life. We havo no language to express our grief. 8he was one of the dearest friends we over knew. Save those to whom we are bound by ties of common blood, none ever occu? pied a higher place in our esteem, or lu our affections, For macy years she had been like a sister, reciprocat? ing, weare happy to say, our warm regards ; and now that the has gone, we feel bereaved. Another heart-aohe has been added to a heart already sorely smitten, and more tears must come to eyes accustomod to shedding them. Our tenderest sympathies are excited for our afflicted brother in this hour of Ms calamity. He, too, is hound to us by no common ties. Fosty years sgo we were ochool-boys together, we grew up together, we went down into the water together, and were baptized on the same day, by hi<< father, the ever honored Brant? ly of former days-and in latter years the friendship of our youth h BB ripened into mellow maturity. We have rejoiced in the success which has run parallel with his lite, and now in his affliction we are afflicted. One com? mand we find it easy to obey-to " weep with them that weep." Mrs. Brantly was a most superior vornan. Amiable and elegant, accomplished and gifted, devout and honor? able, gentle and lovely, lt ls but seldom that human na? ture appears ia forms so attractive. And now she has angelic nature I We thank God for that assurance ; and if we have one loss friend on earth we have one more in heaven, and lt miy bu that as sore as thia temporary bereavement may seem, the ga'n is more than the loss to ns who remain, no less than to the blest spirit re? moved from our companionship to that of the angels aud of the Saviour. The Army of Northern Virginia. The concludiog paragraph in an article in the Crescent Monthly, entitled "General LEE and his Campaigns," by J. QDITUAN MOOSE, Esq.. is tho most grateful and touching triante to the gal? lant Army of Northern Virginia and its last and most renowned chief that wa have read: "There stood the mournful remnants of that once glorious army that had dipped its conquer? ing banners in the crimson tide of eight and twen? ty sanguinary battles, and strewn its heroic slain from the feet of thc Pennsylvania mountains to the gates of its own capital city; that had given Manassas to Beauregard, and twined the fame of the Seven Pines' battle in the laurel wreath of Johnston; that had causad the waters of the She? nandoah eternally to murmur the fame of Stone? wall Jackson, arid stretching its right arm out to the diBtant West, hud planted victory on the drooping banners of Bragg; that had witnessed four gigantic campaigns, and tlirougn all their shifting sud tragic scenes, and under all diffi? culties and dangers, had remained steadfast and faithful to the last. And after having wit? nessed the rising of tho Southern constellation, aa it loomed up brightly on the horizon ol' war, pursuing to its splendid zenith tho fiery path of Mara, now beheld, not unmoved, its declining splendors going down in the gloom of eternal night. And he, its illustrious chiof, whose lofty plume was ever its rallying point in battle, and around whom its affections warmly clustered, now commended it for its past devotion, and bade it adieu forever. Slowlv and aadlv ho rode from that mournful fluid, and the causo that he fought for was beneath the foot of power. Few were the eyes that grew not moist at witness? ing that departure. It was tho agony nf a great cause finding expression in the sublime soul or its great defender. And though that causo bo doad, yet will its memory continue to live, and ever honored will be those illustrious names that sacri? ficed at its alt.irs. And on the scroll of fame no name among the list of eminent worthies will shine with a purer, serener, or moro resplendent light than that of Robert Edmund Lee. His famo is monumental. His name will be placed along? side those of the great captains of history-Marl? borough and ?axe, of Tilly and Eugene; and as long as the fame of the Southern struggle shall linger in tradition and so?g, will his memory be cherished by the descendants of the Southern races; while his character will stand up in the twilight of history like some grand old cathedral, lifting itself in imperishable beauty above aha ob jocts of earth, majestic in its vast proportions, awful in ita solemn state?ness, sufilime in its severe simplicity."
