The Sttitc Fair and Fairs lu General,
?The Fair of tho State Agriqultural
-and Mechanical Society will ooma off on
the 9th, 10th and 11th of next Novem?
ber. The Esooutivo Committee have
offered an attractive premium Hst.
The buildings nu d tho groan cia oro to be
improved; -It is confidently anticipated
that the next State Fair will be a great
success, as respects both the visitors that
are expected and the nrtioles and stock
to be exhibited. Let all prepare to make
their contributions. The importance of
these industrial enterprises cannot be
easily exaggerated. Hence wo wish the
amplest success to our State Fair, ns
well as to the Charleston Fair, to be held
on November 1, 2, 3 and 4. It is by
material development that thc South is
to redeem its fortunes. It is not tho po?
litical trickster and domagogue that is to
work out our salvation; but it is the ar?
tisan and the planter whose energies aro
to restore this section ita power, in
/fluonco and dignity. Mr. Burwcll, the
>editor of JDeBow's lieview, is right when,
'v.n an article on "tho political philosophy
of Agricultural Fairs,'' he closes thus:
"What the politicians cannot do, the
.planters will achieve. What the con?
querors have not been able to effect, the
vmaohinist8 and manufacturers aro mak?
ing very successful. Industrial recon?
struction comprehends, and must pro
cede, political reconstruction. Uncon?
sciously, the interested agencies which
organize the fairs at which Northern and
Southern in toroa ts are kneaded together,
will'Bolve the problem of reconstruction,
and' we shall be again one people, not
merely homogeneous, but reciprocal in
all our material interests."
Let our Agricultural and Mechanical
Fairs, then, State and local, receivo full
attention. They make power. They
bring distant communities together.
They diffuse those ideas that go to
secure the independence and dignity of
the Sooth.
The inflamed passions of tho times,
which have kindled into a blazo upon
the banks of the Rhino, aro not to turn
awuy with the settlement of that contest
alone. All neighboring countries, says
the New Orleans Times, appear to have
-caught the infection. lu Spain thc revo?
lutionists are on the verge of an out?
break, and a republic is almost inevita?
ble. Italy is preparing to realize her
dreams of conquest, in marching upon
Borne. Austria stands armed and ready,
?eagerly awaiting a pretoxt to pluugo iuto
the conflict. Russia is moving her
troops and gathering strength for tho
time she imagines imminent, when the
shattered armies of now contending na?
tionalities are all to go down before her
victorious hosts. Evon io England,
among the people, wo Hud the same in
fectious fury rampant, and for tho first
time in a reign of thirty-three years
their, till now, beloved sovereign, has
been publicly hissed iu the streets of
London. Are we to behove, as the
liberalisU of the day aro foud of assert?
ing, that this is all owing to the spread
of Republican doctrines? Wo fear not;
there is too much violence; too much
disregard for tho rights of others; too
muoh hot blood, with its hatred of race,
caste and condition, to warrant such a
claim. Republics born in tumult are
invariably short lived; to bo enduring
they must rise upon sounder and surer
foundations, carefully laid, without basto
or passion. The present whirlwind of
revolution sweeping throughout Europe
is but the preceding storm of coming
republicanism, which is to sweep away
tho old ideas and traditions, without
which the new plant cannot flourish
vigorously. Its halcyon days aro not
yet; when monarchy dies, it will die
hard. The republics now struggling
into existence amid such tempestuous
scenes will only prove bantlings at best,
the prey of the first strong audacious
arms striviog to assail their liberties.
In these mighty throes and convulsions
Of civilization, a thirst fur chango and
progress ?B plainly to bc traced. Tho
germ is there ripening; let us hope it
will be developed yet witbiu tho nine?
teenth century in a glorious tree of lib?
erty, beneath whoso shelter tho nations
of the world can gather together in unity
of thought and purpose, in long pros?
perity and peace.

MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE.-A mau
named George W. Bennett, supposed to
be a native of Connecticut, but who for
nome months past has been liviug with
his wife in Augusta, mysteriously disap?
peared from that city last Friday. It
appears that for some timo past his
wife's mother, residing in Newberry
County, S. C., hos been treating, through
Bennett, with Col. T. E. Beuhler, real
estate agent, for tho purchase of a place
near Augusta. Sho remitted by express
?580 with which to closo tho trado. Ben?
nett obtained tho mouey from tho ex?
press office, aud left his room between J
and 5 o'clock Friday afternoon, ostensi?
bly to purchase the property desired by
Mrs. Morgan.

cities have fallen.
REV. J. B. COTTRELL.-In tho Union
Springs Times, we find the following
referonco to the Rev. J. B. Cottrell.
Mr. C. is from Spartanbnrg, in this
State, graduated at the Citadel Academy,
and is now a Methodist preacher in Ala?
bama. Tho occasion reforred to was a
meeting of the Democrat and Conserva?
tive Club in Bullock County, Alabama,
held to ratify the recent Democrat and
Conservative ticket, nominated for
Govornor and other State officers. Tho
Times says :
Among the number of good speeches
mude during the meeting, was one hy
tho Rov. Jos. B. Cottrell, who was re?
peatedly called on, but persistently de?
clined speaking, until at length towards
the closo of tho meeting, the demnud
from tho audience seemed imperative,
ho then reluctantly came forward, aud
in attempting to decline and keep out of
a speech, he finally drifted into ouo.
His speech waa truly a soul-stirring,
rousing effort. Tt was characteristic of
tho Christian gentleman-tho pious
minister, who, detesting iniquity in all
its phases, unhesitatingly lays it bare,
whether found in tho folds of thc church
uuder the guiso of religion, or in the
political enmp, bearing the standard^on
which is hypocritically inscribed "uui
versal amnesty and tho removal of all
political disabilities." His keen sarcasm
upon the psuedo statesmen and patriots
of this ago and country, was withering
in tho extreme. He surveyed with tell?
ing effect tho political dimensions of
Alabama's giant law-givers, (?) and be?
fore ho hail finished with them, they
appeared in their true light, as but
mental pigmies fat with tho spoils of
ofiice.
Mr. Cottrell was frequently inter?
rupted with loud aud prolonged applause.
Somo parlies present said if money
would bo any inducement, he should
havo a handsome purse to take the
stump, and follow up tho radical oilieo
seekers in this Congressional District.
Of course Mr. Cottrell could not, for
consid?ration, ba induced to take tho
stump; for, as he says, ho has a calling
infinitely higher than anything in the
gift of tlio people, und no political pre?
ferment would bo a temptation to him.
Ho is at heart, wo believe, averse to po?
litical discussions; yet when corruption
and iguorauoo hold such continual sway
in our Stat? Government, ho caunot,
when called upon by his fellow-citizens,
refrain from exposing it-yea, holding
uush up to tho righteous iudiguation of
au aggrieved people.
Near Sherman, Texas, on Monday
oveuing of last week, a Misa Bounds,
aged about eleven years, was riding on a
reaper with her brother, when the mules
became frightened and ran away, throw?
ing Miss Bounds off, and her clothes
becoming entangled in tho driving
wheel, abe was drawn into tho machinery
aud literally cut to pieces, killiug her
almost instantly.
Do not bo troubled because you have
no great virtues. God made a million
spears of grass whero ho made one tree.
Tho earth is fringed and carpeted, not
with forests, but with grasses. Only

mon fidelities, and you need not monro
becauso you are neither u hero or :i
saint.
GENEN AL RIPLEY AMONO THU DEFEND
EUS OF PAULS.-Tho following paragraph
comes among tho latest cabio telegrams
from beleaguered Paris: "Gen. Ripley,
of tho Confederate army, and two artil?
lery officers of tho United States arm j
during thu war, havo a commaud mulei
Trocho. Many Americans have volun?

A Treatise oh tho Pr?paration ond Deli?
very of Sermons? by Ber. JOHN A.
Bacu^DV?i *D. D., LL.D., Professor
in the Southern Baptist Theological
Semmary, Greouvillo, S. O. Smith,
.English, jfe Oo., Philadelphia.
Xet no one refrain from purchasing
this book under the idea that it ls a mere
text book, or is useful to students of
only sacred rhetoric. It is one of the
most readable and interesting treatises
on tho. art of oratory ever written. Tho
wholo literature of the subject, in the
best writers, ancient and modern, is re?
viewed. Every one who hus to speak to
others, or desires information on this
subject, or who would BO cultivato his
tasto as to hear, with appreciation,
proaching or any other public speaking,
will find this book eminently useful. It
is so charmingly wiitten ns to forco a
continued perusal wheu ouco taken np,
and so full of valuable suggestions that
ono will feel inclined to recur to it again
nod again. This will bo especially true
of public speakers for whom-as contra?
distinguished from writers-it is especi?
ally written. In this it differs from
other books of rhetoric, which fail to
distinguish bctweon tho art of writing
and that of speakiug, except so far as
more utterances or oratory is involved.
Ho who studies this book will soe in how
many other respects differences may be
traced, and such, too, as it is well for
every speaker to kuow and appreciate.
Tho author is well known to have com?
bined several qualifications for his work.
Not only is bia reputation well establish?
ed as ono of the best scholars and most
successful preachers of the day, but from
his lecturo rooms in tho Seminary has
como tho report that his greatost excel?
lence is an instructor. Upon tho sub?
ject on which ho has written he hus
taught for ten years largo clauses of pu?
pils. Tho publication a year ago, there?
fore, that this work was in preparation,
excited no little expectation. We feel
warranted in Baying that this expectation
has been fully mot. Wo cordially com?
mend tho book to all publia speakers,
but especially to ministers, and moro es?
pecially to all those who aro at t ho begin?
ning of their ministry. Surely all such
should be anxious to know how to speak
effectively. And here is an able treatise,
by one well qualified to treat tho subject;
and by one who evidoutly believes that
much more is gained in this direction by
work aud study than is generally sup?
posed. B.
Nearly eighty years of French history

STTFFEWN? IN PAnis.-Meagre as are
the telegrama from Paris, they suggest a
terrible picture of suffering among the
poorer classes in that once gay, and
luxurious oity. /' Tho thousands of small
shop-keepers, wh? art accustomed to
live from hand to m oath by tho profits
of their daily trade, must bo entirely
ruined; whilo the meohanios, who
or?ate the varions articles thoy deal in,
are likewise thrown out of employment.
Tho tbreatres aro closed, and that again
tnrns adrift a multitude of workmen;
the gas works aro stopped, which bas
the samo effect in another direction.
Add to this that provisions aro becoming
daily scarcer and dearer, and wo can
readily seo that tho horrors of a siego
havo begun to bo experiouccd. No
wonder that all who can aro fleeing to
safer quarters; for, should resistance be
prolonged, tho miseries of a famine, of
both food and drink, and fuel, will have
to be endured by thoso who remain.
An ugly rumor is whispered at Wash?
ington that tho famous Red Cloud mis?
sion was, after all, a little coup de theatre,
gottou np by tholndiau ring for the pur?
pose of re-establishing tho Laruinio
traders. It is said tho visiting warriors
were heavily bribed und instructed to ask
the Great Father to appoiut them three
interpreters. Of courso their wish was
complied with, aud|a blissful pcaco spread
over thc warlike plaina, whilo Indian
swindling nourishes at Laramie in the
most approved style. In view of tho
greater security of frontier life, this does
not mako any great difference, but the
ugly suspicion will intrude itself that
parties, shrewd and unprincipled enough
to thus impose upou tho country, would
not hesitate to stir up a preliminary In
diau war, with all its horrible concomi?
tants, whenever it may chime in with
their interests.

bound copy of tho "Trans-ContinentaC
a little newspaper published on tho
Pullman Excursion trnin, between Bos?
ton nnd San Francisco, couveying tho
members of tho Boston Board of Trade
and several invited guests. It is cer?
tainly very neatly printed, and when the
circumstances under which the numbers
were issued, are taken into considera?
tion, tho fact will bo regarded-as it
really is-something wonderful. Tho
preparation of the matter, the type-set?
ting and printing were all done whilo
tho train was running at au average rate
of forty miles an hour. The running
time between Albany and Niagara Falls
-304 miles-was eight hours and twenty
six minutes. During one portion of tho
run on the Grand Trunk (Cauada) Bail
road, the time made was tweuty-threo
miles in twenty-four minutes. The
Trans continental contains general news
matter, telegrams, editorial comments
on tho trip, etc. As the train rau far I
ahead of tho regular mail, persons desir?
ing to communicate were forced to use
tho telegraph. Tho different numbers
of the paper are dated from Niagara
