Whl*bo ffound to contain several new fea?
tures. For the cheapest bale of cotton
grown on a farm of not less than ten
Lauds, a premium of fifty dollars is
offered, and on a farm of not less than
five, bauds twenty-five dollars. To the
exhibitor of tho largest-and nest variety of
field crop*, grdvkri by himself, a. premium
ot twenty dollars is offered. .Among the
apepiol. premiums wo observe that a prize
of $300 is offered for the boat steam plow
nuoooB&fully operated ono hour each day
daring the Fair. Let < our people go'
earnestly to work and, jrea?lvo to make
this Fair tho best tkaVfwe, have yet had.

The wave of liboniUom.'sweeping over
Europe has at lost touched tho foot of
the Gear's throne, and the imperial

the most important in BuBsia, and num?

arid had for a long, time excited . the
jealousy of the Czar; but ho has hereto?
fore hesitated in taking a stop in oppdsi
. Sion, involving such important conse?
quences. Its attitude recently assumed
BU opposition to the foreign policy pur
Bbed by the government,, was so hostile
and determined as to threaten the over?
throw of the .ministry, and as they rep?
resented 'the views of the Czar, he
boldly took the bull hy tho horns, by
suppressing the paper. 'This step has
produced - a wide-spread excitement
throughout Buasia, similar to what

Wno ABBKrnE "BOUBBONS ?"--Tho
New york Commercial Adv?rftser, parti
eau Republican sheet aa i? Ls, has been
moved 'to siudy the signal di the times,
and thinks that it discerns that the
nation has made up its mind to have a
reform in government, and not to bo.put
'off much longer vf ith mere talk about it.
In A spirit of some bitterness, it talks at
tko ruling wing in its own party with a
plainness of speech which is itself a sign
of the times. .Tho Advertiser naya:
"Thora are Bourbons in the Republican
ranks as weil as among the Democracy,'
and they need instruction in the art of
interpreting ' the signs of the times.
Failing m this, they must make'ap their
minds to fail altogether. Tho people
will have reforms, and tho party which,
shall back its professions by timely, deeds!
will carry ? tho day in the great conte?j?
now openings but.word3.alone will not
answer the purpose;' Tho progress of
politioal conversion is neoessariiy slow,
aud individual[, cases aro subjected to
keen saratioyy sdmetimesto ridicule, and
always to distrust;yet nq careful obsoiver
of the tendencies of., the day will deny
the existence or tho .vital force of tho now

GoTEitNMENT Ano PBOPIIB.-The New
York Tribune says there oau bo no snob
thing in this country as "a Btrong. go?
vernment and a weak people." Both
government and people, it says, must be
strong or weak together. To whioh the
.Savannah liepubii ca n adds: .
-"Did we not have, a strong govern?
ment and a weak people when tho au?
thorities at Washington compelled (no
matter how) the Northern States to vote
for negro.. suffrage, wbijh, nearly all of
them had just repudiated it, when pre?
sented as a distinct issue, at the polls,
and by immense majorities?
"Did we not'have a strong govern?
ment and a.weak.people when the South?
ern States were throttled and made to
voto for the fourteenth and fifteenth
amendments against their will and judg?
ment?.
' "Did wo not hayo a strong govornmont
and a: weak people when Congress, by its
mere; fiat, overthrew the established
governments in the Southern States and
erected mongrel governments to sait
itself, and in no wiso representing the
people?"

Several weeks ago I waa instructed by
President Hagood to iasuo a premiam
list. .">Before, doing! sp, I wrote to tho
Presidents or,vb.OYttrioua railroads iu tbo
State,, aaking what favors,; would be
given us int tho. tranportatiou of art?CICB
intended for the next fair. The Presi?
dent of tba Spartanbnrg and Union
Railroad replied: "All articles in fonded
fer tbs fair will bo transported both ?aya
on thia road free." The General Su?
perintendent of the Greenville und Co?
lumbia Railroad replied: "Fall rates will
be ohargod going to Colombia, but the
freight money, refunded on articles. re?
shipped by the original owner." The
President of Charlotte, Columbia and
Augusta Railroad replied: "Full rates
will be collected going, bat all articles
returned free; though this road will
adopt any system suggested by the other
roads of the State." Upon the receipt
of this letter, I wrote President John?
ston, enclosing the above extract from
General Superintendent Dodamead's
letter. I received no'reply, and hence
was forced to issue the premium lint
without croditing the Charlotte, Colom?
bia and Augusta Railroad with this
liberality. I am truly. glad he has
adopted the idea of the Superintendent
of the Greenville and Columbia Rail?
road. The President of the South Ca?
rolina .Railroad wrote me: "Wu will
trauaport aa usual, fall rates going, but
to return?i free." His attention ia re?
spectfully-called to the faot, that for the
past two years the South Carolina Rail?
road has charged our society nothing fdr
transportation 'either .way, ?nd I um
pleased" to say, that .in addition to this
liberality, the .pr?ptneBS, Kindness, and
courtesy of .the officials of that road
have boen vory marked towards the so?
ciety. ' ' . " '
Mr. Editor, thoughtless persons are
not', apt to opp reola to .the impositions
fracticed by-exhibitors upon railroads,
have known men to ship animals they
desired to sell, regardless, of the lair,
simply because .by saying they were for
exhibition, they would be transported
free. Others I've known to boy cotton,
ship it free, and. sell on arrival, not
oaring even to exhibit it. And tonB ol
phosphates have boon brought on the
South Carolina Railroad freo, when onlj
u sample v.na sufficient for. tba require?
ments of the premium list. Tho -above
conditions of transportation will obviate
a repetition of some of tbese imposi?
tions, whilo the conditions of exhibition
will meet the others; for at the next fail
no product of the seil can compete for t
premium unless exhibited by tho pro?
ducer.''Truly, D. WYATT AIKEN,
Secretary S. C. A, and M. Society.
WHAT ls A. DEM O UH AT?-This question
says the Puris True Kentuckian, was ud
dressed to a Democrat in a political con
vereation a fow days since by a "Reel
hot" Republican. "I would like ven
much to.bo what you call a good hones
Democrat. Bo kind onongb to tell nv.
what change I will have to undergo t<
becomo such, and how I will know tba
I nm changed." "Well," replied th
Democrat, "go to some ohioken-roont
and if you can pass it by without feel
ing an 'iodination to 'confiscate,' yoi
aro an honest Democrat; but if you can
not resiot the temptation to bag th
fowls, you aro a Radical still, and hav
not experienced a change." The ani
ious inquirer had,-?o more questious t
propon ud.
DOMB A?fIMAXS AND THE HEAT.^A eil

calling attention to the sufferings o

As a furthor means ot refreshment it i
recommended to throw water upon th

A locomotive for a narrow gauge rai!
road has recently been completed at tb
Baldwin Works in Philadelphia. It i
said to be the first of the kind eve
built in this country, but it is likely t
be followed by hundreds of others; at n
distant day, es the narfow gauge, J
likely to be adopted on most of the-ria]
roads where the travel and trafilo ur
comparatively light. The looomotiv
just finiohed is intended for the Denve
and Rio Grande Railroad. Its to ti
weight, in running order, is 25,30
pounds, of which 20,500 is carried o

four of them, of a diameter of fort
inches, being coupled as drivers, wit
tho one pair of leadiog wheels so a:
ranged as to enable the engine to ru

Bearcroft deserves honorable mention
as the author of ono of the happiest wit?
ticisms ever gotten oT at the bur. It
happened in this wiso: V young gentle?
man of good family hud married u woman
of the town, been deserted by his
friends, and almost ruined in fortune by
the extravagance of bis wife. At l ist, he
mustered courage to defend an action
for goods furnished bor at au enormous
price. Erskine was his counsel, and
made thu wifo's previous character a
ground pf appeal to the jury. He
praised the amiable feelings of the hus?
band, who had sought to restore bis wife
to the path of virtue, and inveighed
against her baso ingratitude, to which
the plaintiff had lent himself. "For her
he gave np his family and sacrificed all
his connexions." When Bearcroft came
to reply, he treated Erskine's enlogium
'of his client's virtue and the demerits of
his wife as mero burlesque. "My friend
reproaches bis client's wifo with forget?
fulness of the deed of gratitude whick sbe
owes to him; that for her he bad given
ap all bis connexions; but the balance of
obligation will be found on her side-for
bim she gave np all mankind."
The last fashionable mania that has
broken out in New York is one for busts.
All peoplo of oolobrity, living or doad,
must contribute to the gratification of
this want. The shop windows aro fall.
Every public square is being orowdod,
and no drawing-room is considered
furnished unless the stony head of paler
familias smiles down grimly apon his
family from a nicho in one of tho piers.
Of coorie the sculptors are delighted at
the increase of business, and ull little
great men welcome the furore as a pass?

better taste, would ho denied them.
DEATH FBOM OVEB-HEAT.-On last
Wednesduy, a colored woman, wife,.of
Fiucknoy Green, worked in the field
until near 12 o'olock M., when, feoliug
exhausted, abe went to the house, and,
lying down on the bed, asked one of the
children to hand her a drink of water,
but before itoould be brought fresh from
the spring she was so far exhausted that
she oould not drink it, and iu a few mo?
ments died.-llorry News. .
The great Bonnet Carre crevasse in thc
Mississippi River, which submerged the
Jackson Railroad and about 200 square
miles of territory, is 2,200 feet wide, but
the river is fulling rapidly, and by the

it. Tho railroad has been destroyed for
a distance of about fourteen miles, but
preparations aro being made to placo it

Tho perornp.tory mandamus issued by

that his indifference will end on that day
and that the justice which hus been do
long and so patiently awaited will not be
delayed any longer.

lu view of tho fact that the road from
England to her India possessions, rut
the Suez Gaual, might bo blocked either
by sand or some unfriendly power, the
former power ie encouraging the con?
struction of a railroad along the Eu?
phrates Valley. Parliament, has ap?
pointed a special committee to examiue
aud report on the subject. Leaving ou
the Syrian coast, it is proposed to ruu
tho road along tho Valley of the Eu
phratep, with its Elstern terminus at the
head of the Persian Gulf. Tho saving
of distance, compared with tho Red Seal
route, would be, in a straight line, 1,000
miles; and as vessels proceeding by way
of tho Red Sea havo to maka dolours of
500 miles and upwards duriDg tho mon?

The Ninevah slabs ut Amherst College
have dually been deciphered by ono of

college, and have been an object of groat
interest to explorers of the mysterious
depths of history for many years. The
translation which is now suggested will
be eagerly awaited and closely criticised,
for these ancient characters probably
bear within their bosom the unraveling
of many Biblical statements that now
seem incredible.
