The Atlanta Constitution, referring to the Georgia State Fair, says: "The great contest of the Boue fair has been that between (he girls igr u ouokiog stovo as a premium for the best dinuer. The result of the contest bus been looked to with eager interest, and the awards wore delivered amid rousing ex oitemont. The best Cook among these oontending obarmers was decided to be Miss HattieJ. Johnson, to whom was awarded the first premium in the shape of tiie John B. Gordon cooking stove. To Miss Octavia Shropshire was giveu the sejQond premium. This second premium was the It. ?. Leo stove, offered by Messra. Seay & Walker. Tbu committee found it hard to decide. They recommended that twenty dollars be given to Miss Alice Camp, a twelve year-old girl, for the very excellent diL ner she concocted. They also recom? mend ten dollars to Miss E. J. Shrop? shire. The awarding of the premiums was very exciting." ' "Poor Henry" is now said to have speculated largely in Confederate bunds wbeu thoy were first issued, about the time of the first Mapa.-sas. Tbu aspect of the struggle changing a little, be sold out. He is said to have contributed 82.50 to the benefit of a young Cou federato in a Northern prison, the son of a former acquaintance; Stewart, the millionaire merchant, for the sumo rea? son sending ?5, acoompauied with the severest rcprimaud. Aud i^nv, after making a great deul out of the Federal Government, of which ho was u pet, "Poor Henry" wiuds up with $200,000 of the Government mouey in his posses? sion. Far be it from us to damage the broken banker pecuuiuiily. We have stated, we suppose, what will rather commeud him to the "truly loil," und it should not bo surprising if some of them were to assist bun out of difficulty for the reason that be was so bitter against the Confederacy?particularly alter ho failed to mako money out of it. He thus gave proof of his hatred that none could question. No wonder be bated the South. Tuesday, October 14, elections will be held iu the States of Pennsylvania, Ohio and Iowa. Pennsylvania will choose a State Treasurer und a Supremo Court Judge; Ohio a Governor aud other State officers, and Iowa a Govern? or, other State officers and a Legislature. In Iowa the issue is distinctly made be? tween tho farmers' candidate aud the regular Bepublicaus. A Pair or Roughs Insult tub Pre? sident.?Two roughs who, while par? tially drunk, called out to President Graut in a rude and boisterous manner as ho was riding to church Sunday, with his family, wero arrested and taken to tho Central guard house, und this morning were fined by the police court 85, on a charge of loud and boisterous conduct ou the street . Destructive Finn ?The wool card? ing machinery and buildings, at the tanynrd of Messrs. Pickle & Wilson, in tho village of Williamston, in Anderson Couutj', wero consumed by lire on last Tuesday morning. This is a heavy loss, both to the owners aud the community iu which it was situated. About thirty five bauds engaged in the car building department of the Central Railroad, in Savannah, wero discharged Tuesday. They had just completed the work of building 100 cars. The Court of Appeals of Now York has reversed tho decisions of tho lower no mts in the West field cases, in whioh the plaintiffs were awarded damages for yvouuds received by the explosion of that steamboat two years- ugo. Colored Fair Ground.?The colored j people of Abbeville have purchased some five acres of laud iu the neighbor hood of the depot from Dr. .1. W. \V. j Marshall, as a fair ground. This is a step iu tho path of progress. Some of the newspapers talk about "a great Republican victory in Dela? ware," just as if they didn't know that the number of voters in that State is so niiall that neither party ever had euough to claim a majority. Gideon Loug, charged with the mur? der of it negro named Zero Ezell, near Jouesvilie, on tbu Olli of May last, by cutting his throat, was tried at Union Court House last week, aud acquitted, Col.

These claims were for damages from acts of either Government between April, 1861, and April, 1865, other than those known as the Alabama claims. They ranged from loss of clothes in Gen. Sherman's march to $15.000,000 for a quicksilver mine in Santa Clara, CiL, und included losses by the Legal Tender Act, by oontiscatiou of vessels, destruction of property by Union and rebel troops, for unlawful arrests, for claims on Confederate bonds, &o. Of the British claims, 181 have been adju? dicated iu favor of the claimants, and the amount allowed upon them is $1,920,819. Iu very few instances, bow ever, bus u chum been allowed to its full amount. By far the greater portion of the 181 which have seoured a favorable decision, have been reduced to an insig nincuut fraction of what was set forth in I the papers that were filed by the claim? ants. 297 have been wholly rejected. I Ou the other hand, only uineteeu claims of all kinds have beeu brought beforo the Commission by citizeus of the United Slates agaiust thu British Uu verumeut. They were for losses aus Uiued by tbe St. Albans raid, by tbe capture of a vessel on Lake Erie, by the deteutiou of cargoes of saltpetre at Calcutta, Ac.

There is only one thing I regret! this evening, and that is boing called to tho chair, because my abilities will fall far short of doing justice to Mr. Saegors.

Messrs. Harry and Chris, thanked all for tho kind manner in which they had drunk to their healths.
