IVhu and What We Saw. ?fcc-.-??>.,
On Thursday morning last, as the first
rays of old Sol should have been seen over
t ie tree tops, but were not. on account of
i.\s being very cloudy, we. in company with
other pleasure seekers, embarked on board
C rpt. Blodget's tram rn route to Columbia.
At every cross-road, station, pump, wood
yarl and by way, our well laden train was
stopped and more passengers g<?t aboard.'and
by the time we had arrived at Columbia,
there was scarcely standing room. Arrived
there, we could with difficulty find vehicles
t carry us up into the city, all of them being
engaged in transporting passengers to
the Fair (jrounds. As we rode up Main
street, familiar faces and smiles greeted us
on every side, and we drew up before the
Columbia Hotel in great style, but surrounded
by mud ou every side to the depth of
...
aDJUt six inches. Having repaired damages
and visited Pollock's for the purpose of
refreshing the inner man, we. wended our
way to the Fair. Py this time, th e clouds
hudopened. and the rain pouredafter that peculiar
fashion which it has when determined
to give the earth a long and thorough drenching.
What with the innumerable vehicles,
from the heavy omnibus to the trotting
sulky, and'foot passengers, the walks presented
an -ungainly appearance, aud caused
many fair yoi ng ladies to execute involuntary
two military manceuveres, lo-wit:
dresses up in front and '-closes" up behindHaving
reached the exhibition, we procured
a ticket and went to the pine J, where wo saw
every tiling on. earth to piease.- the eye of
every man, woman aud child, but we were
especially gratified by the display ofbeautiful
ladies who promenaded the different apartments
and varied with the ever changing but
always beautiful colors of the kaleidoscope.
TIIE AGRICULTURAL DEPARTMENT
was the first we encountered upon entering.
Here were beautiful fruit trees, potatoes from
8 lbs. down, beots, cabbages, turnips, and in
short, evcrv varinlv tiirpionlfm-ul
J J v....p..VWUM4m J/IUUUVIO. J
Iii the same room, were beautifully bouni ,
books, containin*r irtliousand pages from the
mnnufacUry of Walker, Evans & Cogswell, i
Charleston, S. C. Tntuiug to the left we |
encountered a rustic gr ?tto. built with rocks,
over which a stream of water fell into a pool
where 6oated and swam souie beautiful ducks,
the greehead. milliard and other varieties.
TIIE MECUA.MC.VL DEPARTMENT
contained a handsome display of carriages
w here sat love smitten swains taking an imaginary
drive with their Dulcincas, who were J
at their side. Next came the machinery, j
among which we notice A a gin made by Mr. J
ii< J. McCre:ght, of this town, which was
doing splendidly. It will probably be awarded
a premium. Cotton gins and presses
were doing their very best, and their proprietors
evidently felt that noble emulation
which spurred them on to do all that they
could.
TIIE LADIES* BAZAAR.
Turning again to the left, we ascended a
stairway which ushered us into the ladies'
\ ? IV- it. T CV /* .1 "*? 1
u;i?a;ir lor itie ueueut or ilie .Uoiiuuientdl j
Association. Here a perfectly dazzling scone
met our gaze. Troops of beautiful 'young
ladies, becomingly dressed, insinuated themselves
into our good graces, aud before we
know what we were about, we and our party
were quietly seated at tables, discussing
palatable edibles with an appetite apparently
insatiate. The manner in which those ladies
managed to do .what they pleased with a
fellow, was something wond rful. Giftcdr
apparently, with prescience, they pounced
do vn upon the luckless (or lucky) wiglifc,
an l in two minutes and a quarter, he fouud
himself being waited upon with tender assiduity
by one of the fairest of earthly angels,
who when he had concluded his repast, with
a business like air took his greenbacks, with
a hriclit smile, and he cot tin nerfeetlv siitis
fied. Of course, under the circumstances,
the ladies could not remember everything,
and hence tbey frequently forgot to give
one his change, or when asked about it had
already' buried him in oblivion. However,
no one was mean enough to demand it, aud
the dear creatures went on in their work of
!ov \
Leaving this scene of enchantment, we
next came to
THE SEWINO MACHINES. -?.?l
There were about a dozen of these'upon
which the operators were sewing away very industriously,
makingagreeable accompaniment
to the'murmur of the huncreds of voices of
passers-by. lieautifal carpets filled the gap
between this and the
DEPARTMENT OF ART AND MUSIC.
Here were some beautiful portraits and
phutogrpahs from the house of Wearn & Hix,
Columbia. Among them oue of Gen. M. C.
Hutlcr. especially deserving of notice.
Lybrand & Son displayed some beautiful
pianos and organs, and we here had the
pleasure of hearing the great musician, Mr.
Joseph H. Heuck. Passing on, we came to
the
DEPARTMENT OF FANCY WORK.
Here our attention was cng ossed by the
very handsome display of needle work, with
which the tables were spread. Every variety
of work was here, from the great coni'
forter to the infant's sack, some beautifully
trimmed1, and" embroidered, fin possible castles
of cakes, shells and candies, all sorts of
tempting preserves and sweetmeats filled the
tables on every side, and we felt as if we
would like to belong to the "taatfng committee."
This finished the interior display, except
the portable iias (lenerator. which perform
- ' ? V
most elegantly, and emitted a very brilliant
and soft light. They are manufactured at
Columbia andi have voce ntly taken a prize at
the fair iu New York.
OUTSIDE.
Here were pons ibr the animals, stables
for the horses. corps for tlie poultry, shows
and swindles for the greenics, and a very
handsome display of agricultural implements
and portable steam engines, the latter busiI
ly engaged in working the gins inside the
j building. Inside tlie show, wccc real In!
duns. dancing a most ugly^ar dance, and
torturing the air and'ear witli their uncouth
yells, keeping time to the music furnished
by a drum beaten by an old and rheumatic
i Indian; who looked as if he was about
' to. turn into or was a resurrected, mummy.
I Ilcre -also, a man eat a bale of cotton an8 a1
; box of tobacco, and drew out ribbons to an
, endless extent, swallowed knives, stuck a
. knife through his arm, and did many other
j tricks too numerous to mention.
The display of live ptock was not very Giio
| this year, owing 110 doubt to the troubles in
: the up-country, but there were some very fine
j specimens of hogs and poultry:
On Thursday night we knocked about the
n 1 V !_ T T . * a.'\ _1 i 1 t) ^??l_ !..
VAuumuia iioioi unui auoui i- u ciock, in
the vain expectation o? getting a place to
sleep, but failing there, we and our friend
and fellow, townsman, Dr. M., sallied forth
to find a resting place. We hired a carriage
to carry us down to the National, where we
were informed that there was no place open,
and having to start back, we endeavored to
j get the driver to take us back for a half
| dollar, bat he>refused'to do so, while confessing
that he had to go back anyhow. We
grew very economical, and determined to
walk back rather than submit, to bo dictated
to, besides being somewhat desperate anyhow.
We trudged back through mud ankle deep,
and finally about" 2 o'clock we found a place
on the floor at a boarding house, where wc
deposited ourselves for the night. About
4 o'clock, some early risers began to stir in
our room, and in trying to put on their wet
boots, made a stamping equal to so many
i r 'i' _l._ i i* i
nurses, wmcu 01 course awuKU us, anu u nuing
it vain fur us to try to sleep, we got up.
AVe felt very sorry for the floor, because it
was nit her soft, and we must have hurt its
feelings very much. Having breakfasted
and smoked a cigar while reading the papapers,
wo walked about until it was time to
go up to the Fair Grounds, when we went
up and witnessed a very arousing
BULL RACE
around the arena, in the course of which one
of the bulls becoming excited made a-dart
for the gate and leaped over it, bringing the
buggy against it with great force, breaking
it down. He kept on until he arrived at his
pen, where he stepped.
'JKJIE. R/iCES
were the great attraction that day, and con.
siderable money changed hands. A three
year old, owned by Col. Hacon, of Edgefield,
won the race against Jonce Hooper, and Mozart
won another against a horse to us unknowu
and apparently also, to fame. The
crowd was hot quite so large on Friday, although
the day was clear and bracing.?
Lovely ladies still swarmed the Grounds as
.before, and we found sufficient enjoyment in
looking at and conversing with them.
Oil Friday night that grim old warrior
Gen. Jabal A. Early spoke in the Baptist"
Church, to a large aud seloct audience. His
speech was frequently applauded and the
people delighted to do him honor. Immediately
after his speech, the survivors proceeded
to Agnewis Hall where a fine sapper
awaited them. After the cloth was removed
General Wade Hampton read the regular
toasts, which, were responded to by Generals
Chesnut, Kershaw, Kennedy, Early and others.
About 2 J o'clock we adjourned to the
Columbia where we threw our wearied form
upou a downy bed and were soon wrapt in
slumber.
ON SATURDAY
we made our purchases and transacted such
business as wo had. and a few minutes after
one o'clock found us on board and starting
for houie. Ilere again the Jugglers and Indians
were visible and many pleasure seekers
were also going home weary of pleasure, and
yet regret that their holiday was over.
Then tender farewells were exchanged and
many flames just kindled were doomed to expire
as suddenly. Owing to an accident on
the South Carolina lload?main line?we
were compelled to lie over for an hour art the
delightful city of Kingsville, but were soon
after in hot pursuit of the Wilmington and
^lanchaster passengor train which left just
before us. Arriving at Clarksou's, we heard
the
FRIGHTFUL REPORT
that a man had been killed by that train, but
upon passing the spot, found the supposed
deceased quietly sitting down somewhat con
fused, hut not dead, by a great deal. It appears
that he endeavored to catch the W &
M train whilst in motion, and was flung
down with considerable violence, causing
some severe contusions on the head, but not
very seriom. Although au hour behind time,
?
we made it up and arrived at Camden om
time, without any accident, the entire party
looking pretty well. The only thing which
remains to be told is, that during the first
thirty eight hours after our arrival, twenty
ono wore passed in sleep, and that although
the Fair was not as good as it was last year,
yet it was a decided success and was enjoyed
vastly by the numerous visitors who attended
it. " ^
For Che Journal.
Mr. Editor: Mtc arc pleased to see that
you frequently call attention to the working
ing of Waterec division, ixo. v, aons 01
Temperance. There arc few in this community
who do not know of its existence, and.
are willing to accord to its influence-a, moral
power in the suppression of the evil against
which it wars. More potent than the most
sanguine could have expected, much good
has been effected, for which we would thank.
God and take courage, but much m >ro remains
to be done. We have only advanced
to the outposts of the enemy's strong entrenchments;
the work is but in its infancy.
Many secretly believe, and like all enemies
of virtue and true Godliness, hope it is like
Jonah's gourd, which came up in a night
and perished in a night. The true and real
friends of the cause, desirous of giving stability
and solid strength, propose to introduce
a library of propcrand suitable books
and tracts, bearing more or less directly upon
the subject of Temperance, to imbue the
minds of the young, to fortify them against
tho insiduous arguments of opponents, and
give thorn some conception of the moral
grandeur of the cause of Love, Purity and
Fidelity. They feci that it is not sufficient
that thev be temperate in all thinjrs? but
th?it the-, members, and especially the
younS?, should employ their leisure hours in
mental discipline; to fit them for the active
duties of life, good, citizens, and we may
humbly add, active Clxristiun^. To accomplish
our purposes and purchase, the books
and tracts, a subscription has-- been taken
up in the Division, but wc ask tho co-operartion
of all well wishers of tho cause, to contribute
whatever they feel disposed, aud in.
| this we can appeal to the wives, mothers
and sisters, for whose indirect benefit the institution
labors, to aid us. To any who will
subscribe, give your names and money to

The Fat Man.
* It isn't every day wc encounter a sketch
so amusing as the one subjoined, and where 1
all parties seem to enjoy the joke with so .
good relish Let the reader peruse for him- ,
self: ' i
' Bridget," said a lady in tho city of Goth- 1
am one morning, as she was rcconnoitcring '
in the kitchen, "what a quantity of soap- .J
grease you have got here?we can get soap
for it, and we must exchange it f >r some.
Watch for the fat mail, and when he comes
along tell him 1 want to speak to him.
"Yes, uiusii," said Bridget.
All the morning. Bridget, between each
whisk of her dish-cloth kept a bright lookout
of the kitchm. window, and 110 moving
creature escaped her watchful gaze. At last
her industry seemed about to be rewarded,
fbr down the street cauie a large portly gentleman
flourishing a canc and looking in a
very good humor. Sure, and there's the fat
man now, thought Bridget; and when he
was in front of the house out she-flew and informed
him that her mistress wished to
speak to him.
' Speak to me, my good girl ?" replied the
gentleman.
"Yes, sir, she wants to spake to you, and
fAti Kn irnn/l Aitntitrll tfl ifl
o.ija "UUJU juu bw? o J I
sir." .J
This rc^cest, so direct, was not to be refused,
so in a state of wonderment, up the <
steps went the gentleman, and up the stairs 1
and up tlie stairs went Bridget, and knock- (
ing at the- door of her mistress, put her 1
head in and exclaimed, "Fat gentleman in <
the parlor, mum."
' So saying she instantly withdrew to tke :
lower regionSw
"In the parlor!" thought the lady, what
can it UiC.in ? Bridget must have blundered,
but down to the parlor she went, and up 1
rose her fat friend, with his blandest smile
and most graceful bow.
"Yourservant informed me, inadame that
you would like to speak to me?at your ser- .
vice; uiadum."
Tho mortified mistress eaw the state of the
case immediately, and a smile wreathed itself
about her lips in spite of herself, as she said:
"Will you pardon the terrible blunder of
a raw Irish girl, my dear sir? I told her to
call in the fat man to take away the soap
grease, when she saw him, ana she has made
a mistake as you now see.
The jolly fat gentleman leanedback in his 1
chair and laughed such a hearty ha 1 ha! lia!
as never came from one of your lean gentry.
"It is decidedly the best Joke of the seas- i
on. Hu! ha! ha ! so she took me for the
soap grease man, did she? It will keep me .
laughing fur a month. .Such a joke!"
And all the streets and around the corner
was heard the merry ha ! ha! ha! of the old
gentleman, as he brought down las cane, every
now aud then, and exclaimed, '"Such a ]
joke!"
Eminent Counsel foutiieKu Klux.? ]
The New York Herald of the 11th says:
The Haiti more American is advised that
lieverdy Johnson is to goto Columbia, S. C.,
to defend the Ku Klux prisoners to be tried 1
there at the November term of the United (
States Circuit" Court. Mr. Johnson is a 1
gentleman of eminent legal abilities, and
possesses profound knowledge of constitution- '
al law. In the conduct of these Ku Klux 1
cases no better man could have been selected.
This is a different matter from dining and
hob-nobbing with the nabobs of Great
Britain, and will afford Mr. Johnson ample J
opportunity to develop his talents as an (
advocate and as an expounder of^heconstitu- i
tion." 1

but that in those counties where sea island cotton
is grown, payment could not be made until
MarHi without sacrifice.
His Excellency, therefore, agreed to suspes/1.
the colli ction from those upon the seaboard until
that time, where they were unable to pay
sooner.
Persons desiring to avail themselves of the
hoiufiis of this promise will be required lo file a
pa^^on with tiie County Auditor previous to the
mnFVit which the penalty attaches, accompanied
by nfiidiivits that returns from crops hndnot been

than those mentioned will be granted. :
The collection of taxes for this fiscal year will
commence on the 20th instant, and continue un- :
