The tax for pa;u eit'ofin'tercst Is levied

From an estimate of taxable property of >
the State, valuing the sahib rrt one hnndred 1

mills throughout the Jtate, which is a just 4
assessment, ihe amount raised, unless there |
be a large Sefault in payment, wijl not less <
than from two and a half to three millions '
of dollars '
We seo from our Cojunibia exchanges that
Judge Melton has granted an injunction re training
tho County Treasurers and State ,
Treasurer from paying out the money ob- ]
tained from tho levy, and an effort will be ]
made to make the injunction perpetual on 1
the 2Jst* inaf. We do not know What this 1

will amount to. - . ,
Judge Melton has also granted an injunc- ,
tion restraining Xeagle from levying the ;

Tke fourth Annual Fair of the South-Carolina i
Agricultural and Mechanical Association met, I
according to appointment, at Columbia, begin- I
ning on Monday, November 4th, continuing 1
through to the 8th. The entries for exhibition i
were, as regards quantity, inferior to those of i
previous years, but as to quality, were second i
to none. The attendance was large and nppre- !
ciative, and the interest unabated to the last. On <
Wednesday, the third day, it. was asserted, it is t
inferred authentically, that n greater number
of admission tiohotaworo sold than on any other

organization ui ^uo ...? ?_
Early onWednesday, the great day of the-Fair
the building and grounds were the scene of 1
c ltansomcly attired ladies and. gontloaaon, end- 1
less varieties of equipages, banners of sundry 1
colors, and representntions^an^ Btnlls of every 1
kind of fruits and delicacies; and the United '
States Brass Band, sending forth.strains of do- '
lightful melody, witlrftie assembling'crowds gave J
the Fair GroUnds ari attraction irrcstihltJ "in its
J
intesity.
Very many beautiful horses adorned the cir- ,
cl?y around -which Beats of various elevations t
nmphitheatdMike, their nttuttil vivacity and (
gracefulness being greatly increased by the ,
quick, loud strtin^cnaauating from the band, on (
an elevated stand in the centre of the circle. j
The entries of Swine were very small in num- j
ber, as were thoep of Sheep and Goats. A choice
selection of Bulls, Cajves and <j>\vs, of rare size t
and beauty, were entered, and gained a well l
merited admiration, while in the x;ear of the 1
building were ooops of Jowls of- uncommon 1
breeds and size. Westward of thebuilding were (
two Steam Engines, with all the modern improve- 1
ments and conveniences, which kept constantly, s
at work several cotton-gins in the interior of the I
house. t -i' ' * ?
The number, variety and "quality of Agricul- *
ral and Labor-saving Implements were conspic- j
uous, and were well calculated to prove to the
sceptic, the growing enterprise* of America. r"
Several plow-matches enlivened the scene on
Wednesday, and doubtlessly convinced all of j
the superiority ofthe.nfewly invented plowB. <
The firststory of the building was assignedlo .
Country Produce of various kinds, and to Hardware,
Carriages, Cotton Gins, &c. In tho cen- |
tre of the second story, many handsome Car- f
pets, Rugs, &c., bore upon them the names of |
Shiver and Lore, the leading Dry Goods Mer- i
chants of Columbia. Further eastward, came \
the show-cases of magnificent Jewelry, and next t
in ardcr ecmo the Fancy Work and Confection- i
ery department.. Many Paintings, by public i
and private artists, delighted those of cultivated
taste. Upon the wall were placed in order, 1
upop a card, many Fossils, from Charleston, in 1
the form of teeth. The Sewing Machine de- '
partment was the Bcene of constant operation, ^
and many ^handsome varieties of the Singer, *
Wheeler & Wilson, and Howe persuasions were *
exhibited. . ~ 1
The chief centre of attraction was the "Res. (
iaurant of the Monument Association of ..South t
Carolina, occupying the western wing of the (
seoond story "of the building. Many of the fair (
served out choice refreshments to the assembled ]
State. As the object of the Asspoi&tion is suf- (
ficiently well known to our people, comment as to
its purpose is unnecessary. .The young men
' J - ' ? ? ?' vininit 1 n rli o? I
were attracusu oy me un?jr ?i /w?s --- ??
-while old, middle-aged and young alike, gave <
willing patronage'to the many palatable eatables 1
offered forsalo. '*" M * J
The stand at the Race Cpurse was crowded c
* daring race hoars, and fflatiy saddle races and 1
trotting matches were gotten up. Several ped- |
lars, by dint of constant vociferation, kept
around them a large crowd, composed for tho ^
most part, of tho*e of the sombre persuasion, and j.
no doubt sold a' considerable quantity ;of their- E
wares. l* :'""J 'j
Sundry private exhibitions drew around them b
many of the curious, doubtlessly attracted, as p
much by the brilliant display of banners, and "
the declarations df Ihtfi respective 4 proprietors, 1
as by th^ desire to eeel . Around oho of these- it
lew, to behold the feat of wire-walking, per-j
ormed by an expert of the fair sex, vho crossed
rorn one point to another, and returned blindoldcd.
The spokesman of the enterprise ipo- >
itcly informed the assembled multitude that tho
iccnstomed usage of gathering compensation;
rould be dispensed with, suggesting, at the!;
lame time, the propriety of rewarding highly^
jcrfected skill, or as lie had it, "of paying reipccts
to the lady," by purchasing tickets ofadnissicm
into sundry exhibitions, of vrtifdh the'
air walker was proprietress.
LA*iotk*r of These institution*!, known in tire
rulgar tongue as tidt-skotcx, advertised to show
her l&Tgest married couple in the world, nfeasurng
nearly eight fcetin height, and another still,
jossessedft man, who under the denomination
>f Fire-King, performed wonderful feats with
ire. Another offered, for a small'sum, to show
he largest boy and girl in Christendom. There
s nothing remarkable about these shows, save
he extravagant style in which their exhibitions
ire described, and the host of sweeping asser'ions,
with which their banners were full.. ,
There wore, it is asserted, inroads made upon
lie pockets of several, doubtless tlie work of
pick-pockcte, who, seizing the advantagtwof the
confusion attendant upon such an aggregation of
ill kinds of people, invaded the fair-grounds for
purposes of depredation. We beg pardon for
he presentation of a suggestion just here which
s, that the attention of the South Carolina Agricultural
and Mechanical Association might be
urned to advantage, to the suppression of the
rarious gambling enterprises with which the
fair-grounds were full. CadAot this|bc attended
:o, in consideration of the uhialutary effect cxirted
over our otherwise demoralized people.
Statesmen spend long years of labor to the end
ihat demoralization may be ferrettcd frotii it's
lurking places in the minds of their people, and
shall a Fair Association, in an official capacity,
lo anything to increase it ? Cannot race matches
be gotten up and run at any other times and
places? Cannot these private gambling enterprises
be kept from the fair-grounds ? Cannot
cur Fair be a moral Fair ? Why let public and
private corruption stare us in the face, white attending
?tho Fair? We ore confident that pur
rempernnce brethren will agree with us in the
zstertion that it is an insult to the Fair-going
people, an insult to our motherB, and wives, nnd
sisters, who go tc the Fair, that liquor-dealers
ire permitted to locate for the time, upon the
premises owned by the Fair Association. At
one time it was not allowed; but the reins of discipline
have been slackened.
The result of on altercation between themunicipalauthorities
of Columbia and the Fair Association
was the proposed removal of the place of
meeting to Charleston, but tho discordant parties
have come to terms highly advantageous to
the Fair Association, so the Fairs will still be
held at the State capital. Further description

Correspondence.
Washington, Nov. 16,1872.
Yesterday, Senator Cameron, Governorelect
Hartraft and about thirty of the most,
prominoot RepsbHcab politicians oF'Tennsylvania1,
called upon the President for the
purpose of securing the appointment of
George Truman as postmaster of Philadelphia.
Mayor Stolcely urged that the appointment
of Mr. Truman would contribute
largely toward keeping up the party in Pennjylvania.
He desired the President to set
isid? the civil service rules in this case on
iccount of the great good which would remit
from this selection. The President did
lot see it in the sahje light as the politicians
irid gave them to understand that their ro
}uest would not be acceded to. When the
i)arty left the white house, they, indulged in
mch profanity as was scarce equalled by the
' army in Flanders." One prominent among
,hc snubbed said that if the civil service
ule had been applied to Grant in the recent
dection, he would not have been promoted
o a second terni; which sentiment was gensrally
acquiesced in. There is more than
egard for the civil service rule in this refutal
of Grant to a request from the leading
xdkicians of a Slate which gave him 145,)00
majority. Simon Cameron declared
hat every Republican who opposed, the
dection of Hartranft, should be punishe^
tlight in the face of this John W. Forney
ias been taken into the President's confidence.
This was gall and wormwood to Cameron,
md this visit was to bring the President to an
ssue. It was to see whether Grant wquld
lare ignore the politicians of Pennsylvania,
ind slight their services.
On the occasion of the Forney banquet
ast summer, MriWm. B. Mann shook his
inger in Grant's l\ce and said, that no one,
ligh or low, could, with impunity, ignore the
vorking Republicans of Philadelphia; this
vas a hint at Grant for his hobnobbing with
;he Union League Swells, Childs, Boric
md Drexel, to the utter exclusion of the
vorking^ politicians.
Grant never forgets nor torgives. He
ias by this one stroke, under shadow of a
nost convenient rule, shown Cameron that
le will not be dictated to, even by the one
vho most assisted him to a lease of power,
ind at the same time, has returned the
hreat of Wm. B. Mann in defiance and.
vith interest. Mr. Mann was present yesterday,
and felt that he had lost at bis game
>f bullying. I look-upon the event of yeserday
as most significant, and from it will
late the gradual, though sure, dissolution of
he lladical party, which not even the colesive
power of public plunder, will hold
together.
THE VACANT MAJOR-GENERALSHIP.
The President has not indicated his preference
for any one yet to fill tho vacancy
lauflcd by the death of General Meado ?
Soward, of pious and Freedmen's notoriety..
Burnside, the politician, Terry, Canby and
rther Brigadiers, have been pressed for the
jlace, but it is claimed in army circles, csxicially
anibng the staff, that QuartermasterJeneral
Meigs will be selected He is pressed
by a "ring" who are interested in claims
o the extent of millious. which comnig before
lim, will be acted on adversely. Ilis promotion
will leave the Quartermastcr:.Generalhip
to be filled by the Prcsidont, who, will
io urged to overslaugh Gon. Allen, and apibintGen.
Rufus Ingall, one of the notorious
mess," and m great friend of Grant's,
'herewill be no trouble so far as Gem Allen
5 ooncerned, as be desires to be stationed on
kei Pacific coast wljere his pillions worth of <

The revival of our aln^ost^xtinct commerce
will be thorougly discussed this winter
in Congress, with a view of adopting
some general systein to that end. The measure
asking for government aid, to enable the
Australian Man steamsmp uompany to continue
its long lioc of stcamerato Australia
will introduce this subject. J This line of
iteamers has been'sustained by-$he indomitable
energy of Mr. W. H. Webb, of New
York, whose foresight and enterprise has
thus far prevented'the absorption,-of the immense
trade of Australia by England through
hor largely subsidized Oriental and Peninsular
Steamship company. W[e have already lost
the commerce of the Atlantic, and it were
frorse than criminal, in view ofpnr Pacific
railroad?the shortest route to 'the East?
that wc should permit the commerce of the
Pacific to slip from our grasp. "Every section
of the country is interested in our holding
this trade, on account of the new markets
that it opens for our products and manufactures.
Whether^Congress adopts a general
plan of subsidies, similar to -that which
has placed England at the head of the commercial,
nations of the world, or not, the
friends of the Mail Steamship Company feel
aissurcd of Congress granting them the necessary
assistance, as it is of special importance.

WANTS TO GO ABROAD. ,
A. B. Cornell, Surveyor' of the port of
New York, has applied for a foreign mission,
and as the President's dear friend, the blonde
Cohkling, backs him, Ulysses c4n hardly
say to him. nay.
YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION.
The war between the Young M$n's Christian
Association and the ministers here, still
wages. The Reverends are determined that
the only way to heaven is, through their
hands, and that the Y. M. C-.A^are doing a
very irregular sort of thing by boMjing services
in their hall, and thus depleting the.
churches of the regulars. The people, who
arc not so materially interested as the ministers
in the extent of the church congregations,
are with the Association in th^ir efforts
to do good, and think the white cravatted
gents, have made Judie^of themselves.
