SUN-STROKES. iHX- “Chicago Sparks” is now flitting through the papers. *©. Euiuula has a skating rink, and John Black is worse addled than ever. *P4_ Grant's Portland speech was only an additional manifestation of that “reticence” for whioh he is distinguished. "‘ISF Brigham Yonng pleads not guilty to his indictment for polygamy. If hav ing sixteen wires is not polygamy, what isjit f ta_ Grant also made an oration at the Bangor Railroad celebration. He said “this occasion is one with which I am much pleased.” aa. The Indianaplis Journal says: “President Grant, since the inauguration, has gained twenty-eight pounds in weight.” Any other calf, pampered as he has been, would have gained as much, or more. *@U The Washington Chronicle says: “Whisky, it is said out West, is the only thing the Democrats have not departed from.” They know that, if they were to depart from it a moment, the Radicals would steal it all.

Yea He “abolished” it with a ven geance in the erso of the oonvict Bowen —didn’t ho f tS' The Louisville Comtnercitd (Radi cal) manifests some oonoem about the meaning of the word “regenerate,” and well it may, for according to orthodox interpretation of the term there is not “saving grace” enough in tho creod of the most liberal denomination to “regen erate” a thoroughly Radical organ, like the Commercial General Sherman will soon be on his way to Europe to examine the milita ry systems of England and the Continent, in order to adapt some one of them to the necessities of this Government— Probably he will pay special attention to tho system by which England holds Ire land in subjection, and then inquire of the members of the late Commune, how the petroleum system answers for the purposes of incendiarism.

We have thought for somo time of is suing a daily supplement to tho Commer cial in order to publish one of Mr. Stcph ens’ “paragraphs.”—Louisville Commer cial Do, and you will have more good sense and political history in that single “sup plement” than bos been published in the whole throe volumes and ninety- seven numbers which comprise the files of the Commercial. ADVENTURES WITH A FUN NY PAPER. If there is one thing for which tho Louisville Courier-Journal is more noted than for another, it is wit. It is notoriously the funny paper of the coun try. It is always on the grin. Its very types appear to partake of the inspiration of its editorials. Its o's appear to be specially rounded for a hearty guflaw, its s’s seem to be wriggling with ill-conceal ed merriment, while there is a twinkle in its i’s so full of fun that the reader has to laugh in spite of himself. Talk about “mother-wit,” tho Courier-Journal has not only it, but the wit of the father, brothers and sisters, brothers in-law, uncles, aunts, oousins, in fact of the whole family. Punch in its palmiest days, never did anything com parable with it Jerrold never (dreamed that such jokes could be perpetrated as find their way into its columna every day. Hood, had tho Courier-Journal been published in his day and land, would have “never smiled again,” nor would he have attempted to kindle a smile upon the faoesof others. HodJJoe Mill er been a reader of that paper, he would never had dared to perpetrate one of those miserable jokes of his. There is no doubt that a stray copy of tho Courier- Journal caused tho untimely death of A. Ward, and if Josh Billings were to rend it for a week, he would trouble tho world with no more “Aforisms" nor “Allmi- ttg-The Long Island (New York) City Press says: "A Republican paper, dis gusted with Grant, says that ‘he is a Democrat, that he always was, that he never changed his politics, that he never became a Republican, never was in sym pathy with the Republicans, and never will be.’ No you don’t" The Press is right in saying “No you don’tl” Grant can’t be crowded over now; but had he never made that Portland speech, the matter might have been open for con sideration. As it is, the door is closed and barred; and to all efforts to push him over, the Democrats will say, “no you don’t” 1^. The Washington Chronicle, of the 23d, says: “ Hon. J. W. Clift, of the State of Georgia, and others, had a con sultation with Secretary Boutwelt on Saturday, concerning the filling of certain vacant offices in that State. Among these are three collectorships and one as- aessoruhip. No final action will be taken in these cases until a week or two hence.” Georgia has become so accustomed to reeeiving slanders and insults at the hands of a venal Radical press, that it is seldom considered worth while to rebuke or resent them, but when “tho most un- kindest cut of all” is given in attributing such stock as Clift to Georgia, “patience ceases to be a virtue," and, the people arise in their majesty and with one voice ory out—‘ you’re another 1” BA- Chicago has passed out of the taethof the “fire-fiend,” and into the hands of the poets. Bret Harto does her destruction, in the following lines, which appear in Every Saturday: BtaWwiel aas MaaSas. honeJaaa. 'pasOii*. pros*.

But haply with wan fingers mu she feel Thnk**f to the pruSrefi ■**- TbOgtrtW lift famftfp and onr love reveal. The Courier-Journal persist* in wanting to celebrate the cow that kicked over the lamp. It latest effort is in tho following lines: Turn was a kovlnr ofCMtwr. Hhe up her mind to let law go; Hits wicked okt tramp Kicked over a lamp. And away to the minds went Chicago. While it is til right and proper that “Leary’s cow” should have her due, it is not right thst the “nou-cxplosive” should be robbed of its portion of celebrity. Aaraj with that cow cl Chicago, Mot let her into a "mw~ fO Tha fir# na'ar had baas ruled ap that lamp in Chicago. One who reads the Courier-Journal is obliged to laugh. There is no help for it. It is laugh or burst A sort of a half “anigger,” half Bnarl won’t do. It must be a full round detonating caclii- nation, such as tortures one’s diaphram and churns tho gastric juice until it be gins to gnaw tho stomach for VC17 hunger. Wo tried to read the Courier-Journal, and did read it until our landlady raised the price of board on’ us. Wo laughod ao much that we wore ulways hungry, and when wo sat at table wo liturally do vastated our landlady's larder, and she raised tbo price of board. Being unwilling to sunder old ties, we were for aw long time unablo to decide between the Courier- Journal and our boarding-house. We concluded, however, to cling to the latter and take the former second hand. In other words, wo dotermined to biro a laughing editor, whose business it should be to read tho' Courier-Journal The first man wo hired, agreed to take it a day on trial. He said ho loved to laugh, but if ho laughed too much it always mado bis face red and gave him tho hiccups, and then his friends twitted him with having taken a toddy or two too much. But having seen Bishop last winter, and survived, he would risk ono issue of the Courier-Journal We handed him tho paper, and he touched it giugcr- ly, oa if ho were afraid some hidden fun would spring out of it to tickle him una wares. He mnnaged to open it, however, and his eyes fell upon the following par agraph: A. H. S. has been re-iuforced iu Tee Atlanta Sen by two distinguished psra- graphists who sign themselves A. M. S. and J. N. S. He read it through, and then quietly laid the paper upon the table. His face grew red and broad, his breath grew short and quick; his legs twitched as if there were a oolio in each one of them; his arms quiverod like the leaves of an aspen; his eyes sunk bockiuto his head out of sight Thus the unfortunate man sat for a moment, then he tumbled over on a pile of exchanges as if he had l>een shot, and then followed an explosion. Well, the Westfield explosion was noth ing to it The explosion of a powder magazino to that explosion, was os the re port of a pop-gun would bo to tho dread ful bang of a seven hundred pounder. Tho mau had to bo carried home on a shutter, and his wife threatened to sue as for damages, and would have done so had we not promised to send her a copy of the Courier-Journal, just to keep the old man in a good humor. We determined to make another effort to obtain a laughing editor. After a fatiguing scorch, we found an individual who had not beeu known to laugh, or oven smile in ten years. Ho was deaf, blind in one eye, bad the asthma, one foot was swollen with the gout, and ono leg was drawn double with a rhemuntsm of five years standing; besides ho was fret ting with the tooth-ache and had a boil on a tender portion of his body. Ho was willing to take the job and was ready to sign a contract for a year. Wo told him wo wanted him first on trial for ono day, and, if he could endure that, he might consider himself a permanent fixture of the office. Ho entered upon his duties at ouce.— Four stout negroes brought him tenderly up the three flights of stairs leading to the editorial room. They handled him lovingly as a mother would handle a fresh infant. They pnt his easy chair down as daintily as a rational mau would handle a hundred ponnd can of nytro-glycerino. Yet he coned and swore at them for try ing to kill him by their rough usage. Before ho had timo to recover from hit p*‘ n and ill-temper, we thrnst the latest Courier-Journal under his nose. He stormed at ns for handing it to him so roughly, and with hugest of passions raging in him, he opened the paper and hia eye fell upon the following paragraph He read : The Boston Post tells us that “there were eighty-two italic wonts in Mr. atephen? last paragraph.” We are anr- riaed the number was so amalL no a slate before a school boy’s devastating sponge. He leaned back in his chair, and became, at once, a perfect model of ease. He was a glorious study for a pain ter. When first ho was brought into tho office, his face would have made a per fect model ior a Parrhssitis; and had it been available iu tho day of that emi nent artist, it would have uvoided tho necessity of tormenting a slave death in order to obtain a “ fine agony ” for tho brow of hia Prometheus; but, when ho had read that paragraph once, the same faoe would have answered for a model for a St John—it wore snob a look of beatification. Eujoying this, hia first luxury in ten awful years, for at least a half an hoar, without saying a word, he again resumed his pa per, and read the following paragraph: An exchange says “Mr. Stephens gives very strange and wioked advioe to the people of Georgia. ” Good heavens! can it be possible that he has advised the people of Georgia not to subscribe for the Courier-Journal f That capped the climax. There was one tremor through his body, then a shud der, next a contortion, then a convulsion, then an explosion, that shook tho offioe to its foundation, pied two galleys of typo, upset the lye-pot, and sent the rollor of the proof-prees out up on the roof of a neighboring build ing; while tho man, forgetting his rheu mutism and gout, and other couglomo ration of ills which had made him a sec ond edition of Job, danced hornpipes at a rate that would have mado a Virginia negro blnsh in spito of his blackness and he ended tho whole demonstration by going down stairs at two bounds and rushing homo to his wife, a well mau, leaving us again without a laughing edi tor and iu despair. We aro unhappy over this matter. Wo despair of getting a man who can stand tho test. Wo can’t stand any more laughing. Our sides liave been raw for six months and our landlady is inexo rable. Wo arc at a loss what to do, un less it bo to appeal to tho Courier-Jourmd not to bo so funny. A little fun will do admirably. But this triple-extracted, double-distilled, high-pressure fun just ruins a reader, and will, if persisted in, mako perfect wrecks of ull the readers of tho champion fanny paper of America. Wo appeal to tho oditor not to bo as fun ny as ho can : lllutcl)CB, Jctnclrn, (Etc. SOMETHING NEW. LAW SHE & HAYMES, THE OLD RELIABLE. T ) OUR FRIENDS AND PATRONS, GREETING.

( Yesterday the State Fair Grounds at this place were thrown open to the pub lic. It was an event long and anxiously anticipated by the citizens, as ' veil as by the friends of Macon, os there has been an uncalled for rivalry oonnected with tho Stato Fairs, entirely unbecoming our people; and which, it is hoped, willceaso entirely with this fair. The grounds were in thorough order yesterday. Everything that the city of Macon had promised was fulfilled. The nnmlicr of entries was larger than at any fair wo have had; and tbo show of goods of every description is equal to tho “great expectations" of the people. nil FINE ABTH BCILDINO is, within itaolf, an exposition that has rarely ever bcon oqualou in tho South. To enter it, and guzo around, one conld easily fancy that ho hod been transported to somo scene of Eastern splendor, where everything is lovely to tho eye, as if wrought of finest fabrics, and brilliant with the rarest combinations of color. I am willing to stako tho reputation of tho Georgia State Fair upon this one room, and if there were nothing else upon the ground tho Fair would bo called a success. THE HACU1NK1IT UKl'AimUCNT is crowded to overflowing—u large num ber of tho best labor-saving machinery being on exhibition. There aro no less than a lialf dozen different engines that have been put up outside the building, for lack of room, notwithstanding the immense size of tho building sot sport for them. So far as the amount of goods on ex hibition goes, tho Fair is mi squalled by any we have seen. There is a very large number of horses on the grounds, and in this line there is no doubt there will be a plenty of fan and excitement WESTON’S WALK, yesterday against time, was witnessed by thousands, and uotwithstandini THE ATLANTA SUN!
