THE A T L AN T A WEEKLY SUN. OGtEXHOnPK PARK. Another Pine Success. The Managers ti** ^' a ^ r ^ iaVG reason to feel flattered at the continued success of the exposition. Yesterday was a fine day. The weather was as good as if it was made to order; and, consequently, a first-rate crowd was in the Park. Every thing passed off admirably, and, as far as we could Icaro, everybody was pleased. I0E MECHANICAL HALL not so crowded with exhibitors as wt year. Public taste seems to have hcen inspired with the utility of orna ment more than the “utility of utility.” Chief among the attractions of yester-1 dav were the specimens of ice, manu factured by the Atlanta Ice Manufactur ing Company. It was bespangled with inlays of fishes, melons, fruits, flowers, etc., and was truly beautiful. Some WINDOW COBNICES, made apparently of zinc, were exhibited by Joseph Qaerbacke, of Chattanooga. A MOVABLE SHELF, with shelves adjustible to any position, is a novel invention. THE MAGIC CHUBN of Mitchell & Smith, Decatur, ought to be enthroned King of the Dairy, every where. THOMAS M. CLARK & CO’S fine display of assorted tools was the at traction on the second floor. THE SCOFIELD BOLLING MILL COMPANY exhibits a bar of railroad iron sixty feet long. Two such rails would be sufficient to construct a short line of road,, and they would make an admirable one, COAL. A. C. Ladd exhibits a lot of Anthra cite coal, aleo a bushel of Tennessee coal, which is the nearest approximation we have ever seen to the Pennsylvania can ned Both these specimens are regarded as very fine, and with plenty of either a whole family could he kept comfortable during an entire winter. Just here we might take occasion to Bay that Ladd contributes much to the interest of the Pair. He has his hy draulic and alabaster limes on exhibition; but is in his element most when upon the lightning rod question. He has on ex- over on the pavement. “When found, his head was still swimming, and they carried him off. The Mayor ordered Jonsen to collect $5 and costs out of Kimball for building his house so high and running up little shanties on the top which caused people to grow dizzy look ing at them. Jonsen said he would ride it out in the elevator, which was satisfac tory to all hands. FANNY BARREN was not so barren as her name would in dicate, for she came into Court with a baby which was kicking and yelling like a young panther. It had the colic, and Jonsen and Pat" Fitzgibbons made it some soot tea to qniet its pains before the Court could proceed. of putting on the engagement ring. It has thrilling associations for all who have passed this trying (?) ordeal, and to the uninitiated it is a charming lesson. We’ll wager a jewsliarp there’s not a bachelor in the city that would dare look at it. The Fair is a success; it .is a charming resort. Citizens and visitors have been liberal, but with all this, Wesley Chapel is not yet completed. Go and swell the list of contributors ^and donations. Go vote presents of riDgs, bracelets, &c. for your dearest dulcina, and lie down with a clear conscience and a palpitating heart. Fair Dote. at any moment. No. 2, all humility, con sidering they had long been friends and neighbors, apologised, stating that no offense was meant; but No. 1, not so easi- iy tionate farewell. •• Tho drooping leaves shall wholly die, The tempest and the rain, And drifting snow shall fill the sky, Before we go again.

ANOTHER LIGHTNING BOD Is most beautifully displayed by the Southern Star Lightning Bod Company. This company has its manufactory and headquarters at Gainesville, at the other end of the Air Line Kailroad, and our friend, J. E. Iledwine, of the Eagle, is President. They make a handsome show. OTHER MATTERS. Mr. Joseph S. Lehman, of Mount Joy, Pennsylvania, exhibits a splendid assort ment of coverlets, of his own design and mannfactnre. These are very beautiful, and deservedly attract much attention, Mr. Lehman is a young man, full of busi ness, and has great ingenuity.” He buys all his yarns from this State, and it is hoped that before he leaves here ho will make arrangements to have his goods regularly on sale here. Dr. Tabor exhibits a knitting machine, which draws a crowd all the time. Mr. L. B. Langford makes a fine dis- play of enameled slate and iron mantels. Mr. Charles Bohnefeld shows some furniture, which is superb. THE MINIATUBE|sTEAMER attracts many visitors to the pond. It is a perfect type of .a full rigged ocean steam er and “walks the water like a thing of life,” It will be on duty to-day lrom 11 to 12 o’clock, and from 3 to 4. Captain Taylor in command and Engineer Shear er at the throttle. THE TRIAL OF FIRE ENGINES will take place to-day, and the contest will be a lively one. All the companies have resolved'to have that horn, and the one that gets it will have to do some pret ty playing. . PEMBERTON TAYLOB & CO. exhibited a fine lot of their deservedly popular perfumeries. These are not sur passed even by Lubin, and they are dis played in the finest lot of bottles ever brought to the State. JO MORGAN, better known, as the Major, exhibits a Carbolic Tooth wash, Which is his own pre] parntion, aud he is willing to avouch its ability to cleanse the filthiest month in Georgia. It is an excellent preparation, and will accomplish all that is claimed for it. We are glad to see Jo developing his inventive genius. MAYOR’S COURT.

His Honor, considering that heretofore No. 1 had been a peaceful citizen, com promised the matter with an eloquent lecture on the disastrous consequences of hasty temper and serious joking, and $20 and costs, which we fear deprived some prattling child of his candy at home. A WANDERING PUGILIST. Mary Phillips was accused of drunk enness and quarreling. She denied the fiist charge. She loved a morning dram, but she believed she could take as much as most people with out being affected. As to the second charge she was not so certain. Her sis ter, Bosa Thompson, had a photograph (doubtless of Sir Knight Don Beginaldo deCardozo) which she refused to give up, and she assumed the responsibility of correcting her, and proceeded to inflict punishment by slapping her on the mouth. This slight-of-hand trick was enacted seyeral times, to the edification of ;he public and discomfiture of the un fortunate Bosa. About this time some policemen came up, and greatly indignant that such a novel and fancy exhibition should be enacted without the proper license, invited the young artistes to the morning reception, where their talents were duly appreciated by a more enlight ened audience. A new feature of the exhibition was a ghastly scar on the fore head of Miss Bosa, which was accident ally (?) made by the dextrous hand of the accomplished Mary, in her slight of hand maneuvres.

Editors Daily Sun: In your paper of this morning, alluding to Charleston mer chants coming to.Atlanta,it is stated tha“ Messrs.

Highly Valuable Lands on the Air Line Railroad. We invite attention to tho advertise ment of Samuel W. Knox, administrator, giving notice that on tho first Tuesday in November he will sell, at Lawrenceville, a large quantity of the very best lands, among which are fine Chattahoochee bot toms, lying on and near the Air Line Eailroad, in the neighborhood Of Du luth, Peachtree road, &c. This is a very great sale of valuable lands, near tho great Air Line Bailway, soon to be running through from here to Bichmond, making it the greatest through line from the North to the South west, and in one of tho healthiest coun tries on the globe. Another Man Killed. As the Madison Accommodation train was coming into the city yesterday, at about 10 £ o’clock, and when about one mile this side of Decatur, the engine ran over and killed a Mr. Beagan, who was walking on tho track. Tho engineer rang the bell, reversed his engine, and used everything in his power to stop his train, but could not until too late. The unfor tunate man was a brother to Maj. Bea gan, of this city, and was nearly his age. The Locomotive. Mr. Frank B. Ticknor of the Opelika Locomotive, is in the city.

It does not wil lingly let the halter draw around the neck of a single rogue In the whole lot; for if all the rogues in the party were punished, barely an office-holder would be left to tell the tale. The Ladies’ Fair. It is a compliment to the energy, pa triotism, spirit of enterprise and person al charms of the ladies, that, notwith standing the many places of amusement in the city, their Fair Hall, in James’ New Building, is thronged every night with the fashion of the city. And it is further a eulogy on their persuasive elo quence, whether with words, actions or more qniet, but equally effective, de vices, or the gentlemen’s liberality, that at every table and comer, purses , spill their contents into snowy hands. We dislike to be invidious, bat while en raptured with their many persona charms, we wonder if some con sideration. stronger than adhesive, to build the new church, has not prompted this munificence. Some of these little charmers, not satisfied with these unwarrantable exactions of money, him the best puff, we venture to say that we can name the winner. It would be a 'groundhog” case. Distinguished Men are crowding into the city, and we can safely say there is as much brains and genuine hard sense packed into the Kim ball House, at this time, as one establish ment can stand. It is very refreshing to see them about, as we like their company, and are proud that they have come to pay their respects to our Fair. And, also at the same establishment, there is an unusually large number of Beautiful Ladies, some few brides, numerous beautiful belles who wouldn’t be brides, a number of distinguished matrons, while occa sionally one sees an elderly (?) lady; but they are all pretty and good, and we trust they are happy, aud will remain in our midst a long time. MAYOR’S COURT. Monday morning the roll was called, aud five delinquents answered. Lowry then had his eyes bandaged, and put the Mayor and Council in one side of his scales and Jonsen pnt john miLlet iu on the other. Miller is a German, and don’t speak English worth a cent. He had , , , , been peddling onions on tbe streets with- !“”• b 7 s ? me *'Uful maneawe, nfled out license, for which he was arrested. Miller had an interpreter along, and when the Court asked him if he was guilty, his friend told him to say, “ Nix cum arouse.” Miller said it, and then he and his friend had a long roll of Dutch talk, which “got clean away” with Lowry. This was evidence by proxy. Any way, it so bewildered the Court that it told J. M. to go along “mit himself.” He was so elated at getting off that he strode out into the raiu, sing ing: “ “eioEkolig Uys have kum. Te Mildest ot dis jeer; Gif me von viece of Switzer kase.

BBOWNFOED came on a visit to the Fair, and in look ing around at the sights, he discovered the Kimball House. He stood on the pavement below and looked up at its magnificent height so long and so steady that it made his head swim, and he fell hearts by the score, and then left their victims robbed of their last earthly hope. Bat all things “ are fair in love and war' and Church fairs. THE FLORAL BOWER Is a recherche, sequestered, sentimental retreat, alive with wines, fruits, creams, candies, nectars, etc. It is an emporium of beauty, with something of that kind for its queen. TUB PEARL SEEKERS are a roving band of charming banditti who repay all their depredations by gentle smiles, and now and then precious jewel discovered among the mul titude of precious wares. They are still diving after hearts long since covered up with melancholy and disponaency. T'TTR ABT GALLERY is a surprise. Ve dare any one to visit the hall without resisting the temptation to enter this secluded, weird, mysteri ous place. Yesterday the fair, among many other donations, received from New York ° handsome PIECE OF STATUARY, representing the parting lover in the ac Medley Soiree. His Honor’s reception yesterday morn ing was graced by a very select delegation of gentlemen, courtesans, blondes and minstrels, gallants (colored) of the most approved stamp, accomplished slander ers, and female pugilists, and the pitifnl victims of them all. His Honor ascended the tribunal with heart bleeding for human depravity, but with a will as impregnable as Gibral tar, to cheek tbe ruin that threatens to engulf the precious morals of Atlanta; consequently, when a A SPARTAN YOUTH, A stranger to fortune and fame,” but unfortunately not to Atlanta benzine, plead guilty to being drunk. Bis Honor reprimanded him severely, recorded the usual penalty, bnt a pearly tear-drop fell and blotted out the offense forever, and the wayward youth went away rejoicing. TWO|cOUNTBY GENTLEMEN, whose names we will not mention, were arraigned for quarreling and disorderly conduct It seems that No. 1 was qui etly pursuing his way home, musing probably on the Fair and chil dren at home, when No. 2, dangling his feet over the counter of a store (just the position to crack a joke,) gave a significant whittle, which, reach ing the ears of No. 1, aroused his wrath He rode up to the door and intimated to No. 2, that he had paid his taxes, and had a right to ride the streets and not be subjected to ridicule and open insult, and that he was ready to horse-whip him We learn that a fire broke out in the kitchen of the Bartou House, at Carters- ville, on Wednesday morning, which cre ated considerable excitement and alarm for a time. The kitchen and rear build ings were consumed, but no other dam age was done, the fire being checked without spreading to other parts of the town. A keg of whisky was rolled out from some building, which was imbibed quite freely, causing some considerable fighting, but no great harm was done. Tlic West Point Fire|Company. About fifty members of this company arrived yesterday, with their engine, and will contest for the premium at the Park to-day. On the arrival of the train, the com pany formed, and were escorted to No, 2 Engine house, where a nice collation •was served, and a neat little reception speech of welcome by Jimmie Gullatt, was responded to by the Foreman of the West Point Company, after which they marched to No. 1 Engine house, on Broad street, where they also met a hearty welcome from the boys. A com mittee was appointed to provide accom modations for the visitors, and they will remain guests of the Atlanta Fire De partment during their stay. It is seldom one sees a finer body of men than the West Point boys, and we can tell their contestants in advance that a good deal of muscle and drill will be necessary to “get around” these fellows.
