Mrs. Victoria Woodhull attended a
meeting of Spiritualist in Troy and in
formed them, that she had for many
years been possessed of the spirit of
Demosthenes, The evidence.she .offer!
od was a long speech, in tedious twad
dle and gibberish, which clearly dem
onstrated that Demosthenes is in .sad
ly declining intelleetnalhealth, and,in
sober truth, , into something very much
like idiocy. He has lost, too, all his
oratorical powers, having forgotten his
native Greek, has failed to learn pb-
lite English, Nobody can imagine
why he selected Mrs. Woodhull for his
tabe'maclb ihore than anybody Can im
agine why the devils entered the swine.
The taste was bad and the induce

soul shrank from the amorphous coat
and forked pantaloons and- truncated

he choose this woman? And why, oh,
why! having possessed her, does the
ghost of Demosthenes make a goose of
himself whenever he opens the borrow

A SUBLIME SPECTACLE.
Escorted by Mayor Hiiff, and accom
panied- byEx^Govemors, Judges; Con
gressmen, .Colonels arid Majors dd in-
fiiiitpyi,, with head erect and elastic
step,': comes the hero of the nineteenth
centniy,'. •
E. TATSOS WESTOK,
the champion pedestrian—all led by a
sixteen-string band. He'is going to
walk—E. Paysdu Ls-Xgoiug to walk in
the presence of this vast multitude.
Pause awhile and let ns endeavor to
grasp the tremendous thought! ’Tis
for this that he left the security of his
Northern home" and braved the dan
gers Of the bloodthirsty En-klux. He
does not want your irioney—E. Payson
doesn’t—oh, no! He is not a mendi
cant—E. Patson isn’t—not at all. He
is a hero—E. Payson is—because he
can walk. He is the wonder of the.
age, and an honor to his sex. He is
the world’s benefactor, for does he not
walk in the presence of a vast multi
tude? N. Bonaparte, stand aside;
Alexander the G., get out of the way;
Wellington, don’t mention Waterloo;
hide out, C-oeuf de Lion; G, Washing
ton, resign that hail-het; all of you
hide your diminished heads. Yon are
eclipsed by the immortal E. Payson
W. He, and he only, bas walked in
the presence of a vast multitude.
H you have tears, prepare to shed
them now. He begins to walk. The
multitude holds its breath in horror.
Ladies faint and are borne aWay insen
sible. Children are dragged by force
from the thrilling scene. He walks.
The excitement grows more intense.
Several members of the sixteen-strin:
band blow their brains out in frantic
attempts to make music worthy of the
occasion. Some of the spectators be
come crazy, and rush wildly about with
glaring eyes andfoaming mouths; oth
ers cast themselves headlong from the
tops of the buildings. Horses become
maddened with .fright, and dash furi
ously around, upsetting vehicles and
killing riders. The loss of life is fear
ful. Still he walks. The Heathen
Chinee, who copks' “twelve many” bis
cuits at one time in the Premium Hall,
pokes his head out of a window to look.
He utters a heartrending cry, “Hong
kong!” rushes ro the river and drowns
himself. _
E. Payson W. new walks on his
head. The cry goes from mouth to
mouth, “He walks on Iris head,’” A
hardened wretch, Bomewhere in the
crowd, gently insinuates: “Keno!”
The multitude glare on him with
bloodshot eyes. The wretch again
sighs feebly, “Keno!” The infuriated
mob tear trim limb from limb.
E. Payson now begins to walk on his
left ear. The multitude become panic-
stricken, and, in speelriess horror, flee
from the place.

Reader, our nerves are unstrung by
tbis recital, and we cannot further de
scribe what took place at tne Fair. We
cannot tell how Miss Lottie St. Clair,
in male attire, went up in a balloon;
how, as the. balloon, started up, this
bewitching female stretched one foot
over the side of the basket and the-
spectators cheered; how the balloon
came down in a tree, and Miss Lottie
;St. C. was suspended, in the air; how a
stalwart negro climbed the tree, threw
a rope toier, drew her into the tree,
handled her. gently—very gently—and
how" sfle went down a .ladder back
wards. all the while making choice re
marks to the crowd below. About all
this we cannot tell you. But we do
tell you that this sight made us rejoice
that all the women who go np iu bal
loons,, and wear breeches, have, to bg
imported, becausenone sueh are native
to our soil. . . And it. made us regret

dead-heads and bummers that com

attractions.
Another tiring we will say. Take it
altogether, this was'the grandest and
most magnificent Fair ever held in
Georgia, and to Mayor Huff is due all
the honor.

First Sxow Fall.—The Cumber
land: (Md,j News, of the 12th instant,
says that to the day previous, snow
fell at seveiaL points on the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad, west from that
city, adding that at Cumberland and
Oakland the fall was quite neavv.
neat little district Fair, and as such, it
certainly came up to our expectations.
The display of different kinds of
stock was good particularly of horses.
The hordes exhibited there wonld have
done credit to any Fair. In fact,
some of them went to the Macon Fair
and took preminms. The display of
machinery and agriculturaliinplements
was not so good as we would like to
have seen; Crockett’s horse, power,
from Macon was there, and- several
corn and cotton planters. .
There was the. best assortment of
vegetables,, for- the season, that we
ever saw. One basket had twenty-
seven different kinds, embracing every
variety that cpnld be imagined. We
saw a great curiosity in this. depart
ment—a Chinese bean, 26 inches long
and. from 1J to 2 inches in diameter,
the vine of which is said to grow to
the length of 150 feet.-
The ornamental department was not
as full and fancy as it might have
been if the people had given more as
sistance to the executive committee’s
efforts. We noticed quite a handsome
show of photographs; some elegant
oil painting by Mrs. Jas. H. Trontman;
a fine historical sketch of Gen. J. E.
Johnson’s last-head-quarters by J. B.
Gofield,- of Perry; and some of the
most beautiful-wax . work we ever be
held by Miss Sperry, of Marshallville.
There were also some very fine spec!-
mens pf wax Work by a young lady of
13. A sign for the Planters’ Bank, of
Fort Valley, painted- by Hr. Norrell
of that place, attracted a great deal of
attention.
We are satisfied that the ladies of
our section are not lacking in some of
the boasted accomplishments of their
grandmothers. ; Such an array of
quilts, counterpanes, coverlets, etc.,
we never saw before. The department
of domestic manufactures was full and
complete.
The address of CoL Thos.; Harde
man was like all his other speeches,
-practicable, sensible! and eloquent. It
abounded in fine thoughts and timely
suggestions, and was clothed in beau
tiful language and adorned with happy
illustrations.
There were no patent Yankee hum
bugs at this Fair—no “world renowned
pedestrian,” no “daring female serou-
ant,” no horse-racing, no betting, no
gambling, rio drunkenness, no disor
derly conduct of any kind. This fact
we note with considerable pride and
pleasure. It was the most respectable
and orderly Fair we ever saw. The
ttttenance was very good indeed, peo
ple coming from all parts of the dis
trict interested in the Fair. The ladies
formed a large proportion of- those
present, and of course gave a beauty
and finish to the scene which it could
not otherwise have had
We are gratified to say that there
were no entries for the premiums of
fered to the best female riders.
Another Side.
The following paragraph presents
another-and quite a different ride to
the picture of Chicago which we have
been looking at:
Only about two millions of bushels
of grain were destroyed at Chicago,
Eight elevators were left in the city Un
injured. The Comfnercial and Finan
cial Chronicle estimates the real deple
tion to the country occasioned by the
Chicago fife, at not exceeding seventy;
five millions of dollars. General Sher
idan says the lynching tale in Chicago
during the fire were all flight of fancy
Nobody was hung and and no case of
incendiarism occurred that he can dis
cover. Dutch Henricks and Barney
Aaron were alive and well in Broad
way, New York, last Friday. The
most painful of catastrophes §of fires
resulted from the savage greed of
hacks and draymen who left many
sick to perish, refusing to carry them
out of danger except at prices the suf
ferers were unable to pay.
The art of conversing well stands
next to genius. Society rarely dis-
criminates between the brilliancy
which shines with a borrowed luster
and the sunlight of genuine originali
ty. We are all apt to he captivated
with trifles. We don’t go down deep
into the hidden nature of.things. But
so the world goes; and it is bnt a
piece of folly for us'to rail at the world
forit. Instead of growing vexed because
most people are prone to see the
crystal rather than the diamond, an
earnest effort should be made to be
ruly worthy of appreciation. And
this is riot a hardship. Montaigue. tells
us that “the mosfc fruitful and natural
exercise of rirind is . conversation. I
.find the use of in more sweet, than .of.
-any oth^r .actiijn of "• ”’' Jw ~ r ’ “ Dl ’ J
:an.’exactiiitio to the degree of care
bestowed upon it.
There is nothing like economy even
in a bridal tonr; witness the following:
A novel wedding took place a few
days ago in a shoe manufactory in
Cleveland. Two of the emplovees
were placed on an elevator, and were
married' by the Rev. Dr. Osheme.
This over, a spring was touched, and
the couple ascended to the fourth
story.—Betumingina few moments,
Mr. Osborne congratulated them on
their happy bridal tour. Cake was
then served.
