Tee Peesuxtatios.—Yesterday at one o’clock r. s. the beautiful fruit casket was presented Ip Col. Steles in behalf of the press to Mayor Duff. A large crowd gathered in Floral Hall, tie land meanwhile discoursing sweet music. Alter the members of tbe press had formed a circle immediately around the stand Col. Styles stepped forward, mounted the table, and, in a few timely and pointed remarks, complimented Mayor Huff for his i-nergy and enterprise, and tie citizens of Macon, especially the ladies, for the interest they had manifested in the great State Fair, at the same time presenting the cas te! to his Honor. Mr. HnC" stopped forward, and with a goodly If pee of unaffected modesty, made a few re acts accepting the testimonial, compliment ing very highly the preBS of Georgia and other States, and closed by saying ho was not a speak ing wan, hut that his friend, Col. Hardeman vu, at the same time introducing tho Colonel in the audience. Col. H. begun by tolling an tteedote of two young men, brothers, who had through college together, one of whom tad receive d all tho honors, while the other had received none. In tho report of the brother teo had won no honors to his father he re marked, "father, brother has received all the tenors, but I’m playing for the odd trick.” The Cal. then said that his friends Styles and Huff ted said all that was to bo said, and that he had nothing to play for but the odd trick. His speech was characteristic of tho man, getting Of some good jokes and at times becoming very eloquent. He complimented very highly the ^borers who had worked so hard to complete ite fair grounds. Col. Capers, of Savannah, was loudly called •or, who responded in a few pointod and elo- SMct remarks, complimenting very highly the ladies, as did each of the other speakers. CoL Gttit, of the New York Express, was next called for. Mr. Gavit remarked in tbe outset tut he was no speaker, he was simply a scrib bler. His few remarks were very pertinent, ted he closed by proposing three old-fashioned cheers for Mayor Hnff, after which the band played “ Hail to the Chief,” and the crowd dis persed- Isteovements.—Col. Lewis, Secrotary of the State Agricultural Society, informs us that the improvements on machines long in use, such as ‘team engines, gins, corn hnskers, etc., as ex cited at tho present Fair are larger than were ever before exhibited in Georgia, and that spec imens of ingenious inventions recently made excel all previous exhibitions of the kind com bined. In fact every department is full, and 'here is no doubt that this is the Fair of Geer s'*- The superiority of this Fair over all others eT er held is doutless attributable to the prestige *Uch the old Agricultural Society holds, and bte maintained for twenty-six years, in the conLlence of tho people. This wide-spread fa stest is in great measure due to the fact that ia its organization county societies from all texts of the State are part and parcel of the or- Kteization. The society has been-honored by a xisit from two ex-Governors, Brown and Jobn- *®» an d two of its ox-presidents, Cooper and tec «y. We have other points of interest to motion in this connection but want of space orbids in this issue. • Peasant exunion of several members 2 Evans’ brigade, was held at the City last night.

Later.—The statement that special treasury agent Hale has been directed to take charged the Savannah Custom-house cannot be verified. New York, October 28.—Bosenwig has been convicted and sentenced to seven years at hard labor. A special to the Tribune says: Tbe investiga tion by the United States Conrt of Claims into the various claims against the United States for cotton seized by Government officers during the rebellion, brings ont some remarkable develop ments which tend" to throw additional light on the mystery which has surrounded the sale of cotton by the government agents soon after it was seized from the rebels during the war.— The government realized from the sole about §30,000,000, bnt the examinations of the gov ernment agents’ books and other evidence which has been obtained through the prosecution of these claims reveals the fact that the cotton was worth over twice that amount It appears that some of the agents at New York disposed of the cotton at 20 cents per pound when its market valno at the time of the sales was 75 cents per pound. Home of the agents appear to have boon in collusion with tho purchasers, and the poorest kinds of cotton were shown as sampler of the entire lot held by the government. The bidders getting it by this arrangement at the low figure of twenty-nine cents per pound, and subsequently seUing it at the market price,there by securing a handsome profit. The claim ants, however, refuse to base their claims at a figure less than its market value at the time of sale, and it is feared that the government will in refunding tho money for these cotton seiz ures be a considerable loser, especially now that the British claimants stand a chance be fore tbe mixed Commission of beiDg allowed some compensation for theso losses. It is now known at tho Treasury that sever.J of these cotton agents defrauded the government out of large amounts of money. The accounts show this, bnt what steps the United States will take to recover its just dues have not been decided upon. Cincinnati, October 28.—The State Auditor has filed bills in the Circuit Court, looking to the dissolution of tho Knickerbocker, Equita ble, Garden City and Commercial Insurance companies, theso companies being bankrupt.

Boston, October ?8.—Tho murder of Kato Leehan is still involved in mystery. Chief of Police Savage requests any information colon lated to throw light upon the tragedy. Wrappad around the furnace wrench with which the mnrder was done, was a copy of the Helena Clarion, a newspaper, dated February 16,1871, published in Helena, Arkansas. Any one send ing such paper to persons in this vicinity should communicate with fhe Chief of Police, as it might famish a clue to the murderer. Philadelphia, October 28.—A bird-fancier, who had a large collection of pigeons, maltez, cats, Gninea-pigs and fancy dogs, absented himself for the past week, from his shanty, on Coates street.

Rome, Ootober 28.—The conclave of cardi nals to consider what action the college should take in the event of the Pope’s death, is shortly to be held at some point in France.

Arrived, Russian brig Ciga- na, Cardiff. Captain Smith, of the Russian brig Cigana, from Cardiff, died at sea, three weeks ago. London, October 28.—An immense gathering of the inhabitants of Greenwich took place on Blackheath Common to-day, to hear an address from Gladstone. It is estimated that nearly 12,000 persons were present. Gladstone ar rived at the speaker’s Btands at noon, accompa nied by his wife. He was greeted wiffi vocife rous and prolonged cheering. He said he was profoundly impressed by the grand era of wel come, and was sorry his dnties at the head of bis Majesty’s government prevented him from oftener visiting his immediate constituency. He then proceeded to discuss subjects which agitated the public. The chief complaint against the government was that it attempted to do too much, bnt necessity existed for stating views and producing measures on more subjects than it was possible to carry into immediate effect. He reverted to the fact that the Liberal administration had had "the longest life of any similar administration since 1832, and there was reason to belie ve that its vitality was unimpaired. Gladstone then delivered a glowing’eulogy of the Queen, and spoke in warm terms of praise of bis oolleagnes in the Government. Their labors bad been arduous, and results showed they had not been in vain. Ireland seemed well satisfied with the past measures of con ciliation, and there was every reason to hope for a future of oontent in that island. The facts connected with the dismissals from the dock-yards have been grossly exaggerated. The total number of men discharged was only 1463, and this redaction of force was made in accord ance with the policy which was originated by bis predecessor. The nation could not bnt be £r»tified by the economies effected by the present Government, through abolition of offi cial patronage,tbe concentration of military and naval forces, withdrawal of troops from Canada andNewZealand,and introduction of the system of army reserves. There was reason for mnch congratulation over the abolition of tho pur chase system in the army. Tho House of Lords might need reform bnt nothing now should be donoprecipitately. ThoLord3had notacted wise ly in rejecting the ballot bill, which would again be introduced in Parliament at the next session. The contagious disease act would bo dealt with at the next session in a manner to commend the sympathies of the nation. Other measures would be brought forward which he hoped would meet with tho approval of Parliament and the country. At the conclusion of his address a resolution of welcoming and thanking Gladstone was put and carried with enthusiastic demon strations of approval, there being only about two hundred dissenting voices. Frankfort, October 28.—The operators at Chemoritz, a large manufacturing town in Saxony, have struck for wagss and hours. Brussels, October 28.—The strike in Ghent is spreading.

The President issued a proclamation a few days since, preliminary to e. declaration of mar tial law over a large portion of South Caro lina. Tho President then, with all the Cab inet officers, except Secretaries Fish and Delano, loft the seat of government, on a pleas me excursion to the northern boundaries of New England. TheJPresident stopped at Bos ton on the pretext of seeing a stone laid in the wall of the new post office bnilding. He attend ed dinners and sapper, and drank choice wines. He rode ont on Snnday afternoon to the splen did residence of Alvin Adams, Esq., on Chest nut Hill, and at a late hour on Sunday he dined with his Honor, Samuel Hooper. Dined and feted by his Boston friends, post office and rev enue officials on Snndav and Monday, he left on Tuesday for Bangob in" Maine, where there is a fair and horse races. President Grant has neglected his duties at the seat of government all snmmor. No other President of the United States ever abandoned the place of Ms official duties as President Grant has done. Living in luxurious ease at Long Branch all snmmor, he has spent the fall month?, so far, in attending horse fairs from Pennsyl vania to Kansas, and has himself put three fast colts into the trotting ring. He is still going, flashed with excitement, dining and drinking week days and on the Sabbath; and one would imagine that ho has not been and is not in fit condition to discharge the grave duties of the Executive Department of the Government with a cool head, or with coolness and deliberation. Was his proclamation in relation to Sonth Carolina necessary ? If it was, then an alarm ing state of things exists" there, which peremp lively demands the presence of the President at the seat of government. But the President himself looked upon tho Sonth Carolina troubles as of small acconnt, when he abandoned Ms post of dnty within a few hours of the time of issuing Ms proclamation, and started on a pleasure journey to Bangor, in Maine. Or, if he did consider the situation in Sonth Carolina each as to demand tho proclamation, then he very deliberately abandoned his post in an horn of danger, simply to gratify his taste for trav eling and wine dinners. Sonth Carolina has been under the control of reconstruction acts and Radical rule for six years. Has it come to this straDge pass, that the authorities of tho State are nnable to manage its local affairs, to punish burglaries and assaults? If so, it is quite time that the President shonld withdraw his proclamations and Ms military rale there, and permit the people of Sonth Carolina to elect a Governor, Legists tare and municipal officers, who will protect persons and proporty as well as they are pro=. tectcd in any other Stale.—Hartford Times.

Godv.'n, of Dougherty county, Ga.; was bom Mrrch 5,1855, and deputed this life September 7,1871. This announcement will eaddon the hearts, not only of her previous mother andthomrny kind rel atives, but also of the multitude of dear young schoolmates who knew hor intimately at Andrew Femalo College, Ctltbbcrt, Ga., with 5 n the pcit threo years. Little did the writer think on the eve of her last vacation, when surrounded by the many dear girls who, for another year, had been bis pu pils, that in less than three short months from date one of their number would bo summoned from earth and its attractions away to that “bourne from whence no traveler returns.” Eat alas! too tine Tommie was then sharing onr college pleasures for the last time. At that time eke was in the enjoy ment of robust health, and gave promieo of loDg life. What a warning is this to the yotrng friends and schoolmates who survive hor! Thinkof it, my so late kind pupils, and fail not to profit by the touching reflection. She died suddenly, and was prepared to go, but you may not be so fortunate. “Death onteis and there’s no defence, His lime there’s none can tell; He’” in a moment call ns hence, To heaven—or dona tj hell.’’ Ponder this subject well and thoroughly now, whilst yon may, and defer not nntll a sick bed mat' ters of so grave importance. Miss Tommie possessed alike a bri'liant intellect and a generous heart, and had the lived wonld doubtless have done honor to her parents and friends, bnt each could not be. Cut down in the midst of her echcol girl ploaenreB and college studies, before yet the hud had ripened into the fall blown rose, she was transplanted in a clime both more congenial and more onduriDg. Her Heavenly Father took her, and there is nothing left ns bnt submission—aside from the consoling reflection that she is now forever freed from earth and its Bor rows. May the great giver of life and salvation look with supreme compassion upon the tender mother whose heart is now blooding from thiB ter rible stroke; and may he richly bestow upon her those commanding Christian graces which can alone, just now, meet her imperative demands. In Heaven eho may ultimately meet the loved and lost: "*311610 friends will meet again Who have loved; Their embraces will be sweet At the dear Redeemer's feet, And they’ll meet to part no more, Who have loved.” A.
