An effort will be made to got Iho 3i reiton of the North Georgia stock and fair association to continue the exhibi tion and races until Saturday night— one week. If a programme can be ar ranged; tho people will stay, and don’t you forget it. The above appears in the Conolilulion of Sa'orday, or. rather we should say Friday evening, and dated Saturday. Then comes the Atlanta Tort of the eeme day, and saye, “considering yester day as the first day, there never was a Fair in Atlanta or in the State which opened 60 propitiously. It wae estimated that over fire thousand people visited the gronudB yesterday, and for to-day these figures will have beau doubled before night,” Bat “yesterday" was not the first day according to tbo muchly adveitised pro gramme, but Monday the 21st, when the gates were duly opened and the money of all who came rcoeived. We had thought all along that the fair wsb to continue one week only, and our respect ed contemporaries have uniformly denied that it wsa intended to His ate against the acnnal exposition of the State prop er, which been held for a long eeriee of years, and represents ovary interest in the commonwealth. Even when the an nouncement wae positively made that ig noring tho set time published in thous ands of circulars, and repeated through sooresof newspaper advertisement?, the exhibition would commence on e st fair day and be continued six days,” or by that eho wing untllWcdnesday of this week, tve felt disposed to mako no special com plaint, in view of the exceedingly in- olement weather, which had effectually rqaelobed their show. But now, aft- r three olondiess days, with three moro to come in all probability, to have it gravely stated that tho whole of o week will also be monopolized by the North Geor gia Association, despite tho opening of the State Fair, shows how hollow were those protestations that Atlanta meant no hostility to the exhibitions of the Georgia Agricultural Society, but really intended to benefit them by her own ex hibitions, albeit special osre had been tsk a to fo ttal tho forme; by just one week, so that it would be well nigh im possible for those who went to Atlanta to visit Macon also. This treament will be received with un utterable disgust by all Middle and Southern Georgia, also by those in the hilt c.-antry of the State, who have any interest in that grand annual industrial show which has co long a period il lustrated the com nwealth and aocom- pi.shed so muoh for her material prog ress. We do not in the least wish to be un derstood ui animadverting upon our brethren of the Atlanta press, ae they are simply ventilating the action of the constituted authorities in tbo premises. But we submit that this is cot tho prop- !■&*^ckuf^eecrional jealousy which was originally moved to Atlanta by the power of Federal bayonets, and located there by tbo aid, in a large measure, of Radical negro votes. —Cardinal McOnckey confirmed 500 moo and women at the Bedemptoriata’ Church.

Gentle men, on Wednesday. A rumor having obtained currency that the merchants and business msn ot M con s lling to close their door during the parade and imposing ceremo nies connected with the unveiling o( the Confederate monument, an indignant ady exclaimed: “I do not believe it. For fontteen long years tho women of Macon have labored night and day to erect this monument, pleading, urging and almost compelling their hus bands and brothers to aid ia tho good work, and now that they have succeeded, and the boantifal and ebaste etraotnre challenges tho admiiation o£ all, the community cannot, mutt not, bs wanting in sympathy with the last crowning act, whioh ia tho solemn nnveiling asd dedi cation of this noble monnmens to the he roic dead.” This patriotic l&dy’bat voices tho al most unanimous opinion of the publio, and wo trust that tho business men of the city will heed her remarks. Tho euo- eess of the Jasper Centennial wa3 mainly owing to tho interest and self abnegation displayed by all guilds and classes of the city of Savannah. They closed thtir stores, ornamented every building with countless flags and transparencies, and vied with each other in extending the most boundless hospitality to tho visitors and guests of tho city. Shall Mseoa do less? Wo trow not. Let our merchants then resolvo that ttey will devote at least one half day to the graceful duty of rendering due honor to the fallen bravo who died in defense of Southern liberty. We trust thi3 appeal will not be made ia vain, and that next Wednesday wil* witness the proud spectacle of a whole communi'y turning out cn masse to do homage to tho loved and lost of the late struggle for independence. He that refases to de so wil! find in tbo end that ho bus gained nothing by tbc exhibition oi tsuuu supreme Eun=n- ness. Lot next Wednesday then by uni versal cement be observed as a general holiday. FOUSYTH FIRE. Honroc Female Cntlege Burned— SG.OOO Irzursuce. From advance sheets of (ha Monroe Advertiser wo got the following particu lars of the burning of the Female College building in Forsyth: About 8 o’clock oa Sri arday morairg laet smoke was seen issuing from tbn top of the Monroe Female Co'.lege building. Efforts were at cnca made to find the source of the fire, but nothing bat the smoko could be seen, oozing through the cracks of the ceiling acd roof. Iu a few moments the roof burst into a blaze, so quick and to enddenas almost to paralyze effort. Tte alarm was sounded and hun. deeds went to the burning building to do all they oould in caving tho furniture and othor contenfs of the oollege. A groat deal ot farcituro and all of tho baggage and personal properly of the young U- di- a were eaved. Many useful books of the horaries and numerous articles of value and come furniture were burned. The fire commenced in the rooE and burned elowly downward, giving time to get the furniture and trunks out. President As tarj and Dt. Hiilyer sustained consider able Joss, Twice have tho devour ing flames driven Dr. Hilly er from t home, each time with lies of li brary and personal effects. Mrs. C. H Sharp, the matron, also lost considerably of liou-:cbo:d goods and provisions. The building was among Iho first ever erected in Foray tta and wss not originally in’ ended for a female college. For more then thirty years, however, ib has been the property of a Board of Ttuitoo? as chartered college. Firet and last it hbs cafct from twenty to tbiity bonssnd dol lars. In 1871 and 1872 the kuHding was thoroughly repaired and renovated ut cost of abmt eight thousand dollars. It was built cf brick, three atcriee, and was lorge < acn^h to contain rooms far thirty boarders, recitation rooms and a spacious chapel. For many, many years it has stood, always under tho control of pious end learned men, annually sending forth a number of yonng ladies educated and aceomplisned. From the seaboard of Georitia to the mountains these graduates are dispersed, many doing the noble work of teaohing otheis. Thongh another building will bo rreot- ed at once, perhaps belter suited for school purposes than this one, yet the heart eaddena to think of the destruction of this bouse eo sacred ia memory to hundreds of our people. The work and irioor of years was destroyed in a brief hour or two. The building was insured for the sum of $6,000; $3,000 in the Sou:horn Mutual Company, of Athene, and $3.CC0 in the Georgia Home, of Co- Iambus. Thi? sum will suffice to erect another building ample for the pnrposee, and better adapted to the wants of the pchool. The echool will cot be suspended for a day, but Presi-ent Ashbury and his corps of teaobera will at once secure an other building end continue the exer cises.
