A full attendance is deaired. Cujtoed Axdzbson, Chairman. Telegraph State Bulletin. The Georgia State Fair for 1871 will open in Macon, Monday, October 23d, and dose on the Friday following. Extraordinary preparations are in progress to make this Fair the most ex- tensive and popular Industrial Exposition which has ever been witnessed in the Southern States.

Waum Weathek.—Tho temperature ou Sun day and Monday, was eighty and above—nn usually warm for the season. CnicAno was visited by a hurricane ou Suudsy which prostrated burnt walls and blew tbo fire brands about furiously, but fortunately a heavy rain had fallen jirt previously and no further damage was done. Tuz first trial l>y jury in Romo occurred on the 13lh ult., and was of a woman for larceny of diamonds. Tho trial lasted two days—the jury wero out sixteen minutes and returned a verdict of guilty. Shot and Hugo.—The men caught plunder- log in Chicago and shot and imng on the spot, were Barney AaroD, Win. Tracey, Jack Daley, James Monday, Dutch Heinrich and Geo. Bulls, all notorious New York rowdies. The Euie Relief Train ran from Now York toBoffalo, 122 miles, in 12 hours and 23 min- ntea—thirty-four milon an hour, stoppages in cluded. Actual miles per hone :!8.(!5. The train contained 11,0«a) packages, valued at up ward* of $100,000. New York Finances.—The tax lists in New Y'orkthis year foot up 411,613,012 against $11,- 283,076 last year, alien tho taxes bad to bo kept up in order to meet a hcrilago of floating debt left by tiio Republican party. Upon Ibis re duced rovenno tlio canal has lieen kept iu much lietter repair aud a largely increased incouio has accrued from it upon reduced tolls. What ever may bo charged to Tammany thieving, tho Doiuocratio administration of tho Stale finances has displayed marked vigor and economy. Santo Domingo Again.—Tho New York Tri bune announces tbo rovival of tbo San Do mingo annexation schcnio again in full force aud virtue. Well informed circles report that tho treaty of annexation will be submitted to Congress early in the session, shorn of all do mand for appropriations. “Private persons and corporations'' have agreed to pay off the debt of the republic, which is regarded as amounting to a million and a half of dollara. A heavy speculation, and a large ring doubtless nndorliea this movement. Disraeli UroN Tint Queen.—Tho London correspondence of tho World reports Mr. Diva elU's words in relation to tho Qncen precisely as telegraphed, and charges the Gladstone press and ministry with |a guilty knowledge that they are administering tho government in the name of a monarch who is no longer capable of author izing their acts. This speech was made by Mr. D. at a harvest festival, at a luncheon, in the presence of a large number of people, and on the occasion of a toast proposed by bim to the health of Her Majesty. Tho words were tele graphed to London and producod a panic there. How the Wooden Pavements Stood tde Test.—A Chicago dispatch mentions as a no- Uoeable fact and one of immense importance in the rebuilding of Ibe city, the almost perfect eondition in which tho fire has left tho Nichol son pavement. Tho damage is so trifling as not to be worthy of mention. Miles of pave ment on the north side are almost nnscorched and perfectly free of debris, and even in the south division where both sides of the street were lined with lofty brick and alone buildings, there is aeareely a point where a carriage may not be driven Ihrongb the streets. Indeed, ex cept where tho buildings were blown up, or partially blown np in the endeavor to atop the progress of the flimes, tho ruins have almost invariably fallen npon their own sites. At points where the pavements wero burned at ail, the fire only charred on the outside, and it is a question whether the process to which they were subjected will not add to thoir durability. Unlcckt.—Theodore Thomas' famous or chestral troupo was to have opened Crosby’s Open House, at Chicago, Monday night, the SHh insk—the night after tbo great liro, and every seat had been taken. The opera bouse had been refitted at a cost of $S0,000. The troupe arrived Sunday and were stopping at the Sherman House. They lost all their baggage, instruments and valuable music. Thomas him self bad a narrow escape from losing his life. While endeavoring to save some valuable pa per* from bis room, bis retreat by the southern atairway was cut off, and not knowing which direction to go, ho was wandering about the halls in the heat and smoke until rescued by a fireman who had been on tho roof of tho build ing. That evening was also to witness Mrs. Gen. Lander's first performance at Ilooley'a Opera Honse. The poor women lost all her baggage, including her valuable wardrobe and diamonds. Mr. Ilooley, who boarded with his family, at tha Briggs, also lost everything, with the exception of a change of wearing apparel for the children. Cotton Fiauaaa The figures by Sunday's telegrams make the following exhibit: At all the port* j 43,486 Interior 27,040 In Liverpool 47ROOO American tfixat 33.000 Indian aflxat 623 379 provided with a special car for tho colored peo ple, as comfortable as any car in the train: and there was not the first reason for a fast in this case, except a disposition on the part of the negress in question to bo ill-mannered and ob trusive. Where whites and blacks ate nearly equal in numbers, and the climate is warm, it is not agreeable to tbo former to ride in cars crowded promiscuously by the population at Urge. The scent is a little overpowering, and aside from what the Tribune calls “prejudice of color,” the arrangement would bo impractica ble, notwithstanding tho civil rights bill. Tbo colored peoplo compose a very small minority in New York, and occasionally may bo seen in the street cars, bat very rarely in the omnibuses. The cases are not parallel. There can l>e no fairer plan than that which has been adopted in Georgia—separate can of equal comfort, con- venienee and cleanliness, from which intrusion by either color, respectively, U impartially maintained. The No Candidate Scheme.—Wo print to day a new and startling proposition from the St. Louis Republican—to whip General Grant with an opposition Radical candidate. It is not a new plan of contest in a desperate emer gency. Everybody has beard of “fgluing the dezil with fire”—and the Republican’s argu ment U to show that this is better than being whipped. Doubtless it would be confuting to the sable birds and birds of prey *ho now rule the roost in ths Southern States. Doubtless they would flutter and croak. Feradventnre the whites of the South, who now suffer under ban of proscription on account of “color, race and previous condition," could find greater favor with an administration they helped to elect, than in one elected in spite of them. Doubtless such an administration, compelled to look to tho Southern whites for support, could well afford to dispense with martial law aud all the other contrivances for putting the whites under feet cf the blacks. Fersdventure, that stroke, if successful, would be a more ef fectual death-blow to all tbo negro supremacy schemes than even the election of an Avowed Democrat, who wonld only ooneentrato against himself a compact Radical opposition majority in Congross. I’eradventure, in all the ends of deliverance and liberty the South could profit moro by a thorough rnptnro of the Radical party, than she possibly could do, undor existing circumstances, by the mere defeat of Grant. But the proposition is impracticable in point of fact. Many will not recognizo the necessity of it, and moro will insist on a square dofeat with a straight out candidate than in tbo kind of victory suggested by tbo Republican. THE GEORGIA 1'ItE.VV. Macon seems to be entirely out of the frost belt. Athena had a killing visit, last Thursday, and on the same day Bainbridge was similarly honored. The annual meeting of the stockholders of the Southeastern Railway will be held at A then", to-morrow. A president, vice Major Campbell Wallace, will be elected, and the route from Athena to tho point of intersection with the Air Line Road seleeted. The distance from Athens to tho nearest point on that road is 37 miles. Mr. B. E. Russell has retired from the Bain- bridge Son, and in connection wiih Mr. W. C. Jones will hereafter conduct the Argus, which is to be a semi-weekly instead of a weekly issue, as at present. At the election last December for Represen tative in the Legislature from Haralson county, there waa a tie between the Democratic and Radical candidates, but at an election held last week, Jeff Head, Democrat, beat Hutchinson, Radical, 47 votes. Mr. Joseph Roberts, one of the most vener able and esteemed residents of Brunswick, died last Wednesday night Mr. Warren A. Fuller was crowned with Al- dermanic honors at Brunswick last Taesday, by 217 votes to 133 for M. L. Mershon. The Columbus Enquirer, of Sunday, mikes this centre shot: The papers in the South that have been ag itating against the “new departure” profess to believe that the results of the late Northern elections, and what they call the refusal of the Now York Democrats to “depart” have killed the movement Very well. And now good policy—inseparable from common sense—re quires that Huy should “dry up.” CoL Avery, of the Atlanta Constitution, who was down here last week to inspect our Fair Grounds, was immensely pleased. Hear him: I have been delighted with tbe new Fair Gronnds here. Macon has surpassed herself in tbe beautiful creation she so suddenly and mag ically evoked into existence. FUNERAL INVITATION. The friends at d acquaintances of Mr. John Xo Eeszue are invited to attend hie funeral from hie late teeidence in Keet Macon THU (Toesday) MOUSING at 1U o'clock. Times Violent. Affairs do not move with tho equanimity thoy used to maintain “whon you and I wero boys togothcr.” Tho burning, drowning, storming, flooding, stealing, raining, lighting, i^vinilling, drinking, earthquaking, volcanoing, tidal wav ing, swearing, freezing and murdering, aro all moro violent and cruel than thoy used to bo. When wo wero boys, a case of murder in the papers would sot our gramlwotliors to rubbing their spectacles and reading and sighing l>y tbe hour together. If a child wrs burnt in a house, or a family drowned in u freshet, or a stage up set down an embankment, it waa food for mol sru'bolly talk for a fortnight. But look at things now I Tho Telegeai'U has had little other bnsineBs for the past ten years than to tell of awful violences by flood and field. Ita record is a long catalogue of death and destruc tion by wholesale. Daring Ibis dccado wo have hid violent and bloody doatbs by the million—of whole regions laid waste fcy liro and sword— great cities given to tho flames—wliolo countries devastated. But this, you will ssy, was Ibe fate of war. The operations of nature, however, seem to have sympathised with tbo violence of men. What frightful earthquakes—what furious storms and tempests—wbat desolating floods have swept over tho earth with a frequency and destruotive- ness unparalleled in provions history. The newspaper scarcely escapes a day, without some fierce and gloomy record of this sort in some quarter of tbe world. And without reprehensi ble human agency what storms of fire and de struction have been sweeping: the groat West (or tbe post fortnight I Tbo telegrams of to-day report these fires growing worse, and say that 1,200 victims have perished in the flames. Then in tho far East, terrible floods and storms are reported on the China coast, overflowing 10,000 square miles of the country. These are tbe days of wrath and violence. The fury of man began tbo work and now it seems to be carried on by tbe angry forces of nature. We plead for a little more gentleness all round. Ten years of Radicalism pervading the whole political, so cial and natural world ought to bo enough. Let ns have peace. 161,183 17,575 365,000 20,000 310,015 1,300,S05 1,083,775 Now, bow grandly these a till further illustrate the floating power of India cotton I Observe that the stock excess over last year is shown by these figures to be 217,030 bales; and 313,3S4 bales of that excess are made np by the in creased floating power of India ootlon over what it was last year I If Indian cotton were not quite so rampant in its huoyanoy there would bo a short stock and growing shorter. But India never falters—she never lacks. No matter whether you in America make any oot- ton or not, India can keep np the cotton excess. Then it is wonderful with what steadiness and owslancy India floats—she floats this week 623.379 bale*—last week 610,717—the week before 717,332, and ao on. She never tirea of floating. And she floats very particularly, too. erica floats small and always in round tram- ®6t India ia particular to the bale.

The man was scrupulous even to 6} oente. “Float Cuss Cana."—The New York q ri . bone extracts from the Angaria Chronicle an aotount of the expulsion of a negroes from the ladies'car on the Georgia Central Railroad, and says it is Iho kind of war which the Demo, cratic parly is fighting, and “when the chivalry come to their own again, tho foot of the train hand Will be, so to speak, on the neck of tho negroes in every ladiea* car in the whole happy laud." Every passenger train in Georgia ia November Magazines. tfcRiBNEn is gorgeous in the way of illustra tions. The frontispiece is a portrait of tbe late Charles Scribner—tbo lamented head of the house. “Forty-aoven Days of Peril” is an il lustrated tale of a traveler lost in the wilds of Yellowstone. The gigantic operations of the government at Hell Gate are minutely described in a long and profusely illustrated article of twenty pages. “Low Life in Nature" is another illustrated article upon insect life. The serial stories are “Wilfred Cumbermode,” “The Right Not to Vote,” “Tbe Two Mrs. Scudamores,” and the remaining contents are the usual edi torials, and several poems and tales by well known writers. This is a splendid namber. Tnx Galaxt has for frontispiece a picture of Herbert Spencer. Tbe sorial papers continued are popular fallacies—the Eustace Diamonds, and Ought we to Visit Her. General Imboden contributes Rome reminiscences of Lee and Jackson. Gideon Welles contributes tbo first of a aeries ou tbo capture of New Orleans. Jus tin Macorthy writes npon the two Newman brothers. Tha editorial departments aro full as usual. Grunt's I’rocIniuHUon. A Washington dispatch in the Cornier Journal of Saturday, says: The Ku-klux proclamation to-day turns out to bo a most important step in a new policy to be pushed toward tbe South. It ia now kDown positively that for more than aix weeks, or ever since the Ku-klux Committee returned from tbe South, the administration has bad under con sideration a policy to t>e enforced, not only against the so-called Kn-klux organization, but in the administration of federal civil affsirs in the South. There was no substantial difference of opinion among tbe President and the Cabinet and tbe leading Representatives who favored this new order of things, except as to tbe time when it should bo enforced, and that acooonts for tbo delay until after the October elections. mastiai. law. Tbe proclamation is, therefore, bnt the fore runner of martial law and tbe suspension of the writ of haboattorpwtM provided by tbe fourtn section of the act of April 20, which says that any Ku-klux organization or combination shall be deemed a rebellion against the government, the limits of which shall lie prescribed by proc lamation commanding tbo insurgents to dis perse before the privileges of the writ of habeas corpus are suspended. WHOLESALE ARRESTS. A prominent minister of the Gospel, and also a leading Republican, stated to-day that the ar rangements of the civil and military for whole sale arrests of members i f the Ku-klux Klan Dad been perfected, and that the country would be surprised, if tbe proclamation were not heedtd, by tbe arrest of well-known Southern WAR AGAINST CAtrET J1AGGEBS. Inasmuch as it is averred that outrages in the South are provoked by the corruption of office holders and tbeir plunder of tbe people, it ia tbe intention cf the President to begin warfare against all corrupt Federal officials and to in vite tho co-operat ion of all g-iod Republicans for tbe displacement of bad State officials — This is to go hand-in-band with the enforce ment of the Kn-klnx law, until it is stated that there is a lasting peace in tbe Soath. Yon enter a gateway something like that of Oglethorpe Park, in Atlanta, and as you enter you have a beautiful view of tbe grounds. No description that I have seen does justice to the splendid arrangement. , In front of the gate, on the inside, is a half mile park enclosed, swarded and with a rare forest of trees. On the left, the river meanders, the natural boundary of the gronnds. On the sides and on the opposite point of tbo park, which has a broad drive around it, tbe building are erected*, all visible, all fronting the park, and exquisitely and artis tically arranged. Tbe whole scene, park, forest, drives, winding river and tho fringe of ornate buildings of various sizes, colors and adorn ments, forming a beautiful picture, in which tho finest natural lovlinoss, the most perfect taste, and the most thorough art are superbly blended. Tho death of CoL IV. F. Ferrell, of Romo, on Friday night, is announced by the papers of that place. Tho champion bcnzinisls live in Sumter county. They muster just six in number, and, on last Thursday drank just eight bottles of gin and each carried an extra bottle borne to drink on the road. Tbo “Auicricns Cotton Factoiy" is a slow coach, verily. It is Ibreo years old, but hasn’t done any work. The Sumter Republican, of Saturday, says: Thursday night a kerosene lamp exploded in tbe servani'd room, at the residence of CoL W. A. Maxwell, in this city, sotting tbe clothing of a negro woman Darned Busan, employed as a cook for the family, on fire. Bbe ran from the kitchen iuto the house, all in flames, and made tho tour of three rooms and tbo ball twice, sot ting a bed on fire in ono of them, before the flames could bo extinguished. Tbe flames were smothered out by Mrs. Maxwell and Mr. Jobn D. Carter, both of whom had their hands severe ly burnt. Tbo woman’s clothes were burnt al most entirely off and her person dreadfully burnt, front aud rear. Bbe is under treatment of Dr. J. 1L Hinkle and is easy, but bor wounds are so severe it is scarcely jirobablo she can sur vive. Tho partridge crop of Randolph county is very large this season. We may mention, in cidentally, for the information of our friends down there, that we are remarkably fond of that particular bird. One of the irrepressible Smith family had one of bis arms broken and the other badly sprained last Wednesday night, at Columbus, by being thrwn from a wagon. The steamship General Barnes arrived at Sa vannah from New York on Thursday morning at seven o'clock, discharged upwards of nine thousand packages of merchandise, and took on board seventeen hundred and twenty-seven bales of cotton and two hundred and forty-fonr packages of merchandise, and sailed at six o’clock Friday evening—occupying only thirty- five hours. Daring the past year the Savannah police made 2,824 arrests—S03 more than the previous year. Fourteen hundred and seventy-three were whites, and 1,351 negroes. There are eleven houses of ill fame, and a total of 263 courtesans, in Savan nah—all of which facts we gather from Chief of Police, Anderson’s, annual report Up to Saturday, there had been 55 liquor, and 132 dray licenses issued in Augusta. Tbe thieves of Augusta—who, by-the-by, are universally conceded to be tbe meanest in the world—have organized a syndicate and are bull ing the kerosene market by stealing the oil from the lamps used on the outskirts of the city. They sell it for whisky. The Chronicle and Sentinel, of Sunday, says: Colored Baptist Semin ary.—Tho Georgia Republican says that the Baptist Theological Institute, Rev. Joseph T. Robert, LL. D., Principal, for the training of colored ministers, and those who expect to engage in the ministry, will be regularly opened on Monday morniDg next, October 16th. We learn that arrange ments have been made to board and lodge stu dents from tbe oountry at very low rates, or to fnnusb them lodging to a limited extent free, where they prefer to board themselves. Tho Lumpkin (Stewart county) voters went it brash for the proposition to subscribe $10,000 to the stock of the Bainbridge, Columbus and Cuibbort railroad, at tbe election last Saturday; 110 votes were polled, 103 of which number were for subscription. The unknown man who fell down the steps of a private house, at Savannah, on the 5th inst, and fractured hia skull, from which he died next day, turns out to be Chas. C. Young, of Rox- bury. Mass., late a member of Battery H, 3d U. S. Artillery, who bad just been discharged from tbe Federal garrison at Fort Pulaski. Wo clip tbe following from tbe Savannah Republican, of Sunday: Death on Shipdoard.—Miaa Carrie Monroe, of Boston, known as tbe “Fat Girl," died at sea, on board tbe steamship Virgo, of disease of tbo heart, and was buried atsea, on Thursday last, Capt Bnlkiey reading the burial servieee of the church. This remarkable girl was nine years of ago, and weighed nearly 400 pounds. Sbe, with her mother, and an agent. D. E. Prescott, were passengers on board tbe Virgo, intending to ex hibit at tbe several fairs in Georgia, in connec tion with a cage of wild animals. On Thursday morning about six o’cioek she was discovered dead, lying on the floor of her state room, hav ing died sometime during tbe night, of heart disease. The body conld not be kept, and it was deemed expedient to bory it in tbe ocean, which was done as above stated. ‘ Partcrition Without Pain.”—A little work with this title, by Dr. iL L. Holbrook, editor of tbe Herald of Health, is another work whose excellence surpasses our power to oommencL He shows the essential hentihfulncss of child birth, by citing examples, that painless parturi tion is poseible, through a healthful preparatory regimeo, dej endent chiefly on tbe Fruit Dietsys- tem. Ia important surgical operations, the first care of the best surgeons ia to prepare the con stitution of the patient, sometimes aix months before an operation, to stand the shock; tie criminal neglect of those approaching tho most portent natural physiological operation, is lkingly in contrast The study of such books as this should be the first duty of married per sons, wise suggestions to the hnsband as well as the wife being included iu it It is plainly and popularly written—if wo except tbe sentenoe inotnslatet,” which surprises us as from 25 ^nter-aud cost but a dollar.

A correspondent of one of the New York papers who waa in Chicago tbe day after the fire, relates the following story concerning the fate of two incendiaries whose punishment came under his own observation. He says: Being eanght in the act of setting fire to some building, he was conducted to the treo. The crowd thinks ordinary hanging too lenient a death, so it is determined to suspend the poor wretch by tho feet. He is, therefore, pinioned around the arms, the rope being meanwhile fastened to hia feet. As this is done the un happy wretch begs that ho may be allowed to die by strangulation. This is not allowed. The other end having been passed over the bough of tbe tree, he is tripped off his feet and hauled up feet first. When his head is about three feet from the ground the end of the rope is fastened ronnd the trunk of the tree. Some fiend, notoontent with this, raises a huge stone, and dashes it with all his might at the bead of the hanging man. It was a good aim, for the nose is eoeu to be broken. Others participate iu Ibe apart aud soon the head is not distin guishable, but ia one mass of gore and pulp. This ia mob brave sport that the dull thud sound ia.heard as each stone is flung, while the narrator passed down the street. In Halstead street a youth about sixteen had been caught kindling a Are, with the intent of spreading the flames through the city. When last seen by Mr. Boatman, he had one arm completely wrenched out of the socket, and waa then being conducted to the place of execution.

THE GEORGIA HOME INSURANCE CO., Of Columbus, Georgia Incorporated IS59 Capital and Amo(n $191,959 55 Uutouchod by the Chicago and other disasters, continues to furnish indemnity against loss by lire on all insurablo property at adequate rates. J. RHODES BROWNE, President D. F. WILLCOX, Secretary. Mayor's Office, Macon. ) October 10,1871. f On next Monday, ths 16th inst, the Halls and Rooms a; Central City Park will all be ready for the reception of any and all articles designed for exhi bition at the approaching State Fair, and if the quantity and quality of the contributions are at all in proportion to the rooms which have been pro- K red for their display, the exposition must and will a grand one. And will Macon be satisfied to stop with tha most beautiful Park, and the fiuest Exhibition Halls in the South? In this particular we are fin-shed and complete. But it is one thing to build and arrange,for a Fair, while it is quite another to fill np and properly utilize the space to profit and advantage. If the work shop, machinery halls, store houses, studios and parlors of our Ma con people alone, are made to contribute as liber ally to this enterprise as they should do, we will present a display alike creditable to Macon and the State. Especially should this be the case in regard to the many fine paintings and other rare specimens of art and taste owned and cherished by the ladies and gentlemen of Macon. Let everything of inter est and merit be brought out. It is only too well known that two of the most interesting Fairs ever held in Georgia were the direct result of extraor dinary, wide awake, energetic local effort. But nothing can be done without the pride, the will and the work. Let everything, from the pet bird and flower, to the steam engine, be brought out. There is scarcely a boy orgirl in Macon, perhaps, but who could contribute something that would interest some other boy or girl, and so in regard to every individual. Premiums aro offered for almost everything, and where a neglect or oversight has occurred a situa- ble reward will attach to any article of merit which may bo exhibited. The merchant, the manufac turer, the artist, all can bo benefited by an adver tisement growing out of an expose of their busi ness at the Georgia State Fair. No better adver tisement can be nude. To the ladies I appeal, with trust aud confidence, that they will make Flo ral Hall what it deserves to be on tho morning of the 23d instant—a picture aud a charm. Much time and money has been spent in preparing the grounds and buildings, now let us complete tho work by pre senting the largest and finest display ever made on a similar occasion. Let the most beautiful and in teresting portion of every man's business and eveiy lady's parlor be moved down to the Park lor one week, and there be placed in competition with whatever may come from abroad, and it will afford us a week of rare interest aud recreation, and in thus pieasing our guests we shall compensate our selves, The following ladies aro kindly requested to meet at the Park ou next Tuesday evening, tho 17th in stant, to act as a committee to superintend tbe ar rangement of such articles as may bo sent to Flo ral Hail for exhibition. Without some system and concert of action on the part of the ladies, this, the most intoroeting feature,of all Fairs, will fail with us to bo a success.

Tho following business bouses have been selected to wait upon other business men of Macon and urge them to give their time and influence to this enier- E rise for three or four days. Let each business ouse in Macon exhibit something—if it be nothing but a show case in which somebody else can ex hibit some article of interest and merit. Two or three days of active effort will place everything in proper order and condition to be tamed over to the Executive Committee on their arrival here next Monday. And it must be distinctly understood that the municipal authorities of Macon have noth ing whatever to do with the control or manage ment of the Fair. Tho President and Executive Committee of the State Society have entire con trol of xt. The city authorities have only to look after and tiko care of the financial department. Hence the importance of making it a great success.
