Telegraph & Messenger. THURSDAY MOKNING. OCT. 26. CloalffK E»rly To-Day- Wo were handed, yesterday, a Ji*t compmmg some forty of the moot prominent bn “° a “ hocM of this city, who agree to *••**•*' demo St ono o’clock this afternoon, in order to allow their employes to visit the Fair Grounds. Wo hope all will do it, and that to-dey msy be • gals day indeed. Fair Gronntie—Wednesday Evening. Thi, has been a lively and satisfactory day - tbs grounds. The attendanoe has been very mod. Yesterday the estimate at tho gate was seven thousand. To-day there have been about ton th<ir--"d on the grounds, and the moat eheerfaland well satisfied assemblage, I have aeen for a long time. After all, tho best sight of the whole la these intelligent and beautiful faces and well clad and graceful forme. It is a floe population we have in old Georgia, and we ought to be thankful for it Such a people aro bound to asaert tbamaelvea In doe time, though they may be the victim* of a temporary repres sion. We shell be a great people yet-no mat ter what atrategems of political devilment may bo set on foot againat us. This well dressed throng of ten thousand people scattered through these ample and magniddent grounds—crowd ing the taatefnl structure* of Central Park—all good natured and happy is worth travelling a hundred miles to see. I have been looking a UUle at the machinery department today, and will try to finish my ob- i. [rations to-morrow. There is much to (ee, and to me it ia gratifying to observe elegant ladias interesting themselves ao much in mo- .h.nieal achievement*. I do not know, after all, that oar women are not the moat practical part of the genus homo. Outside of the great machinery had three portable steam engines are contesting for so. premacy: J. 0. Hoadley A Co., of Lawrence, Hum, represented by Ur. Crockett, of this elty; W. E. Tanner Jk Go., Metropolitan Work*, Richmond, Vs., and H. A F. Blaney, of Z in Ot tilia, Ohio. Each of these manufacturer* are well represented. H. B. Brown Is the agent of the Metropolitan Works in this city, and drives all the machinery in the mechanical department with a forty horse power engine made by W. E. Tanner A Co. Mr. Crockett eaja Hoadley's Engine* are the heat. With one of these ho 1* driving Evart’e patent Shingle Machine*, and showing how shingles ean be sawed ont with a smooth sur. faoe, at the rate of fourteen thoneand a day. Mr. Crockett also shows his horse power—a very simple and effective contrivance at a cost of a hundred dollar*, anJ he claims that with foar negroes be pnt it on the gronnd, bnilt a shad and went to ginning ootton, all in on hour and a quarter. Among the numerous steam engines exhib ited, It Harris’ BoUry, which runs on tho prin- eipl* of a water wheel, the eteam being applied directly to the buckets of a two-foot wheel, un der a pressure of about eighty pounds to the inch. It is a very simple machine, ooeting a boat a hundred dollars to the horse-power, and works like a beaver. This is exhibited by the Brown Cotton Gin Company, of New London. The Findlay Brothers have erected * temple or pavilion on their own account and show three splendid stesm engines in operation—two up right and one horisontal of eight horse power. On* of these engines is running a Wheeler A Wilson sewing machine at a rate little slower then lightning. Three or fonr ootton preaes arc represented in the neighborhood—the Findlay anti-friction and Sehofield’a—which are screw presses, and the Smyth And Utley lever possesses. I will apeak of them to-morrow. Among the displays made by merchants on the second floor of the ball we notloed the fol lowing : W. A. Hopson A Co. have a very elegantly arranged stand, and show a stock of dress goods which will raise envy in the gentle bosoms of the belle*. In the eame line J. B. Bose A S. T. Coleman make a fine display. 8. Waxelbaam A Co. have tried themselves In the way of a grand oollectlon of embroideries, with marked aoooeas. Kendrick A Son, of Chicago, have a riob dis play of carpet*. J. U. Hull.rock Jr Oe., v>f IBS same place, ahow a case of fats. Guilford A HiU, of Mtoon, show a splendid colleotion of pianos and organs. Lndden A Bates, of Savannah, exhibit some richly orna- Tlic State .Vsrlonltnral Exposition The third day closed with cloudless skies and a balmy atmosphere, which drew immense crowds to the grounds in the afternoon to see Weston walk, and witness the balloon escca- tion. The great pedestrian is lithe, compact, and graceful in his physique, without an ounce of superfluous flesh, and withal has a ■ mlcnanee. He walked with great and rapidity, making his five miles in 58 Oarhart A Cord have a case of plated ware for the table, earpenter’e and joiner’s findings, and table and other entlery. John W. Burke A Co. era represented in a fine show of books and fancy goods in their line, indnding ingenions toys. Their toy steam enginoa iu operation arreat tho attention of many paaiiera. Young America Engine Company makes n display of their trophies of victory in many a eoat eat. The second floor is particularly noticeable for ill rich display of embroideries of every stylo and variety. Their nnmbcr is legion and a wealth of taale, skill and labor baa been ex pended on them. Oar space ia inadequate for even a meager catalogue of these entries and many of tho moat meritorious and elaborate ex hibit no name. They come from numerous oountie* and are worthy of the highest eulogium. They inolnde a wide range of articles from Afghans and Fenian ooven down to very small article*, and are in every oonoeivable stylo and character. There is amusement for many hours in examining and examlng this largo and splen did collection, which ineludea many hundreds of artiolea. Among the curiosities of foreign production to be seen on this floor is a caso exhibited by Mrs, Wo. B. Johnston, filled with delicate carv ings in ivory, stag-bom and wood, gathered during* continental tour In Europe. These are ao minute and delicate in their lines that they need to be examined throngh a magnify ing gists. Among them is a set of chessmen in ivory all of which oocld be contained in a homeopathists piU box. Another work of simi lar character is a card Ublo in mosaio and con structed of 7,000 pieces of wood. Floral Hall was crowded throughout the entire dsy, with the bounty and fashion of this section and presented an animated and beautiful scene. Between the two great halls tho United States Band discoursed excellent music—playing seve ral operatic pieces during the day, and halls and grounds resounded with the hum of thousands of voices. I am going to drop the more fancy part of tho display and examine tho machinery for a time. Col. Herbert Fielder. Oar readers will peruso with interest the brief sketch contained in to-day's paper, of the life and career of this estimable gentleman, whose name is prominently associated with tho next gubernatorial canvass. Tho TxLxaaarE -Urn Messenger is the organ of no individual for office, bnt It affords ns pleasure to enlighten the people as to the quali fications and antecedents of those from whom their future rulers may be chosen. Should it devolve upon our talented fellow townsman CoL Tho*. Hardeman, or Gen. Colquitt tho soldier and gentleman, or CoL Fielder, a self made man and gifted barrister, to be the stand ard bearer of the Democracy in the campaign against Bollock and Kadi cal corruption, we shall be equally content. In the hand of any ono cf these gentlemen, the destinies of Georgia will be safe for the next four yean. We are per sonally and intimately acquainted with CoL Fielder, and know him to be possessed of sterl ing integrity and a cultivated and superior in- **■?*■ I( nominated and elected, the people or Georgia would find in him a fearless advo- CAto And wis© Knd prudent executive. Jasrmt Scrairoa Cccut-Bj an order else- where published, it will be aeen, that the Fall Term of thi* court has been adjourned over to nine o clock, a. of Wednesday, the thir teenth day of December next. MiBr.iio.ES or Motet) Bichimm.—Two ereb known Confederate officers of Humphrey Marl Bhall'e command were married yesterday, to-wit) Col. Tbumas Johnson, a wealthy bacbelor, aged alxly, to Miss Lizzie Feters, niece of Supreme Judge Peters, and Dr. J. M. Woodfrd, tho tall surgeon with the flowing red hair and whiskers, to Mrs. Lydo Larne, daughter of Bev. John Holton.—Ko.tuckian. CoL Johnson has long been a traveler to Georgia, and ie well known in the State. About 5 r. XL, the inflation of the huge bal loon was completed, and aoon after it rose gracefully In tho air with it* female voyagenr to the height of several hundred feet drifting slowly awsy in the direction of the city. When over the densest portion of the grove in front of Floral Hall, the monster began to gravitate to wards the earth and finnaliy lodged amid the boughs of a lofty oak. The crowd rushed pell mell to the spot to as certain the fate of the dauntless aeronaut, amid the wildest oonfnsion and excitement There she hnng suspended in mid air unharmed, and apparently free from fright or agitation, few minntea sufficed to effect her release throngh tho agency of a ladder, and the sturdy arms of several individuals, who had clambered np tho trunk of the tree. The fair adventurer was reoeivedon terra firma again with enthnsi- nstic rounds of ApplAoso. After nightfall a splendid display of fire works terminated the evonta and pleasures of the day, investing with rare beanty and brilliancy the Grounds with their moving panorama of living objects. To^sy it is proposed to eloeo the stores cf the dty after one o’clock, and the regatta will doubtless draw vast multitudes. Who will say onr Fair is not a splendid success ? The Sale or Fools. To forestall misrepresentation or animadver sions from any source, we are authorized by General Colquitt to state that no betting has taken place, or will be tolerated on the grounds of the Georgia Agricultural Association, while tho exhibition continue*. On Thursday afternoon the exposition on the part of the State Society cloaca, bnt will be con- tinned for several day longer by other parties for the entertainment of the multitudes in at' ice. The sale of pools, therefore, as ad vertised, is In no wsy connected with the opera tions of the Executive Committee. We trust this will be satisfactory to thoeo who have been disposed to charge the Associa tion with participation in the "sporting ring,” which is an invariable accompaniment of all large popular gatherings. DzuanzsT A Woodbujt.—These gentlemen haves magnificent carriage repository on Broad way, New York, with a branch in the city of . A large nnmber of manufactories and workshops aro constantly employed in fill ing their orders, and keeping np the supply of vehicles which are offered for sale. Some of their carriages are gorgeously finished and fitted np, and are not to be excelled by any of the royal equipages of the old country. Their prices range from $200 to $400. Messrs. Woodruff A Demarest have on exhi bition at the Fair a large and splendid variety of baggies and other vehicles, constructed in the moat fashionable style and with the latest improvements. Hundreds of patrons through out the South can testify to the exoellence and durability of the work they turn out. Mr. Woodruff's homo is in Georgia, and ho is enti tled to great credit for the enterprise tnd tact displayed in the oonduct of his immense estab- iL Bead tho extensive advertisement of these gentlemen. The Soumwxsnnm IUileoad.—We are an thorized to say that the statement in our local column, yesterday, to the effect that this road was running neither extra trains, nor extra coach oe to its regular trains this week, is entire ly incorrect. And furthermore that the road has given every man, woman and child that has wanted to come to Macon this week ample op portunity of so doing. So far from there having been any passengers left behind, the trains, as we are informed, have not been uncomfortably crowded. The extra train is run to and from the Fair Ground for the special convenience of those who wish to come into or leave the city by it. THE GEOKtilA Fit ESS. A Mr. Holliday, of Hntchechnbbe, Alabama, ... -r •r», mi rront street, Columbus, Sunday night, by two negroes, who were ar rested. The first throngh passengers to Ecfanla from Coinmbns, via the Mobile and Girard, and Montgomery and Enfanla railroads, went throngh on Monday. The time is about five hours. Coinmbns is receiving cotton, this season, from Tallapoosa county, Alabama. We dip the following items from the Coinm bns San, of Tuesday: Death or Captais Bhadtoed.—The death of this young man, son of ex-Governor Bradford, of Maryland, occurred in Baltimore a few days ago. He, for several months, was the Provost Marshal of Augusts. He was well known by all Coinmbns people who were in Bichmond the earlier years of the revolution. Attacked nr Aitoflext.—Yesterday at 11 a. , as Mr. A. D. Brown, Sr., the well known and esteemed inventor, was working at his lathe in Goetehins’ Steam Planing Mill, ho was sud denly stricken with on apoplectio fit, to which he is subject. He fell forward on the lathe, catting his head in several places. For a time, it was thought ho was dead, and his family was sent for. So strong were the convulsions that it took several negro men to carry him to the express wagon in which he was conveyed to his residence, above the northern common. We have not sinoo beard from him. He is a broth er to the proprietor of the Brown House in Ma con. Mrs. Mabry, aged 80 years, died in Monroe county last Taeeday, on the old homestead set tled by hor husband, and where they had lived together nearly fifty years. The United States District Court commenced its fall session at Savannah, Monday morning. The following named persons were sworn in os grand jurors: Drury Bambo, Decatur county, foreman; W. W. Griger, Bryan; John B. Brown, Mnseogeo; David lteddisb, Appling; Albert Brown, Chat ham; JamesT. Gloover, Twiggs; B. F. Brnn- bury, Mitchell; Francis H- Massoy, Thomas; Blantin Hardeman, Jones; Jacob F. Fnghsley, Tattnall; Thomas Cawthorn, Upson, Thomas J. Davis, Crawford; David S. Bagley, Somter; Thomas J. Naylor, Chatham; Emannel Men der, Chatham; Frederick Sandrne, Chatham; Agrippa Whittle, Chatham: James L. Fabien, Chatham. The traverse jurors are as follows: J. F. Childs, Monroe county, foreman; W. W. Mnrphy, Jefferson; S. Kenan, Baldwin; Daniel Gardner, Bichmond; James A. Collins, Mitchell; Benjamin O. Davis, Fearce; Syrns ikmrSsM, Chatham; Obediah Johnson, Cof fee; Peter W. Reddish, Webster; Thomas 0. Morgan, Bryan; W. H. Jernlgan, Clay; L. T. Whitcomb, Chatham. The Savannah Republican, of Tuesday, says letters were received in that city, on Monday, stating that serious disturbances between the people of Liberty county and tho negroes had ocenrred on Taylor’s Creek, and that the latter wore marching on Walthonrville. It also stated that troops had been called for, which latter report is discredited by the News, of same date, on the authority of the Federal commander at Savannah. From the Savannah News, of Tuesday, we get the following: The DeMostmolus Attais—Fcbtheb Fab- xicclabs Di ins Mattes.—From Major Arthur, commanding a detachment of United States troops, which were dispatched on yesterday to the scene of the recent troubles on the DeMont- mollin plantation to investigate the matter, we learn that the difficulty was not of snet^s serious nature os was at first supposed. It appears from the statement of the Major, that the negroes who did the shooting went to the plantation armed with legal doenments issued from a negro justice in Blnffton, for the pro pose of dispossessing Mr. DeMontmoUin, and meeting with resistance, fired upon the whites, as stated yesterday, wounding them alL Mr. DeMontmoUin and Kent are bnt slightly wound ed. Mr. Slyer, however, is supposed to be mor tally injured. The white gentlemen were oonvey to Blnfficn, and are now under arrest, in pursuance of pa pers from the negro magistrate, and until their release is effected, a correct history of the mat ter is hardly possible. The Southern Recorder says an alarming epidemic has broken ont in that city, which ia remarkable because of tha mysterious novelty of the disorder. "Its first symptom is trith- drairal jrom the Good Templirt, after which a certain unsteadiness of gait, flash about tho eyes, apparent dizziness of held, an air of gen eral dissatisfaction and sneaky expression of face supervene.” On proposition for a town subscription of v 15,000 to the Hilliard Institute and Honroo rcrna.e College, at Forsyth last Saturday, 67 affirmative, and 9 negative votes were cast. We quote, as follows, from the Monroe Ad vertiser of Tuesday: Ixfobtaxt Judicial Actios.—Upon tho pet: tion of Messrs. Wiley Fleming, Wm. J. Dumas, n H. ZeRncr, John T. Crowder, Guilford G. Hynt, O. S. Woodward, W. B. Meek, J. V. Childs, J. H. Evans, and John Shannon and others, considered by Judge Green in Cham bers, an order has been issued restraining for the present, Moses Potts, Ordinary, Stephen B. Potts,Treasurer, Mr. Swann,TaxCollector,!frcm paying any of the outstanding county script in the hands of W. L. Lumpkin, B. Pye A Son, and Wm. McCommon, and also prohibiting the Or dinary from paying any further sum of money as bonus to secure protection for the notes of the county. The **ma order also prevents Messrs. Pye, Lampkin and McCommon from taking tnj steps to enforce collection. The de fendants are ordered to show cause in Corot, on the 20th of November next, wby a permanent writ of prohibition should not issue as prayed for. The order was granted on the I8ih inst Bobbzbt aso Absox.—On Tuesday night last, the grocery store of Mr. Willi* Russel, at Gra- baU, Jones county, was plundered, and the building, with the remaining contents, fired and burned. The goods stolen were found in pos- seesiGn of a couple of negroes, the next day, one of whom was shot and killed for resisting on effort to arrest. The other negro, named Green Mayfield, alias Norris, was arrested, bnt after wards escaped, and is still at large. Green has long been considered a desperate character in Monroe and Butts, and many of our people will rejoice to leant that he has been bagged. Chicago ivd the South.—The Rome Com mercial states that in 1866 a gentleman wrote from Georgia to a minister in Chicago, request ing his assistance in soliciting funds in that city to rebuild one of the Georgia churches, burnt by Sherman's vandals, and received the follow- ing in response: "I am at this time a minister in the Old School Presbyterian Church, and D sent me your petition that I might try to get some thing for your aid m rebuilding yonr church. But I had no heart to do anything with it. / fear the people mould rather re-bum you than to aid you. Small, sadly small, ia the Christian charity in this part of tho world. Fanaticism seems to reign and riot, while hatred and mro- derons malice would hold still their bloody car- nlvaL" Letters for ft in, Young, Albany, and William Granlro, Americas, are held for postage in the Savannah office. The impression prevails at Savannah that Robb, the present Collector of Customs there, will lose his official head, on November 1st, and that Honorable Joshua HiU, and other Georgia Radicals have named one James Atkins of Atlanta, as his successor. Last Sunday was a rather lively day in Borne. There were two marriages, one first-class fight, numerous small skirmishes, and a “new depart ure” for the West, by several emigrants who will wish they hadn’t, considerably, before this time next year. Daring the course of a friendly talk at Borne last Saturday night, between Mr. Goo. Rogers and Mr. Robinson, the latter had the thickness of his sknll tested by a bar of iron held in Bog- a’ hand. The Borne Courier, of Tuesday, says: The Ku-Klux Betobe the United States Dxbtbiot Couet.—We understood that the par- tree who were so indecently zealous before our last grand jroies, to get bills against the siUy boys in Livingston District, for their drunken frolic, have at last succeeded in having the United States Grand Jury, at Atlanta, to find bills; and now the yonng men who so thought lessly engaged in that unfortunate frolic, will have to be outcasts and fagitives in a strange land, or brave the horrors of a Northern prison. Tho Atlanta Son, of yesterday, says: One Explanation Suggested.—Some of the friends of Gov. BnUock suggest that Mr. Kimball has overreached and deceived him; that ho re lied on Kimball’s financial ability and accommo dated him with bonds to a large amount, which ought not to have left the Govemors's bands— relying on him to be able to take ont of “soak" and return them to tho Executive office, if they should ever be called for, end that he cannot now come to time. This is suggested. Tlie Savannah Fair, on the 33d of November. We extract the following from the New York Tribune, of the 21st: THE BEST “SEW DFFABliinE." The Industrial Association of Georgia' (newly organized) will bold an Exposition com mencing on the 23d of November, at Savannah, the most flourishing of Southern cities, Atlanta possibly excepted. Tho sctnsry of this Associ ation ia Colonel H. D. Capers, who won his rank in some of the hardest battles of onr late Civil War—of course, on the Rebel side. From his address announcing the Exposition, we quotes*, follows: ‘The many embarrassments under which the friends of this enterprise have labo.cd, assure them that there are those among ns who, satis fied with their present surroundings and ill- disposed to b* disturbed in their reveries among tfiA raaoI 1 Aotiono of ilio yfiSl* iwnil from what they are pleased to style ‘innovations upon es tablished customs.’ For such, we have no word of harsh criticism. Their contentment is a suf ficient reason for the exhibition cf the utmost charity, and, if onr department of fossils can offer them any entertainment, we will provide for them while wo aro meeting the demands of a moro useful and progressive class of oar fel low-citizens. The Industrial Association looks to this latter class for its support, and, in cher ishing a proper respect for the memories of the past, would take in a full realization of the present, and give every aid toward tho accom plishment of an advanced progress in the future. “Inspired, then, with the same spirit which, from the ashes of car cities and the humiliation of defeat, has raised our proud Commonwealth to a position of prosperity and comparative in dependence, we of Savannah, the commercial metropolis of Georgia, would join hands with our brethren in this onward inarch to a greater prosperity than has yet been realized. “Onr Exposition is designed alike for the re flection of progress in every department of in dustrial life among the people of Georgia, and among those from abroad whose commercial relations we desire not only to cultivate, bnt to retain. The material interests of the city of Savannah and of onr State, the cultivation and the encouragement of a free interchange and exchange of opinions and benefits between the producer and consumer, are objects we desire “The city of Savannah, with tha advantages of her geographical position and her present and prospective communications with the great Weal, under the sway of wise legislation and prudent municipal regulation, and, above all, recognizing the protecting care of a merciful Providence, whose wisdom is above the specu lations of finite creatures, has prospered and continued to prosper until now her commercial relations with the world have given to her a prominent position in the front rank of Ameri- can seaports. “In fostering this prosperity, the Industrial Association would encourage in onr midst and invites the establishment of manufacturing and mechanical enterprises of every kind. Oro facilities for importing and exporting, and oro ready access to the inexhaustible mines of wealth in the interior of oro great country, should make of oro city an emporium not alone of trade and commerce, bnt a place in which the ring of the anvil, the hnm of machinery, the active spindle, and the busy loom, shall all unite in a grand chorus, eulogistic of oro enter prise and prophetio of a great future.” Knowing nothing of Col. Capers’ polities, we presume he votes what in Georgia is callod the “Conservative” or “White Man’s” ticket; and yet, on the strength of the above address, we pronounce him admirably reconstructed, and fit to take a freeman's part in directing the Na tion’s policy and impelling her on the path of progress and well-being. We urge onr Northern manufacturers and artisans to be liberally rep resented at the Georgia Exposition, believing that their own interest and that of the whole country will thereby be promoted.
