Of these, no leas than fifty flnehorses are already on the spot, and they will ooatinui' to come in daily from all parts of the country. The dis play of cattle, embracing- balls, milch cows and heifers of the purest and most celebrated breeds, bids fair also to be very large aud inters .ting. Mr. Hern- man, of Baltimore, will be on hand with the very choicest specimens from his pas tures, and other eminent stock .fanciers intend to be represented.

Near the river, and between Premium Hall and tho Grand Stand, a new and commoilkms exhibition building is well advanced to completion, designed for the wares of New York merchant princes. These have already commenced to ar rive, an I will form an attractive feature in the exhibition. Tho flooring of the Machine Hall, like wise, has been finished, and all of the buildings have received new coats of paint and whitewash, and look bright snd inviting to the eye.

We were not a little surprised to learn that in the article upon the young men of Mercer University published yester day. in speaking of the welcome extended to them by all classes of the community, the playful remark that even the yonng s of the "Wesleyan nunnery" were among the number, should have given of fense to some of the friends of that insti- tution. The writer disclaims all intention of wounding the feelings of the patrons and officers of this excellent seminary, but on the contrary, meant to pay it the high est possible compliment.

Wf find the following in the Advertiser and Republican, of Tuesday: Fatal Escorsnx with a Dnnaino t-Two ,Yobho Men Shot and Killed— No Citm* Assiojnro.—Mrs. R. A. Hardee of this city is in receipt of a letter from C. L. Hill. Esq., an attorney at law in Hearne, Robert ion county, Texas, in the coarse of which he informs her of the killing of her two brothers, Benjamin and James. The young gentlemen, with whom Mr. Hill says he was acquainted, on or ahont the 3d of September, were the lienrers of a letter to a man named G. W. Powell, a notorious desperado. James had the note, and noon delivering it to the man to whom it ms ail Iresaed, he became enraged, probably it the con tents, of wlueh..how' ver. we are not pos itive, as t ! • li tter of Mr. Hill does not state that facts and im todbtely drawing a pistol, h« shot the two young ra -n dead. Neither of them upu.i%red to appre hend any Uffienlt.v. as laith w ire unarmed. All the circum-tt moos point to foul play.

The wri ter states that if Powell is ever captured he will certainly suffer the extreme pen alty of the law. The two young men who were killed were Georgians, railed in Burke county, and were nephews of ex- Governor H-vachel V. Johnson. The above is all the information we have of this dastardly and cold-blooded mnrder. as the letter of Mr. Ilill contains only the hare statement, which we Iiave given aliove. without detailing particulars.

Lon3>on, Octobey 8 Bishop Reinkens, of tbe old CatholicChnrch, toe lay took the oath of allcgii-nce to tbe Emperor, in cus tomary formula with exception of a "re servation of first allegiance to the Pope, which was omitted. attributed partially to the hesitation caused by the news from ? .- Ian and Paris, and partially to his se'.ret negotiations with the enemy. Whatever govern* ment there was he should have fought for it instead of listening to overtures of the enemy, removing their agent and plotting the restorat'on of the empire. He only thought of maintaining the army in good condition to-play the political part he de signed. Had Bazaine done his duty by taking his army into France, leaving Metz to defend herself with the garrison which could subsist on the resources of the surrounding country, Metz would have held out until an' armistice, and Loraine would*hever have been ceded. Reviere continues, a foreign war was not enough. Our unhappy country was con demned to the horrors of a civil war, and what did Marshal Bazaine do then ? He united with the enemy to overthrow the government of Paris. The government condemns Marshal Bazaine for failing to destroy the war materiel left at Metz, while he was careful to destroy all cor and dead, and the development of the re sources of the country retarded.

The Evangelical Alliance In the Alliance, a paper from the old Catholic Congress, recently held at Con stance, signed by Bishop lie-inkers. Pro fessor Dr. Vanschultz ami others, ad dressed to the conference, was also read by Dr. Sciiaff, who prefaced the reading by a few interesting remark.!. The pa per was in response to an invitation for representatives from tlint Qrganixotion. .Mr. Seuaff said that tho address was now luting interpreted and would appear to morrow. Dr. Sehaff reeountol the ac tions of the congress, among which are the establishment of Evangelical preach ing in the Catholic Church, the abolish ment of coufession, the allowing of priests to marry, and the extending of the priv ilege to females of having a voice in tho government of the church. In closing, Dr. Sehaff said that the old Catholic Church now had 50 congregations, 50.000 members and 40 priests, and that next wint.-r -it students would be admitted ill the een.-ge at B.iltn. Speeches generally were bitter against the Church of Rome. In reply to these Dr. Stores, of Brooklyn, followed in an address upon Rome’s appeal to educated Protestants. He said it is easy, but un safe, to undervalue any force but our own. it is difficult for Protestants to un derstand the attraetivo power of Roman ism. IVe have been wont to regard the Roman Church as one of ignorance and superstition. When we have seen per sons going to the Roman Church, we have been apt to believe that they were moved by political aspirations, or some of those eccentricities thntwould have made them a Mormon. This is all wrong. Catholics are intelligent, earnest and ar dent. The great attraction is the great security of salvation offered by the Church of Rome. Their power in believing, as one draws near death, that he can hear his Saviour’* voice speaking through the priests, giving the dving one complete absolution from sin. With these reasons comes the fact of the age of the Catholic Chnrch. To a Catholic the ancient history of Ids church is ono of the grandest things generally manifesting an undue haste to capitulate to the enemy. Tne reading of the report was not con cluded at the adjournment of the Court. The hearing of tho remainder, together with other documents touching Baztui' management of the artillery and com inissariat at Metz, will probably occupy the entire week, and the examination of witnesses will not begin until Monday next. r , The German Government at first re fused to allow subpoenas for witnesses to be served in Alsace and Loraine, but special negotiations have overcome the objections. The War In Spain. Madrid, October 8.—The Remington rifles seized on the British steam yacht Deerhound, have been deposited in the arsenal at Ferrol.

MIDNIGHT DISPATCHES. Liberal Convention Rc.folations. Elxuba, October 8.—The Liberal Con vention resolved that the convention of delegate! from the people of New York congratulate the patriotic citizens of all tue States upon the indications now ap parent of a growing disposition to oppose any express-ion of civil authority, and to demand in all our public ways a return to official honesty, c-onomy and fidelity to the public interest. Resclved, That this gratifying ten dency of public sentiment justifies and encourages us to reaffirm till 1 platform of principles set forth at Cincinnati more than a year ago, which embodies in clear and forcible terms the need of the hour, and by such affirmance to indicate the sincerity of our continued efforts and as pirations for purity of government re form. Resolved, That public approbation be longs to the Senators and Representa tives who, in tho last Congress, dijl not favor the salary increase and back-pay bill, and especially ts such as have volun tarily, without pressure of public senti ment, returned to the Treasury the so- called back-pay; and we denounce every Senator and Representative who voted for or approved such bill, and any party who invokes Congressional action to shield a guilty conscience in doing what should be done, and what some have done without legislation. Further, we feel the most sincere re gret that the President of the United States should so mistake the morality of the American character and disregard- the honor of tho American name as to give his official sanction to a bill which, as far os. it relates to liimst'lf and the members of each branch of Congress, was wholly uncalled for, unprecedented, demoralizing and wicked j and we charge the Republican party with the wrong of inaugurating and passing this kill; and we denounce in the must unqualified man ner this measure and all its supporters, and demand its unconditional repral.' Resolved, That we deem it of the private schemes, and we demand in every department of public expenditure a rigid economy and gool faith, and a thorough investigation aiqi punishment 61 all-offi cial misconduct. r ■.
