THE CUTHBERT APPEAL pi’in/diiwo kvijut ruuHstur morn wo „bt SAWTELL & JONES. 11. H; JONE >*, Ekjte. THIJIWDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 1869. jgf* Ri-.v, J. W. Mjii-S, is our only authors »2.d 11 Jive ling Agent, and is duly empowered to receive and receipt for monies due this office. The Great State Pair. Thin vast exposition of the material j resources rmt only of Georgia, hut the entire Union, opened aacording to pro* gramme on Tuesday the 16th inst. What was originated as a State in- Ntiti tion, by a combination of felicitous circumslnnces developed into a nation al exhibition, alike creditable to our own commonwealth, and the immense territory which extends from ocean to ocean ,and embraces products of the tor rid as well as arctic regions. Wholly unprepared for the avalanche of contributions, which poured in from • voiy quarter even to trie attest hour, the committee were unable at the open ing of the Fair, to assoit and arrange ii: due firm the multitude of specimens, which challenged the utteut on of the public. Asa natural result, some confusion existed on the first day, and many arti cles remained, unpacked. The aide Superintendent Mr. Lewis, however, with his stall 1 of assislants, ex erted themselves to tlio utmost to bring o"dcr out of chaos, and veiy soon the various articles were numbered, ar ranged, and displayed in a creditable and satisfactory manner. And just here we would assert, that having attended the fairs of the great irtute of New York, we are prepared to «ny, despite the earplugs of those whose fashion it is to rail at every thing of Southern origin, that aside from the en tries of cattle and sheep, a more credit able evhibition of tiio industrial arts, has never been made in this country. It was our privilege and pleasure, to examine in detail and at great length, th,e varied and beautiful articles which arrested the attention of the visitor at ■every stop. The bare enumeration of even tiioh half of these, is simply impossible. Ev ery field of science, mechanics, agricul ture, horticulture, needle work, arid the multiform creations id the fancy, was explored and exhausted, to supply mate rial for the magnificent di pray which greeted iho vision of the jjehol Jett. Steam engines,cotton gins and screws, washing and sewing machines, seed and manure distributors, saw sharpeners, sit gar cane mills, and boilers, in full opera tion, specimens of harness, cotton fab rics and yarns, cutlery, embroidery, j innos,furniture,photography, paintings, fancy work, wagons, buggies, plows of every style and shape, labor saving im plements of all kinds, seeds, oats, w heat etc., fertilizers of every smell and name, fruits from the farthest portions of the North including an endless variety ol pears, Chinese cuinces, flowers, choice fi uit trees, delightful syrup and sugars, sweet meats, blooded horses and cattle, Merino sheep, Gaol) more goats, swine, poultry of every description, pige/ms, J£nglish minerals embracing gold hTlfnug' quartz, iron, copper, coal, mineral paint, shite etc. Stationery, blank books, penmanship, globes, Hy phens, wooden ware, tilings, castings, m short all the varied and useful appur tenances of the household, laboratory, farm yard,and work shop, were display ed in great prufusiou Uud the highest perfection. Wo make this pleasing record, with the express purpose of gainsaying -and refuting the statements to the contrary, <»f those who seem to take delight in bslittling our State Fair, and abusing those who have control of it. It is charged that JS3r. Lewis and the executive committee, had not grasp of intellect, and administrative ability equal to the occasion. liut it should bo remembered that this is the first exhibition-of the kind which hits been undertaken since the war, and the managers had to contend v* itb a dispirited people, an empty treasury, and the discouraging feature < f rotation in the location of t!;e exhibi tion, which will ever estop anything like •ncentrated energy, and penmuuut outlay in connection with the same. And by the way, this question is like ly very soon to be decided, and. vve trust in favor of Macon. The laborat- - ry building and grounds, embracing 145 acres, are advertised for sale by the U. S. marshall, in December, and it is thought with proper effort the property can he secured to the Agricul tural Association, at a mod: rate cost. The only difficulty in the way, is the ' rotation of the Fair with Atlanta under the present arrangemeut. Let the. ex ecutivo committee determine to locate the annual exhibition permanently at Mu con, and the funds wil be forth coming to make the desired purchase at once. The improvements will then assume a durable shape, and the whole country be interested in the dec-ration of the grounds. So long as the proposed alternation continues, we may expect to see tempo rary fixtures-, heartburnings and divis-_ ions, where to-ensure success all must lav united. In regard to the remoteness of k tho present site From the city, it may be said, tb t no similar amount of land could be had in the vicinity of Atlanta, at anything like die same cash outlay, whole the broker) nature of tho country ofteis almost insuperable obsvrch s. .Again, the magnificent building known as the C. S. Laboratory, had it been erected and dedicated to the pur pose, could not have been made more suitable and convenient, in every partic' *olnr. The vast hall above has not its equal in tire whole country. The char acter of the soil, the smoothness it 'd elevation of the grounds, the abuml .anee of water, tbe central position of Macon, and her superior hotel aecom modatioiiß, ail unite also in commend ing the present location, ns the most eli gible ft r a permanent annual exhibition, to be found in the State. These suggestions aie ’ S'-red in view <:V the speedy sale at public outcry, of the propei ty in question, and the neces sity tor imttK'diuto action on the, pint of the executive vmatnittao. \\ e are assured that the city of Ma con stands ready with the cooperation of htr et terprisiiig citizen*, to raise all •he funds which m y bo needed to se cure this splendid property, if satisfied that the Fair will be a permanent iusli lotion. >l INCIDENTS OOHNFC' ET) WITH THE FAIR — TIIE TOCKNAMK-JT. This affair about which so much was Slid and promised, fizzled out into.u miserable aboition, scaice'y worthy of— contestants appeared on the lists, and the necessary arrangements for the tilt, such as the adjustment of the ring posts etc. were delayed to the last mop)cut. Again, in the face of a published no tfcse as to the time of the jousts, the public after paying their murrey weri»» regaled with a mule exhibition for bears, while gradually, and patent to the ob servation of all,-the clouds thickened and gathered, and a tempest became inevitable. Just when the patience of every one was exhausted, after hours of suspense, the knights appeared upon the field, and at the -same the rain began to descend. Os course a general stampede was the result, and panic stricken crowds rush ed pell mell from the scene, for shelter in the hall of exhibition. It is said the affair then went for ward to empty benches, and the con~ test was duly decided. ! We must protest against the whole proceedings,as unjust tothecrowds who had paid the required fee, and were en titled to witness the exhibition. The tournament might have taken plaee three times duringthe tedious delays wh ch were permitted without reason or necessity. The sell was complete, and never was indignation more emphatically express ed by an outraged multitude. In accordance with the opinions of our contemporaries, we trust hereafter these burlesques upon a noble ptstimr in the days of chivalry, will be succeed ed by the more practical plowing match, and other useful exercises. Finee the above was written, we find in the Telegraph and Messenger of Sat urday, a card from our friend Col C W. Styles’exonerating the knights and managers of the T umaiuent, from any blame in connection with the fiasco of the day previous. The Knights were ready and eager for the contest, but a few Kentucky mute owners occupied the ring, and were permitted to engross with their long eared favorites'the hoars set aside for the Touruay. • One of their number with his hybrid animal, collided with another Donkey turnout, and a tragedy had well nigh been the result. Quite a number of the knights retired in disgust, and only a few participated in the single round which took place under a drenching rain. The contest was then postponed to Saturday, and no further admission fee imposed. But who will satisfy the thousands who paid for this pait of the exhibition, and were then cheated not of their cn j.-yment by the miserable management oi the ring directors ? ACCIDENTS. On Thursday whilst practising for the projected tournament, one of the ri ders was mortally injured by the falling of his horse, and died the following day. A lady was also pushed from the plat form of the cars by the crowd, and re pel vod severe injures Another was. like wise seriously hruis ed, on the fair grounds, having been accidently thrown down l>y a shove from some careless person passing byo. But oh the destruction dire to criuo liue, dainty _bonnets, and elegant silk dresses, caused by the aqueous fluid, and the hurry and crush of the frantic throng. Some fair forms were scarcely recog- nizable, with their dripping garments plastered to their persons, and all the bravery of flowers, flounces, sashes, and the regalia of a fashionable toilet, be (haggled in the mire, and hopelessly ruined. A number crowded out of the cars, walked through the oozy soil seve ral mil.a to the city. Other* were left to camp on the grounds or make some other shift for themselves. It is eat - mated that $50,000 dollars worth of finery at least, was thqs ingloriously sacrificed by.the remorseless negligence of the Railroad officials in the matter of adequate transportation. Indeed, the Macon & Western Road was showu by this emergency to be es sentially a one horse concern. The writer, after one or two trials, in which he ran the gauntlet of pickpock ets, running off the track, and standing, or hanging on accommodations, for the. pleasure of riding four miles in tivohou£s, pivh led the free air and joyous rattle and motion of the common road wagon. Nor did he ever ei joy anything more keenly than the exhilarating excitement of these Jehu drives umid the throng of cat tinges, jaunting cars, drays, cabs, omnibuses, oxcarts, and every conceiv able aid to locomotion, which w<qp-osor tgj to, to transput t tbo eager multi U '° tt and from the grounds. THE EXHIBITION OF STOCK. This department of the Fair disap pointed cur expectations, though several fine horses and mules wore to be seen. A splendid black stallion owned by Mij Waters near Albany, for beauty and style distanced all competitors. A tew fast trotters also entered the lists, and in a trial of speed made very oredi t able time. Tho display of sheep, goats, and swine, though not large was excel lent In the poultry line too, a great variety of fowls, ducks, pigeons, singing biieis etc, some of them magnificent specimens, appeared iu their coops and cages. MACHINERY AND AGRICULTURAL IMPLEMENTS. Os these a vast variety, embracing all modern inventions and improvements, were on exhibition—plows, coulters, seed distributors, harrows, soil pulver izers, sleurn engines, eune mills, and boilers, cotton screws etc. etc., buggies, velocipedes, marriages, wagons, washing machines and many other mechanical and Johor saving contrivances challen-1 god the admiration of the beholders. ' „ /jp sor.onuM sugar. >- The Messrs Passmore & Wilhelmn, of Louisville, exhibited a number of specimens of sugar and syrup, made from the sorghum cane, which for beau ty and flavor, can Inydiy be surpassed by the juice of the West India cane.— I'o convince the unbelieving, a mill was erected on the grouds, the cane express ed, and the juice by u vo r y simple boil ing apparatus uonveited into thick syr up in the space of twenty minutes. This syrup was then pouted into the hopper of a species of rotary machine, turned by hand, aud subjected to rapid centripetal action. In two minutes tho saccharioo parti cles were all separated-and the residuum of syrup drained thrdligh an orifice iu the bottom, leaving the sugar white as snow, pet feet !y dry, and ready for use. This we regard as one of the triumphs of the age, which must work a revolution in the production ~and cost of this im portant article in the domestic economy. Fi'nxrrcßF. M ossrs. Chastain & Fox, Atlanta, exhibited a magnificent set of room for uituie mimberit g seven pieces, and val ued at $12,09. The bedstead was su perbly carved ajtd dec rated, and all agreed that the taste and skill displayed in the mechanism were of the highest orden THE FOUNTAIN PEN. This discovery, which was exhibited by the agent, Mr. doubling,* a son of tbe ant lit r of the Young Murooners will prove a blessing to editors and scribes oeueniilvu^Dyaningcniorm^^^^m and decends -evenly and uniformly to the pens point, as fasbas required. For an entire half hour, page after page may be jotted down pause or interruption. ■ if-' - ; The pen fully charged can be carried about the person also, ever ready for use. * r j ■ HOTEr. ACCOMMODATIONS. Theso were strained to the utmost, and showed au India rubber property of extension. The" Messrs Brown, bedded 1200 guests at night, and fed from .800 to 1000 at every meal. Y r et every thing moved like clock work, and the supply of edibles seemed literally inexhausti ble, Wo never saw racn more impeftnrba bly courteoßS and accommodating than the enterprising Proprietors. They have proved themselves equal to any possible emergency which can aribe in their line of business. In point of hotel accommodation, Ma con is far in the lead of Atlanta. THE CROWD. Not less than 12000 spectators seve ral times appeared upyn the circular benches of the hyppodroiue, an immense structure. . Tiie guy colors of the ladies gave a brilliant 'mosaic appearance to the throng. We heard many say, the very sight of so vast an assemblage of the very elite of the Smith, was in itself worth all the trouble and expense of a visit to the Fair. At least 20000 persons were scattered through the grounds. PICK POCKETS. Those were on hand everywhere, and operated anke upon gentlemen and la dies. We heard of about 30 victims who hud been'plucked and had good cause to rue the contact of a crowd. In the car shed at the leaving of a train, five cases occurred in a few min utes, and one scoundrel was shot with in a few feet of the writer. WANT or COURTESY. We were pained to note that the an cient reputation of a chivalric South ern gentleman as the gallant defender and protector of the Fair, has certainly departed with ihe iiubrutiug consequen ces of the war. Few would even yield a seat in the cars, and delicate ladies were permit ted to plod through mud and rain, while so called gentlemen rode in ele gant carriages or buggies. Nay they were even jostled and thrown down, receiving serious injury in several instances. For shame that this should be so. A Southerner can now learn a lesson of good behaviour, even from a New York Ferry boat, which should put him to the blush. ‘ We are constrained reluctantly to make this record. Highly Important. —By the latest telegrams we learn from W ushingtofi, that in making up tho roll of the House of Representatives, Georgia has been excluded. This looks like beginning the Con gressional war upon us again. Our people sbeuld'be firm, but very prudent —giving no just cause for such tyran nous treatment.

Zeilin A Cos., of Macon, Ga., has proved to be a spurious imposition. The recipe by which they prepare it is made public, and many others have rights to prepare it besides themselves. For proof of this, see the articles lrom John G. Guiee the following letter from Jas, R. Chiles, the last letter on the subject from Re*. J. G. Jones, dated August 14,1 Stitt, the letter of Rev. F. IT. Da vies, and others. For these ariicies apply, bv letter, or otherwise, to Dr. M. A. SIMMONS, at luka. Miss., or any one who sells his Liver Medicine, which is the first medicine ever called by that Dame, and the on.y genuine “Liver Medicine.” Forsyth, Ga , Oct. 4,1869. Ba. M. A. Simmons, luka, Miss.; My Deab Sir —I use the present mean3 of dis chaiging a duty which I believe is due my friends, and all whom my name might influence. About six years ego I became acquainted with C. A. Simmons, and bought from him a “Liver Medicine," which he brought from the up country, and which I found a perfectly sate and reliable com pound, and eminently suited to tbe class of diseases for which it was'ecommended. Last rear I saw Mr. Zeilin, of the firm of J. 11. Zeilin, & Cos., who told me that he had bought Dt. O. A. Simmons’ recipe at a very high price—five thousand dollars —arid finding that I had used the Simmons medi cine in my family, and was very much pleased with it, he asked we for my certificate. This I gave him cheerfully, thinkiug to help him along in a business calculated to prove a gieat blessing to the human family. Since he began to manufacture iyhowever I am satisfied he nus not the medicine I used ; for having tried it thoroughly, I do not find that it produces the same effect. 1 am. more over, satisfied that C, A. Simmons did not put up the medicine I bought from him, but procured it from bis relafives or somebody else ; for it Zeilin had bought from him the recipe by which that medicine was made and honestly followed it in the manufacture o that which he now puts before ihe public, I knowj we i-heuld have had a different thing, an 1 one rr.o e worthy ihe pub ic confidence 1 am anxious to reps r the Wrong I have done the public by that cert ficate so las ly giver, .and thus put you in possession ot (lie above tacts, which you may use as you think proper, Very lespectfully, JAMES R. CHILES. - Dr. M. A. Simmons’ Vegetable Liver Medicine is more b ghly recommended as a su e remedy for diseases of the Liver, liomach and Itowels —for all distas-sarising lrom alorpid or derang'd state of the Livti—than any other m-diciue in the whole world is lor any disease, or class of dr-eases, what ever. It has more ceit ticate , and better ones, from exactly tbe right class of people, than any oth er med : cine. Consequently, there are more ot a certain class of men trying to counterfeit it, steal its reputation, and get money dishonestly upon its good name, than any other medicine. He particular always to write or ask for Dr. M A. Simmons’ Liver Medicine. Every box of tbe genuine is enveloped iu a steel-plate engrave wrap per, containing the miniature and auti graph ot tbe proprietor. When you get a oox preset ve the wnpper for a counterfeit detector.
