Th*»city authorities of Macoa are spars
•ftff neither labor nor expense to discharge
their contract with the State Agricultural
Society, in a manner which shall redound
eqaanty to the credit of the Society and
the city, and improve to the utmost a lo
cality possessing unrivalled natural beauty
and adaptation to all the uses to which it
is to be applied.
Entering the Park through a very taste
ful and imposing gateway, you como first
upon forty acres in a magnificent grove of
mammoth oaks laid out in drives and av
enaos, which are shaded by the umbrage
ous growth, even at noonday. At the
southern extremity of the grove begins the
numerous structures to be used for the ex*,
position and its concomitants. There are
twelve substantial, and some of them very
imposing, buildings, besides the stables,
and numerous comfortable cottages for os
tlers and attcnddn'N, and all the arrange
ments for other stock.
The more important buildings comprise
the Machinery Hall, fifty feet wide by 210
long, which will be the scene of the me
chanical exposition. The General Exhibi
tion HuU is forty-five feet in width and
250 feet long, and two stories high. This,
we suppose, is to be devoted to products
of the farm, workshop, and factory— to
goods, wares, and merchandise. This
building fronts upon the grove we have
described, and also npou the northern end
of the race course. In a line with this
building, and with an ornate music stand.
between them is the Floral flail, seventy
two feet wide, 184 long, and two and three
stories high. This edifice is furnished
with towers am! galleries from whiefi tlie
view of the ground and track is magnifi
cent.
To the left, at the end of the quarter
stretch on the track is the Grand Stand—
-55 wide, 300 feet long 1 , and two stories
high, which will accomodate live or six
thousand people. The Floral Hull also has
a s : ngle gallery 140 feet long, besides a
great deal of other elevated space from
which every movement on the Course can
be seen. Besides these structures, are
a grand Dining Hall 50 by 150 —a Sa
loon 38 feet vide by 70 feet long, and con
taining 128 feet of counter. A Ladies’
Cottage, furnished with etefy convenience
for tlie toilet —a building for the officers of
the Fair, and a Judges* Stand. All
these buildings arc very tasteful and some
of them imposing. The, Architect, Mr.
Woodruff* has! we think, displayed a great
idea of skill and judgment in planning
them, and no little executive efficiency in
advancing them to their present stage of
completion. When all are finished, they
vvill make a beautiful display.
Coming to the track we may confidently
say it is as perfect as art can maße it—
as level as a floor—graded iu strict adher
once to turf rules, with a gentle incline to
the centre —exactly a mile in circuit, and
of the finest consistency and condition of
quick time. There is not a tree; shrub or
weed about the track. Being perfectly
level, the eye at natural elevation can see
every step of the courser, aud the green
sod of the center and margin contrasts
beautifully with the light, white Tail boun
dtng both sides of the course.
To the right of this course is another fine
grove where are the accommodations foi
the stock and their attendants. These
consist of one hundred and twenty five
stables—and numerous comfortable cotta
ges and other structures, laid off iu four
parallel rows, and not built against ibe
sense as custom is. In front are the little
courses for walking the nags, and the whole
forms as picturesque and beautiful a scene
us one often sees. .
The total area of these Fair Grounds is.
somewhat between 125 and 150 acre., and
we doubt whether there will be a sing e
visitor who fails to pronounce them unri
valled in beauty and convenience- ft» e
beautiful green sward —the nuble* drives
and avenues —the majestic oaks, »ome o
them nearly three feet in diameter of trunk’
and shading a hundred feet of ground
the numerous ’'raidings °f a uuiqWß scud
tasteful architecture, and painted in vari
ous and lively colors—will all present a
scene to be admired and remembered. Fif
ty thousand people wou'd make no crowd
on those ample grounds', and whether in
sunshine or rain can be protected and tsade
comfortable. Ab Park for ener^
tious be a favorite and lovely resort for
the Maconians. Here they will gather fur
all their fetes-here will terminate their
evening drives aud rambles.

Death of an Old Member of the Press. —
The Louisville (Jourior-Jourual of the 12th
iiißt. says :
Mr. John Roberts, the senior prop-ietcr
of tf.e Nashville Banner, died at his resi
dence near that city yesterday. An En
glish printer, and the member of a Lou
don family conspicuous for Rs achieve
ments in mechanic arts, he went to Tens
nessee when a very young mah aud cast
his fortunes in the capital of the State. He
was connected with the Naalivil a .press
during forty years. No man stood higher
for business integrity and persoual worth.
His death will create very severe and very
extensive regret. Mr. Roberts has not
taken an active part in his busiuess for the
last year or two, having mad s a protracted
visit to England , aud devoting much of tftaT
time, ou his return, to agricultural pur
suits. His life was long and prosperous,
and he quits the world leaving the exam
ple of well-directed energies and thorough
probity, along with an ample fortune to
his children. . .. - ---

same may be su’d of all other places iu this

The Blackshear Georgian says: The ex

been very damaging to crops of all kinds
in this section of the country. In Clinch,
Charlton, Wayne, Ware apd Appling, the
whole crop will be cut off over one half.
In Clinch we understand the whole country
is under water, and there will be
comparatively nothing made. In the other
counties ft vtrill be only ofl Very high places
that there will be a crop. The excess of
moisture is very injurious to both the
potato and cane crops. A great deal of the
corn is ruined. We bear very little of the
cotton crop. Hard times is the cry with
our people; and truly, if the weather con
tinues our people will te iu distressing Cir
