pew fe ATLANTA, GEORGIA, : : • OCTOBER 26, TKE FAIR. The 16th Annual Fair of the Geor gia Slate Agricultural Society. This Fair, so long and anxiously looked for ward to by Gforgians in general and the citi zens of Atlanta in particular, was opened yes terday at Oglothorpe Park. The morning broke bright and smiling, and “tipped tho hills with gold;” bat before 10 o'clock the clouds looked somewhat threaten ing. By that hour the grounds presented a most animated scene. Stock arriving; accase- 1ms flow of vehicles, the majority of them bearing articles for exhibition; the screams of the engines of the Western and Atlantic Rail road, as train after train arrived and disgorged its human freight, presented a picture of the moet animating and soul-stirring character. The predictions of those who have prophe sied that the grounds could not be comple ted, that the Fair would have to be post poned, and that tho whole thing would and must be a failure, have not been verified. They forgot tho men who were on the quar ter deck and at the whccL Considering all tho difficulties that had to be surmounted, it required men of such energy of character as the Messrs. Kimball to carry the thing through. They were wisely select ed, and tho task they undertook has been no bly fulfilled. Never has tho Georgia State Fair had an exhibition on grounds so com pletely ad pa ted to tho purpose. Nothing has been forgotten, nothing overlooked. THE PAH ADC 07 BOSSES. The principal attraction of the morning was the parade of horses which took place at 10 a. U. The exhibition was in all respects a very fine one. Tho entire horses took the lead, twelve in number. The number was larger than on any previous occasion and the quality was the admiration of alL We shall have oc casion to speak of tho stock in detail hereaf ter. At present before the judges have award ed the premiums it would bo of ooune out of place to particularize. During tho last week arrivals from abroad have been daily increasing in number, and yesterday morning found our hotels thronging with guests from all portions of our own and other States. By nine o’clock in the morning there was a general movement of carriages along Marietta Avenue, towards the Park, and at that hour the State Road trains commenced regular trips to the grounds, at intervals of half an hour, and carried wall loaded ears for some time da ring the afternoon. At the main front enterance to the grounds some trouble and dissatisfaction was for a time prevalent resulting from a misunderstanding of orders by tho gate-keeper, regarding ticket holders. This, however, was soon obviated, and the waiting and expectant crowd rushed IN SIDE. To tho left of the entrance, is the spacious Hall devoted to agricultural and mechanical implements; and in this department we find the work of fitting up much move advanced than elsewhere. The main ball is under the superintendence of Mr. B. H. True, to whose courtesy many reporters will be under repeated obligations. From the mass of yet disarranged articles of machinery on exhibition can, to-day, be aoleeted some that are attracting considerable attention, among which is the ■nuuB CORN USA, On exhibition by Mr. Charles Soig. This mill is called tho “Queen of the South;” is an nn- demmner, ballonoed and stationary on the spindle, and, in consequence, it is claimed, is always in train. It is manufactured by Isaac Straub & Co., Cincinnati, and is said to bo an cxoellaal piece of machinery. a steam nnn engine, (V . its way to Columbus, in tLis State, stopped hero and will remain on the grounds during the Fair. It is from the SIbly Island Works, oeneca Falls, N. Y., and attracts considerable attention. ; THAT $100 IN GOLD For the best packed bale of cotton with John son's ties, is bringing in competitors. There are now seven entries for the award, and, no doubt, more coming. They represent the counties of Greene, Pike, DeKalb, Bartow and Wilkes. Messrs. Davis and Green are com peting for tho best twenty, beat ten, best five and best single bale of upland short staple cotton; also for tho best packed bale with the Johnson tic. THE DOMESTIC DEPARTMENT AND AUDIENCE nir.T. The lower floor of this Hall should be one of the most interesting departments of the Fair, particularly to young ladies, whether mar ried or single, because hero are exhibited those household qualifications which, if they do not most adorn a home, are perhaps foremost in making homo happy and comfortable. Here are exhibited the efforts and experiences of housewives in baking bread, making mlra find preserving fruits and vegetables. A depart ment of household economy wo commend heartily to our young ladies, for, by its cultiva tion, they appeal to what, in many instances, they will find to be tho weaker portion of man's nature. There is much philosophy in the saying that a man is generous after a good dinner, and surely at no time is a man so ugly if he is predisposed to ugliness as when his dinner has not satisfied himself and friends. Therefore ladies preserve your sweets and you won't regret it The first object on the left that attracts at tention is an enormous ham from McFerxan, Armstrong A Co., of Louisville, which weighs 75 pounds. In close proximity are a half doxen hams from A. G. Holmes. For the premium for flour then are two competitor*. Tho Whit field Mills, of Dalton, exhibiting the “Ocean Spray." and the Atlanta Mills, exhibiting the “Pride of Dixie." Moure. TT.ll and Allen, of Looiirille, and Woodman and Co., of Chicago, compete for the beat collection of crackers. For the beat cake, and bread the contest will be eloee between Mia. E. W. Holland and Mi.. Lon Sartain, of Atlanta. Mrs. T. Pence, of Rome, exhibit, some aery tempting sponge and fruit cake, and Mrs. O. W. D. Cook, of Atlan ta, will be a formidable competitor, in the matter of the stuff of life. Mrs. Amanda Cook, of Dallas, exhibited a line collection of 22 rarities of cake. Is on exhibition by Mr. II. A. Erins, sndii attracting considerable attention. IU paten tees an Andrew* and Godfrey, who claim that it will separate twenty-six boahela of wheat from the cockle in one bonr. -They sell the machine for forty-fire doliara. Near nbore, and being pnt in running order, is the Chase A Morton's patent Among other superior qualities’claimed for it, is that of producing a planed shingle, a feat said to be performed by no other machine in the United States. Its foil capacity is twslre boras power; and, running at foil spaed, tarns oat one shingle to tho aeoond. The machine costs $60, and is on exhibition by Mr. C. C. Sanderson. PLOWS, CULTITAXOas, ETC. In the way of plows, eulUraton, and other articles of like nature, the upper story of the hall is well supplied; bnt they nro yet in so confused a state of arrangement that we will await a more farorablo opportunity for taking note of thorn. This is generally the caw all departments to-day, and little of a satis factory nature can be gleaned from a tonr of observation. ■XATT lUClnKXBT. In this line, there is on exhibition and in working condition, Davis’ PATEXT niSIKTXOJUTOll, Manufactured by Denmead A Son, Baltimore, Md. It is claimed that one of these mills will pulverize, of imper pho&tate, fifty tons per day; and of Charleston phosphate reek, from forty to fifty tons. The mill will be pat in operation to-morrow forenoon and fully A very fine stationary engine is being pnt np near the above, but as yet is not ready for any teat. It is manufactured at the Metropol itan Works. Richmond, Vo. A few feet from Mechanic'. House is a large canvas pavalion, in which are oollected and set out for inspection, a fine collection of forming impliments, cotton in bale, carriages, buggies, etc. Of the former, the establishment of W. W. Johnson, Atlanta, is represented by wheat drills, hone rakes, and a splendid specimen of workmadship from Akron, Ohio, known as the - -Excelsior Combined Mower and Reaper." There is also on exhibition by 1.. Ball A Co., the “World Mower and Beeper,’ manntee- tured at Canton, Ohio, for which there are claimed improvements over all competitors. Of the BUOOIZS AND CAUIAOES, there is an extensive and tasteful display; and, first of all, the eye is attracted to three speci mens from the Atlanta manufactory of Mr. F. A. Finney. One is an extention top barouche; the other,a beautifullyifinished open top boggy, and the third, a wagonette, or “Poney Phae ton." This work is Tery creditable, and would hold itsplaco among first class make any where. There are, also, two or three buggies, made in this city, at the shops of Messrs. McBride and Smith, which are remarkablo for strength and neatness combined. This firm have here a very fine show of open and top baggies from the manufactory In New Haven. form tho largest clan in tho building, and the entries are so numerous that the judges will find themselves sorely paxxled to arrive at a con- elusion. At the present, we must content our selves with one or two exceptions, by giving a list of the ladies who have entered for the prize*. Mrs. Ore, Athene; Mrs. C. E. Goodman, Atlanta, a large collection; lire. Paul Jones, Atlanta; Jno. H. Parnell, West Point; Miss H. H, Judson, Atlanta; Mrs. A. M. Plumb, a fine collection; Mrs. Warnix, Mrs‘D.

Tomlinson, Whitfield; Miss Lizzie Pearso, Atlanta. Tho canting of these preserves excited the admira tion of all. Tho H. L Kimball House, the entrance to the Fair Grounds, trotting and running horses, were admirably depleted. Mina Georgia Shepherd, Bartow; J. a New- nan, Hanoock county; J. Van Baron, Clarks ville; a collection of preserved vegetables by Mrs. L. Rutherford was very fine. Dr. F. D. Thurman, of Solitate plantation, Atlanta, exhibited sixty varieties of strawberry plants. Mr. J. B. Rockwell showed a fine collection of preserved pcachoa. Messrs. Mark Johnson, of Atlanta, and Hamilton, of Dalton, each show a fine collec tion of seeds. The Messrs. Meador brothers show a collec tion of cigars and leaf tobacco, some of the cigars being of mammoth proportions. The brand is "Tho Empire State of the South.” The finest potatoes we ever saw were exhib ited by Mrs. Rena Rowlands. The Royal Baking Powder bore finds a place. It has taken several premiums and diplomas. A collection of forty varieties of evergreens from the nursery of Mr. Downing, Atlanta, attracted much attention. Messrs. Burkman A Co., of Augusta, showed a very fine collection of seventy-five varieties of apple trees. Mrs. Sallie Colquitt exhibited a collodion of vegetables containg twenty-nine varieties. Messrs. Harden A Cole and Dr. B. Hamil ton, of Dalton, each bad very fine collections of fruit Messrs. McBride, importers, had a hand- me ease of Deringer pistole on exhibition in this building. THE AST purvey In this building centered the beautiful and artistic. And dae appreciation for ita con tents was shown by the crowds Urat flocked into it It was decidedly the moet popular of all tho buildings. Upon entering the olfactory nerves were tickled with the delightful perfomes which arose from the beautiful stand of Messrs. Pemberton Taylor A Co. Here, every per fume under tho sun appeared to be oollected, and the show was one of the finest of the kind we ever aaw. Close along side was Mr. M. W. Garrison, with a selection of Messrs. Colgate and Company's fancy and other soaps, some of which were mado np most admirably to imitate potatoes, oranges, lemons and other things. He had one hundred end fifty-two varieties of soap on his table. Mr. J. Van Boren and Mr. Oliver Matthews each exhibited fine collections of Georgia mineral*. Two bcantifnl specimens of penmanship were shown from Messrs. Bryant Stratton and Saddler’s Commercial College of Balti more. Mr. A. C. Ladd bad specimens of hia light ening rods with ornamental tips on exhibition. A very novel and exceedingly useful assem bly or school room desk was drown, the inven tion of W. A. Slaymakcr, Esq., who lias ap plied for a patent for it. The seat is a com fortable one, and the back, when dosed, is a receptacle for books, Ac., end can be locked. When open, it forms a neat desk for the nse of the person sitting behind; when closed, ample room is given for passage between. The frame-work is iron, and can be taken apart with the utmost ease. It is xuanufocturod in Atlanta, and is well worthy the attention of all 'ho are interested in or who are bnilding Alexander, and J. M. Holbrook—tho latter also showing specimens of trunks and v&lises. A very fine specimen of reeled raw silk, dyed in four colors, was shown by Mrs. W. G. Newman. This lady raised tho silk from co coons, and dyed it herself. Mrs. J. C. Orr; exhibited affine down muff, and Mrs. F. Pierce an excellent roll of rag car pet. Messrs. Eisraan A Bro. and Rosenfeld, of the Gate City Clothing Store, exhibited speci mens of tailoring. Messrs. M. 0. Markham and Force & Sons bad cases of shoes; that of the latter being much admired. Dr. Pomeroy had a lot of hia Forest Qneen Hair Restorer on exhibition. This Atlanta production is making its mark in the world. Mr. William J. Land, the talented chemist -attached to Messrs. Pemberton, Taylor A Co., had on exhibition n fine selection of manufac tured chemicals. His crystalizations were much admired by such men as Prof. Means and others who knew their worth. . Messrs. Chamberlin A Boynton had a large assortment of carpets, mats and rugs which were much admired for their beauty of de sign and execution. Another quite interesting feature of this room were the specimens of darning, from little girls. Tho prixo being offered by Mr. J- C. Kimball. There ore some six or seven competitors, their ages varying from 6} np to 12} years. It will require exceedingly well informed judges to award this prize. Mra. Sarah Land of Macon, exhibited a very beautiful specimen of ornamental leather work. The stand however which attracted most at tention was tho corner devoted to Mr. George Sharp, jr., we have not time to more than mention a few facts. The value of the jewels, watches and plate exceeded $100,000. A cose of watches was perhaps the most valuable ever exhibited. It contained the watch that took the first premium at Faria in 1667 at Havre in 1868, and at Copenhagen in 1869. This is made by Jorgensen. Another curiosity is a Peiregans watch, it tells the second, minute, hour, day of the week, day of the month, tho month, and by it yon can time a race. The show of silver was magnificent, it included two solid silver tea sets, one after the fashion of a piece of Pottery found at Herculaneum by a gentleman of Philadelphia, and is at once unique and elegant. The other is a gem of art. The coses merely in which these services are placed are said to be worth $100. We shall have more to say about this, as also about the remaining portion of the hall and the gallery, which time did not admit of more than the most ennory examination yesterday. We report the following items on exhibition in the Haxdwakx axd Grain Depabzkeez: One bushel of oats and prolifio com, exhib ited by J. S. Newman; also, bast bread oom, by G. F. Turner and Daniel Johnson; beat sample corn, by D. P. Comp; stock corn, by C. W. Howard; best bread corn, by Mrs. L. Rutherford; 9 bushels of oats, by Hugh and Chnreb; a sample of Norway oats, of a very superior growth, was on exhibition by D. W. BomsdelL Mrs. L. Rutherford had also a very fine sample of wheat of her own raising. A sample of smoke flake oats was exhibited by Mr. J. H. Cozart. Mr. R. M. Young bad fino growth of Swede oats. Jourdan, Howard A Harralson had a superior article of smoking tobaoco. A sack of cotton seed meal (which was a novelty) was exhibited by Wright, Schnider A Co.; also an excellent article of hominy. Six parlor mantels were exhibited by 8. B. Evans A Co., of Cincinnati, and they are truly su perb. Hr. F. JL Richardson and W. M. Reynolds bad stoves on exhibition of a new patent Messrs. Hindis A Hope’s stove was quite a finished tiring with all the modern arrange, men to. Wadsworth A Co., of Louisville, also bad a stove on exhibition which attracted the atten tion of our ladies. OOODS AXD FUBN1TOKB D] The first tiling wo examined was a magnifi cent aetof furniture, manufactured by Hucstis A Hope. These gentlemen also had a clothe* wringer on exhibition, which was greatly ad mired by the ladies. Mr. John Johnson had a very rare collec tion of brooms of his own raising. We next examined a fino and well furnished writing secretary and twelve chairs exhibited by Mr. W. R. Knox. Clark A Co. had two handsome cases, of cutlery, each contouring a full set of implements. Mr. E. B. Sawin bad four boxes of globe nails, which we heard a very large and intelli gent planter speak very highly ot These nails are manufactured in Boston and have taken prizes at other Fain. A portable fence by ijr. F. H. Green showed much ingenuity. A show case, with a rifle of a new invention and sporting implements, were exhibited by Mr. Charley Herring. A set of buggy harness was hanging np. They were home manufac ture. Mr. Charles Bohnefeld had a handsome set of furniture on hand. Messrs. J. S. Adair and G. W. Price each had a spring mattress on exhibition. Mr. A. Ergenxinger bad a home manufactured bed- cad. The Eagle and Phoenix had quite an assort ment of strips, ticking and woolen goods on and; also sewing and knitting threads. The Concord Mills had on exhibition eighteen bales of medium and nine bales of fine goods. L B. Janell, agent The Chattahoochee Factory, situated on the Chattahoochee river, had some Osnabnrgs which appeared to be a very superioEarticle. The Augusta Mills had a large sample of their sheeting; also, Matt R. Freeman had on exhibition a patent axle which seemed to be an improvement on the old style. W. L. Wadworth A Co. had on exhibition a set of planished copper stove furniture lined with tin. These gentlemen represent a Louis ville firm. The most novel thing we aaw during the day was a very unique and ingeniously con structed bee hive. It is quite a curiosity, and on exhibition by Mr. Shirk Constant Many articles for the Fair have not as yet been placed on exhibition, and hence we have not been able to make a fall report, but which ws hope to do daring the week. In this department were shown the homo- made carpetings, mgs and coverlets. In the latter, tho principal exhibitors were Mrs. Holmes Garnett, Mrs. N. A. Mooro, and Miss Ellen McDonald. Elegant assortments of furs and hats were I shown by Messrs. J. C. Holbrook, Salmons &. The hour of three having arrived the great assemblage made its way to the grand am phitheatre attracted thither by the strains of the Post Bond, and also the ringing of the bell summoning the horse* to the track. Tho Judges selected, were Messrs. W. S. Clay, Atlanta; lb S. Spalding, LaGrange; Col. R. Sims, Bainbridge; W. Phillips, Ma rietta; C. D. Findlay, Macon; J. A. G. An derson, Marietta, and XL G. Whitlock, Ma rietta. To the surprise of every one it was announc ed that the races would be trotted against time. Actual competition not being permit ted. Now with all deference to the ruling powers wo can see no possible uso for any such hair-splitting. The understanding ap peared to be that racing was not -to be per mitted. This is straining at a gnat and swal lowing a camel. Wo sincerely hope that the absurdity of the rale will bo made manifest and that it will bo allowed in future—such a course occupies more timo—is not conducive to any good end and disappoints the public, who were loud in their remonstrances and their opinion appeared to be favored by a number of the gentlemen wearing badges. The trotting was between horses in the twelfth class, sections 1 and 2. Tho fastest trotting singlo harness horse and fastest pair of trotting horses. For section 1, fastest singlo hamsss horse, tho prize was a piece of plate, value $100, and the entries as follow: G. C. Shadbnm, Louisville, C. Taylor, Ma con. J. A. Chambers, Savannah, O. T. Rogers, Covington. J. H. Houghton, Union Point and E. B. Eller ton, Nashville. The first to show on the course was Mr. Shadbum’s Molly Buckner; she tipped up at the send off and broke badly all through; she made the half mile in 1:30 and the milo in 2:50. Mr. Chambers next appeared, driving his mare Atlanta, ho got a good steady send off The mare trotted finely throughout, only breaking once at the second turn on the sec ond turn round. After a fiue trot she under the string in 2:35$, having made the half mile in 1:15. Mr. Houghton next tried a trot with Star light, but gave it up before he had gone a quarter of a mile. The mare broke so badly that nothing could be done with her. Mr. C. Taylor then brought up his horse Dick Taylor. He made a fine trot; broke up once or twice, but was so easily caught that it made but little difference. He made the first round in 1:23. The mile in 2:46$. Mr. E. B. Elleston, with Tennessee, next claimed attention. This horse proved himself to be a trotter. He made better timo thnn any of his predecessors, but was unfortunate, as he broke just as he came in and galloped under the string. He made the half mile in 1:19.— The mile in 2:35$. He was, however, rtfled out. and Mr. Chambers* f . - ATLANTA WAS DECEARED THE WINNER. Double teams were noxt in order, and the following came up for competition: Mr. J. H. Nichols, of Nocoohee, Go., Kate and Anna, driven by owner. Mr. Scott, of Kentucky, Bob Lee and Roger Hanson, driven by John Faris. Mr. Goolsby of Jasper county, Orphan Boy and Ginbnrner, driven by J. Hagly. Mr. Chambers, Hickory Jack and Atlanta, driven by owner. Mr. Taylor’s Dick Taylor and Beauregard, driven by owner. Mr. Scott formally objected to Mr. Cham bers pair trotting, as they were not a match team. He said he had brought his horses a thousand miles, and he would not trot against any but match teams. Much discussion followed, the yesult of which was that Chambers was allowed to trot his pair, and Mr. Soott declined to permit his horses to trot against him, and sent his pair from the track. We regret that the misunder standing should have occurred through a vagueness of language in the premium list, particularly as Mr. Scott's horses were univer sally admired, and many believed after tbs race was over that they would have won had they been permitted to run. Mr. Chamber's two showed up first, and made their mile in splendid style in 2:54$* Jack, however, broke and was running wliea going under the string. — Mr. Gouldsby's pair of blacks, a handsome light team, trotted round very steadily, going the mile in 3:17. Mr. Taylor brought Dick Taylor and Beauregard round in 3:03$, beating Mr. Nichols* ponies by two seconds. They trotted well, but broke once or twice and it was bard to get them back. They were hand some, hardy little mares and were much ad mired. Mr. Chambers was ruled out, and Mr. Tay lor's pair, TAYUM AND BEAUREGARD, DECEARED THE Wo wish we could close our report of the day's proceeding without alluding to anything of an unpleasant character, but we have to chronicle the fact that THE UNITED STATES FLAG WAS HAULED DOWN by order of the President of tho society about 11 a. sc. The flag had been floating all the morning as also had one from a flag-staff of Messrs. Wooten and Mercer. The President, however, ordered both to be token down and hia mandate was obeyed. A fine string o Banting was left up, however, belonging to Mr. Mercer. The following correspondence explains itself: 7b ike Pesident and Executive Committee the Georgia State Agricultural Society—Gentle- men: We, the undersigned, have seen with regret and no slight apprehension that the hauling down of the National ensign this morning on these grounds has given rise to to much discussion, and we ourselves enter tain very grave doubts, of tho propriety and policy of the act We can see no possible barm which could result from flying the United States flag, and see, or think wo see, a great deal of harm which may result from a refusal on the part of the ruling authorities of the State Agricultu ral Society to allow this flag to be hoisted. We then, in view of all the facts, beg leave most respectfully to urge that at the soonest practicable moment you give orders to have the national ensign replaced. Heniy Quigg, Wm. Ezzard, J. K. Bomum, J. N. Simmons, J. H. Nichols, W. T. Trammell, D. A. Vason, Carey W. Stiles, Richard Peters, James Ormond, Arthur Hood, C. W. Howard, T. C. Howard, Samuel Barnett, L. E. Bleckley. CURIOSITIES. Messrs. Bates and Tolley, of tho Montreal Museum, have the most attractive exhibition on the Fair Ground. A boy weighing 478 pounds, 8 feet high; a woman with a heard and an educated hog. This hog is a mathe matical genius, and his calculations on the black-board are truly wonderful. People vis iting the Fair will miss a treat if they fail to see the educated hog. NOVEL SWING. Among the many novelties is a swing made by an Illinois gentleman, Mr. H. Cobb, now on exhibition at the Park. It is a circular un der a canvass, accommodates mpapi persons, owned by Relyea and Phelps. SEATING RINK. This place of amusement was visited yes terday by scores. THE ADJACENT SCENES AND ATTRACTIONS ore many and various. Mr. James Mace and his little crowd bang out under a canvas near ly opposite the entrance. Close by the is the shebang of Mr. Coughlin, who dispenses sand wiches, ale, Ac. , of admirable quality, at mod erate prices. A shooting gallery, near by, is extensively patronized, and numberless re freshment stands line the road from Atlanta to the grounds. EXERCISES TO-MORROW. Nine o’clock, examination of cattle by the judges. Ten o'clock, speed test—Fastest four year old and three year old. Eleven o'clock, fastest liorso one and two miles. Daring tho morning, judging stallions, bor- ses of all work and heavy drought horses. Twelve o’clock, trial of Gins. Three o’clock, speed test—Fastest one, two three and four miles thorough breds. SECOND DAY. MECHANICAL. Notwithstanding tho raw air, and conse- sequeut demand for standing places around furnaces, the halls dovotod to tho display of Agricultural and other mechanical works, were thronged with visitors at an early hour: and a glance at tho private depot for such im pliments dovotod entirely to tho display of machinery from the house of that enterprising and wide-awake dealer of this city, Sami A. Echols, at once convinced every now comer that he had something thero worth seeing and making a note of. Taking each object of interest os they come, we first notice the. AMERICAN CIDER AND WINE MILL, manufactured by 'Williamson & Brothers, Har risburg, Penn. This is a largo, and to all ap pearance, excellent mill, having heavy balance, and five smaller wheels, and is turned by crank. In connection with it is a screw press. The machine is neatly and substantially made, and elicits considerable commendation. Im mediately beside it is a NO. TWO, smaller, and more simplified in its construc tion. It turns by a balance wheel, which, with the “grinder,” constitutes the entire complication of its revolving machinery. Next comes Brunswick’s National HAT CUTTER, a simple, and to all appearance, efficient help to the farmer; and close beside it is Nos. 2, 3, 4 and 5, of the TELEGRAPH FODDER CUTTER. Theso machines are noticed by everybody within tho Hal), and are highly commented on by thoso who liave tested their qualities. They are adapted, by their size and strength, to general cutting uses on the farm or planta tion, and, in point of workmanship, aro neatly and substantially made. No. 2 «**>*«« to be adapted to all uses. They are designed for, And is constantly eliciting inquiry and admir ation. In close proximity to these we see tho 8NOW WASHING MAC1HINE. Among the hundreds of machines of this kind, the “Snow” seems the most simple in construction, and the better adapted thereby to fill tho wants of the housewife and profes sional washer of linen, of any before observed. It is worked by lever force, and the washing dono by two adversely moving, washer sup plied boards. It is entered by L. Spencer, Social Circle, Go. Accompanying the above is the KNUCKLE WASHER, patented by L. E. Ransom. This is merely a fixture to any ordinary washing tub, and looks liko tho possessor of some merit in making soiled linens iunocnlate. Thero aro two discs, supplied with rubbers, the lower of which fastens to the bottom of the tub, tho upper ono sliding on and revolving around a shaft, to which is attached a lever power. In thin connection we will mention that there are two or three other inventions of this kind on ex hibition at Mr. Echols* stand, bnt we, as yet, have had ito opportunity of examining them. Among other articles of small note, but much importance to the farmer, is an iron “Road Scraper,” the “Lanscape Roller,” an improve ment on the ox yoke, an ingenious and handy clothes form, and the “Thermometer,” “Mon- iter,” and “Cylinder” churns, all of which may get a better notice before tho exhibition is over. The display of heavy fanning machinery at this stand is good, but not yet so arranged as to afford a just and sufficiently comment. MECHANICS HOUSE, at ten o’clock in the morning, was crowded with spectators; and by eleven, the greater portion of the machinery thus far pnt in run ning order, was in full motion, making a whirr and route that alone seemed sufficiently exbil- crating for tho shivering spectators. The scene here was in strong contrast to that of yesterday, and as the work nears completion, it will day by day become the more interesting and attractive to visitors. . Prominent, to-day, among the machinery, is tho SEPERATOR AND SMUTTER. This useful piece of mechanical skill and in genuity is manufactured by M. Deal, Bucyrus, Ohio, and put on exhibition by E. J. Camp.— It claims to bo the greatest improvement mode for several years, and has many admirers. It saves the necessity of other screws, fans, etc., doing the whole at one operation, and, no doubt, is an important feature in agricul tural wants. low’s PATENT SHINGLE MACHINE was kept in full swing during tho day. It turns out rapidly and beautifully executed work. The advantages claimed on its great simplicity and durability, ease of opeigtion and quantity as well as variety of work. Having a horizontal shaft, no counter shaft is needed, and tho saw is so arranged with tho machinery that it can run to the right or left, and always cut w ith the grain. It claims to turn out, ordinarly, from twenty to thirty thousand shingles in a day. 8HAW’s COTTON SEED DULLER is a marked featuro in the Hall, and was pat in operation at noon. This comes home to ev ery planter in the South, and very favorably commented on by nil, present. The Haller is from the Diamond Mills manufacturing Com pany, Cincinnati, Ohio, and is put on exhibi tion by Messrs. Glenn & Wright, of At lanta. A novelty, and what is looked upon as some thing worthy of particular note, is the HAND POWER SAWING MACHINE, Manufactured by Porter & Butler, Atlanta. It claims to be particularly adapted to car riage, wagon, cabinet, and trunk manufacture. The frames are of cast iron, and the weight of the machine is twelve hundred pounds. It oc cupies a space of four by eight feet, and can be run by steam or horse-power. In THE LADIES* DEPARTMENT Yesterday, we were shown through their Hall by the gentleman who is in charge of it The first thing that we noticed was a very large collection of hermetical preserved fruit. It was on exhibition by A. A. Snope of Indian apolis, Indiana. Mrs. G. W. D. Cook of this city had a largo collection and varied assortment of canned preserves, canned corn, grape and scupper- nong wines.

In close proximity to theso stands a COTTON GIN FEEDER, Tho only one, as yet, on the grounds. This comes from its manufactory, Sing Sing, N. Y. It has been patented three times; is neatly made, and is said to possess good qualities. WAGONS. Of these the number is not great bnt the quality good. They aro from . J. L. Hudson A Co., Cumming, Ga, Short A Buckner Dal ton, Semple, Berge A Co. 8L Louis, and from one or two other manufactories not ascertained. The wagon from Short & Buckner is a remark able piece of stout and elegant workmanship, is, also, the one on exhibition by Berge Co. In lino with these, we noticed a long row of the BRIGGS CULTIVATORS. They are manufactured at Cleveland, Ohio, and are placed on exhibition by Glenn Wright. They are neatly made, and present a fine appearance among the many noticeable objects around them. Just beyond these, comes a long array of HEAVY AND LIGHT PLOWS. They are from the manufacturing house of Watt A Knight, Richmond, Va., and in tbc main will compare well with any collections on the grounds. Under this head, wo may as well jump book to tho upper floor of tho Hall and look over the large collection these implements gathered there. First of all comes ono of a novel, ingenious and useful cast, known as XOUNLEX’s UNIVERSAL PLOW. The cutter to tho plow is a circular and re volving blade, and isAvdapted to tho heaviest sod, or rooty grouffiL It took ( two premiums at the Memphis exhibition.

A magnificent FANNING MILL Is on exhibition by the same firm. It claimed to clean wheat from chaff at the rate of from three to four hundred bushels per day. It is equally useful in cleaning out cheat, cockle, and other impurities m wheat. They also have in the Hall a large collection of plows, and other impliments from their manufactory. There ore a great many GUANO AND GRAIN DISTRIBUTORS On exhibition, and seemingly of every con ceivable design.

From the New York Tribune.] On the 20th of April, 1861, Colonel Lee, after a service of twenty-five yearn, resigned his position in the United States army, send ing his letter of resignation to General Scott, at Washington. It was in the following Arlington, Va., April 20, 1861. General: Since my interview with you on the 18th instant, I have felt that I ought not longer to retain my commission in the army. I therefore tender my resignation, which I re quest you will recommend for acceptance. It would have been presented at once but for tho struggle it coat me to separate myself from a service to which I have devoted all the best years of my life and all the ability I possessed. During the whole of that time—more than a quarter of a century—I have experienced nothing but kindness from my superiors, and the most cordial friendship from my comrades.. To no one, General, have I been as much in debted as to yourself for uniform kindness and consideration, and it has always been my ardent desire to meet your approbation, l shall carry to the grave the most grateful ollcctions.of your kind consideration, and your name and fomo will always bo dear to me. Save in defense of my native State, I never desire again to draw my sword.

We aro now in a state of war which will yield to nothing. The wholo South is in a stato of revolution, into whioh Virginia, after a long struggle,- baa been drawn; and though I recognize no necessity for this state of things, and would have for borne and pleaded to the end for redress of grievances, real or supposed, yet in my own person I had to meot the question whether I should take part against my native State. With all my devotion to tfv* Union, and the feeling of loyalty and duty of an American citizen, I have not been able to mako up my mind to raise my bond against my relatives, my children, my home. I have, therefore, resigned my commission in the army and save in defense of my native State—with the sincere hope that my poor services may never be needed—I hope I may never be called upon to draw my sword.” This was the only definition of his position over given by him. Ilis resignation was in stantly accepted, and he at once took np his residence in Richmond, as coHjipander of the forces of Virginia. was awarded to Mr. W. J.

Dear Sins: Daring a long residence in China I have used your invaluable Fain Killer, both in my own fain, ily and among the Chinese, and have found it a moat eTfelVm* wwiirine. In the summer of 1862 and ’63, while residing in Shanghai, I found it an almost cer tain cure for cholera, if used in time. Indeed, using it in a great many instances, I do not remember fail ing in a single case. For three years I have been re siding in this place, more than fifty miles from a phy sician, and have been obliged often to fall upon my inroes in cases of sickness. The Chinese come to us la great numbers for medicine and adyico.— Though without medical knowledgo ourselves, the few simple remedies wo can command are so much In ad vance even of their physicians, that we havo almost daily applications. We allow them to come, because it brings us in contact with them, and opens a door of usefulness. In diarrheta, colic, vomiting, cholera, coughs, etc., your Pain Killer kaa boen my chief med icine.
