New Your, July 2'l, 187.1. Editors Telegraph S' Mrttsrmjer: I am glutl to say that it is likely we will lmve at the approaching State knit', n largo representation of exhibitors uud visitors from each of Lite largi cities of Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York uud Boston. Through tin kindness aud assistance of that polite geutlemau uud courteous otUcer, Mr. George Yonge, agent of the Georgia Central Railroad, at 409 Broudway, in this city, 1 have been euabled to ef fect most fuvoruble rules for passage and transportation to the Georgia Slate Fair, from each of the cities limned above, via tin- steamship lines to Savannah and tho Central Rail road. The fare from New York lo Macon and return by this route will be only #27, tickets good for twenty eight day 9 and including berths, staterooms and meals, on tho steam ships. A special excursion ticket to the “Georgia State Fair,” to carry out this arrangement, will be put on sale at each of these cities from the 7tlt October. All goods for exhibition will In transported at tho current rates pre vailing at the time and returned/w. Mr. A. Pope, the indefatigable and accommodating general passenger and ticket agent of the "Atlantic Coast Line,” bus obtained for us an excursion ticket via that line, at three cents per mile going to Macon and return free, or about $29 for the round trip from New York to Macon and return. The same rates will prevail from Baltimore, Philadelphia, Bos ton and Providence. Freights by this line will also be transported at hall tlie regular through rate. Thus wc have facilities by either water or nit rail at unusually favoralde prices for getting to our great exposition in October next. NOTABILITIES WHO EXPECT TO ATTEND THE FAIII. While in Cincinnati i had the pleasure to meet Mr. Frederick Hus saurek tof whom your readers have heard before as one of the gentlemen expected to deliver an address at the Fain, editor of the Cincinnati I’ulk#- bliits, and a prominent and influential leader of tile German people in the United States. In personal appear ance lie is small, thin, medium height and fair complexion has a bright, quick eye, musical voice, and though a man of diminutive stature, lias a commanding and impressive bearing, lie is a man, 1 learn, ol rare literary attainments, and lias achieved quite an enviable reputation as an orator. There will certainly be a large aim respectable delegation from the Cen tennial Board in attendance upon the Fair, prominent umoug whom 1 may mention Gen. J. R. Hawley, President of tho commission, Mr. Welch, President of the Centennial Finance Board, and ex-Gov. Win. Bigler. Gen. Hawley will very likely make a short address at the fair, selling forth the object of the Cen tennial, aud urging tile Ho in tier n States to the importance of their tak ing an active part in the exhibition. Georgia cannot afford to miss tuis golden opportunity, of illustrating her productions, manufactures, min eralogy, geology, etc. that tire world may be informed of the advantage® which she offers in the way ol soil and climate and natural resources, uud she wilt not, I believe, let escape. At our Fair will be a line opportuni ty to make a collection from the ar ticles ou exhibition, to be represented hero in tlie Centennial, ami i trust our Commissioners and those charg ed with this duty, will improve the opportunity. 1 visited the grouuus and buildings aud lound preparations going ou in tile grauUesl aud most extensive scale, single buildings covering acres ot ground and con structed in the most approved style for bounty, elegance, comfort mid general adaptability to the purposes ot exhibition in the special depart ment for which they are intended. The improvement being as yet in an in choate condition, no just conception could be formed of tho place us it would be when per footed. A large force is employed upon the work, uud there is no doubt but that everything will be in readiness before the exhi bition opens on May in, l7<>. In my travels X have met many gen tlemen with whom X have conversed freely concerning the affairs of the South and of Georgia, and their pros pects politically, agriculturally and commercially. X liud a general lack of information as to the true status of tho South in these respects, espe cially in the material progress she has ’made since the termination ol tlie war, many of them having never visited Georgia, and others not since the time when Atlanta was an insig nificant railroad station, and Macon poled tier cotton on liatboats to the sea. I have invited them all down to the State Fair, to see, ou that, impor tant occasion, the South, and par ticularly Georgia, illustrated, and to meet and converse with our people, and have been met with the general response, “Weil, X have been wishing to visit, the South for many years, and I don’t know of a better opportunity than at your fair; I think X will come down then.” X believe we may confidently expect a large number of Northern visitors at, the next State fair. A good number of manufacturers and merchants from this city will attend with a stock of goods in their lines for exhibi tion. I intended to speak of some of the exhibitors in this letter, but find X will not have space. I will say, however, that our old friends of tlie Fairbanks and Ilowe Scales Compa nies will he down on a grander scale than ever before and will make a dis play that will astonish the natives. I leave for Boston to-morrow. J. Visiting Cards TN *ll the new styles—Tinted, Tinted Rep, Tinted Rep with Satin Stripe and Plain White. Price 60c per package, or printed in neat style $1 per package.
