THE STATE FAIR,
As we have previously stated, the
State Fair this fall will he held in At
lanta. It will open October 15th and
continue one week. The fair will be
managed exclusively by the State Ag'
ricullural Society, and a committee will
soon meet in Atlanta to arrange a full
premium list. Every premium will be
cash. Oglethorpo Park will be put in
the best possible condition, and ample
accommodation will be afforded lor all
visitors and exhibitors We predict
that the fair this year will be the grand
est exposition Georgia has ever witness
ed. There was no fair held last year,
and hence greater interest will be felt
in the coming one. The people, we
believe, feel anxious for a good fair that
will represent the talent and industry
of our grand old State, and they will
be prepared everywhere to put their
best foot foremost to make the affair a
success. The State Agricultural Soci
ety will leave no stone unturned, nei
ther will the people of Atlanta neglect
to do their duty. Now let everybody
go to work in town, c ty and hamlet—
everywhere—and let there be a display
worth witnessing, We would like to
see a premium offered for the best coun
ty exhibit and wo would like to see
Gordon county spruce up and take it-

Washington, D. C. Mar. 26, 1877.
Editor Calhoun limes :
Much hope came on Saturday even
ing to the Southern gertlemen stopping
here in the interest of good govern
ment in Louisiana and South Carolina.
They claimed to have new assurances
from the President. lam afraid, how
ever, that no matter how honest and
earnest Mr. Hayes may be in his wish
to leave the Southern States to manage
their own affairs, the time has gone by
when he could have done that without
incuriing the bitter opposition of a
jority of his party, and that he is not
the man to face that. It is certain,
however, that men usually well in
formed are confident that the President
and a majority of his Cabinet are de~
termined to remove as rapidly as possi
ble every vestige of Federal interfer
ence with the proper powers of the
States.
The new civil service rules are to be
promu’gated this week, and they are
said to be, at least theoretically, an im
provement on any heretofore in force.
The “ competitive examination ” is
omitted. This whole subject is one
little unde: stood in tins country, and
wo must probab’y wait man} years for
the full benefit of any system that may
be adopted. The one certain tlung is
that a change is necessary in the man
ner of selecting men to be appointed,
and that a rigid examination into the
efficiency of those already ia office
shou dbe made. Messrs. Evarts and
Schurz are responsible for the new
rules.
The suit of one Biggins against Ex-
President Grant is attracting attention
more than it ought if the man is in
sane, as is alleged. But he has accu
mulated a handsome fortune by selling
groceries to Government clerks, and
that argues not only saoity but a re
markable degree of business shrewd
ness, and bis friends really believe that
he has a just claim tor damages against
his excellency, and that when the 3ase
comes to trial he will present astonish
ing evidence. Genera! Grar.t has cer
tainly paid more attention to the suit
than most men wouli be likely to i f
the alleged wrong was the mere whim
of an insane man. Biggin’s counsel are
men in good standing at the Washing
ton Bar.
The National Republican up to
March 4th, the most nasty and violent,
organ of carpet bag radical Republic
canism, is now a conservative paper,
with all that the name implies. It
abuses its (ate pets, like Packard and
Kellogg, in language that Democratic
papers would not use. It is bound to
be an oigan, an organ or die. It has
of late taken to giving elaborate praise
to the President’s horses. It may be
called the stable organ of the adminis
tration. There is room for a respecta
ble morning paper here.
John D. Defrees, of It diana, and
Col A. G Otis, of Ohio, are now the
most prominent candidates for Super
intendent of the Government Printing
Office. Dt.lrees has held the off! e be
fore. Otis is a practical printer, has
been foreman of the Government of’
fice, and was an officer in Hayes’s reg
iment during the war. Defrees has the
political influence, and Otis the g' od

office is getting to cost the country I
nearly as much as the whole Govern
ment cofst rn the early day 3. and needs
an hone-t, careful and expei ieneed man
for its head.
The intended foreign appointments
are kept very quiet, though no doubt
determined on. It may be that Mr
Evarts commenced to write out some 1 f
the appointments and is unable to stop
It is said that Rufus Choate could wiite
fifteen p'gos without using a period,
but ho was an infant in composition by
the side of the Secretary of State.
The intended retirement -of Secreta
ry Schurz, to accept appointment as
Minister to Prussia, has be n denied
and re affirmed For one reason his
retirement would be regretted. Delias
announced a determination to re-organ
ize his department, and that most de
sirable chauge may not be carried out
by his successor whoever he may
be.
Interest in the organization of the
next House is very great. There will
certainly be an eff >rt to elect a Haves
Speaker by the aid of such Democrats
as can be induced to vote with the Re
publicans I have rot met a conserva
live man who believes in the success of
such a scheme, or who could name any
of the Democrats likely to countenance
it.
it is altogether likely that the
scheme cf sending a commission into
Louisiana will fail. Aside from the
lack of necessity for any such proceed
ing—all the information necessary fora
settlement of affairs being already pub
lished—there is a disinclination on the
part of men of standing to take any
part in it. Reno.
Astronomers have discovered, with°
in the past few weeks, that a dreadful
conflagration has been going on in the
beautiful constellation of the Swan.—
Some mighty sun has undoubtedly been
destroyed, alongside of which our earth
would look like a boy’s marble. The
distance is calculated about 3.10.000,-
000,000,000,0000, —or it may only be
300,000,000,000,000, — but it is no

In range of work this machie canrot be equalled. Will work equally well on
or thin goods, from gauze to heaviest beaver coatings, or even leather, without eba
of needle, tension or thread. AVe will warrant them to do this ! Our fine work is
to sny. and our heavy work excels that of any other machine in the wor.d.
The machine mikes the celebrated lock stitch (the stitch invented by Mr. Ho
on both sides. The tensions are positivr both upp<r and lower thread. The
tension is u on the thread as it leaves thhuttle, and not upon the bobbin, as in
machines, i.nd t is tension is invariable, whether the bobbin be full or nearly em
is obtained by turning a screw in the shutt’'-, and can be changed in a moment,
taking out the work, breaking the thread breading through holes.
What we claim, in substance is, that thit is an honest machine, au and if put
family will do any and all of your work pei ectly, will last a lifetime, is a willing
ready servant, and i a not subject to FITS.
Persons who have tried all machines ar unanimous in declaring this to be the eat ‘
learned of any in the market In the c ajority of cases our customers learn from '
instruction book without further aid.
EVERY MACHINE WARRNTED.
If you are thinking of buying, and are prejudiced in favor of any partie
machine, at least examine the “ Howe” before you purchase.
