The engineer’s story corroborated by John Rulla, the flreman, who also saw the balloon and watched it until itwasoutof sight. As the time since the de- parture of the Pathfinder“ increases, evi- vence of the location where it landed multiplies and there is a disposition prevalent among the public torender averdict to the effect that Like Michigan received the air-ship and its two passengers. A lev days afterwads news was received that Ten Heard is LIGHT STORMS had been raging on the lake, although damuge had been done to shipping. This, of course, isthe darkest side of the story, and theugh believed by many, there are guitea number that venture a different opinion. There are notafew whothink that the ad- venturers are safe and sound iu the woods of Michigan, and, though probably lost, are sus- taining life with berries ana game there to be found, little THE THEORY appears to gain adherents among the intimate friends ot Prefessor Wise and Mr. Burr, it being their only hope of the salvation of the two. ADVERTISING SCHEMES are becoming pientiful. Merchants residing in the towns on Lake Michigan are takiag ad- vantage of the suspense of the country over the missing seronants,by introducing their ad- vertisements to the publie with a large head- line referring to the disaster in a startling man- ner. AT CHICAGO several firms have bulletin boards in front of their stores announcing two or three times a day some canard in reference to tke finding of the lost voyagers, which always draws a crowd of cager readers. MR. J. L. WARDEN, | of that city, stopping at Barnum’ S. is authori- ty tor saving that two expeditions are being fitted out at Chicago, one for making a thorough senrch or the pineries of Michigan, and tne other withatast sailing yacht expect te start out in a few days on alengtuy cruise of investi- 1 Bothwt these ventures were originated encrgetic firins, who are adopting eng ian of ndvertisement on it large KC ale.

The troops were withdrawn 10 short distance, dismounted and deployed in line ot battle, with orders to await the attack ofthe Indians, but Cherry was here ordered by Thornburgh to take ajdetuchment of fifteen picked men ana Inake A reconnoissance and colinmunicate, 11 possible, with the Indians, us -it was thought that they only desired to oppose his upp reach to their agency and would parley or have a big talk if they could be communicated with. THE FIRST SHOT. Cherry moved out ata gallop with his men from the right ank, and noticed alike move- ment of about twenty Indians. From the left of the Indian position he upproacned to within a couple of hundred yards ot the Indians, took oft his hat and waved it, bit the response was a shot fired at hisu, wounding a man di Lis party and killing his horse. Tuis was the first shot and was instantly followed by ia volley from the Indians. The work had now begun in earnest, and seeing,the advantage of the pos- ition he held, Cherry dismounted his detach ment and deployed along the-crest of the hill, to prevent the Indians flanking his posi- tion, or to cover the retreat it found necessary, end to retire upon the wagon train which guarded by Lieu- Paddock of Company D, Fifth Cay- alry. THE TWO COMPANIES in advance were Capt. Payne’s Co. F, Fifth Cay- Luwson’s Co.

From Cherry's position he could see that the Indians were trying to cut him ott from the wagons and at once sent word to MajorTbornburgh, who then withdrew the line slowly, keeping the Indians in check, until opposite the poinc which his men tormerly had, when, seeing that the Indians were concentrating to cut off his retreat, Capt. Payne, with Co. F, Fifth Cavalry, was ordered to charge the hill, which he did in gallant style, his horse being shot under him and severalof his men wounded. The Indians having been driven from this point, the compeny was rallied enthe wagon-train. Mujor Thornburgh then gave orders to Cherry to hold his position and cover Capt.

Captain Lawson,a brave oid veteran, displayed the greatest, coolness and couraeé during this retreat, sending up anr- munition to Cherry’s men when once they were nearly without it. MAJOR THORNBURGH started back tothe wagon train after giving his final orders to Capt. Payne to charge the hill, ang to Capt. Lawson and Lieut.

IMPROMPTU FORTIFICATIONS, Payne, then in command, ut once set having the wounded horses shot for diswantling the wagons of boxes, bundles ot bedding, corn und flour sacks, which were quickly piled up for fortifications, Picks and shovels were used vigorously for digging intrench- ments. In the meantime a galling fire was concentrated upon the command from all sur- rounding biuffs which commanded the pon tion. Not an Indian could be seen, but the incessant cracks of their Sharps and Winchester rifles dealt fearful destruction among the horses and men. The groans of the dying and the agon- izing cries of the wonvded told what fearfn! havoe was being made among the determin and desperate command, every man bound to bell his lite as dearly as possible.

The fine art department is being well patron ized. The use ot the umbrella is as essential to day as yesterday. Awards are being made in partwent to-day. A smal) boy had his finger bitten by one of the monkeys this morning. In the morning the zoological garden at tracted larger crowds than any y other depart- ment. The farm machinery has received more at- tention to-day from the visitors than any pre- vious day. Should the attendance be much larger to- morrow than to-day the amphitheater will be inadequate to hold all. Many amusing instances took place this morning on the street cars bound tor the Fair, occasioned by thre crowded state of them. Several people trom the country camped in the vicinity of the grounds last night, being unable to secure a room tor love or money. The church booths are departing trom the usual custom of giving nothing for something. The Nerth Presbyterian Church especially is muking a strong effort to carry honesty into religious dinners. The howl of the dogs in the kennel-house can be henrd in the neighborhood of that department. Several people who heard the berking, not knowing of the show, ran there with the expectation of seeing a dog fight. LOCAL CRIME, Hattie Taylor Again.

AS LONG as advertisers insist upon edit- ing this paper as they do this Fair week, the editor is hardly responsible for what it contains, or what it does not contain. But he will take his revenge and give proper satisfaction as soon as Fair week is qver. Dr. PREETORIVS sometimes has a fine sense of humor. Alluding to the question ofthe New York Tribune why nothing is said about the second place of the Republi- can Presidential ticket, the Doctor gets off this hit: If the stalwarts and trade poli- ticilans succeed in renominating Grant, no Vice-President, of course, is necessary, as Grant has grown sons.”’ Mr. JUDSON’s triumphant re-election to the School Board is simply. and strictly civil service reform. He is the most cap- able member of the board, and while there was no reason for not leaving him in his present position there was every reason that he should stay there. Mr. Judson earned his popularity by his good sense, his perfect integrity and the energy and in- dustry with which he discharges every duty he uadertakes. SPEAKING about the value of adve ising, the Indianapolis Journal makes this/ sensi- ble observation : Take as an example the display made by the brewers of Cincinnati, which was described in newepapers throughout the country. It iden- tifled the city of Cincingati with the manufac- turing of lager beer in a way that never had been dove before, and thousands of people came to the conclusion, whetber true or not, that better beer is made in Cincinnati than in Milwaukee and Infianapoli If Cincinnati, by this means, can ure the lead iu the reputa- tion of Ll er lager and secure a monopoly of this trade, she thereby adds millions annually to ner wealth, Tun Anzeiger has a very sensible edito- rial about the importance of attracting im- migration to this State, and suggests the appointment of agents in the principal sea- Ports of Europe. But the chief difficulty in the way, according to our German con- temporary, is the Immigration Commission _ ‘itself, the composition of which the Angel- ber calls “one of the greatest blundering mistakes ever made by Gov. Phelps.“ It ‘thinks that if the whole board should follow the example of Mr. Henry Clay Dean and resign it would perfonm the greatest service to the State that it possibly can perform. “Tur perpetuity and indissolubility of the Union by no means implies the loss of 0 existence, or of the eae Vt Ah * 4 . 7 . 8 on * * e 1 — 1 „ .

No less a person than a Repu®lican Chief Justice of the Su- preme Court of the United States, Mr. Chase. } Tus part of Senator Thurman’s recent speech in Ohio well deserves to be read and reread: The long and never ending effort of consoli- dated capital, seeking special privileges by means of legislation: privileges that the mass of the people do not enjoy. The holder of Government bonds desires a strong national Government, in the belief that such a Govern- ment would give greater security and value to bis bonds. The mammoth railroad corpora- tion, running through many States, feels rest- ive under whatit considers the annoyances of State legislation. It would greatly prefer to State charters or State licenses a nation- al charter rendering it independ - ent of the States. The national bank interest. with its two thousand and odd banks, destined. if the system continue, to be tri- pled or quadrupted in uumber in no long peri- od of time, looks with complacency on the legislation of Congress that has destroyed the banking institutions of the State and given to the national system a monopoly of the issue and profits of bank paper money. The high tariff protectionists aud the seekers of subsi- dies alike desire a Government of almost un- limited power to gratify their wishes and fos- ter their schemes. In a word, almost or quite every form of concentrated wealth, except real estate, desires by eonstruction or other- wise to add new powers to the already tre- mendous powers possessed by the National Government. — — — — -- — — THE REAL CAUSE. Dr. Sears is probably the best authority now living upon the subject of public schools in the South. Prominently con- nected with the Peabody Educational Fund, it is a subject to Which he devotes all his time, his learning and his philanthropy. But though Dr. Sears presented in his last official report the most startling figures about the illiteracy of the South, we havé not yet observed that Republican papers, which profess to take such tremendous interest in the colored people of the South, have made the slight- est allusion to the report. Yet it contains an unintended answer to all the scoundrelly, scurrilous, sectional appeals against the South. The Republicans cry about Dixon and | Southern | South Carolina, Seren puch a South colored people have a majority over the ' ! g dispensable for self- protection to preserve Chisolm and shotguns and murders! Dr. Sears, without the slightest conscious- ness of its political effect, shows the terrible illiteracy among the | that in fiffu- we suppose, negroes—shows for instance, per cent of the adult roting | population cannot read the ballots they cast! } In Mississippi the proportion is still | greater. ask intelligent think Both in the Now, in all candor, we what they of things? and Republicans about state Carolina Mississippi But, in South Carolina and Mis- of the whites. sissippi, the majority whole veting | population cannot read the ticket they cast. As long as they castit by the direction | of thieves and in the interest of robbery, Republicans were satistied. Since they cast it for a decent government, the furious cry is raised that the negro vote is ‘‘sup- pressed.“ We ask candlid and intelligent Republi- cans again, suppose the negro vote, such as we have shown it to be, is suppressed? Is it not a necessity? Is it not absolutely in- law and property from barbarous ignor- ance and rapficity? Was it not an outra- geous crime, Against the Republic to have enfranchised these semi-savages ? We unhesitatingly assert that the negro the South pressed—should be vote in deserves to be sup- suppressed—must be suppressed as a matter of life and death whenever it attempts to repeat the horrible experience of the carpet-bag era. In those years the negro vote. ruled the South, and with what effect will be shown by these simple figures: States. ld debt. New debt.

But for it, Dix- Chisolm would alive and be But for it, there would be no irri- on to-day. tation, no provocation, no excitement, fear or agitation in the South, and no political crime whatever. It was a terrible crime against the Republic. Popular suffrage is popular sovereignty. Ignorant suffrage sovereignty, and, if continuing unchecked, is bound to eventually destroy all freedom and self- government. If there is any wrong in the South, the Republicans alone are to blame. They did it with their Fifteenth Amendment, with negro suffrage and carpet-bag robbery. The people of the South simply act upon the Darwinian theory—the struggle for existence. When for partisan motives alone the Re- publicans enfranchised the negro, they sowed the wind. Now they reap the whirl- wind. This is retributive justice. poisons Tux New York World manages to strike with equal force and ability in three different directions. It is the leading Dem- ocratic journal of New York. It is the most ferocious and able antagonist of Kelly and Tammany. It is the most vigorous and zealous champion of Governor Robin- son, and—what certainly seems strange at this distance—it is as vigorous against Mr. Tilden’s nomination. In its last issue, for instance, a leading editorial openly as- serted that the only doubt about Mr. Rob- inson’s election springs from the fear that its effect would be used by Mr. Tilden for political capital. The World says: If Mr. Tildeh desires to see as Governor see the Democratic party — 1 am * | place in the primaries and had | hone. us Benton willbe preseny and 2° as. tet ic PLAS re politicians and journalists claiming to repre- sent him, that he is planning and *contriving how to make the State eanvass of 18790 subsi- diary to his own renomination for the Presi- dency in 1880. Jf it were humanly possible either that he could be renominated in 1880,or that, being renominated in 1880, he could be elected, it would stillbe his dutyto do this. If every voter in the city and State of New York who prefers Robinson to Cornell were absolutely sure to-day that Mr. Tilden does not seek a Democratic renomination, thathe has taken no steps in any State to se- cure such a renomination, and that he will take no steps to secure such a renomination, the reclection of Governor Robinson would be assured beyond a peradventure. Mr. Til- den has only to call in his agents (whose exist- ence he has not denied), to disavow.the differ- ent persons now at work all over the Union in hisfhame under the immediate supervision of Mr. Barnum, and in good faith absolutely to retire from the personal promotion of his own candidacy in 1880. There will be little thought then of his renomination; and no reason leftamong New York Democrats to doubt the re-election of one of the best chief administrative officers New York has ever bad. SPIRIT OF THE PRESS. Augusta (Ga.), Chronicle (Dem.): Judge Black 1s a good enough Democrat for us. He denounces Kelley's bolt and thinks Tilden a great man, whose colossal wrong needs public and triumphant vindication. Philadelphia Herald (Ind.): It is rather a funny thing about the Ingalls investigation in Kansas that everybody accused of bribery de» nies the charge. It is obstinacy like this which causes the failure of so many investigations. St. Josepiu (Mo.) Gazette Dem) Have the better class of Indians any rights? If so, the peopleshould see that these rights are re- specited. If they have no rights we are in Honor bound to respect, then it makes no dif- terence how brutally the soldiers treat them. Pittsburg Gazette (Rep.) The cry against the Republican governments in the South was, that they were robbing the people and running the States into hopeless insolvency. Now, it seems, the very men who raised thiscry, and have since got control of Stute affairs, can plunder the people as complacently and syste- matically as the veriest carpet-bagger. New Yokk Star (Dem.): Inzother words, the people do not take a lawyer's view of Mr. Til- den's case. They dislike the man, dislike his methods, dislike the thought of his runninza secondtime, and without caring to argue the matter at all, they are resolved that he shall never, with their consent, emerge from the re- tirement and tranguuilitv of Greystone to as- sume the cares and Presidency.

Wants to Worship the Mayor. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: It is to be hoped that the smaller stores in the city willfollow the good example set by the larger ones by suspending business for half a duy atleast to morrow (Thursday), there- Wi giving their emfiloves an oppertunity of witnessing the prineipal yearly St. Louis, namely, the St. Louis Fair. It isa matter of regret that, while thousands of peo- ple deem it to their advantage and intellectual piofit to come long and tedious distances to visit the Fair, many hundreds of intelligent clerks and salesmen are denied this privilege mcrelyon account of the insatiabie desire for the mighty doliar on the part ot their employers, even the extent of stooping to pick up thecrumbs that fall from the tables of their more worthy, S\inpatbetic and liberal competitors.’’ A Gay that is declared a public holiday by the Mayor ofa city, becomes thereby the right and property of employes in that city, and to pursve business as usual after such deciara- tion is not only asiight uhon that office, but upon the person holding Hat office, and is also un infringement upon the rights and enjov- ments of the class lam endeavoring to repre- sent bere.

They have a story in Washington that Gene- ral Grant asked only one favor ot the Adminis- tration Which succeeded his, and that was that no position should be given to Mr. B. H. Bris- tow. It is quoted as sufficient proof that Pres- ident Hayes is a triend of the General that this request has been complied with.—[New York Tribune. This story is incorrect. When General Grant had his final interview with Mr. Hayes before leaving the White House, the latter asked if he had any personal requests to make—any friends he desired to have retained in office, or any ob- lization he would like carried out. Gen- eral Grant, in reply, made the requests: First, that Mr. Cramer relation, might de retained the mission to Denmark; second, that General Budeau, Consui-General to London, who had been on General Grant's personal! staff, might be :etained in order to complete the life of the General; and taird, that Smith, General Giant’s conchman for eight years, micht oe employed in the same capacity by Mr. Hayes. These requests were all granted by Mr. Hayes. It would have been a piece of gree sey on s the part of General Grant to ask that any man should not be appointed, which even he would not have been guilty of, anu an insult to whicheven Mr. Hayes would scarcely have submitted. General Grant made no requests of Mr. Hayes except those stated, nor bas he since esked any favor of the present Adminis- tration. — friends that the responsibilities of the 8 ; the secretary's Greenback Meeting—Fine Specimen of to-day stay at boats | Sulme size | attraction in Again the People are Waiting for the Pageant. — Another Jam in the Streets To-day and the Arrivals Greater than Yesterday. The Veiled Prophets Preparedto Take up the Line of March. It was a terrible disappointment. whatevery body thought last night, when it became apparent that the Veilea Prophets were not going to appear. The Post-DIsrPatcu was the mecium through which the oficial announcement of the postponement first became known. It wus hoped to the last that the clouds would have mercy on the city and grant the pageant, which so many thousands of people had come to see. But it wis hope against hope. it was no use. THE RAIN kept coming down utterly regardless of the wishes the Veiled Prophets or anybody else. The crowds surged to and iro under a sea of umbrellas. The street in front of the Post- raiting for the ‘‘Extra.’’ Finally the ‘‘Extra’’ appeared just as it was growing dark, and the crumpled, unfolded papers were snatched up by the newsboys, and in a few minutes scattered up and down all the prificipal streets. Thousands got a paper and, after a glance, thrust it into their peckets and went home to tell expectant Prophets had decided not to march. Butthere were thousands and tens of thousands who didnot geta paper and who ranged themselves ALONG THE SIDE-WALKS and waited for the gorgeous cavalcade. It did not come. The people became restiess and went from place to place as if they did not know whatto do. Many of them had no sleep- ing place for the night. They had come in on the tiains yesterday, expecting to go back at 11 O clock last night. Could they wait over and see the Prophets to- night, or would they miss the grand sight entirely, and go back home? Some returaed home on the midnight trains, some found beds, and some Kanaan become densely packed with people * REMAINED UP ALL NIGHT.

There was never betore in the city sucha packed d jammed mass of wet and disappointed humanity. And yet every body took it philosophically. ‘The gor- geous Veiled Prophets could not be expected to come out into the rain and spoil the shin- ing gaiments. This morning there appeared te be quite as many people on the streets as yesterday. THE RAILROAD PROrLe report more in-coming passengers to-day than yesterduy.

On one of the principal streets inthe neigi- boring village of Highland, III., is the High- land Bank, opposite which are the residences of A. D. Bendlaiere and Maurice Hugge, both officers of the bank. Between these two houses is the store and residence ot Joseph Rupf, a furniture deal er. Abont a week ago Rupfthought to enjoy himself and lay aside the cares ot his business. Ihe means he adopted to accomplish his end was a‘‘giorious drunk Hestarted in, ant during the first stages was joytul and troubied no one. He afterwurds becomes cross and abusive to his wife. Twice he set his shop afire by carelessly emptying his pipe into the shavings that were strewn over the floor.On one occasion the flames were extin- guished by neighbors, but on another it was found necessary to callout the Highland Fire Department. Besides this he was abusive to his wife and neighbors. Messrs. Bendlaiere and Hugge determined to bring Kuptto his Senses, and with this object in view proceeded. to the saddlery shop ot Charles Suppiger, not a great distance from their oon houses. Here they each pur- chased A BLACK-SNAKE WHIP and made known their intentions to Suppiger, who acceeded to the request to take partin chastising the disorderly furniture dealer. 80 exch armed himseil witha whip and proceeded tothe house, where they found Rup! playing his pranks. They began work and adwinis- tered a sound thrashing to the unruly man, Which soon sobered him. They then returned to their respective houses after congratulating each other on the success of their expedition. For two days he broode! over his wrongs, and determined to end his sorrows by suicide. To accomplish this he procured and swallowed some poison supposed to be prussic acid. A physician Mud calicd to attend him, but PRONOUNCED ILIS CASK HOPELESS, * Atter taking the poison he refused any con- sclution until he found that death was near athand. Hethen wexhened and had a clergy- man to attend him. Yesterday morning ne cied. The Coroner held an trnquest yesterday and returned averdict of death from po soning. The widow was not satisfied with the verdict, us she believed the whipping was the real cause ofit and soughtthe doctor who attend- ed him. He assured herthat death was the result of the poison alone. — — — > — A PAIR OF NEW BOOTS. They Gave a Rural Gentlemana Great Deal of Trouble at the Theater Last Night. There was @ rural cap in the Opera-hous¢ last night who created about as much amusé- ment as sweet Evangeline. He had evidently ‘ventured out from home with a pair of new boots on. The result was disastrous. He was sitting down in the parquette in full view of everybody. Atthe end ot the first act the tor- ture became so great thut he determined to shed; so he squared himselt and pulled off both boots with infinite gusto, giving a sigh of relief and uttering several congratulatory re- marks as he did so that could be heard all Over the house. He watched the second act of the play with composure, but soon after the third act began he concluded to put on bis new. boots and get ready for the finale. Putting on these boots was a terrible ordeal. It involved a gieat deal ot swearing, sweatand labor. He put both hands down upon the straps and in asteoping position began to — for allthat was out. He pulied and oulled, and still the boot was refractory. He icked the toe against his neighbor’s seat, and stamped bis heel upon the floor. It waa no go. He pulled off his @eoat aud unbuttoned his paper collar, to put himself in osition for another tris] something after the stvle of the Lone Fisberman in his frantic efforts to get a big fish out of the water. Tue whole audience was in a titter, but the chap from the country was indif- fepent. The house became so uproarious that it looked as though the play could not v0 on. Tre eagle eye ot John W. Norton sawthe situation and he sont one of the ushers down to tell the man trom the country to desist until after the perform- ance, when he would bezgtven plenty of time even it it required the burning of ten dollars worth of gas. Witk this understanding the new boo were laid aside until Evangeline and Gabriel got mariied and the curtain went down. The ast heard of the wan from the country he was struggting with those boots, two or three anxious ushers standing avout him watcuing the operation. — „ Amusement Notes.

His Dulcet Voice Again Sounding in Be- half of the ‘‘Nation’’—The Sort of Editori- ais They Read in the North. [From the Lemars (lowa) Sentinel (Rep.)!

Wednesday of Fair Week opened with brighter prospects than any other day during the show. The weather was all that the most hypercritical signal service could demand. The sun came out with a calm nnconsciousness of bis stormy setting yesterday that boded well for the Veiled Prophets to-day. The crowdin the city has seldom been à larger one, the sleeping accommoda- tions ot the town have been tried to their — extent, and many passed the night wandering in the streets and trying to findsome place to sleep. Doorsteps were captured by some, and their first night spent in the open air. The hotels have cots all through the halls ahd parlors, and yot they are utterly unable te accommodate the throng. Ot course this vast concourse of Hadjis to- day make the Fuir their Mecca, and every car on every line has been loaded down since early morning with people. To-day is wr phatically the car drivers’ carnival, all the repressed rebellion in their nature comes tothe surfice, and they cheek the discousolate parties who are left va the corners unmercifully. a GETTING ON THE CARS, at the best, is a labor involving much knowledge of bodies in motion and human natuie, but when the process is com- plicated by the presence of forty-eight passen- gers in a bob-tail car, it becomes very difticult, The best people to make the connection are the sturdy females who dwellin the regions clustered about O'Fallon, Bigaile and Cass avenue. Not only do they triamphantiy elbow their way in, but also they either tage u seat or sit in a bashtul passenger's lap. The drivers are intensely sarcastic in their remarks to belated individuals, who can't by any possibility get in, requesting them if they are ladies to climb over the dash board, or it —— to get on top. ‘be driver on the car which bore the Posr- DISPATCH representative to the grounds this morning was a philosopher atter his kind.

THE HUM OF VOICES noticen le'so strongly on Mond y was distin- guisbabie, although in a less degree, but the crowd was gertainiy larger, and a steadily augmenting stream of people kept pouring through all the gates. Rustic courtships begun beneath the mighty timbers of the primeval forests round about St. ICuis were continued by amorous Corins and Chloes who wandered about the show pastorally hand in hand, eating the superficial popcorn and sucking the unctuous taffy. Lovers of amore urban and less demonstrative character wandered out among the animals, gazing syimpathetica'ly at the turtle Goves ana watelling where even the bears in couples agreed. There was an Indian summer effect on the things ard people, everybody seemed to take a tresh hold on lite and enjoy ment, und the universal verdict is that to-day is the most successful of the Fair.

Amphitheater. As early as nine o'clock the people began to flock tothe amphitheater, and by ten a. m. there were several thousand seated on the wooden benches. It is difficult to explain the fascination which the arena exercises over the crowds. Surely there cannot be anything particularly exhilarating in watching some halt-dozen draft horses led, intothe ring; then three Wise and sage men, selected for their wisdoin and knowledge of equine form, consult and talk and gaze at the stalwart steeds, Walk around them, dot down their points,sum up the total and afterconsum- ing consicerable time in this by no means uni- mated or interested scene fer the spectators, tie a blue ribbon on one animalandared on another. Yet there must be a fascina tion in ww. For the Amphitheater is almost alwaysthecentral point of attraction on the grounds. Thitherwards both urban, suburban aud rural visitors wend their way and pass hour after hour watching the judg- ing. The track was harrowed and put into condi- tion this morning. The Knights of Pythias Band did its daily devoir and enlivened the tiecting moments with inspiriting strains, and so wagged the time. This morning, for the first time, Grand Mar- shul Fi S.

From the New York World.! see no daily papers except those of Utica. Ihave no political correspondents. I live upon mv farm, and meet but few who speak of pub- lic affairs. My ignorance does not spring from indifference, but from an inability to take puirt in political discussions. I have not only de clined many invitations to make addresses upon various topies, but I have had to cancel the engagements which I made last vear, and which 1 was anxious to keep. Ihave left my home but once ortwice during the season. I have no ideas about the pending election othe! than those which grow out of my hopes and wishes for the success of the Demo cratic party. What little I have to say will be shuped by my experience in the past, and not by apything I know of -th) present state of affairs. [stall not speak of the eite of New York, for the voters there bave ways of their own so unlike those of other parts of the State that it is idle tor a mere countryman to speca- late about their action. „Lust vear one section of the Democratic party united with the Renublicans and elected a mixed ticket. This year another organiz «ion refuses to vote for Gov. Robinson. On the other hand many Republicans in the city will support him. The editor of the World knowa much more than | do of the probable re salts in New York. If we turn to the country I caa speak with more contidence. I think that Messis. Robinson and Cornell will run evenly with their respective tickets. There is open Cpposition to each of them, at this time, in their lrespective parties, and if the State tickets were the only ones in the feld, the extent of these defections might determine the result. **I think that outside of the larger cities tha votes for Governor Robinson ant Mr. Cornell wil depend upon the strength otf their respec- tive parties. My hopes are tuat the Demytratic party will succeed, I think that our present stute Officers have dene their duty taichtully and weil, All men, ol course, Gannet agree upon all their acts, ap each Of Luem bas done things which zu may not approve But 1 co not. think thet mauy Democrats, in the rure’ gistricty Certainly, will be disposed hum themselves, toinjure their own t iends and to liszard the success of their political principles merely on account of particular acts or for the sake of fle eting personal dislikes and ranlor supposed tojuries.

(New York Herald Cable Dispatch. | LONDON, October 6.—The mass meetings which yesterday assembled al over Ireland to discuss the famous land question form to-day atheme of lively debate. According to this morning's papers, they show that two currents are at work. The more moderate men advocate as a prac- tical step the concentration of all the coun- try’s energy in procuring a total change of the existing s,;stem of ish land tenure, and in making the ferme either owners of the soil or eint owners with the landlords. This scheme would involve itte disiccation of existing arrangements for he dist, {>utiog Of land. It could be accomplishe by developiig the principles ui Mr. Gladstone's Lend Act. Jhé wajority ot experiénced par- Hamentary men support tlie view. Mr. Far- nell and others of the more extreme sec say that it is an excellent plan in itself, and yet does not meet the urgency of the impend- ing ¢risis. The tenants should refuse pay rents which bave been always oppressive, or which are made so by the pressure of hard times. If they were to stand The Irish Between » all over Lreland they could not all be driven off theland. There was no need of physieal force; passive resistance would secure the victory.

There is no doubt that they will resist, and thas they will strive to obtain trom the governimems such measures as may fortify their resistance. The Duke of Hamilton's Escapades.

On account of the Sunday law the German citizens of Calvert have formed a social club which meets every Sunday near town, At Comanche a number of citizens prevented prisoners in jail by their timely arrival—tifty men got there first.

The tariff on a bale of cotton from Denison to Galveston isjustthe same as trom Waco to Galyeston—$4 60. Yet Denison 1s nearly twice the distance trom Galveston that Waco is. At Dangerfield, a merchant’s clerk went to wake him up in the morning, but the proprie- tor, drunk, fired sevetal ghots at the young man, who got out of the way at a double quick.

The True Inwardness of Building the Seats in the Court-Honse Yard. it isa Private Speculation and Not for the Beriefit of the Ve led Prophets. The true inwardnees of the building of the seats in the Court house yard is yet to cone out. There wasa good deal of unfavorable comment about the matter yesterday an dau before. Was it a private speculation ? If {so it ought not to be allowed. What right had any private party to make use of the public property of the citv for person?’ gain. It wus announced that tickers for these seats could be purchased for $1 CO a piece at Balmer & Weber's. Tiis-was The “plats were down there anda man ready to sell the tickets to all who came to buy.

It was urzed that the public has 1 right to the use ot public grounds, and that such is the Court-house yard. So interesting did the question become, and so great tue indignation over it, thatthe IP DISPATCH sent a reporter up to MAYOR OVERSTOLZ to ask him ii he knew anything about it. The report of the interview, as givenin the paper yesterday afternoon, is as follow q „The Mayor said the seats were being erected by the authority of the President of the Bourd ot Public Works. Application had been first made to him (the Mayor) and he referred it to Col. Flad,-who said he saw no objection to the project. The Mayor then approved this opin ion, and the desired permisston was granted. Mayor Overstolz said he understood that it was being done for the benefit of the Veiled Proph- (ts. This was) at once consoling if true. If the Veiled Prophets were to get all the dollars paid for all the teats being put up it was satisfactory to everybody. The Veiled Propnets had gone preat expense, and if they could some ot their money back a legitimate way it was ail right. tut stin there was a doubt.

The demand tor loans to-day was steady and liberaland without noticeable change from that of vyvesterday. Discount otferings were large 01 bills for carrying and shipping, and business paper on account of jobbers and manutacturers. In addition the small offerings were large iu number, all told muking an active demand. Currency orders were tairly active, but not so lurge as yesterday. Receipts were moderate. New York exchange is quotable nominally at G0c@$1l 50 discount. ö Stocks were irregular andfunsettled. but on the whole a trifie stronger than yesterday.

The Jobbing Trade. The city is full of strangera, many of whom have come to buy as well as kee the sights, and jobbers and merchants were never so busy as now. St. Louis people seem at present to be composed entirely of three separate classes, viz.: Those who cater to the ere, second, those who sim to satisfy the claims of hunger and those who attend strictly to dis wares. It is, in truth, a harvest for t. Louis. Reviewing the market briefly as a whole, values are strong on nearly every- thing; where advances are not made the gener- al tendency is upward. GRrockRies.—Coffece shace higher. The sharp and prime has stimulates the grades, aS is usually) the case, the latter have appreciated sharply. The speculative, or semi speculative, tendency at present is shown by the change in the charac- ter of purchases at the East,buyers now looking us u rule only for large parcels. An evidence of substantial strength is also shown by the marked tendency of jobbers toload up above actual current necessities. In sugar there ts little chung, although values continue to har- den. Yellows ure scurce ani bring full prices. Canned goods are es- pecially strong, although tomatoes are most prominently so. The coo) weather a teow weeks ago caused quite a furry, and packers with contracts are having to contend against un unexpected advance in cans. Ruisins are easier by reason ot the inXux of the new crop, but other foreign fruits are firm. Domestic dried fruits are stiflening, influenced by a market scunt on choice. Nails are again higher, now quoted at $3 75, rates; low water in the Ohio, is the great ‘*bull’’ now. Dry Goops.—Business, which dropped off somewhat lust week, in anticipation of ‘‘Fair week,’’ began to boom again enormous influx of strangers and country deu- ara, and as we write the jobbing houses are taxed to theutmost. With : and-sieep, posing vo! is again strong and a advance in choice demand for low and values ot fac. lities Of the Was - esday with the all the activity there is a feeling of ut the cotton Boats d pring mark mainly On aceount of the, u many ne 98, unpwerrarted advances aude cariyin the sea sou. One will find that revisions now made are almost entirely in the shape of declines ‘that only the stronupst ot standard , and very few of them are holdiayg stea@y. In prints, Dunnell, American, Hartel and Gloucester fancies are alljiown. Fruit de Leom bleached cottons and several makes of brown goods are also lower. ‘LUMBER.—Notwithstanding the expressed be. lief a week or two ago that the advance then last made in white pine was probably the last this season, we have aguin to chronicle still higher figures. The demand is unprese- dentedly lurge from all parts of the country, and the market is not ouly stiff, but strong at quotations given to-day. The present advance is generally trom 81 50 to $32 uo per thousand on jumber, and 5@10c on shingles, Eau Claire extra clear shingles showing a greater advance than agy omer kind as yet. METALS—AS in the case of lumber, so in m:t- als we have to note afresh advance in nearly all lines of our metal list. The demand is ac. tive und the market very firm. De ders stand on guotations and say they cannot afforito ofier concessions to effect sales. Tin plates are up 25@50c, zine 4c, Copper 2c, and sheet-iron yc per lb. Fisu.—The advance promised last week on mackerel came promptly aud jobbers are now out with a curd showing higher figures to the extent ot a dollar a barre! on No. 1 me liun, No. 3 medium tamily and No. 1 bay; and u de- clice of $2@3 on No. Lshote and extra sore und No. 1 and extra mess.
