One of the most reliable cotton buyers of the city expressed the opinion, however that" the lowest point had been arrived at, and that prices will soon begin to improve. t .r J:.t, . ; As low as itis. the price was as high here in Charlotte yesterday .as it was in ; Charles- ton. and not only waii.lt ; so yesterday, but this is almost always the case of late.- This may seem strange t first, Charleston being a seaport city and possessing all facilities for shipping; but it is explained-by the compe tition which exist between the various rail road lines running out rem Charlotte. So great is this competition that a bale of cot ton is now shipped, from Charlotte to New York for $2.70, whereas a year or two ago $4.50 was necessary to carry a bale from here there. These competing lines nut in the pockets of the farmers, because they, enable.Charlotte buyers to pay higher for cotton than they could otherwise, and they- do buy on as ulose margin as it is possible to do. . A cotton buyer came here recently from another city to buy; he remarked, after several weeks, that he had not gone in yetr as he was waiting for the Charlotte market to fall. "My dear sir ,Jr said one of the old est factors in the city, to whom , he was talk ing, "I have been waiting for twenty years for this market to go down,nd it has never done it vet." - So Itis) cptcoix ii low in New York, now; and, consequently, low here. High or low, Charlotte pava as " close on to New York priees as-anyplace of equal facilities for tmhsportatQOftlPtteBoatlfand there are few plates oS$ facilities are as good. -v in i" mfi i mi! !

Those criminals who are convicted in his cotufVaad who" are unable or who from any cause, do , not pay their cose and ,fine, he will jiencefOrth1 put to work on the streets, under charge of "Street Commissioner Northey. This rule went into effect yesterday morning, and Ellis Brown, colored, will contribute his muscle for a few days to the improvement of the streets. These characters will be allowed $1 per day, and at this price will work out of their cap tivity. ' This is a good idea. To confine these chronic .criminals in the lock up, accom dishes no good whatever. They do the uty no . gopa locked up an the caJapoose, j sou me oniy ining uiai can oe saia in iavor i of the plan, is that while in these they do no harm. Being locked' up is no ' punish menttcr tftem. ThejTjgo in frequeHtlf' lh gangs, are fed by their cronies, and ' have quite a nice time. When they get out they go and do over immediately the very thing for which they were first confined . The only defect in this system is the dif ficulty of keeping' .them at work.

GambliBgr on Fair Grounds. j The bane of North Carolina Fairs has been that a horde of gamblers, confidence men and swindlers of every degree, have been licensed to; ply their trades without let or hindrance in the face of the visitors to these exhibitions. 'Respectable- ipeole have been disgnstodwith this licensed pillage; and' naturally so. Fairs have fallen into disre- pute more on this account, than anyfother, and people are disinclined to take "hold of them when it is almost certain 'that the lion's share of the money spent on the grounds, will go to enrich these sharks. ":-r . We were glad when the New Fair of the Carolinas was organized, that it was - given out that nothing of this sort would be toler ated on the grounds". vTrcanffot4'ta denied that this gambling did more to biing the last Fair held in Charlotte into bad odor, than all other causes combined. The voice of the people- and of half the press bt th? management of the Fair kf this respect, and had it not been a&ounced and understood when this new association sprang up on the ruins of the old one. that all eambline and catch-penny tricks would be religiously ex cluded ! from the erounds. the enterprise would never have received from the public and the press of the two Carolinas, the countenance which has been given it. We hope the managers of the New Fair of the Carolinas will persist in their resolution in regard to this matter. They may lose a hundred or two dollars inst at nresent. bat it will all come back in its own good time. If the same course is persisted in this year which prevailed last, it will be useless to attempt to ever hold another Fair in Char lotte, at least for years to come. We' guess we know what we are. ialking about. We know public sentiment in regard to this as well, perhaps, as any one else does, and we sound the alarm in time. But the gentlemen have - seen for them selves, how this thing works, and have had the wisdom to abandon the short-sighted poliey which has previously obtained. We commend them heartily for the course they have taken in this respect, and assure them they will find in the long run, that itis good policy. We are glad to be able to in vite our country friends to come to the Fair and have no fears of meeting at every turn on the grounds, a fellow ready to size their pile and send them on, moneyless.

CoL D. G. Maxwell received the following dispatch last night, ' from J. W. Crawford, Esq., of Augusta, Ga : " Running horses will ' arrive in the morning. G ive them what they want. Two stables ' of trotters and myself, will come Saturday." Crawford is noted as a successful man of the turf.. He had several splendid racers at the Atlanta Fair, and these will be here. The horses which have thus far been entered for the -1 ...... . t races next week, are infinitely better and of finer reputation than any that before ap peared on the North Carolina turf. Hitchcock's seven . horses arrived yester day morning, as per announcement. They are thorough , breed and their very appear ance, has excited an enthusiasm among .the " horse men " of the city. - ." - Our Press Dispatches. The reader has observed that our press dispatches have been few in number recent ly. This is no fault of ours, or of the ope rator here. Press dispatches always have to yield the wires to commercial and private business, and this business has been so heavy since the opening of the fall trade that "press" has been almost entirely excluded. It will, perhaps, be ' better ere long. New Advertisements. fJHE LAST FIRE IN CHARLOTTE.
