Bell & Bro. have some exquisite Jewelry and plated-ware in the same case, in the centre, on the right hand from the front entrance hangs a beau tiful moss picture, on either side and directly under it are some grass pic tures of beautiful d?sigu and execution. As you pass down from these, you will see some fancy wood work, splendidly done. Then next ; shell work, in the shape of frames, then some frames, imitation of Rustic work, wrought : in leather, which arc simply exquisite, i A cross of wax flowers is standing ' near, the work of some fair hand, j which certainly deserves much credit. Then comes a natural curiosity, a pine i burr, it is a cluster, and has between i 75 and 100 opriprntft and distinct bnrra j 7 r . 1 on it, the only thing of the kind we j have ever seen. Next are some speci mens of bead work, which is very I pretty. Next, in the corner is some specimens of Job printing from i Edwards, Broughton, & Co., at Kal eih, which are fine. On the wall at the end hangs some oil paintings that are exquisitely beautiful ; on the other side are some 1 b V 1 , 1 Q nf home knit gloves, and one pair of socks by a young lady, who raised the cotton, picked the seed out carded, spun and knit the same.

The Tzir Yesterday. Yesterday was a grand day for the Fair. The weather was delightful m o bright sun, and pleasant breezes ; and the crowd on the Fair grounds 5m- mense, variously estimated at four to .1 , . - . 8lX 8V e than the 8rand 8tand,den8ely packed with ladies, their bright and varigated head dress- es flutteiing in the breeze, and their brighter, sweeter faces, beaming with rational enjoyment, is rarely seen. Bnt we have not space to indulge in a lengthy remark on this subject : About 11 o'clock, Mr. James T. Morehead, of Guilfcrd appeared on the stand tosupply the place of Mr. Aiken, of South Carolina, who was "booked" to make an address to the Grangers and the publio on this occasion. A large number of the members of the order entered the Grounds in proces sion, confidently expecting to hear Mr. A., who is well known to be one of the ablest orators of the Order in the South. The live stock exhibited is not so large and varied as last year. But what is lost in number and variety may be made up in quality. There are quite a number of very excellent horses, mules and jacks ; several lots of fine sheep, bulls, cows, calves, and hogs. Mr. Wm. Howard will proba bly take the premium on sows and pigs ; and Dr. Kimbrough of Davie, the premium on Stallions. The other stock was so nearly balance in quality, that our unpractieed eye could make no decision. The show of Agricultural imple ments is also smaller than last year. The advent of Col. Underhill, of Baltimore, with a number of imple ments, such as seed drills, horse hay rakes, straw cutters, cider and wine mills and presses, Ac, Sra, was fortu nate for the appearance of the grounds appropriate to this class of Goods. Messrs. Meroney & Bro. were on hand with the Farmers' Plow, and a few other articles in that line. The new est thing out is Dr. O. Shemwell's Iron Wheel Scraper and Cultivator, patented, July 1874 ; designed chiefly for the cultivation of cotton, for which purpose it is said to be admirably adapted of lieht one-horse draft. There were a number of other exhibi-! tnra ?n hia flrrf mpnt nffprincr for inspection various lesser machines which the limits of this paper will not admit of describing.

Tbe bargain was coaehaded, the devil was to supply tbe money ' and was at last to to bare tbe soul no less the young man could spend more money than tbe devil could furbish. Tears railed a war. the man married, was extravagant in his liv ing, built palaces, speculated and lost aad gave away fortunes, aad yet bis coffers were always full. He turned politician, nd bribed bis way to power and fame L without reduciug his pile of gold. He became a filibuster, and Sued oat ships and armies, bat his banker honored all his drafts. He went to London to live and paid tbe usual rates of interest for ail the money be could borrow, bnt though tbe devil made wry faces when be came to pay the bill, yet tbey were all paid. Oue expedient after another failed ; the devil counted tbe time, oaly two yeais that be must wait for the soul, and mock ed at the efforts of tbe despairing man.

The Colonel tries to re lieve tbe late Emperor from all response bility in regard to the march to Sedan and to attribute tbe determination to mors forward instead of falling back on Paiis to Marshal McMahon. Now, in lb letters winch napoleon 111. wrote to Field Marshal Burgoyne eiplaioing that march, hts Msjesty said it had been ren dered necessary by political events. Was Marshal MacMahon left quite to himself, as Col. atofiel saya, influenced like Ba saii.c by political motives, or did tbe late Emperor sit down and write a falsehood darosging to bis own character 1 It is well known that tbe Emperor was afraid to fall back on Paris, which before Sedati was in a state of semi-insurrection.
