STATE NEWS. Gkanvhjje County Agricxxtural. Fatr. This fair, the first held in the State, if not in the South since the termination of the war, virtually closed yes-erday, although some portion of tho company -will remain at Henderson to-day, when the prizes, pre miums, diplomas, &c, will be distributed. We have time only to say that it was in all points a great success and did credit to the manufacturing, farming, gardening and house-wife skill of old Granville. We shall speak of the affair as it deserves in our next, by which time tho effects of the grand ball, on Thursday evening, will be abated if not worn off. Raleigh Progress. Board of Intern aij Improvements. We understand that Governor Worth, who is ex officio President of the Board of Internal Improvement of the State, and the mem bers thereof, Dr. J. G. Ramsay, of Rowan, and P. II. Winston, of Bertie, will leave this city next Tuesday, on a tour of inspec tion through the Albemarle and Chesapeake ship canal. They propose to go by way of Weldon and Norfolk, and we commend the party to our old friends in the "twin cities" I rf "-hit nmmnn linrhnr " T'hev 1-nnttr I how to receive and entertain their distin guished fellow citizens of other States, and delight in showing respect as well as hospi tality to North Carolinians of the right stripe. Raleigh Progress. Resigned. Calvin J. Cowles, Esq., has tendered his resignation as a member of the Council of State, 'iiiis step was indu ced, v-e understand, by the fact that he had become a candidate for the Legislature, and, if elected, would be disqualified from taking his seat in that body, if he had con tinued to hold the former position. Special Term. Hon. Ralph P. Buxton, Judge of the Superior Court of Law and Equity, has been appointed by the Gover nor to hold a special t?rm for tho county of Chatham, on the first Monday in Decem ber next. Couldn't get Shavel- But got Shot at. A negro, as black as the simon pure Afri can, wearing a federal uniform, stepped in to the barber shop of our friend Jimmy Smith, yesterday afternoon, and demanded to be shaved, which demand was not com plied with. The negro thereupon became enraged, and spoke of his rights, using threats and other language not becoming one of his eoler, when to his surprise, a big stick upon his cranium, causing him to 'vamose the ranehe," pursued by some one unknown, who. failing to overtake the dar kie, sent a leaden missile after him from the barrel of a pocket pistol, which did not t ike effect.

The increased activity in business circles, within tho last few days, has been very perceptible, though there is not near as much as was exhibited this time last season. There aro very good reasons for this. In consequence of the backwardness and short comings of the crop, caused by the continued drought, un interrupted wet weather and the inadequa cy of labor, but little produce of any kind lias been received thus far, in comparison with previous years. The farmers are con siderably behind in packing, hence the ap parent inactivity. Business, however, it is believed by some of our most successful dealers, will be brisk and lively in a few days, and a large trade is anticipated. Our business men are well prepared, with large stocks for a heavy trade, and offer unusual inducements to thove trading with them. Hal. Prepress. Business Activity. The Charlotte Times sua s : " The streets have been crowded for the past few days with wagons loaded with the ileecy growth of a hundred cotton fields. The result is great activity in every depart ment of business. The merchants are smiling and good natured, and the clerks busy. This is the liveliest city in the State, and grows and prospers, despite the murky cloud which Radicalism throws over the political horizon."' The German Brass Bam. The commu nity is much indebted to Col. Boniford for the admirable xerformances of the German Brass Band, on the Capital square. Wc were delighted, a few evenings since, at the tine execution of this Band. There are nineteen members, all sober, genteel men, led by Capt. Stitt, who has devoted many years to the United States service as a mu sician. The music is not of that ephe meral, popular caste which pleases every one, but is thoroughly German and by the best masters of the science. The perfor mers are thorough musicians and their per formances are executed in admirable taste and time. The lovers of good music cer tainly lose much who have not listened to them. By the politeness of Col. Boniford, the Band has performed several evenings at the Institution of the Deaf, Dumb and the Blind, much to the gratification of the offi cers of the institution and the blind puplis. Sentinel.

On Sunday night last, the large warehouse, south of town, used by the Wilmington t Weldon and Seaboard Roanoke Railroad Companies for storing freight, was broken into by unknown par ties and about ir-600 worth of shoes stolen therefrom.

FATAn Accident. On Sunday morning last a colored girl named Frances Clark, was almost instantly killed by the acciden tal discharge of a gun in the handH of a Freedman on the estate of the Hon. R. R. Bridgers. We also learn that a negro man was killed by another somewhere in the county on account of a difficulty occurring about a " ginger cake." Notwithstanding these evidences of the ignorance and care lessness of tho colored race in regard to fire arms, some of our merchants continue to sell them guns and ammunition. They have probably a legal right so to do, but will they for the sake of the profit made on these articles jeopardize the lives and pro perty of people both white and colored ? Public opinion should compel them to de sist from so doing. Generally speaking only the vicious Freedmen desire to pur chase and these should not be supplied. Tarboro Southerner.

From the National Intelligencer. Scarcity of Money in the South. All accounts from tho Southern States and cities agree in representing that there is, in the whole of that region, a great scarcity of money. Last autumn the South was sending forward a largo stock of cot ton and a considerable quantity of tobac co, for which high prices wore realized. This sum of reudj money was in part con verted into goods and merchandise, for a supply of which the South was suffering in convenience, and little was left for the pur pose of repairing the damage sustained by plantations, railroads, dwellings, and ma chinery. To put plantations in order for cultivation, to pay wages, to purchase sub sistence and clothing for laborers, required a large sum of money, which could not be obtained from any source. Some capital was advanced by Northern men in aid of the cotton culture, but not enough to bring under cultivation even a tithe of the most productive lands. Even of the Sea Island plantations onlv a small number have been worked at all. The pros pect is not very good for tho next year. This is the month when arrangements should be made preparatory to the cotton, rice, and sugar culture for the next season. But no funds come to the aid of the under taking from the Northern States nor from Europe. One reason is, that tho Northern speculators are disappointed in the results of the present season. The cotton tax, ca pricious labor, and bad seasons have dis couraged them. Some of them are in fluenced also by the representations of the political and personal unfriendliness of a portion of the native wLte population. Leaders of the Radical Party. The World gives the following as speci mens of the leaders of the Radical party : Here are a few specimens of the leaders of the Radical party : Chandler and Banks, notorious drunkards ; Hamilton, wife-whip-per and associate of prostitutes ; Brownlow and Hunnicutt, blasphemers and invokers of a new rebellion ; Newman, the man that prayed for the assassination of President Johnson ; Butler, spoon-thief, gold-thief, cotton-thief ; Stevens, keeper of the "pen itentiary of hell ; " Neal Dow, purloiner of pianos; and Phillips, who invokes the block and axe, and has refused all hi3 life to swear fealty to ' the Constitution or to vote under it, because it is a league with death and a covenant with hell."

The Baltimore Police Commissioners and Governor Swann-President Johnson and the Radicals. Correspondence of the Richmond Eiaimner. Washington, Oct. 20. Baltimore is now the centre of Radical aspirations. The Radicals are determined to take the initiative in the conflict with the President. They have prepared for an insurrection against the constituted State ardhorities of Maryland at the coming elec tion of members of Congress in that State. Every Radical State will furnish aid for the proposed revolt in Baltimore against the orders of Governor Swann, if he should attempt to remove the police commis sioners. This seems to be a point upon which the Radicals may find it most convenient to adopt as an initial. The case is this ; Baltimore, if the police commissioners enforce the registry law, as they did at the municipal election, will elect two Radicals as representatives to Congress. The entire Radical party will fight for the Radical cause in Maryland. That State it is quite necessary for them to keep. Governor Swann now takes a Conserva tive course. He supports the President's policy. He may, as is said, aim at the United States Senatorship. ne has cited the Police Commissioners to appear, and to meet the charges against them of having enforced such an application of the Regis try law as illegally deprived many citizens of their rights as voters. In Maryland two-thirds, or at least one half, of the citizens entitled to suffrage are excluded. In Baltimore the proportion of those excluded is greater. The Baltimore peojile are competent to manage their own affairs. External interference from the North and West, which is threatened by the Radicals, t ill be resented. The peo ple, whatever may be their politics, will hardly allow of that. Governor Swann can turn the election in favor of the Conservatives in Baltimore and in the State by removing the Police Com missioners. This act will be resisted by force. An insurrection will thus occur, which the President, if called upon by the Governor of the State for aid, cannot re fuse to put down. Tho United States mil itary force will thus be brought into con flict with tho Radical mob. Who knows, who can tell the issues. It will, perhaps, be the opening scene of the great drama which is soon to be enacted. The President was told the other day, by one of the most eminent of the Conserva tive Republican Senators, that ho would bo impeached and removed, lhat at his command, could now prevent it. The President could not see it. He talkt politics freely with all comers, who aro chiefly office-beggars and sycophants, and are interested in deceiving him. His "reli ance upon the people " is still his leading characteristic, and the people are against him, except those whose support can do him no good. Radical Threats In Kvcnt of the Hemovul of the Police Commissioners. A letter to the Philadelphia Press says ; ' Swann wants to be United States Sen ator. Baltimore city sends twenty-one members to the Legislature. To get these twenty-one votes ho will drench the streets with blood. If he attempts to remove the Commissioners they will resist. Their po licemen aro directed to arrest as disturbers of the peace anybody pretending to inter fere with them. The Mayor will never succumb, but fight it out to the bitter end. All tho Union men in Baltimore swear that they will drench the streets with blood but they will protect their rights and the law. The brave Gen. Denison and the gallant Gen. Woolly have both offered their servi ces to the Mayor, and the returned veter ans of the Union army aro ready to fight. Swann will have a terrible responsibility if he should do this thing to defeat Stewart, Thomas and Creswell. "My solemn belief is that Andrew John son will send the regular troops into Balti more to sustain Swann, if tho attempt of the latter to remove the Police Commission ers be resisted by the people, as resisted it will be. In that event let the North be prepared. Let Pennsylvania be ready." In reply to Forney's menace against the Governor of Maryland, the Washington Constitutional Union says: "Let Forney's army of traitors come on; they will be met as they deserve. The announcement of the President was not an idle one, that treason having been put down in the South, he was ready for it in the North." SERVICES OF THE "BOYS IN BLUE " OFFERED. Baltimore, Oct. 19. The organization known as the " Boys in Blue " held a meet ing to-night, and passed resolutions to stand by the Police Commissioners, and offered their services to aid the Commissioners should they need assistance. It is not known what response the Commissioners will make to the summons of the Governor. A Political llevolution at Hand A II-rald Prediction. The New York Herald disposes of the present political crisis in the following off hand Podsnap manner : Apolitical revolution must, however, take place shortly that will mark the lines of the parties for the next quarter of a century in this country. In the Southern States there will spring up two distinct factions, the one opposing the constitutional amend ment and the other favoring that settlement of the question of restoration. The for mer will embrace all the old fire-eaters and worn-out political hacks who are set aside by the constitutional amendment and who desire still to figure on the public stage and feed at the public crib. Tho latter will comprise the new generation the young men of the South who went into the war through reckless gallantry, and the quiet, respectable citizens who desire to see peace and prosperity restored to their States. These parties will contend for a political mastery at the South among themselves, and it is easy to predict which side will win. In the Northern States the lines will be drawn between the Radical Jacobins and the Republicans. The former, probably at the next session, or certainly in the next Congress, led by Butler, Phillips and Ste vens, will proclaim their programme of abolishing the constitution, placing the executive as well as legislative power in the hand of Congress, and seizing upon the governments of all tho Southern States and holding them as subdued provinces. The Republicans will draw off in a distinct Con servative party against the Jacobin Radi cals, and the late Democrats, totally de molished and wiped out as an organization in the elections of this year, will select their places in one or other of these new divisions. Eventually the Southern consti tutional amendment party will combine with tho Republican party and form the great national organization that will elect the next President and rule the nation for the next quarter of a century. This breaking up and reformation of po litical organizations will be inoro complete and distinct than anything of the kind that has occurred in this country tince the for mation of the old Republican and Federal parties. It will be greater and more sweep ing than that, as the nation is more power ful and the issues more vital than they were in those early days of the Republic. This is the evolution that is in store for us. It will be a peaceful one ; but who can es timate the importance of its results ? No man is thoroughly happy till the discharge of duty becomes his supreme pleasure. A wealthy Dubuque mei chant is believed to have been murdered in Chicago for his money. A North Carolina Precedent. f The Charlotte Democrat publishes a letter from a gentleman in Texas to a friend in ! Mecklenburg, in which the writer says : ! "I have often read, since the termination of this war, in " lUmsay'e Annals of Tennessee," the. account there given of the separation of East nesaee from North Carolina.. I have sometimes i thought of writing President Johnson, yivin l..m ai account of the magnanimity of North Carolina hia native State, to John Sevier ami other ei(lirrT spirits of his adopted State. The strap-sl lasted about as long atoms. Tho chief revolt r, John S&vier, and Governor of the iiihune:tior.ary State, ostracised by tpecial enactment, waa magnani mously admitted to his peat Jn tlie Henate of the mother State." This is veritable history. In December 17S4, a Convention of delegates from what were known as the counties of Washing ton, Sullivan and Greene, embracing enough territory to make several large States and all belonging to the then State of North Carolina, met at Jonesboro', se ceded from North Carolina, and formed a Constitution for the State of Frankland. Gov. Caswell, then Chief Magistrate of North Carolina, was not of a temper to brook such high-handed measures, and is sued a proclamation against tho "rebels," in which (as we learn from Wheeler) he warned all persons concerned in the revolt to return to their dutv and allegiance, and declared the spirit of North Carolina was not so damped, or her resources so exhaust ed, that means, even to blood, would not be resorted to to reclaim hrr refractory citizens and preserve her dignity and honor. The State of Frankland disregarded the admonition, and proceeded to elect officers of State, levy taxes, appropriate money, erect new counties, and exercise all the powers anil prerogatives of a sovereign State. In othur words it became a de facto government, to all intents and purposes. This state of things, with frequent minor collisions and border raids, continued until the latter part of the year 1787, when the State of Frankland yielded to financial pres sure, stronger than that of physical coer cion, and was numbered among the things that were. Allegiance was promptly re newed to the old government and delegates chosen to the State Legislature, which met that year in Tarboro'. Up to this point the parallel seems al most complete between the history of the years 17818 and 18G1 - o, except in the magnitude and intensity of events ; but here, to the reproach of modern political progress, and nineteenth century magna nimity, humanity and sagacity, the parallel terminated. The delegates from the defunct State of Frankland were cordially welcomed back to the fold, figuratively the fatted calf was killed, and aii era of good feeling and harmony, the stronger for the temporary ah- j enation, ensued, and continued until thej formation of the State of Tennessee out of I the territory of North Carolina by volunta ry cession. The very next year, even, Jno. Sevier hirnfclf, who had been Governor of the insurgent State, and the life and soul of the "rebellion," (for he. was a brave and headstrong man,) was elected to thd Gen eral Assembly of North Carolina, and on appearing at the migratory capital, 'Fay etteville, 1789,) the Legislature passed an act repealing the section disqualifying him rom onice, and, on his taking the oath of allegiance, (no test oath Avas required,) he was allowed to tal-e his seal' This is a good record for our honest old State, and puts to the blush modern politi cal enlightenment and moral progress. As men have become moro cultivated in the arts and sciences, and better versed in the so-called philosoplry of government, they seem to have become also less humane, less charitable and less forgiving. Tho world, in a word, grows worse as it grows older, if American civilization is the test of advance ment ! Raleigh Sentinel. The Exported Meteoric Shorter in 3oveui ber. Fruru t!;e Xatiou.il Intelligencer. Professor Ferguson, of the National Ob servatory in this city is making arrange ments to take scientific observations on the expected meteoric display in November next. The appearance of shooting stars is quite common, but in the months of August and November of each year they aro seen in greater numbers, generally about the 10th of August and 12th of November. The great meteoric shower of 1799 seems to have drawn tho attention of astronomers more particularly to this subject, and from that time to the recurrence of the meteoric sho ers in 1833, and up to the present day, they have been endeavoring to refer the different phases and characteristics of the phenomenon to known laws, and to estab lish the exact anniversary of its appear ance. Thus far the more brilliant of these me teoric showers have occurred at intervals of thirty-three vears ; that of 1833 was espe cially distinguished by the immense num ber of moving meteors to be seen at once, and for the remarkable size and splendor of many of them. Among the myriads of blazing meteors visible on that occasion, one was seen at several places on this con tinent. It was recognized by several ob servers by its extraordinary size and brillian cy, as well as by the length of time its train remained visible, which was about ten min utes. The luminous train seemed to follow the meteor in a serpentine course, and final ly disappeared in a vast nebulous cloud, many times larger than the moon, and which continued to move onward with a velocity greater than the clouds. The meteoric displays of 1799 and 1833 were characterized by the fall of meteori tes, which, rushing towards the surface of the earth with a lomd noise, penetrated be neath it several feet. The periodicity of these starry showers is not so definitely as certained with regard to the day as the year. They have occurred to a greater or less degree in the months of August and November, from 1833 to 1839 ; but the most remarkable of them have appeared on the 12th of November, or between that day and the 14th. The next appearance of the meteoric phe nomenon, therefore, is expected on or about the 12th of next mouth. The observations of astronomers have demonstrated that the shooting stars are more numerous between midnight and sunrise, and the majority of them agree in fixing the radient point that point in which the lines described by the meteors in their flight centre in the constellation Leo, limiting the area of ra diation to the iniineliate vicinity of Regu lus, in the neck of the lion. Others assign the radiant point to the constellation Orion. The theory most generally accepted in accounting for the regular occurrence of meteoric showers is that an unusual aggre gation of these asteroids exists m the plane which is reached by the earth at that point of its orbit, and through which the earth is several hours in passing, although observa tions have not been sufficiently numerous to establish the exact period of the ea: th's arrival at this part of its orbit. During the flight of meteors in November, 1833, much apprehension was manifested from the frar that one or mare ofthe.se asteroids ironbl - into collision with lie enrlh; hut hitherl- ; disastrous consequences Jutta ensued from uas grand celestial display, and although there is some reason to believe that an event of this kind is possible, scientific men unite in the opin ion that such a calamity is not within the bounds of probability. Bets of two to one are freely offered in this city that the grand display will not " come off." We, however, do not doubt that the show will take place, and we can not help reflecting what a harrowing thing it would be should one of the meteoric bodies, say about the ei2e of South Caroli 'na, strike in its flight the State of Massa- chusetts, impinging first on junker Hill !

Arriving here early in the morning by the Baltimore steamers, often times before sunrise, they remain at the Ilygeia Hotel for breakfast, f and having obtained permission from Brigadier-CJener al II. S. Burton, commandant of the for tress, to enter his quarters, (and it is never refused,) they remain there till their visit expires, save when attending their meals. Now and then occur the visits of his coun sel or more important personages ; but in every case permission to enter the fortress is granted, the utmost liberty of social amenities are extended them, and unre stricted communication with Davis and his family is allowed. Occasionally an ex rebel officer arrives here, and although it is said there was an order issued some time ago strictly forbidding the presence of such in the fortress, they have but Mttle difiiculty in obtaining an entrance and the "privilege of visiting the prisoner. The arrivals to-day were Dr. S. J. Whee ler, of Murfreesboro', N. C, formerly col onel of the Twelfth North Carolina Caval ry, and a Major Barron, of the Tenth North Carolina Artillery, both old friends of Davis. They both entered tho fortress this morning, and remained all day. The Vote of Pennsylvania.
