11 A L HIGH.
Tue Hendkrson Fair. Our Hen
derson correspondent, under date ot
yesterday, furnishes us with the 'follow
ing items concerning the approaching
Agricultural Fair : j
A stroll to tiie Fail5' Grounds !in this
place oh yesterday, was truly refreshing.
We found some thirty hands 1 busily
engaged '.u hammeriug, sawing, dig
ging and' scraping, under the energetic
aiauageiueut ot that stirring old wheel
horse'lUol. (commonly called) ''Smith".
Harris. We. found a new buitdicg
erected :70 x 40 feet, tw. s ories high,
the lower room ior liuggies carriages.
V&cM 5cq. ,; the uppei floor. to be used as
Floral Hall. We also found in
addition to these two spacious rooms,
seats Under thef joof of the same; buil
ding for the accommodation of at least
two thousand persons, ranged ohe,above
another, "circus , fashion" so"' . that
every one can witness the trotting on
the whole line ofthe track. In the
main building also, is a large room to bfc
used by the President, chairman of
the Executive Committee with their
appropriate aids,"also in another wing
of the building is a room fixed up ex
clusively for ladies; A large number
of good stalls lor horse:5, cows, sheep,
pens for hogs and coops tor poultry, are
in rapid progress and will be completed
by Saturday at the farthest. j
The grounds seems to have been de
signed by nature for the purposes of
agricultural fairs, five acres of the same
being covered by a lovely grove of oaks
affording ample shade,. and-the trotting
track, some 1,400 yards long, adjoining,
skirts the inner edge of a barrier, cov
ing some 33 acres, so that any one
standing on the ground can witness the
whole trot the entire distance. jWe
have heard competent gentlemen t say
"Ibis Was the best track in this State or
Virginia. i
Articles are already arriving for exhi-.
bition from Petersburg and Norfolk,
horses are being trained daily upon the
track, and everything bids fair forthe
best exhibition ever held h$ie. Gran
ville, Warren and Franklin counties
abound' with fine crops of . tobaCco,
cotton, wheat, oats, potatoes, &c., and
Will be on hand to show their products.
and if any other of our sister counties
think they can "fan" them out, well, just
come along and you are insured a fair,
square deal. j
The young people are looking forward
with profound interest to the hop and
cotillion party on the evening of the
10th, being the third night of the fair ;
music, beauty and love will.'bje there,
and had your correspondent not put
away childish thiDgs,he would certainly
"wade in,'? as he may be tempted to do
anyhow.
Tut: Death of Rev. Dr. J. Brixto:;
Smith Post Mortem Examination
... , .
The Jury yet in Session The Sto
mach and Brains of the Deceased
taken to Philadelphia by Coroner
Magnin for Scientific Examina
tion. Yesterday morning at 9 .o'clock
Coroner Magnin, with Drs. E. Burke
Haywood, Jas McKee and Fab. J. Hay
wood, Jr., repaired to the residence of
the late Rev. Dr. J. Brinton Smith for
the purpose of making a post morten
examination of the body. As the jury
could arrive at no verdict without a
positive knowledge that the Doctor had
died from the effects of poison, when
all the evidence adduced in the trial
pointed directly to the fact that he did,
upon Jthe advice of Dr. E. Burke
Haywood, Coroner Magnin will leave
the city this morning, with the stomach
and brains of the deceased for Phila
delphia, where they will be examined
by the celebrated Dr. Genth and his
prolessional opinion obtained. In the
ineantime the jury will remain in
session. !
Grave . apprehensions that Dr. Smith
was poisoned, exist in the minds of the
Community, and it is feared' that
tlu matter will yet assume quite an
ugly shape, though suspicion as yet
points to no one definitely. V I
The affair creates no little sensation:
lrom the fact of the great ami univer
sal popularity of Dr. Smith with all!
sects and parties.

Singular. A gentleuan of this city
killed a bird in Johnston county a few
days since, which being unknown to
him, he brougnt with him to the city.
No one could tell him what kind of a
bird it was, so he went finally, where
he ought to have gone at first, to Mr. J.
F. Taylor, otherwise known a3 Font
Taylord. He began : ' I killed a bird
a few days ago, with which I am
unfamiliar "where, in a swamp or on
high lands" "Ou a telegraph wire."
Without waiting for a description,' or
seejng the bird, Col. T. then said :
t' Well, it is the shrike, or butcher bird,"
and proceeded to despribe it. The
same evening the bird was sent to him,
and he was confirmed in dii " singular
guess Upon looking in a -book on
ornithology, Col. T. was sustained.

Wke Forest College. We have
been furnished the following commmi
cation for publication.: I -
Mews. Editors : It will be necessary
ere long. for the State to furnish for its
colored population a Deaf, Dumb and
Blind Institute. As most of this class
re uneducated it . would be' well that
such an Institute should be located in
the country where.a piece of adjoining
land might be. cultivated so as to make
the Institution in part, at-least. self-(
sustaining. The Baptists are a large'
and influential body in the State! It
their College was located-at Raleigh it
would evidently be to the -interests of
the denomination. We would respect
fully suggest the purchase of the Wake
Forest building by the State fori the
purpose above named, and the purchase
by the Baptists of a location, arid ; the
erection ot buildings,
Raleigh.
for a College at
Baptist.

Erratum. In our report of the pro
ceedings of the Commissioners meeting
Tuesday night, we showed from the
City Treasurer's report that there was
now in the Treasury $32,407, when it
should have been $7. An "-0" was left
out by the compositor in the amount
that had been paid out, and the proof
reader made his calculation according
ly, hence the error. '-
The only difference made by the mis
fake was the general rush made at the
Treasurer's office yesterday, commenc
ing at 5 o'clock, a. m., by every man,
woman and child in the towu and
vicinity that held city scrip.

Fair Week Attractions We have
been shown a letter addressed to the
managers of Metropoliton Hall from
the DeLeon Bros., in which they state
that they will open in this city Fair
Week, with the finest Opera Troupe
that ever visited, the city. At great
trouble and expense, these celebrated
managers have secured the very best
talent that America can aflord, among
whom is the Mrs. Viola Pomeroy, the
great light of the New York stage.
This will indeed be a rare entertaidmenf,
and will doubtless be patronized by our
citizens in accordance with its merits.

THE STATE GONE OVERWHEL
MINGLY DEMOCRATIC !'.'
Savannah, October 2, 1 p. m.
C. Bryant, Deputy - Collector of this
port, attempted to create a riot at, the
polls to-day and was ordered off by the
deputy Sheriff, lie resisted and at
tempted to draw a pistol, when he was
struck over the head with a club by; the
officer and taken off, and is now in
confinement.
The election thus far is piogressing
quietly. Bradley, the negro who for
the past two weeks has been inciting
the negroes to riot and incendiarism,
left the city last night for South Caroli
na, and has not yet returned. Reports
from Liberty county say the Democrats
are ten to one. This is a strong negro
county. '" !. : ' ;

Macon., Oct. 2.
A fight occurred at the polls here to
day, growing out of another attempt by
the negroes to take forcible possession
of the polls, a device which they have
successfully practiced here during the
last three elections. Very early in the
morning they massed at the City Hall,
and marched down to the polls at the
Court House in -..a column, under the
commaud of their Captains, Lieutenants
and Sergeants. There they found a
smaller crowd, principally whites, and
commenced crowding upon them and
forcing them from the polls. A. few
bouts of fisticuffs occurred in the dense
mass, and then a discharge of brickbats
came from the negroes, followed by an
older from their leader, Jeff- Long, to
fire upon the whites. In the course of
a few seconds about fifty pistol shot3
were discharged from both sides, by
which one white man was killed, ani
some five or six negroes wounded, two
of whom are since dead. - The attack
came from negroes, and these general
facts are substantiated by numerous afii-
L davits before the venerable Judge Cole,
of this Circuit, who was in the Court
House, and himself - a ' witness; from
a window that the negroes commenced
the affair. After the affray, which
lasted but a few moments,' the balk of
! the negroes left in haste and disorder,
! swearing that they would give up the
election as they had been driven from
the polls by violence, and could get no
chance to vote, lhey massed a tiu ati
the City Hall, where they were address

is simply tlie result ol another attempt
