Cost of a Fair. " , The first question to be considered iu getting up a Fair is the first cost of get ting under headway. This will depend a good deal on the ideas of the Mana gers. The Fair Grounds may be made to cost a mint of money, and they can be put up very cheaply amere niattor of taste and means. . t The ground can probably be leased at small annual rent, say $100; and about 1,600 yards of fencing, at a cost of 500, ought to enclose the grounds. Then about $1,500 expended in plain buildings for display of exhibits ought to enable, the Association to make a s,tart. At the outside $2,500 ought to put the Fair in full operation. Not that a much larger sum could not be very profitably used, but this would do for a beginning. We have no doubt fifty per cent of this sum would be realized from gate money, 'clear of all expenses, on the first year; and that in two years the entire amount would be refunded.' If then a stock commpany would raise the money and start the Fair on an economical plan, the investment would be a good one. .' And outside and above any question of direct returns for the money thus expended, the busi ness interest of New Berne will gain an hundred fold by this Fair. Thousands of visitors will spend soyeral days each year in the city and help to swell our trade. ; Farmers from various points on Pamlico Sound will send iu their ex hibits and from''1 '.personal visit many of them will divert their trade hithor. And! .strangers from different points of the United States will probably visit the Fair; and occasionally one of them will betruck with exhibits of corn and rice from . Hyde, : or cotton and jute from Pamlico, or the fine grass fattened beef from Jones, or the fish-furnishing capacity of Carteret and lower Craven, or with One of the hundred attractions of this beauiifnl and fertile land, and from seeing its beauties, will be induced to come among us and help to build up the country. ,' ' ; ' . ' ; We must have ihe Fair. There is too much to gain for us to hesitate about making extra exertions to, secure it. wi. The Cotton Seed Oil Mill, Messrs. Merrick & Apple, the Bradford county, Pennsylvania, gentlemen who have been here for the last week, look ing after the establishment of a cotton seed oil mill, leave this morning, but will return in a few weeks, as it is un derstood they have -positively determ ined upon the mill. Several of our own capitalists will be interested in the en terprise. It is learned that the plant for the mill will cost 40,000 or 50,000, and that the entire enterprise will represent at)out $1UU,UU0. .;. It iB shown by reasonable calculations that the absence of such a mill from Charlotte has been costing the cotton planters in our tributary territory con siderably over $ 100,000 per year, in the single item Of the waste of the oil in the cotton seed usod as a fertilizer; for the oil of cotton seed is not of the slightest value meui-ici.ing the Roil and its ex traction from the seed does not impair tno value m t. ; import of the oil cuke.

" Last Friday a week ago Mr. E.' S. Hawks, a gentleman of Ashfield, Mass., reached Fort Mills, with three elegant bird dogs, which he proposed to train for the approaching field trials at High Point. He was thoroughly well equipp ed as a sportsman and trainer, and de voted himself to his business with much assiduity. But he soon began to exhibit peculiar symptoms of mental derange ment which took the form of excessive fear, that, being a northern man and a Republican, he would' be killed. The excitement attendant upon and follow ing the election so wrought up the fears suggested by his evidently disordered brain that the proprietor of the house at which he lodged in Fort Mills, says he would frequently express the appre hension that he was to become a politi cal victim, and when citizens of the vil lage would enter the house and refer to politics he would hasten to his room and lock himself in, from whence he could be induced to come out only after much persuasion and assurance that no harm should be done him. These apprehon sions were the only exhibitions of de rangement he made, and as he appeared rational in all his other actions and ut terances, no interruption was offered to his training of the dogs, which he con tinued with diligence and interest. : He seemed extremely fond of tho dogs, and took much pride in the excellence of tlieir pedigree and the progress of their training. He valued them at 500 each. : . Saturday morning last, with his gun and one of the dogs, he took the fields He did not return to dinner, as was his wont, but a negro came with the story that while working in a cotton field that morning, he had heard a shot and a yelp and a moment after had soen Mr. Hawks flying like a madman through tho cot ton field, entering the woods again on tho opposite side. In a moment he had heard another shot from the woods. Jt was feared that the poor fellow, in a freak of insanity, had killed himself, and a party of citizens was formed to search for him 'or his corpse. Proceed ing to the spot from whence the first shot heard by the negro had sounded, the dead body of the dog was found with a pistol shot through its head. Following the trail of the insane man, his pistol : was found in the woods be yond tho cotton field; but nothing could bo seen Of the fugitive, although the search was continued throughout the afternoon and Sunday. ' ; Yesterday morning Mr. Hawks enter ed the hardware store of Messrs. Brem & McDowell in this city. His appear ance was wild and disordered in tho extreme. Ho was dressed in a canvass hunting suit covered with mud and dirt, his hat was torn and the hair of his head protruded through the holes. His heavy hunting boots were wot, as though he had been wading, in. the water; his hands were torn and bleeding,, and in his eyes there was the wild and unmis takable gleam of insanity. He created qtiite a commotion in the store when he entered, but Mr. Brem, who had met him when he passed through Charlotte on his way to Fort Mill, recognized him and his situation at once, having heard of his disappearance at Fort Mill. He told Mr. Brem his story.- He had fled, he said, becauie he was convinced there was a conspiracy to take his life because he was a northern man and a Republi can, but strangoly enough he thought the negroes were to be the agonts of his death. He had been persued by them since Saturday morning; had shot his dog because he feared it would be the means of his discovery and capture. He had not had a mouthful to eat since he left Fort Mills, and had been hiding in ditches for two days and nights. He was taken to the Central Hotel by Mr. Brem, who telegraphod to Fort Mills for his dogs and baggage, ne was well supplied for money, and leaves for his home in Massachusetts today. ' Pound Dead Iu Bed. Mrs. Albert Magnin and her three year old son have a room at the Cottage Hotel, which is kept by Mr. John Sugg as a boarding house. Not getting up at her usual time this morning, her ac quaintances became alarmed, and after failing to effect an entrance through the door, the window to her room was hoisted and she was discovered laying across the bed with her head hanging off, dead, and her little boy in bed asleep unconscious bf her death. Coroner Wm, R. Richardson was no tified, who summoned a jury and re paired to tho place where the body was examined. : The following is the verdict rendered: That the deceased, Susan Magnin, came to her death cither on the night of Thursday, Nov. 0th, or on the morning of the 10th from syncope, caused from long continued ' alchoholism.

' HILI.AD AGI IOX, Real Estnte Agents. ' New Berne, N. 0. Tbe Halle Mine. Dr. Spillsbury of tho Haile mine in Lancaster county, S. C, brought to the U. S. Assay office in this city, yesterday, two bars of gold weighing 123.9 ounces, the result of one week's run of a twenty stamp mill. The value of these bars is about 2185. A first-rate week's work, Dr. Spillsbury reports that thoy have just roceived at the Haile the machinery for a much enlarged roasting machine. There is now out upon the surface at the mine 1,500 tons of $40 per ton ore ready for the new furnace. Another fact concerning this mine not generally known in Charlotte is that the Desig- nolles -memical process for treating sul phurots, a plant for which is now being erected near this city, has been in sue cessful operation at tho Hailo for nine mouths, during which time ores run ning as low as 3.00 per ton have been successfully treated. Charlotte Jour- Durtt&i-dly Art. We learn that on Saturday night last after George Congleton had gone to bed at his home, he was called up by par ties outside and asked to show them the way to a certain place. Out of the goodness of his heart he arose, put on his clothes, and with a light proceeded to poiut out the road; but when only short distance from his home he was thrown down, his torch extinguished and ho roughly handled with lamp black, etc. His cries soon brought assistance, when his assailants made for the woods in all directions. We suppose no harm was intendedonly a rough joke for his exercising his right and voting for a colored man on elec tion day. We condemn such action in any one. If Congleton saw fit to cast his vote for a negro it was no business of others to molest him for it. North State Prcus. CITY ITEEIS.
