The report showed tbe receipts of the Fair were fifty per cent larger tbis year than ever before, and after paying all premiums and all expenses, and taking up a portion of the bonds on the grand stand, there was still a cash profit left, besides the permanent improvements to the property that bad been made during the year. The Association adopted a report com plimentary to tbe two railroads which run into tho city, thanking the officials for the efficient management of each, lor the interest displayed in the Fair, and their unusual efforts in its behalf; for the courtesies extended and the facu'ties turn ished to tbe travelling public in behalf of this institution. Thrt tbe results of the last exhibition were fifty per-cent better than those of sny previous one, is very gratifying, not only to the stockholders but to the i iter ated public Every year since tbe Fair started tbe receipts bave shown an in crease over the previous year and there is no reason why those of next year should not he still larger. Resolve, that this shall be so and plan and work for it aa the year rolls on. The notice it is bringing to this region is a great thing, not aimply for the eastern section but for the State. A Small Catting Affray. A cuttibg affray, all concerned being colored people, occurred on Cedar street in the vicinity oi the fair grounds. Two men, Haywood Guion and Frank Win field, were in a dray. The owner, a son of Peter Jones, tbe wood yard man, asked them to get out when -they became in censed and attacked both Jones and his mother, inflicting wounds on tbe back add on the neck, which fortunately are not serious, though his escape from death at the hands of hs assailants seems provi dential. His mother received a flesh wound on one ot her fingers. Guion is just out of jail for previous violent conduct and Winfleld is under bond. The former was arrested soon after the attack. Winfleld escaped but will be taken when gotten up with. Tbe youth whom they attacked bears a good name, as being of a quiet, inoffen sive disposition. Coming aad doing. Messrs. M.D. W. Stevenson, O.

Potatoes are cut down, butbi v will be later Hun tliey othesivise would ami theyiebl somewhat diminislel. ll i lie potatoes wero not up and lliose bite one will beyond doubt do the In-st. Peas arejbadly injured. Some i f (be truckers say they do not now look lor more tb.m i lointli ol a crop. They wen well advanced and scarcely anything is expected from tbe young peas and blooms that have put forth, This will make the crop both late and short. Some think as the vines lay on the ground the under blooms and peas, being protected, will survive and give a partial crop even of the first ones. The above twj crops are tbe ones from which the tru kers sustain the mst serious injury. The beau9 that were up are cut down but fortunately half the crop was not through the ground, and it is yet early enough for thosj who have lost to re plant and what is more tho seed is at hand to replant w-th. Young cucumbers, squashes, cantelou pes and w;iter-inelons. were up in con aideiable numbers. They were killed, but their destruction is of little consequence, for this reason: The truckers ilways be very early and make succcssiue plant ings ol these things in the same hill with tho expectation tint the early ones may get killed, and they use the earliest that survive a little setting back is the only harm done here. As lew tomatoes had been put nut in the field, they are killed but there are plenty more of the plants in the hot beds to take their places. Cabbages are ouly slightly injured. So take it all in all, there is a bright sido to the picture. Though the snap entails loss and trouble it has conic early enough in the season to remedy the most of the damage ami unless there is a re curreuce of it latar on, we may yet look for large shipments. Fruit is damaged greatly, and tho strawberries are cut off. A telegram from Wilmington states that at I'harlseton beans, peas, lettuce, cucumbers, kale and strawberries are thrown back thirty days, and that about the same is the case at Wilmington. At i'lattsburg, N. Y., the mercury is about tlie zero mark. UNITED CONFEDERATE TETERANd. A Grand Re-Unlou Next Mouth at II ur- uilughiin Local Camps Urged to be Organized and Send Representation.
