MuEpER.-A letter from the Rev. Richardson
Graham, the Episcopal Clergyman, at Wiltown,
in this State, dated at the Stone Mountain, in
Georgia, on the 25th ult., announces the death,
on that day, Of brother of Mr.. Graham, who
resided at the last named village, and who had
received "a wound on his head from some heavy
instrument, supposed to be an AK. The assas-
sin, it would appear, entered his room in the
darkness of the night, on Thursday, the 10Th
ult., and struck him on the head near the right
ear-no one seems to have been present or TO
have known how, or exactly at what hour he
received the blow-money is supposed to have
been the object of the murderer. Mr.. Graham
had been blind for years. In another letter
from the reverend gentleman, received by last
evenings mail, and dated at Decatur, Ga, on
the 2sth ult, he says, u have just found out
the murderer Of my dear brother, and he is
now safely lodged in jail in this town-he con-
| fessed the deed. There was no other evidence
than the power of Gods vieegerent, con-
science charleston Courier, S0th ult

RAIEIGH, " EDNEs A1 MBER 8, 1858:



They Virginia State Fair opened on the lst instant
and Judging from the accounts in the papers It sur
passes he expectations of the public. The Enquirer
of Wednesday says
"THs AGRIcuLruRAI FAIR Yesterday was the first
day of the first Cattle Show and Fair Of the Virginia
State Agricultural Societya day set apart for the
premium committees to examine articles and to de-
termine upon awards, and for the admission to the
Fair only Of members Of the Society and their famil
les notwithstanding the exclusive character of ad-
missions, there was a large conconrse of people in
attendance There were probably as many as five
Thousand persons there during the course of the day.
and thesscene was of most animating and interest
ing character, from the opening in the morning until
the close at sunset The day was bright and pleas
ant and the amount of articles exhibition in eve
ry department of Agricultural Implements horses
cattle, sheep, hogs, fowls, &C., very large. Thous-
ands Of persons engaged the entire day in view
ing and Inspecting the numerous articles of interest
spread over those extensive grounds, and we have
never seen more delighted company. All bore tes-
timony to the fine display, and to the beauty and
excellence of the great number of animals, machine
ry, and articles generally
To-day the fair will fe open to the public and at
II o'clock, the annual address will be delivered by
John R. Edmunds, Esq. of Halifax.
On Thursday the trial of Ploughs, and the Plough
ing Match will take place. to commence at 10 o'clock
On Friday at 10 O'clock the reports of the Judges
will be read from the stand, and the premiums dis
tributed.
On this and Thursday evening, the members of
the Society and persons interested in the subject of
agriculture are invited to meet in the Societys large
room at the Metropolitan Hail. for conversation and
discussion upon agricultural subjects. The chair
will be taken at half past seven o'clock
On Thursday evening the Society will meet in the
same place to elect officers for the ensuing year, and
the transaction of such other business as may come
before it."
A large meeting of the State Society was held on
Monday night in Metropolitan Hall, Richmond The
President after few remarks read the report of the
Executive Committee adopted at its last meeting.
The report set FORTH that at the last annual meeting
of the Society, held in December, the number of
members consisted of only $685. while at the present
time they will fall nothing short of four thousand
The amount of funds then on hand was S265, which
has since increased to the handsome sum of So 900.
The report recommended that set Of Agricultural
rooms be provided in this city-one for Secretary
to be appointed, at yearly salary, and permanently
located in Richmond, as medium through whom
intelligence would be dilfused through the State up
on all subjects relating to Agriculture-one de-
pository for the archives of the Society-one for a
lecture room-and one for a library. 1t was also
recommended that State Chemist be appointed by
the Society.

TIE GUANo TRADE. The following information,
furnished by the Washington Sentinel, of Sunday,
will be read with great interest:
A committee of the Virginia State Agricultural
Society, consisting fMessrs w. Bouware and john
ston Barbour, had interview yesterday, with the
President of the United States the subject of the
guano trade. Their object, representing the views
of the Association and of the people of Virginia,
without doubt, is to induce the President to adopt
proper means to rid the country of the odious mo-
nopoly in the trade in this article We establish no
monopOles ourselves and should for still stron
ger reason, permit foreign country to establish
them among us. We are happy to learn that the
President concurs with them in their views and is
determined to carry them out with energy, and with
all the meane his position affords him.
