THE FAIR AT AUeusTA-KEALTE OF OUR CITY

We hope to see large attendance from every
part of Georgia, and from the adjoining States
at the approaching State Fair, which commences
on Monday, the 9th of December. Our Hotels
and Boarding Houses are in fine order and VOL
kept, and preparations are being made IN every
department of business to make the city attrac,
tive to strangers. The Fair Grounds also will
be in condition to extend ample accommodations
to all exhibitors and visitors. Convenient ar
rangement are in readiness to convey persons, at
reasonable rates, 25 cents 10, and from the fall
Grounds.
Let not the public be deceived and deferred
from wishing us, by the false reports in clrcua'
ton al distance. in regard to the health OF our
city. 1t is the impression in some quarters, thai
the Yellow Fever is still prevailing among us
We were shown letter Yesterday, from Peuileld
dated 23d inst, stating that il was reported there
that there were twenty new cases OF Yellow re-
yer in Augusta, and several deaths of that dis:
ease-that IL number of medical students iIad
left the city: and the class attending the Lectures
was about breaking up. Nothing can be more
untrue. The fever has wholly ceased as an cpl
dcmic, not single case has occurred among
those who have not been exposed TO it prior IL
frost, and there is not the slightest danger o
persons taking the disease, who now visit us
Our atmosphere is restored to its former purity
and is as safe as it could be at midwinter. There
may be a few cases lingering with us, where
persons were exposed during the summer, OF
returned prematurely, and there have been one
or two deaths among that class. But this is nc
reason why our city may not bc visited with en-
tire impunily.
The report about the Medical College is
equally false. We are informed that no stu,
dents have left. On the~rontrary, the class Is
daily increasing.
In order TO show how little cause for alarm
exists, we state that the Board of Health discon
tinucd its daily reports and meetings on the oil
inst, at which time it reported one death from
Yellow Fever for The "a hours preceding. There
were, however, at that date several eases sill
under ire atmept. We have ascertained from

only nine interments from that disease Mosi
of these were old cases, and all of them cases
in which the disease was contracted before frost

Arrival of the Steamer Baltic

FOUR DAESLAIER NEWS FROH ECfOFE
New YoRK, Nov. 2G, 1854.
The steamer Baltic arrived this afternoon with
Liverpool dates OF the 18th.
The news from the seat Of war is important. Since
the last advces inccssant fighting attended with ter,
rible loss of life, had occurre before Spbasopol On
the 9TH the Russians male fierce attack ON the
Allies, taking several batteries and spkinS the guns.
This battle lasted from daybrcak till four in the
afternoon. AMI both sides claim the victory. Five
thousand Allies, and eight thousand Russians, are
said to have been left dead OIL the fell The next
day the Russians renewed the attack, but the result
is not yet known. 1t WAS said that the Allies would
storm Sebastupol before the Russians could recover
from their osses, but this docs not seem probable,
other statements saying that they must abandon the
scige, unless speedily reinforced.
Both parties claim the victory in the contest on
the 5th before Seba>t"pol. Gen. Canroocrt says the
Russians lost on that day 1000 men, Mcnsch'kofi
saws the sortics Of the garrison the 5t were em
ncntly successful. They spiked so French guns,
and defeated an assault made BY the French Oh the
town intlIc,ng on them terrible loss.
The government of France aud England had re-
ccved the most urgent requests for renforcen'ents
from Lord Raglan and Gen Canrebrrt, and $4,000
French would at once be sent. Every available
steamer, including tue Europa, Alps, Indiana, cHe
New Y York, had been taken for this service.
The reported destruction Of Lord Carligan's Resi-
mens uf Light Cavalry is confirmed. They charged

MEx1co.-A good idea Of the state of
affairs in Mexico may be gathered from the
following extract OF I! letter in the Journal
OF Commerce
"I'he press is so restrained, and the tom
que and correspondence so restricted under
inqusiiional pains and penalties, the truth
so repressed, and only that which is favora-
bic to the centre bazoned in public, that it
is diilicul: to give the true state of things in
this quarter. One general fact may be relied,
Oh aud that is, that the revolution is gain
ing head openly and secretly in every direc.
tion. That which has not been developed
is ready to explode on, the first favorable
opportunity, aud like fires long smothered,
will burst fourth with redoubied contlagra-
lions. The movements commencing in the
extremites, and through State organizations,
have been well conceived. In drawing the
central army from the capital to subdue
rebellion, it leaves the centre exposed TO Il
pronuncamento. General Santa Anna was
nearly entrapped in his march on Guerro
and Acapulco last winter, and this eXplaints
his rapid retreat He arrived opportunely,
and to accept of triumphal reception from
those who mediiated his downfall. Such is
Mexico"
