From the Augusta Constituencies, December
Baby Show I'm Georgia.

Yesterday was the day for the exhibition Of
babies at the annual fair of the Southern Ag-
ricultural Society. The attendance was good,
particularly on the part of the fairer portion OF
creation-the ladies. The baby show was one
of the greatest attractions. n the hour of
twelve o'clock there was general rush to see
the entries, and we had just entered the room
where they were collected when notice was
given for all but the committee to retire. OF
course we udmosed with the rest, and took up
our position near the speakers stand, knowing
that, after the decision of the committee, which
had not been made public,) the beautiful little
responsibilities would be exhibited to the public.
We were not disappointed, and had hardly
secured good position before we were sur.
rounded by a crowd of ladies and gentlemen
anxiously awaiting their appearance. The
crowd were not held in suspense for any length
of time before Mr.. John S. Hutchinson made
his appearance on the platform, and, taking his
little darlings in his arms, one by one, he ex-
hibited each TO the crowd, expatiating on their
different merits. On taking possession Of one
of the youngest, it commenced crying, when
he made the truthful remark that "he hoped
the audience would not Judge the specimen
exhibited by present appearances, for, although
Young, Il was but the development OF the future
and burst Of human nature"
The specimens exhibited (of which there
were seven or eight would do credit to any
State in the Union.
The last scene in the baby show line came
off yesterday. We understand that there were
some seven entries, and that more premiums
would have been awarded had the conditions
of the society been complied with, requiring
them to be dressed in homespun. Premiums
we're awarded to three, in the following order
l. The daughter of Mr.. jackson Turpin
aged two years, silver pitcher, worth ffty
| dollars.
2. A fine looking boy Of Mrs. @. MeLsugh
lin, eighteen months old, silver pitcher, worti
twenty-five dollars.
3. A fat, ruby and handsome boy Of Mrs. ID
B. Plumb, ten months old, silver goblet
worth ten dollars.
The baby show added much to the interes
Of the fair, and we hope the managers viii con
tinue annually to offer inducing premiums 60
their production, for there is no branch in do
mestic manufactures in which more interest j
felt

ELEGANT EXTRACT.

The Washington Union of Thursday con-
tanned an article on the Balance of Power in
Europe, in which, after stating that " the bal
ance of Europe was again restored pro tenn, at
the Congress of Vienna, where the high con-
trolling powers helped themselves to what they
pleased, and the smaller ones took what they
could get" it goes on to say: "and since that
time, Europe, having been ,ceH blcd, blistered,
and evacuated, has remained tolerably quiet
waiting till the balance Of power should again
be disturbed"

'GovERNoR OF UTAH.

The reign Of Brigham Young is at an end.
He is no longer the Governor Of Utah. we
are informed by the Union, Of yesterday, that
the President has nominated to the Senate
Brevet 6olonel Edward J, .Steptoe, Of the Uni
ted States army, as his successor. Colonel
Steptoe (says the Union) who isin fneal . rank
captain Of artillery, and who has been twice
breveted for gallant and meritorious conduct in
the battles ofCerro Gordo and Chepultepec, is,
of course, well known to the whole, country in
that relation. \ In addition to this, all who are
acquainted with him, either personally or in
his official capacity, bear testimony to the dig
nity and manlness of his character, his intelli-
gence, his extensive information upon subjects
not connected with his profession, his eminent
discretion, and to the conscientious and reli-
gious temper of his mind. All these are quail
ties which signally fit him for the delicate and
important duty Of governor Of a Territory SO
peculiar in its condition and population as
Utah.
ave do not apprehend that the substitution
of Colonel Steptoe for Governor Young will be
. .
attended with any inconvenience. We conhde
much in the practical good sense Of the he, inhab'
itants Of Utah, Notwithstanding their peculiar
institutions, and not less in the combined mod
Grafton, frmness, and sagacity Of Colonel Step
toe. who has been for some time encamped
with his command near Salt Lake City"
The experiment of governing Utah by OH
GERS totally disconnected from the peculiar so
cial religious, and matrimonial systems that
prevail among the Mormons, will now have
fair trial. We hope that it will prove success
full. A quiet submission to the authority o.
the United States, thus judiciously exercised
will tend much to soften, tho prejudice and
abate the feeling of acrimony that have been
caused by their peculiar institution, as well as
by manifestations of spirit of INSTRUMENTATION
exhibited by them towards federal officers mo-
Of their persuation. 80 leoq 's.s

Live stock.-Strangers visiting the metropo-
lis, especially those who are housekeepers at
home, seldom fail to peepiuto the Centre Market
to see the condition ofthe provision departments.
Their eyes grat6ed, no doubt, with the exit
biiion of poultry-both dead and live stock in that
line Of business. The only objection with the
citizens is the high price Of that and other edi-
bles. Rabbits must be plentiful in this neighbor-
hood, judging by the ample display; but a gen
,leman, temporarily resident in the midst Of us,
complains that he has not yet been able 10 obtain
supply Of possum, food which he esteems de-
licious, perhaps, with the nutritious accompani-
ment Of homminy, and sometimes rice" We
have no means Of ascertaining the eating capacity
Of the gentleman, but, il we can form a, opinion
from what he has said the subject, the country
man who could furnish a fat and large supply Of
the animal, would find in him profitable custo-
mer.
