Of the exhibition, and six ladies entered the
ring as competitors for the prizes to be
awarded by the Committee. They rode the
entire circle number of times, and Mrs
Davie, Of Minneapolis, was pronounced by
the spectators, the most elegant and grace
full rider, but each of the fair competitors
rode well, and proved her horsemanship not
to be sneered at or ridiculed by any one.
In the forenoon, little son of Mr.. Hopkins
rode the Morgan colt around the ring num-

FILLMORE IN New YoRK-RIDIcULoUs
RUMoRs.-We understand that Col. Forney,
the man of all work for Buchanan in the
present canvass, is busy circulating all sorts
of stories and inventing abSurdities without
number in reference to the prospects of the
candidates. Among other things, lie Las
scattered a story throughout Pennsylvania
that New York will 60 for Fillmore by So
600 majority. We have seen similor story
in the Rchmong Wing, and other Southern
papers. These ridiculous fabrcations are
circulated throughout the South for the pur-
pose of bolstering up the Fillmore interest
and they are repeated by Forney in Penn
sylvanla, in order to affect the vote in that
State on the 18th. A more ridiculous alb
surdity has never been fabricated by the
frightened cherubs of the niger driving de-
mocracy. In this State, no one pretending
to any knowledge of politics would risk his
reputation by promising majority for Fill
more. Every one who knows any thing of
political affairs, from Sandy Hook to Niaga-
ra, and every traveller through the State who
has seen the drift of opinion, Is aware that
one of the surest States in the Union for
Fremont is the Empire State. Every day
adds strength to the Fremont party; the
only danger Is, indeed, that it may become
too strong, and that internal quarrels may
break out in it before the result is ascer-
tanned.
In fine, the politicians Of the Middle,
Southern and Western States may rest sat-
isfed that the vote of New York is safe for
Fremont. Every indication points to that
result.-N. Y. Herald.

1t was our fortune in the year 1850, to
accompany distinguished American on a
visit to Baron Won Humboldt at Potsdam
After expatiating long and eloquently upon
the exhaustless resources, the marvellous
progress and the glorious destinies Of the
U,ited States and expressing, in language
of similar ardor and animation, his own love
and admiration for the county, the venera-
BILE philosopher added, addressing our Amer
lean friend: "But there is one thing, sir,
which grieves me more than can describe,
and that is the policy you have lately adop-
ted in regard to Slavery. | am not so I'M
reasonable as to expect that you should in
stantly emancipate your slaves. l know
well the formidable difficulties that you have
to contend with in solving the problem OF
Slavery. But what occasions deep sorrow
and pain, believe me, to all lovers of your
great country, is to find that instead of adop-
ting any means, however slow and gradual,
to relieve yourselves Of it, You are constant
ly trying to extend and consolidate system
which is not only opposed to all the princi-
Piles of morality, but, as it appears to me, is
pregnant with appalling and inevitable dan
gers to the future of the Republic itself. Tell
your countrymen this from me-" These are
wise and worthy words, coming from an au-
thority than whom there exists not greater
at this moment on the face Of the earth

DRESS OF GENTLEMEN.-The Newport
correspondence ofsthe Providence Journal
makes the following comments on the pres
est fashionable extravaganza INDUCED in by
masculine "Young America :" Gan extrava-
CANT quantity of jewelry is particularly
marked in the dress of gentlemen of this
season, and one frequently sees worn at the
same time, three or four studs as large as a
dime, some of them extremely costly; five
or six vest buttons of mosaic and gold, near.
ly as large as an American quarter, heavy
chain, to which is attached charms Heaven
save the mark-keys and seals, and from o
button-hole bangles coral coat clasp. Then
on each hand, rings are worn, one of which
must be of enormous dimensions, for sig
net a gold-headed walking stick must also
be conspicuous, and, to add to the effect, the
mustache must be curled la Louis Napoleon
whilst an air of fragrance, drawn from a free
use of 5ouqus de Newporz,' completes the
tout ensemble 2"

The CHARLESTON DUEL.-Mr. A. j. Nc
Grath was nominated as the Fillmore can
didate for Congress, in the Charleston, S. c..
District. A number of articles signed "Nul-
lifer," have lately appeared in the Charles
ton Mercury, in which Mr.. McGrath was
attacked, and his brother challenged Mr.
Tabor, editor of the paper. A duel was the
consequence, and Mr.. Tabor was killed.
Since the duel, the Charleston Papers have
published a correspondence between Edwin
Rhett, Jr., and A. j. McGrath. Rhett claims
the authorship of the articles signed Null.
fer, and called upon McGrath to vindicate
his own honor and prevent the duel between
his brother and Mr.. Tabor. Mr.. McGratt
replies that Rhett's letter conveyed to him
the first intimation of the duel and he has
tened to Charleston to prevent it, but was
too late. In regard to Rhett's challenge, he
says he will follow the dictates of his owr
sense of propriety. He has withdrawn as .
candidate for Congress. s.g 1res .a.o.r.

RUNAwAYs.-The running away of horses
through our streets is getting too frequent
too fashionable. Even old horses that have
not during the last six years ever beer
known to so mile in less than twenty
minutes, have caught the infection and moi
day passes, but there are three or four
runaways, breaking up carriages, spilline
out women and children, and sometimes men
against corners of fences and piles of brick
and into beds of mortar, breaking heads and
ribs and dislocating shoulders and ankles
and brnising, and tearing clothes, and kill
ing horses, &c. If it can be, it is high time
it should be stopped. Either the horses arc
too spirited or the streets too narrow and
obstructed, or the drivers too-~too-excited
or all these causes combined, that makes the
riding in carriages and the crossing of streets
attended with great personal danger. Mike
Walsh used to say that man would have to
exercise more judgment to cross Broadway
in safety than it would to qualify respecta.
BILE justice of the peace. If these things
continue in St. Paul, how long will it be be-
fore some heart-rending calamity will take
place that will put the whole city in mourn
ing ? We shudder to think of it. Cannot
some ordinance be framed that will in a mea-
sure lessen the danger? Think of it, City
Fathers, think of it.

The California Nomination.

The Republican nominations which were
made by the State Convention which assem-
bled at Sacramento on the 9th August
formed ticket of which any party might
we'll be proud. Alexander Bell, of Los An
gelos, who heads the electoral ticket, has
been resident of California for more than
thirty years, and he is the most popular man
among the native Calfornians that could
have been found. His selection was a most
judicious one. Judge Tracy, of San Fran
cisco, the other elector at large, is also most
excellent selection. He is said to be the
most eloquent political orator in the State.
In regard to the Congressional ticket the
Republicans have been equally happy. Ira
P. Rankin is gentleman well known to our
fellow citizens. Some fifteen years since he
was member of the firm of Holbrook, Car
ter & Co., and afterwards of the firm of Car
ter & Rankin. An intelligent merchant,
gentleman of spotless integrity as well as of
fine abilities, he will do much to restore the
good character of his adopted State, and to
purify her fame, if he shall be selected in
place of the murderer and black-leg who now
disgraces the State as its Representative in
Congress. Tom Cox, of Plumas, as he is
familiarity called, is spoken of as q speaker
of remarkable Wit, hupor, and power. A
miner by profession, formerly adeading Dem
ocrat, but thoroughly disguised with the
outrages of his old party, his selection is
universally regarded as a great hit. The
moral fitness of both. candidates was most
thoroughly scrutinized, and the result being
satisfactory, the Convention made their nom
iuation unanimous and enthusiastic,

The closing Day of the Fair.

The concourse Of on the Fair Grounds on
Friday was again very large. The chic
event of the day was the delivery of the
Annual Address by Governor Ramsey and
the awarding of Premiums. The discourse
of Governor Ramsey was an able and prac-
teal one, reviewing at length the success
that had attended agricultural pursuits in
our Territory, and showing the excellence
of our soil for all kinds of grains and other
crops which are produced in the Middle and
Western States. The address will be pub
lshed.
In our brief sketch of Saturday, we omit
ted to mention the excellent article of rag
carpet manufactured by Mr.. Walters, of St.
Paul; also some fancy needle work, exc
cuted by little daughter of Truman NJ.
Smith, only eight years old.
The list of premiums, and to whom
awarded, will be published as soon as we
can procure a corrected copy.

ing of the people in Ohio and Indiana but
have nowhere seen any thing like this
The estimates of the numbers vary, as men
who make them are or are not in the habit
of computing computing crowds. The low
est figure that have seen $4,000, and from
that point the const is upward, until lOO,-
600 is reached. The first may appear fab,i-
lous; but were you here to see, you could

at this writing, when the attendance is larg-
est, you may judge. 1t cannot fall short Of
eighty thousand! They come from every
nook and corner of the State-not a county
that has not its hundreds of representatives
and some counties Immediately surrounding
this spot, have thousands. OF course, it is
