ma II is generally understood that the
coup d etat of Mayor Wood at the recent Sy-
raeuse Convention was great mistake. A
correspondent of the Philadelphia Press
saws: aAs matter of mere policy, 1t was
doubtless the most stupid, as certainly as 1t
WAC the most suicidal and fatal, blunder
that could possibly have been committed.
So badly was it tanned and so bunglingly
executed, that with the exception of that
obstinate, opinionated, crotchety person, Mr.
AIyord, of Syracuse, and three other sore
heads, leach utterly devoid of influence in
his own locality,) the whole seven and
twenty Hards, marshalled by Mr.. Dickinson
and Mr.. Croswell, became disguised, and
Immediately sought the repose as well as
the regularity of the Convention proper.
Mr.. Dickinson evinced his characteristic
shrewdness and tact by making it the peg
on which to hang speech and a letter, and
afforded most desirable opportunity of re-
Installing himself in the good feelings of his
historical opponents; they met him cor
daily and treated him with magnanimity
Indeed, to the custom-house interest and to
those who represent the respectability of the
Hards, the knocking down of the Temporal

godsend they could have possibly had"

Guthrie is the fayorite of the Albany New
York Regency for the Presidency. 1t says:
douglas is dropped because his money is
all spent, and Guthrie is taken up because
the spoilsmen believe he can be bled to the
tune of million of dollars. 1t is believed
he is worth two millions; bat this is doubt
less an exaggeration. He has, however,
enough to make good thing for the BUTCH
ers of the Regency. Ii is said he cares not
so much for money as for honor; and if that
be so, he is just the man to suit them. 1t is
for him that Wise has been victimized, and
Dickinson soon will be. The latter, not

Our District Fair.

This Fair commences October Sd, and,last
till the It'll, inclusive. The new Fair
Grounds have, already, without any Fair,
and still in an unfinished condition, proved
a decided success. The new-fashioned horse
course, in form of figure 8, and one-half
mile around, has already, for several days,
been tried by our fast trotters and PAGERS,
and is pronounced by the judges to be the
finest track in this part of the country. The
grounds are beautifully arranged, very pref
tily improved, and admirably adapted to
festival of any kind, but especially to an
Agricultural and Mechanical Fair. There
is abundance of water for all purposes, steam
fire engines and hand fire engines included.
The most delightful forest shade, and new
as all the Improvements are, there will De
free seats for thousands. A neat cottage for
the exclusive use of the ladies, is being Con-
structed, and ample arrangements are
making for confections and refreshments of
every necessary description during the Fair.
Ahc nc" NftOo-iUS az ASeANnCH hOiA oihnOss
every point Of the compass by good roads,
and from the number of buggies and car
riages daily visiting them already prove the
principal point Of attraction in the neigh
borhood of the city. There has never been
an enterprise for pleasure and instruction in
this county, which has attracted half the
general interest which these Fair Grounds
have done, and when the present improve
ments are completed, all our people will
feel more interest in seeing the Grounds
alone, than they ever felt in seeing the old
Grounds on an exhibition day.
Three miles from town, a slow Railroad
train takes you there in six or seven minutes,
landing yea on platform at the entrance
gate without fatigue or the annoyance of
dust, and when during the Fair train
shall run every hour or every half hour,
carrying adults there and back for aquarter
and children at half price, thousands will
go for the ride and to see the green woods
and breath the fresh air, who never attend
ed Fair before. ,-s -

Wholesale Clothing House:


: IL Clothing trade of the West Was comparatively
of small amount, aud confined almost exclu-
siyely a retail business in the larger towns and
cities alone. Now this line of Goods has become
an almost indispensable part of the stock of every
general Dry Goods store from the crowded city 20
the cross-road stand. Like all changes In trade,
however this one has not been produced except for
the best of reasons. Among these the great
saving of material by cutting large quantity Of
garments together-the superior work and speed Of
sewing machines in manufacturing-the great saw
ing of time in waiting for your ''turn" az the Tar
lors-the uncertainty Of even sheR getting a salts
factory "ft," and above all the saving Of at least
OHe-hdif the cost of the garment in the price. For
a number of years this has only been part Of our
general Dry Goods business, but we have made
arrangements to devote whole house exclu-
sively TO il alone with such lines of Notions and
Furnishing Goods will be necessary and desirable
in that trade Relieving that the true interest Of
the trade will be to sustain in this enterprise,
We would respectfully announce that We now have
on band one of the largest and most desirable
stocks Of WELL MADE CLOTHING that was
ever offered 10 the trade of the West.
We respectfully solicit call from all our old
friends and the trade generally. We charge moth
ing for Snoring our goods, and much il You bUg

STEAM FIRE ENGINE AT THE FAIR-Mr
A. B. LArTA, Of Cincinnati telegraphed to
John s. Harrington, Esq, Secretary of the
Marion County Agricultural Society on Sat
urday, that he would be in Indianapolis du-
ring the present week, anC exhibitone of his
Steam Fire Engines at the County Fair
This is an attraction that we did not expect
to have.--IndidndpoI Journal.
One of the objects of our City Council in
expanding about $3.50, for the exhibition of
Steam Fire Engine in our city during the
District Fair, was to give additional inter-
est to that occasion, and induce many from
distance to be present, who might other
wise stay away. 1t seems that Mr.. LATTA
having an axe of his own to grind, is exhib-
ting the engine at indianapolis, at the
Marion County Fair.
Many persons from Terre Haute and vi
cinity, viii, doubtless, go to indianapolis to
see the machine, who would otherwise have
visited our city had the engine not been frs,
exhibited at the Capital. Either the good
people of indianapolis are enjoying an I'M
usual sight with them, at our expense, or
Mr.. LArrA is making bis tour more prof.
table than the one in which be sunk $1,000
in one or two weeks. At any rate he has
marred what we thought would he a pery
peculiar feature of orr District Fair, and
for which we paid or are to pay our money.

The victim and murderer had just returned
from California, the former paying all expen-

howell was visited on Sunday morning last,
by the neighbors, both the mother and
child were found dead.
