There is a fair show of grades and

an exhibition yesterday we noticed the
following animals: yearling BULL " A

The Durhams on exhibition were a DULL,

The exhibition ofpOultry is very light,
there being but comparatively few lots
on the grounds, though what there is Is
OF the choicest breeds.
Swine, also, appears to have been neg
lec,ed this year, though we think to-day
will witness better show In this class
than yesterday.
Floral Hall presents a very slim ap'

time and money expended by the society
and working committee Ofladies to make

and fine wares. The entry books OF this
class are to be kept open until II am. to
day, and it is to be hoped that the citi
zeps Of Rutland at least will contribute
their lust share toward swelling the lis
Of articles on exhibition to respectable
proportions.
Agricultural and Mechanical Halls
too, are deficient as regards the numbe
of articles on exhibition, though in eacI

COMING TO THE PoMT,-The prospect
OF the early termination OF the troubles
with the Indians in the far West, and
particularly on the line Of the Pacific
Railroad does not improve. The Indians
have notified the contractors on the Kan
sas Pacific Railway that the road shall
not be built beyond Fort Hayes; that
they mean war to the knife. Great ex-
element prevails along the route, and
the laborers are leaving, But Lieut..
Gen. Sherman, with his usual directness,
seems to be coming to the point, At the
last meeting with the Indian chiefs, on
Saturday, be said to them: III you don't
leave the roads alone l will kill you
and l will give you neither powder nor
ball till you make peace" That is a
sort of talk that "Mr. Lo" will under
stand, and is the only sort that will dc
any good.

shock, and another of his children had
the shoe on one of her feet torn off and
her foot somewhat burned.

Dexter arrived in New York on We'd

Weare glad TO see by our exchanges that
the Democracy throughout the State are
thoroue lily organizing into county and
township, Gibbs or associations. This is
what ou y ht to have been done long ago,
and had it been done. we, would have been
more successful in our elections. The De-
mocracV have been too inactive in the past,
while the IAbolitionists have left nothing
uRdone to carry out their wicked and de-
signing purposes. We must meet them In
the future with bold and united front,
and manfully contest for our rights, and in
order, to, do this we will have to be thor
oughly organized ~ With the proper Or
gan lzatioD, we are bound to be successful,
as the right must finally overcome the
wroHg. = If we would preserve the institu-
tions of our patriotic fathers from the
threatened destruction by the lawless
and ,treacherous party which now has con-
troll of the Government, we must combat
for them manfulIy. and in order to meet
them thus tits absolutely es sentlal that we
should be effectively organized. We may
hope vet to preserve our free institutions II
we Will immediately go to work, and ener-
Egetically and earnestly engage in the per-
formance of our high and holy duty. Let
no, one, then, be backward in this matter,
but let every county and township in the
State organize. We hope to see the De-
mocracy of Hardin county organize imme-
diately.9 We have important and laudable
work to perform-let US prepare for it,

An Eccen1ric Character.

A Scotch journal, the Inverness Courier,
records the death of an eccentric individual
named Hugh Miller, at the age of eighty
two. He adhered to the ancient style OF
tying the hair in a queue, and wore. the
broad blue bonnet in vogue nearly CEN
tury ago. The door of his hous had to do
service for both bipeds and quadrupeds,
the owner and his cattle occupying re-
spectively the opposite ends Of the same
domicile, while the poultry were allowed
to roost or lie in either end, as their in!
stincts dictated. To the modern modes OF
agriculture Hugh was a perfect stranger,
adhering rigidly. to the good old system OF
tillage which obtained some sixty years
ago. He ploughed shallow, ,sowed his grain
at least seven weeks later than the ordi-
nary time for doing so, and, as might be
expected, reaped deficient crop.

New york Dry Goods Trade.

The Ne,o York Commercial, in review of
the dry goods trade, says: lE9I1
Prices are not very firm. 1t is uncertain
if any great quantities of goods could be
dispose of at a reduction: Merchants are
bnvinV such amounts as the actual neces-
stiles of their trade require, and are very
cautious about accommodating stocks.-
Wooden goods do not show the same i'm
provementt The trade is without anima-
ton aud people have almost ceased to ex-
pect any change at present. The auction
sales OF foreign goods continue to be quite
animated, but Importers are generally sub
mittine to a loss on their earlier importa-
tions. Some goods imported this season
bring remunerative prices, but generally
the dress goods and spring fabrics can be
purchased cheaper here than they actually
cost to import. HgE7 Ssii3. #-5I 50

French Breach of Promise Case

The civil tribunal of the Seine has just
tried an action for breach ofprOmise brought
by aswan of tifty-six against cook offorIy-
five. Letters and portraits have been ex-
changed, the contract had been signed, and
the bridegroom awaited the bride at the
Marie; but, instead of appearing in per-
son, she sent message to the effect that
she had changed her mind, and would not
have him. He strove to find some consola-
tion by sning her for $500 francs damages,
but. the court decided that marriage was
free, and that by the code each party had a
right to break off the negotiation at any
time before the legal completion. He was
accordingly condemned to pay the costs.

covered 1,S08 francs in the Havre civil court

Deep.Sea SOundin&s by n New
b Method.

2 M. Paul Hedonins of Rouen, a member
of many learned societies S, has invented an,
apparatus towhich he has given the name
Of & Electro Bathometer," which can de-
termine with exactness the depths which
have hitherto remained unknown. some
experiments, have probably already taken
place near Paris. The depth of the Seine,
and that of the Bois de Boulogne, are not
indeed immeasprable by the old method,
but M. Hedonfn wishes to prove that he
can ascertain accurately with his apparatus
any depth whatever. The shock OF the
soilnding lead against the bottom deter
mines magnetic current which lnd!cates
at the surface, with electric promptitude,
the rrecise instant of contact. If this ia
rvention is successful we can easily see how
useful it may become in laying submarine

Rents i'm New YOrIk-Quaruer Day.
With the first of February tenants gem
erally signify their intention with regard
to another year, enabling landlords to form
an opinion in,regard to rents dating from
1st of May. Information derived from the
principal real estate offices would show that
the demand is brisk enough to keep rents
at stiff figure. One OF the brokers say s
the demand for dwellings of all classes
is more than usual, and that the supply is
much less. Undopbtedly, the number of
dwellings available is inadequate to the
wants of the population. The greatest de-
mand is for dwellings renting from $1,000
to $4,000 year, and suitable for two or
three families House agents rarely have
single dwelling of this description to of
fer. Most of the large estates have raised
(or contemplate raising May 1stl their rents
from ten to twenty per cent. as compared
with last year. This is considered necessary
from the fact that in many instances prop
erty has been leased for terms of two or
three years just expiring, thereby prevent=
ing an advance before now, in common
with other landlords. Notwithstanding the
general dullness of trade, it is stated that,
regardless of the amount of rent paid,
whenever a tenant gives notice of inability
to pay the advance demanded, others stand
ready to settle the question by taking the
house. The amount of property offered for
sale is about the same as in previous years,
differing only in a single respect, that it
generally consists of houses designed for
single families and valued at from $50. 000to
$4,000 1t may be said almost literally that
| no desirable houses worth from $4,000 to
$4,000 are in the market.
A decided improvement is noticed in the
price of real estate in Harlem and other To-
calities easily accessible from places of bus
| mess within the city.
Real estate brokers deny that there is any
endeavor on their part to keep up rents to
an exorbitant figure, and represent that on
! the contrary their interests would be adj
| vanced by an easier condition of the mar
! ket. ...... ee-.- .
I To show the gradual decrease taking
place in the supply of second class dwell
| ings compared with other descriptions, we
compile the following statement from the
| report of the superintendent of buildings
