Nebraska Fairs.

Two County Fairs and one State
were held this season in Nebraska,
viz: Richardson and Nemaha Coun-
ties, and State Fair at Nebraska City.
The Editor in chief Of this paper has
already, in detail, informed the read
ers of the Advertiser as to the Nemaha
County Fair. The Richardson County
Fair, we are informed, was gotten up
in good style, and was well attended.
The display of stock and products, it
is said, were very fine, the latter par
tieularly characteristic of Nebraska.
1t was our intention to have been with
the friends in Richardson, but circum-
stances prevented.
We were present at the Second An
nual State Fair, held at Nebraska
City, and were well pleased with it.
1t was held on the ground recently
purchased and fitted up by the Otoe
County Agricultural Society. The
grounds in most respects are admirably
adapted, and are improved with sub
stantial and excellent buildings. We
think, however, hestockholders made
a mistake in going so far from the
city; too far to be profitable, we fear.
There was a fine display Of almost
everything usually shown at Fairs.
The exhibition Of Blooded Horses and
Cattle was good anywhere. Otoe,
Nemaha and Cass Counties, in this
State, and Iowa, furnished most X
cellent horses Of all grades. among
which was Judge MasOn's fine horse
Glencoe. There were some fine short
horn Cattle, recently brought into
Otoe County by Gilmore and Mccain,
two enterprising stock men. The ex-
hibition of hogs wa also good, partic-
uiarly Chester Whites and Suffolks.
There was a large display of Agricul-
tural impliments. The display of
fruits was number one as to quality,
and not inferior in quantity. Mr..
Masters, Wolf and West certainly had
as fine apples as one need wish to see.
Mr.. Raymond exhibited some fine
specimens Of Delaware, Catawba,
Clinton, isabella and Tayfor's Built
Grapes little late in season, but
showed well. The display on the part
Of the mechanics and business men of
Nebraska City was highly creditable.
The ladies were there in grand style
with their handiworks, without which
the fair would not have been complete.
Mrs. Gilmore's exhibition of %jellies,
both as to quality and variety, excelled
anything of the kind we ever saw.
There was a good exhibition of Bees
and Honey. Mr.. Kretchmer, of Red
Oak Junction, Iowa, exhibited his ia
nous Champion Hive, and a few col
Onies of Italian Bees. Altogether the
fair was one we may all feel proud of.
The local committee did their whole
duty. and are entitled to the lasting
thanks of the friends Of Agriculture
in the State.
We did not hear Maj. Brooks adj
dress, but from the favorable acquain-
lance we made with him, feel assured
thai he spoke to the point.
We have not learned as to the fnan-
cial success of the Fair, but would
think it paid its way.

We're it not for the improved ma
ehineTy now in use upon our farms.
particularly reapers, mowers and
threshing machines, it would be utter
ly impossible to supply the home con-
sumption of grain in this country.
Supposing the grain was all cut by the
old fashioned sickle, the price of flour
would be so high as TO prevent the la
boring classes in our cities from using
the article.

HOW THEY TAKE 1T.

We were curious to know how the New
Orleans press would take the defeat Of the
Democratic party, and we looked for the
morning journals with some interest.
The Crescent says that it would be un-
candid to depreciate the disaster which the
elections have inflicted on the Democratic
cause; that there is no hope for them in
the North, but that the battle is now trans
ferred to the South, and that if there is ana
hope it is in carrying all of the Southern
States. In making an estimate they count
Virginia, Mississippi and Texas as necessa-
ry to their success. They claim Connect
cut, New York, New Jersey, Delaware.
California and Oregon for the Democracy,
and then only foot up majority of t,co
roteS,
The Times article is very brief Their
hope is in the future. "The cause yet re-
mains" Lack of numbers may put off
our day of deliverance, but it will never
theless come"
The Picaprne closes long and dreary
article on the causes of the defeat, with these
words which contain the gist of what they
have to say;
Let the November election go as it may,
the people of Louisiana should not weaken
any organization, or relax any effort, which
promises them the opportunity to redeem
their own State.
The Bee hopes that when the full returns
are in the Republican majorities will be
reduced, but "they are large enough to
satisfy us that General Grants election is
no longer problematical." They advise
the South to fall back to the attitude of
passive resistance.
The Commercial Bulletin has nothing to
say.

THE TIGERS.

On Monday last we published series Of
resolutions from the Tiger Club, and criti-
cized them and their authors.
Yesterday committee from that club
waited on us and requested a retraction of
our criticism. The committee expressed
no willingness to modify the sweeping
charge made by the club against the Re-
publican party, to the effect that at is
well known that the Radical party Of
this State is composed exclusively of un-
principled adventurers, domestic thieves
and ignorant negroes" and we declined to
retract our comments thereon.
We have to say, that when the preamble
and resolution shall modify their sweeping
denunclation We shall very eheerfully mod
ify our own language.

New YORK., October 10, 1868.
The political excitement in the Northern
States is at fever heat and the canvass i:
very animated. The people are becoming
thoroughly awakened to the true issues
now before them as between the candi.
dates OF the two parties for the highest Of
flee in their gift, and the general impress
sion at the present time is that the Repub-
| iican ticket will be successful in every
| Northern State.
ms State is considered certain for
Grant and Coliax, as the majority for the
seymour ticket in this city will not exceed
Z0,0OO on account of the detection of the
irish from the Democratic party.
The Germans of this city, it is said, will
vote for Grant and Colfax and for Hoffman
Tor Governor, so that while the State ia
considered safe for the former the chances
would seem to be favorable for the latter.
but my own impression is that Griswold
will be elected Governor by small major
lty. Connecticut is now considered GER
tain for Grant and Colfax in November
and the prospect in New Jersey, the onlv
other doubtful State, is that the Republi-
cans will carry it by about 1000 majority
The furore and excitement which existed
here in relation to the Water street revival
at the establishment of John Allen. famll.
larly known as the wickedest man in New
ork, is fast subsiding, and the probabl,-
ties now are that the Democrats of the
Fourth Ward, where Allen lives. will send
him to the Legislature, and thus finish him
as Jonn Morrissy was finished by sending
MIN to Congress. This excitement in re.
gard to that section of Water street where
Allen lives, has been productive of some
good, however, By the establishment of
mission house in the neighborLood. where
meetings are being daily held for the re-
llgious awakening of the denizens of that

DEAR SIR:
And we would earnestly declare to our
fellow-citizens our opinion that even the
most implaeable and ill-disposed of the
negro population, those who show the
worst spirit toward the white people. are
not half so much deserving our aversion
and non-interconrse with them as the de-
based whites who encourage and aid them,
and who become through their votes the
ofice-holding oppressors of the people.
Whatever of resentment you have should
be felt toward the latter and not against
the colored men. But in no case should
you permit this resentment to 90 farther
than to Withdraw from them all coun-
tenance, association and patronage, and to
thwart every effort they may make to main
