lime EXTENDED.-The Directors
Of the State Fair at New Orleans
have extended the time for holding
their present exhibition, until, and
including Sunday, the 18th inst,
owing to the unfavorable weather
which has attended the enterprise
for so many days, preventing thou
sands from visiting it, and limiting
the number of contributions designed
for exhibition.
BY this wise movement on the
part Of the Directors, we have no
doubt they will have the satisfaction
Of realizing their fondest expectations
regarding most brilliant success for
their Fair. Such, we earnestly hope,
will be the case.

EERAcIrY.-The question of veracity started
between the President and Grant, appears to
have terminated in favor of the former, and with
great damage to the character ofthe latter. The
President, at the time Grant gave up the War
Office 10 Stanton, made public the statement that
Grant had agreed to give him due notice, if at
any time be should desire to resign the Secre.
tarysbip. Grant, however, failed TO give such
notice, but gave mp to Stanton at once. The
President, of course, felt indignant at such q
breach of promise aud the affair soon became
public. Grant then denied that be had agreed
to give "due notice, and subsequently wrote a
letter TO the President to the same effect 10
that letter be charged the President with trying
to il jure his character before the country. The
former has, nevertheless cleared his skirts on
the score of vcracity, as the most of his Cabinet
officers heard Grant agree to give the due no.
tice, and have taken occasion to give the pub,
lie due notice Of that fact, also. And now, if
Ulysses S-tbe Silent, is injured before the
country, it is his own fault. He should have
confined himself to the truth, or kept what be-
comes him best--silent. lie hardly every opens
his mouth, but when he does it is usually TO
puff out cloud of smoke, or to utter something
untrnthful that cannot but "injure his charac-
ter before the country" Itis generally So with
