= The Georgia State Fair, at Macon,
has been a triumphant success. Every
section of the State was represented. both
in person and by its agricultural products,
and the exercises were of highly inter
esting character Hon. Mark A. Cooper
delivered an oration upon "The Destiny of
Georgia." predicting that in time the 500,
600 bales of cotton now annually put into
tile market from that State will be manu-
featured within it's own limits. He urged
the planters to seize upon the water'priv-
ileges now in the market for sale at low
prices, and hold them for future use when
ever the capital of Georgia is sufficient for
their development. Mr. Cooper depreca-
ted the payment of large annual sums to
Northern manufacturers when Georgia
has equal facilities within its own limits.
The address was listened to by large and
appyeciative audience. The grounds of the
society cover one hundred and forty-hve
acres, and are surrounded by substan-
tial fence. It's building was once Con.
federate laboratory. It's two stories high,
and contains an immense nall and eigh
teen smaller rooms. There is also capa'
cious veocipede rink, ard an amphitheatre
with seats for Is, 900 persons.

TILE rrruRE on PARAGUAY

With his capital in the hands of the enemy,
with his Notifications destroyed, with his army
depleted and his country SO depopulated that
its ranks can be filled only with women, the
indomitable Lopez still keeps up the fight
The Allies have the great river, the capital
and perhaps one-tenth of the territory Lopez
still holds the rest, but with lorce
too weak to do moro than MAINTAIN
n guerrilla mountain warfare. Meanwhile,
the Brazilian Government has sent its Secre-
tnry of Foreign Affairs TO AsunciOn, the capt.
tai of Paraguay, to organize Provisional
Government. If the former declarations of
Brazil and her Allies can be relied upon, 1t is
not intended to destroy the independence of
Paraguay. but only to put an end to the rule
of Lopez. The object of the mission of a
Brazilian Minister to Asuncion, in case Brazil
honestly adhered to her former professions,
would therefore be to aid the people of Paraguay
to get rid of their Unsuitable tyrant, and to es-
tablish government with which the Allies
could treat for the reGstablishment of peace.
The latest movements of the Brazilian au-
thorities are, however, well calculated to cause
n suspicion that they will be in no haste to
restore the Government Of Paraguay to the
hands of the Paraguayans. The expenditures
of Brazil for the war have been heavy, and
the Emperor is naturally anxious to recover
them as soon as possible. For the pres
ent it is only the narrow strip of country on
the banks of the rivers Paraguay and Parana
OH which the Brazlians can draw and IL Lo-
PEI carries out his plan to contest the advances
of the Allies in the interior, it may yet DO n
long time before the whole of the Republic
can be put under contribution. But whether
part or the whole of the territory is in their
hands, the Brazilians will want to extort from
the people the largest possible amount OF taxes,
and to keep troops in Paraguay until the
last dollar of the war expenses shall have been
paid. With the exhausted condition OF tho
country, which by this time has probably
lost more than one half of its male population,
u vsaM take lang time before the best adj
minis.Sas!on ct the world would be able to
rniao Tia o-zsras of money in Paraguay.
Being thus unable to indemnify themselves in
money, the Brazilians may determine to seize
part of the territory in payment; and they
may do this tho moro boldly rs the Argentine
Government has made haste to take possession

Mr.. johnson has occasion to remember that
a mans foes shall sometimes be they OF his
own household Here has been the Mayor OF
his own town vetOing the soothing resolution
of the Aldermen to welcome their conquering
hero home. Certainly Mr.. johnson was III
danger of such treatment nowhere else Not
another town in the Union could be IN
duced to say that it wasn't glad he was
out of Washington. Baltimore welcomed
him. The Mayor of Philadelphia would
have abandoned dozen fishing parties
for the pleasure of seeing him on his way
from the White House, never to return. The
Red Hot Democrats of New-York would have
heated themselves to a seven-fold radiance at
every saloon in the Five Points District in his
honor. Still the Greenville Mayor was not
wholly without excuse. Other towns could
well afford to speed Mr.. Johnson on his way
from the capital. He wasn't going to stay
with them for the rest of his life!

The nearly continuous cold of the present
month has been very opportune, not only IN
keeping back the buds which were in danger
of premature development, but In diminishing
the danger of Spring freshets. In all the re-
gion north of us, but especially in the noun
tain districts of Vermont New-Hampshire, and
this State, the SHOWS of this Winter have been
frequent and heavy, and the accumulated pro-
duct was several feet deep prior to the ftful
thaws of last week. A heavy rain or few
days of hot sunshine now would render enor-
nous damage from floods inevitable. Cold,
bright weather for week more is greatly to be
desired

Contrary to general expectation, the Senate
failed yesterday to dispose of the Tcnurc-of-
Civil Offices act. In the Republican caucus
majority of the Senators agreed with us IN
opposing repeal There was some hasty talk
by the minority, which is doubtless now re-
gretted; and the Democrats were for little
time hopeful of an opportunity to hold the
balance of power, and use it to create
iealousies and dissensions among the supporters
of the Administration. Better counsels, how
ever, prevailed The effort for unconditional
repeal seems now to be practically abandoned.
Certain notifications are to be prepared,
leaving the President without restrictions MS to
his Cabinet, relieving him from the necessity
of reporting the reasons for removals made
during the recess of the Senate, and the like !;
and the draft of these changes is to he con-
sidered in caucus on Wednesday,

The elections for the Hungarian House OF
Deputies, which have just taken place, have SO
far resulted in majority for the Deak or
Government party. The Old Conservative
party in Hungary appears to be nearly extinct
and to have been absorbed by the Deak party.
The only formidable opponent of the Govern
ment is the Radical party, which demands
greater independence of Austria than at present
exists The non-Magyar nationalities, although
when united they outnumber the Magyars' are
but poorly organized, and therefore but feeoiy
represented. In Croatia, the party winch
is friendly to union with Hungary
had a majority at the last elections. The Ser
VANS and Roumanians are generally decidedly
hostile TO Hungary, and demand to be set OH
rs separate crownlands; but they elect com
paratively only small number of deputies
A few weeks ago a meeting of leading men OF
all non Magyar nationalities was held to or
ganize a systematic and combined opposition
to the Magyars; but it seems not to have led
TO great results. The Roumanians in TransyI'
vana are reported by cable to have abstaineu
from voting.

The House of Representatives yesterday was
the scene of an interesting debate on Adjourn
ment. We have seldom been able to agree
with both parties to a controversy, but in tins
instance we can. We agree with Mr.. Dawes
that general legislation should be postponed TO
next Winter; we agree with Mr.. Lawrence ana
Gen. Butler that Congress should noC provide
for the safety of loyal men in the South, and
for the due enforcement of the Reconstruction
acts And we add that Congress will be re-
creant to a most urgent duty if it shall adjourn
without at least trying to neutraze the mon
strous Naturalization frauds of 1868 and pro-
vide effectively against their repetition.

of the vast territory of the Cbaco, which has
hitherto been disputed ground between 1t and
Paraguay, and which, in area, exceeds the
whole of Paraguay Proper. If Brazil consents
to this incorporation of the whole Of the Chaco
with the Argentine Republic, the latter cannot
offer much opposition, in ease Brazil secures
her war expenses by the annexation OF Para
quay Proper. However this question may be
ultimately decided, for the present the capital
of Paraguay is occupied by Brazilian troops
exclusively, and the reconstruction of the
country begins under Brazilian auspices
