The VIRGINIA STATE FAIR-We are
glad to learn that the Virginia Agricultu.
raj Fuir was great success. The old
Virginia spirit reappeared on the field,
and the "Old Dominion" showed that
she intends to be as great in peace us she
was good in war. We are grati6ed to find
that our sister State has entered so au-
spiciously upon the present field of ell
cient operations. Let every Southern
State go bravely to work to develop it's
resources. Let each State acquire wealth,
and political power will be found the To-
gical result of material strength.

GooD USE FOR OLD CASTLES. The
increase of crime in Prussia is such that
there is no more room in the prisons,
and the government has been obliged to
secure some old castles in which to ac-
commodate the surplus prisoners. AL
though the fact does not prove much in
favor of the home policy of Count Bis
marck, still it is turning the old estab-
lishments to good account. The spirits
OF the old barons of the middle ages will
doubtless be indignant at the idea of
being thrown into the company OF cul-
!prits who have passed the ordeal of a
modern police court. go

Last night, somewhere in the neighborhood Of
seven O'Clock. as near as could be ascertained, col
lson took place between two freight trains on the
Erie Railroad. within few miles Of Grey Court. The

lives were lost. Later In the evening the passenger
train due In Jersey City at fftynve minutes past nine
O'Clock was delayed at Paterson and did not arrive
until one O'Clock this morning. passenger who
arrived ON this train states that owing to the infor
nation OF the disaster not having been promptly tor
warded from Grey Court the succeeding train OF
cars carrying passengers, was near meeting with .
similar accident by encounterlng the ruins OF the
cars that were smashed up; but the watchfunees OF

ANOTHER CUBAN EXPEDITION.

1t was rumored yesterday that another expedition
of Cuban volunteers was about being despatched
from this city. But 1t seems that the rumor orgi-

believed to be desirous to Join the Cuban patriot
army have left for Halifax, from whence, as some
are inclined 70 believe they intend to take passage
for another port and seek conveyance to the Ever

20 THE EDITOR OF THE HEgALD:--
We ere glad to sec by o report Of the proceedings
in Congress that there are some members VINO
favor Western interests ana by this we mean ths
producing, and particularly the farm iaborlng in-
tcrcsts--tne value of exports. The fashion OF the
time has changed, wonderfully ana lamentaoly
changed. once upon a time our rulers favored
home PRODUCES, home labor, home interests. They
sought to elevate labor TO lift up the down trod.
dcu; TO make labor credit TO the IaDorer; 10 make
our land home Tor the oppressed OF Europe and
q JOY to our own people. What do we now see ?
The dominant power IN the land Is now striving TO
bring down the price OF labor and the laborer Ia
our country 10 the level OF the European laborer.
They appear 10 have lost all hope OF clevatng the
iaboFeF ot Europe to our elevated standard aud as
they think the chief good lies in an equilibrium,
they are determined 10 bring down our standard.
THIS Is like the friendship OF boon conpanion In a
drunEcn roic, when, ndina his friend IN the gutter
and unable to sep h,m out OF the mire very chival-
rously determined TO lie down with him. rhis IS the
