Tho GeOrgia State Fair.


MACON, Nov. 16.-The crowd here in attend
ance upon the State Fair is immense and every
train brings fresh accessions. General Wade
Hampton arrived here this morning. He will
deliver the annual address before the State Agri-
cultural Society. Hon. Mark a. Cooper delivered
an address this afternoon upon the destiny of
Georgia, and the interests and policy of cotton
planters indicated thereby. 1t was a strong,
practical effort and was received with much
favor by large and attentive audience.

tested by their opponents in the Senate.

CHICAGO, Nov. 17.-Additional letters from
Pembina, dated November 3 and 4, received at
st. Paul, give additional particulars of the Red
river rebellion. 1t seems that Governor MeDou-
gall remained over night in the second Hudson
Bay stockade about two miles from the United
States border. In the morning he was notified
by five hundred rebels to leave the British terri
tory by nine o'clock, which he declined to do.
At nine o'clock the rebels marched into the
stockade, and the Governor and his party
marched out in haste, and betook themselves to
United States territory. The rebels are deter
mined, and the inaccessibility of the country
the near approach of winter, and other obsta-
cles, render doubtful the success of military
operations. The rebellion is temporary sue
cess, and further developments are awaited.
The cause of the uprising is opposition to being
annexed to the Canadian Confederation under
the New Dominion and Il determination on the
part of the people of the British Red River
settlement that they shall be allowed to remain
independent of the British colony, and subject
only to the Government of England. The affair
will probably result in war and bloodshed before

both by whites and the Indians, and according to
the terms Of recent treaty all their lands have been

homeless. The committee were among the Indians

A special despatch to the New York World, dated
Yesterday, says:-
O1iciai dispatches to the State Department from

kinds OF influences are being brought TO bear on the
President TO induce him to recommend the recogni-

A FAMILY HORROR.
HideOus Crime in the Household of a Deceased
Governor of Illinois.


From the PittSJlvg Post NoU. Is.
BY gentleman who arrived in this city from Car
roton, Greene county, Illinois, yesterday we learn
the general facts concerning startling crime IN
that vicinity
1t involves the family of widowed daughter OF
late Governor of Illinois, For some Tune suspicious
have been had that all was not right with young
daughter belonging TO the family, who became the
object OF neighborhood scandal Two or three weeks
ago she was taken very sick, and the ad OF phys-
clan was called in, by whom she was FOUND 10 be In
labor. He contented himself by prescribing, but, as
he now says did not remain until the de'louement.
Several days having passed, and matters resqming
their ordinary course, without any apparent cnange
in the number OF the family, suspicion was excited,
which, becoming somewhat uncomfortable to the
physician referred TO- led him to make clean breast
OF his knowledge of the affair." on Wednesday last
matters came to crisis, resulting in search OF the
premises, when the body OF newly-born infant was
found In outhouse vault on the premises Physicians
who examined the remains gave It as their opinion
that the child had been born alive Our informant
states that the widow, her daughter ana son.ln,
law, whose wife Is now dead, but who is suspected
OF knowing quite,too much OF the AFFAIR have been
arrested and held for examination. The community
are reported TO be very much excited over the anair
in their midst.

~ X@
= ... citement Among the Fraternity.
The managers of the lottery business in this city
and their ticket agents are very much disturbed by
the recent action of Supervisor butcher who has
seized the books OF the principal offices, and has
also caused the arrest of the dealers who are en-
gagged in the sale of tickets without previously obtain
ing the necessary Government license. Yesterday
the various persons interested were constantly on
the move between the offices OF Collector Bailey OF
the Thirty-second internal Bevenue District in
Cedar street, and that OF Supervisor butcher, in
Liberty street. The latter has the matter In charge
and was kept busy giving an audience TO the many
who were anxious to explain their rela tonship to
the case or who sought for information In regard to
his present status. Prominent among those seen at
the entrance to the Supervisors ONCE was an eX-
State Senator and an eX-member OF the lower house
OF Congress. His establishment Is reported to be
under seizure; it is said that the difference already
discovered in the returns OF receipts TO the Asses
OF the district and the actual receipts viii war
rant the commencement OF an action III the United
States Courts for the recovery OF at least $4,000 tax
not paid, besides the penalties for failure to make
proper returns. Some of the vendors OF the lottery
tickets say that they deposited the SlO0 license fee
with their principal as far back as March last to
able him TO procure for them the government
license but that he iailed to do so ana instead re-
tains the money, leaving them liable 10 arrest and
punishment for failure TO comply with tne revenue
law In this connection, the dealers lnsnuate that
the action OF the chief manager Is suggested more
by desire on his part to drive many OF lhe dealers
out OF the business, and to secure monopoly OF it
to himself and his chosen people AVery lew days
will doubtless develop this whole matter-N Y.

GAY GAMBOLIERS.

Sudden Descent of Police n Gambling Esta-

IL has been known to many OF the members OF the
police force for some time that at certain locality
on washington street might be found gambling

was more numerously attended than any similar
establishment in the CITY, 1t was visited oy persons
of almost every age and aevotees'
mately acquainted with the gentle disposition OF the
tiger. The worshippers were all earnestly engaged
at their devotlons, when consternatlon suddeny
seized upon every one. The Assyrlan had "come
down like a wolf on the fold, their cohorts chleny
cleaning with blue, and very Rnaiy gathered . tnen
as there proved to be about ortyone, aud tne whoe
force could not gain access to the rooms az once,
which were in the second story, and the arrests nad
to be made land sent down stairs IN detachments;
Eight OF the party were professional gamblers, ana
the balance noviclates great many cnips were we're
secured, but the most valuable machinery was
spirited away 80, -
1t was a sorry sight to see the poor fellows ar
ranged upon the sidewalk previous TO receiving Tue
order to torWardn toward Sheriff Parkers Institute,
and t was still more amusing to hear the many en-
treaties uttered by some to the police that tney
would not take them 10 jail. One would excite the
compassion OF the police by stating tnat ne Wouiu
not have his wife know of his arrest Tor the world
another feared exposure on account OF MS EN-
ployers, and they tried nearly every metnOd 10 Ia
duce the nexorabe policemen to relax their rlgld
and indscrimnate rules, that they might De favored
this once only, but they wouldn't relax. The pro-
pretors OF the tiger gave bail for their appearance

ance for trial; others, too, who We're fortunate
enough to possess collateral equivalents TO tne
amount OF bail demanded were also liberated, ana
the impecunous had to suffer incarceration. Some
of the gentlemen betrayed fearlessness and swag-
gered considerably y-exultngly remarking that they
would criminate some high officials If they were moi

these means
This will prove wholesome lesson, we hope, tc

The Spanish GuDbORts mt Delamater's Said to
be in Peril-ThreaIened Burning by the
Cubans.
The work of completing the Spanish flotilla, now
lying at the Delamatec Iron Works, is proceeding
rapidly and there is every prospect OF the vessels
completion by the first week in December.
A startling rumor is abroad to the effect that the
vessels 10 be burned and scuted by the enemies
OF Spain, while lying at their docks on the Hudson.
There good reason to believe that the friends OF
Cuba and Peru have long regarded them with
anxiety. Fearing that eur Government may be pre-
vailed upon 10 release the craft they will probably
strike desperate blow at them while yet there is
time to do It,
They are built OF wood, moored side by side, and
should fresh breeze be blowing, a seaman knows
at which end OF the tier to start the fire so that il
will burn rapidly and well. In such an event the
fleet would be destroyed long before assistance could
arrive, and II any vessels were saved from the de-
sinking them, which would attain the object OF the
incendiaries just as well as the destruction by fire.
