EMIGRATION from the Northern States

tarded this season by wide spread inn
preston chat our section IS in an unsettled
and unhealthy political and social condi-
ton. This Is great mistake and does us
great injustice. There are no Kuklux or
Civilizations or secret societies Of such a
nature in East Tennessee. All classes and
colors enjoy as perfect security in person and
property as is found in any State in the
Union. Allwho come can rest assured that

citizens, they win find a hearty welcome,
ample protection, aud as much freedom in

Coal is said to have been discovered on
the west side of the bluff, west Of Smith S
Valley, in the town of Campbell, about
six miles east of La Crosse. A well has
been dug to the depth Of about forty
feet, and the strong odor of petroleum
has repeatedly driven the men from the

quite an item to La Crosse.

A special to the Tribune says: 1.-THE
investigation by the United States Court
of Claims into the various claims
against the United States Tor cotton
seized by the Government OFFICERS dur
ing the rebellion brings out some re-
markable developments, which tend 10
throw additional light on the mystery
which has surrounded the sale OF Dteph
by the Government agents shortly aftcr
it was seized from the rebels during. the
war. The Government realized from
the sale about $30 100000, but the exam,
nations of the Government agents
books and other evidence which has
been obtained through the. prosecution
of these claims reveals the fact that the
cotton was worth over twice that
amount. It appears that some OF the
agents at New York disposed Of the cot.
ton at 20cents o pound, when its market
value at the time was Is cents per
pound. Some of the agents appear TO
have been in collusion with the pur-
chasers, and the poorest kinds of cotton
were shown as samples Of the entire lot
held. by the Government, the bidders
getting it by this arrangement at the
low figure Of % cents per pound ana
subsequently selling it. at the market
price, thereby securing a handsome some
profit. The claimants! however, refuse
to base their claims at Q figure less than
its market value at the time of the sale,
and it is feared that the Government
will, in refusing the money for these
cotton seizures, be considerable loser!
especially now that the British claim;
ants; stand q chance before the mixed
commission Of being allowed some COM
pension for these losses. 1t Is pow
known at the Treasury that several OF
these cotton agents defrauded the Gov
ernment out Of large amounts of money
The accounts show this, but what steps
the United States will take to recover It's

The Dance at the Academy.

To heighten the attractions OF
Fair week, and TO the pleasures of
the day, add the enjoymsnts of the
evening, tho young people of Alb
beville resolved to have dance at
the Female Academy. on Wednes-
day evening Of last week. There
was no lack Of material in the
p1easure-loving of both sexes, and
hence the affair was soon arranged.
A committee consisting of Messrs;
j. Walter Gray, W. ". Vance, Joel
S. Perrin, Lewis Wardlaw, and W.
S. Marshall, were appointed to make
preliminary. preparations and all
awaited with eager anticipation the
coming enjoyment.
At an early hour the company
assembled, consisting Of a goodly
array of young ladies and gentle
men of the village, as we'll as many
visitors from Greanwood, Cokes-
bury, and other portions Of ourDis-
trict, and from the adjoining Dis
tricts of Anderson, Greenyille, Lau-
rcns and Edgefeld. All seemed to
enter with spiritinto the enjoyments
of the evening, and with good mu-
sic and the exhilaration of the dance
tripping it on "the light, fantas-
tic toe, the hours passed pleas
antly away.
Among those present, doing hon:
or to the OCCASION, and giving zest
to its enjoyment, were General Nc,
Gowan and lady, Col. Cothran and
lady, and Solicitor Perry. The
General was not content to bo a
mere s'looker-on in Vienna" but
entered into the full enjoyment of
the mazy ring, and observed with
especial grace the command "honor
your partners" ;" The Solicitor also
practiccd here in another cou,twith
his wonted assiduity, and perhaps
equal success. In this had many
ollowers-as there is no license
required to practice here.
Very excellent music upon the
violin and harp was furnished by a
travelling troupe, then sojourning
in the village, which contributed
very much to the pleasures of the
evening. The dance was under the
superintcnlapce of Messrs. Gray
and Perrin, as "masters Of ceremo-.
nies," and their earnest and efici-
ent cooperation contributed very
much to the general enjoyment.
AT a timely hour the company
dispersed, after pleasant evenings
entertainment, and without any
thing to disturb the harmony and
good feeling Of the occasion.

The AbbeVil1e Fair.

The long looked for, and the much
talked.about Abbeville Fair has como
and gone-tho crowds have departed
tho premiuma have bcen, awarded
| -and it becomes our duty and privi
logo to chroniele its success, and te
bring to view briefly somc Of the
prominent features of the exhibition,
And here at the outset VIC may ad'
vert to that, which constituted per.
haps its most remarkable character
istic - tho crowds in attendance,
Wednesday the opening day was
rainy and disagrccahlo, but Thursday
opened as fair ard serene as a May
morning, with everything in external
natnrc TO tempt one to seek enjoyment
.nndcr the blue skies, and in the bal
my air. AS a consequence the crowd
was immense. Every available horse
and mulc, and buggy and carriage in
the District seemed to have been
pressed into requisitioa, and came rel-
ling in. with their living freight Of all
sexes, ages and conditions--young
mon and maidens-old men and
matrons-boys and girls, and even the
baby in arms-the darley and his
employer-gravo professors and col
.lcge students from Due West, and
students and teachers alike from
Wellington. Special trains too brought
large crowds from Cokcsbury, Green
wood and Ninety Six, whilst visitors
were present in large numbers
from Greenvillc, Anderson, Laurens,
and EdgoAeld-.ladies and gentlemen,
drawn together by the promised en-
joyments and varied attractions which
make our. annual Fairs, gala occasions.
A remarkable feature, of tho as
sembly was not merely its size, but
those surroundings, which speak
trumpct-tongucd of happy homes and
thrifty farms and prosperous industry
the handsome carriage, tho neat
buggy, the well,fed mule, the splendid
|draught horse, the prancing courser-
above all the air of contentment and
enjoyment which pcrvaded the crowds
of well-clad gentlemen, and gaily,
dressed ladies. Surely these things
will compare with those of the pros
porous ante bellum days, and teach us
that "there is is life in the old land
yet" ,......
