The CorroN STATES AIR-Tuesday
Tas the dny appointed for the opening
OF the third annual exhibition OF tho
Cotton States Mechanics and Agricultu-
ral Fair Association, at Augusta. The
gates of the grounds opened at half.paet
3 o'clock. but owing to the weather. and
the fact that it was generally regarded as
"opening day." the crowd during the
morning was not very large, and the visi-
tors confined their attention principally
to the floral and industrial hall.
JUSTICE DoUaHERTY DEAD.-A private
despatch received in Atlanta announces
the death, in New York, Of Mr.. VIM
Dougherty, one Of the most distin guish-
ed lawyers in Georgia. He had long
been sinking. and his death created
little surprise, though universal regret,
among his numerous friends and ac-
quaintances.
The Macon Telegraph reports that on
Friday two negro men had an alterca-
ton at shanty near Mrs. McCall's,
three miles out on the Macon and Au-
gusta Railroad, in which one of them
was killed. The difficulty was over q
stick of wood, which both were trying
to get possession Of, when one of them
drew his pistol and shot the other dead.
MASKS AND FACEs.-Ladies who mask
their faces and necks with enamels, en-
danger theirlhealth to no purpose. The
plaster work deceives nobody. There is
but one article known which will restore
a blemished complexion or create e1ter.
nal brilliancy and bloom where they
have never heretofore existed. and that
article is HAaAN's MAGNOLIA BALM. 1t
performs this toilet miracle by infusipg
vitality into the skin. The floral and
herbal juices OF which it is composed
greatly stimulate tho circulation in the
minute blood vessels, and brace tho net.
work OF nerves through which they pass.
Thus qaickened and strengthened, the
external covering soon acquires fresh
and healthful hue, and every trace OF
saliowness disappears. The palest cheeks
derive from the identifying baptism Of
this delightful cosmetic warmer hue,
and the arms, hands and neck blonde
lustre, which the charIatans, who pro-
fess to make ladies "benutiful forever
with their poisonous cement, can never
hope to initiate.
