Our second annual Fair since the war ex
ceedied all expectation in the number of its Wis
itors to-day. To make n cautious, careful state
ment, the number of persons on the gronud at
one time should not be placed at less than
two thousand. Mr.. @. f. Bates of Cleveland,
delivered an address at IL clock We did not
have the pleasure of hearing it there being too
many land buyers in town. but hear it highly
commended, and everywhere received.
The Cleveland silver cornet and string bands
furnished music for the crowd all the day-not
to mention the numerous little fddlers from It.

becond and Third Days.
The interest in thGFair seems to be increasing
with the days.
On the second day we found many items of
interest that were not plainly visible on the frst
and the gathering of the people in greater num-
Der than the previous day was an evidence that
m 9 more interest was taken than on the first
day. And rs we walked over the grounds look
ing at the various objects Of interest, we thought
OF the good that might be accomplished by such
associations in inspiringifarmers and mechanics
IN the real development of the country.
There surely 10 much undeveloped wealth in
these grand old hills and valleys that might be
not only utilized but made profitable Yet n
close observer could see that teo little attention
mas been given TO home industry. We must
however notice some
WOODEN PUMPS
manufactured by w. w. Wood of this place
These pumps are said to be very good, and ms
they are the result of home labor we wish 10
BRING them into especial notice. There are also
some very fine
WAGONS, CARRIAGES, &C,
from the shops of our enterprising citizen j. II
Reynolds, His work is always of the best
kind and hardly need notice. here rs his es-
adjustment is so well known through East Ten
nessee
We noticed also some plows from our neigh
boring town, Charleston, made by Messrs. Free
man IL Wyatt These are very good.
Yesterday being the third day we noticed the
trlal OF some plows. Those on exhibition by
ANuplSi u SuuttuHOOSd, seeuleu 10 excite
the greatest interest, and from the manner in
which these plows turned up the soil it was very
easy to see that they are of a very superior
kind. There are several improvements at
tached that will recommend them at once
Upon one there is wheel that cuts all weeds
and rubbish as the furrow is turned under.
Mr.. Ruble had also some very fine chickens
on exhibition, and pair of African geese that
excited considerable interest
The display of needle work and fancy articles
is pretty good, though not quite equal to last
years showing.
Some paintings by Miss Legg, of this place,
attract notice.
1t is to be hoped that next year greater attrac-
tions will be given TO all branches of industry
and art, and less TO horse racing. We are sor-
ry that this is too much the feature of the fair

TENNE SSEE POLITICS.
The Johnson.Ch eatham Fight.

The Chattanooga Times says:
We learn from a private letter that Rhea
county is all right for the straight Demo-
cratic ticket, Johnson will not get over 20
votes in the county.
H. NJ. Doak, of the GAINESVILLE Tobacco
Leaf avows the authorship of pamphlet
entitled "Brigadier General Andrew John
son." and published by authority of the
Democratic State Executive Committee.
A prominent Tennessee gentleman"
writes from Knoxville to a friend in Mem
,phis Harris and Forrest and Dunning-
ton will rally many Republicans to John
son. while Cheatham will get the little flag
end of what is left of the defunct secession
faction of that section, not that they love
Cheatham, but through their deadly hate
of A. j."
The Union and american says:
We have been asked how many papers
in the State support Cheatham, and how
many Johnson. According to the best es-
innate we can now make, there are forty
two Democratic papers supporting General
Cheatham, and seven Democratic papers
supporting Mr.. Johnson. In addition Mr..
johnson has the support in this race
against Democratic organization of the
Banner and the AUdlonche.
FROM OLD LINCOLN
We were shown a letter from Lincoln
county, yesterday, which stated that John
son ha gained decided strength in his ia
vorite county, by the speech he made in
Fayetteville recently He was interrupt
ed, but rose superior to the storm of hur-
Tahs for Cheatham, and when he got the
people TO listening TO his sound, good sense
EXPLANATIONS indorsing what he said were
heard on all hands. Our information is
that the thinking people of Lincoln will
render a. j. a majority worth considering
on election day. The latter says that Gen
eral Cheatham read his little composition

WHAT THE PRESS SAY.
Exit Greeley-Forney Rebukes the CRY of
Fraud.


The New York Herald says:
The elections yesterday ave.resulted in
a sweeping Republican victory; a victory
that settles the Presidential contest. and
proves beyond doubt that the attempt 10
hand over the Federal government to n
new party, composed of Democrats and
dissatisfied Republicans, has proved a
complete failure. But il Is enough
for us that the campaign is virtually over,
ana that the people for reasons of their
own have declared in advance as distinctly
as they can that they would rather trust
President Grant with another four years
OF authority than try the experiment of
four years of President Greeley, with n
mixed party of old Democrats and new
Liberals ut his back.
No one opposed .Hartranft more vigor.
ously in Pennsylvania than Forney. No
one knows more about election frauds than
Forney. His Press heads the returns of
the elections, Greeley's Doom Sealed. -
and says: at would be folly to allege
that Hartranft's majority is the offspring
of fraud. We believe it to be a Legitimate
majority. General Grant pulled the ticket
through. In any ordinary contest the tick =
ct would have been beaten out of sight :;
but his name and the fear that defeat
would damage him in November rallied
thousands to his support. He has always
been stronger than his party. Having
freely challenged such acts of his admins
istration as we believed deserved chal-
lenge, we shall do what becomes us to
support his retention as President"
The Cincinnati Commercial says:
Taking yesterdays elections altogether
the conclusion is forced that the luck of
General Grant, in politics as in war, is
likely to be confirmed by his reelection to
the Presidency. The Liberal and Demo-
cratic organization is not so compact that
it can withstand the shock of repeated de-
feats.
