MEMPHIS.
The Yellow Fever.

MEMPHIS. September l6.-Ths trains
to-day leaving the city are crowded ful'
ly as much as those Of yesterday, but
the panic has, to great extent, died
out. From one o'clock yesterday az
ternoou to the the same time to-day, the
total number OF deaths from all causes,
was eighteen. and o! that number
twelve died from yellow fever. The
disease has not spread to any great eI-
tent yet except where the sick have
been taken from one part OF the city
to another. 1t is expected that the
cold nights will effectually stop the
spread of the fever, although it hastens
the death OF those afflicted. 1t is 30 far

parallel with the river.

Editors OF the Register:
DEAR SIRs:-We are making grand
preparation for the Second Annual
Fair of the West Virginia State Agri-
cultural Society, which commences on
the 30th OF September and continues
Eve days. Aspacious ampihtheatre
one hundred and fifty feet long, over
looking the track, is nearly completed,
which, when done, will seat from one
thousand to fifteen hundred people
comfortably. The exhibition hall ia
being greatly enlarged, and we think
when finished it will furnish ample
facilities for all exhibitors. The track
has been cleaned off and put in fue
order for training. 1t is in almost
constant use by trainers practic-
ing for the races. There are several
"fast horses" permanently located on
the grounds in the hands OF an exper-
fenced trainer who drives them around
that track just about as fast as an Eek
press train goes down an incline"
There are wells being sunk to supply
the people with water, the want OF
which was sadly felt last year. The
enterprising gentlemen who comprise
the Board Of Directors. are doing every
thing in their power to make it a uni
versal success, and the best thing OF the
sort that was ever held in the State,
and we think they are likely TO succeed,
from the encouraging report we hear
from all parts OF the State of stock be-
ing prepared to bring 10 the exhibition.
We hope the REGISTER will be repre-
sented with some Of its premium stock
and machinery. Our own county will
doubtless be largely represented. The
farmers are now in the midst of seed
ing time, but by the first of October
they will be pretty well done, and have
leisure 10 bring in their grain and stock,
and show the people that they are not
80 far behind in the way ofraisiug "fins
stock" as it is generally supposed.
Hoping you will extend US helping
hand, l remain, Yours &c,
ADDISON.

about forty-five miles west and brought

OF the Manitoba prisoners will be
onlv formal, and that four OF them
will plead guilty, asking mercy on the
ground of ignorance Of the law; that
nominal sentence Of a few days i'm .
prisonment will be given and that they

GOAT IsLAND-The Central Pacific Rail
road Company received rebuff at the hands
Of the House of Representatives, recently, in
their efforts to grab Goat Island for depot pur.
poses. The bill in the interests of that GONNA.
ny passed the House at the last session of Con.
gress, and is low pending in the Senate, where
it was referred to the Committee on Military
affairs. In appears to have been smnggled
through the House in some way, not one mem.
Der out OF ten understanding the facts of the
case, or the merits OF the controversy between
the city of San Francisco and the railroad mo
nopoly. Senators Stewart ard Nye, of Neya
do, and Senator-elect, Sargent of California
who appear to be extra jealous in their en-
beavers to serve the railroad company. have
been untiring in their efforts to secure the pas
sage of the bill ceding Goat Island, or Dor.
ton OF it, to Stanford g. Co.. but they find
most determined enemies to their swindlinp
scheme IN the persons of Cole and Casserly,
who, faithfully representing their constituents.
are leaving no stone unturned in their efforts
70 defeat the Ubiquitous measure. Sargent. by
MS frantic efforts in the House 10 defeat the
Roberts resolution, and his promptness in en-.
deavoring, at all times, to further the ends and
advance the interests of Stanford e. Co has
demonstrated conclusively to every upureiu
diced mind that he is the plant tool and paid
agent of the Central Pacific Company On
February Sd vote, however, was reached on
the resolution offered by Hon. w. r. Roberts
which declares that it is neither wise nor expe.
dent for the public interests that any part Of
Goat Island should be ceded for railroad pur.
poses, and the resolution was adopted BY q
vote of 1O2 to II. The Senate, ia view Of
this decided expression of opinion on the part
OF the House, should promptly postpone the
bill indefinitely; but SO many corrupt measures
have been passed by that body, it is greatly to
De feared that the corruption fund of the Cen.
trai Pacific Company will prove a powerful
agent In engineering successfully the passage
OF the Goat Island swindIe. There are too
many Pomeroys, Caldwells and Pattersons in
the Senate to hope for the defeat of any bills
OF robbery in the interests of railroad CORPORA.
tions.
