A PRIVATE letter from prominent

'Peace and quiet and rest are things
we know nothing of-our people live

apprehension of danger; whole neigh.
bnrhoods--entire communities - in
Chester and Fairfield, some ten days
ago, were underline necessity of stand
ing guard over their homes, and for
the protection of their wives and
daughters against the threatened viO-
lence of the negroes. A widespread
alarm and Il general feeling of uneas-
mess is common to-day throughout
many localities in this state, and moth
ing but the extreme patience and long
suffering endurance of the white peO-
pie under wrongs and provOcations,
such as few people are called upon to
bear, have prevented a resort to arms
and bloodshed."

A CORRESPONDENT of the Houston
Telegraph, writing from Waxahachie,
gives the following account of the clos
ing day of the Ellis county fair:
The day and the fair concluded with
equestrian ring for ladies. This was
decidedly the most attractive feature
of the fair. Fourteen young ladies,
with their escorts, entered the ring, all
of them well mounted, and all of them
good horsewomen. Almost half an
hour was consumed by the judges in
making their decision.
The first premium was awarded to
Miss Alti Prince, and the second pre-
MUM to Miss Ida Haynes.
Ellis county may justly be proud of
her fair and the manner in which it
has been conducted this year. The
premium list was very liberal. All are
To- he paid in money.
