Nearly every man, woman, and child in
Waco, was at the grounds during the day
yesterday, or part Of it.
Great anxiety to hear Mr.. Ilinckle's ad-
dress to-day is felt among all classes OF our
people. Let us all turn out and give him a
"huge old crowd "
There is much more fine stock at the fair
this year than last. 1t is the purpose of the
Directors TO make the Waco Fair the lead
ing one IN the State In this respect. McLen-
nan county formers are all, without exccp-
ton, nearly improving their stock,
To-day will be a field day at the fair The
programme is an attractive one. Consult 1t
In another column.
Our reports of the doings at the fair, are
very highly spoken OF by the officers, las well
as by all visitors. The sales of the Daily
EXAMINER are very large.

In the contest for the best jack three years
old aud over, the Judges were very undecid-
ed at ilrst as to whom the premium should
be awarded. Hodge Raybun's jack "held
the place" in the opinion of the crowd, and
most all of them were disappointed when the
"blue" was placed on the one which OPP
posed him. Mr.. Rayburn has good jack
and rs he has no need Of such an animal Just
now, will sell him, Mi, Rayburn lives ON
the IIardwick place, fifteen miles above
Waco, and can be found there any time.
WIN be in Waco until Saturday,

The streets were nearly desested yesterda.
after the opening, and until the closing o
the fair. Everybody who could get ava,
went out, and all are greatly pleased.
Magale & Burnhan are rather driving
things. This is harvest season TO them
and they are busy with 1t. That handsome
Englishman, Tommy Duggleby, is a "stun
ner" In the business.
Eleven immigrant wagons in one train OF
the square, yesterday. And they say there
are more behind. In fact, the road all the
way through to the Nation, 10 crowded by
immigrants.
Three freedmen with hundred and six
dollars and eight cents, to be divided among
them, made scene In the National bank
yesterday. II was an easy task for the
good looking teller to tel them what each
was entitled to, but to make them see H. was
the trouble. Finally, u spruce young mid
dleman in the shape Of a lawyer "sot' the
matter straight by few skillful passes at
the pile. How much of the funds passed
away from the blessed darkies,, will proba-
bly never be known.
Those singularly beautiful hats and bon
netts at Ludecus' got us into serious
scrape, and the "old oman" laughs at us
"tii yit" but 1t is no laughing matter, we
eau assure our friends, TO go home often to
the bosom OF an affectionate family without
one
The many warm personal friends Of DR..
Wallace, were pleased 10 meet him on the
sidewalk yesterday. As the head OF the
insane legions Of the State, he is rather a
square looking fellow,to be sure.
A man or woman either, would, be hard to
please, II they failed TO find amusement in
Waco this week. The Comedy Company, at
Odd Fellows, Hall. The Amateurs at Sam
Houston Hall. The Fair. The public sup
pers, rides, drives, balls, parties and the
like. Waco offers good general bill, and
thus far the audience seem pleased.
Nobody sympathizes with poor printer.
When fairs, balls, parties, or other amuse-
ments are up, instead Of his participating,
he is called upon to do more hard work then
than at any other time, and gets more scold-
ing and abuse for mistakes, or sbortcom-
ings, than at any other time. We want a
provision In the new Constitution correct
ing this abuse.

JUDGE BOND, Of the United States
circuit court for northern Virginia, on
saturday last Issued an order appointing
Henry Tyson, Of the city Of Baltimore,
receiver Of the tolls, income, fIanchises,
and all the property Of the Chesapeake
and Ohio railroad company, with the
usual powers. Mr.. Tyson Immediately
execut d bond in the penalty Of fifty
thousand dollars, and was formally
placed in possession OF the road by Dep
uty United States Marshal William E
Nye. The LynchbuTg Republican lays
this course meets with great deal OF
Indignation in Richmond, because the
appointment Of gar tlsman from the
CITY OF Baltimore as receiver is distaste-
fuI TO the people Of Richmond, since the
Chesapeake and Ohio railroad is one OF
the principal feeders of tlat city, and
Baltimore has long sought to control
the business Of that road. Baltimore
has great deal OF sympathy for Vir.
GINA, Of course; but, then, it has more
for itself. SeIf-interest overiaps section

WE print this morning a dispatch to
the New York Tribune from Senator
James L. Alcurn, Of Mississippi, ex-
pIauatory Of the recent troubles at Friars
Point, and with it an editorial from the
Tribune and the report Of an interview
by Washington reporter with Elk Sen
a'or Peas These together form body
of mater that cannot fail to have 8
cru-hiug effecl against Amgs with the
people Of Mississippi, the negroes espe-
ci lily Th- Tribune is a weli-known
advocate Of VIVA his come TO be regard
ed a. Liberal Republicauism, and has
always been an ardent, steady, and con-
sistent friend of the negro, and Senator
Alcorn and Ex-senator Pesss are known
and trusted as among the most respon-
sible and reliable OF the white Regubii-
can leaders il Mississippi. Whatever,
Therefore, emsnstes from them, or from
the Tribune, touching the internal mis-
management Of the r publican party Of
that State, must tie accepted as cumir &
with a weight of authority beyond
which it is not necessary to go for vel
fication eft their statements. What they
say plsi e. Ames in infinitely q worse
position than he ha yet occupied, sin ce
they assert that instead OF seeking to
maiUtain the pub ic PEA e, as he is
sworn to d g, tie Is and has been doiI e
a he Can and couli 10 bring ABOUT a
war Of races, destl uctIve alike OF life
and pr perty aud the future Of great
State He stan 5, therrfJre, CT arged
with PERU y, with being pubic enemy,
Of his high Office TO induce blOOdshed,
riot add robbery, and all for the selfish
purpose of holding to his present politi-
cal leadership, and making q way for
himself into the United States senate.
These are grave charges, charges that
should be pressed home upon him until
he is compelled to retire from an Office
he has disgraced, and which ne has used
for the basest party purposes. The last
OF the carpetbsg governors, he is IN
questionshly the worst, and it should be
the duty o. every voter in Mississippi,
black IS well as white, to vote only for
such candidates for the next legislature
as are pledged to bring him to justice.
He ought rot to be allowed to escape,
and should Re punished to the utmost
extent Of the law.
