Dear sirs:-I purchased, a short time since,
one of your "McCormick Harvesters," and
believed, at the time Of purchase, that it po-
sessed advantages over any other Reaper in
point of economy. I have ncw given it a fair
trial; have cut my barley and considerable
wheat, and both arc rs heavy as I ever Saw,
and am still using it-and it has fully come
up to my expectations. I an using only two
native Texas horses on the Machine, and they
pull it readily, Myself and two young men
or boys, do the work Of driving and binding,
and with the additional help Of y young lady,
in either driving or shocking, we clean the
field as we go; SO that I do ali the work wit Ii
my Own family of four, in harvesting, without
the trouble ard expense of bring hands.
The Machine does its work well; au.i III
point Of economy I consiler it superior to any
other Machine. But I insist on it, that it is
wrongly namcd-it should tic called the wom-
ans f:iccI; for, instead Of having q field full
OF hands FOX my wife to cooli for, land Inc to
pay, we clean the field with my own family If

exhibited enough of art to attract and con.
found the critic; enough of variety to
charm the curious and enough Of the
grotesque to please the really whimsical
and extravagant. 1t was the most SYM
metrically irregular non-descript process
sion ever presented to the gaze of a holi-
day assembly, and the State is challenged
to produce its equal. 1t was victuals to
the hungry, drink to the thirsty, rest to
the weary. 1t was the tale Of the "Arabi-
an Knights" dramatized under the d.
rection of Jimmy Noble and Paradise
Lost" rehearsed by Tom Dugan and the
other original CHARACTERISTIC blind Poet

seen again" While the Ku Klux were
on parade a Mammoth Balloon was ill.,
flated and sent up from the Public Square.
1t shot upward as gracefully a. a sky
rocket and having reached an altitude of
nearly a mile, it was carried off by the
breeze IN a northeasterly direction, and
when last seen appeared to be no larger
than the head of an infant. 1t was a beau
tiful sight, and for the time being, the TO-
Gus of all eyes. How long it continued
to float in the upper deep, and at what
point it descended to earth again, We win
not rccord-wc don't know. After
the street attractions had been enjoyed
the multitude bent their steps toward the
Fair Grounds again, to witness the races,
of which we shall speak elsewhere. The
day closed beautiful:y-the sun going
down in gold and crimson leaving night
to hang her curtain before the scene. The
little boys and girls were soon in bed
their activities quoted in slumber, and
their tired limbs renewing strength for
the sports of the morrow. Some of the
older people went to the Opera, where the
|excitemeat and ennui Of the day were dis.

and historic-though the crowd that
sought the licing survivor Of the battle
We're disappointed.
Memorial Hall was crowded so densely
that but a small proportion of the visitors
could see the interesting relics of the
battle that were there displayed.
The Lexington press committee exerted
itself to the utmost to provide for the wants
of the newspaper men, and exhibited an
amount of patience which must have been
larger in the morning than at night. Mr..
Witherell. of this committee. was especial

The lifcless body Of a negro woman was

The Emma Mine.

Mr.. Trenor w. Park has filed his an
swer in the famous Emma Mine suit in
New Yo'k. 1t is in no sense different
from his previously published accounts OF
the negotiations whereby he disposed of
the property to an English company. He
denies all fraud and all misrepresentation,
denies explicitly that Prof Sillman was
promised by him or his associates any con-
tingent fee, depending upon his report, and
claims that he gave the English stockholders
all the knowledge he possessed himself, and
that in all respects they went into it with
their eyes open,'and if disappointed, twas
their misfortune and not his fault. He
further allelges that he believes that a
majority of the stock is at present owned
by persons who bought it after it had fall
en- in the market to Il merely nominal
price and that they, and not the original
owners, are the promoters Of the litiga-
ton. lie says that the mine at the very
worst Is worth more than its cost to these
men.
Mr.. Parks statement seems on its face
entirely fair, and we believe he will be
able to make good his sworn statement in
\ court of justice. 1t is probably true
that he did drive 4 sharp and profitable
bargain with our English cousins, and
that he used some Of the tricks known to
the trade. in dispo>ing of his mining prop
erty to spectators who thought them
selves as shrewd rs the.kcenest operator, is
perhaps legitimately to be inferred.
Whether he went outside the rule in this
matter the court must decide. If Mr.
Park did defraud the British spectators
by any unfair means. it was very naughty
in him. If he only got the better of them
by his snartne>s and Yankee shrcwdness,
we feel just now, warmed up us We are
by the accounts of the Concord and Lex
ington Centennial, to aver that he served
them right. They are only BlitShers any
way, and once undertook to steal our pow
der and ball, and pour their taxed tea
down our Threats. We never felt very sad
to think that Butler might possibly have
pocketed silver spoon or two, belonging
to those New Orleans secesSonistS. 1t
was only an indirect way of levying on the
enemy, which is allowable. we beleve,as a
military necessity. If Park titir1y got the
better Of those English stock jobberS, in Il
lawful manner. we shall not throw Il
great many stones at that gentleman, I'M
til our patriotism, awakened by memories
OF - and '76, gets cooled down.
