The Tobacco Fair.

On next Thursday and Friday,
July Sd and 4th, the tobacco fair of
the Grange Warehouse will take
place. One thousand dollars in gold
will be awarded in premiums. We
learn that there is about two hum
bred hogsheads already reported for
the fair and others will probably be
reported before that time. Mr..
Herndon, Supt., has secured eXcur-
sion rates on the L. & n. & G. S.
railroad, good from the I'd to the
5th. We expect to see quite num-
Der of planters in attendance and
hope they will get good price for
their tobacco.

ry he viii constantly be treading on
the same ground with the professor
of ancient languages in discussing
the causes of advance in liberty or
decline in the direction of despotism
or anarchy and generally the causes
of the prosperity and adversely of
nations, he will be trenching On the
departments of the philosophy of
government and political economy;
and, moreover, Oriental history will
occupy common ground with an
other branch of his own depart
nlent, that of biblical exposi-
ton. All this, Prof. Shearer thinks,
(and we agree with him) to be an
advantage rather than otherwise, as
there is nothing so stimulating to
independent thought as to hear the
same subject taught by independ-
ent minds approaching it from diff
ferent points of view.
We must again express our graft
fication at this proposed extension
of academical study iii is carried
out thoroughly (and we know no
man more capable of doing so than
DIR. Shearer) it will place the S.-W.
p. University alone among the col
leges we are acquainted with in this
point of view, and the need of such
an improvement is every day made
more and more apparent to us. 1t
has been our misfortune of late to
be constrained to read a great deal
of Congressional defamation, and
in doing so we are more and more
impressed with the astounding ig-
norance of the average Congress-
man of all topics allied to History,
Political Philosophy and Political
Economy, and the prevalence OF
sciolism and empiricism in our Leg
islation is the the inevitable conse-
quence; political quaekery and leg
islative tinkering must result from
such Ignorance as we are complain
ing of, and SO far our highest insti-
tutiOns of academic discipline have
done nothing to remedy the evil ;
let GAINESVILLE set the example, as
she promises to do, and she will
reap an ample reward, not only in
increase of patronage, but in the
higher need of a body of intelligent
/ and thoughtful alumni, who can
not but take a high position among
men of influence in the nation.

THE sale of the property left by
the late A. 3. Harrison took place
Monday, last, the 23rd inst. The
mansion was sold to Mr.. James
Smith, of the Grange warehouse,
for 5000: 81 shares in the Port
Royal and GAINESVILLE turnpike
(par value $3.50 were sold for S. 25
a share. The corner lots on Frank
lin and Second were then put up /;
this was well known as the Frank
lin Hall property, the two lots to-
gether fronted 80 feet on Franklin
street, running back 100 feet on
Second street, the first, which was
the corner lot, was put up at $50 a
foot, and sold to Mr.. Gus Harrison
at $50; the second lot started at $50
per foot, was sold to the same gen
tleman at So per foot. The two
lots, therefore, brought in all S4,724.
The house is considered to have sold
well, considering the present de-
pressed state of the markets for real
property. The lots on Franklin
went below their value.

On the evening of July Sd, the
New Providence amateurs will give
an entertainment, dramatic and mu-
steal, at Academy Hall, in this city.
This exhibition will combine the
best features of the two interesting
concerts which they gave in New
Providence recently. The two at
tractive dramas, Sci on PdrIe Fran
c0iS," and "The Little Treasure"
will constitute the main part of the
entertainment, but there will be al
so plenty of fine music, both instru-
mental and vocal. Although the
histrionic talent of New Providence
is in itself sufficient to secure for
them crowded house, yet they
will be assisted by Messrs. r. N.
Rhodes and J. C. Mattill, of our
city, who will contribute largely to
the humorous part of the evenings
exercises. He must needs be mourn
full from whom the performances of
"Capt. Walter Maydenblush" and
"Mr. Spriggins' would fail to ex-
tort smile.
But after all, it were sufficient to
say in praise OF this entertainment,
that it will be under the charge of
Miss Nj. e. Ford, well known to
those who have attended the former
concerts as a lady of high talent as
well as cultivated taste in such mat
tiers.
Let us all turn out and give them
the support which they deserve.
You will be amply repaid. for the
small admittance fee of so cents.
The proceeds will be turned over in
to the hands of the Women's Aid
Society of the New Providence NJ.
E. Church, who will use it to the
best advantage.
Tickets for sale at all the Drug
Stores.

AN alarm of fire Thursday morn
ing was caused by the burning of a
stable at Maj. Fowlkes's, just in the
rear of Hardin's carriage factory.
The Fire Department turned out
promptly, but owing to the start of
the fire were unable to save the
building; they however prevented
any further spread of the devouring
element. Inc hTS IS supposed to
be accidental. Loss about $50.
Many OF our citizens were anxious
to see the fire plugs tried, bat as the
city has not received them from the
Water Works Co. they were not
used.
