What n Fairfield Man Saw and Heard Dur
ing n Little Visit to the state Capital.
COLUMBIA, S. e., November 12.-
Your correspondent, like some other
citizens of Fairfield, having little
spare time and some business matters
to attend to, visited Columbia on
"Wednesday of Fair week and re-
manned in the city till Friday night,
and during that time saw tho State
Agricultural Fair, which, in his opin-
ion, was a greater success than has
been for some years past. This is ow-
ing, in great measure, to the in
creased interest taken by farmers gen
orally in procuring q higher grade of
stock than those that formerly were
exhibited Mt cattle shows. There were
several animals on exhibition that far
surpassed anything Of tho kind that
had been shown for many years past,
and, in my opinion, this Is proof posi-
tive that most Of our extensive farm
.crs arc taking much moro interest in
in this particular than formerly. Tho
Fairfield planters, as they generally do,
made q splendid show Of stock gcncr-
nlly. Mr.. James D. Turner and Mr..
ID. r. Flcnniken had on exhibition
some Of the finest Jersey cattle have
evor seen, or perhaps many of your
readers have seen. These gentlemen
deserve great credit for tho interest
they are taking in introducing supc-
rior breed of cattle. The Jersey can't
be beat. The city was illuminated on
Thursday night, and grand torch
light procession. was given. .Colum-
bia turned out strong in the fire de-
partment. Labor and finance were
only thought Of during the Fair; and

enteen cents pound, through inter-
vals Of two and half hnndrcdths of n

Ericsson lnvents He'll Below Water Line.
CHICAGO, Nov. 19.-The Inter Oceans
New York special says: The Tribune will
print tomorrow fun and accurate account
of John Ercssen's new and wonderful tor
pedo boat. 1t is the most formidable engine
of death known in naval warfare. The in
ventor of the Monitor is one of the most
modest and unpretending mechanics of the
age, and is not likely to eXaggerate the merits
of his own work. He is entirely satisfied
with the result of his recent experiment with
his torpedo boat, and some of the most expe-
rienced naval officers in the United States
service do not hesitate to pronounce it all un.
equivocal success. 1t will be seen that Cap
tain Ericsson has invented three things, q
boat, gun and a projectile. The boat is
submerged like the Monitor, with all its ma
chinery below an intermediate deck of plate
iron, which is strongly ribbed and supports
inclined armor plates. 'rhe deck house,
above water, has no ports at the sides, and
can be split away without the vessel being
disabled. A heavy wooden backing gives adj
ditional protection to the wheel and electric
battery, andthe steering gear is ten feet be-
low the water line. In attacking " bows
on" and defying with her amor the rheav-
est ordnance known the tiestroyeris. practic-
ally invulnerable, and at the same time a
most terrible antagonist. Her armament
consists of single hreecli-loader Of wrought
iron, hooped with steel. and has bore of six
teen inches. This gun lies seven feet under
water and will discharge aprojectile contain
ing two hundred and fifty pounds of dynam-
lite. When the boat with its crew of ten
meniis within three or four hundred yards of
the enemy the gun is fired by electricity and
the, projectile explodes by conclusion. If
the first shot fails anothet FELLOWSHIP "a few
minutes, and the torpedo bombardment pro-
ceeds with extraordinary rapidity, no time
being wasted in charging the gun. The sub
stitution of gnnpowder for compressed air in
charging the gun greatly increases the ELL
cheney Of the armament. II may not be too
much to say that It leaves the mightiest from
ciads in the world completely ut its mercy.

ur.et the Band PLAY

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20.-The musicians at
San Antonio, Texas, have written to the war
Department protesting against the First In
fantry band being permitted to play at con-
certs, balls, ETC., thereby depriving local mu-
sicians fl ON making living by their profess
sion. The General of the Army says that
regimental bands are not maintained or paid
by the United States. Regimental COM
manders select musicians from the compa-
MES, and thus create band whose expenses
hava to be earned or paid out OF the pockets
Of the officers. In despotic Russia, and IN
Germany, soldiers are encouraged to work
for wages as tailors and shoemakers, and also
during harvest, to supplement- their small
paw. And do not see why,in free America,
soldier may not, by music, work in his
leisure time, and lay by little money to
buy neosssaries, or to save up and buy a
farm after the expiration of his term of en-
; listment. surely will not deprive our sol
diers of so simple and fair privilege. The
Secretary of War concurs.

A Staiwart Rival of Gould's Combination.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 19.-The Press this
morning says: Though Jay Gould denies
that an agreement has been entered into for
the consolidation Of the Union and Central
Pacific Railroad Companies, there is no
doubt that efforts are being made to that END
with every probability that they will prove
successful. The Northern Pacific and Atch-
ison, Topeka & Santa Fe will be vigilant
competitors of the colossal combination OF
Gould, Huntington Il Co. The rivalry OF
the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe will be felt
at every point. 1t will have two termini in
California and branch to Guaymas. Which
company will obtain grant and take the
risk of constructing branch road to the city
of Mexico is still uncertain, though such
line is within the scheme of both. While
the public interest would undoubtedly be
best served by having the Southern and Cen
trail Pacific roads rivals instead of allies, Cal
| ifornia will be secured against what would
otherwise be gigantic monopoly SO long as
the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe retains its
present independence and enterprise.

Whisky and Ammunition Traders.

Under date of the Sd inst. General Miles,
commanding District Of the Y ellOwstone, is
sued paper with reference to the captured
Indians, which should receive the endorse
ment of all law abiding citizens. He says ::
"There are now camped on the military res
ervation of Fort Keogh upward of 1000 In
dams who have heretofore been hostile. BY
the laborious and persistent effort of the
troops they have been brought under subjec-
ton, although it has cost many valuable
lives and millions ofpublic treasure. While
their treatment will be just, and every oppor-
tunity offered them for employment to better
their condition, they must be so governed as
to prevent another serious disturbance. They
have been disarmed and practically dis
mounted, and must so remain. Those re-
qliired as scouts and guides will be under the
control of judicious officers. 80 ...a e ir.. iva
/ s'The District Commander is aware that
there are some base enough to supply In
dams with liquor and ammunition, the for
mer to excite their fierce and uncomfortable
savage natures; the latter the means Of dew
astating peaceable country, and rendering
it untenable for white settlers. To this mat
ter the District Commander desires to call
the attention Of every person interested in
the property, the homes, and the welfare OF
this section of country, and to call on every
such person to assist in discovering, reporting
and bringing to just punishment such guilty
parties. - Any man who will, directly or in
directly, give or sell to Indians that which
renders them dangerous at all times, and the
material with which to destroy the lives and
property of community, is not only a law
breaker, but public enemy, and should be
SO regarded and treated. "-!asq4E gasHam /

A GALLANT OFFICER HoNoRED.

NEW YORK, Nov. 19.-The Times and
Worlds specials from Washington announce
the appointment of General Miles as Chief
Signal Officer. In the lineal rank he stands
number seven on the list of Colonies of in
fantry, being two numbers below Hazen,w
was one of the competitors for appointment
to the vacancy of Brigadier Generalship.
Miles would prefer active service to the du-
ties of Signal officer, but the increased rank
which the appointment to that service gives
induced him to seek promotion to the vacan-
cy. Should vacancy occur among the six
Brigadier Generals of the general service, it
is believed Gen. Miles would ask to be re-
LEVIED from the Signal Office and assigned to
the vacancy. Lieutenant Colonel McCook,
now serving on Gen. Sherman's staff, will
succeed Col. Miles as Colonel of the 9th in
fantry.
