FOREIGN NEWS.

LONDON, October 7.-The Times,
in it's financial article, says: Those
who shipped gold to America by
cable yesterday discounted their
bills at Il per cent. The pressure of
loanable capital on open market
may possibly depress the rates still
further. Unless, therefore, the
Bank of England absorbs some of
the floating supply, yesterdays rise
in the rate Of discount will have lit
tie more practical effect than to in
crease the difficulty of get
ting gold from the continent
by forcing up the value of money
there. The Bank Of Holland has
raised its rate of discount one-ha' f
of one per cent. It remains to be
seen whether the Bank of France
can continue the policy it has pur-
sued during the last two years and
allow it's gold reserve to be further
diminished. Any artificial case thus
created will probably lead to more
serious stringency in the East, when
the bank will have no chance but to
raise it's rate. So r
The Manchester Guardian, in its
commercial article this morning, says
"There is little more activity, and IL
departments full prices are realized
in some cases, but more frequently
sellers are influenced by the decline
! in cotton and advance in hank ~ es
and are giving way slightly. The
finer goods, made from Egyptian cot

WAsHrNeroN,, October s.6..Treas
urer Gilfillanx to-day received a
letter from the president Of Bank
in South Carolina stating that the
people of that State would not take
silver certificates as current money,
and asking if he could pay them
out on checks of the United States
disbursing officers. The Treasurer
replied that the standard silver
dollar, which is full legal tender,
could be offered, and that people
who preferred certificates could
take them instead; saying that in
his experience he found that the

WASHINGTON, D. c., October T.
In obedience to writ of habeas

Capt. Fl. w. Howgate was brought
this morning before the Criminal
Court, and on representations Of the
counsel for the accused, Judge Cox
reduced the bail from $4,000,
which had been fixed BY Commits
sioner Bnndy, to $4,000: The de-
fendant's counsel, however, stating
that it would be impossible for their
client to secure that amount of bail.
,, Judge Cox stated he would take the
matter under advisement, and de-
termine the amount definitely this
afternoon or tomorrow.

There are 10000 holders of these

out is about $3,1G0,000.
It is now stated that the appro
priation for the military display at
the Yorktown celebration is ex-
hausted, and that there will be- O de>
felt of about $4,000, which Congress
will be asked to make good. The

Prominent Treasury officials main
tain that the statements to that
effect are without the slightest foun
dation. They contend, moreover.
that such action would not relieve
the stingency Of the money market
Inasmuch as an outlay from the

Sale Of the South Carolina Rail
Railroad Confirmed.

CHARLESTON, S c., October 6.-In
the United States Circuit Court to-
day exceptions to the confirmation of
the sale of the South Carolina
Railroad in July last were sub
mitted, ON behalf of ]. III.
'. Cockcroft, of Connecticut,
holder of the non>mortgage bonds of
the company, who claims that he and
the ether creditors were discrimi-
mated against by the purchasing
committee, who, for another set of
creditors, bought the road, and that
the effect of the action of the COM
mittee was to chill the bidding and
cause the road to sell at less than it's
value.
An affidavit was submitted showing
that George Parsons, of New York,
who helda judgment against the road,
had directed his agent in Charleston,
to bid $6,000,000 for the road if the
judgment was not paid, and that the
judgment was then arranged for by
the representative of the purchasing
committee. Counter affidavits were
submitted, and after hearing the
argument of counsel for Cockcreft,
Judge Bond announced that he
would tomorrow sign an order con-
firming the sale of the road.

The Tobacco Crop Incalculably
Damaged by the Frost.

RICHMOND, Va, October Special
telegrams to the Dispatch report that
the sudden and severe frost of
Wednesday night was very general
throughout the State, and did
incalculable damage, particularly
to the tobacco crops. The re~
ports, which cover almost the entire
tobacco section of the State, are very
distressing, aud show that at least
one-half of the standing crop has
been destroyed, and in some counties
1t ls even worse. But little of the
crop had been cut and housed. One
1armer is reported as having lost
$4,000 plants, while the joint loss of
two others is estimated at what
would fill sixty barns. The frost ex-
tended into North Carolina, reports
from which State also show damage
to crops.

THE sWEETwATER FAIR,
The Last Day of the Exhibition.
Awarding and Delivering Premiums.
Special to the Chronicle.


Awarding and Delivering Premiums.
Special to the Chronicle.
SwEETwATER, TENN, October z, 1881.
The weather to-day was fine, and the
attendance at the fair was accordingly good.
This morning match horses and mules were
exhibited in the ring and at the same time
there was sale of stock in another part the
grounds, at which some good animals were
disposed of.
At about II o'clock a comic parade, in
front of the grand stand, was in order.
This was carried on by young men on
horseback, masked and fantastically
dressed, who held a tournament after the
parade and afforded much amusement to
the spectators.
After recess for dinner, the association
announced that the premiums would be de.
ivered at the exhibition building The
premiums were mostly paid in silver plate,
and large number of beautiful and useful
articles were delivered to the successful
competitors. 1t would take too much space
to mention all of these, and we win not
therefore, go into details. Among others
we noticed that Gossett, Ford 4 Bro. were
awarded the first premium for best display
of ladies', misses and children's shoes
Mrs. Wallace, of this place
received premiums for severa
works of art and fancy work
which had been subjects of much praise
during the fair. The ladies' department
contained many other beautiful articles
which are also worthy of mention, and which
reflect much credit On the skill, intelligence
and good taste of the ladies of this section
A beautiful upright piano and organ, ex
hibited by w. F. Cummins, of Knoxville
was the delight of the ladies, and some fine
sewing machines pleased the more prach
cally inclined There were iellies, jams enc
canned fruits in abundance, and bed quilts
enough to rob winter nights of half thei1
terrors. Monroe people certainly intend te
have warm and well covered beds
If we were not afraid, however, OF being
thought sentimental, we would say that the
most beautiful and interesting objects to bt
seen on the ground, were the many beeuti
full ladies themselves, of whom Sweetwatel
and vicinity have rather more than thei
share. Grace, of the Democrat, IVES 81
much impressed with this fact that h,
found it difficult to get out his paper at all
while Bean, of the Tribune, wore per
petual smile.
At about quarter past two p'clocl
! the premiums had all been awarded, an,
| the bell rang for the race.
| The first premium contended for wa
: fifty dollars in cash and fifty dollars in plat
for the fastest trotter in harness, one mil
and repeat, best three in five. Two horse
were entered, viz: Andy Johnson, owne
by J. r. Jones, and Frank Morgan, owne
by r. S. Wilson. In the first race, And
johnson distanced Frank Morgan; time
$40. Accordingly, Frank Morgan wa
ruled off and Andy trotted against time
making $40. He was not required to trc

JONEsBOKO FAIR.
An Immense Attendance the Last Da

n =
The Fair a Grand Success in Every Way.
Special to the Chronicle.
JoNEsBoRo, Tenn, October 7th.
The Washington County Fair, opened out
this morning with more than fiattering
prospects. Long before daylight, vehicles
were running to and from the grounds, and
by O'Clock the streets of Jonesboro were
perfectly thronged with people from all
sections. 1t was estimated by the gate
keepers, that $500 persons were on the
grounds. Washington County can boast of
the most successful fair in upper East Ten
nessee. She has always stood as the ban-
ner county of this State, in the way OF
fairs, and has certainly sustained her repu-
tation in this, her tenth annual exhibition.
We certainly congratulate the officers and
managers of the fair, for such success
full exhibition, for to them is due In great
measure all praise for such successful ex-
hibition Your reporter availed himself of
the first opportunity to go out to the
grounds, and there he found all classes of
humanity, both the rich and poor, mixing
| and co-mixing, so that it was almost i'm
possible to get through the great mass of
people. The exhibition of harness horses
was certainly a grand thing 1t showed
| that old Washington County was
| alive on the stock question. Some little
excitement was caused by two ties in a trot-
| ting race, which was fairly won by Vr-
ginia horse.
Your reporter was on the grounds early
and late. Good order prevailed throughout
inside of the grounds. It would be
impossible for me to telegraph you anything
in regard to the awarding of premiums,
either in stock, agricultural, or household,
Or other departments. Suffice to say that in
our opinion, deserving once carried off the
| banners.
Your reporter wishes to return many
thanks for the favors and courtesies ex-
tended him by both the managers of the
fair and the citizens of Jonesboro.
| In the contest, two best in three, trotting,
William Gillespie won, against N. B. Bach
man and Charles Bowman, of Sullivan
| County, and Dickson, Of Greene.
! Miss Lizzie Deaderick, of Washington
| County, was awarded the five dollar premium
for the most graceful rider. There were
! ten contestants.
The quarter and half mile dashes were
won by M. Gray, of Sullivan.
| The twenty-five dollar premium for the
best performer on the piano at the court
house last night was awarded to Miss King
of Bristol.
Taken, all in all, the fair was grand sue
cess, both financially and otherwise.
