Old Enrli,h soverelrns.

Horace Pettee has deposited in the
Amoskeag bank. at Manchester, N. H,
two hundred old English sovereigns
that came into his possession through
the settlement Of an estate. Not one
OF them was coined in this century,
and some Of them date back to 1745,
while several bear the imprint Of the
years Of the Revolutionary war. II
one stops to reckon the interest at six
per cent that might have accrued on
the collection since the opening of the
present century, II will be found that
II amounts to over $4,000. In all
probability they have remained idle
eishty.one years. and will now be sold

The Bismarck Fair.

The Bismarck Fair Association this
year are putting forth the strongest
effort to make a full display of the
products of the West. This association,
having everything at hand, can hardly
fail to draw together one of the finest
collections of Live Stock, Machinery
and Agricultural productions ever Of
fered west of the Mississippi river.
The Speed Ring is made attractive by
the best horses on the continent, and
purses to the amount of $4,000 make
this feature still more attractive.
The Electric Light, with which the
grounds are supplied, will enable the
exhibition to be continued during each
evening, which in itself will be an i'm
portant feature, for many of whom
visit fair prefer to avoid the hot sun,
providing strong enough light can be
had for an evening display.
The new county display building,
which is now nearly completed is a
permanent structure 154x118 feet, hav-
ing a display surface of wall and floor
of about $4,000 square feet of space.
This building has facilities for a dis
play by counties, which is needed in
this state. and we learn that large
representation will be on hand to fill
the new building on September 5.
The premiums offered for the various
displays amounts to SIS, 1000, and those
premiums are so distributed as to bring
to the exhibition the best in every de-
partment of industry in the state.
The great twenty mile race between
Miss Cricket Still, of Kansas, who is
only fifteen years old, and Miss Nellie
Archer, of Missouri, is attracting gen.
eral attention in both states; Miss Still,
"the Kansas girl" is new training on
the grounds at Bismarck. This young
lady is working to win, and having
eight of the finest thoroughbred horses
which she is training for the race
there is at least reasonable hope that
she will come out of the race victo
rious. This race will be the great
event in the history of Bismarck grove
The Balloon Ascension and Chariot
and Hurdle Races are arranged on q
grand style, and viii serve to make the
Bismarck Fair attractive to the thou
sands who viii attend.
The Trotting, Running and Pacing
Races are to be without exception thu
very finest that can be offered to thu
public. The Races are to be every
day Of the Fair, and the time of thu
visitors will be fully taken up from
the opening to the closing day.
The amount of money that has beer
expended ON the Bismarck Fail
Grounds thisyear amounts to over $50,
900. and this liberality viii be appre
ciated by the people of the entire West
Cool shade abundant, pure water, pleas
ant walks and the best accommodation
for the public. These will all be in

Mortal Combat Between a Snake and
Tarantula.
San Francisco Chronicle.
When ID. Mccarthy, Howard street
livery stable keeper, returned from Ar
iona recently, he brought among 9TH
er things, an enormous rattlesnake and
a large tarantula which he confined IN
n commodious cage. The venomous
couple seemed 10 agree. Great, there

terday morning when one Of the stable
boys conveyed 10 him the saddening in
telligence that his snake and tarantula,
10 which he had become greatly at

their inanimate bodies were all that re-
NAMED. A Chronicle reporter called
at the stable yesterday afternoon, and
was greeted by Mr.. Mccarthy, who, re-
ferring to his lost pets, said:
"Well, it's the biggest loss I've had
In a year. Come and see them" The
cage was visited and there, in the
presence Of the dead bodies of the pes
tiferous pets, Mccarthy, in mournful
tone, told how they came into his pos
session. as follows: about six weeks

The African Slave Trade Vigorous

London NewA
From time to time intelligence
reaches England from the Soudan
which leaves no room to doubt that
the African slave trade continues to be
In vigorous operation in that country.
1t is, indeed. stated that no fewer than
5000 OF 10000 negroes are still an

they are disposed of TO dealers from all

in pitched battle, in which they, re-
lying upon superior numbers. made the
first attack. Gessi Pasha inflicted a
crushing defeat upon the slave traders,
and liberated immense numbers OF
slaves. If Col. Gordon had been prop
erly supported by Tewfk Pasha, there
il reason to believe that the slave trade
would have been driven out of the
Soudan. Since his departure his old
enemies have to great extent regained
their former influence, and have sue

traffic in negroes 1t is quite true that
that traffic cannot be effectually sup.
