Postponement of the Fairs.

Its managers, seeing that the recent
floods have rendered it impossible at this
time for the people of Augusta to entertain
the great crowds that were expected to be
in attendance, very properly postponed the
Augusta international exposition to a date
when it can be made an assured success. and
when everybody who attends can be pro-
vlded with ample accommodations. 1t is
not probable that the exposition will lose in
merit by reason of the postponement. The
people OF Augusta have shown much en-
thusiasm in the enterprise, and have gone
to much expense to make it a success, and
now they will resum, work where they left
off when the freshet put temporary check
upon their exertions, and will give the peo-
pie of the country really great exhibit
tion.
Though not for the reason, the
Georgia state fair at Macon has
been postponed also, and 1t is
probable that the State Agricultural
Society will hold no fair this year. This is
to be regretted, as the prospects of a
splendid exhibition were never better than
they were few weeks ago, and as the fair,
under propitious circumstances, undoubt-
eddy would have resulted in much benefit to
the state.
1t was thought that Columbus would
reap the benefit of these postponements,
and that the Chattahoochee Valley exposi
ton, in that city, would be the great event
of October in Georgia. The Managers,
however, have decided to follow Augustus
example; and no doubt when the fair opens,
there will be on hand great exhibit of the
products and resources of the Chattahoochee
valley, and Columbus will have her hands
full in entertaining the crowds in attend

Some strange scenes are yet enacted in
Delaware. A special from Wilmington
says: THE whippings at New Castle Jail
this morning were remarkable for the num-
Der of victims, the heavy penalties, aud the
number of lashes laid on. Not for many
years have such large number been made
to hug the post in one day, There were
10 colored victims and whites. One man
got 40 lashes; 4 others, 20 lashes; 8, 10
lashes, and 3, five lashes. In all there were
225 blows struck, an average of 13 blows.
In addition to the whipping, men were
compelled to stand for an hour in the
pillory. Sugar Awful, one of the colored
men, was whipped the sixth time within
eight years He had been a thief for twelve
years, and has been before the chief justice
eight times" 1t appears that the fear of
the whipping post has not deferred the
people in Delaware from committing
crime, any more than other modes of pun
ishment in other states have deferred them.

RALEIGH, N. c., Feb. 27.-Charlotte is
the center of the gold. bearing region Of
this state. For years, in a vacant lot,
some large masses of stone have laid I'M
noticed. Saturday a poor workman
named Marsh, with a hammer in his
hand, struck one of them by mere acol-
dent. and was astonished to find 1t fi0h
in gold. The stone in appearance re-
semble the ordinary black ones quite
common in that region, and there
is nothing in their exterior ap-
pearance to indicate that they contain
gold, but when broken they are seen
to be honeycombed, and little cells
glisten with little golden crystals OF all
shapes and sizes. 1t is virgin gold, and
can be separated from the stone without
difficulty with a knife, just as kernels are
picked from nuts. The valuable stone
thus first found was taken by Marsh,
other people took the others, and the
place is now like a mining camp. II is a
remarkable find of gold, and has created
q great sensation. The further discovery
was made that gold was in the bed of a
small stream right in the city of Char
|iotte.

there commences a rather abrupt rise Of
tiers OF seats which run up back over the
gallery to a point 8 feet above the gallery
floor. These benches will seat 2, 100 per-
sons comfortably.
Commencing at the west side Of the
stage, and running west with a gradual
and easy ascent back to Fourteenth
street, che rise strikes midway between
the floor and the gallery. The risers are
Of sufficient width to place chairs. There
is n center and two side aisles. At she
head Of the center aisle on either side
are two flights of stairs which lead to the
gallery above. Commencing at a point
a short distance west OF the stage, and
running back on either side Of the nave
are twenty-five boxes Intended to be used
for ladies, distinguished guests and visit
ors to the convention. Immediately be-
meath the stage will be the telegraph Of
fees, and around the stage will be re-
porters' stands, there being ample room
for all.
The gallery is n an entire new conf
struction. 1t will extend out over the
permanent gallery a distance of forty
feet, nr al entire distance from the wall,
at which point it will be raised eight feet,
a distance of sixty-feur feet to the front.

a four-story brick structure,
containing the ticket Offices of the Mich
igan Central railroad. The upper floors
were occupied by tenants, who all had
narrow escapes. Half an hour after the
fire was discovered the two upper floors
OF the Curtis building fell, and five min
utes later the side wall went down,
crashing through the frame building on
the west. The Vanderbilt building also
crumbled into ruins. The wind drove
the flames into q solid sheet across the
street to the buildings on the north side.
On that side were Washington block oc-
cupied by the Express, and Matthews &

building, adjoining on the east,

Rules Of Procedure.

LONDON, Feb. 27.-The new rules OF
procedure are of vastly more Significance
than their collective title implies, the
change made by their enforcement affect.
ing not only the members of the house,
but the whole social fabric sf aristocratic
London. The rule ~lengthening the sit
tings at both ends involve the overthrow,
for the present, at least, of many of the
traditional laws of society with regard to
lunohes, dinners, teas, ETC., and conse.
qusntly the adoption Of new rales of pro-
cedure In other than parliamentary cir
cles. The care with which Mr.. Smith
obtained the assent of the house to the
procedure rules was due In a great meas
ure to the cooperation of Mr.. Gladstone,
but the theory that they will prevent OBJ,
struction is nntenable. The Obse yer, in
discussing the effect of the rules, admits
that they are inadequate to the purpose
for which they were avowedly framed
and passed.
