The site of the Fair.
The site Of the fair adjoins the city and
is practically a suburb of it. The ain
buildings are on slightly higher ground
than the rest and are visible Tor miles in
every direction The grounds have a
straight frontage upon Bleekley avenue
OF more than quarter OF a mile and run
backward along Piedmont avenue, almost
at a right angle. for more than half a
mile ON their eastern side they are prac-
tCally fenced in by the Southern railway.
This latter feature IS a very fortunate

NEW YORK CITY CONTRASTS.
The Busiest Quarters In the Daytime Are
the Loneliest at Night.

The Busiest quarters In the Daytime are
the Loneliest at Night.
1t is by very force Of contrast that
the quietest places in New York at
night are those which are noisiest by
day-to wit, the great shipping and
warehouse quarters. From the foot
Of Forty second street, on the east,
clear around the island to the New
York Central railroad slips at tho
foot of Sixtieth street, on the west,
there are during the day the rush of
traffic, tho CHATTER of buggies, the
rumble of trucks, the classic apos-
trophies Of the truckmen, the build
ing up and demolition Of pyramids
of merchandise on the wharves and
the quick moving streams of men
loading and unloading craft from
here, there and everywhere.
But at night all this great belt of
activity is quiet and deserted save
in an occasional spot where there is
an extra rush on some piece of work.
The streets are filled with empty
trucks and carts. There is the erratio
glimmer of lanterns and the faint
sound of horses feeding in unsuspect-
ed stables. The shadowy figures of
watchmen move slowly about, tho
ship lanterns rise and fall with the
tide, and square patches of light
mark the ships companionways and
the scuttle holes of the canalboats.
Across the street the restaurants and
saloons are open and sometimes
noisy, but along the waterside it is
as quiet as the river itself.
The Contrasts even greater in the
great business blocks along Green
wich street on the one side and those
abutting ON Water street on the East
river, those wonderful sections Of
tho city where the products of the
world are not only dealt in, but actu-
ally handled; where Offices are grimy
and the warehouses bursting with
riches. During the daylight hours
there is no cease to the movement
here-not the movement of people,
but the movement of goods. 1t is
not the r-cstissiuo movement either
that one sees over on the great thor
oushfarcs of travel, but the open,
largo movement of cargocs on wheels
drawn by poldcrous BEAST; of bur
den. Il is tho extent, not the rapid
lty, CT tie business that is bewillar
ing. 1t is as though all the world
had turned merchant and was trad
ing here. And then, when the dusk
comes on, Il strange loneliness comes
down on everything. The roaring
trucks go off, and their absence alone
changes the whole character of the
locality. Great iron doors are banged
to, specks of light show where the
shipping clerks are laying out their
plans for next mornings first job,
the narrow streets take On unaccus-
toned airs of quiet and are seen to
be oven narrower and dirtier than
they were thought to be when filled
from house to house with moving
loads of clean packages, and when
the last clerk locks the door and sour
ries away to the lighted and lively
streets it is as thoUsh the very spirit
of loneliness had taken possession Of
the place. New York Sun.

Jackson and Cleveland.

Daily States:
We quite agree with the Courier
Journal in the paragraph we print
below. One of the most memora-
bic contests between a Congress
and President, in which the form
er sought to crush the latter, was
the passage ola resolution censur-
ing Andrew Jackson; and in the end
the Congress had to swallow its
resolution body and boots, and
Old Hickory lived aud died the
most beloved of Americans, and
the Democrat BY whom all Democ
racy has since his day been meas
ured. And the issue between
Congress and Jackson was very
much like that between the crazy
free silyerites and Cleveland.
The Courier.Jownal says:
"Although Congress has the
hardihood to refuse theiPresident
express authority to issue gold
bonds, thereby entailing upon the
taxpayers of the country al ad.
aitional and an entirely nnneces-
sary interest burden ofover$16,OOo

sing a resolution censuring the
President for his course 10 pro.
tecting the national credit. BY all
means let them PISS such reso.
luton. Nothing could more sharp.
ly define the issue between MI.
Cleveland and Congress. But in
passing it they would do we'll to
remember that another Congress
once passed such resolution cen.
surfing Andrew Jackson, with the
result of making Old Hickory
ultimate victory all the more EN-.
phatic."
Like Andrew Jackson, Grover
Cleveland has been the target at
which all the libelous, defamatory
and poisoned shafts Of the crazy
tinanciers Of the country have
been discharged, but they will re-
coil upon his detractors and fall
harmless at his feet, inst as they
did in the case of "Old Hickory
Indeed, if it were possible to pass
IL resolution of censure for the re.
cent bond issue, upon which he is
now being publicly arraigned and
have it recorded upon the journals
of the Senate and House, there
would arise another "great ex.
puDger," who, as in the case OF
President Jackson-when the hos.
tile majority in Congress, passed
and entered upon the journals OF
the Senate by a very attenuated
vote, resolution Of censure for
the removal Ofthe deposits-woultl
arise in his place in that Body, as
Thos. Ii. Benton did, and move
successfully that it be expunged
from the journals Of the Senate.
Like Andrew jackson, Grover
Cleveland will descend to his
grave as one of the most patriotic
and hOn0red of the illustrious stars
who compose the brilliant galaxy
Of American Presidents. Long If
ter his calumniators have been
ferried across the Stygian river
and have been forgotten by pos.
terity, the name OF Grover Cleve.

of Andrew Jackson, will be rever,
