Congressman Hit was Lipcoln's stem ogrspher in the debates with Douglass, and during the municipal elections of 1859 in Chicago, immediately after de. feat, he reported speech his chef had made at the polling place as the returns were coming in. In 1t he addressed him self to Wendell Phillips, Horace Greedy and other critics in the east, who thought he ought not to have opposed Douglass. Alter the meeting Hit took the speech over to the Chicago Tribune, and sald {: "Lincoln has made speech-the first one Tn fine temper since his defeat. am going to write it out for you and give it to you" So he sat down to do the writing, when the managing editor, Hen. " M. Smith, came in and said:
 "Mr. Hit, we really haven't got room for that speech of Lincoln's. We want all our room for the city election returns" which proves that Lincoln, in his own metropolis, was considered hardly worth TeE orting in the face of an election for town officers, only year before he was talked of for president. This speech Hit subsequently, discovered in one of his old note books thirty years after the event He noticed in an old notebook that piece of shorthand was not run through with line, and, as he read it over, the memory O! that night returned. Then for the first time he transcribed the speech, and gave it to Hay and Nicolay for their history, and b Thorndyke Rice for his Review. It was only saved by ac. cident.-Cleveland World.

COMING STATE FAIR.
A Particularly Bright OutlOok-The
Premium List Ready.

Premium List Ready.
The annual State fair is now coming
on apace. In fact it is only four
mouths before the people of the State
will assemble.'on the fair grounds at tho
Capital City and enjoy a week of social
and sight seeing pleasures. This year
the society has the appropriation from
the State again, and the coming fair
promises even now to be the greatest
held in recent years. Besides, there
will be no Atlanta exposition 10 oper-
ate against it.
The managers of the great exposi-
tion nre sparing no pains to make the
coming fair the grandest ever held in
South Carolina, and the conditions are
such that 1T can be mudc so.
Secretary Holloway writes letter to
Treasurer Huggins as follows about the
approaching fair:
1.-The premium list of the approaching
State Fair to be held November 8 to
13, is now ready to be mailed to all
who may apply for n copy. 1t is to be
hoped that the demand will commence
Mt once, so as to give ample time for
exhibitors to get their exhibits ready.
Entry sheets will also be furnished,
when desired.
1T has been q hard struggle with
the grand old society to survive the
past four years, but rs the people Of
the State are in better coalition, finan-
cially, socially and politically, strong
hopes are entertained that the bitter
ness throughout the State has in q
measure passed away ard that hence
forth all may become harmonious
again and that prosperity may be en-
joyed by all our people.
''The fair next November promises
to be unusually successful. Stalls are
being already engaged for stock. Sales
of live stock on the grounds at auction
will be one OF tho interesting features
of tho fair. Notice has already been
given of quite number of standard
bred horses to be sold at auction of a
class of as well bred as anywhere in
the country. The large sales at the
approaching fair practically transforms
the sales days in Kentucky and Ten
nessee of thoroughbred and we'll bred
horses to Columbia, S. c. 1t is the
intention of breeders to continue such
sales from year to year, until the i'm
provement in the stock will he found
in the hands of every humble farmer
in the State.
''The ball has been started, and
whom the fair opens all are cordially
invited to give their presence to the
occasion. Not alone for pecuninry ad-
vnntages let the fair be upheld, but let
the social feature be another reason
for bringing together the largest at
tendance CT visitors ever seen on any
any occasion in our State.
'The managers feel assured that the
press of the State will give their read
ers frequent notices of the fair. That
this will be done there is no doubt, AS
tho press is regarded as the embodi-
ment of patriotism and progress and
may be relied upon to do its full duty
in promoting the industrial develop
ment of the State"
