THE FAI.IL
From present prospects the approach ing
State Fair, to be held in this city, will be .one
of the largest and most interesting gatherir igs
which has over taken place in the State.—
We hope the manufacturers and artizans of
of Pittsburgh will, on tnis occasion, show vtl.aat
they can do. A united effort on the part of
our own citizens will make the Pittsbur,'Oa.
Department of the fair of great interest to
strangers, and of great utility to the exhibit.-
ors themselves. Let our mechanics exhibit
the same spirit in this matter, that our agri—
culturists and horticulturists do, and the in.
terest of the forthcoming exhibition will be.
greatly enhanced.
A Mistake
The Gazette charges Judge Porter with be_
ing upon an electioneering tour throughout
the State. Such is not the fact. After an
arduous summer's business, Judge Porter
came west to spend a short time of relaxation
'from official duties, with his friend Judge
Thompson, of Erie. As his place of real
det6ce is in Philadelphia, to reach his destina
tion, Judge Porter was necessarily compelled
to pass through the State, and hence the Ga.
gate's error.
TILE Journal wishes to know how many
isms Andrew Burke. Esq., the Demoo:ratic
nominee for Congress in the Twenty •first. Dis
trict represents. The entire people of Alle_
gheny county can answer, that he has always
been a firm and unswerving r.tivocate of the
principles tho Democratic vary. Th, re is
no man in the county who hris a eleraer I)em
ocratic record.
As for Mr. Thomas Williams, be does not
belong to the Democratic party, and has no
sympathies with its principles. The op posi<
tion appear to consider him a fungus upon
them, but the attempt to transplant him into
our ranks is idle and futile. Such a political
irs - us naturae, as Mr. Williams is, cannot
thrive on Democratic soil, He belongs of
right to the hybrid ranks of the opposision
and if the editor of the Journal deems him a,
"barren fig tree," let him " dig about and
da l: p" him.
Tile Two Slates :
This is the title of a new novel from the
prolific pen of l'ff Southwortb, which has
been laid upon our table by Messrs. W. A.
Gildenfenny & Co. Her stories are always
well written, and popular. The present work
is a story of southern life r and abounds in
finely sketched characters and entertaining
details of life. The plot is well managed,
and all who commence the perusal of the
work, will not cease until they have arrived
at its last page.

Coat of the Atlentle Telegraph
The amount actually paid iu of the capital
of the Atlantic Telegraph Company is $l,-
9t6,t)00. C'et of this the charge for the en'
tire cable has been paid, together with all
other expenses, and a small cash balance is
still in hand applicable to the current outlay.
It is understood that the only additional cap-
ital now intended to be raised is the em ill
sum that will bring the total to 2,500.000,
and which is required for the various stations,
&c., that remain to be established. Nearly
500 miles of the cable remain, the total paid
from the two ships having been only 3022
miles.
Berke County.
Hon. J. Glancy Jones, has been re•nomina

The Pennsylvania Railroad Emigrant
The repairs recently made to the emigrant
cars on the Pennsylvania Railroad, have ren
dered them superior in all respects to those
in use on the other great thoroughfares of
travel from the East to the West. The number
of passengers carried, is large, although of
course not so great as at the beginning of the
season. It is a fact of much signlcance, that
at least one fourth of all the westward bound
passengers arriving at New York from foreign
' ports, come on to Philadelphia, and from
thence by the Pennsylvania Railroad, al-.
thouge - the greatest possible efforts are made
by those who are interested. in New York
lines, to have them proceed by way of Erie or
Buffalo.
Williamsport Encampment
The Board of Directors of the Pennsylvania
Railroad have resolved to issue excursion
tickets over their road at half their usual rate
of fair during the continuance of the Wil
liamsport:Military Encampment. The same
arrangement has been made by the Directors
of the Northern Central Railroad.
The Value of a Slater's lorlendahlp
The New York News learns. from Washing
ton, that Mr. Horace Moody has been re-ap
pointed by the President, U. S. Collector at
Ogdensburgh, N. Y. which office he has held
for five years. That print adds, " Mr. Moody
is the brother.inNlaw of the late Silas
Wright, who was long the intimate and cher•
isbed friend of Mr. Buchanan, and it is un-,
derstood that the re appointment was made
at the earnest solicitation of Mrs. Wright, the
the widow of the Fa-Governor, who person.
ally requested it for her brother.
Death of an Authoress
Mrs. Harriet Marion Stephens, cf Boston,
died on Friday last, at the residence of her
sister, at East Hampden, Me., aged 35 years
Her death was caused by consumption. In
early life the deceased appeared upon the
stage, under the name of " Miss Rosalie Sums
ere," where she remained until 1850, since
which time she has been well known by the
contributions of her pen under the signatures
of " Marion Ward" and "H. M. S." She
was the author of one novel, " Hagar, the
Martyr," and of a great variety of tales,
sketches and poems, a collection of:vciiich
was published with the title of " Home Scenes
arid Home Sounds."
A London Speculation
The proposition in the London Times to
annex Mexico to the United States has im
proved the price of Mexican stock. It seems
to be taken for granted in London that the
American appetite for new Territory is so
strong, that it will swallow anything, and
that Great Britian interposing no objections,
Mexican annexation is settled. The London
speculators will discover very soon that the
objections are obstacles of our own creating,
and not those that Great Britain interposed.
The United States are not prepared to take
into the Union an entire nation, with habits ,
customs and language all differing from their
own. Neither are they disposed to reject any
measure which will add to their own growth
and prosperity and the general good. The
question must be first decided whether the
advantages counterbalance the disadvantages.
United Stases Mint
The statement of the operations of the Mint
of the United States, ft'r the month of August,
shows a gold_deposit of $232,270 ; of silver,
$107,270 ; of old cents in exchange for new,
$4075. Total deposits for the month $543,%
716, The coinage for the same time was
$136,654_in gold, nearly all of which was in
double eagles ; the coinage in silver was $420,-
000,'principally in half and quarter dollars ;
in copper, $16,000. The total coinage of the
month woe $472,654, covering 3,111,213
pieces.
Tau conferees of the counties composing
the di strict, at present represented by Hon.
Alison White, have all been instructed unan
imously for his renomination. This shows
that the popular heart of the Democracy is
with him and they will yield him an enthusi
astic and and hearty support.
'rile Herndon Medal.
The medal ordered to be prepared by the
Virginia Legislature in honor of the late Cap
tain Herndon, of the ill.fated steamship Cen
tral America, and to be presented to his
widow, has been finished. From a descrip
tion of it in the Richmond Enquirer we copy
the following:
The Herndon medal is of pure gold, about two
inches in diameter. On one side is depicted in
bold relief the scene of the tempest, the life-boat
crowded with passengers and struggling with the
waves, the steamer half dismantled and the
Loroio commander standing resolutely on an
elevated part of the wreck. The necessarily
small scale of the picture does not admit of any
strict accuraoy in the depiction of the human
figures, but, like the beautiful symbolic engrav
ings from the antique, it is sufticienly distinct
to relate in an unmistakable form the now well
known story of the ohristian hero's self-saorilic
lug devotion. Around this device are inscribed
the following words: "Devotion to duty, ohris
tiau conduct, and genuine heroism respected and
revered." The reverse of the medal bears the
following inscription, surrounded by a delicate
olive wreath, wrought With exquisite finish and
nrinntenees : " Presented to the widow of Capt.
Wiliam Lewis Herndon, United States Navy, by
Virginia, as a testimonial of respect for her vir
tuous :ion, a noble and gallant officer. 18e)8."
" I SAY, Pete, in gwoing roan' de woe' trab
lera tell ue dat you lose one 'hole day." " Dat
ain't auffin, Sam, when you can make'm up
again." " Eislw you gwine to make it up—tell
me did ?" "%Y y , jis turn round and go back
again."
VARIOUS TIAINGS.
—The Durand Hodson opera troupe is per , .
orming at the Louisville Theatre.
. .
—A good deacon making an official visit to a
dying neighbor, who was a very churlish and
universally unpopular man, put forth the usual
question—" Are you willing to go, my friend
"Oh yes," said the man, " I am." "
said the simple minded deacon. "I am glad
you are, for all the neighbors are willing !"
—A singular circumstance, but not one out of
the course of nature, occurred on the steamer
Superior, during her last trip from Louisville, to
Cincinnati. A lady passenger gave birth to a
pair of twins—fine bouncing girls—as the boat
was about making a landing at Warsaw, nine
o'clock on Sunday evening last. Scarcely bad
the pleasurable excitement oonsequeut upon
such oesslons subsided, when intelligence was
received in the cabin that a German lady on
deck had become the mother of three boys.
Such a hasty addition in the passenger way,
rather confound the officers.
—Governor Medary, has returned from his
western trib, and is now at Columbus.
—The Keller Troupe, being unable to play at
Cleveland, on account of tho closing of the The
atre have gone to Columbus.
—During the last month patents have been
ssued to the State of Arkansas for over six
hundred and fifty thousand acres of swamp
lands in the Helena district, and to the &ate of
Missouri for one hundred and thirty-four thous
acres in the Milan district.
—The Lager Beer sellers at Coiambus, Ohio,
apprehensive of a scarcity of the article have
raised the pr:oe of lager.
—The auctioneers of Philadelphia are com
plaining of the onerous taxation imposed upon
their business by the laws of the State. They
say that although the business of auctioneering
is generally supposed to be profitable, then
has been but a single instance in that pity; of an
auctioneer retiring from business with a oompe-
John Mister, is about to open the Detral
Theatre
- -
—The Democrats of Little Rook, Ark., carri
ed that city at the late election for the first time
for twenty-three years.
—A letter from New York says : Though
everybody is supposed, and said to be out of
town, there is something new in the way of fash'
ionable dress. Several ladies promenading
Broadway yesterday afternoon, displayed a new
style of dress. The back, between the shoulder
straps, was cut in the shops of a letter V., so
as to display a handsome nook, shoulders and
back to advantage Ihe vacantly was bordered
like that sometimes visible in front by pretty lace
edging."
—From the minutes of the several Conferen

The Emperor Napoleon'■ Journey—Mß
to Ills Former Prison
At Port Louis, the Emperor visited the room,
where he h.d been a prisoner, and he after
wayds, on the ramparts, pointed some guns with
considerable success. His ajesty then enter
ed into where an affecting scene took
place between the Emperor and Madame Per
reaux, the widow of an old engineer of the
guard, who, while It's Majesty was residing at
Port Louis, dev)ted to him all the care of a
mother. The affectionate manner In which
Madame Perreaux expressed to the Emperor
her joy at swing him again before she died,
and the kindnesss with which his Majesty re
plied to her, drew tears from the eyes of all
present. The Emperor enquired with the deep
est solicitude into the position of Madame Per
reaux, and on being told that she had two ohil
dren, one of them a sergeant-major in the Engi•
nears, at the siege of Constantine, and that she
was in rather straitened circumstances from hav
ing a large family to bring up, his Majesty prom
ised to secure their future welfare, followed by
the benedictions of those who had been made so
happy by the visit.
VANNES, August 16, 10 A. m.—Their Majes
ties are now leaving this place for Chalet de
Come and Honet.
. At Vannes, on Sunday, the Emperor and Ems
press were received at the doer of the church by
the grand vicar, surrounded by the clergy. The
prelate delivered an address, in which he stated
that the clergy venerated the Emperor as the
sovereign whom God in his mercy bad raised up
to reassure and consolidate the church, to pre , .
serve France from dire evils, and to restore her
to her rank amongst nations. He spoke of the
Empress as " a new and pious Esther," and add%
ed that, like her Her Majesty was seated .on
the most splendid throne of the universe ; took
pleasure in spreading her benefits amongst the
people, and by her august example encouraged
the practice of virtue." The Emperor answered
in the following terms: "I thauk you for the
wishes you express for our happiness and for
that of our son. I could not doubt the send ,
mente of the clergy of Vannes, fur I am still
under the influence of the words full of devot,
edness and affection which the worthy bishop,
who is at your head, has addressed to me." On
one of the banners was the inscription, " Rome
and the Crimea,"
PARIS, Monday Evening.—Napoleon 111. pur
sues his career of ovations along the coast of
Brittany. At Vannes and other COWELD the pre , .
ton peasantry insisted on exhibiting a kind of
dance of the Highland fling character, which
they par:tamed in strict costume. The woman's
dress I despair of picturing, but the men were
accoutred in colored (mostly red) hose, large
shoes, buckles, knee breeches, not of the peg-top
model, but of globular shape, typifying the old
est fashion of Gallia braccata, with round hats
such as are still worn by our Welsh women, and
skirtless jackets. I should add that many apolo
gies had to be made for the huge silver buttons
which still exhibited the royal fleur-de-lis, ss
Breton's embroidered jaelset and its appurtenan
ces form an heirloom, and sumo of these gar.--
meats data from the reign of Henry Quatro. At
Auray, the imperial couple were approachiug
the far-famed shrine of Ste. Anne, and had to
listen to a long chaunt eung by the students
of the seminary, in sad doggrel about the man
tle of that Hebrew matron. Ez. gr. :
En ton Palais do Louvre, Si no loup faroucho
Quo sOn manto9U to couvro, Rode autour do to cutely,'
Upwards of 30,000 pe.adants had booked to the
small hermitage of Ste Anne, where the Sunday
service was gene through with fitting solemnity.
It was remarked that thougu the clergy was in
great force, this gathering did not recall the pop
ular monster meetings which met with pitch,
fgrks and fowling pieces during the yendean
war; the utter absence of the noble families
showing that if legitimacy is obsolete among the
masses, it lingers among the inheritors, of his
toric pedigree, and lurks in old chateaux and
manorial granges.
At the late grand ball at Brest, the Emperor
danced with the mayor's daughter, Mdlle. Be
zet, the Empress with the mayor himself ; and
Admiral Hamelin, Ministre de la Marine, was
also in the set. The Empress's toilette was coif
fure classique, notes et bonohes, diadem of dia
monds, of which was the famous stone called le
Regent ; a necklace with three rows of large
pearls, with a diamond clasp bracelet, diamonds
and torquoise. Her dress was of blue tulle,
studded with silver, with immense diamond
brochea in front of the corsage.

The Atianttle Telegraph Celebration In
NEW YORK, September 2 —ln the celebration
procession yesterday, Cyrus W. Field rode stand
ing in an open barouche, and was greeted
throughout with waving handkerchiefs and
vociferous cheers. The presentation speech to
Mr. Field made by Mayor Tien:main was neat and
complimentary, was responded to by Mr. Field
as follows: Sir—This will be a memorable day
in my life, not only because it eelebrabes the
success of an achievement with which my name
is connected, but because the honor comes from
the city of my home, the metropolitan city of the
new world. I see here not only civic authorities
and citizens at largo, but my own personal
friends—men with whom I have been connected
in business and friendly intercourse for the
greater part of my life. Five weeks ago this
day and hour I was standing on the deck of the
Niagara in mid•ooean, with the Gorgon end Val
orous in sight, awaiting for the Agamemnon.
The day was cold and cheerless; the air was
misty ; and the wind roughened the sea, and
when I - thought of all that we have passed
through, of hopes thus far disappointed, of
' friends saddened by our reverses, of the few that
remained to sustain us, I felt a load at my heart
almost too heavy to bear, though my confidence
was firm and my determination fixed. How dif
ferent is the Sow now before me—this vast
crowd testifying their sympathy and approval_
praises without stint and friends without num
ber. This occasion, sir, gives inn an opportunity
to express my thanks for the enthusiastic recep
tion I have received, and I here make my ac
knowledgements before the vast concourse of my
fellow-citizens. To the ladies, I may add that
they have had their appropriate place, for when
the cable was laid the first public message that
passed over it came from one of their own sex.
This box, sir, which I have the honor to receive
from your hands, shall testify to me and to my
children what my own city thinks of my sots.
For your kindness in presenting it in such flat
tering terms, and for the kindness of my fellow
citizens, I ream my most heartfelt thanks.
The oration was delivered by David Dudley
Field, and was a masterly performrnoe, eliciting
repeated applause from t:e vast assemblage.
After services at the Palate, a torch light pro

to think, the public are indebted to Mr. Noyes.

A Diabolical Exbibitioa.
In the year 1884, said to as yesterday a die
tingulshed legal gentleman of New Orleans, I
visited Paris in the course of a European tour
- _
that my Americanism might be polished down
by a little attrition among the genteel particles
of Parisian society. I found the world of Paris
in a very considerable state of excitement in
consequence of an extraordinary performance
which was nightly exhibited by an Eastern jug
gler, and which was nothing more nor loss than
the a ppareut decapitation of a man in the pros- ,
ence of an audienoe, and under the very noses
of a committee of medical gentlemen, who stood
only so far distant while the operation was being
performed as to escape the swing of the long
two-edged sword with which the juggler emote
*ff the head. I went to see this exhibition')
hioh took place in a theatre, in company with
several American gentlemen. The theatre was
crowded with between two and three thousand
spectators, and the curtain was up, displaying a
common table, six feet long, upon the stage, at
the very edge of which I obtained a seat, having
gone very early.
At the given time, the jaggier, a singular-look
ing man, came upon the stage, with his shirt
sleeves rolled up to the shoulders, and bearing a
long, heavy, two-edged sword. He upset the ta
ble upon the boards and showed that there was
no concealed drawer or other recess, and placed
it in the blaze of the footlights near the edge of.
the stage. In a few words he stated what he was
going to do, and requested some of the audience
to come forward and stand upon the stage, that
they Aright see there was no deception. A num,.
ber of medical gentlemen who had been chosen
as a committee to investigate the matter, if pos
sible, took their position upon the stage, and
soon after, the victim, who had been sitting in
the parquotte, mounted the stage, removed his
coat and cravat, turned back his shirt collar,
and laying down upon his book, on the table,
elevated his chin to more fairly expose hls neck
to the headsman's weapon. The juggler then
raised his keen and fearful looking sword, and
giving it a wide sweep, brought it down—l say
brought it down upon the nook, for no one could
see that he did not, even those within three feet
of him—upon the neck of the subject with great
force I
Blood spurted high into the air, some of it
falling on our party and deluged the stage, while
the most fearful sound, a something between
a groan and a shriek of horror shook the onild
iug, and numerous women and some males fell
fainting in their seats, and were borne out by the
ushers of the house. The juggler raised his
sword again, repeated the blow, and the dissev
ered head fell upon the floor ? Taking it by
the hair ho held it up to the audience for full
live minutes, uutii the blood had ceased to flow
from the severed arteries, the lower jaw had
fallen, and the face had assumed the appearance
of a corpse ; then throwing it heavily upon the
stage he requested the committee to examine it,
which they did, passing it from hand to hand.
They then examined the body upon the table,
from the headless neck of which the blood had
not yet ceased to drop upon the floor of the stage;
they lifted the limbs and let them fall with the
limp inertia of lifeless matter, and of course,
pronounced the man dead to all intents and pur-
pose;
After they had concluded their investigation,
the juggler informed the audeece that he was
going to put the man's head on again, and re
store him to life. Taking up the head he laid
it on the tabie, fitted the two parts of the neck
to each other, and began to mutter and make
signs over the corpse. In about five minutes
the 1 ately decapitated ;non slowly turned his
ghastly and altogether horrible face—white as
snow—toward the audience, and an excitement
fell ;wed, exceeding, if anything, that which cc
entrod when the first blow of the sword fell. In
a few moments the eyelids gradually opened and
displayed the eyes wearing a glassy, corpee-like
stare ; by degrees, a life-like speculation came
into them, some color returned to the face; and,
after stretching his limbs, the man arose from
the table, resumed his coat, and walked down
from the stage and mingled with the crowd.
The exhibition was over. The neck of the
apparently decapitated man bore a red mark and
scar around it, like the oicatrice of a newly
healed wound. All this f saw with my own eyes,
which were as effectually deceived as those of
tow of thousands of other persons. I could, in
no way consistently with reason, account for
auy featureof this horribly thrilling feat of trick
ery. I have never heard of the trick being per
formed by any other man, and very possibly it
originated and died with him. However, it is
scarcely more nnacoottntable than many often
displayed feats of the adroit Bastern jugglers.

This is to certify that my child, three years old, was trot'
bled with worms some six months. I had tried several kinds
of medicine, but none of them done any geed ; and it was
not until I tried Dr. li'Lane'e Celebrated Vermifuge, pro
pared by Flaming Bros , that she found any ivlief. I gave
her the contents of one bottle, which brought from her a
vat y large quantity of worms, but they wore so completely
cut to pieces it was impossible to count them. My daughter
to now doing well; indeed, she is completely restored to
health. I therefore take pleasure in recommending it to
parents. I would say, by all means keep a supply of this
valuable medicine constantly in your houses. I have known
ninny children to die suddenly from the effects of worms.
It also not unfrhquently nappene that children are treated
for croup, when the choking and coughing is caused alto
gethsr, by the irritation of worms. Therefore, I say again,
keep it always in the house; it costs but little, and may be
the mean , ' of saving life; and at any rata it will save physi

ha inforrod that they are lacking in some of the great eseen.

ply from a want of disposition cr ability, on the part of the
original proprietor, (Dr. Wilson,) a as alwayr limited to such
an extent as at times to renderit difficult to fill home orders,
but with oven this disadvantane wherever used they have
