110! FOR THE FAIR.
WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY
The SOth mid 2lsl iusis., Will
be Hie ItiK Days.
COME ONE, COME ALL.
Everybody should remember that
next week is Fair Week, and endeavor
to be on the grounds during at least
one of the big days. The Fair was a
great success last year and the man
agers have made every effort to make
this one an improvement over.the last,
i The exhibit of stock is expected to be
1 superior to that of last year, and con
sidering the excellent exhibit of last
year, this is saying a great deal.
The entries are already large, eight
stallions just imported from Scotland
and owned by one man, and a Cots
wold sbeep having fine wool fourteen
inches long will be among the stock
exhibits. The stock exhibit of the
State Fair at Pittsburgh ends on the
18th inst., and the managers of our
Fair have made arrangements to ship
the best of the exhibits there to Butler
the next day.
Floral Hall, the feature of a Fair of
especial interest to the ladies, will be
beautifully decorated, the managers are
making a special effort in this direction,
and music will lie furnished by the
Gerruania B&nd. _
Art kinds of Agricultural machfnery
of all the best makes will be in motion
on the grounds. Two wiud-mill com
panies will have mills in operation
there. There will be horse racing on
both days, Wednesday and Thursday.
A stallion trot for stallions that
have never trotted for money, will be
an especial feature. Thfcre will also
be two mule races. The display of
all kinds of poultry will be good, as it
usually is, and the vegetable and grain
displays are expected to be unusually
good. The success of a Fair is for
everybody to go to see it, and it will
be an easy thiDg for the people of the
town to get there this year. The
P. & W. R> 11. have erected a platform
on the ridge opposite the grounds,
bave built steps down to the creek
and a foot bridge across it, and will
take passenger* . . »
TO THE GROUNDS FOB 5 CENTS.
Ten cents will hereafter take you to
find from the grounds, instead of fifty
as heretofore, and no dust. If the
weather is good we expect to see an
immense crowd on the grounds.
Remember that the 20th and 21st,
Wednesday and Thursday, will be the
big days
Note* on Current Eients.
The Mormans have issued their man"
ifesto. They will stand by polygamy
to "the death, and defy Congress to put
them down. "In spite of Congress, in
spite of any statute leveled against us,
in spite of a fanatical and hostile pulpit,
in spite of all the hostile forces that
call W brought against us, we must
and will continue to fight for our priv
ileges without flinching or wavering,
but with unswerving faithfulness."
The last stringer on the bridge, the
highest on earth, oyer the Kinzua
chasm, McKean county, on the New
York, Lake Erie & Western Railroad,
was swung into place on the 2i)th ult.,
amid the wildest cheers of the work
men and spectators. This completes
the greatest engineering bridge feat of
the world, the strncture being 2050
long and 315 feet and 11| inches high
to the base of the rail. .The Rochester
& Pittsburg railroad have leased the
privilege of running over it until such
time as the latter can construct their
own bridge.
In a recent speech at Indianapolis
Senator Harrison gave this leaf from
experience in favor of civil service re
form, of which he declared himself an
advocate, saying: "My brief experience
at Washington has led me often to
utter the wish, with an emphasis that
I do not often use, that I might be
forever relieved of any connection with
the distribution of patronage. I covet
for myself the free and unpurchased
support of my fellow-citizens, and long
to be able to giye my time and energy
solely to those public affairs that legit
imately relate to the honorable trust
that you have committed to me."
Tbo strikes of the past summer have
cost labor from $8,000,000, to SIO,OOO
- aud have saved capital the ruin
ous expense of running mills when
iron and steel and cotton cloth was
not wanted. This shows that the
strikes were a blunder. It does not
fcbow more; for the workmen had the
same right to spend $10,000,000 in
trying to have their own way as any
other American citizen. The right of
workingmcn to bargain over their
wages is not affected a job by their
failure to get the price they asked in
this bargaining; but the reputation of
American workingmen for intelligence
and good sense will be affected, if after
this costly failure to bargain by strik
ing, they do not adopt some way to
bargain by arbitration.
The possibility of the occurrence of
a religious war as the outgrowth of
Arabi Pacha's rebellion, gives a special
interest at this time to the religion of
which he is in a sense a representative.
This interest is increased by the mili
tary movement of the False Prophet
of the Soudan, to whom reference
was made some weeks since. The
spirit of Islam, it is well known, is
that of aggression and extension, by
the sword, if need be. Mohammed
literally fought for the faith; and every
true follower of his must hold that
Islam is the one religion, that it will
ultimately be universal, and that it in
his duty at any cost to widen its sway.
The fact has to be recognized, too, that
Islam is a power ; that it not only
claims consideration as the religion of
175,000,000 of people, but that it is an
international religion, having ' its grip
on two continents, and foothold in 4 a
third."

WALT WHITMAN'S LEAVES OF GKASS.
The edition of Walt Whitman's
"Leaves of Grass," about which so
much has been written on account of
the abandonment of its publication by
a Boston firm in consequence of Mr.
Anthony Comstock's allegations that
it contained objectionable passages,
has been issued by Rees Welsh & Co.,
Philadelphia. The book contains so
much true poetry, so many passages
which stamp their author as a true
poet of a high, though certainly not of
the highest order, that it is a pity that
Mr- Whitman's own good sense has
not moved him long ago to cut out the
"Children of Adam," words and lines,
which add nothing at all to the beauty
of his work and which certainly are
not structural and vital to it. The
author of such a poem as "O Captain,
My. Captain," does himself injustice
and puts himself at a disadvantage
most unnecessarily and most cruelly
by flying in the face of decent public
opinion. Walt Whitman's personality
is too sweet and sound and clear to
be put by a mere piece of injudlcious
ness at so great a disadvantage as that
under which a few expressions in his
poems—wantonly and wilfully kept
there against the advice of his best
friends—cause him to labor. He will
not expunge them himself, and there
fore he must pay the penalty ; but
after he is dead they will be blotted
out of editions, for lovers of the good
man will be sure to do for his fame
that which he himself has—we are
sure, foolishly refused to do for it.
Tho Orphan*' Home.
The change in the Superintendency

Sjperintendent elect, Rev. P. C.
