Boston in Flames.
BOSTON, NovomberO, io p. m.-Tho
first alarm was sounded about half-past
seven, followed by the second, third and
fourth in rapid succession. The first en
gine was hardly on the ground when tho
flames burst from the fourtii granite sto
ry on the corner of Rummer and King
ston s'reets-occupied as a wholesale dry
goods store. The fire caught in the en
gine room, and the Haines, following the
elevator, were first seen under thc roof.
The buildings in tho vicinity are four
story granite, with Mansard roofs Tho
flames soon reached the Mansard roofs
on thc opposite side, iar beyond the reach
of the engines. In less than thirty min
utes tho whole city, in one direction, was
at Ike mercy of the Hames, which leaped
from roof to roof. Ono great dry goods
houso after another succumbed. Granite
walls fell in the streets making them im
passable.
9 O'CLOCK, SUNDAY, November 10.
The fire still rages. The engines have
been driven back from station to station.
Granite blocks weighing tons were split,
and the fragments hurled across the
streets.
LATER.-Buildings are being blown
upon Lindell and Congress streets to
check the flames.
Bebees' block, the finest business struc
ture in the city, has been burned.
Stewart's rooms only fed the flames.
Pieces of d ry goods went whistling across
the square, firing stores on Devonshire
street. Every building was heated to
the verge of spontaneous combustion and
caught like tinder. Deafening explo
sions are constantly heard.
Tlie tenement houses on the upper end
of Federal street have now caught.
Crazed women rush to and fro, with
clocks and bedding in their arms.
The wool houses in Federal street
caught next. They were crammed from
cellar to garret. The paper houses came
next. The Freeman's National Bank
went next.
The fire has l eached dimensions that
simply defy description. The peoplcof
Boston find themselves in danger of their
lives. The loss of houses and property
is now scarcely thought of. The peo
ple are retiring beforo the flames toward
Tremont and ' Court streets, where the
fire, it is supposed, will bo unablo to
reach, but a gale is blowing, and it seems
to have no positive direction. It is prob
able that Faneuil Hall and Quine}' Mar
ket will go. The Western Union Tele
graph office was abandoned at half-past
eight.
BOSTON, November 10, ll: a. m.-'
Tho Ure is still raging witli unabated
fury.

is under control. The losses, if no more
buildings are burned, will not fall short
of $200,000,000.
The burned district is bounded by
Summer, Federal, Broad, Central, Wa
ter, Washington and Bedford streets.
BOSTON, November 10, 2:20 p m.-Tho
conflagration was checked at one o'clock,
alter fifteen hours' havoc, having des
troyed hundreds of the costliest build
ings in the country, and having tempora
rily paralyzed the shoe, leather, wool
and dry gooth> trades. Not one whole

The Edgefield Sabre Club.
Several members of tho Edgefield Sa
bre Club have been in attendance at the
State Fair. The club was one of the first
of the sort organized in the State, and is
in a most flourishing condition. Among
the members present we noticed Major
Gary, the president of the club.
On the 29th instant a banner will bo
presented to this clubby the ladies of
Edgefield county. On the same day of,
the presentation a tournament will be
! held, and in the evening the club will
entertain the company by a ball, for
which great preparations have been
made. Professor LyBrand's band has
been engaged for the occasion, and any
one who knows anything about Edge
held, its-beauty and good cheer, can form
alair estimate of tho good time coming.

Failure of the Platform of Reconcilia
tion.
Tho returns of tho Presidential election
only record ?Ly hy day how overwhelm
ing is tho Liberal defeat, have complete
the Administration triumph. Not by a
popular majority of tbreehundred thou
sand votes, as in the election of 18G8, but
by six, Bevon, eight hundred thousand
probably a million of votes. It seems
clear that political Republicanism is
more popular even than four years'ago.
Tbs platform of reconciliation, adopted
by the Cincinnati party, has failed. The
Norihern people do not want any "shak
ing of hands across tho bloody chasm."
They want us to pay taxes, to swell the
revenue, to restore commerce, and thero
the matter ends. Greeley, and Sumner,
and Trumbull, and Curtin, and Schurz,
and Banks, and a thousand other Repub
lican leaders, embracing, beyond "all
doubt, the brain and character of the
party, have been flouted and scorned by
the people of the North and West ; and
Grant, as President, has achieved a vic
tory more renowned than Grant as Gen
eral.
And now we have nothing to do but
take caro of ourselves and our local mat
ters as well and wisely as we can. And
when we run a man lor President next
time, lot us bid him degrade us with no
more overtures of reconciliation.

The Columbia Fair.
Great things are not infrequent in this
age orprogress and day of wonders, but
we do not every day see such a remarka
ble thing as a Columbia Fair. Not that
the FxhibitJon was very grand or full,
for truth compels us to say there were,
or seemed to be, fewer articles on show
than on former occasIons.^But then the
show was quite rich and full enough to
be extremely interesting. And as to the
crowd of strangers, it was greater than
ever before ; and more money waa made
at the Fair gates than ever before ; and
the ' merchants raked in moro money
J than ever before ; and both strangers and
citizens evinced more interest than over
beforo
Tho Exhibition began fairly on Tues
day morning, and ended on Friday with
the going down of the sun. As we
neared the Fair at 2* P. M. (half hour
before the racing began) on Wednesday,
in a two horse vehicle containing ten
wretched men, the broad street was lit
erall j' covered with all manner of wheel
ed instruments, every one of which was
packed with human flesh-a fact indica
tive of what we were to see further on.
Fifty cents deposited at the gate, secured
.us an entrance. The crowd was pouring
densely and rapidly to the broad race
stand." The tumult was fearful. Horses,
horsemen, jockeys, betters, ?nd partisans
of both sides, raged and clamored to
gether ir. a horrid manner. Col. Bacon's
Bob Shelton was to run against Prussian,
a horso owned by Cash ?!c Fludd of Sum
ter-a dash of one mile.
THE RACK.
Bob Shelton won the race easily, amid
tremendous excitement No had been
beaten the day before by Girl of my
Heart, a mare raised by Col. Bucon, but
now owned by Cash ?? Fludd. In con
sequence of this tho big bets were upon
Prussian. Large sums of money changed
hands very unexpectedly; and as a pre
mium for speed, in this case, Col. Bacon
received a pair of silvor pitchers, valued,
wc believe, at a hundred dollars.
AFKW OF THK NOTICEABLE ARTICLES.
And now to the Exhibition arena, to
soo all the hue and useful things-quite
too numerous to attempt to mention
such as dry goods, furniture, sewing ma
chinos, crockery, hardware, musical in
struments, crystal fountains, paintings,
chromos, photographs, grist mills, thresh
ing machines, rollers, Uuidi-?JKgora.

of horses, from tho heavy built Norman
draught horso to tho sleek and slender
thorough bred ; hogs as long as horses,

fleecy sheep, antlered stags, slender
fawns, huge cows and tremendous bulls,
upoii whose expansive backs ono.might

breeds, Hizes and colors ; white possums
with pink eyes ; all sorts of preserves,

Let us particularize a few things.
DIL ASBILL'S GIN SHARPENER.
Our fellow citizen of thc Ridge, Dr. L.
M. Asblll, liad on exhibition a Gin Sharp
ener of his own invention, lt attracted
uni versa] attention among cotton men,
and WOK wi;!i one voice pronounced a
perfect success and a wonderful labor
saver. Col. Frederick, of Orangeburg,
one ol' the most intelligent and practical
men in our country, told us if the inven
tion were his he would not hike $?00,000
for the patent This machine sharpens a
fifty saw Oin easily and thoroughly in
three hours. Dr. Asbill ls applying for
a patent. The cost of his Sharpener, ho
informed us, would be probably from
$20 to $30.
Two NEW VARIETIES OF COTTON.
A magnificent stalk of cotton attract
ed the attention of eyory ono on entering
thc Agricultural Hall. It is claimed'as
an entirely new variety by thc producer, ;
Mr. A. C. Smith of Fayetteville, N. C.,
and is called the Twin and Triple Boll
Cotton. We will give Mr. Smith's own I
description of it in a"future number of
the Advertiser. And at the other end of
tho Hall was to be seen another new va
riety of cotton, equally remarkable,'tho
stalk being without b anches, and the
bolls forming in clusters nil along the
straight main stalk This cotton,.which
is destined to lie extremely nought af

MRS. BACH MA N'S PILTTRKS.
The collection of paintings and draw
ings was small hut ?rood. The gems de
cidedly, in oun/pinion, were two small
son-views in oil by Mrs. Baconian of Co.'
lunibia This lady is a native of Col uni
bia-formerly Miss Fisher. Miss Orch-.
ard, of Columbia, also exhibits such tal
ent in painting and portrait taking, as
should at once impel Iver to seek thc
teaching and guidance of a great master.
Miss SIMS'S SCTH.PTURE.
A cameo pin and earrings carved, with
penknife and needle, by Miss? Addie j
Sims, of Pacolet, Spartanburg District,
and a figure of Mephistophiles (from cor
tain illustrations of Goethe's Faust) cut
in soap-stone, were without doubt, the
most remarkable specimens of native
and natural talent to be seen at this Fair.
If Miss Sims lived at the North, fame
and fortune would be hers in a couple of
years-that is If she desired these. We
would wager a good deal that Miss Roa
mer, Miss Lander, Miss Lewis and Vin
ni? Ream did not in their beginning days
do such wonderful things as Misa Sims'

" WK HAVE YET A HOME TO ADORN AND

lj' admired-full o'* sound :. sense and'
practical patriotism. , He. said "T^mpand' |

tho results of the conflict are accepted,
and thore is a feeling without which
there can be no healthy progress in agri-1
oulture-that we have yet a. home to'
adorn and a country to livo for."
CHARLESTON'S INVITATION.
Charleston sent an official invitation to
the Association, through Major Edward
Willis, to inaugurate an annual fair in
Charleston in addition to the one given
each year at Columbia, the South Caro
lina Institute tendering the use of thoir
fine grounds and buildings. Upon this
point we have not learned the ultimate
determination of the Association, but, if |
wo mistake not, it is understood that thc
State Society will give an exhibition in
Charleston in May next.
THE SOUTH CAROLINA CLUB BALL.
The annual ball and supper of this re
fined and spirited Club carno off on Wed
nesday evening nt the Nickerson House,
and was a most brilliant and enjoyable
affair. The crowd was great/the costumes
splendid, the dancing beautiful and ani
mated, the supper royal and profuse.
We copy a paragraph from the Columbia
correspondence of the Charleston News :
The dress of the ladies and their beau
ty and exquisite dancing descrvo moro
extended notice than the time allows us
to give them. Among tho many who are
particularly noticeable were Mrs. Gener
al M. C. Butler. Mrs. Judge Bacon, of
this city, Mrs Miles, of Abbeville, and
Mrs. Colonel R. M. Sims, of Union. .The j
two first named are sisters, and daughters
of Governor Pickens. Tho beauty and
elegance of tho younger ladies, in years'
if not in spirit, who added to the interest
and charm of the occasion,. were Miss,
Fv-, of Sumter, who was conceded by
all, her own sex included, to be the charm
of thc evening. She was charmingly at
tired in white silk most bewitchingly
trimmed and-adorned. Miss W-, the
niece of a distinguished judgo of the
State, who figured honorably in the his
tory of ir., was concedod to be the most
elegant dancer of tho evenings. ^ho was
beautifully dressed in a white silk tulle,
tastefully ornamented with green. The
graceful*dancing of Miss Jr--, of Cam
den, was admired' by all.'; Tho wreath
of beautv fell bv common consent at the
feet pf, Miss R. C. C-r-, of Abbeville.
Tho 3'oung ladies here spoken of, ore
Miss Richardson, of Sumter ;' Miss Wig
fall, of Kdgeliold ; Miss Jordan, of Cam
den ; and Miss Rebecca Connor, of Cokes
bury.
THE MONUMENTAL BAZAAR.
Again this year tho ladies of the Mon
umental Association li eld a Bazaar in a
wing of the main Fair Building. This
Bazaar has become perhaps the most at
tractive feature of the Fair. The ladies
manage it decidedly well. They sell ev
erything in the world that is good to eat.
Tliey receive an enormous patronage
And in addition to the Bazaar, they gave
two amateur concerts which were nu
merously attended and brilliantly suc
cessful. We heard that they would prob
ably clear a thousand dollars.
ROSE AND HARKY WATKINS.
Do Roso and Harry Watkins belong
legitimately to the Fair? Perhaps not.
But, at all events, they belong to South
Carolina now, and no doubt they will in
future form the most delightful feature
of all our great fairs .aiul-KafcherininK
.Kcrs tsr^:u:.%uciovcii members of
the theatrical profession played in Co
lumbia during tho Fair to crowded and
enthusiastic houses. They won tho Der
by Farm at Aiken, as will bc remember
od, and there is now their hoiue. Thoy
have moved their furniture thither, and
are now running a farm .' Imagine Rose
and Harry Watkins running a farm ! It
sounds funny-but then they are people
who do well whatever they attempt.
And if they are delightful on the stage,
they are still more delightful off it. Mrs.
Watkins is a lady who will he admired
and beloved, in private no loss than in
public, wherever she may sot up her
reat.. Rose and Harry arc now our Ai
ken neighbors ; and you may be sure
they will always vote thc Conservative
ticket, and bo found just exactly.where
they ought to bo. And they are playing
in Augusta at present. And before they
die they arc coming to sve their Edge
lield neighbors und piny u piece for them.
And then-but can you conceive ot any
thing more profoundly delightful ?
