The erec;on of buildings and other improve ments are going forward rapid ty on our Fair Grourds. A beautiful track for tlie exercise of blooded stock has Pilready been constructed. The Grounds themselves taken in connection with the surrounding scenery are not excelled by any in the Uni od Siates. The ground on which the whole is locvref5 is peifectly level, while the en c'losuie is bounded on one side by the Railroad a id on the other by the majestic Neuse, as hand so .ne a sheet of water as eye could wish to rest on. We do trust that we 6hall have some aquatic sports connected with the Fair. It is a beautiful place for it, and then it would add much to the other alt racl ions, We liave already made appeal after appeal to our Newbern and Craven friends in behalf of our Fair, and now we desire to say a few words to the people of the adjoining counties. It never was intended o.' desired that this should be considered exclusively p. Craven county en terprise. We want Carteret, Jones, Hyde, Beau fort, Lenoir, "Wayne, Green, Onslow, and all other counties that are near enough, to co-operate with tTYri i t trri Tr " t f a ITffiion Fair: and desire I.-, itrtheylfas well iiFueTrwshonld be beneht- ed, and fbey will be benefitted if they wi'l take lold crtlie vOik and assist us in giving it that success which the enterprise deserves. We trust that the people of all the. adjoining counties will rot only come up 'o the Fair, but we want them to bring something for Exhibition. Don't mat ter what it is bring the best you have got or can produce, whether agricultural product, specimen of mech anical skill, or mineral. Bring something. All the friends of the Fair will bear in mind that there is to be another meeting at the Court House to morrow night, and it is desi ed that Caere be a large attendance.

L tlie contrary, main- XiCffer from Prof. Eibumi. Below we give, a letter from the State Geolo gist, Prof. Emmons, descriptive ot a portion of Western North Carolina: SOUTH-WESTERN COUNTIES OF N C. LtV.tr from Prof. Emmons to the Editors of the Franklin N.' C. Observer. Sirs It seems to the writer, that the question relative to the Mineral and Asricnltural resources of the south-western counties is, what are the pro babilities of the future in these respects, and not what they are now ; for in a country where the inducements for development and improvement are limited, it cannot be expected that remarkaDie and inviting prospects can be shown immediately upon the surface. But the mining and agricul tural interests are slowly developed, and it is only upon and by encouragements which markets and Erofits-hold out that men are induced to act; and ence, when market facilities are provided, an en tire change in the feelings of a community take oHee wliici result in entemrize which either ! bring: to lijrlii mineral resources, or lead to a sys- ; tema'tiTJ anOja proniable hrisoaiidry. Ilf lit 80 uy n-western counties, agriculture nas to contend with the disadvantages of distant mar kets, where intercourse is diaicult and expensive : and hence, the inducements to labor enesgetically for large crops are too small to move a community, though individual exe; tions in a few instances are met with which have resulted in proving ihe capa city of the soil for the production of great crops. When all things are taken into consideration, which affect the capacity of the soil, climate, com position and depth, few sections can compare with the south-western counties of North Carolina. It is true it is studded with mountains, but they are clothed with a great depth of soil, and bear the finest and most valuable forests of hard and soft woods or timbers 'n the world. Noihing sur prises the traveller more than the extreme depth of the soil and the massive timber tree which it supports, from the valley to the summit othe Balsam and Nantahala mountains. But the writer does not propose to speak par ticularly of the agricultural interests now, neither indeed upon the mineral interests, except in a few Earticulars. Of the mineral interests, they may e divided into two branches of industry. 1st, the interest connected with the production of metals. 2d, that connected with and existing in the rocks proper. Of the western counties which are destined to furnish metallic material, Jackson county is rich in Copper, while Macon and Chero kee will produce the most iron. The Savannah copper-mines of the Cowee mountain, those of the Collowhee and Way-ye-hut-te are sufficiently developed to enable the miner to base a safe opinion and entertain the expectation they are destined to become profitable mines, provided a way to market is opened. Ihe ha?matitic iron ores of the Nantahala, are certainly inexhaustible beds, whose character for goodness are not exceeded by the best ores of Salisbury, Ci., which has long been celebrated for its iron. Of the rocks of these counties we may feel as sured of the existence of fine marble, suitable for statuary and oilier purposes for which marble are employed. The most important variety is the clear, flesh colored marfde of Nantahala, which is really unique tor the delicacy ot its tints. Ihe same region turnislies also, hne roonng slates of a blue color. Plates of slate may be ob tained, five and six feet in length and two feet wide It splits with ease and with a perfect plan? irtTTjiflf If fiiP.

At a meeting held at the Executive office, in this City, on Saturday last, the Trustees of the University resolved to sub scribe one hundred thousand dollars to the Bank of North Carolina the ballance of the amount reserved by the charter for the Universit y .

He is in Paris, where he had his spinal mprrow taken out, scraped, soaked in oil and replaced, his muscular membranes ope rated upon, his nerves taken out, aired and re placed, and is in a fair way of recovery.

The Herald's foreign re- Eort, says that the Great Eastern had entered the tondon custom house for New York city. No signs of the Persia. 1- 1 i 1 ! FITDAY MOFN'NG, SEPTEMBER 16, 1359. The New. There is an effort, supported by the Herald, on foot in New York to abolish, virtually, the Sab- both and all its wholesome ordinances. A pub lic meeting has been called for some locality in the Bowery. We are glad to see that it is principally foreigners who are engaged in it. We hope the day will never come when American born citizens will cease to " Remember the Sab both day, to keep it holy." Meantime there is a movement on foot in Phila delphia led by the clergy to stop the running of city cars and to suppress other secular employ ments on the Sabboth, as far as possible. The move is a commendable one. Over ten thousand muskets besides other im plements o'yaa---ve been shipped from New YosV tp Mg3"i the lastVvear. No winder iniexicans are ans are a filthy, greasy set they 'forget all the nobler aspirations of man's nature for revolutions. Mrs. Cunningham of Burdell and bogus baby notoriety has turned up again. She ocoupies a respectable looking brick house "up town," next door to the elegant residence of Mr. Bryant, ediur of the New York Post. A Sunday paper says : " The town residence of Mr. Bryant is East 16th st., near Second avenue, and in the house adjoin ing, towards Third avenue, Mrs. Cunningham has taken up her abode. The four-story brown stone front, with massive steps and impressive bow windows is Mr. Bryant's house; exteriorally.and the interior arrangements it havinsr been built to his own order are doubtless in beautiful har mony with his cultivated and exquisite tastes. A plain two-story brick house is that occupied by xurs. uunningnam, one ot tne three similar con tiguous houses, built several years ago, which have not yet given way to the up-town encroach ment of palatial residences. But proximity to such a neighbor, as may be supposed, was not al together relished by Mr. Bryant, as soon as the fact became known to him. He has used every decent means in his power to procure her eject ment by the landlord but without success. Mrs. Cunningham pays her rent regularly. The land- tutu as is um case wnn an lauaioras has a high appreciation of rent paying tenants. The com plaints of the sorrowing Mr. Bryant have proved impotent alongside of Mrs. Cunningham's rent paying punctually. Mrs. Cunningham still re mains. Mr. Bryant still complains. It is likely that Mrs. Cunningham will continue her sojourn in 16th street. It is not unlikely that. Mr. Bryant will continue to pour his compliants upon the pitiless ears of the obdurate landlord. What cannot be cured must be endured. Mrs. Cunningham is in her new abode, and Mr. Bryant is in for it. A lively imagination, the endow ment of the poetical, is Mr. Bryant's. With such an imagination, it can hardly be supposed that the author of Thanatopsis can lie down to pleasant dreams,' at the thought that a brick wall only a few inches thick intervenes between him and the alleged principal in the Bond street tragedy.

We will notice it at some length in a day or two. The new York Tribune is full 01 laudations of the Republican candidates for State officers just nominated at Syracuse. A proposition to invite tlje Great Eastern to vis it the port of Norfolk, and to extend to her offi cers the hospitalhy of the city was recently made before the Council Board of that city, and voted down. , There was a great military display in Baltimore on Monday last, it being the anniversary of the battle of North Point. The day was spent in parade, speeches, feasting, &c. Besides the mil itary belonging to the city some companies were present from other cities. All went off well.

The A-sheville News which paper says it has not the pleasure of an exchange with the Progress, though we sent the Progress to the News for sev eral months when we first started without getting the News in exchange, in copying from the Wil mington Journal some lemarks of ours not on'y does us injustice but misrepresents us. The fol lowing remarks made by us some time ago are co pied into the News : 'The old liners those who have been bred in the democratic party are not willing to see those who hare stood by the colors throuarh ffood and evil repprt sacrificed or thrust aside for renegade whigs ur ex-know nothings. In plain English, a large pftion of the democracy, outside of the last Legislature, never have been able to see why such men as Gov. Reid and W. W. Holden, who have stood by the party for twenty years, and who dtijSt'tS ir 0 other two men to erive ituf V.should b set; aside f gmarrrri long a!$;he opposition could give him a place, and who only came to the democratic party to bargain for place. But March, 1861, will see his star go ici nuu :a ii"iiii.si. lue party as .Upon this the News comments at some length, closing as follows : " Mr. Holden has always been regarded in this section as friendly to the promotion of Mr. Cline- iijriu. ami. iiuiuru auimj, ms services 10 me party are certainly acknowledged and appreciated in this section of the State, and we entertain a better opinion of him and Gov. Reid than to sup pose, as the Progress insinuates, that they and their friends failed to support the Democratic can didates in the recent election, because neither of them Ijad been promoted to the position now oc cupied by Mr. Clingman.. Is it true, as asserted by the Progress, that the " old liners " of the Dem ocraticarty refused to vote with the party in the recent election because of Mr. Clingman's elec tion to the Senate ? Is that the cause of Dr. Shaw's defeat in the 1st District? Was it the cause of Mr. Scales' defeat in the 6th District? Did this feeling produce the result in Mr. Gilmer's Dis trict and increase his majority more than a thou sand votes. Any one who will look at the vote in these Districts who has sense enoueh to un derstand the points in a political campaign will see at once tnatthe ciiarge 01 the Progress against Mr. Holden and Gov. Reid and their friends, that they deserted the Democratic party in the late election because ot Mr. Clingman s promotion to the Senate, is a silly calumny. ' In the beginning the editor of the News says : " We are not positively certain what may be the politics of the Progress." We will enlighten you, Mr. News. The editor of the Progress is upwards of 30 years of age and never voted against a regu lar democratic nominee in his life for any office ; he never voted for a know nothing or a man who had been one, if he knew it, and never will. He has always opposed and always will oppose any man of any party who deserts the principles to which he has adhered and which he has advoca ted for years to join the dominant party that he may get office. Can you present as good a politi- cai.recor" . i -TI the rtinMfw; cTranrcl f m,,,.i. and their friends with failing to support the democratic candidates in the recent election on account of the promotion of Mr. Clingman is a calumny we prefer a mild er language but it is a mistake, an incorrect statement. We know that Messrs. Reid and Holden have always been true to party organiza tion ;. but we did say, and say again, that the democratic people have never been able to realize why it was that new converts renegades if you please should be elevated over veterans in the cause, and if this course of promoting new con verts to the faith, (whose motives in coming over somehow the people will question,) and ex-know nothings, in preference to those who have borne their part in the heated conflict for many long years, be persisted in, the decayed energies and wasted ability which will be presented by the democratic party in North Carolina in a few years will bring not only the editor of the News to his senses, hut will cause many other leaders of the party to kee and regret the folly of the course they have puipued. As to the complexion of the Progress, Mr. News, it is not a political paper, if yon deem it nepessa ry to be solely in the service of any one political organization to be considered such, and we sup pose you do. It claims to be independent in all things and neutral in nothing, and claims the privilege, and will ever exercise it, to say what ever it pleases about politicians in office or aspi rants for office. We hope this will enlighten you as to tlie individual position of the editor, and also astoihe character, politically, of the Progress, which in future, would be pleased to exchange with you.
