Tbe prospects are also fa vorable for the election of P. Noel, County Surveyor, by a small majority. I O S I S A S E On Wednesday evening of last week the steamer Stonewall caughtfirewhile on the Mississippi river, about one hundred and thirty-five miles below St. Louis, from a candle which the deck pas sengers had near some bay whilo play ing cards. There being so muoh hayloons, on board, the boat burned like tinder. The pilot ran the steamer on a gravel bar, supposing the passengers could wade ashore, but a slough at one endmorrow prevented, and it was here that most were drowned. Cout of two hundred and fifty-two passengers over two hundred were lost. CO-OPXBATIVX housekeeping is one of the sensations of the period. Its raeoess in any one desirable particular remains yet to be demonstrated. It is a kind of lasy make-shift for indoL at housekeepers—those who take no in terest in the routine of home cares, either lrom indifference or from a long ing to soar into higher atmospheres. In a sensible article in the Independent on co-operative kitchens, Mrs. Mary Clemmer Ames cries, "heaven forbid I" and says it would be better for many women now-a-days if they would imi tate their grand mothers more closely in their personal interest in their kitch ens. She adds: ••It is for the woman of tbe nineteenth eantnry to hold la her development the equal balance of physical and mental cul ture. 8he cannot do this and neglect her kitchen. No matter how far at times she maj rise above it, it will always do her gooJ to come back to it." IN connection with the numerous and terrible steambost explosions on tbeto Mississippi, it is remarked as a curious faet that, daring the put thirty years, dating back to the beginning of steam boat navigation, with but one single ex ception not a steamboat accident has occurred on the Upper Mississippi. above the Rapids, involving the loss of human life. This is doubtless du* loth* greater care exercised by thebut officers of our upperriverbeats. —*»^pa» IH an .article upon the frequency with which women are exposed to in-with sults in the ears and on tbe streets, the New York Timer suggests the lash as the most effectual remedy for the evil. Lei the vile dogs be taken tea jail or prison snd severely flogged. Nothing probably would have a more salutary effect in checking tfcese outrages. Tan report of tho Department ol Agriculture, a ayoopsis of which is published elsewhere, says tbe potato crop was "unusually good iu the West with the exception of Minnesota." The erop in this State was very large, unusually large, the only complaint being the rot caused by the wet weath er late in the season. A SNOW STORM notH which commenced oa Friday in Maine continued through Saturday. Some places twenty-eight iaehes of snow fell. Stages were leav ng Dexter on runners.

EDITOR JOURNAL Notwithstand ing tho cool, windy weather, the fair spoken of in my last, is in full blast, at the fair fttuunck Early in the morn ing tho band was drawn through the streets by four *hitc hor es and soon moved off to the grounds Tho roads from town tbtneo havo betii lined all day with horsciuou, oo horses of all possible speed, and color*, aud decora tions. I will venture the statement that a full thousand of these and mostly young men, with as many bones, have been seen to-day between my hotel and the fair grounds. Iu Kentucky a fair means one thing, in Minnesota another. In the latter it means an exhibition and competition for premiums ot horses, cattle, products •I the farm and various handiwork. In Kentucky it means chiefly and principally a show of the young men and the handsome women of the entire surrounding country. Especially of elegant bonnets, and rich silks, and the latest fashion*?, and above all bright eyes and fascinating figures. So, if I wanted to note the dress, fashion, and looks of the people, aud to do it ex actly from observation, when they could be photographed to tho best advantage, I would go to a Kentucky lair. What a country and people for hors 03 For a iutl mile from the gate,-the fences on either side of tbe pike are lined with horses, hitched to rails, stakes, apple trees and stones. One would think an army of troopers had just come iu and dismounted. What would you think to see four or five hundred ladies' "side saddles" in a row, of all sizes, shapes, workmanship and colors, waiting, oa mules, texans and stallions for their fair owners wheu the day's festivities are over Would you not say we lived in the land of Ama son a But there you would be wrong they are the handsome, the intelligent, the accomplished, the piquant and the bonoied daughters of Kentucky. They are but following tbe custom of tbe country, and the custom ot their moth ers and grand-mothers before them, And their agility and grace on tbe horse would delight, and amuse you. Ton would say unhesitatingly you never saw anything so splendid. They dart by you in twos and fours, with a swift ness that makes one hold his breath You see them coming like birds iu the air in an instant they are present with their red checks andflyingribbons, aud in another the beautiful vision has dis appeared. The very grace in which the tiny riding whips is held in the little gloved hands, is quite captivating to a sober, phlegmatic Northerner like your correspondent. Most of your readers have seen bal and I need not describe the one hero that ascends up into the blue heavens to-morrow. I learn it is ready and will go up with its aeronaut to morning at precisely ten. Thewants aerial navigator is a little, dapper fellow of about thirty, with a Freuchy acoent, and ever so polite to tbe awkward mul titude that crowd about the rara ati$. Tho' he has been asked many times how high he will go, and what way be will rake, no oae of hie mtnj interrog ators has thus far come away with any solid or useful information. Great numbers have been attracted hither by the report of the approaching ascen sion and I hope my learned little friend will succeed in making a handsome dis play of his silken vehicle in tile air, He is a veritable aeronaut, and wonone the applause of thousands by his per formance in mid air, at Lebanon, a month ago. The show of horses on the grounds to-day is said, by the best judges, not to be remarkable. And yet there are many ia. I myself have never seen a finer display. (I am speaking of what experienced horsemen say.) Tbe pacers shown are all mares ot remarkable beauty and spirit. They stand in blan kets, except when in the ring. All are led and tried by negro men, who seem have an aptitude in that line. Those ugly animals, mules, seem to command most attention. There are several here valued at four* hundred dollars each. Tbey make tbe air hideous with their braying* They are lar^e, well formed, and sleek. But their ears are just as long as those of any other animals of their kind, and their voice is anything the voice of the nightingale. 01 these outiageously ugly creatures it is nothing strange to see the prettiest hdy in the oinslo turning to her neighbor, "Isn't he a beauty or «What spirited ears!" Tbey see real excel lenoe, and what pleases the eyo. I cnuld never seethe point ttis all habit with us, after ail. We are what custom and society make us. The celebrated colt?, mentioned in my last have not ytt been placed in the ring, and I cannot speak of them a ft'iis time. I understand they come up to-morrow afternoon. My handsome ftiend, Sam, whom tho ladies all wish success in this part ot the town, is still sanguine. Tell lives in the country, and has the prestige of having a hand sortie pitcher awarded at the Hart County Fair. I a am little inclined to Sam's side become' Sam is also the owner of my Merry Belle, for whom I still hsvo a certain liking notwithstand ing the bad plight in which she know ingly and wilfully left me on a certain memorable occasion.

O S he A a a or lsee. The early frosts in some portions of the Eastsru and Middle States checked theripeningaud left the frosted fields in an immature and damaged condition but the injury is comparatively slight in extent, and limited in area, as thes whole crop has had an unusually favor able maturing season, resulting in a very gratifying amelioration of theprayer, prospects for a supply of this important staple. Yet a full crop can by no means be expected. When the harvest is over, and the local estimates are com pleted, the aggregate will atteBt a mod erate yield, amply sufficient for all thetee of the country. Had the spring wheat been equal to the winter, the whole crop would be enormous. Throughout the South, the yield is unusually large, and the quality excellent. Texas snd Mississippi are somewhat less conspicuous sharers in this improvement than the other States in that section. In Illinois, tbe coun ties reporting an increase equivalent to 10 pei ceut. or more are almost without exception in the southern part of the State, below the 40th parallel. The winter wheat regions, those claiming eight-tenths of a crop, or less, are, with or two exceptions, spring wheat counties. Indiana grows a large pro portion of winter wheat, and conse quently this year produced a much bet ter average yield than Illinois. Many of the counties return high figures. The area of cotton cultivation was inereased last-spring fully 16 per cent. More than 1,000,000 acres were added to the cultivated area. Fertilizers were liberally used iu the Atlantic States, and improved implements were, tosome extent, employed. Rarely has there been a better sea son for oats than the present, very few of the States returning a less increase than 10 per cent., and some giving 30 or 35 per cent. Theseason has boen too dry for eitb. er kind of potatoes iu the South, and on the Atlantic coast to New Yor'c, New England generally has a good crop, and it is unusually good in the West, with the exception of Minnesota. The produet of sweet potatoes is mani festly inereased. A slight increase in the aggregate number of fattening cattle, as well as in their average condition, is reported, Some of the States fail to maintain a full average, among which are New York, New Jersey, Kentucky, and Illinois.

The general appre hension of various failures in the corn crop of the more Northern States has been materially modified by the sunny weather in September, and the exemp tion from killing frosts to October 1- is40 now known, is caused by a general be lief that Secretary Boutwell will, in a very few weeks, make a grand coup, and atonce return to specie payments, thus forestalling a decision of the United States Supreme Court, which will un-Minneapolis doubtedly declare tbe legal .tender act unconstitutional, about the end of theP. year.
