The attendance yes t ejdar w a j j": 'litef. eo crowd last year. Pecuniarily, it is a dangerous business to bold fairs this year and bat few counties have possessed the courage necessary to make the attempt. Gibson county, however, published a premium list qaite early in the spring, and the Board of Managers thought that it would have a bad effect on future exhibitions, if they recalled the premium list for this season. Quite likely they were right. When all the causes which combine to make enterprises of this kind failures this year are considered, we think tbe attendance yesterday was unexpectedly large. We were quite agreeably die appointed. A stroll through tbe various halls and by the cattle and horse stalls showed that the minds of the people are engrossed by other topics, than how to made the best display of their industry and skill. Tbe articles on exhibition were most excellent in quality but exceedingly limited in quantity. The display of grain was very fine, aud pumpkins, potatoes (Irish and sweet, apples, (green and dried) squashes, &c, were there in excellent appearance. The varieties wer good and much pains appeared to have been token in growing them to the greatest perfection. The ladies' display of table comforts vanned fruiss, jellies, and preserves though not as extensive as that of last year, ... ....... ... .7 . wonid do creait to tne great majority ol ' county fairs in prosperous times of peace The ladies of Gibson, we feel impelled to say, possess superior skill as housewives.The dainties exhibited by them last year ' and this, prove their skill and taste beyond ' a peradventure. i ' There was but little stock on the ground that we conld discover. There were a few cattie very good ones--and some horses not very well calculated to attract attention or excite admiration. The war horse of Job w-j !. iatarf ut ua me rairground yesterday, so far as we could discover. Tbe greater part of the day was taken up in the contest for the premiums awarded for fast trotting and pacing. The premium for fast trotting was awarded to

The Latest War Xcwa, All regains quiet at and around Washisgton. I Balloon reconnoisaances show that the main body of tbe rebels is at Fairfax Oouat House. There are do signs of offensive movements, and it is thought that none are immediately contemplated by either side. Tbe strength of tbe rebels is computed to be 200,000. It is said that Johnston and Smith are anxious for active operations, but that Beauregard is more cautious. We hare important information by way of Washington concerning the Bermuda, which so recently ran the blockade and entered Savannah. She is an iron-clad i vessel cf fifteen hundred tuns burden ; sail- j Ing from Liverpool on the 18th of August, she reached Savanush on the 10th of September. Her cargo contained 18 rifled cannon of 32 and 42 pounds ; 2 Lancaster ; guns of 168 pounds weight; powder, shot and shells for this ordnance ; 6,500 Enfield rifles; from 200,000 to 300,000 cartridges, 6,000 pairs of army shoes ; 20,000 blankets; 180 barrels of gunpowder; a large quantity 1 Of morphine, quinine, and other medica' stores. The cargo cost $1,000,000. The vessel i.- now fitting ont as a pirate, to pray ; on tbe returning California steamers. It is said that Commander Tot tea is to have charge of her ; also, that two more ironelad steam frigates are expected at Savannah J from ringiana oy tne i-tti or the present 1 .-a .... . . month. Tbe lateBt intelligence from Gen. Price states that he is moving as rapidly as possible toward tbe Arkansas line, and that Geo. Fremont will follow bim closely, intending to give him battle wherever he can find him. ———<>——— ——>By the arrival of the Mattie Cook from Paducah, we learn that four of our pickets, two of them members of the 11th Indiana, and two of an Illinois Regiment, were shot at their posts last Thursday morning. They were stationed four miles from Paducah, and were probably shot by Kentucky secessionists, who are lurking in the vicinity.

A dispatch received inhis city yesterday, from Indianapolis from the Beilefontalne road, refuses, upon any terms, to take 200 hogsheads of tobacco, now stored in this city. It must be remembered that the New York & Erie and other canals and the lakes are also engaged heavily in the carrying tradeThese w!U soon be closed, and then the capacity of the East and West railroads will be found totally inadequate for the transportation of Eastern bound freights. The opening of the Mississippi river is not to be looked for, for several months to come, and in the meantime it is the duty of j the Government speediiy to reopen the Bal- j timore & Ohio railroad This is due to the i West Without this road tbe products of

Richard Owen. Important from Europe. From dispatches in to-day's Jocrsal, it will be seen that tbe French, English and Spanish Governments have decided to "intervene" in the affairs of Mexico, and that fleets titift troops wiil leave immediately for the Gulf i airy out the purposes of thi3 alliance.

Major General Smith, it will be remembered, commands at this point. In a speech lately made in flat tfordf hire by Sir E. Bulwer Lytton, he took the ground that tbe disruption of the U. S. has been liable any time these twenty years, not owing to the form of government, nor the institutions of the country, but its vast; extent.

<From the Cincinnati Price Current, October 2>. Financial and Commercial Summary for the Past Week.

Financial and Commercial Summary for the Past Week. The demand notes just issued by the disbursing agents of the Government in this city, have increased the volume of currency, and consequently produced more ease in the money market, and a better feeling generally. These notes are being anxiously sought after, and the feeling of security associated with them in the public mind, has given them a general and rapid dispersion among the people, who feel as secure in holding them as if they were gold. There will be but few of them returned for redemption, and but little use made of them in the way of exchange, as the supply of exchange making from bills drawn against produce is rather in excess of the demand, so that bank notes, and much less treasury notes, are not and will not for some time be used in making it. The offerings of first class paper are light, and it is in demand at 10@ 12 per cent. The demand for exchange has been moderate, and the market ruled steady throughout the week, closing firm at the following rates, which are the same current for some time. We quote: Buying. Selling.

In relation to erasures, he would observe that it is v.sry difficult to convince a buyer, or the Government, that tbe erasure was not made to cover a fraud. In using note for duties, the importer is required to indorse them, the-tby gnaranteeing all indorsements. Dealers in law are liable it tney pass any Kind ol forgery or irregularity through their hands; hence preference is given to notes with the payre's name only on the back. CJ 1 Many ot tbe cupon treasury notes have no name filled tn on tbe face. In snch case it is better not to Gil in any name, for they are tbe most desire.ble notes in circulation. The weather h.s been damp and sultry during the greater part of the week, the I temperature being np to 7b, but e heavy ram Saturday bus oetu followed with a cool and bracing temperature and frost at Bight. Tbe difficulty experienced in making shipments to the East in the fore part of tbe week, checked the demand for Agar very decidedly, bat holders did not press their stocks on tbe market, and hence full prices were realized ; there was some speculative j demand, and toward tbe close an outlet by : river to Pittsburg, and thence by railroad i to Philadelphia was found, and large ahipi menu made. Tbe exports for the week reached 2 1,090 barrels. Prices were better j towards tbe clpae, ruling at $4 10 for j 6 2& r C1Ctra "d -""'j i and 4 30(314 40 tor fancy. Tbe demand ! wd3 cbjt for iuperfin8. Yesterday, under , the favorable news from New York and England, the market was heavy, but the supply being very light, full rates were realised, though at tbe close tbey were nominal. The receipts of wheat have been much lighter the past than the previous week, and tne higher grades were in good demand, and prices of prime to choice red and white advaaced early in the week 2c per bushel, t nuar. a, rS anA aa,' and closed firm at 90c for white. The supply of corn is not quite equal to the demandand prices advanced to 29e. Oats have advanced to 26c with a demand greater than the supply.

We noticed samples of Syracuse solar alum on the Market, Monday and yesterday, with sales at Si 80 per bbl of 280 lbs. We hear of no movement in foreign. Tbe latest advices from England and France are unfavorable for breadstuff's ; prices were generally lower in the English and French market. This however indicates nothing more than a large supply from abroad, and might have been expected. We have private letters from the British Isles, which leave no doubt that there is a partial failure of all tbe crops, wheat, potatoes, oats and barley. The potatoes were rotting badly, and in Ireland it Is teared the scarcity of food will be uearly as bad as it was in 1847.

When 'the President issued his first call to tbe loyal States tor help, the Government was unjirovided with most, if not all, the articles necessary to the comfort aad health of soldiers W the camp and the field. The ; women of Indiana were appealed to, and they supplied the deficiency in our Stale with a generous alacrity that entitles them ' to tbe gratitude of tbe nation. Tfcv appTOach of winter makes ft necessary to appeal to them again. Our volunteers, already suffering iruin exposure, against which j they axe very .-.Adequately protected, wiil soon be eorur :led to endure the utmost ' severity of winter and multiplied dangers! of disease. T.'.e Government is doing all j that can be d ue for them, but when all is done they must still lack many of the com forts which men In ordinary pursuits enjoy, i and which soldiers need above all others Many article of clothing that, to men with I houses over their heads and warm fires alj ways near, are hardly more than a luxury, j to men with no protection but a tent, no bed bat tbe ground, and whose duty must j be performed under the uaabated rigor of j winter, are absolute necessaries. They may ; save many lives that will surely bo lost without them. These, the patriotic women of Indiana, it is hoped, will supply. An additional blanket 'o evurr snan in oar army will preserve hundreds to the country and to their fax;': .6' Two or three ; pairs of good strong soc. , '.II be invaluaj ble to men who must often march all day in i the scow, and without them must lie down with cold and benumbed feet on tbe frozen ground. Good woolen gloves or mittens I will protect their bands in marching, and j in handling their arms, and, while adding j greatly to their comfort, will materially in- : j crease their efficiency. Woolen drawers ; i and shirts, too, are a necessity to men ex- j posed to such vicissitudes of weather as sol- ; diers. All these articles the Indiana volun- 1 j teers ought to have cow, and must before ' I winter sets in, if we would protect them j : from exposure and disease that may be j j averted by this timely preparation.
