Mrs. Hughes, No. 4 Arcade has just re ceived a new and fnll stock of millinery mer- chahdile, and is prepared to meet the wants of every ono who is in need of anything in hor line. Hon. Allen C.

T o -D ay ’ b P apeb —We need make no apol- ©gy, we trust, for the amount of space we give to-day to the early report of the battles before Sedan, at the surrender of tho Frenoh Emperor and McMahon’s army. It is a sub ject in which our readers are so generally in terested, that we presume they prefer it to tamer subjects, though nearer homo. T he F aib .—The opening this morning is brilliant, and the Fifty-Third Annual Show promises to be the largest and most success ful on record. There were over 800 entries on tha_Secretary’s books, last evening. The The Professor has won the title df the “ genius whp^ides upon the storm,\ and un less the ^laments above conspire against tho forces on earth, will afford the thousands who will Hook here, tho pleasure of witnessing one of the grandest sights imaginable. He always goes up and comes down handsomely, and so outist the Societies-who engffge him asXo the litter. The risk he runs is a greaUone, oncb yet h e tells us he steps into his air carriage with as firm a sense of safety as into a radlrad car. It would not bq so were it not that twelve yeara-ef hard study has taught him the perfection to whioh the knowledge can .be carried. The fish pond is complete, the finny tribe enjoyihg their vacation to the utmost. Dr. Trowbridge’s collection of stuffed birds and animals is attracting the attention of tttxid ermi8ts, the famous white dear presiding over tho lot. There is a large and good show of swine— one entry being for 2f> individual porker. The purses for 3 year old and four year old colts are filled, and a full display is inevita ble. The show of fruit does the county credit —one exhibitor showing mine varieties of plums. There is a very fine calf from Malone, only 15 months old, which weighs 1260 lbs. He will no doubt get the red flag and au honora ble discharge as well as a free pass home. W D Wilson makes display of iron. \rorJc*oTbi* own manufacture. Charlie Hart is on hand with an elegant di play from his photographic rooms, and i« slso ready with fine work from his gall'ery. Messrs A Tubbs & Son exhibit one of the finest cases of furs with their hats and caph we oversaw. Davis <fe Patterson also •lairu something rich in that line. \V AauiNQToy H a ll-^LastEveninq —There- wns a good auditnce and the play gave gen eral satisfaction—more we think than on the opening. Everything seemed to work smooth er,and the actors seemed better adapted- for their places. The comedy of the “Factory (Wrl \ was first presented, with Mr Ryder as Jasper Plum, Mr Miller as Sir Arthur Las- cello, Mr Mulligan and Mr Street as Stephen and Frederick Plum, Mr Herndon as Toby Twinkle, Mrs Herndon as Martha Gibbs the Factory Girl, Mrs Lawrence as Lady Leather- brldge, and Mrs Miller aa Lady Valeria. It was a love story, of course,—a play would n’t be a play otherwise, and thar# waa till the jealousy, nxalry, heartache and head ache that are said to moke up such a story, But on the whole the love making, rtrtnmlring, cporations, misunderstandings and reconcil iations were dono very well except for want of the sincerity whion ought to make the “real thing” a Buccesss. We don't exactly like tho idea bf Mrs So-and-so falling in love with Mr So-and-so promiscuously. Mr. Kyder acted exoellently an aristocratic gentleman of influence; Mr Mnlligin threw enough emphasis and fire into his acting to net Hamlet and have some left; Mrs Herndon was'an acceptable Martha, and Mr Herndon was thAindisponsible fun and life of tho play. Everybody liked him and oouldn’t help it. It is unnecessary to stato that everybody was happy a t last, unleas we except Sir Arthur who ftot in a bad habit of making love to more than one at a time. Tho evening concluded witn the farce of the 4 ‘Spectre Bridegroom, or a Ghost in Spite of himself,” Mr Herndon again distinguished himself as Diggory. Mr Miller 4‘did’’ Nick* ademuB, the ghost, very well, especially when La v im consented to become Mrs Ghost Tho play ploased welL 44 Time Tries All ” and “ Dead Shot\ to night.

The streets were lively at an early hour with a general tenden cy on the part of everybody toward the Fair Oroudds. Band reported for duty on the Square in one of its moBt enthusiastic “ fan. tasias,” the 35th Regiment early took the tented field, and marched on the fortress of the Agricultural Society in great force, sweep ing everything before it, finding inspiration no doubt from the latest news from Prussia; Jonathan and Jernsha, hand in hand, com menced to share the three days of bliss ; father and mother and the children came in the big wagon ; the procession of porkers, pumpkins and peaceful pioneers of potato patches was imposing and demonstrative. Late last night the maroh of the bovines and eqnines commenced, bonnd for tho Fair Ground nnd for the first prize, and no sur render. The buildings on the ground are in fine condition and are receiving1 large consign ments from the whole county. The different Halls present a busy speotacle, everything is coming and seeking it* proper place of abode, where the eyes of the thousands may gaze admiringly upon them. Fine horses and cattle, • in the display of which Jefferson oounty admits no superior and challenges an equal, are arriving con- constantly and will make the finest show ever Men here or at any county Fair.\ The balloon 'Atlantic' iB promptly at hand with its genial master, Prof. H.

For salo by Sterling <fc Mosher. Wo have read this book thoroughly onoe, and we. shonld delight to read it again before seeking with our pen to point out tho good one is sure to find in it. The first chapters romind the reader of Dicken’s style of writ ing, and before the book is finished the spar kle of Viotor Hugo seems to us * plaiuly visi ble, two ideas which render a second reading more than probable. The story is laid in Scotland, and addition al interest is lent to it from the fact that the author has made good use of his opportunity to bring into hia work a great deal of the charming Scotch brogue, whioh, after becom ing very soon understood, proves a very plea sant accompaniment. T i Robert Falconer, to whom the reader is in troduced at onoe, is a pure minded, whole- souled, honest boy, living under the striot guardianship of one of the strictest of grand mothers, to whom a smile is a sin and a strain of music is still worse, who fears her Robert is oontinually going down, down, down, as ho continues to come out into life from tlio notions of boyhood. ' Of his father ahd mother he knew nothing, save to understand that the former is not with him and that the latter is dead. A report comes at last that his father died in India, whioh ia believad by every one but him. He makes it his speoial work to disbo- liove it, and resolves that the thought that ho Bhail find him, see him and know him shall be to him an aim in life. He is educated unde; the severest form of Scottish theology,- seems to be tormented constantly with doubts, from whioh his soul sometimes sadly despairing struggles to he freo. All manner of questions arise before him ; his despair sometimes almost makes him deny his God ; his arguments with his grandmother seem to confuse both himself as well as her, he cannot believe that tha wiok- ed are always to be punished: fearing as he is given to understand, that his father, if doad or alive, is among tho lost. Bnt he holds steadfast, and the beat testi mony that we can offer as to the general char acter of the boy is to repeat his imagined prayer if he succeeded in reaching Heaven : , “ Weel, if I win in there, the verra first nicht I sit doon wi' the lave o’ them, I'm Raein' to rise np an' say—that is if the Hais- ter at the heid o' the table diana’ bid me sit doon—an' say : ‘ Brither® an’ sisters, the hail ye, hearken to me for ao minute; an' 0, Lord 1 if I say wrong, just tak' the speech frae me, an’ 111 sit doon dumb\ an' robukit. We’ro a ’ here by grace and no by merit, sate His, as ye a' ken better nor I can tell ye, for ye hao been longer here nor me. But its juBt rnggin an' rivin' at my hert to think o' them 'at's doon there. Maybe y e can hear them. I canna. Noo, we hae nae merit, an’ what for are we here an' thom there? But we're washed clean and~lhnooent noo; and noo whan there'B no wyte lying upo' oursels, it seemsl to me that we mioht beir some o' the sina O’ them 'at ha ower mony. I call upo' ilk ane o' ye ’at has a frian' or a neebor doon yonner to rise np and taste nor bite nor sap mair till we gong np a' thagither to the fut o' the throne, an1 pray the Lord to lat's gang an' da as the .Maiater did afore's, an' beir their griefs, an’ carry their sorrows doon to holl there; if it may be that they may repent an’ get remission o' their sins, an' come up here wi' ns a t the lang last, agd Bit doon wi' 's at this table, a’ thron' the merits o' oor Savior Joans Christ, at ths heid o' the tabla there.

Of him Robert learns to play his fiddle which he found in the garret, but which hia grandmother destroys at last. It is Robert who points the dying shoemaker tha way to God, and the chapter of the old man's death is one of the most ex cellent in ;he book. After Robert himself, the finest character ia his dying friend, Eria Ericson. It is this friend that helps Robert to make dark things light, by the very fact that ho too in trouble saw donbta arise, yet ever longing to believe. Tho story of his life awakens mingled feel ings of admiration and sympathy. “ In memoriam ' of this excellent charaoter, the anthor gives a chapter of Erie's poems, which by. thia.dight..in=. troduetion: \ I add a chapter of sonnots gathered from his papers, almost desiring BY TELEGRAPH. MORNING REPORT. THE WAR EUROPE., ■ V l i o S u r r e n d e r . i New Y o rk. 7 — D r. Kusscl writes from Sedan , the 3 d , ns follows; , At 11:31) th e nrticlcs of capitulation were signed a s agreed upon hy General Wympfen a n d Gen. VonNolke nnd I be lieve Count Bismarck took part in the de liberations. Tho terms are lhe garrison and th e army of Sedan to surrender as prisoners of war, to bo aent into Germany and th e officers to be liberated on parole not.to serve again during the war. All horses, guns a n d munitions of war to be given up. The Emperor's detention in Germany w astmderstood to be part of the stipula tion. About 3 o’clock th e King with his body guard and escort o f cuirassiers attended by the Crown Prince and staff of General officers proceeded t o the chateau ouraide of Sedan, a n d received the Emperor, who came with h is personal followers and staff i.n chargo qf a n sscort, which was ranged on the other side o f the avenua. facing the cuirassiers. ' The. King and his captive retired into the glass knusc of one of the saloons of the drawing room floor, and thay could be seen by. tke ouAsj.de,jmd-Cflgaged o n au aurneat dialogua. After the interview with the King, tha Emperor had a few moments conversation with t h e Crown Prince, during which he was much agitated when alluding to the manner o fthe King. His great anxiety seemed not t o he exhibited to hisown sol diers. The result waa, however, that His Majesty, wishing to avoid mischief, was exposed to a great humilation for his plans had to be altered to avoid Sckan, and thua he had to pass thro' the Prus sian a rm v. oners, oy more who ■ have been taken at Scdam - Thero was actual danger o f blood shed this morning, when the prisoners be gan to move out of town. Happily the officers in- command showed admirable tact and ,ftrmnessr—French-kept their old authority by not strain in f 1’! he cord too tight, nnd the Germans by not appearing too much on the scene. ' Sedan is presenting the w ildcst scene of confusion which you can imagine. The narrow streets deep with mud, tor we have had a heavy rain to-day, soldiers half drunk, houses burned, and dead bodies lying everywhere. There are thousands of wounded men to be carred for. Loss among the Erench ig superior officers is something dreadful. You a sk wbat is to be our next move. I say to P a r ii; so say the men; ao sayB the whole voice of pub lic rumor ahd public opinion of the Ger man armies. To Paris, unless the French will yield up Strasbourg and Metz and pay war expenses. Count Bismarck would bo content with less but tho German pcoplo demand hard terms, and the German peo ple must be obeyed.
