There was a private meeting of the Ad ministratore yesterday ia the Mayor's par lor, for the purpose af exchanging view* relative to the budget far the oemiug your. These meetings are of almost daily oceur renoe, but are barren of results so far as the outer world ia consented. The Citiseus' Associ a t i on have not yet commenced the work of supervising the municipal accounts. When they do to it might be well to commence with the counts of the drainage commission, wherein the lawyers' fees for services comparatively worthiers, are set down at #17,000.

Wo had a call on Friday from Mrs. John Jenny Osborn, n very intelligent end worthy lady, who is acting as agent for the sale on subscription of two celebrated works, J uni us Henri Browne's "Great Metropolis, a Mir ror of New York," and Albert D. Richard son's "Beyond the Mississippi." The "Great Metropolis" ia a tolerably faithful mirror of the greatest city on the American conti nent, and in many particulars the most re markable one in the world. The work ia arranged in chapters, each being devoted to some specialty of New York city. Beyond the Mississippi" is a vivid, ro mantic sketch of the immense stretch of country extending from the great river to the great ocean. The tragic death of its late author, who fell by the hand of McFarland, has added aa in terest in the public mind to his last great work, a sketch even of which is ont of the question in a brief notice. Wo commend the fair lady to the kind* ness and liberality of those whom oho may visit for the purpose of obtaining subscript tions. The works she represents are printed and bound in good style by the Aihwmmi P ublishing. Company, Hartford, Connec ticut. The Clrcae. Moist weather did not prevent a fair at tendance last evening, and did not prevent the clowns being as funny as they could be. The Miaco brothers hong between heaven and earth, to the astonishment of the visit ors. The riders and tumblers did their best to please, and even the graceful horses arched their necks more proudly than ever. The strange animals in cages made them selves as agreeable as they possibly could nnder confined circumstances. All who ad mire circus performances must remember that to-night is the last chance to see Messrs. Wooten Sc Haight's combination. The Temperature. The thermometer at Louis Frigerio's, No. 50 Chartres street, stood as follows yesterday: At 8 A. M., 60°; at 2 P. M 73°; at 6 P. M., 70°. Lowest point during the night of November 17, 55°. Tarn and Jerry. This evening the St. Charles Theatre will be brilliantly lighted to enable hundreds of sporting people to tee Mr. Ned O'Baldwin, the young Irish giant and athlete, in the famous sketch of "Tom and Jerry." He will be assisted by Mr. Tom Kelly. The "Knight of Arva" and the farce of "Mr. and Mrs. Peter White" will also be pre sented. The Opera Hants. This evening the admirers of opera will be bbarmed with Verdi's "La. Traviata," in four acta. The opera of "Le Chalet," in one act, will also be produced. Prices of seats for Sunday may he ascertained by consulting small bills. Ladies would do well to inspect the new arrivals in dress goods at O'Donnell, Wem mett Sc Co's., 643 and 645 Magazine street, corner of Jackson, in Dr. Wade's new build ing. Crumbs Swept Up—B y T. DeWitt Tal madge. A large number of copies of this work have recently been sold in this city on subscription. It is, beyond question, a re markable production, and is likely to be come one of the text books of polite society. A Washington special to the St. Louie Democrat says: In spite of the late dismissals from the Naval Academy, the hazing and outrages of this character have recently been worse than ever. The board of investigation has recommended fifteen additional dismissals, and the department has decided to dismiss five of these. The investigation shows that one of the cadets was held and made to drink a mag of mixture, composed of castor oil, mucilage, ink, tooth powder and quinine; another was held ont of the fifth story of a building by the heels till he was nearly dead, and a third was taken out at night and made to kneel before the Herndon monument on the ground and pray for the President, the American eagle, the star spangled banner, and lastly for his perse cutors. There is a weeping among the prettv maidens of Quebec, at the prospective de parture of a battalion of the Sixtieth the only detachment of her majesty's regu lars in that famous city. The officers of the Sixtieth are mostly handsome young fel lows, and great favorites in Canadian so ciety. _ _ The secret of addressing children well is to help them to think np toward yonr level instead of trying to talk down to th«ir level. As to language, I doubt whether a minister ought ever to use a word in any of his sermons whieh an average lad of twelve years can not understand. The Groat Teacher never used a big word .—Theodore Cayler. LOUISIANA STATE MECHANICS' AND AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY FIF T H YXABLY EXPOSITION A visit to the Fair Gronnda yesterday, the opening day, disclosed the disagreeable fact that the exhibitors and other* were backward, for there were no instances of any one department being fully prepared to exhibit their wares. Inside the three large buildings everything was in confusion, aa it might have been on* week ago. Me chanics aad artists were laboring hard to bring order out of chaos—to delicately ar range fine goods dng ont of huge peeking boxes. There an abundant signs that com petition will bring before the public hun dreds of useful aad ornamental articles hitherto quite unknown to people In tilts section. Of agricultural implements then is a fair display, bnt beyond a few chickens and geese, there are as yet no indications that animated nature will be represented. The new buildings and gronnda prove that energetic hand* have been and are still at work. It ia plain that money and talent have been lavished to some purpose, for all the appointments show that past experience has taught several important lessons. In a day or two, probably, all arrange ments will be perfected, each ambitions ex hibitor will have his wares properly dis played, and all the different departments working smoothly. We are pleased to announce that menu facturars and commercial men of our city and State an well represented; in feet, if ia thought oar own citizens will take a deeper interest this year than hitherto in develop, ing our unbounded resources. It is very desirable that Louisianians should, by their presence, capital, products and enterprise, essay to bring to the public eye what the Pelican State can do; and this bur opens np an excellent onpmtnnity, furnishing occa sion for such a consummation. Little was done yesterday, and there waa not n Inigo number of visitor*, aa several .Tu i OT r 1 1 things tended to prevent the congregating 1 c v 1 of aa immense crowd. Still all who visited the grounds were well repaid. Visitors need not be alarmed about not finding solids and liquids for the inner man, aa there are good restaurants and mIimwii A ndy Parle practices at the bar under a vast oak tree, although ho ia no lawyer, and near him is onr neighbor, Phil McCabe, with his great American stove, cooking biscuit and cakes for all who choose to eat. Other stoves are around him, nnder pagodas, and the war will probably break out again between the several aspirants. They all deserve medals or bine ribbons. The floral tent is a charming retreat, bnt is not finished or completely supplied. It is in practical hands, and will soon blossom. During the evening there was quite 1/tiring *ue evening mere was qnite a I spirited race, and nearly everybody stopped work to admire the animals. I TRIALS OF SPEED. 1 Mile heats E.

In conformity to the wishes of exhibitors, entries will be received at the office of the secretary, on the Fair Grounds, and the State Fair will be continued one week be yond the nine days first announced. And now we have something new—the Reformer, published at Thibodaux, on the ruins of the Lafourche Republican. Yet we have another thing new—a letter in that paper from D. H. Reese, in which, speaking of the Customhouse reform party, he says: "The political farce that has been in progress for the past several months may be put down as a complete failure on the part of the actors." Mr. Beese expresses him self disappointed in the Customhouse reform party, whose line of action is "the kind of corruption." worst A Washington dispatch says: "It isoffi cially stated that Secretary BoutweU, in his next report, will strongly recommend the necessary legislation for the payment in Europe of the inteiMt on nodi of tbo I loan as may hereafter be plaoed abroad. I This, it is believed, will greatly extend the European market for United States secu rities. The Emperor William, of Germany, is now in his seventy-fifth year, but his hair 1 and beard alone betray his age. His com plexion is still fresh, and his powers of en_ durance are as great as ever.

After the rain had nearly ceased last night, rad between ten and eleven o'clock, the thermometer fell rapidly.

In the Second District Court, the illness of Judge Dnvigneand, which still eon tin nee, delays the usual trials of rales aad oppo sitions, whieh daily consume the time of this tribunal. Except in the ease where Jndge Em_____ laid down the law in reference to justices of ™,N8«i the current of judgments ta the Third District Court the previous week has consisted only of the usual ran of ap from jhstieea courts. These consist of bills for services rendered by clerks, mechanics and laborers, salts for rant and for damages, besides the ordinary demand on a running account. The salts filed ta the Fourth District Court yesterday consisted of an attachment *80 demand for payment of promissory notes. The illness of Judge Cooley delays all trials in the Sixth District Coart, whieh does a fair amount of business ta the filing of suits. Applications for the writ of mnwAnimn either npon the Auditor or Treasurer, still pour into the Eighth District Court, the latest being the applications of Mortimer Carr fcr_S6000, of A. K. Whitney for #9000, and of Thomas C. Anderson for #18,500, be longing *0 the "contingent expense aoeount" of the Legislature. The rale ta eaeh of these cases, to show canse or comply, is made returnable on Thursday next, when will also come up the enit waged byM. Geraon for the nullity of the registered warrant judgment. The Grain Trade ta Winter. From the Chicago Tribune.] The New Orleans merchants are making efforts to establish a direct trade with Europe for the cereals of the Northwest, For three or four years past shipments have been made of corn and wheat from that port for Liverpool, whieh arrived there ta good order. The apprehensions that some entertained that, in the Gulf of Mexico, grata migh^Seeome heated and injured, have not been justified by the result. The fact is an important one ta bearings npon this city. During the sees of lake, canal and river navigation the route from this city and the Northwest to the Atlantic porta, and thence to Europe, ia shorter by three or four weeks than from here to New Orleans, and from there to Europe. It will, therefore, com mand the business. Bnt. in the season of suspended lake and river navigation, last ing, generally, from early in November to the middle of May, cereals can not be transported nearly so cheaplv by rail aa by the way of New Orleans. The distance by rail to Cairo, and thence by water naviga-1 tion, will always be cheaper than by rail di rect to the cities of New York, Boston or Port-1 land. Our warehouses and elevators have for several yean been crowded with grain daring the winter season waiting for navi gation. The outlet by way of New Orleans would enable Chieago to prosecute the grain business at this season without the usual delays. Arrangements conld easily be made to obtain through bills of lading from this city to Liverpool via New Orleans, insured for the whole transit, npon which bills of exchange might bo drawn, and thus enable the merchant in Chicago to realize at once npon corn and wheat shipped here. Such arrangements would he of great advantage during the approaching winter. By the fire onr warehouses have been in a large proportion destroyed, and, with all the preparations that can be made, we shall nave storage room age room for half the quantity of grain usually seeking this port in the winter. And our neighboring cities are not prepared to receive it The odier lake ports have for several years had all the grain they conld give room to dnrinir this season much in excess of their capacity as it will he of ours.

In the latitude of middle Georgia the squares formed between August 25 I 8ept enl er 25, nnder favorable cirenm I stances, promise to make good cotton. The I P**ft®*pnT cause of reduction of yield ta Texas is drouth; ta Louisiana, droutta in and black rot: in Miaaiasippi, wet I I* spnng, drouth in the mer and, in isolated sections, the caterpillar or boll worm and driving winds and floods, which occasioned nearly total destruction of considerable areas. Drouths have wrought more orleaa injury ta Alabama, Georgia and South Carolina. The yield per aero, ao intimated by county estimate, is the largest in Arkansas, decreasing in the following order: Texas, Tennessee, Mississippi, Louisiana, North Carolina, Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina and Florida. The more northern belt of the cotton States shows the least reduction from their usual average. Hie tabulations for November are estimates, for each county, of the total product of the year, expressed as per centages of the actual crop of last year. These averages, adjusted with regard to the relative production of the counties reported, give the following result for each State: North Carolina, 68; Georgia, 67: Florida, 58; Alabama, 73; Missisaippi, 72; Louisiana, 65; Texas, 68; Arkansas, 85; Tennessee, 90. A few counties in Virginia, Kentucky and Missouri make reports of much the tenor as the returns from North Carolina and Tennessee. The quality of the fibre is reported good in all sections np to the ent time. A small proportion of disco or trashy cotton has been gathered, attention has been paid to improved quality by the introduction of improved varieties. Many correspondents note the superiority in yield, and the compmative exemption from decrease nnder careful cul ture and judicious fertilization.
