Southern Securities.
The Herald’s money article of Satur
day says much activity has been mani
fested of late in various classes of
Southern bonds, both within and with
out the stock board, r
On that day ,90 was bid for Georgia
sevens new—while Alabama eights
sold at 833 to S3}.
As illustrating what Wall street
thinks of the soundness of the credit of
the supremely loyal State of South
Carolina, her six per cent, bonds, inter
est payable in January and July, could
only get a bid on 15.
Fixe Stock.—Capt. McCord has re
cently brought from Kentucky a lot of
fine mules and horses. He lias sold to
the Round Mountain Iron Works ten
mules, from four to six years old, and
that average sixteen hands high, for
8230 each. They were extra fine, and
all well broke.
The Augusta Fire and Marine Insur
ance Company will resume business
with 8200,000. It has done nothing
since the war, hut will now become an
active concern. New directors have
been elected.
Removal.—John Harkins & Co. have
removed to No. 19 Shorter Block, where
they will be pleased to see their friends
and customers. They will open in a
few days a very extensive stock of fall
and winter goods, which will be offered
on the most liberal terms. Call and

Tun Tableau. — As was expected 1
the entertainment at the City Hall on
Tuesday night was a splendid success,
presenting one of the most delightful
evening’s amusements ever given in
this city.
Where all acted so well tlic-ir parts,
it would be invidious to particularize.
Tiie married ladies, however, who en
couraged the laudable objects of the
Association by tlieir active co-opcration
and pleasant participation in the enter
tainment, deserve special mention.
They were, Mrs. 1). S. Printup, Mrs. Dr.
Battey, Mrs. T. W. Alexander, and
Mrs. II. C. Norton, who contributed
very largely to the success of the pro
gramme.
A fine house greeted the performance,
and all were delighted—so much so
that the request is unanimous that tlie
entertainment be repeated on some
evening during the Fair, week after
next. We hope that it may -be repeated.

Howard & Co., of Atlanta, managers
of the Georgia State Lottery for the
benefit of the Orphans Home, inform
us that they have received a letter, of
some inportance, dated at Rome, Ga.,
August 20, with no signature. Thinking
that this was an oversight on the part
of tlie writer, they request him to send
his name to them.
A Card.
If persons living in vicinity of Rome
or in the surrounding counties, who are
desirous to be organized into Granges,
will address the undersigned at once, he
will instruct them as to the method by
which these organizations may he ef
fected during the approaching Rome
Fair. C. W. Howard,
Deputy Ga. State Grange.
Kingston, Aug. 2G, 1873.
Burglars.—Our citizens would do
well to he on the lookout for burglars
and sneak thieves. We understand
that a house on South street was entered
night before last, and tlie occupants
chloroformed and robbed of money to
the amount of seventy dollars. Mr.
Wurtz’s house on Howard street was
also entered, but no loss was discovered.
Lookout for the scoundrels, and if
caught, shoot them down like dogs.
Fair.—Monday week the Fair opens.
So far the prospects were never so prom
ising for a grand display and large
attendance, as at present. There are
eleven States already represented by
entries, besides our own — some as
mail}- as ten entries. And still they
conic.
Four young ladies have entered for
the cooking match — chance for two
more, one for each day. These young
ladies are of the most aristocratic and
best families. Too much honor can
not be awarded them for the nerve and
disposition to enter the contest.
It proves that they have no false
modesty about them, which is too prev
alent among our people, especially
among tlie young ladies. Young men!
such girls arc fortunes, such as will en
dure through adversity as well as pros
perity. It does us honor and pleasure
to lift our beaver to all such—God bless
them!~ a
The Grangers’ Address.—We pub

The Ta n-Killer manufactured by Perry Da
▼ia & Sen ha? iron for itself a reputation fbpt la
unaurpuied in medicinal preparation!. The
unlverulitj of thq demand for the Pain-Killer ia
a novel, interesting ahd surprising feature in the
history of thin medicine. Tha Pain-Killer ia now
regnla»Iy sold ia large and steadily increasing
quantities, no; only to general agents in ey6ry
State and Territory of the Union, and every one
of the British American provinces, but to Bnenoa
Ayre*, .Brasil, Uraguay, l oro. Chili, and other
South American StaWs, to the Sandwich Islands
and Cuba, the West India Islands, to England
and Continental Europe, to Mozambique, Mada
gascar, Zanzibar, and other African lands, and
to Australia, Calcutta, Rangoon and other places
in India.
It has also boen sent to China, and wc doubt
if ihere ts any foreign port or any inland city in
Africa or Asia, which is frequented by American
or • uropean missionaries, travelers or traders, to
which Pain-Killer has not been introduced.
The exteat of its usefulness is another feature
of this remarkable medicine. It is not only the
best thing over known, as everybody will attest,
for bruises, cuts, boras, etc., but for dysentery or
cholera, or any sort of bowel complaint, it is the
one remedy unsurpassed for efficiency and rapid
action.
In the great cities of British India, the West
India Islands, and other hot climates, it has now
become the standard medicine for .all such com
plaints, as well as dyspepsia, liver complaint and
other kindred disorders. For coughs' and colds,
canker, asthma and rheumatic difficulties, it has
been pioved by the most abundant and convinc
ing trills and testimony, to be an invaluable
mcdicuc.
The proprietors are in tie possession of letters
from persons of highest character and respons
ibility, footifying in unequivocal terms to cures
effected snd the satisfactory results produced, in
an endless variety of cases, by the use of this
great medicine.
That the Pain-Killer Is deserving of every one
of th< claims set up for it, is fully proved by the
unpanlelled popularity it has attained. It is a
sore ud effective remedy. It is sold in almost
every country in the world, and still is becoming
more popular every year. Its healing powers
have bpen fully tested, everywhere, and it needs
only U be known to be prized. For sale !>y all

Uee Keepers’ Convention—To Bee Keepers
of Ceorgla and Alabama.
At a meeting held in tlie city of
Rome on Saturday, the 14th day of
June, 1S73, a temporary organization
of the “ Bee Keepers’ Association of the
Cherokee Country of Georgia and Ala
bama” was affected, and, by resolution,
it was determined to hold a Convention
of Bee Keepers on the Fair Grounds,
near the city of Rome, on Tuesday, the
9th day of September, being the second
day of the fifth annual Fair of the
Agricultural and Mechanical Associa
tion of the Cherokee Country of Georgia
and Alabama.
It is earnestly desired that all Bee
Keepers and .others interested in the
propagation of bees willattend. At this
Convention a permanent organization
will be effected and officers elected to
serve for the next twelve months; also,
to select a time and place for the first
annual meeting of the Association.
Numerous letters have been received
from prominent Bee Keepers in Geor
gia and Alabama, commending the
movement and notifying us that they
will be present.
All the railroads will pass delegates

A correspondent who visited Mrs.
Robert E. Lee at Alexandria found her
engaged in coloring a bunch of autumn
leaves, which were destined for a fair
condition of the sextons house, we ( 0 j )0 soon , tlie proceeds of which
are to go towards erecting a memorial
chapel to General Lee.
Making fancy work for this fair and
coloring pictures are Mrs. Lee’s favorite
occupations, and so eager is she to con
tribute to its success that she rises at
five o’clock to begin her work.
A husband famine is reported in
London, and that city this season, as
yet, resembles heaven in one thing—
there lias been no marrying or giving
in marriage there.
There are thirty persons in the prison
