Of this sum the paupers who are to reap the benefit get about |E,EOO and the coat of distribu tion la 11,200. That la to say. the cost of dispensing thn charily la more than one-fifth as much as the benfllrlarlea for whom the fund Is Intended receive. It cannot be seriously contended that this expensive administration of the fund Is Just to the taxpayer* and cltlxena. They make their contribu tions for the beprflt of the poor ond not for a eoatly medium of distribution. Aside from the county home for the poor, there are many charities In Au gusta. The Widow*’ Home, the King's Daughters, and many other worthy or ganisations distribute thousand* of dollars to the poor people of Augusta every year. The officers of these Insti tutions gi'gard It as an honor and a privilege to servo In their respective capacities without compensation. While ft Is not to t*e expected that the Board of Charities is to be con ducted on tide generous basis, it seems reasonable to hope- that we could fur nish food, fuel ond clothing to the poor nt an expense for distribution of less than $1,200 a year. Half of this sum goes towards paying a storekeeper. This is a needless ex pense and might well be turned over to the poor. There is but little doubt that arrangements could be made with merchants In Augusta to furnish the Board of Charities with the amount of commodities needed, giving wholesale rates, but serving out the commodities as needed and as asked for by the sec retary of the board. This Is one public institution which should be run at the lowest possible cost.

Riding driving, music, dancing and cards are the leading pastimes here, though the disciples of Isaac Walton can gratify their piscatorial taste, as Little river is within easy reach, and good fishing can generally be hajj In the stream. I will not say what our catch was the day we tried it, as a fisherman's story is taken "cum grano sails” by the majority of men. and T would not like any doubt expressed in regard to accuracy. I went as much to see the old mill at Raysville as to fish, but when we reached the spot where I had not been since I was In knee pants. I found a fine site for a dam, but no mill by a dam site.
