TT**— Last Friday night about 10 o’clook, a shoemaker named Adam Ooothail, liv ing on South Boundary street, at the corner of Campbell, attempted to com mit suicide by sotting his throat with n old case knife.' He succeeded in making an ugly wound on the right side of his neck when the knife was taken away from him. He then attempted to carry out his purpose with a piece of glass, but that also was seised by the same party, who thereupon rapped for a policeman. Polioemau Allen soon ap peared on the scene, and carried Ooothail to the City Hail. The officer on duty sent for Dr. Reiman, who sewed up the wound, and then sent the patient to the City Hospital. Ooothail appear ed to be 4t>< Q g well yesterday. He was evidently laboring under temporary aberration of mind, caused by taking too much strong drink, when he tried to kill himself. (test AMldraUllr. Yesterday morning, about six o’clook, while a colored man named Alfred Mor ricks, a fireman on the Maoon and Au gusta Railroad, was stooping over and washing his faoe at a hydrant near the Union Depot, his pistol, a Colt’s re volver, dropped from his pocket and one of the chambers was accidentally dis charged. The ball entered the lower portion of his body, sad ranging sronnd lodged near the back. He was very much frightened, and ran off imme diately in search of a physician. Two surgeons attended him ia a short time. They probed the wound, but failed to find the ball. The wound is consid ered to be dangerous. ■ m A Maurnfal Ceineideace.

OKNERAI. LEE AND GENERAL, SCOTT. Mr. LAsnata’a OSer •( (fee Canaaaad sf tbs Called States A nay to General Lm. 2b the Editor of the Times : As confirmatory of the incident given by Hon. Allen B. Magrnder in the Weekly limes, of to-day, allow me to say that the letter which he gives from General Lee to Hon. Reverdy Johnson was found by me not long after General Lee’s death in his private letter book, copied tn his own well known hand writing. By the kindness of the family I was allowed to copy the letter and pub lish i# in 1874 in my “Personal Re miniscences, Aneodotes and Letters of General Lee” (pp. 141-142), where I also gave the testimony of Mr. Montgomery Blair snd other proofs that the supreme command of the United States army was offered to Colonel Lee before he left Washington. I once heard Mrs. Lee speak freely of this event in the life of her husband, and a gentleman of high standing in New York has told me that in an inter view which he had with General Scott in April, 1861, he spoke in the very high est terms of Lee’s ability as a soldier and character as a man; told him that the supreme command of the United States Army was offered him, and said that he (Scott) would have cheerfully given place to “the ablest Boldier in America” if he coaid have induced him to accept. The proofs are conclusive that when Robert E. Lee cast in his lot with his mother State, he turned his back on the highest position that an American sol dier oonld covet, and deliberately chose the path of sacrifice, peril and loss of tlfis world’s goods, because, in his judg ment, it was the path of dnty and of honor. In Jane, 1868, he said to his trusted lieutenant, the gallant and accomplished General Wade Hampton: “I did only what my dnty demanded; I oonld have taken no other course without dishonor. And if all were to be done over again, I stionld act precisely in the same man ner.” Men will differ as to the course which General Lee thought proper to pursue in siding with Virginia and the South in the great struggle, but no fair-minded man can examine the proofs and doubt for a moment that hq acted from the purest motives—from the highest sense of duty and honor.

OBSTRUCTING NATURE, Instead of aiding her iu her efforts to recuperate, is obviously not the way to get well when one is sick. Yet this is precisely the course pursued—of course unwittingly—by persons who are continually dosing themselves with pow erful mineral drugs for some malady with which they are afflicted. Such baneful medicaments rather tend to re tard recovery than to hasten it. How mnoh more sensible are they who em ploy the gentle acting bnt thoroughly efficient restorative, Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, whioh, unlike the drugs referred to, is eminently wholesome and safe; and, instead of injuring, improves the tone of the stomach and re-creates health and vigor in the broken down system. Indigestion, liver complaint, constipation, kidney and bladder ail ments, and rheumatism, yield to its cor rective influence, aud it is the remedy and preventive par excellence for inter mittent and remittent fevers and other disorders bred by miasma tainted air and water. It is, moreover, a superb appetizer nov2o-tuthaaAw for flavoring ice-cream, jellies, cus tards, pastry, etc., use Dr. Price’s True Flavoring Extracts; they will give per fect satisfaction.

HURRAY, eon of Daniel Murray and Susan Scott waa, or his heirs, will write ms, I oa-i tall them something to pay. H. H. HAYNES, ovIS-wl* Goto, Kf- Weeltly Review ef lifuti Market. Augusta, Ga., Friday Afternoon, I November 33, 1877. ) Oeserel Renarki. Th* past week has bean a bad one, indeed, for business. The done of each day shows more conclusively that Augusta ia net doing what she should do in any line, and falls far behind the expectations of her merchants. Our city, ia common, suffers from financial depression, brought on by shrinkage in prop erty and contraction in currency. These are emphatically the times of hard pan: trade of every sort ie touching bottom, and the flush days of a few years ago are with us ’‘no more, forever.” The second cause of Augusta’* loss of busi ness lies unquestionably in freight difficulties. Charges of discrimination are being preferred against our principal road, and no immediate relief appears available. Merchants of every line of business are emphatic in their oom plaints, and the eyes of railroad men are opening to the interests of the city, which, in the end, controls the prosperity of the railroad lines centering here. .... The cotton crop of this section ia behind that of last year, and it is feared that the heavy Fall weather will greatly militate against picking a full and clean crop, now in the fields. This, of coarse, would further cat off an already short orop. Beoeipts this week in August* amount to 8,433 bales, last week's being 6,341 bales. Total receipts up to date are 71,564, against 100,931 last year, showing a decrease of 29,357 bales. Last week our dis crepancy reported was 29,449 bales. Receipts, however, are now beginning to fall off daily, and this difference, it is feared, will continue to grow greater. Most of the guano cotton has been received, and, as is well known, it was these heavy shipments whioh have largely kept up Augusta’s receipts this year. Prices for the week for Middling have been active, with an upward tendency, closing yes terday quiet and steady at lOJslO). Futures The bad weather this week has contributed to damage business, local traffic being badly interfered with. Cotton shipments are also the heavy rains. Taking these three things into consideration, then, Augusta does wonderfully well in presenting an aotive front to the commercial world. Financial Markets. The want of business activity in the market, and depression generally among merchants, haa oaased a heavy feeling and drag for money. The demand for loans is- slight, and there seems an unsettled feeling, although money readily btings 12 per cent, over bank counters, and can be placed ontside at 10 per cent. Exchange is baying at }to i disoount. and selling at from J- to par, acoording to amounts desired. In bonds and Stocks there is but little doing, the greater part of the trade being confined to the baying and selling of small parcels of City of Augusta Bonds and State of (Georgia Bonds, 6, 7 and 8, for it, as investments, are authorized by law for guard dians and trustees. In speculations very little is doing. Oeorgia Railroad Stock, which has been one of our staples in the trade, has had for some time a declining tendency. It is of fered freely at 70, and very few shares, in small lots, have bees sold at from 69}t070, If large lots were offered, speculators, we think, would be induced to purchase under 70. We have a demand for Western Railroad Bonds, first and second, also for Macon and Augusta Bonds, endorsed, at our fall quoted rates. In Gold there is but little doing, os holders are not offering, exoept in small amounts, and the demand is also limited. Brokers buy at I}, and sell at 3} premium. Produce Market*. But little has been doing here during the past week. Bacon continues quiet and prioes uiiohanged. Breadstuffa weak, there Doing bnt little demand for City Mills Fonr, while operations in Western are proportionately low. Grain is inactive, as millers are suffering from light business in Flour. Syrups, Molas ses and Tobacco, sluggish, the market being fully stocked The demand for Liquors con tinues good, the trade being particularly ao tive in lower grades. Provisions are Ann. Eggs scarce and high, with Dressed and Live Poultry in good demand, influenced more or less by Thanksgiving dinner. Dry Goods Are quiet, the rain interfering with shopping here more than in any other branch of busi ness. In fact, the prevailing mildness of the season has interferred greatly with the sale of heavy Winter goods, so that merohanta In this line cannot be said to have yet had a fair ahanoe. Retail trade in small, fanoy articles is good. The demand for Augusta manufac tured goods is light. Hardware Is quiet, business in the staples being active, with extras at a discount. Drags are dull. Trade in other branohes moderate. TOTAL BKOHIPTS AND SALES FOB THE WEEK. Sales 6,490 Beoeipts 6,533 COMPARATIVE COTTON BTATBMBNT.
