Washington Artilery. —We are glad to learn
says the Dispatch that the new gun-carriages for
this favorite corps have at length arrived. Their

their advertisement in our celumus, and give

A Georgia Book.- -We have inadvertently omit
ted till now to notice a volume of home growth,
for which we are indebted to Mr. H. D. Noruill,
the publisher. It is “Ethel the fate of
the Union,” a novel, written by our neighbor, Mr.
Smytue, Esq., at present editor of the True Demo
crat, of this city. We have only bad time as yet
to give it a passing glance, but it is in its author’s
usuul chaste, but vigorous style. The volume was
published in 1857, but it comes iu now, just in the
nick of time, when all are anxiously concerned
about the fate of our beloved Union. Go to Mr.
Norrell’s Book Store, buy, and read for your
selves. While we are talking of Southern inde
pendence in other matters, let us not .forget our
home literature.
Richmond llcssars. —Through some strange in
advertence, or fatality, we failed to notice the
parade of the Richmond Hussars, Capt. Thos. P.
Stovall, on Friday last. We should not allude
to our shortcomings at this late hour, were it not
thal we have accidentally made the same omission
once or twice before, and a recurrence of the neg
lect might perhaps be construed by our friends of
the Hussars as au intentional slight upon them.—
Nothing can be further from our thought or in
tents. In common with all our citizens, we
cherish the greatest respect for this gallant corps
—who deserve special commendation, from the
fact, that it is the only cavalry company in our
midst, and the cost of its equipment and main
tenance is a heavy tax unfits taerohacfris .
n of the public spirit of the
Hussars, that they keep up so spirited an organi
zation, and bear themselves with such soldierly
dignity at their public parades. Their maneuver
ing aud drill always commands admiration, for
the military precision and skill manifest, as well
as for the novelty and beauty of the tactics em
ployed.
The parade on Friday, as we learn from our
morning cotemporaries, was a fine affair, and re
flected much credit upon officers and men. At
the time they were parading the streets, we were
probably deep in a pile of exchanges in the sanc
tum, and wholly oblivious of the great world out
side. The next time the Hussars ap
pear in public, set us down for a (dry-goods) box
ticket.
Warren %>u\ty Agricultural Society. —The
planters of Warren, at a meeting in that county,
on Thursday last, resolved to dispense with their
annual Fair this fall.
Death op Judge Hugh M. D. King.—We learn

Health, in their report dated Oct. 2Sd, state that
there had been but three deaths from yellow fe

Laying Down the Kingdom.
RT J. R. ORTON.
So, Thomas is going to get married,
To bring home a bride, a young wife,
He has said it himself, and he never
JJeceived or joked me in his life.
When got married it gave me
No thought of regret or supprise ;
For the boy seemed just made for a woman—
To live iu the light of her eyes.
And when Clara was wed to the Southron—
Though Clara, my daughter, was dear—
Aud removed to the far Rappahannock,
It cost but a sigh and a tear.
But Thomas, my staff and my eldest,
Seemed never to care for the girls.
So proud, like the oak, to surrender .
At last to soft eyes and soft curls!
Since John died—six years ago Christmas—
Our Thomas—he’s always the same—
With more than the strength of his father
Has stayed up the house and the name.
I never once thought he could marry,
So kingly, so firm, and so kind—
Ah me ! tears will come ; they are needed;
For my old eyes, indeed, must be blind.
He tells me I’m getting so aged,
I need more repose, more fresh air;
So a daughter he’ll bring me to lighten
My burthen of labor and care.
Ah me ! He may think so ; he brings me
A mistress, it must be, instead.
The sceptre must pass to another,
And 1 to my grave, or my bed.
But hold! It is well. Omy Father!
Help me to subdue my proud heart.
I have reigned like a queen ; but ’tis over;!
And another of right takes the part.
I yield her my empire for ever :
And, Thomas, I’ll love all that's thine.
Thy chosen shall have all her honors,
As I’ve always had all of mine.
Come hither, my little man, Tommy,
r Come hither, my rosebud, my Jane ! •
You are Grandmamma’s darlings and treasures--
Her pearls hung about her again.
Not Papa, Uncle, Will, nor Aunt Clara—
So grand and so sweet when she comes—
Ever gave me one-half of the pleasure
Os these little sproutlings ot Tom’s.
They have kisses and cheer in thej morniDg ;
They have kisses and cheer all day long ; ’
And their sports, and their griefs so alarming,
Which always are cured with a song.
They know where to find a consoler ;
As little birds fly to their nest,
They climb Grandma’s knee (or a cover,
And always find peace on her breast.
Firemen’* Parade and Review.
The Augusta Fire Department had their semi
annual parade for inspection and review, as offi
cially advertised, yesterday afternoon. At the
hour appointed, the several companies formed on
Greene street, in front of Firemens’ Hall. Pion
eer Hook and Ladder Company took the right of
the line, and, prececed by the Augusta Brass
Band, the whole cavalcade moved down Greene
to Centre,through Centre to Broad, up Broad(north
side) to the Planters’ Hotel, and down the south
side of Broad street to the place of trial, in front
of the Augusta Hotel. The companies marched
iu the following order :
Pioneer Hook and Ladder Company.
Hamburg Fire Company.
Georgia, (Independent, Ist Division.)
Mechanic, (Independent, 2d Division.)
Washington Fire Company, No. 1.
Clinch Steam Fire Engine, No. 2.
Vigilant Fire Company, No. 3.
Fillmore Fire Company, No. 4.
Augusta Fire Company, No. 5.
Columbia Fire Company, No. 6.
Each Company was accompanied by its Hose
cart and apparatus, and all were fully manned.
A spirited contest for the prizes took place, all
the machines showing to good advantage, and
giving abundant proof to the numerous lookers
on that they ai e serviceable and valuable.
We give the names of the makers of the differ
ent machines entered for the prizes: Hamburg,
Richmond, Washington, Fillmore, made by llun
neman ; Columbia, Vigilant, Augusta, made by
Jeffers; Mechanic, made by Agnew ; Georgia, a
“ Button” machine.
The Judges appointed to decide the result of
the throwing were Messrs. Wm. L. Platt, D. H.
Denning, Wm. H. Rich, J. C. Quinn and It. S.
Pass.
The following is the result :

“ “ 2d “ 182 0

It will be seen from the above, that Washington
No. 1, of the second class engines, threw the
greatest distance, (165 feet 4 inches) and to that
company, therefore, was awarded the prize select
ed, a beautiful silver goblet. Augusta No. 5 threw
the greatest distance of the first class machines,
(198 feet 6 inches) and consequently took the first
prize, an elegant silver trumpet, ornamented with
appropriate and chaste designs. Cost of trumpet,
$80; of goblet, S2O. They were well and worthily
bestowed.
The Judges acquitted themselves of tlyir diffi
cult task with credit, and we believe dvery one
was satisfied with the fairness of the whole pro
ceedings. Some of the machines, we understand,
worked to disadvantage. Fillniore, we were told,
was found to have obstructions in her pipe, and
Georgia had four trials and burst her hose each
time. ‘
After the ahoye mentioned engines had played,
the steam engine Clinch was fired up, and played
off. We were unable to learn the distance thrown,
but know it must have been some.
At 8 o’clock, the presentation of the prizes to
the successful contestants took place at Firemen’s
Hall. We regretted our inability to accept the
kind invitation of Mr. Lamback to attend on this
pleasant occasion. We can only imagine how
agreeable it was, and with what eclat everything
passed off.
The ponderous bell “Big Steve” was fitted tem
porarily with its tongue, and pealed forth its sono
rous notes during the progress of the procession.
As the manner in which it was rung was little
calculated to give it full tone, the trial was not a
fair test of how loud it can speak. Weshalljbe
able to speak more definitely of its fitness for the
elevated and responsible position it occupies, after
it has been rigged in a proper manner, and rung
by an adept. It was by resolution of the Council
yesterday that a trial was made of it.
Os the number of people out to see the display
we have no means of judging, nor do we know
precisely how long the procession was in passing
a given point. We only know the streets were
thronged by bright and smiling faces, and the day
was a gala one to all. The weather was delight
ful, and, barring a little dust, the streets were in
as good order for the turn-out as could be desired.
To Chief Engineer Lamback and Assistants,
who so promptly marshalled their forces, and kept
the whole body in good order, be great praise ; to
the Pioneers who lent their valuable assistance,
and to our Hamburg friends who honored us
with their presence, be much ciedit awarded; and
to the whole Augusta Fire Department, who de
ported themselves so well and gallantly, be all
houor and prosperity from this time forth !
There is no “ discount” on the “ notes” of the
Augusta Brass Band. They always make excel
lent music, and at no time better than yesteaday.
Another “Mark’s Nest.”— A recent sensation
story about the hanging of Hitchings and his son,
at Bennettaville, South Carolina, turns out to be
a hoax, and the startling story about boxes of
revolvers and pikes a humbug of the first water.
Hitchings was examined and discharged.
Hard Times in Louisiana. —Later accounts from
Natchitoches, La., state that the people of that
section are in actual state of starvation. Their
crops were an entire failure, and Red River, by
which the country is usually supplied with the
uecessaries, is dry.
Montgomery—Population.— Col. Wilkins, the
Deputy U. S. Marshal, who has most faithfully
discharged his arduous duties, assures us that the
population of the city proper exceeds 10,000. In
a few days, we shall probably be able to give the
exact figures. — Mail.

2,00 were taken by speculators and exporters. The

Markets.

Middlings 11 cents, with a quiet market.
New Orleans, Oct. 27. —Sales of Cotton to-day
r ,500 bales, at unchanged prices. Molasses 42 to

New Yoke, Oct. 27.—Sales of Cotton 3,500 bales
with a firm market. Flour heavy with sales
of 17,500 barrels, Sonthern $5 70(§356 00. Wheat

Spirits of Turpentine steady at 40@41 cents per
gallon. Rosin $1 45. Rice firm.
The New York Union Parade. —We have no
hesitation in saying, that the magnificent Parade
of the Union men, in this city, last evening, was,
beyond all comparison, the greatest demonstration
of the kind ever seen in New York, —famous as
New York is for the imposing displays of which
it has been the scene in times past, when the
Union was appealed to. Men well skilled in num
bers, assured us that there could not have been
fewer than forty thousand people on the line of
march,—and that the length of the procession was
from five to six miles ! The Republican turnout,
a lew weeks ago, was thus, but the farthing can
dle, compared with this great Union Sun. The
enthusiasm, too, was immense. We never saw
anything like it. Everybody seemed to be curried
away with it. The Republican display of rustics,
compared with this parade, was but a funeral
procession. Cheers for the “Union,” the “Con
stitution,” rung out clear, loud, heartily and spon
taneously all along the whole joute.
There is scarcely a doubt that on the 6th ot No
vember the Empire City, under such inspiration
as this, will roll up a majority for the Union Elec
toral ticket equal to the forty thousand good men
and true, who turned out in her thoroughfares last
night, following no music that did not chord with
“the music of the Union.”— Express, ‘2Ath.
Mr. Breckinridge and the Douglas Questions.
—Dr. Calhoun, the Mayor of Elizabeth City, North
Carolina, recently wrote to Mr. Breckinridge,
propounding to him the question put to Mr. Doug
las at Norfolk, viz : would the election of Mr. Lin
coln be a sufficint cause for the dissolution of the
Union?” In reply he received a letter from Mr.
Breckinridge, of which only the following extract
is published in the Albemarle Southron :
Lexington, Ky., Oct. sth, 1860.
Dear Sir :—Yours of the first instant has been
received. The questions you ask are answered in
my enclosed speech.
I esteem Mr. Yancey highly, and have known
him long and favorably. * * * Mr.
Breckinridge is not Mr. Yancey.
I love the Union, but the South better. If elect
ed the Union, under my care, shall never be dis
seminated.
Yours, respectfullv,
John C. Brekinridge.
Dr. J. T. P. C. Cohoon, E. City. N. C.
In commenting on the foregoing, the editor of
the Southron says:
“The letter has been shown us, from which we
took the above extract. In the above extracts,
we have quoted the language of Mr. B. verba
tim.”
K. G. C.’s in a Fix.—A letter from Brownsville,
dated October 12th, says : —“We are just now in
receipt of a large number of people familiarly
known to you as Knights of the Golden Circle.
They have come from Maryland and Virginia, and
their appearance contradicts their actions, for
they do look like intelligent men ; but T submit it
to you if it is the act of an intelligent man to be
misled by such a humbug as Gen. Bicklev. These
men have been misled into the folly of coming
fifteen hundred miles to invade Mexico, on the
lying assurance of Gen. Bickley that he had a con
tract irom the Mexican Government to introduce
American volunteers into that country. The
statement has been denied a thousand times ; a
multitude ot cautions have been published offi
cially and otherwise, and yet there are to be
found men weak enough to contribute their mon
ey, and green enough to take a fifteen hundred
mile trip, to find at the end of their purses and
their journey, that the whole thing was an unmiti
gated, mendacious and criminal deception.”
Spanish Territorial Aggrandizement in South
and Central America.— Tne government have
been put in possession of information from a re
liable source, respecting Spanish designs and in
trigues to obtain a foothold upon this continent.
Her operations are said to be upon a grand scale.
It is clear, from the disclosures, that her designs
afe not confined to Mexico, but extend also to
Central and South America. She is understood
to have the co-operation of a leading European
power, which, should it become necessary, will
render her all the necessary aid. The administra
tion, being in possession of all the facts, will keep
a vigilant watch of her movements. The men
acing attitude of her fleet in the Gulf, her opera
tions in Venezuela, and the landing of a large
force upon Dominican soil, clearly indicates that
there is some truth in the report of territorial ac
quisition upon this continent, and in every other
quarter where there is a possibility of success.—
New York Herald.
The Secretary of the Navy has diricted the com
mandant of the Navy Yard at Pensacola to in
vestigate the charge recently made through the
newspapers against Lieutenant Stark, of the Ma
rine Corps, of punishing men by “crucifixion.”
If found to be true, the officer will be court-mar
tialed.
Col defferapn Davis stated in a speech recent
ly made by film at Oxford, Miss., that it was the
duty of the electors chosen to represent Missis
sippi in the Electoral College to cast their votes
for Breckinridge, Bell or Douglas, if by so doing
they could defeat Lincoln. g
Telegraph Extension.— From the Columbia
papers, we learn that Adams’ {Southern Express
Company have extended the telegraph lines from
Columbia to Winnsboro. It will soon be carried
through to Charlotte.

Soothing and Bracing.— There is no preparation in
existence whieh has such a soothing effect in cases of nervous
excitement as HOSTETTER’S STOMACH BITTERS. Al
though the fame of this renowned invigorator rests mainly on
its astonishing cures of Dyspepsia, Liver Complaint, and intes
tinal disorders, it is equally efficacious hi nervous complaints.
Thousands of ladies resort to it as a remedy for hysteria, flut
tering of the heart, nervous headache, \ ertigo, general debility
and all peculiar disturbances and derangements to which, as a
sex, they are subject. It cheers and lightens the depressed
mental powers, as well as strengthens the body, and its use is
never followed (as is the case where ordinary tonics are ad
ministered,) by any unpleasant reaction. oct27-dA wlw

BOASTER & DERRY
Have the pleasure of advising their customers and the
public, that they have completed arrangements to obviate
two objections that have operated against their receiving so full
a t hare of patronage as they might otherwise have done. The
first, that of teingtoo far down town; the second, that of
having a fully competent and practical man at the head of our
mechanical department. The first has been cancelled, by our
fitting up at No. 52 Jackson street, opposite the warehouse of
M. P. Stovall, and near the Bell Tower, a large and convenient
Workshop. The second, by securing the services of Mr. E. E.
SCOFIELD, who will have charge of the mechanical depart
ment of the business. We are thus prepared, from the central
position of our Shop on Jackson/treet, and the one in the rear
of our Store on Broad street, to accommodate both up and
downtown. We have a large additional force of workmen,
and shall be prepared to execute any style of work known in
our line, with promptness, and at moderate prices. We most
respectfully solicit a share of public patronage.
BUCKMASTER & DERRY.
N. B.—We are not ambitious of occupying a “leading posi
tion” in the trade of this city, and do not propose to put forth
any “new effort,” or trick of legerdemain to gain it, or to oust
others from it, but shall try the old-fashionea way of getting a
living by doing good work, at as cheap a rate as we can afford
it; and though we can’t claim much practical knowledge of the
business in behalf of our “senior,” we do think we have the
right to claim with emphasis in behalf of our junior—he haring
had 33 years of constant practical experience—2s of them in
this city, and not subject to a discount of 11 years spent in the
cotton market. We are not disposed to boast of our “facilities”
to get goods so cheap as to make it impossible to be “ under
sold yet we feel very sure that if others sell cheaper, it will
hardly be “possible” that they will receive “ fair remunerative
prices.” As “ hope springs eternal in the human breast,” and
as we are also stimulated by the lines learned in our school
days, “ Tall oaks from little aoorns grow,” Ac., Ac., we shall
indulge the hope that at some future day we may approximate
so near “ a lending position” in the trade of our city as to
make It a question not entirely “ beyond controversy” whether
it shall be retained and monopolised by those who so confident
ly appropriate Its exclusive occupancy to themselves. We
trust our friends will pardon us for entertaiaing such ambitious
hopes. oct!3-dtf

may be allowed to express nis satisfaction in view of the fact
that of the numerous purchases made of him by planters, gene
rally for the purpose of making comparative tests with other
fertilisers, not one case has come to his knowledge where our
Fertiliser has not shown a decided superiority. Planters who

and are ordering (some of them) as much as fifty tons, for use
the next season. This fact speaks for itself. Wc have discov
