The Poat Office Departmant has given
official notice that it will discontinue here
after the advertising ol uncalled-for letter*,
and leaves the publication of the same to
the enterprise of such newspaper publisher
that chooses to print the list of names as a
matter of news. This is rather small busi
ness, aud indicates on the part of the Post
master General an ignorance of the newspa.
per business quite refreshing.
Arguing from tho same standpoint, the
Express Companies will probably discontinue
the publication as advertisements of their
periodical sales ot unclaimed goods, and
leave the item as a matter of news to be
picked up by some enterprising reporter.
The Banks and Insurance Companies might
also discontinue the publication of their
statements and lists of unclaimed dividends,
and the Courts stop advertising their writs
for the information ol absentees, unless these
several pieces of information are regarded
by a daily journalist as of sufficient public
interest to publish as news. Os conrse all
these thiugs are news, but only to the per
sons to whom they are especially directed,
and are. of no more consequence to the
general reader and newspaper subscriber
than the fact that A sells coffees aud teas,
or B keeps a dry goods store.
Perhaps it may be wrong to expect the
Department to notify individuals that letters
are awaiting their call at the post offices,
but they have done it for a good many years
without encountering any very severe ceu-J
sure from the public therefor. It is evidently
expected now, that newspapers will find it
so much to their pecuniary advantage to
publish the list as a matter of news, that
they will do it gratuitously. Possibly they
may ; but it scarcely seems worth while for
the Government to avail itself of this circnm
stance to save the small expense involve.!
In large cities the lists will not be published
at all.
A CARD.
The editor of the Chronicle & Sentinel,
18th instant, has thought proper to declare
that “this community had .neither respect
for, nor confidence in” the humble indi
vidual whose signature appears below.
I regret this uncalled-for assumption on
the part of A. Raxsom Wkight, an older
man than myself; but respectfully submit
that age is no excuse for downright slander.
If the circulation of his malicious para
graph were confined to “this community,”
where -is word is below par, I should be
silent. Inasmuch, however, as he has re
peatedly boasted of the large circulation of
his journal, justice to myself and otheis
seems to demand a few remarks—relative
to the animus of this maligner.
“The head and front of mine offence,”
with Gen. Wright, “hath this extent that
I am connected with the corps editorial of
the National Republican ; that 1 accepted
the clerkship of the City Council; and
have defended, to the best of my ability, the
character of the gentleman for whom he
cherishes an undying hatred—the Hon.
Foster Blodgett.
The assertion of Gen 1 Wright to the con
trary notwithstanding, I ant happy to believe
that I have not forfeited the respect of any
honorable chiton for attending to my duties
as a journalist, nor for consenting to fill a
city office where simply clerical duties are
required, nor for conscientiously defending
the character of a relative from a malicious
personal and partisan persecution.
I have only to add, that the outrage per
petrated by Gen. Wright is heightened by
the fact that, neither orally or editorially
have I ever sought to injure his reputation,
even when repeated opportunities were
thrown in my way. Nor shall I now imitate
his ungentlemanly and pernicious example,
—content as I am that a fair-minded public*
shall form their own conclusions.

As the Chronicle & Sentinel, of yesterday,
was much alarmed at the presence of a
“spy,” the poor creature was not aware that
his presence in that august body caused such
great consternation as to call forth epithets
unbecoming a newspaper that claims any
respectability. He is willing to pacify the
Chronicle and ease him of his scare. This
“poor creature,” scalawag, etc., learned from
a notice that the present Board of Mayor
and Councilmen were to be tried by a Com
mission sent by Gen. Meade, for alleged
charges of malfeasance in office. Now,
being a tax-payer, he was somewhat inter
ested in the matter, and wended his way to
the Courthouse with the throng.
By some arrangement the trial was post
poned, whereupon a resolution was offered
for gentlemen to remain, in order to devise
plans and means to facilitate the investing
tion, in which I heartily concur, and would
if requested, lend my aid in the accomplish,
ment of that object.
I wish to see “lair play,” and bad no idea
that a motion would be made to exclude any
part of the citizens of Augusta. Judge
Robertson very wisely did not entertain that
motion, which was entirely out of order, and
very deservedly received with hisses. I am
no Loyal Leaguer—never belonged to any
secret organization in my life—never at
tended any secret, loyal or disloyal, meeting
before yesterday. Lyons-

STOLEN NOTES.
Messrs. Editors : I noticed in your yes
terday’s issue, an advertisement of Mrs.
Auferman, of certain Notes having been
stolen from her, in which my natntj and Mr.
8. A. Frain were security.
As security on the note I was called upon
last week by a young gentleman, who I have
since learned attends to her private business.
He was very pressing for tho payment of she
note due January (ono-fourth amount—
sßl.2s). X proposed to him that we, the
security, would pay her SIOO.
On Monday the 13th inst. he returned us
the notes, and received his SIOO. On the
10th her notice appeared in your paper
of notes stolen. Jacoii R. Davis.

Geueral Hta4e.
This distinguished and able officer, now
commanding the Third Uilitary District,
stands firmly and squarely on the Sherman
Reconstruction Bill, and will neither turn to
the right hand nor to the left, for the accom
modation ot politioal factions or parties.
Insure VsnrLlle,
We would fain impress this duty upon
every oue of our readers. All will readily
acknowledge the paramount importance of
insuring their lives, but suffer one thing or
another to cause procrastination, It is par
ticularly incumbent upon all who have
families or others dependent on them—
never more so than now a days, when the
prospects of accumulating means are so
uncertain and deceptive. Better to deny
yourself mauy gratifications than not to
insure in au amount that will leave your
families a competence if you arc suddenly
taken from them. Life insurance com
panies present the best means for providing
against want in the event ol death.
Shaving Paper.
We enn all recall our childish admiration
of the fine ribbons that sprung from a
carpenter’s plane as he shoved it over the
smooth surface of the board ; and the idea
of making paper from wood is an old, if not
a practical one. Bnt we see that a down-
Easter has devised a plan of shaving strips
from ornamental wopds, such as maple,
black walnut, etc., and using them in lieu
of wall paper. A Boston paper says:
Avery delicate, simple, and beautiful
machine has been constructed, which will
take a portion of a tree, afier it has been
cut the right length aud width, and shave it
up into thiu ribbons as wide as a roll of
house pnper, making one hundred or one
hundred and fifty to the inch. These rolls
of wood are placed on the walls by paper
haugers with paste and brush, precisely in
the same manner with paper. The wood is
wet when used, and really works easier than
paper, because it is much more-tough and
pliable.
In these days, when variety is sought for,
one can finish the walls of his house in
different woods, to suit his taste. One room
can be finished in bird’s-eye maple, another
in chestnut, another in cherry, another in
white wood, and so on. Thus he has no
imitation, but the real, genuine article upon
his wall. The eye tires of set figures, such
as we have in ordinary paper hangings, but
never of Nature itself. The longer the
wood hanging remains on the wall, the more
distinct will be the grain and color of the
wood.
—Bishop Qointard, of Tennessee, recently
administered the rite of confirmation for the
Archbishop of York, the first time such a
service was ever performed in E . gland by
an American Bishop. Bishop Quintard is
having great success in raising funds to
endow the University of the South. It
seems to be taking the form of a testimonial
of brotherly feeling from England to the
people of the Southern Slates.

Chronic Cough und 't'lircalencd Con
sumption.
A married gentleman, aged thirty three, had
suffered from a cough for six months; to
such an extent as justly to excite the most
serious apprehensions on the part of his
friends. His congh was frequent, attended
with pain in his side, shortness of breath
loss of flesh, pale, sunken face, and at times
fever. All the remedies he had tried had
not availed to meet his case, or even relieve
his cough. He took one box of Humph
reys’ Cough Pills No. 7 without experiencing
but moderate relief; and, on consulting
Prof. Humphreys, was advised to use the
fever pills in alternation with the Cough
Pills. He did so, taking three or four pills
per day, and found immediate relief, and in
three weeks considered himself entirely well
having regained bis strength and vigor, and
being free from bis cough. f

From Atlanta.
Atlanta, Jan. 18. —General Meade sent
in a communication, dated yesterday, to the
Convention this morning, which, after ac
knowledging the 'receipt of a resolution
asking for pay, says s “I have this day
received information from the Treasurer that
there arc no funds in the Treasury at Mil
ledgeville. I have also been reliably informed
that some of the public institutions ol the
State have been suffering on account of the
non-payment of the appropriations for their
support. Whether this' failure of payment
has been on account of the want of means
in the State Treasury, or for other reasons, I
am not at present advised. I shall use my
best efforts to secure, without delay, the
means of paying the incidental expenses ol
the Convention, aud at least a portion of the
per diem and mileage of the members. If I
find, on investigation, that any funds which
should be in the State Treasury have been
plnced beyond my reach, I may deem it
necessary to suspend temporarily the pay
ment of a portion of the current salaries of
all officers who receive their pay either from
the State Treasury or the State Road. You
will perceive Irom the facts above stated,
that it ia out of my power at present to com
ply with the request of the Convention, much
as I desire to do so. In lieu of granting
this authority, I respectfully request that the
requisition of your Disbursing Agent may
be sent to me for my approval, that I may
gee that such funds of the State as may
become available be properly distributed,
according to the public necessities.”
The Convention refused almost unani
mously to suspend the rules to consider a
resolution asking the Federal authorities to
make advances for payment of the Conven \
tion expenses.
There was also tabled a resolution to
appoint a Committee of three delegates to
examine the State Treasury.
Sections eight and uiue of the “Bill ol
Rights’’ of the old Constitution were
adopted.
General Meade has issued an order
validating the Relief ordinance of the Con
vention, with the exception that execution is
not to lie stayed in cases of taxes or laborer’s
wages.

Washington, January 18. — Tlouse : The
entire day was devoted to set speeches on
Seward’s purchases and the Finances.
The members of the Military Committee
consulted Gen. Grant previous to their re
cent action adverse to reducing the array
Gen. Grant strongly advised against the
reduction. He said that over half the army
was now in the unreconstructed States, and
in Tennessee and Kentucky. There was a
serious lack of men both in the South and
on the frontiers, and in the department of the
Lakes barely enough men had been left to
take proper care of the Forts.

Washington, January 18.—The Senate’s
adjournment from Thursday to Monday dis
courages extremists.
It is almost certain that the bills changing
the Supreme Court and degrading Hancock
will fail to receive a two-third’s vote in the
Senate.
Senator Anthony’s paper opposes the
emasculation, and letters from soldiers in all
parts of the country are pouring in, protest
ing against the degradation. The bill im
pairing the army by mustering out Hancock
will probably die in the House.
Howard writes a letter remonstrating with
