C 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 In large cities the lists will not be published at all.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. James N. Ei.ls. [communicated. 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- [communicated. ] 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. January 17, 18CS- 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. [Advertisement.] K F. UlodSTctt 6c Cos.

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 Tho “Conservative” Itcsolve. At a large and enthusiastic meeting of the “Conservatives” of this city, held on the evening of the 4th instant, Mr. A. Itanse Wright editor of the Chronicle <f- Senlincl (Obstructionist), offered the follow ing Resolution, which received only one Black ball: “Ilesolved, That from the past history and •xemplary character as a gentleman and an officer of Major General GEORGE G. MEADE, we believe that be will, in the disharge of the difficult duties which do, volve upon him as Military Commander of District No. 3, so administer the laws which he is sent to execute as to render fair play and equal j ustice to all classes of our people; and to that end wetenderto him, in advance, the assurance that, to tho best of our ability we will sustain and support him in his new and trying position.” f [Advertisement.] Goods at it Sacrifice.

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. Congressional. 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. All quiet at the War Department. Internal Revenue to-day 460,000 dollars. For the week two million one hundred and seventy eight thousand. For the year one hundred and nine millions seven hundred and fifty-eight thousand dollars. The National Bank Finances are without material change. A strong pressure bearing to continue the Freedmen’s Bureau in full force in the States of Kentucky and Tennessee. Washington Items. 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 negroes who, having been provided with homes in the North and West, are abandon ing their places, and spending their earnings coming back. Virginia. Richmond, Jan. 18.—Gen. Grant is ex pected here on Tuesday to attend a meeting of the Trustees of the Peabody Educational Fund. Robert Stevens, colored, of Charleston, S, C., has entered suit in the U. S. District Court for this District, against the Rich mond & Fredericksburg Railroad for re quiring his wife to ride in a second class car when she had a first class ticket. He lays his damages at eighteen hundred dol lars. The Enquirer will publish on Monday the challenge sent by Col White, Republican membor of the State Convention, to General Butler, when the latter was in the city last week. It demands reparation for being ordered out of Butler’s Department during the war. The affair is still pending. White is one of the Republicans who refused to hear Butler’s speech. Cable Telegrams. London, January 18.—When the steamer Scotia landed at Queenstown, a strong po lice force went aboard and arrested George Francis Train, Grinnell and Gee, three pas sengers from New York, charged with being active members of the American wing of Fcnianism.
