Ue«se hat accepted the nomination tuade
by the little caucua recently held at M aeon.
So aaya a Macon paper. We haren’t seen
it. Irwin has nominated himself and ac
cepted the nomination. So says the inimit.
able Steele, of Atlanta. Now the question
is asked by a Macon paper, called the Jour
naland Messenger: “Why should both of
these men ran t” Very appropriate is that
question, and we can answer it—thus . un
both of these candidates I Bun them through,
it they will each promise, upon their honor,
to “rw« until the last day, in the morning,
and go through the polls like a doso of
salts”—but not otherwise. Query: If the
recent Convention did so wicked a thing as
to make the best Constitution Georgia ha g
aver had, and these Tories of the Ben Hill
Democracy are so ravenous about it—why
ruu for any office ? why try to “fill up space
and occupy nothing,” as an old friend of
ours used to say —as they are trying to do
so valorously. Gentlemen, if you would
only for a moment think over this matter,
we are sure you would be ashamed of your
barefaced inconsistency. Curse a thing,
and then “roll it under your tongue us a
sweet morsel.” Oh! but ye are jetcets
fitted for auy swine’s ears that would suffer
the infliction.
Important Notice.
We earnestly request any person desiring
to send money to this office, for any
purpose, to forward it either by postoffice
order or Southern Express—the latter
preferred.
On no account send it by letter, as we
are continually receiving complaints of
money having been sent which has never
reached us. Friends, take warning, ts
Spring and Summer Fuslilona.
We have received from Mme. Demorest
a “Bulletin of Fashions” for the Spring
and Summer of 1868, which surpasses any
thing of the kind ever attempted in this or
sny other country. It comprises a magnifi
cent mammoth sheet, admirably grouped
and colored, a book of descriptions, and
short articles full of useful information to
dressmakers, and ladies generally, and ten
full-sized patterns, including the novelties
of the season. This is a boon to modistes
and those remote from the Metropolitan
centre, especially as it is afforded at a price
($2.50) which brings them within the reach
of all. We notice that Mme. D. has in
corporated the children’s with the larger
bulletin in this issue, without increasing
the price.
This beautiful plate may be seen at Mrs.
Pughe’s store, 190 Broad street.
Tennessee mineral*.
At different places in East Tennessee,
where there are veins of copper, zinc, or
lead ore, there are found excavations that
must have been made hundreds of years
before that section was settled by our
people. So far extensive are some of the
excavations that to make them now, with
all modern facilities, would require an
expenditure of thousands of dollars. The
rocks seem to have been fractured by
heating and throwing water upon them.
Some persons suppose that these excavaj
tions were made by Spaniards, who were in
search of precious metals.
Prophetic.
We find in the correspondence from
Atlanta, of the New York Times , the
following. “The “Moderados” have gone
and done it, and have nominated “two old
fossil judges
As I close my letter, I learn that Judge
Bigham has declined a nomination for
Governor from any party whatever. This
leaves the field clear for the Macon Com
mittee and the Moderados. Two or three
old fossil Judges are mentioned as “com
promise men” but the enthusiasm is grow
ing for Gordon.
AUGUSTA MARKETS.
Thursday, March 19—P. M.
FINANCIAL.—We quote as Brokers’ rates ;
Gold, buying, 1.39 ; *selling, 1.40. Silver, buy
ing, 1.30 ; selling, 1.33.
COTTON.—The staple has behaved demurely
to-day, being very|quiet and languid. Wo learn
of but sow offerings, and transactions are limit
ed. We leave the market at its close weak, and
quoto New York Middlings 24c, with a down
ward tendency.
CORN.—The stock is limited, while demand
is fair and improving. We quote Prime Tennes
see White, $1.23a1.25 from depot.
WHEAT—Is very scarce, and is in groat de
mand. Reds are more sought after aqd com
mand $2.80a2.90 ; Whites bring $3.10a3.15.
BACON.—The dealers in this article aro
wearing long faces, for where so lately tho busy
hum of trade resounded tbe inquiries aro now
few and far between, and transactions are very
limited. Prices, too, are weak and irregular
we therefore forbear from giving figures.

Science Again Triumphant!
No. 33 Broad Street, ]
Augusta, Ga., March 18, 1868. )
This is to certify that I had been suffering
with Rheumatism in my neck and shoulders
for about ten days prior to March 14, 1868,
at which time Dr. Roberts cured me with
one Magnetic treatment,

For the Cure ol Fever Ague,
Dumb Ague, Chill-Fever, Intermitting
Fever, old Mismanaged Agues, Bad Effects
of Aguos treated or suppressed with Quinine,
Cholagogue Arsenic, and other deleterious

a preventive of Ague it may be relied upon.
Taken by persons travelling through ftn
aguey or marsh district, or residing in such

the disease.

POLITICAL.
It is reported that General Burnside has
reconsidered his acceptance of the Bepubli
can nomination for Governor of Rhode
Island, and will decline it.
Among the latest batch of Presidential
candidates occurs the name of Ex Governor
Boutwell, of Massachusetts, one of tlio
managers of the impeaohment.
Tbe Connecticut election takes place on
Monday. April 6. The vote last year was:
for English, Democrat, 47,565; for Hawley,
Republican, 46,578. Majority for English,
957.
The canvass in North Carolina grows
lively. On both sides the terms liar, pol
troon, knave, etc., are freely employed to
designate political adversaries.
The New Orleans Picayune mentions a
report that General Hancock is to be
replaced by General Godfrey Weitzel. The
latter, it says, “has many good qualities,
and despite his being a favorite with
Butler, had many friends among our citi
lens.
Os four hundred and sixty four towns in
which local elections had recently been
held the Republicans carry two hundred
and eighty four, and the Democrats one
hundred and eighty. Last year tho Re
publicans carried threojhundred and twen
ty seven, and the democrate one hundred
and thirty seven.
j£ln a speech delivered at Concord, N, 11.,
on the Friday previous to the election, Ex-
President Pierce said : “I rejoice that the
victory before us, and now near at hand, is
to be no party victory, but a triumph
achieved by earnest conservative men of
all parties, uniting their strength in a great
struggle to rescue the Constitution from the
hands of the destroyers.”
The Fort Wayne (Ind.) Gazette says that
tho following correspondence recently oc
curred between a Democrat of that city and
the White House:
“To His Excellency, Andrew Johnson,
President oj the United Stales: I am
ready to assist you with men and money at
a moment’s warning. The Democracy of
Whitley county are with you.
“Col. * * *’»
To this offer tho President’s private
Secretary sent the following reply :
“To Col. * * * —Dispatch received.
Who the devil are you ?”
The La Crosse Democrat says that the
New York World “is every day doing the
Democracy more injury than any Radical
journal in the country,” and “ with its
damnable heresies is accomplishing untold
evils.” It also calls its New York contem
porary a “ viper.”
Governor Bullock.—We find the follow
iug in the Utica (New York) Herald:
“Governor oe Georgia. —The Republi
cans of Georgia have nominated for Gover
nor, Rufus B. Bullock, a native of this
State. He was for several years manager of
the House line of telegraph in this State,
and won many friends by his affability and
business capacity. He was for some time a
resident of Richmond, Va., as agent of the
Express Company. For ten or more years
he was in the service of the same company
in Georgia, and has more recently been
elected President of the Macon and Augusta
railroad. lie has proved his energy aad
capacity and discretion in every position he
has occupied. During the war he was a
Union man, and he believes in the free
institutions which have enriched the North,
and he wants them domesticated at the
South. He is yet a young man, and we trust
will be the next Governor of Georgia.”
A Southerner’s Impressions of Brazil
and the Brazilians.—The Monroe (La.)
Journal publishes a letter from Mr. C. G.
Matthews, written at San Paulo, Brazil, from
which we make the following extracts:
You wish to know if I am satisfied here.
I will say this, that I can make an abundance
to eat with less labor than anywhere else I
have been, but I do not like the associations.
I don’t like the barefooted and naked from
the waist up women, and men with their
shirts outside of their pants. I don’t like
the bicho and bayona and the one hundred
fleas now racing up and down my legs, and,
though I and mine enjoy tho very best
health, in a climate favorable to longevity, I
can’t say that I am satisfied, or willing to
spend the remnant of my days here; in time,
I may be reconciled and then I can
write to you and give you the reason* for the
change. There is a class in ou» country who
would do well here, and would, I think, be
pleased with the country, I mean those who
can hardly earn a support by hard labor,
and who care very little for society ; here
they cau live “fat” by working one fifth of
their time, and if industrious, could make a
little competency besides. If you wish to
come to Brazil you can very easily marry a
coffee plantation and get a very nice woman
to boot (the better classes are well educated,
and some of them very pretty) ; otherwise it
will not suit you, as you don’t like to work.
Some of the Americans express themselves
delighted with the country, and probably a
good many of my Monroeville friends would
like it better than I do. To the lover of
hunting, I would say that game is scarce
and hard to get at, and a man would starve
to death lor sport and support who depended
upon hunting. Fish are plentiful on the
coast, but very scarce here. I could see
more fish in crossing half a dozen streams
in Florida than I could catch here in a life
time.

Congressional.
Washington, March 19.— Senate —The
bill relieving the disabilities of Tennesseans
discussed. During the discussion it trans
pired that the Senate Judiciary Com
mittee are considering a bill relieving peisons
who have been loyal since 1862, also that
Senators do not consider the fourteenth
article a part of the Constitution. The
matter was postponed, and tbe Tax Bill
resumed. Tbe bill was restored to its
original shape after a struggle to retain the
tax on Refined Sugar and its products, and
Turpentine. It was stated during the debate,
that Turpentine yielded nearly a half mil
lion revenue. Sherman, in discussing the
matter insinuated that the taxes would
result in deficit, but feared the public economy
could only be enforced by deficiency of
means. The bill finally passed—it requires
the concurrence of the House in reduction ot
tax on petroleum and bituminous substances
one half, and forbidding a drawback on the
exportation of articles exempted after the Ist
of April, and one fifth of one per cent, on
sales of untaxed articles above ten thousand
dollars. Adjourned.
House.— Dawes introduced a bill for
constructing a railroad and telegraph line
from Mobile to New Orleans. Referred to
the Committee on Post Iload3.
The Postmaster General was called on
for a list and amount of compensation of
special agents, and a list of complimentary
commissions, and why issued.
A bill providing for vacancy in Chief
Justiceship was passed.
The Freedmen’s Bureau extention was
resumed.
Maynard said he had received threaten
ing intimations from the “ K. K. K.” of
Tennessee.
It was denied during debate, positively
and indignantly, that General Howard was
an amalgamationist. Goneral Howard’s
wealth was denied.
Wood said he could prove some of these
things on Howard.
A motion to table the bill was defeated
by a vote of 34 to 100. The bill passed by
a vote of 96 to 37—a strict party vote. The
bill continues the Bureau one year from
May next, and authorizes its re-establish,
ment in Kentucky and Maryland.
The Appropriation bill was resumed and
discussed to adjourment.
Washington Items.
Washington, March 19.—Stevens will
oppose the new Alabama bill, though his
vitality depends so much on stimulants that
the Democrats have little reliauce on his de
fection.
Alabama’s admission was not taken up
to-day. There is a serious hitch in the
matter. Poland proposes anew election in
sixty days. It seems conceded that Alabama
won’t be admitted without another election.
The Impeachment Managers are engaged
to day with persons who heard the Presi.
dent’s Cleveland speech.
The President has daily consultations
with his counsel.
Gen. Jeff. C. Davis commands Alaska.
Appropriations for the State Department
decreases one half.
Customs for the week ending 14th, three
and a half millions.
Hon. David Wilmot, Judge of the Court
of Claims, is dead.
The diplomatic bill withholds pay from
Mr. Harvey, Minister to Portugal, for past
or future services.
The Herald attributes the Radical change
regarding Alabama's admission to their fear
that she would vote the] Democratic ticket
at the next Presidential election.

between the brig Aurora and the bark

Mysteries of Past Ages Revived!

Healing th.e Sick
BY THE
LAYING ON OF HANDS,
OR
ANIMAL MAGNETISM!
PROFESSOR ROBERTS, LATE OF NEW
Orleans and Memphis, the great Magnetic
Healer, will treat all manner of Diseases and
Afflictions, not incurable, at the AUGUSTA
HOTEL, Augusta, Ga., until May Ist, 1868.
By Animal Magnetism we claim that the dis
eased and deranged action of the nervous and
vacnlar systems are restored to a perfect equilib
rium much more readily than by any other means
known to the medical world, either in the present
or the past ages. ‘ Nature must do the healing,’’
is the saying of every sensible and honest physi
cian, and that “all we can do in case of sickness
is to aid Nature.” Tbi* Prof. Roberts aims to do
by the great science of Animal Magnetism, and
that, too, without drugs! It is the only system of
the medication that has God as its authority and
example, or that can be sustained by science or
common sense.
Consultation free. Letters to be answered mnst
be accompanied with a stamp. For testimonials
see or pend tor circular.
Prof. Roberts treats successfully the following
named diseases, together with many other forms
of human maladies not herein specified, viz:
All diseases of the Brain, Rheumatism, Nervous
Debility, Neuralgia, Weak Spine, Curvature of
the Spine, Inflamed Sore Eyes, Paralysis, Weak
Eyes, Partial Bliudness, Dropsical Tumors,Ulcers,
Scrofula in its varied forms, Consumption, Dia
betes, Weakness of the Limbs, Bronchitis, Lobs of
Voice, Palpitation of the Heart, Diseases of tbe
Liver, Kidneys, and Bowels, Dyspepsia, Falling
of the Womb, Suppressed Menses, Catarrh, all
kinds of Sexual Diseases, Impurities of the Blood,
etc., etc. Paralysis aud Deafness are the most
uncertain of all diseases to core, although patients
afflicted even with theee terrible maladies will be
more or less benefltted, if not cured, by Magnetic
Treatment.

Augusta, Ga., March-12,1868.
I hereby certify that I have been partially para
lyzed for four years. Four mouths of that tune I
was not able to make a step, or even so much as
move one of my toes on either foot, and was en
tirely destitute of feeling in my legs.
I was examined by forty-eight Confederate
Army Surgeons, all pronouncing me incurable—
having Curvature of the Spine, which produced
paralysis. I commenced taking treatment of Pro
fessor Roberts, March 4th, 1868, and now, after
taking nine treatments, by Animal Magnetism l
feel like a “new creature!” I can now stand rip,
and walk any desired distance, without crutches
or canes, which was utterly impossible )or more
than four years before seeing Dr. Roberts.
For reputation and responsibility, I refer those
interested to Mr. VV. A. Ramsey. Mr. Edward
Rodgers, Mr. Jolm M. Clark. Mr. Nicholas Young
blood, and Mr. John Houston, all of Augusta, Ga.
My address is Edgefield Courthouse. S. C.

Augusta, Ga., Feb. 29th, 1868.
This is to certify that I have been treated by
Prof. Roberts for a dropsical tumor iu the left side,
with which I have been afflicted for the last Beven
years, and am confident that I am entirely cured,
not having experienced any of the unpleasant
symptoms which I did before the treatment, and
this by animal magnetism.

This certifies that I have been a great sufferer
with Rheumatism for five years, luy left ankle
being much swollen, very stiff and painful. I
was treated twice only by Dr. Roberts, at the
Augusta Hotel, February 18th and 20th, 1868, aud
now have not one symptom of Rheumatism or
pain in iny body. All the medicine I had taken
seemed to make me worse, and I never had
any relief until I was treated magnetically. People
may laugh.; but I have no more rheumatic
pams—that’s so.
I work in the Augusta Hotel.

Atlanta, Ga., Feb. 12,1868.
I have been a hopeless invalid for the weary
space often or twelve years.laboring under a
combination of dreadful diseases which bare long
since been pronounced incurab,s. I had of late
grown rapidly worse, until three days since I was
brought to this city on a bed, being entirely unable
to sit up, for the purpose of consulting the far
famed Prof. Roberts. After tbe first treatment,
which was only a few minutes, I was free of all
pain and able to walk anywhere, and to-day I feel
so well and strong I cau scarcely realize that I
am tile same being who was so feeble and suffer
ing so much three days since. I can never express
my heartfelt gratitude to the man whose wonder
ful skill has thus relieved me of so much inexpres
sible sufferiug. May God bless the Doctor
wherever he goes, is my humble prayer.

Atlanta, Ga., Feb. 5,1868.
To whom it may concern: This will certify that,
for eight months past I havo been affiicted
with Neuralgia iu the right side of the face, aud
most of the time suffered most excruciating pain,
during which time I have sought relief in vain
from the regular medical profession ; and I further
certify tliat I was relieved the first time I was
treated by Prof. Roberts, aud apparently perma
nently cured after being treated the third time. I
most confidently recommend him to all similarly
afflicted. J. B. LANIER.
Atlanta, Ga., March 7th, 1868.
Dr.ll.R. Roberts: —This is to certify that I
have, for live yearj past, been afflicted with
goitre. Physicians pronounced it incurable, aud
from them I obtained no relief, bnt upon the con
trary continued to grow worse, until treated by
you four times, by Animal Magnetism, in January
and February, 1868, since which time it has almost
disappeared, and I am entirely relieved from suf
fering with it.
I am very kindly, yours, forever
Witness to tie above: P ’ PUQH ’

Atlanta, Ga., March 3d, 1868.
This certifies that I have suffered exceedingly
With a large tumor on the left side of my face tor
twenty live years. During this age of torture it
has been removed twice by painful surgical opera
«?i D8 ’ °nly seemed to aggravate its growth.
Wlieu Dr. Roberts came to Atlanta I took treat
ment by Animal MagnetisUk , aud have been
greatly beuetitted b : him—in point of truth, more
than by the entire twenty.seven “regular” doctors
who have attended me.
Under the treatment, the tumor softened and re
duced in size, the hearing iu my left ear has been
restored, and my left arm, whicli was almost use
less, has becu restored to its origiuat strength. I
cau now sleep on my left side—a thing I could not
do for many years before. I firmly believe if I
could continue the treatment the tumor would
entirely disappear. Mrs. J. G. McLIN.
Atlanta, Ga., March 6th, 1868.
Dr. R. R. Roberts— Dear Sir: We, the under

turn to our city. We do this no't only for the sake
of your society and that of your excellent lady
