It needs not the announcement that dur ing the coming week the Rev. Dr. Beckwith will leave the city, to be invested with the Bishopric of Georgiu, to fill Trinity Church this morning to overflowing. Whatever words of parting the loved Rector may ad dress to his flock, not a syllable of them but will be treasured up through long year.s to come as precious memories of one called to another and higher sphere of Christian labor, says the New Orlean* Crescent of Sunday last. The rites of consecration will be adminis tered on the 2d prox. in St. John's Church, bavannah, by Right Rev. Bishop Smith, of Kentucky, assisted by Rt. Rev. Bishops Wilmer of Louisiana, Wilmer ot Alabama, Green of Mississippi, Quintard of Tennes see, Atkinson of North Carolina, and Johns of Virginia.

It cannot be that harm has befallen him, for the way had been prepared, and due care had been taken to explain to the ignorant unreconstructed that this was a sort of flag of truce, and must be respected. Where is Sergeant Bates, aud what has become of that flag ? 8o asks the New York Tribune. In re ply we would state that the Bates question was slightly discussed between two -well known War Democrats on Broad street yesterday. AUGUSTA MARKETS. Wednesday, March 25—P. M.

COTTON.—After several days painful inac tivity the staple revived to-day, under the influ ence of favorable advices. Some sales of New York Middlings wore made at 24{0., and one sale of 164 bales at 24c. Dealers’ faces already are beginning to relax, from tho rigidity caused by the decline. The market has been active and sales free. We quote New York Middlings firm, at the close of the market, at 24a24fc., and doubt if any amount could bo bought under tho latter figure. BACON.—The demand is trifling, and trade quiet. Stocks light and arrivals limited. Few sales have transpired, and these at irrogular rates, so we forbear from giving figures. CORN—Continues in statu quo, with light arrivals and moderate stocks. The demand is fair but sales are not heavy, at 51.23a1.25 for Prime Tennessee White, according to quantity. WHEAT—Is scarce, and in great demand. Reds especially are sought after, at $2 85a2.90 ; and Whites bring $3.10a3.25. FLOUR —Is active, at full rates.

Or, if he claims to vote on a certificate of registration in any other county of the State, he shall swear that ho is the identical person named in said certificate, and as to residence the same as above.

JAMES ATKINS NOMINA!ED FOE CONGEESS. Kingston, Saturday, March 21st. Pursuant to the call of the Republican Executive Committee for the Seventh District, the delegates assembled at Kings ton, on Saturday, the 21st instant, to nominate a Republican candidate for Congress. Afl o’clock p. m., the delegates assembled in the Depot, aud the meeting was called to order by Captain Jas. Glenn, of Whitfield county, who moved that the Hon. Benj. F. Bigelow, of Polk county, be elected the permanent Chairman of the Convention, and Col. Sheibley, of Floyd county, permainent Secretary. Letters were then read from Hon. Wm. Markham and Col. Broyles, both declining to allow their names to go before the Con vention for the nomination. Col. Sheibley’s name having been mentioned for tho nomination, he, also, in a short address, declined being a candidate. A Committee of five, on credentials, having been appointed, then made their report of the following named gentleman as delegates, allowing each county the same number of voters as it had repre sentatives in the Constitutional Conven tion : Fulton County —G. W. Evans, James L. Dunning, L. A. Pond, W. H. Jennings Austin Wright, Andrew Jackson, Micheal Cargile. Whitfield County —Robert Bentley, Jas. Glenn. DcKalb County —James Walker, B. D. Shumate. Gordon County —D. G. King, A. A. Buck. Floyd County— D. S. Bentley, W. B. Ilig genbotham, W. H. Webb. Cobb County —Wells B. Whitman, Dix Fletcher, A. Fay. Murray County —S. F. Jones. Catoosa County —A. E. Murdock, Isaac Johns. Polk County —Benj. F. Bigelow, Bartow County —Aaron Collins, W. K. Harris, W. L. Goodwine, Bryant F. Leak. Total number of votes allowed, 10. Nominations being next in order, Mr. W. H. Jennings, of Fulton, nominated Mr. James Atkins, of Fulton, and Mr. King, of Gordon comity, nominated Mr. James L. Dunning, of Fulton. The delegations then selected their representatives to cast their votes, and, on motion of Mr. Evans, the vote was taken by ballot, resulting as fol lows : Dunning 5 Atkins IQ Mr. Dunning not votiug. Upon motion of Mr. Pond, Mr. Atkins was then declared the unanimous choice of the Convention. Capt. Glenn, of Whitfield, then offered the following resolutions, which were unani mously adopted: Eesolved, That we fully endorse the Con stitution as recently framed by the Conven tion at Atlanta, under which the acts of Congress of the Dnited States. Eesolved, That we fully endorse the nomi nation of Hon. R. B. Bullock for Governor, and pledge ourselves lo Lis unqualified sup port. Eesolved, That the proceedings of this Convention be published in the New Era, at Atlanta, and such other newspapers of tho District as are favorable to reconstruc tion. After three round cheers for Bullock and Atkins, Col- Atkins, in a short speech, thanked the Convention for the honor done him in giving him the nomination, and pledged himself to the full support of Col. Bullock and the reconstruction ticket. Mr. Dunning being-next called for, made a shoit speech, pledging himself to the earnest support of the nominee of the Con vention, aiid urged all to accept the Consti tution proposed by tbe Convention as the quickest road to civil government and peace and order. The Convention then adjourned sine die, and as the delegates passed out of the depot they were greeted by the growls of a few drunken Democratic Kangaroos, who mis took the crazy effect of the bad whisky they had drank for the promptings of sense or common decency, and as the poor things knew no better they were not noticed. This was the only expression of disorder given during the session of the Convention, which otherwise passed off with the greatest har mony. A Word to Single Women.— ls a man wipes his feet on the doer mat before coming into the room, you may be sure he will make a good, domestic husband. If a man, in snuffing the candles, snuffs theip out, you may be sure that he will make a stupid husband. If a man puts his handkerchief on his knees while taking his tea, you may be sure that he will make a prudent hus band. In the same way, always mistrust the man who will not take the last griddle cake, but prefers waiting for the next warm batch. It is not unlikely that he will make a greedy, selfish husband. The miserable old scalawag, J. R. Sneed, ol the Macon (Ga.) lelegraph, is getting up a series of political "On Dits” for the amusement of the so called Demo cracy.

This man has made himself the general guardian and feeder of dogs and cats without owners. Friendless passies and dionerless mongrels leap for joy at his approach. About one o’clock in the morn ing, when it is high ’change among the bow wows, and the cats are holding their balls and other reunions, he comes forflTloaded with such provisions as they like, calling in the tenderest voice, “ Petits, petiis !” They gather around him with frantic joy, mee-ow ing, pawing, leaping, flourishing their tails, and rubbing against him. Happy the cat who is distinguished by his touch, and proud, indeed, is she whom he picks up and pets. More join him as he goes along, until they reach the Boulevard Malesherbe, and here there is a wonderful party, indeed. Cats are seen climbing every wall, comingi out of every alley, yelling and mol-rowing with delight, jumping in diabolical sara bands, and keeping up to match a concert infernal. The benevolent man opens his bundle, and then a scene begins which beggars description. The big cats dash in furiously, and snatch from the maigrclets ninets, or starved kittens; and their rnpacity, the growling of the full led. the scoldings of the cat feeder, the fightings, spittings, the growlings, aud yells, a mix'ed feeling of tenderness • and ferocity, devotion and pillage, lit perhaps by some transient moon rays of a winter’s night, all make a scene worthy of a Caliott. The worthy cat feeder employs continually in his house a cook expressly to prepare food for bis cats, lie knows the names of his flock, whom he feeds, pets, commands, and rules. ...... The French are peculiarly clever in delicate scientific tests; but no nation on earth excopt tho Germans could ever have thought of so singular and effective a trial of mechanical apparatus as was used lately upon anew arrangement for venti- House of Commons of the North , German Parliament. When the apparatus was all in order, the three hundred work men who had been engaged upon the building, which is an entirely new* one, were shut up in , the Council Chamber’ furnished with cigars and tobacco, and ordered to enter upon a general fumiga tion ; which command tho tobaccu-lovin<* Tepons joyfully obeyed, delighted at so easy and pleasant a. mode of earning their wages. After three hours the doors were opened, and the thermometer showed a rise of only one degree in the temperature of the room, while tho atmosphere was comparatively unaffected by the enormous amount of tobacco burned there. Such is the statement, at all events. If it be true, the Berlin legislators may congratulate themselves upon possessing what does not elsewhere exist-a thoroughly ventilated Council Chamber.— N. K Sun. .....One of the most delightful places in the world to live in must be Blanco county, Texas. Though the registered vote of Blanco is 112_ white and 8 colored, yet the District Cierk, in making return of the cases of crime in the county since June, 18G5, puts down “83 persons indicted for murder,” “j assaults with intent to kill,” “20 robbery,” “27 theft of stock," and a fair show of other crimes. The 83 indicted for murder have been thus disposed of; “10 acquitted, 40 indictments quashed, 31 continued for ser vice, 2 dismissed.” The Texas paper which contains these official returns quietly re marks: “The number of murders probably accounts for the small registration of voters.” Douglas Jekbold’s Ready Wit. One evening, in a mixed company, Jerrold and some friends were playing a game to test their knowledge of Shakespeare. Each person was to name an object, it mattered not what, to the guest next to him, and the latter, under the pain of a forfeit, was to give some quotation from the poet to illustrate it. To Jerrold was given the word “treadmill,” and hardly hesitated a moment before reply, ing, in the well known language of Lear, “Down, thou climbing sorrow 1” Tub Empress on the Stage. — One of the pleasantest incidents of the French Court stage occurred when the Emperor Napoleon jokingly kissed the Empress Josephine, who was acting a little operatic part in the thea tre in the palace at St. Cloud. She demurely stepped forward and remarked that any one of the audience who was dissatisfied with •the performance might retire, and have his money returned to him at the doors. The consequent laughter was uproarious. The Beard a Century Ago. —“I remem ber,” says Smollett, in his Letters from Italy , “a student in the Temple, who, after a long and learned investigation of the beautiful, had resolution enough to let his beard grow, and wore it in all public places, until his heir-at-law applied for a commis sion of lunacy against him, when he sub mitted to the razor rather than run any risk of being found non compos.'' Beating Barnum.— Orator Henley ex celled Barnum in his way. Once he attracted together to his chapel an immense number of shoemakers, by advertising that on the following Sunday he would lay open to the public a mode by which a pair of shoes might be made in four minutes, and demonstrate the case and certainty of this new method by doing it in the face of the audience. He did so by producing a pair of boots, and cutting the feet off ! A Witty Rkpi.y.— We have heard of the witty reply of a slave who had stolen and eaten one of his master’s turkeys, when he was accused of crime. He repelled all idea of wrong, saying that “ Massa’s property only changed form ; he has less turkey, but more nigger.” [Advertisement.] For the Cure of Fever Afne, Dumb Ague, Chill-Fever, Intermitting Fever, old Mismanaged Agues, Bad Effects of Agues treated or suppressed with Quinine, Cholagogue Arsenic, and other deleterious drugs, Humphrey’s No. 16 is superior.

Richmond, March 25.—1n the Convention a resolution was introduced appointing a Committee to inquire in the conduct of Judge Underwood, President of the body. The resolution embodies a letter fron John Ilawxshurst, Chairman of the Republican State Executive Committee (published in the papers this morning), in which he states that Underwood, in a conversation about raising means lor the Republican party, had said to him that fc “we” favored Chase for President, Senator Sprague would give one hundred thousand dollars for the use of the party ; and also, that two men in the State would give one thousand dollars each for nominations to Congress. As Judge Underwood was not present the resolution was laid over till Wednesday next. The disfranchise question was again taken up and an amendment offered disfranchising all who voted for secessiou candidates. It was strongly opposed by several leading Re publicans, including one colored member. They quoted private letters i4ceived a few days past from Stevens, Sumner, Wilsou, Washburn, Kelly of Pa., and several other prominent Radicals, advising against any further disfranchisement than was contained in the reconstruction acts. The number dis franchised by the proposed amendment was estimated at between fifteen and fifty thous and. No final actiou had. Washington Items.
