It is really and truly a mutual company, every member of which is a stockholder of the company, and a beneficiary far beyond his premiums paid in, even if along life should bo his. We could mention cases that have occurred already in this city, whero the benefits arising to the families of deceased brethron has been realized beyond peradventure ; The company is represented in this city by Brethren W, J. Pollard and C- F. Lewis, members of the Board of Directors, who will cheerfully enlighten all Master Masons in good standing of the aims and objects, the organization of the company, and its executive officers, who reside at the city of Macon, where the annual meetings of the company* are held on Thursday after the last Wednesday in October in each and every year. “Georgia State Lottery.” This institution is probably a swindle 1 It pretends to have been gotten up for the benefit of the “Masonic Orphans’ Home,” to be located in the city of Atlanta—and we are anxious to know and to have some one inform us where the large sums of money that must have been received from the pockets of the ignorant and unsuspecting since the commencement of its opera: ons— has gone to? Where is the “Musoi-i Orphans’ Home” erected? How •,y orphan children of Masons have hem received iu this Home ? How many of this destitute class have been relieved from want and distress by this grand speculation of a few men who would “steal the livery of Heaven, to serve the devil in ?” The Grand Lodge of Georgia, if we are not misinformed, has repudiated the concern, which was right; and it is what every other Mason ought to do. Our observation is, such institutions are a curse to the people of every community in which they are located, and we only wonder that any “mock human ity’’ should influence State Legislatures to grant such a franchise to any parties or for any purpose. When the new Constitution of Georgia becomes a fixed fact, as it will most assuredly, then Lotteries will no more curse our State or our people. Tlic Public Schools. Superintendent Calvin has kindly furnished us with the following Rules and Regulations adopted by the Board of Education of the County of Richmond : THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS. At a meeting of the Board of Education, held Thursday afternoon, 2d inst., it was ordered that the following rules be observed in the Public Schools of this County. I. Each Teacher shail provide himself, or herself, with a suitable record book, in which shall bo kept a list of the pupils in attend ance ; their respective ages, and the names of their parents or guardians. The names of the boys and girls shall be kept separate, in alphabetical order ; and said book shall be subject at all times to the inspection of the Superintendents and members of the Board of Education. 11. In schools where two sessions per day arc held, the rolls shall be called at 12 m., and 4p. m.; in schools where there are but one session per day, the roll shall be called at 12 tn. 111. The use of tobacco during school hours is strictly prohibited. IV. Pupils must be neat and clean ; their books covered, and kept in order at their desks. V. The school room shall be kept in per fect order. VI. The scholastic year is divided into two terms —Spring and Fall. Tho firmer shall begin on the Ist Monday in January, and end on the last school day in July ; the latter shall begin on tho 2d Monday in September, and end on Friday before Christmas of each year. Education. Below we have the correction of a mistake we unintentionally made on yesterday in writing of the Frcedmen’s Schools in this city, and we are pleased to be set right by Mr. Warner, the Superintendent, as follows, viz : American Missionary Association, ) Mission Home, > Augusta, Ga., April 3, 1868 ) Editors of the National Republican : Slits: Permit me to correct a statem .t which appeared in your issue of this morn ing, under the head of “Board of Public Schools:” “That in the Freedmen’s Schools, there arc some 1)00 children receiving the benefits of schools, under the auspices of the Bureau.” There are no schools in tho city of Augusta under the auspices of the Bureau. The American Missionary Asso ciation, whose Headquarters are at 53 John street. New York, has under its care some 900 pupils in the city of Augusta. This Society has aire -dy spent $22,000 on the schools of this city, besides a large amount which has been expended in food, clothing and rent, in supplying the imme diate necessities of the poor. And in not a few instances have the whites shared in these charities. Hundreds of dollars have been speut in this way, drawn from the private purses of those whose hands have personally administered to these wants. Nor are these benefactions confined to the city of Augusta. The American Missionary Association, whose funds are wholly made up by benevo lent contributions at the North, is support ing to day, 111 Teachers and Missionaries in the State of Georgia, to say nothing of the vast number sustained in all the other South ern Stales. Credit to whom credit is due. Yours, respectfully, J. K. Warner, Supt. Mission Schools, Augusta, Ga. Samuel Gilman Courteney, Eiq., Os Charleston, S. C., died on Thursday morning last at his residence in Charleston, S. C., aged 43 years, after a very brief illness, the cause of which we find in the Daily News and append to this notice. We will only remark that Mr. Courtenay tvas engaged in the Book trade, was an Alderman of the city, President of the Hibernian Society, and had filled various public offices with honor to himself and pleasure to the com munity, of which he was a much cherished member: The immediate occasion of his last illness was the performance of one of those acts of philanthropy for which he was ever ready. In passing a private residence on Broad street, about a week ago, his attention was attracted by the confusion and fright which had been occasioned by the explosion of a lamp. Hastening to the scene of the acci dent he busied himself actively iu averting further damage, and in his efforts became rather heated. On returning to the street he encountered a current of cold air, to the effect of which is attributed the origiu of the congestive chills which caused his death. Thus cut down in the prime and vigor of his manhood, his loss will be deeply felt and regretted in our community, where his life had beeu recognized by all as that of a good and eminently useful citizen.

It is a matter of considerable interest to Atlanta and the travelling public to know that Mr. E. B. Pond has again taken the National Hotel, and is ready to play “Mine Host” to his old friends, and as many new ones as will honor his house with patronage. While he had charge of the National before, it was kept most acceptably to tho people. Ilis table was always well supplied, and his rooms kept in neat and cleanly style. It was a most agreeable home like hotel, and we have no doubt he will keep it now us he kept it before. —New Era. We are glad to see again, the smiling face of our friend E. B. Pond, in tho office of the National. Pond knows how to keep a hotel, and we kuow the National will be in the future, what it was in the past under his administration, a first class hotel.— Opinion. We endorse the above notices in full. If Mr. E. B. Pond don’t know exactly how a Hotel should be managed for the comfort and pleasure of his guests, then we don’ 1 think other iolks need to try their hand. Neatness, cleanliness, good food well cooked, comfortable rooms and good attention, certainly are the best recommendations that a hotel keeper should desire, and these things Mr. Pond is eminently popular for having about him. [From the Savannah News and Herald. Couaecratioa of Hie Illstiop of the Diocese of Georgia. The solemn and imposing ceremonial of the consecration of the Rev. John Watrus Beckwith, D. D., late Rector of Trinity Church, New Orleans, elected to fill the vacancy in tho Diocese of Georgia, occa sioned by the death of the lamented Bishop Elliott, took place in St. John’s Church yesterday, and wasettended by distingushed clergymen of the Episcopal Church of other cities, the Protestant clergymen of our city, and a large concourse of citizens. Attracted by the interest of the occasion, long before the commencement of the services, the church was densely crowded. Little after eleven o’clock the procession of laymen, ministers and bishops entered the church, while the choir, comprising some fifty persons, ranged on either side of the altar, chanted the lxxxiv psalm. The procession moving up the centre aisle, advanced toward the altar, when the laymen and vestrymen of Christ and St. John’s churches took seats on the right hand side ; the ministers, about forty in number, taking their places immediately in front of the altar. The five Bishops, whose presence added to the impressiveness of the solemn ceremonial, advanced and took seats within the chancel, the Bishop elect taking his seat within the railing. The rectors, ministers and bishops were appro priately robed in their sacred vestments. The following is a copy of the printed order of exercises : conseokation ot* THE Rev. JOHN WATRUS BECKWITH, I).

Bishop Wilmer, of Alabama, delivered the conaecralive sermon, his text being the loth and 16th verses, 3d chapter ofSt. Paul’s Epistle to Timothy. The sermon was elo quent and impressive, catholic in spirit, affording a lucid exposition of the doctrines of the Protestant Episcopal Church. At tho conclusion of the sermon, Doctor Beck with advanced to the chancel, when he was received by Bishops Wilmer, of Louisiana, and Atkinson, of North Carolina, by whom lie was presented to the Presiding Bishop, Green, of Mississippi, and the associate Bishops. Tiie Rectors in attendance read the call of the Macon Convention, also of the Standing Committee of the Parishes in the Diocese of Georgia, certificates of high character from Committees of Parishes in the Diocese of Florida, and the certificate from the Bishops of the United States. The Litany was then chanted by Bishop Young of Florida, the responses by the choir and the congregation. The Bishop elect recited his pledge, and was examined in accordance with the rules of the Church by Bishop Greeu. The Veni Creator was then chanted by Bishop Young, and sang by the choir. The “Imposition of Hands” was then performed. The Bishop elect, after receiving the Bishop’s gown and and surplice, knelt while the five Bishops placed each a hand upon his head, Bishop \oung pronouncing a benediction. This solemn ceremony over, the Bishop rose, ad vanced arid took his place among the Bishops- At the close of these solemn ceremonies, alter a portion ot the audience had retired, the Sacrement of the Lord’s Supper was ad ministered, and with Gloria Patri , and Gloria in Excels is by the choir, and tho bene diction, the beautiful and impressive service closed. flic Bishops present on the occasion were Bishops Young, of Florida; Wilmer, of Louisiana; Wilmer, of Alabama ; Atkinson, of North Carolina; Green, of Mississippi ; the latter being the presiding liishop. The Missionary meeting at Christ Church, in tho evening, was au appropriate close to the interesting ceremonies of consecration and installation. The Church was crowded to its utmost capacity. The Rev. Mr. Clark, ol Augusta, advo cated the cause of Missions in au able and forcible address. He was followed by Bishop Wilmer, of Louisiana, and Bishop Beckwith, who made eloquent and earnest appeals in behalf of the Mission fund. The amount contributed 4y the large congrega tion, we understand, was about two tlioua and dollars. NEW ERA ITEMS. “Dixcr,” (Scruggs of the Opinion) — Did you uol propose to borrow a certain sum, on certain terms, from a certain candidate for Governor ? Be cautious how you answer, for the dots are close at baud. Nxuro Votes.— The so-called Democracy are moving heaven and earth all over the State to secure the negro vote in tho com ing election. Alas for the respectability. Daddy Sneed is snorting like a mad bull over the ineligibility of Irwin to hold office. If Sneed should take a fit and go up the spout, what would become of all the respec tability f Bellow on, grandady—we like to hear tho sweet mnsio of your roaring. Won’t Come in.— The Augusta Constitu tionalist, and some other of our Georgia ex changes fail to hoist the name of Irwin for Governor ? What the deuce can be to pay 1 Every devil of them would have gone in for Gordon. “Although the devil be the father of lies, he seems, like other great inventors, to have lost much of his reputation, by the continual improvements that have been made upon him” by a set of sneaking Georgia news paper correspondents. A great man once said: “Never chase a lie. Let it alone, and it will run itself to death. I can work out a good character much faster than any one can lie me out td ft.” When Dingy is defeated in his plans of electing Irwin, he declares those defeating him contemptible. So the fly in ASsop’s fable thought the “Bullock” contemptible. Go in, horse fly ! Murderous Outrage at Tuscaloosa. We arc reliably informed by a party just from Tuscaloosa, that Mr. Randolph, editor of the Monitor, has just murdered a freed man with a bowie knifej We expected as much from the blood-thirsty articles in that atrocious rebel sheet. Now, what will the military authorities do in this ease ? We have full confidence in Gen. Sheppard, and hope that ho will speedily investigate this matter, and bring the guilty party to imme diate punishment by a military commission. If turned over to the civil authorities escape from proper punishment may be considered a foregone conclusion. Mr. Allen A. Williams, colored register, informs us that he was taken out by a por tion of the Ku-lvlux Klan, of Tuscaloosa, a few days ago, which outraged his person in au infamous manner. He bears numerous marks of their treatment, and is in this city, where he has made a proper representation to Gc-n. Sheppard. In their flight, the Ku- Klux left several of their sheets.—Mont gomery Sentinel. K. K. K. Some days ago a gang of Ku-Klux left documents at the house of Patrick Haney, a loyal man, living near Waverly, Tenn., warning him to leave the country; but he paid no attention to the notice, and went on with his work. Subsequently a large company of men, disguised and armed, dragged him out of his house, about mid night, carried him to a creek three miles distant, tied a rope round his neck, and dragged him up and down the creek, pulled out his hair and beard, kicked and whipped him, and left him lying insensible in the woods. He was found the following Evening, by his wife, in a most horrible condition. —Montgomery Sentinel. AUGUSTA MARKETS. Friday, April 3—P. M.

General Meade has pronounced Judge Irwin ineligible, and the anti-Reconstruc tionisls have advertised for an available candidate. Will Ranse Wright run. Congressional. Washington, D. C., April 3d, 1808.— There was no legislation in either house. The Court resumed the evidence regarding the President’s speeches delivered to the Committee ot the Philadelphia Convention, asserted by the press aa a copy corrected by Col. Moore, the President’s Private Secre tary, and one was introduced from ihe orig inal stenographic notes, which was admitted. The Cleveland speech was next taken up. Cbnse ruled against the admission of the Cleveland leaders. The version, as published, was a condensation from long hand notes. Drake appealed. The appeal was sus tained—3s to 11. Johnson and Norton voting aye, and Trumbull nay. Two other versions of the Cleveland speech were ad mitted. Most of the day was spoilt in discussing the art of reporting. Iwo attempts to adjourn to Mondav were defeated. Adjourned. Items from Washington. Washington, D. C., April 3.—Strong, the alleged fugitive from Virginia (formerly released by Judge Fisher, on the ground that Yirginia was no State, and subse quently arrested on a requisition from Genera! Schofield) was discharged. The discharge was based on a defection in the papers. It was not shown that Strong was a fugitive from justice. Interesting points were not discussed, though incidentally Carter designates Schofield as Executive of Virginia. The District Attorney, Gen. Carrington, will have Strong rearrested when he can obtain a more complete requisition. Advices from Paraguay indicate important successes. The allied forces are in the roar of Hurnartce. The allies have forty thousand men, fourteen iron elads, and twenty wooden vessels. The Paraguans have hut twelve thousand men. Obstructions prevent the approach of the vessels. Uragua advices state that President Flores was killed. The Minister of War was elected as Fiores’ successor. Further Paraguay advices say the allies stormed the redoubt at liuneaita after a desperate resistance, capturing fifteen heavy guns and large stores. The House of Commons is divided on the Irish church question. The Liberals are sanguine, of course. The ministry, mean time, may appeal to the country or" dissolve Parliament. Impeachment has developed nothing new. Butler continues to do all the work, losing papers ocbasionally, apparently for the pur pose of keeping his associates awake. These frequent searches for Butler's missiiif documents employ his associates—they do nothing else. In the Cabinet to day, Thomas was not piesent.
