Lovely and Lively.
' Vie were favored with beautiful weather,
ivesterday, and our principal t borough fates
presented a gay appearance. The street
cars, as usual, were well filled with parties
‘•riding 'round,'’ while lovely ladies and fino
looking men were promenading pleasantly.
The little ones, too, were out in full numbers
—and all seemed to tie enjoying the very
delightful weather.
Best of the Season.
It is rumored that the enterprising disci
ples of Fau:t, sojpurniug in this city, are
making arrangements to celebrate “the glo
rious Fourth’ - by setting up one of the best
editions of Pic-Nic ever issued. We venture
to jsy that the Typos and their guests will
hsve solid enjoyment, and leave an abiding
impression of their ability to chase old Time
in every case of the kind they undertake.
We have seen the proof.
Recorder’s Court.
There was a full attendance of spectators
alibis tribunal on yesterday, drawn together
h? an eighteenth section case, in which a
well-known citizen was prosecuted at the
instance of a lady in the First Ward. Able
counsel appeared on both sides. After a
patient and-impartial hearing, the defendant
was fitted and costs.
A couple of butchers at the lower market,
for indulging in a fight, each paid and
costs.
A citizen, for fast driving in the street,
plead guilty, and was fined $1 and costs.
Another plead guilty to a violation of the
eighteenth section, and paid s■> and costs.

Hawn citizens.
The programme is capitally arranged,
“'’"prising ! iv..rite galops, marches, ballads,

The admission to till part3 of the ball lias

Worthy of I tut tail mi.
We would remind our church-going lend
ers Unit one ol tho peculiur features of the
working of the celebrated Spurgeon's church
is, Hint its members go out among the lowly
and wretched, the poor nnd vicious, and not
only give Christian counsel, but also contrib
ute to their bodily necessities, thus creating
a bond of love and friendship between them.
tuiaily I’ic-Biict.
In this delightful season, “Pic-Nics” are
the order of the day. Most ol the Secular
and Sabbath Schools have had theirs—some
going to Schultz's Hill, and others to Berze
lin. Wc also notice that, since the comple
tion of the Augusta and Summerville Rail
way, many families go to spend a day at the
Sand Ilillj—taking their little cherubs and
big baskets. This is an excellent idea ; and
wo have often thought that the citizens of
the most favored climate in the world give
far too slight attention to wholesome recrea
tion. Man of business, turn your back for
twenty-four hours upon your counting-rootn,
office, or shop, nnd enjoy a “Family Pic-
Nic” iu some of the pleasant shady groves
of Summerville.
The Present Era.
If we were t > accept the asseverations of
certain newspapers, we would bo obliged to
admit that the country witnesses a “revolu
tion" at least once a day during the entire
session of Congress. At least once a day,
the Constitution, or some institution or
principle is overthrown, turned over, left
upper side down, mid put standing on its
head !
Amid all this topsy turvyness, however,
m titers appear to go pretty much as usual,
and every returning sun finds said constim
tiou, institution anil principle restored to
their normal position, none the worse appa
rentiy for the previous day’s “revolution.”
Reduced to unimaginative, mat ter-of fact
language, all this means simply that Con
gress is vigorously pushing forward its
patriotic work of reconstructing the Union,
and that its efforts are attended with success,
which foreordains till defeat and ruin of
the sham Democracy. That’s nil.
Atlantic and Cult Kuilroad.
The losses of the above road, resulting
from the recent floods throughout the coun
try it traverses, have been very much exag
gerated North and elsewhere, arid have
naturally caused a misunderstanding in the
minds of many as to the extent of damages,
and the cost of repairing them. Wo under
stand, from the Savannah Republican, that
the expenditures have been comparatively
small, not reaching the originally low esti
mates made, and that the road is now in
complete and satisfactory running order
from Savannah to Bainbridge.

I.cl them Cry.
We have been reading a long dissertation,
by a Frenchman, who contends that groan
ing and crying arc two great operations by
which nature allays anguish—that those
patients who give way to their natural feel
ings more speedily recover front accidents
and operations than those who suppose it
unworthy a man to betray such symptoms of
cowardice as to groan or cry. lie tells of a
man, who reduced his pulse front a hundred
and twenty six to sixty, in the course of a
few hours,by giving full vent to his emotions.
If people are at all unhappy about anything,
let them get into their rooms nnd comfort
themselves with a loud boohoo, and they wil'
feel a hundred per cent, better afterward.
In accordance with this theory, the crying
of children should not be too greatly dis
couraged. What is natural is always useful >
and nothing can bo more natural than the
crying of children when anything occurs to
give them either physical or mental pain.
Probably most persona have experienced the
effect of tears in relieving great sorrow. It
is even curious bow the feelings arc allayed
by their free indulgence in groans and sighs.
Then let parents and friends show more
indulgence to noisy bursts of grief—on tho
part of children as well as of older persons
—and regard the eyes and the mouth as
the safety valves through which Nature
discharges her surplus steam.
Affray at Dalton,
On Wednesday last a shooting affray came
very near proving fatal to two citizens of
Dalton, (Jol. Tibbs and Mr. J. 15. Christian.
The shooting was dond by a groeory keeper
from Cleveland, Tennessee, by the name of
J. 11. Scott. The difficulty had its origin
during the war. When the Federal army
took possession of Cleveland, John Tibbs, n
sou of Col. Tibbs, and at that time thirteen
or fourteen years old, was arrested, and this
man Scott, a citizen of Cleveland, volunteered
to guard him. Tho young man, Tibbs,
claimed that Scott performed the duty in a
way that he has not been aide to forget it,
nor forgive him.
This old difficulty was referred lo by young
Tibbs 011 meeting Scott, which resulted in
the shooting. Col. Tibbs, in an effort to
keep down the difficulty, was unfortunately
involved in the quarrel, and shot through the
leg just above the ankle. Mr. Christian who
was at the time near by, and having nothing
to do with the difficulty, was hit over the
right eye, the bell pawing through tho eye
brow* and flattening against the thick frou
tal bone which form* the upper wall of the
eye. Both gentlemen ere in e fair way to
rocorer. Scott waa immediately arrested.
rue Sou*-BlriU.
We hare already mentioned that our
beautiful street* are carpeted with the soft,
green velvet which ie ever the Spring’s con
fession ot her amorous temperament in the
first fervor of the rising blush, and the trees
and shrubbery are reflecting that deep, lower
strip of emerald which the steadily increas
ing farm lh of sunlight burrows front the
rainbow so beautifully and typically for the
adornment of the land. The vines that
trellis the front of many of our residences are
indicating their thanksgiving in the leafy
(lush—while nosegays of flowors are a grate
ful reminder of the deep dells and mossy
rivulet banks where cowslip, buttercup, and
violet (“though darling of the April rain !”)
just begin to thrill the brown, bare bosun of
the soil, like the intuition of maternity in a
Woman's breast.
But the pleasantest accompaniments of
this season of birth and beauty are the Song
Birds. Careless minstrels ns they are, they
never lurk in the train, but flit in the van
guard, o( the blithe yonpg year. Already
our public squares are musical with their
varied song, and thousands are nest building
among the old elms and bushes, with a world
of whistled counselling and twittering debate
among the boughs. It is, likewise, pleasant
to know that in this respect we have nn
element of gladness nnd cheer which is
attainable by the most lowly of our citizens.
Heel.
Os course we need not tell our city readers
that the beef we get from the “market” is,
generally, miserable. One would think
from its appearance that there is no grass
in Georgia. We believe that much of this
is attributable to our butchers, in not pro
viding lierdage or sufficient pasturage for
their beeves after they are delivered, and in
neglecting to otherwise properly care for
them. A beef that is bought to sell again
can not, with impunity, be kept from grass
ami water without loss to its owner, and
positive injury and injustice to the consu
mer. And such beef, too, is unwholesome.
Had we not the healthiest climate in the
world, at Augusta, this thing would tell in
other effects than producing a growl now
and then among our citizens. But we sup
pose, practically, it makes no difference, as
many are dependent on tho daily markets
for their meat, and they will have it of what
ever quality offered. Our butchers know
this as well as anybody can, and they, like
other trading people, are not slow to profit
by the necessities of others. And yet, we
venture to assert, that the one. among our
butchers who will take the pains to provide
well for his beeves, and at all times furnish
at his stall fresh, fat beef, will secure a
reputation in a little while that will make
him a fortune.
Cotton Culture.
Systems change, and new modes and new
channels are opened up to labor and to the
industries of the land—and lie is the wise
man who recognizes tho change and avails
himself of its benefits at the earliest oppor
tunity.
The South just now is passing through
one of these transition periods which will
frequently happen in this world of change.
Her system of labor and servitude is at an
end. It is useless to argue whether as ail
economical system slavery is better than
freedom, or freedom is better than slavery.
Leaving the moral aspects of this question
out of the nccoutit as a system of labor,
slavery is dead, and can not he revived—
tour millions of people onec in vassalage
have become free, and must henceforth
remain free. During the existence of slavery
large cotton plantations could be cultivated,
and the planter made rich from the products
of the soil. It may be done again. Butin
order to insure the success of carrying on
large plantations, two things arc ncccessary.
First, there should he sufficient wages to
command labor; and, secondly, a prico for
the staple in the markets of the world which
will enable the planter to pay the wages of
the laborer, and pocket a sufficient profit to
warrant the neccessary investment.
If this can not be done—and just now
there is much doubt about the success of tho
large plantation system—then let these
plantations be cut up into farms of forty,
fifty, or one hundred acres each, and those
who till the soil raise what will pay —a few
bales of cotton, perhaps, the cereals, fruit,
vegetables, etc. In short, let the Southern
farmer do as does the New England and the
Western firmer—make the most of the crops
that will pay.
The o-.v: ers of large tracts of land in the
South may sit down on f'neir plantations and
complain that their lands don’t pay. They
will nut pay unless they seek to make them
pay, by disposing of them in the way which
the times nnd the altered circumstances of
affairs demand. Some assert that tho freed
men will not work. Others declare that the
reason they will not work on the cotton
plantation is, they are not pan! a sufficient
sum to sustain life There is probably some
truth in both of these statements. It is a
fortunate circumstance, however, that neither
party can hold out forever. Hunger will
break through a stone wall—bread is a
necessity that no mortal can ignore and live.
Our firm conviction is, that the division of
the large plantations into small farms is the
system which will and ought to prevail in
the South.
