It is very easily understood—thus : When gold sells at 1.40, greenbacks are worth, in coin, 71) cents to the dollar, and so with any other amount in the table, as shown in the opposite column. Found. The body of Henry Jackson, the colored man who fell injo the canal on Sunday and was drowned, was found Monday night, about 11) o’clock, near the bridge on Broad street. His neck was broken. His watch and pin were upon his person. Coroner Rhodes held an inquest yesterday, and the following is the verdict of the jury : “That the deceased came to his death from injuries received on his person by an accidental fall from the canal bridge, on McKinnie street, between the railroad stable and Greene street, on Sunday night, June 7th, 1808. He jumped from the street cars while in motion, and we attach no blame to the officers of the Augusta and Summerville Railroad Company.” We learn that the body of the deceased was taken in charge by the “Y. and B. Club'’ of young colored men of the city, and every attention paid that was required. The deceased bore a good character, had a good situation, and was just on the threshold of life, being about twenty years of age. Recorder’* Court. A well known citizen was arraigned before his Honor, yesterday, charged with a viola tion of the 30th section of the General Ordinances permitting a nuisance to remain on a lot iu the rear of Broad street, iiiird ward. The fact of the nuisance *was not denied by the defendant; but he made the point that the law had settled that the ucupant of the premises, and not the land lord, was responsible. The Court overruled the point, fined the defendant twenty dollars, and admonished him that a similar penalty ]p>uld be imposed for every day the nuisance continued. The defendant gave notice that he would appeal to the Supreme Court, and the Recorder answered “Very well.” Another citizen, up town, plead guilty to »violation of the 2d saction—hitching his horse to a tree boxing, (or which he paid one dollar and costs. We are informed that there were several applicants at the Clerk's office, yesterday, for copies of the General Ordinance. * Superior Court. One civil caso was tried on yesterday— Aitemas Gould vs. Jonathan Miller. IJc nilant, in 1802, borrowed a certain sum of money from plaintiff, eto. His Honor, •ii'lge Gibson, charged the jury that s, iuity demanded that defendant should pay to plaintiff, now, in the ratio that .federate currency was worth at the hffle of the loan, and a verdict was ren vwed accordingly. Die Criminal Docket was then opened. 1 o Hcott, freedman, was convicted of Mtting fire to an out-house, and sentenced 0 p « h >tentiary for one yea* William Pearl, white, was convicted for treeny (herse), and sentenced to Peniten- U&r J for two years.

This is a good move, and the exumplo will lie followed, no doubt, by other roads. Tickets at S3O for one thousand miles are issued, and so arranged that holders can travel from oue mile*upwards, at their option. Whatever the dialanco travelled is-deducted from the face of the ticket, and the Company roinains bound for the rciidueof tho thou sand miles. This is an excellent arrange* meet, convenient nnd valuable to those whose homes are along tho line and whoso business calls them often to Atlanta. Compound Interest Notes. Secretary McCulloch has given notice that ull compound interest notes intended for conversion into three per emit, temporary loan certificates must either bo presented to the Assistant Treasurer, at New York, who has the full charge and control ol the issue of such certificates, or to the Treasurer of the United Slates at Washington, who will issue certificates, which, on presentation at tlie office of the Assistant Treasurer at New York, will entitle the holder to receive such certificates in exchange. Compound interest notes intended for redemption in lawful money must bo forwarded t> the Treasurer of tho Uuited States in Washing ton for that purpose. “The Knight!, of the Iron Chair.” As will be seen by tlie following abstract, the above organization, as far back ns Oc tober 31st, 1839, foreshadowed wliat has already been accomplished by the Republi can party of Georgia, in Convention assent bled—that is, the abolishing the laws ol “Imprisonment for debt,” and “Usury laws,’ as the relies of barbarism ; and bus but one other object to be accomplished, i. the abolitiou of capital punishment for crime— when, as will be seen by the resolution of the "Knights,” held on the Ist Juno instant, the Chair will be disintegrated by its own agreement. We feel assured that this other relic of the ancient laws of the old dispensa tion will also bo removed from the statute books, when a proper consideration of the enormous amount of evil that has attended it in this country is had by our people- Hard labor for life, solitary confinement, etc., can very well be substituted : THE KNIGHTS OF THE IKON CIIAIU. This Order was organized in Augusta, October 31, 1839. The following was ils platform : Whereas, We do not wish to interfere, or iu any way come in contact with tho two great political organizations of-the country, still it is the opinion of this Order that the time has arrived when efficient efforts should be made to repeal the following laws, which are on our statute hooks, to wit : Capital Punishment, Usury Laws, <md Imprison ment for Debt, as being inoperative and unjust. First. We are firmly convinced that the fearful increase of homicide in our State has resulted from a conscientious opposition on the part of Jurors coolly und delibe rately to enforce the death penalty, and as au evidence of it, we have but to refer to the fact that the most depraved und blood stained have been turned loose upon the community, who, if some other punishment was known to the Penal Code, would he placed where they could no more molest and injure their fellows by their outburst of passions, and where (if innocent) they could await the developments of time for their deliverance. Second. That the value of money, like any article used by a civilized people, should be governed by the laws of supply and demand, and therefore protest against having our statute books longer encumbered by an enactment against asking more than a fixed rate of interest for the use of tbe same, when said enactment is daily violated as not being at present appreciable in ils bearings.and necessities, to tlie transactions between man nnd man, in the present enlightened and progressive age- Third, That while it is far from our inti, lion to shield fraud, crime, and double dealing, yet we unhesitatingly express the opinion that the laws now in force, for the collection of debts, seem rather to have been enacted to oppress and tyrannize over the honest and unfortunate, than otherwise. We therefore advocate the repeal of all such as are in restraint of personal freedom. Office of run Ikon CiiAtit, 1 Augusta, June 1, 1868. j The following resolution passed ununi niously : Resolved, That wo appeal to all good citi zens to unite with us in petitioning our next Legislature to do away with capital punish ment. This accomplished,our order can disband, not otherwi -e. By order of the CIUIUMAX. AUGUSTA MARKETS. Tuksday, Juno 9 -P. M. FINANCIAL. —-Wo have no changes to report iu Gold, but we learn that Guorgia Railroad Stock has advanced to day to 83 and markot steady. Tho prospect of a dividend of 1 por cent, for six months, perhaps, hus had something to do with the iucreaso of value. COTTON- Is in statu yno and may bo said to bo dull upon the Liverpool and Now York news of to day. The Now Y'ork reports aro 30c, dull and declining; and tho Liverpool, dull and declined a fraction. Sales uot over 5,000 bales— Uplands, IIJ. CORN—Is held at yesterday’s quotations, with a dull market. WHEAT AND FLOUR.—Wo see no reuson to alter quotations. BACON AND LARD-—Hold their own—ex •opt when the hot woatber sorter melts tbe articles. Trade is generally vory dstll. [From the Circular of Wm. liryco St Cos. Hew York tot loti iscvleiv. New Y’oiik. Juuo 5, IS6S. Our last Circular reviewed thu market to the 29th ult., when wo quoted Middlings at 31c in this market, and 11 id in Liverpool—both mar kets steady. On Saturday, tlie Cable advised Liverpool as steady, with sales ot 10,000 bales. Our market was quiet with prices fairly sup ported. Monday was a close holiday in Liver pool, and tho volume of business transacted hero was very small; tho only demand was from spinners, and on tho sales made, tho market was quoted Jo lower. Tuesday was likewise a eloso holiday on tho other sido, and the rumors of heavy shipments from Bombay caused some pressure to sell at a concession of Je. But little business was brought about oven at this decline. On Wednesday, Liverpool advnoced Id, with sales of 15,000 bale?. Our market qnlokty re sponded, and n fair business of 3,300 halos was accomplished on a basis of 31o; tlie advance (luring Iho day being fully one cent on-Mid dlings and a Iriflo more on the lower grades. On Thursday, Liverpool was reported quiet and steady, sales only reaching 8,000 bales. Tho ill heaßb of Napoleon was generally believed to bo tho cause of tho dullness in that markot. A very small business was accomplished hero without any chniigo in price being noticeable. To-day the market bus been steady In Liverpool and this city. Uplands closed on the other sido at 11 id, with sales of 10,000 halos. Cable advices (tec* ourlset bye •omoTWtl buxine** was transacted. Tho saloi of tho four tUya foot up 51,000 bale*, of which 46,000 wont to the trade, 6,000 to exporter*, and 4,000 to xpeouiatora. Stock in port foots up 648,000 bales, 371*000 of which aro American. Cottou afloat for Groat Britain aggregates 507,000 bales, of whioh 04,000 arc irom this country. No new eleuiont has been introduced into the cotton question since our last circular, and in general terms the position is unchanged. There is a largo deficiency rUiblo in xuppiy, and tho efforts of the spinners to depros* Liverpool and New York seem to have euliuiuated liyt woek, and their xoecess is to bo moaeured ay about lid in one market, ana flic in the other. From the extreme point of depression there has been a rally of id in Liverpool. Within two months the prospect of our crop will begin to form a very important olemeut in tho problem of price, and if Manchester ounnot soo any increaso over the last crop in this country, spinners will take courage and increase their productions accor dingly. If on tho othor hand the prospects of our crop favor a yiold of 2,500,000 to 3,000,000 bales, thon prices will inevitably give way long before the cotton actually comes to markot. With tho light at present before us, wo think that tho growing crop will more likely fall short of 2,300,000 halos, than overrun 2,500,000 bales. Chilli|>»’ Provision Kxchaugc. 1 Cincinnati, Juno 5, 1868. Editor National ftrpubliciin : Tho Inactivity which characterized tho pro vision market at tho dato of ray last circular, continued throughout tho week, and tho market closes dull. Iu ordor to effect sales, holders were obliged to grant concessions, and prices ore again lower, though holders, in many instances, are unwilling to accept the rates now current, and it would be difficult to fill orders of any magnitude at my quotations. One cause of thu light consumptive demand is, that sumo timq since, consumers, in anticipation of an advance, bought freely for forward delivery. Tho bulk of these contracts, however, havo been Oiled and holders :«ro expecting an increased demand soon, and a rally in prices; and there is no anxiety to Soil, except by timid and weak holders. Tho orders which aro now being received arc chiefly .or small amounts, and there is no inclination at present to speculato.

How the Relief acts.—ln a few minutes the patient will feel a slight tinging irrita tion, and tho skin becomes reddened ; if there is much distress in the stomach, the Relief will assist nature in removing the offending cause —a general warmth is felt throughout the entire body, and its diffusive stimulating properties rapidly courses through every vein and tissue of the system, arousing the slothful and partially paraly zed glands and organs to renewed and healthy action ; perspiration follows, and the body feels increased heat. The sickness at stomach, colds, chills, headache, oppress ed breathing, thesoreness of tho throat, and all pains, either internally or externally, rapidly subside, and the patient falls into a tranquil sleep, awakes refreshed, invigor ated, cured. It will be found that in using the Relief externally, either on the spine or across the kidneys, or over the slomich and howels, that for several days after a pleasing warmth will ho felt, showing tho length of time it continues its influence over the diseased parts.

IIAI-14 , 172 Broad Stroot. mh24-ly |ayj2TEXEGRAPH.^ Congressional. Washington, June 9.— House: The Chineso reception attracted an immense crowd. The usual proceedings occurred. Bcatnan reported a bill from tho Recon struction Committee dividing Texas into three States. Ordorod printed. A bill inaugurating Southern State officers was read threo times, and passed by 115 to 31. A. bill was reported constructing a rail road and telegraph from Mobile to New Orleans, the - consideration of which was postponed till to morrow. Tho Committee on Foreign Affairs was directed to inquire whether tho establish ment by Mexico of free ports at Matamoras and other towns on the Rio Grande, was not controry to tho commercial rights of this country. The tax bill was resumed, and the House adjourned. Senate. —Mrs. Eliza Potter, of Charleston, South Carolina, petitions reimbursement for forty thousand dollars expended for the support of Union prisoners by herself nnd family during the war—referred to claims committee. The Louisville Board of Trade ask a reduction of the whiskey tax to fifty cents. The Omnibus admission was resumed. Alabama was added to the list. Vote 22 to 21. Republicans voting nay—Cole, Conk iing, Edmunds, Fessenden, Frelinghuyscn, Howard, Iloive, Morgan, Morrill (Vermont) Trumbull nnd Yates. A motion to strike out the provision nullifying the Georgia relief clause was discussed all day. The argument took a wide range. It was claimed that without this clause Georgia’s Constitution would have been defeated, and Congress would defeat the will of the people by nullifying it. Others argued that,aside from its unconsti tutiouality, it was the first step toward the repudiation of the National debt. The argument indicated that the Senate will undoubtedly persist in nullifying the relief clause. Without a vote tho Senate went into executive session and adjourned. — « <■' Wasli ngton Items. Washington, June 9.—lndian war ru mors increase. Sheridan has sent arms to the frontier to arm the settlers. Colonel Leavenworth, who hitherto defended the Indiaus, now favors withholding amnesties aud prosecuting severe measures- The following is a hill passed in the House to day : Be it enacted, etc., That the Legislature of each of the States of Arkansas, North Carolina, South Carolina, Louisiana, Geor gia, and Alabama, elected under the Consti tution thereof, framed and adopted in pur suance of the provisions of au Act for the more efficient Government of the rebel States, passed March 2d 1867, and the Acts supplementary thereto, be, and hereby is authorized to meet on such days as may have been fixed either, cither in such Constitutions, or by proclamation of any officer authorized to convene said Legislature by the Convention which framed such Constitution, and if no day shall have been fixed as aforesaid, or if tho day so fixed for the meeting of tho Legislature of either of said States shall have passed or shall have so nearly arrived before the passage of this act, that in tho opinion of the Governor elect there might not be time for the Legislature to assemble on the day so fixed, such Legislature may be convened within thirty days after the passage of this act by the Governor of said State. Sec. 2. That whenever either of said States shall be admitted to representation in Congress, the Executive and Judicial officers of such State duly elected, and qualified under th i Constitution thereof, may be inaugurated without delay, and the gov ernment ol such States shall thereupon be transferred to the civil authorities thereof. Sec. 3. That it shall be the duty of all civil and military officers exercising au thority in either of said States to afford all practical aid and protection to the officers of such State in carrying out the provisions ol this act; and any such officers who shall wilfully prevent, hinder or delay the meeting ot either of sni I Legislatures,or the inaugura tion of any of said State officers, or of any other civil or military officer, uuder either of said State authorities, shall be guilty of a felony, ami upon conviction thereof before any Puderul or State Court of criminal jurisdic tion, shall he punished by imprisonment not exceeding ten years, or by a line not exceeding ten thousand dollars, al, the discretion of tbe Court. Woolley is still confined, waiting Bullet’s convenience. The proprietor of the Metropolitan Hotel had Woolley’s seventeen thousand one hun dred dollars iu the Committee’s room, where Butler counted it. The Woolley Affair. Washington, June 1). —-Woolley’s state ment, given on the ground that Hook’s evidence relieved YVoolley from the confi dence involved by professional relations, shows that Woolley was here to influence the Ways and Means Committee, regarding the whiskey tax,iu Hook’s interest. Woolley’s proceedings in this respect are not fully stated, but no corrupt operations are evident. Seventeen thousand and one hundred dollars of tho questioned money aro and have been in the safe of tho Metropolitan Hotel. Ii appears from affidavits that Woolley, Hook, and others were at tlie Metropolitan Hotel, talking politics aud proposing bets- Woolley, threw the money on the table, requesting Hook to hold it, and then left the room Hook took no notice of Woolley’s remark or tho money. VanValkenburg, regarding neither W oolley nor Hook in a proper condi tion to have charge of so large a sum, took tho money and deposited it, with his own valuables, in the safe of (he Metropolitan Hotel. The parties separated, and had no communication during several days, during which lime the discordant cvidefico of Woolley and Hook was taken. The whole affair-amounts to nothing. The New Orleans Squabble. New Orleans, June 9. —The Republican, to-morrow, will contain a proclamation by the Convention Registration Board, assert ing its authority as paramount to that of the Commanding General, und charges that the latter has transcended his prerogative in promulgating the election ot State, Parish and Munieif*l officers; in naming the time for said officers to qualify aud take posses sion of their offices; in assuming power to convene the General Assembly; in assuming the power of appointing persons to fill oflices where the persons elected cannot qualify, claiming tho right ol the persons hnviug tho highest number of votes, who can qualify, to tilt said offices; aud by re fusing to send the election returns to this Board; aud concludes by notifying all persons whom General Buchanan’s order has de clared elected that the Constitution of Lou isiaua, meaning the Constitution adopted by the late Convention, requires them to qualify aud'enter upon their offices as sot forth iu a former proclamation Irom this Board; that any orders, from any source, directing tlm contrary, are illegal and not binding, and parties ho 'attempting to take cffico will lay themselves liable to action at law by parties ejected, as well as risk the certainty of re movnl from office. General Grant's interference with and suspension or General Buchanan’s action in the elcotion matter has led to this open defiance ami contempt ol the authority of the Commanding General.
