The correspondent of tin* Balti more Gazette refers to all such as ‘renegades and vagabonds iu the Confederate service.’ Thank God, there are hut fivo from this city." If ten righteous men could not he found in Sodom, can it bo expected that more titan fief could be found in Augusta? Educational Meeting. We are informed that a largo educational meeting of the colored children, connected with the American Missionary Association, under the auspices o( Rev. J. K. Warner, Superintendent, will he held oil Monday evouing next, at Springfield Church. Mr. K. A. Ward, State Superintendent of liduea tion. Mr. M. S. \\ halan, Agent I>., I‘\, R-, & A. L., and the pastors of the several colored churches of the cits’, will be present, and addresses may be expected from them. AH the friends of education are cordially invited to attend, as the occasion will, no doubt, be a very interesting one. ‘•Jubilate l)ro.” We are amused at the death throes of so many of the “P. l).’s" in the modern Dem ocratic party. They are fantastic in their gyrations. The last new feature is the shouting over the promised “Amnesty Pro clamation of Andrew Johnson.” What will it amount to? Will it enfranchise a single man? Nary time. Your glorifications, our misguided friends, will not give you an office, nor will you get a chance to vote away your peace and prosperity, or that of your children and friends. Juke the other “amnesty” proclamation that so many of you paid so high to get the benefit of, you will find that “A. J.” is not the pardoning power in the United Stales —except for ihe thieves in the “whiskey ring,” and not then until they have been convicted and in, or on the wav to some State prison. County Court. Before Judge McLaws, on yesterday, there were several cases brought; one of them, the State vs. Frank Taylor, colored, charged with simple larceny, was disposed of upon Frank’s pleading guilty, by re manding him to Jail for sentence to day. The next case was that of the State vs. Jeff Thomas, colored, charged with larceny from the house. An examination was had, and -Jeff was committed for trial. Since his committal he has “ ’eluded to own up,” and will also be sentenced to clay to the very agreeable employment of pounding rock at the Work House. The next case was that of Dennis McMatt, charged with receiving stolen goods, in the shape of wheat, was examined and committed fur trial at the next term of the City Court. The last case, but the most interestiiig, was that of George Rogers, colored, charged with burglary in the night. He has been too smart, heretofore, to be caught at his crimes, but our Police nabbed him night before last, and secured two pistols of the thirteen stolen from the store of E. 11. Rodg ers, Esq., which were identified by Mr. U., and which George explains to be purchases from other parties. The Court could not sec it ia that light, and comm itted George to jail to await trial at the Sup erior Court session, next week. Evil doers had better look out, for the Police force in this city are not excelled in doing their duty by any other. They are sharp, prompt, and expert in ferreting out criminals, and hence the quietness of the city, and tlie very meagre roll of cases brought up. An Interesting; Case. Iu the Court of Ordinary, at Savannah, on Thursday, in the matter of the estate of James T. Paterson (formerly of Augusta), a case came up on the petition of Catherine A. Paterson, widow of intestate, for ne cessaries. When the will of Dr. Paterson was admitted to probate, three Commission ers were appointed to set aside tlie widow’s support. They reported to tlie Court that they had allowed $4,000, household furni ture, carriage and horses. Against this award, and on the ground that it was exces sive, a caveat was filed on behalf of the cred itors. This called out the petition for neces. saries, pending the appeal. The matter of petition was argued to-day by Thomas E. Lloyd, on behalf of the peti tioner, who took the. ground that tlie caveat was an appeal against the award of tlie Com missioners appointed by the Court, and that, under the Code of Georgia, pending an appeal, necessary support and maintenance shall he allowed the widow, and the Court should grant such maintenance. John M. Guerard, on behalf of creditors, argued that the caveat was not an appeal, within the meaning of tlie law ; and that, as the law required that the “Returns of Com missioners setting aside the widow’s support shall lay in the Court of Ordinary for six months before judgement shall be entered thereon,” for the Court of Ordinary to allow support at present, would boa violation of the law. Lloyd for petitioner ; Guerard and Payne contra. Decision was reversed. AUGUSTA MARKETS. Office National Republican, ) Fbidav, Juno 26—l'.M. j FINANCIAL.—GoId is buying hero a! 1.39, and selling at 1.41. Silver at the buying price of 1.32, and selling at 1.36a1.37. All kinds of Securities have advanced, and tho demand for good kinds can not b3 supplied. Georgia Rail road is worth 84, and Augusta Bonds 721. Money is abundant at 7aS per cent, per annum, but it requires “iron-clad” or “copper-bottomed and copper-fastened” paper to get it. COTTON—Is mostly in tho hands of specula tors or planters ablo to hold it; and while other markets aro fluctuating, and prices decline or get up a half to ono cent at a time, tho staple horc seems to he all serene, and holders require 30 cents as a maximum. reports from Now York and Liverpool. CORN, WHEAT, FLOUR, MEAL, BACON and LARD, hold their own when any trade can be made. Why are modern mechanics like clocks? Because they are hourly on the strike. . Congressional. Wasihnciton, June 26.— Senate: A peti tion by telegraph from California was presented, asking a reduction of the grapo brandy tax. Morgan offered a resolution, which was adopted, forbidding the exposition of works of art owned by individuals, in any part of the Capitol.

Jackson', Miss., June 26. —Jackson is ablaze with enthusiasm. Such excitement was probably never known in this State. A colored Democratic club from Brandon, numbering three hundred is here, to spend to morrow, our election day, and encourage colored Democrats. There will boa grand torch light proces sionjto night, two miles long. The whole State is giving large Demo cratic majorities. The Democrats claim 25,000 majority. Speeches were made by prominent politi cians to night. The Loyal League is parading the streets, about 200 in number. The Democrats are receiving accessions from the League. Brinson, a negro Radical candidate in Rankin county, joined the Democracy to day. It is reported from Vicksburg that A. Mygatt, the President ol the Republican Executive Committee in Mississippi, voted the Democratic ticket. Ten counties r*ll up Democratic inajori ties of from five hundred to two thousand. The Republicans have gained four of the river counties. The Democrats allow them all the river counties, ten in number, but none of tlie inland counties. Though all is enthusiasm there is no hostile demonstra tion, and the opposing parties treat each other with courtesy. Washington Items- Washington, June 26.—Fu1l Cabinet to day. McCulloch will not resign. It is very doubtful whether the President desires his resignation. The Senate adopted an amendment abol i.-hing tin; Director of Statistics. Customs for the week ending June 20th, two and a half millions. Stoneman, Commanding Virginia, was at the War Office to day. The Bank Tax. Washington, June 26—Severe contest over the taxation of bank deposits and cir culation. Alter many amendments the entire Section was stricken out in the Committee of the Whole, but the House non-concurring the amendments were restored to the bill in respect to the bank taxes, and is now the same as that reported by the Committee of Ways and Means, and in this shape it goes to the Senate. Address of Gov- Seymour. Nuw Youk, June 26. — Seymour addressed an immense crowd. He said that without a general amnesty and a restoration of suffrage to all the whites of the South, a great standing army must boa permanent institution. He said nothing in behalf or against any candidate. No man has becu named by the Democratic party whose election would not help the tax payer, pensioner, laborer, and bondholder. He appealed to all classes, North, East, West, and South, to a united effort to restore peace and prosperity, and to drive from power the enemies of liberty, honesty, honor, rights, and Constitutional law. Proclamation of the Governor of South Carolina. Charleston, June 26.—General Scott, the Governor elect, has issued his proclama tion, convening the Legislature on July 6th, in accordance with the provisions of the Omnibus bill, for the ratification of the 1 4th amendment. The Jews Address Napoleon. Vienna, July 26.—The Jews of Bucharest presented an address through Prince Napo leon, who is now there, to the Emperor of France, asking amelioration, and thanking the Emperor for his known liberality to all races. Aiming tlie Militia.

Washington, June 20.—The time for removing whiskey from bond, has been ex tended from one hundred days to six months, when it will he sold at auction at not less than tho tax. The surplus goes to the owner. The Tax Bill. Washington, June 26.—The Tax bill is concluded, except five pages, which refers to hanks and hankers. No important amend ments. Change of Base.

The Ready Relief is instantaneous ; its chief object is to relieve the sufferer from pain at once —its secondary function is to cure. If seized with colds, hoarseness, sore throat, diptheria, influenza, or suffering from rheumatism, wandering pains, lame ness, lumbago, pain in the kidneys, inflam mation ot tire bowels, bilious colic, the Relief will afford ease and comfort in a few minutes, and effect a cure in a few hours. See Dr. Radway’s Almanac for 1808. R. 11. R. sold by druggists. Rio i>E Janeiro, April 24, 1806. Messrs. Raymundo C. J.cite if - Bro. : Gentlemen—ln answer to your esteemed favor, let me tell you that I believe there is no one so much indebted to Radway & Co.’s preparations as the undersigned. I was totally paralytic—could hardly move my head without causing great pain—pains in the spine, my internal organs paralyzed, my bowels so confined that I only went to stool once in twelve days, and was almost deprived of sight; besides all this, I was very thin ; my arm and hand inflamed, and all the time taking all the preparations which it was thought would do me good, hut to no avail. The lollowing is the manner in which I was treated: Five Pills every night, fric tions with the Relief on the spine, gargles with the Relief and water, and do3es of the Resolvent, as per instructions in the pam phlet. This treatment lasted five months, but at the end of forty days I could walk without crutches, and to day, although not very strong in my legs, I walk perfectly, have good sight, find myself much stronger, and can attend to my business as when I was young. 1 thank God for this great discovery, made by Dr. Rad way & Cos., and also thank Mr. V.

ALMOST EVERY CASE CURED WITH PAIN KILLER, 0 O KAD THE FOLLOWING LETTER FROM lY Rev. li. Telford. Missionary in China, now visitin'! his home in Pennsylvania: Washington, Pa., June2s, iB6O. Messrs. Perry Davis & Son , Providence, 11. I. ■ Dear Sirs—During a residence of some ten years as a Missionary in Siam and China, I found your vegetable Pain Killer a most valuable remedy for that fearful scourge, the Cholera. In administering the medicine, I found it most effectual to give a teaspoonful of Pain Killer in a gill of hot water sweetened with sugar; then, after about fifteen minutes, begin to give a table spoonful ol the same mixture every minute uutil relief was obtained. Apply hot applications to the extremities. Bathe the stomach with Pain Killer, clear and rub the liml)3 briskly. Os those who had the cholera, and took the medicine faith fully iu the way stated above, eight out of ten recovered. Yours, truly, RTELFORD. If an attack with Diarrhoea, Dyseu.ery, or Cramp Colic, don't delay the use of tliY Pain Killer, •‘--old by all mediciue dealers. Price. 25 cents, 00 cents, and $1 per bottle. Manhattan, Kansas, April 17,186(>. Gentlemen — * * * 1 want to say a little more about the Pain Killer. I consider it a very valuable medicine , and always keep it on liana. I have travelled a good deal since I have been in Kansas, and never without taking it with me. In my practice I used it freely for the Asiatic Cholera, in 1819, and with belter success than any other medicine ; I also used it here for cholera iu 1555, with tlie same good result. Truly, yours, A. HUNTING, M. D. Swato, China. Cholera ! * * * I regret to say that Hie cholera has prevailed here of late to a fearful extent. For tho last three weeks, from tea to fifty or sixty fatal cases each day has been re ported. 1 should add that the Pain Killer, sent, recently from the Mission House, has been used with considerable success during this epidemic. If taken in season is generally effectual in check ing the disease. Rev. CHARLES HARDINIG, Sholapore, India. [From the Portland Monthly.l Summer Complaint and Dysentery. Bowel complaints seem just now to be the prevailing element, and auy medicine that is everywhere acceptable, and that is reliable, is a very"desirable acquisition. From what we have seen, heard, and experienced, we believe Davis' Pain Killer is this desideratum. For the best method of using it, we quote from the directions: “For common bowel complaints, give one tea spoonful in a gill of new milk and molasses, iu equal parts, stirred well together; lessen the dose for children, according to the age. If the pain be severe, bathe the bocvels and back with the medi cine. This mode of treatment is good in cases of the cholera morbus, sudden stoppages, etc. Re peat. the dose every hour. “The quickest vvay I ever saw the dysentery cured was by taking one spoonful of the Pain Killer in one gill of milk and molasses stirred well_ together and drank hot, at the same time bathing the bowels freely with medicine. Let the dose be repeated every hour until tlie patient is relieved.” II every person who has reason to fear this disease would provide themselves with a bottle of this medicine, and use as occasion required, we believe a great amount of suffering and sickness would be saved. jel2—2m City Ordinance.
