Arrested. Lieutenant Charles Evans, of the City Police, was arrested last night by Deputy Sheriff Crump, and taken to Jail. We did not learn by whose authority the arrest I was made—only that it was in connceiion with the tragedy of Monday night. We, learn, also, that Chief W. C. Dilkon was arrested, but, in consequence of his wounds, was allowed to remain at his I residence. —. w II Slander. Let no one suppose that by acting a good part through life, he will always escape slander. There will be those even who hate theth tor the very qualities that ought to procure esteem. There are some folks in the world who are not willing that others be better than themselves. • Try It. To get rid of mosquitoes; take of gum camphor a piece almost one-third the size of an egg, evaporate it by placing it in a tin vessel, and holding it over a lamp or candle, taking care it does not ignite. The smoke will soon fill the room' and expel the mos quitoes. CompHtiugr Interest. Here is a new method of computing interest on any number of dollars at six per cent., which appears simple : Multiply any given number of day* of interest desired, separate the right hand figure, and divide by six ; the result is the true in terest of such sum for such number of days at six per cent. This rule is so simple and to true, according to all business usages, that every banker, broker, merchant, or clerk, should post it tip for reference. There being no such thing as a fraction Tn it, there is scarcely any liability to error or mistake. By no other arithmetical pro cess can the desired information be ob tained by so few figures. liirtignation meeting. Pursuant to a call in two of the city jour nals, an ‘indignation meeting’ is proposed to be held at the City Hall, twelve o’clock to day. Cui bono, gentlemen ? As faithful journalists of current events (and for future reference) we append the names of the signers to this call, viz i The undersigned, citizens of Augusta, convinced that the administration of city affairs must lead to bankruptcy and ruin, and indignant at the recent" outrage perpe trated. by officers of the city government, upon citizens, by which blood has been spilled and life heedlessly endangered, call a meeting of all conservative, law abiding, peace loving citizens, to be held at the. City Hail, Thursday, July 38th, at 12 m., to take the matter into consideration and devise legal means for their protection and relief.

I sec iu your journal a notice of the ap- I poiutment of a “State Central Committee of Georgia of the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ National Republican Committee.” Will you have the kindness, Mr. Editor, to I inform au old soldier who authorized the appointment of this committee? There are not fifty original Republican soldiers in 1 Georgia, and it seems strange that such a great flourish should bo made about such a little pageant, which, by the way, if mustered, I would present somewhat the appearance of Falstaff’s troop, on account of the tender benevolence displayed towards them by cer- I tain hungry politicians of their party. The object is plain, however, and can not deceive any one but a knave or a fool; and I, for I one Republican'soldier, protest against the usurpation, by any one man, of an uadele-. gated power, to be prostituted, perhaps, to the basest purposes. If some explanation iji not made, I propose to let a little light shine lon the dark trickery of a certain luminary. “An Old SoldibM.” Answm.—Don’t know. The “notice" referred to was sent to The Republican by I a gentleman, who, we presume, will embrace an early opportunity for enlightening “An Old Soldier.’’ e ♦ > _ I A Hint to Employers. The emancipation of our slaves has e I worked many inconveniences to our papple> but none so marked iu its personal discoin | torts as those which flow from the constant 5 I changes in our domestics No housekeeper i has any assurance that the servants </ i I to-day will be at their place to morrow, j Everything is uncertainty—when a servant • I is employed no one, such is the demoraliza I tion, regards it as permanent. As house* I keepers, we live in constant dread of waking lup each morning minus “ help. ’ And this I state al’things is peculiar to the South. No 1 other people on earth arc thus annoyed with I the uncertainty ot servants- Nor does llto fault rest with the servants themselves. Thi fault rests solely with our people ; they Jove to have it-so. Day after day we.hear of one" family tempting the servants Os another to leave. Such conduct is decidedly small jual I contemptible. It is indicative of bad breed - I ing, and is conclusive of the fact that the I offender 'knows but little of good manners. As long as this abomfntrtidn is indulged in we shall have trouble with our domestics. The poor, weak creatures are naturally toed of change, and as loug as this temptation rs I constantly thrust at them they will bo everlastingly changing. Our people can remedy all this inconvenience by a little I common sense, mixed and shaken up with considerable good manners. * • Strange, if True. The following touching incident, it is said' recently occurred in one of the street cars:,- The car was crowded. Many were stand ing; among them an old man of perhaps seventy, whose appearance indicated great weariness. There wero strong men sitting on either side ; there were young men and boys; but no one offered the old mtio a seat. Presently a young and beautiful woman arose, and, with a wiOniug smile, offered him her seat. He seemed bewildered ami refused; but she insisted with so much earnestness that he finally settled himself into her seat, while she took the place where he had stood. This proceeding produced such a sensation that the conductor pulled the boll and kindly inquired if anybody wanted to get out. A fat old gentleman, whose eyesight was rather dim, deliberate ly took out his spectacles, and having wiped them carefully, put them on his nose, and said, “Wonderful! wonderful! wonderful!” No loss than four gentlemen sprang from their seals nf the same moment, and offered them to' the lady, but she politely declined. After the lady . had -left The car, one gentleman remarked that he had never seen the like in all his life, and that in all probability she was insane. Another said she was no doubt a stranger in the city. The conductor was interrogated as to whether sins was a frequent passenger in the cars. He . replied that she was not—that nothing of tlie ■ kind had ever before occurred in the coarse of his experience as a conductor. A youthful dandy, who had a seat next to the lady, said, with a twirl of his moustache, that it was “an awkward position for a muh to be placed in,” and has spent his rime since in riding up and down in the same car, and has offered his seat to no less than fifty four elderiy gentlemen, most of. whom accepted the offer, but wot a single young Indy made room beside her for his gallantry. Flnuncial. Postmasters or others who have move “nickel” cents than they know what to do with may send- thtin in quantities bf hot fess thjtn ten pounds to IJenry R. Linderman, Director U. 8. Mint, Philadelphia, and receive in return their nominal value in three and five cent pieces. ’ The reasonable expenses of the transportation of the three cent pieces in sums of S3O, and the five cent pieces in sums of SSO and'npwards, to any point accessible by railroad or steamboat will’ be paid by the Mint. No “spoiled, illegitimate, or doubtful pieces,’" in short, no bad pennies, will be taken. The pieces will be taken, not by Count, but by weight; and the sole object ot the arrangement is to withdraw from circulation a few millions of cents, which coin is now so abundant as to be in many cases a positive nuisance. Current Subjects. The current subjects for discussion at present, outside of politics, are : "I tw to keep cool. ««tmner complaints. Recipes tot the certain annihilation of the virus of mad dogs. The value of bathing. Lightuing disasters. How much dust and coal cinders a traveller cun swallow and live. The impropriety of packing a street rail way car, as if were sugars or sardines. Why Iruildings to which the public resort are not properly ventilated. How to get off in the woods or to the sea shores. Thermometers. Umbrellas and parasols. Icc. —The ancient Scandinavians used the antlers of stags ter drinking cups. This is evidently the origin of the phrase “taking alula." ( BY- _IE£EGBAEtt.| j special Dispatch to the Augusta Republican.] U. S Senatorship. ’ Atlanta, Ga., July 29, 18418. , JoshuifHill was elected U. S. Senator i' the long term; H. V. M. Miller for 1 the short term. It is considered a Demo' cratic triumph. ’ The Democrats held a spontaneous ■ .ffibilee after the election, and speeches were made by Joshua Hill, Jas. L. Seward, and others. The Republicrns wore sold out by pre tended friends. The Democracy announce Miller and Hill as speakers at a meeting to night. Miller wos a an original Secessionist. Special to the Augusta Republican.] From Atlanta. Atlanta, July 29. Great excitement. Democrats jubilant. Republicans in no way disheartened. The election to lire United States Senate of Hill and Miller is considered not a democratic triumph ; both are known to be of strong Republican proclivities Grand Democratic jubilee to-night- —illu- mination, speeches, etc.; it >» proposed to preach the funeral of Republicanism in front of the United States Hotel. Seward (of Thomas), always a doubtful Republican, httl gone over to the enemy. Grant and Colfax stock still at par. The Senate failing to concur, it is not kitown when the clccliou- of State House officers will come on. The Senators. [first OISI’ATCU.] Atlanta, July 29.—Long term, first ballot-Brown 84, Hill 110, Andrews 1. First ballot,short term—Blodgett 73, Seward 14, Akerman 7, Miller 119. [second dispatch. | Atlanta, July 20.-—Joshua Hill aud H. V. M. Miller were elected United States Senators on a joint ballot in the Senate and House. The following is the result of the election : , For the long term—Hill IGO, Brown 94. For the short term—Miller 117, Blodgett < 73, scattering 20. The announcement of the election-of Hill ) nnd Miller gave general satisfaction and was received with cheers. ] There was much confusion on the an nouncement in the galleries, aud the lobbies ■ were ordered to be cleared. Adjourned till Monday. . < Democratic Jubilee- Atlanta. July 29. —There is a grand demonstration here to night by the Democrats over the election of Hill and Miller to the Senate, The city is splendidly illuminated, and there is an immense gathering in front of the United States Hotel. The concourse was addressed by several speakers. Mailer comes out in a fine speech tor Seymour and Blair. Gen. Gordon delivered a splendid oration, appealing to the people to stand by their country, the Union and Constitution, as handed down by Washington and the heroes of Valley Forge, Yorktown ami Monmouth. He paid a splendid tribute to Seymour, as a pure and most gifted statesman, and to Blair as the peerless soldier, who, at the close' of the war, laid his sword as a sacrifice on the altar of civil law. He lauded the Demo cratic platform adopted at New York, as broadly catholic in principle and Christian in spirit. Hill will probably steer clear of parties, using his influence for the best interests of the country. Washington Items. Washington, July 29.*—Some twenty-five Republican members of Congress had a private meeting last night. A* member of Grant’s staff was present. It was stated that the President was weakening, under appre hension of impeachment in September, and would not remove Rollins. The opinion is expressed that, under yesterday’s order from the War Department, the Southern States would undoubtedly go Democratic, and the removal of the Presi dent so far as those present could go was ’ determined. The prospect looked gloomy to most of the members, but Grant's election was regarded as a patriotic necessity, which must be achieved. McCulloch has issued a circular slathig that parties desiring to exchange seven thirties, due July 15th inst., for five-twenties, must place them in mail or express, addressed to Secretary McCulloch, on or before August Ist. . ’ Seward and Evarts departed for New York on a week’s absence. The Speiker appointed Roland, Butler and Beck a Committee to visit Prince Edwurds Island, to report the propriety of a reciprocity treaty. Secretary McCulloch apprehends mischief from the new tax bill. Stringent regulations are under preparation. Foete and Cox, Commissioners of Pen sions and Patents, were installed. Revenue to day, $65(j,000. ——o — " Election of Chief Justice. Cwr.uuHte, July 29—Franklin J. Mose*, father of the Speaker, of the House, was elected Chief Justice to day, over D. T. Corbin, U. S. District Attorney of Charles ton. Moses has never before affiliated with a party, and Republicans say their party has beeu sold out. One disgusted Republican voted for Wade Hampton, and .two or three ethers for Democrats Much excitement and no good feeling ; the schism is widening. Election for two Associate Justices to morrow. Alabama Legislature. Montgomery, July 29.—1 n the Senate, the time to day and yesterday was consumed in discussing a bill to punish and [irevent Ku-Kluxism. In the House, the extreme men are trying to bring up the common carrier bill. The disability question and the selection of Electors by the State Legislature will likely be acted on in caucus to night. The legislative is almost entirely of a local character. ——j — Political Disturbance. New Yobk, July 29.—The Herald has a special fromeßt. Louis stating that a Demo cratic meeting in Saline county was at tacked by ’ Republicans. The latter were driven, off, leading three killed and seven badly wounded. Several Democrats were badly wounded. About twenty otf each side were huft. Virginia- Richmomi, July 29.—Gen. Stoneman has £One to Washington. AH parties are look ing to his return for solution of the question whether all offices in the State are to be cleared ot incumbent* who cannot take the oath. The date of the coming State elec tion also expected .to be decided. Thunder Storm. Savannah, July 20.—Heaviest thunder storm known for years passed over the city this morning. One child was killed, and several buildings struck. Rains continued throughout the day.
