What Republican cannot answer this question in the affirmative ? If you cannot, register at once. Don’t procrastinate. Pro crastination is the thief of time. You may be sick to-morrow, or next w ' . Without a certificate of registration, you can neither vote for Mayor or member of Council. You arc all vitally interested in the municipal election. A lot of hungry Democratic ex offioials are now greedily waiting lo get hold of the city, so that they can crush every Republican in the city, or who has ever expressed any sympathy for our party. They may wheedle and talk smooth as oil, but that is their ultimate object. You have the power to defeat and destroy their mischievous schemes; but to do that, you must register. Remember, that if you have resided in the State one year and in the city for six months, you are a voter. You know whether or not Augusta is your home. You may have been temporarily away. There are few persons who have not been temporarily absent from the city during the past year, under some pretext or another. We do not desire any Republican to attempt to register, who does not fed himself fully entitled to register under the law. But if you feel yourself entitled to vote, the first step necessary is, to register. Notary Public. The public will be pleased to learn that Mr. Eli.is Lyon, of this city, has been ap pointed Notary Public and ex-officio Justice of the Peace. Troops Ila vc Arrived. One company of Infantry reached this city on yesterday, ami were qu irtered in the old City Hotel. <. _ Merely an Idea. Blobhs wants to know if it would not be better for B. 11. Hill to make baste homo and write another series of letters for the Ku-Klux organ, part of which he is report ed to own ? He might find a crumb or two of comfort to cheer the drooping counten ances of the Ku-Kluxers. Delayed. The steamship San Salvador, with the body of tho late Howell Cobh, having failed to arrive at Savannah on Tuesday, arrange ments were effected by which a 'special train will take the remains through to Athens, without change, immediately after the steamer’s arrival. Mack Wire Performance. Prof. Yeaman, the man who was to walk, dance, etc., on a wire, a few days since, and failed to do so in consequence of the “small amount" collected, gave a public exhibition on Greene street, yesterday afternoon, which was largely attended but slightly patronized. The Professor is blind, and from what we learn a very deserving object for public pat ronage and charity. Ise of Public Buildings* A Democratic cotemporay complains be cause a room in the City Hall was occupied for a short time, a few evenings since, by a few citizens for tho transaction of some private business. Go to, thou Grumbler* and cease your everlasting fault-finding. No injury was done to the room, or Hall, on the occasion referred to, and you have no right to kick up a muss about it. Whenever you wish to occupy the Hall, go and do so ; we won’t object, nor pout about it. ■■-♦♦♦ Houghton Institute. The exercises of the above school have been resumed, and that, too, under the most flourishing circumstances. Already the whole number of boys and girls enrolled amount to fully two hundred and fifty, with an average daily attendance of two hundred and thirty-five pupils. A full supply of the most approved text books are in hand. Though the number of pupils is very large, there is still room for more. Every pupil will receive especial attention. Parents, send your children to school. The teachers of the Houghton Institute intend to prove themselves to be pains taking nnd in love with their great work- Grand Sacred Concert. We are gratified to learn that our Catho lic friends in this city intend giving a Con cert on Tuesday evening next, on which oc casion the grand new organ, now in course of erection in their church, will be opened to the publie for the first time. Prof. John Weigand and other celebrated artists will perform, assisted by the Choir and the Augusta Quartette Club, who have kindly consented to aid on the occasion. The following is tho programme, which we clip from a city paper : PART FIRST. Grand Opening Voluntary on Organ... Prof. Weigand. Gloria in Excelsis Deo, from Mozart’s 12th Mass Choir. 0 Salutaris, Boss iniSoprano Club. Prayer, OttoQuartette Club. Ave Maria, FlotioTenor Solo. Organ Offertorie. PART SECOND. Grand Chorus, from Hoyden’s Creation Choir. Pro Pecatis, Rossini’s Stabat Mater.... Bass Sole. 0 Salutaris, Prof. WeigandDuett. Trio, KreutzerChoir. Cujus Animam, Rossini..... Tenor Solo. Ave Verum, MozartQuartette Club. Priest’s Grand March—Mendelsoha. M e trust that the Concert will be largely attended, and the funds of the Church greatly increased. Beautiful Fancy Goods, In great variety, at 1 fit) Broad street. The Effect. Among the many incidents connected with the election in the North, Tuesday, is *1 - r • A I Inmnnmi I »r» Loron longing to Mr. Wilson, of tho Palace Stables, heard of the result late Tuesday night, which gave him the colic and he died before day, and was hauled off to the trash pile by the corporation (scalawag) carts yesterday morning. Another horse on Broad street was simi larly attacked, and the last we saw of him the “ doctor" was rubbing him down with tt blue Yankee overcoat. We did not learn whether this cured him, but presume i* did. < < > - -r Nature'* Noblemen* The true spirit of enlightened American Democratic Republicanism is expressed in the following eloquent words by Mr. 11. Cobb, which appeared in Wells' “ Life Illustrated f some time ago : Who arc Nature’s noblemen ? In tho field and in the mine, And in dark and grimy workshop?, Like (iolconda’s gems they shine. Lo ! they smite tho ringing anvil. And they dress the yielding soil; They are on the pathless ocean, Where the raging surges boil ! They are noble - tZiry who labor— Whether with the hand or pen, If their hearts boat true and kindly For their suffering fellow men. And the day is surety coining, Loveliest since the world began, When good deeds shall be the patent Os nobility to man. - Macon anil Augusta Railroad. We intended to correct a mistake earlier, which occurred in this column the other day, says the Macon Journal d Messenger, say ing the State had agreed to loan this road $30,000. An 0 was omitted. It should have read $300,000. This is an ample amount to build the thirty uncompleted miles be tween Macon and Milledgeville. And we hope the Board of Directors will throw new life and energy into the construction of the remaining link. Il should, by all means, be ready in lime for the Fall trade of 1869. This will open an air line between the great inland city of Georgia and Charleston, the commercial metropolis of South Carolina, and thence to New York. Freights and railroad charges generally are reduced to reasonable figures by one method only, and that is the building of competing lines. We have no enmity against any of the great railroads leading to our city, but are a firm believer iu cheap freights and a heap of business. —— ■■ Mortuary. There were twenty-five deaths in Savan nah during the week ending on the 12th instant, viz: fourteen whites and eleven colored. The News from Maine Was quite a setter, notwitlastajiding the large Democratic gains figured up for their comfort by the Reporter of the Associated Press. Hear what Seymoub and Blair have to say about it: O! O! OI O! Said Horatio; Do swear, Mr. Blair, It will case oil the edge of our pain. Os course you have heard, And cursed every word Os that terrible story from Maine, Mr. Blair— That terrible story from Maine. I sha’n't swear, Said Frank Blair. I tell you I can’t do The subject justice, that’s plain. It isn’t any use, For they’ve just cooked our goose ; And that’s what’s the matter in Maine, Mr. Seymour— That’s' what’s the matter in Maine. We would like to know how Horatio and Frank? feels now, since Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, and Nebraska have spoken. Mr. Poet, tunc your tyre to sing another song. - Prussiu Hearing Liberal I'eMinioiiy. The Medical College of Breslau, Prussia, by command of the Government, instituted enquiries in regard to the purity of Dr. Rad way’s Pills. The following is a copy of the report, after a thorough analysis, signed by Professors of the College : Report of an Analysis of Iladaay's Reyu laiiny Pills, Instituted tor the satisfaction of the Prussian Government and people. It ap pears that the great popularity of the Pills throughout Germany, as an aperient, anti billious and alterative medicine, bad pro voked the malice of the apothecaries, who caused a report to be circulated that the ingredients were poisonous. Therefore a scientific inquisition into their nature and properties was ordered, the issues of which was a most triumphant vindication of the Sanitary value of the Pills. The Faculty of the College state in their report that after a careful and minute ex amination, they have the honor to state that “ the Pills are not only Iree from every sub stance injurious to health, but arc composed wholly of substances and elements promotive of digestion, and certain at the same time to act favorably upon the nervous system,” etc., etc. They state, further, that the inju rious rumors set afloat by the Prussian apothecaries originated “in a mean spirit of trade jealousy, excited by the great celebrity attained by the Pills within a very brief period.” Signed in behalf of the College. Dr. Pint,. Theobald Warner, Director of the Polytechnic Bureau. Dr. Heise, First Assistant. Dr. Radway’s Pills ate sold by Druggists ann Country Merchants everywhere. See Dr. Radway’s Almanac for 1808. oc3—2w • Laical Style Hall and Konacto. Mrs. PtiGHE, 190 Broad street, has just received an assortment of Hats and Bonnets, including the “ Grecian Bend.” The Democratic Party is just now living on paradoxes. They “ gained” in Vermont, and yet lost it. They “gained” in Maine, and yet the Republicans carried it by 20,000. They “ gained” in Connecti cut, and yet their last Spring’s majority of 1,700 is turned into a Republican majority of 2,500. • -♦ • Information Wanted—Any information in regard to Francis M. Hood, a Confederate soldier who was captured near Atlanta, Ga., and carried to Camp Chase, will be thank fully received by his father, at LaFayette, Ala., post office. The missing man is about five feet nine inches high, fair complexion, blue eyes, light hair, and about twenty-five years of age. Exchanges will confer a favor upon an old man by copying jhc above notice.— ■ ♦♦> —A rat’s nest with SSOO in bills therein has been found in an old freight car on a Kentucky railroad. }W_IEUGBAEH.g “Now, boys, I’ve got a song for you I think you’d like to hear, It’s all about a little ’lection That took place the other day.” The Elections.

RUFUS B. BULLOCK, By tho Governor; GovernvV. David G. Corruto, Secretary of State. HkAiiQUAUTEiis Department or tub South, I Atlanta, Georgia, Oct. 8, 1868. J General Urdcre, No. 27. “Whereas, by an act of Congress of the United Status, approved March 2, 1865, it is made the duty of the military authority to preserve the peaco at the polls at any election which may be hen! in any of the States; and, whereas, this duty become the more imperative, from tho existing political excitement in lire public mind, from the recent organization of civil gpTcrn m«-it, and from Qio lact that Congress has, by statute, prohibited the organization of military forces in the several States of this Department, it is therefore ordered, “That the several District commanders wi as soon as practicable, on tho receipt of thi. order, distribute tbc troops under their commands as follows : » • ♦ » « In the District of Georgia : Ono company 16th Infantry, to Albany. Ono company 16th Infantry, to Columbus. Ono company 16th Infantry, to MaeuU. Ono company 16th Infantry, to Augusta. Ono company 16th Infantry, to Miashington, "Wilkes county. One company 16th Infantry, to Americas. Ono company (C), sth Cavalry, to Athens. Tho company at Savannah to bo reinforced, should occasion require, by such men at Fort Pulaski as can bo spared from the post. . « • • » * " Detachments, when necess*; - m»y be made to points in the vicinity of each post; but in no case, nor on any pretext whatever, will detach ments bo sentwitbout commissioned officer, who will be fully insiiueted by his post com mander “The troops will be considered as iu tho field and supplied with tho necessary eamp equipage tno men to be furnished with common tents i practicable, and if n-rt practicable, with shelter tents. Commanding officers arc permitted to hire quarters, temporarily, when it can be done for reasonable rates ; but this will not preclude tbc necessity of carrying tents, as the commands, iu nil cases, must be in readiness to move at the shortest notice, with all supplies required for their efficiency. “District Commanders will instruct Post Cotn ! man dors in their duties, and the relative position of the civil and military powers. They will I impress on Post Commanders that they are to act in aid and co-operation, and in subordination to the civil authorities; that they are to exorcise discretion and judgment, unbiased by political or other prejudices; that their object should be exclusively to preserve the peace and uphold law and order, and they must be satisfied such is the object of the civil officer calling on them for aid ; that they must in all cases, where time will permit, apply for instruction to superior au thority, but they must at all hazards preserve ’ the peace, and not bo restrained by technical points, when, in their conscientious judgment, under the rules above set forth, it is their duty to act. Post Commanders on being notified or tho proposed holding of political meetings, may send an officer, and it necessary a detach ment, to watch the proceedings and see that the peace is preserved. “To the people of the Several States compos ing the Department, the Major General Com manding appeals that they will co-operate with him and the civil authorities in sustaining law and.order, in preserving the peace, and in avoid ing those scenes of riot and bloodshed, and the wanton destruction of property and life which ha:' already, in some instances, been enacted in this Department, lie urges abstinence from all inflammatory and incendiary appeals to the passions; discountenancing the keeping open ot liquor shops on days of political meetings and of election; tho abstaining from carrying arms, and asserting the individual right of construing laws by force of arms. No just, can- cis ever ad vance:! by resort violence. Let there be charity and forbearance among political oppo nents, whatever may be the result. Let each g od,citizen determine that all who, under the aw, have the right to the ballot shall exercise it undisturbed. It there are disputed points of law, lot them be referred to the Courts, and let nut mobs or political clubs, or other irresponsi ble bodies, construe and undertake to execute the law. This appeal is made in the a earnest hope that the Major General Command ing can rely on tbe good sense and correct judgment of the mass of tho people, and that ho will not be compelled to resort to tho exercise of the power with whicU be is euuustcd, and which he will most reluctantly employ. But he thinks it his duty to make known, that so far as tho power under his command will admit, he will nut permit the peace to be broken, and that he will not be restrained in the conscientious dis charge of his duty by technicalities of laws made when the present anomalous condition of affairs wore neither anticipated or provided for.” By order of Major Genera!
