The first number of this new candi date for public favor was issued from this office on Saturday, October 31st, 1808. The Weekly contains all the latest New* by mail and telegraph ; fltll Mar ket Reports ; the Editorials and Cor respondence of the Daiy Rkpu blican ; Miscellany, Poetry, etc., etc. It is furnished to subscribers at the very low price of Two Dollars a year, or to chibs of ten, or more, One Dollar and fifty cents each—always in ad vance. Our friends are earnestly requested to aid in securing for our Weekly a large circulation. We pledge our best exertions to make it worthy of the patronage of all good Republicans everywhere. All letters should be addressed to E. 11. Pug he, Augusta, Ga. - Show To-llnj. We suppose that all the little folks, and some of the big folks, will be out today to see John Robinson’s big show parade the streets. I’lHueliette Says it costs more to pay for oyster suppers, with the hope of finding out who sent you an anonymous note, than it does to not worry yourself about it. •♦♦♦ City itegistration.

Jake Christian, an old resident of the City Guard House and the County Jail (from which latter plaee he has been but recently released), has been at his old tricks again. On Monday night he stole from a tailor’s shop, on Jackson street, a pair of pants, just finished for a customer, and has not yet been found, although his friends are looking very anxiously for him. Jake is like the boy who didn’t mean any harm, only be couldn’t let things alone. The Colored Schools, Under the auspices of the American .Missionary Association, in this city, have been reopened for the Winter terms. Parents who fail to avail themselves of this opportunity to edu cate their children Will be very neglectful of their duty. Education comes nearer than any other thing to making people equal. •• n. i». s,- When shall we three meet again ?” the article which attracted so much notice in our issue of the Sth instant, will be published in our Weekly of the 14th November. An extra edition will be printed in order to sup ply the demand which our daily edition entirely failed to meet, although we sold about 200 extra copies. Look out for our Weekly Republican, which will be ready on Saturday next. - ■ •' • Hearth and Home. This is the title of a weekly literary and family paper, to be issued on or about the first of January next. As its name indicates, it will be devoted to fireside and home reading exclusively, and also handsomely illustrated. We have the assurance of its publishers that it will neither be partisan or sectarian, and will contain in its columns nothing offensive to the most fastidious reader. Mr. Donald G. Mitchell has the editorial charge, to be assisted by a large corps of asso. dates and correspondents, among whom are Mrs. Harriet Bee< her Stowe. AddressPettengii.l, Bates & Co., 37 Park Row, N. Y. Give un Your Z3T on That. Our brother of the Sandersville Georgian expresses himself like a true man in the following, which is the closing paragraph of an article on the late election: As to General Gram, the successful candi date for the Presidency, we have not the slightest doubt he will do the very best he can for the whole country over the destinies of which he is called to preside. Trusting that this may Tie his course, we shall sus pend judgment, hoping for the fieri, until the worst is forced upon ns. To M. it. and P. Dear Sirs: I’vcroul tlie naughty trick, Which on you late Wits playetf And I despise tire fellqav who I’fdtcud; to bda maid; For thus he really injures those Who arc such, I’m afraid. Supposing now, in truth, 1 wrote To either one of you— How much attention would you pay To my sweet billet do>u- ? You would not be so keen to bile, Another time —would you ? While I despise the dirty trick. 'Tis wonderful to ine How well he picked the very men Who would so ready be! Oh, 1 declare it is a shame, And injury to me. The chance I’ve lost—the darling beaux 1 might had, you know, If. 1 had only known ipJiipo, You wanted to do so;’ But that confounded fellow went And made you such a show A Genuine Amelia. Johu Robinson's Cireus mid He ■iiigcric. This largest of all combinations ar’ rived during the night last night, and will give two grand entertainments to day- oiie at two ami the other at seven o'clock, this afternoon and evening. The reputation of the old veteran, John Robinson, is too well known in this locality to need special commen dation from us; but wc understand his establishment has so much that is new and good, in addition to the at tractions of last season, that we would be remiss in our duty, did wc not re mind the public of it. Alons. FraN- Jconi. from the I‘aris (Jjibpie, with his dancing horses; George M. Kelley, who leaps over seventeen horses; La Relle Cordelia, the greatest living female bareback equestrienne; the colored boy, Lewis, whose hurdle act has elicited the applause of the world; ami Pete Conklin, the popular and eccentric local jester—added to the old superior attractions —forms a grand entertainment, whose excellence could not well be doubted. The Menagerie is considerably en- ■ larged, and is now confessed complete and attractive. The procession will pass through. Broad and Greene streets at precisely ten o’clock. Grant and Peace. We believe there is a wry large number of conservative utcii in Geor gia, who, if they would give expres sion to their true sentiments, are now willing to bury past animosities and unite in a manly effort ,to restore peace and tranquility to our State. Every true patriot who fought on either side during the war desires the return of a lasting peace. The elec tion of Grant tends first of all to give strength to the peace party of the country. Let all good men join hands and trample into dust the disorganize i s who would destroy our laws and dis pel all hojres of a bright day of happi ness and peace. The Fraud Proven. A special telegram to the Cincin nati Gazette, says that investigations into the fraudulent naturalization case, in Jersey City, show that Col. Treadwei.i. had been dealing exten sively in forged papers, and selling them at two dollars each to any one who wished to buy. The ■testimony against him was very dear ami direct, and will probably take him to the penitentiary. Three witnesses testi fied that Tkeadwei.i. bad told them he was in the business, and was ex hibiting papers ready for .sale, as well as money obtained for some he sold. One of the witnesses was C- C. Bunn, who said TbEaowf.ll called on him at his office, and exhibited fraudulent :>apers ready for sale. lie told how ninch money he had received from candidates for fraudulent papers, and described his mode of dealing. Bums advised him how to act so as to have the least evidence against him, and especially cautioned him to. receive his money directly from candidates, and not through third parties. Two other arrests have been made in Jersey City, ami probably the pris oners will be examined as soon as Treadwell’s case is finished. Luxuries. Our contemporaries of Macon are enthusiastic in their praises of “ the first shad” of the season, which was served up on the 10th instant to a select party, by t apt. Henry J>. Ells; and those of Atlanta are re joicing in tho anticipation bf So/fie daq riding on the street ears. Sad Disappointment. The Sandersville Georgian states that, as soon as (he result ol the Pres idential election in that (Wasliington) county was known, an extra an nouncing the particulars was issue<l from that office and mailed to all its daily exchanges ; and, strange to say, not one of these extras ever reached their destination! We are sdVfy that such a rare display of journalistic en ter]nrise iwas all for nought. Never mind ; try again, brother. —The yield of gold and silver from 1492 to I*6B was fourteen billions of dollars, of which there are two hun dred millions more, of gold than of sil ver. . ~ , Important, to Idlers. The Sumter Reppblietip states that a (rcedtnan, in that county, w he, )>y his industry and economy, had siived three hundred dollars, rented, in March last, seventy-five acres of land, which he planted in cotton, and succeeded in cultivating it with two old horses purchased at seventy-five dollars each. Ai’ii reward for his l.ibor, he will gather twenty-live bales of cotton, worth twenty-five hundred dollars. To BuNincNN Men. The Weekly National Republi can has an extensive circulation over the adjacent counties—thus afford ing an excellent opportunity to Adver tisers to extend their business notices. Woman in Black.—A Paris paper says: “Every year, on the same day, at the same hour, a beautiful woman, of about thirty-five, comes to the Palais Royal on foot, and enters the famous ‘Freres Proveneaux.’ She is always alone, always dressed in black, and deeply veiled. She wears no orna ments that might attract attention ; no jewels, save two beautiful black pearls in her cars. W ithout saying a word to any one, she walks quickly up the stairs and enters the private room No. 4. The proprietor of the establishment, who knows her ways, orders her dinner, consisting always of the same dishes. These are all placed upon the table at the same time, and the mysterious lady is left to herself for about two hours. No bill is made out; the unknown visitor leaves one of her pearl ear rings in payment. For twelve years, we are told, she has come this way, always melancholy-looking, always dressed in black. Who <jan she be? The waiters surnamed her ‘La Princess aux Pe ries.’” • • A Queer Sermon.—A Mexican Priest had the bad luck, last summer, to fall into the hands of a gang of highwaymen. As he had no money about him, these knights of St. Nicho las clamored for a sermon. He preached without notes, but the lan guage was, in substance, as follows : Gentlemen, J can not honor you better tlnui by comparing your life with that of our Saviour, while qn earth. He suffered much; so do you, being always fugitives. Christ went with his disciples; and so arc you always ill gangs. He visited the Phari sees and Scribes; you also go to see the peo ple who are not better than they. He often suffered from rain and wind, cold, heat and insults; so do you suffer from the same in conveniences. ' Christ went barefoot and with but one dress: and it seems tome that you do not possess more than you cany on your bodies He carried no silver and gold about him ; I (to not Tlimk that your pockets are always tilled. He fasted forty days in the desert ; and 1 believe that you do often the same. lie was tempted by the devil; you are always in that condition, lie was carried to the pinnacle id the temple and the top of the highest mountain ; the devil takes you to the most isolated places where you waylay the traveller. Christ suffered from hunger and thirst; the same infirmities attack you. He was scorned by all; so arc you despised by mankind. The Jews wanted to hang him; so are the authorities after you for the same purpose. He was sold by Judas; and no doubt somebody will play that part among you. <. O M M E R G I A E AUGUSTA MARKET.
