We give below tt card from the op posing candidates for the Mayoralty of this city, and would most respectfully unite with them in the hope that each and all of our citizens will so demean themselves as to preclude the possi bility of a collision at the polls or else where in the city, in consequence of an honest difference of opinion. Espe cially do we commend their recom mendation, “that all legal voters go quietly to the, polls, deposit their bal lots, and return to their daily avoca tions.” There exists no reason why, more than at any previous election, anv disturbance should be anticipated on Wednesday next; but none can occur, if the wise ami prudent coun sels of the leading candidates of the opposing parties are heeded by the friends of each. Let every citizen remember that the reputation of the city is at stake, and let all remain sober, calm, prudent, and, if need be, forbearing: TO Tlili VOTERS OF AUGUSTA. Augusta, November 30, 1868. We. the undersigned, candidates for Mayor at the ensuing election, desiring that peace .'lid quiet may prevail on Wednesday next, do most earnestly advise and exhort our respective friends to abstain from all violence, on that day. We would further recommend that all legal voters go quietly to the Polls, deposit their ballots, and return to their daily avocations. We are of opinion if the above course is ado]»ted, by all our friends, that no disturbance will occur. Very Respectfully, FOSTER BLODGETT. H. F. RUSSELL. Columbia anti Ingusia Railroad. We understand that trains ran , through from Columbia to Granite ville on yesterday, thus completing this long-desired road. c haiige of Schedule. The public are referred to the ad vertisement, in another column, of a change of schedule on the Street Rail road. Photographing. A friend of ours relates that whilst in Ryan's Photographic Gallery, Savannah, lately, an honest country man presented himself, when the fol lowing conversation took place. “I wish you to take my father’s picture, said he." “Was your father ever photographed hero?” asked Dan. “Not that I know of." “Well, bring him as soon as you like.” “But I can’t,” rejoined the countrymen, wip ing away a tear; “he died a fortnight :igo.” “Why didn’t you say so at once?” exclaimed the photograhcr. “You have a picture of him, of course?” “If 1 had, what should I want of another?” answered the countryman. ‘‘Here is a description of him,” draw, iug a paper from his pocket, “and try to make it as like him as you can,” Dan. caved. Youthful Marriages. A royal commission on marriages lias ascertained some curious facts re garding youthful marriages, especially in Lancashire, England, which are interesting. In Scotland, marriages of this kind are unusually rare, although in that happy kingdom minors are not required to obtain the consent of their guardians before slipping- on the matrimonial noose- The census returns of 1861 show that in Bolton 45 husbands and 175 wives "ere married at the age of 15 and imdcr. Bromley had fifty husbands and 147 wives of the same precocious age. Stockport, as a local journal wrote, “ asserted its proud pre>emi uence,” by contributing to the census returns 59 husbands and 179 wives who were united before their fifteenth birthday had passed. Beautiful Fancy Goods. In great variety, at 190 Broad street —A farm of lot acres, near Lees burg, Va., was sold lately for s(>4 per acre. From the Biggsville (Ill.,) Plaindealer, I'Jtli.J From the Altar to the Tomb Wednesday morning, Nov. 11, Mr. Peter Shea, of Greenville, left his home with Miss Helen Griffiths Boyer, about seventeen vears of age, daughter of Mr. T. C. Boyer, of Greenville, and proceeded to Galesburg, where they were married the same evening. After they were married they went to the American house, an<> took lodg ings for the night, intending to return home Thursday evening. Thursday evening they went -to the railroad depot, nut arrived too late to take the train, and retraced their steps to the hotel, where they were assigned to the same room they had previously occu pied, No. 29. (snretiring for the night, Mr. Shea turned the gas down low, leaving a mnall flame burning. About ten o’clock, at the suggestion of his wife, lie got up and turned it off; but in so doing Mr. Shea thinks he must have accidentally turned it on again. In the morning they were missed at the breakfast table, and the chamber maid looked through the keyhole and saw Mr. Shea’s foot hanging over the side of the bed, and noticed Unit both parties were breathing heavily. She re ported her observations to the landlady, who, we are informed, took no notice of the matter. Singular as it may seem, no attempt was made to investigate the subject until one o’clock, when, they not ap pearing at the dinner table, the door was forced open ami the room discov ered to be full of gas, and Mr. Shoa and his wife in a state of insensibility. Mr. Shea recovered his consciousness about six o’clock, but his wife did not recover sufficiently to recognize any one, and expired at 10 o’clock a. m., Sunday. Mr. Shea’s left side is com pletely paralyzed, but he has the power of speech. His recovery is pro nounced by his physician to be impos sible. Mr. and Mrs. Boyer, upon learning of this terrible calamity, proceeded at once to Galesburg, and did all that was in their power to help the suf ferers. Mr. Shea was buried on Monday at four o’clock p. m., the funeral taking place at the Methodist Episcopal Church at Hazel Dell. “Abe Yoi Insured?” —The de cision of Judge Clifford in the United States Circuit Court, should prompt those to hold policies of insurance which have been transferred or as signed to look sharply to the validity and regularity of the proceeding. The party insured Lad assigned the policy to a third party without the consent of the company insuring. De cision, of course, .was that the third party could not recover, the assignor being the one insured. And as the goods were not his (the insured party's) when burned, neither could he recover. Providence {II. I.) Journal. Too Late —A young couple eloped from a neighboring town, lately, and when at a safe distance from home were married. Soon after an officer was sent in pursuit, and arriving at the hotel where they were stopping, he immediately entered their room and found them snug in bed. lie ex plained his errand, when the young lady said, with a ringing laugh: “Tt4l ma it is too late—we’ve been married some time, and have been in bed half an hour. Te .' he ! he-c-e ! Don’t get out of bed for him, John !” For the truth of the above, we refer to Cy. Binks.— Piqua Journal. • -•> * Printing by Sunlight. —Some days since we copied a paragraph in which experiments abroad, in photo graphing printed matter were spoken of as something novel. We have seen to day a volume of over a thousand pages, perfectly copied by a promi nent photographer in the city, in the clearest and distinctest manner. This undoubtedly is the most extensive as the most successful attempt of the kind, and gives a perfect sac simile of the original book.— Boston Tran script. Terrible Explosion in an Eng lish Coal Mine. —A terrible explo sion occurred on the 26th ult., in the Arley mine Colliery, at Wigan, Lan cashire. Three hundred men were in the pit at the time, most if not till of whom have perished. Thirty-two bodies have thus far been recovered. Hundreds of relatives of the dead arc gathered at the mouth of the pit, and the scene is heart-rending. —The Duke of Cambridge, Queen Victoria’s cousin, receives as General Officer £l6 a day; as Commander-in- Chief, £7 a day; as Colonel of the First Regiment of the Line, nearly £I,OOO a year; as Colonel of the First Regiment of Engineers, £BOO a year ; as Colonel of the First Regiment of Artillery, £600; and possesses besides till these a clear £12,000 a year. —A Jewish theatre has been erected near Warsaw.

Washington, December I. - Judge Chase decided ttveial confiscation oasis, sustaining Underwood's previous decisions. The decisions involve the declaration that the confiscation laws are constitutional, and that where there was no appearance and plea by defendants, the admiralty side of the District Court had full jurisdiction to decree confiscation and sale. Chase, however, desired the question should come before a full bench of the Supreme Court, and appeal on writ of error, which was granted. Richard H.

The amount of gold in the Treasury is about ninety millions. The New Y’ork State Attorney General lias taken possession of the Erie Road, and placed it under the management of Jay Gould, which virtually leaves everything as before. Sub-Treasury balance, eighty-seven and a half millions. Atlanta Municipal Election. Atlanta, December I.—The Mayor and City Council have ordered a postponement of the municipal election until the assem bling of the Legislature in January next, taking the ground that the negroes arc not entitled to vote by the legislative law granting the city’ charter, and that the election is null and void, unless the pres ent Legislature strike out the word “white - ’ in the city charter. The Demo crats claim that the State Constitution and Reconstruction laws give negroes the right to vote, municipal laws to the contrary notwithstanding, and propose holding the regular election, allowing the blacks to vote, and leaving the Legislature to de cide as to its legality. ——— South Carolina Legislature.
