The portly and dignified persouagi*

on our streets yesterday.

Appointment by the Mayor.
/Agreeable to resolution of Council,
His Honor, Mayor Russell, on
Monday night, filled the office of
Recorder by the appointment, until
the January election, of Samuel H.
Crump, Esq.
Ilan Victorious!
Dan spread his canvass, and in
spite of old Boreas’ hard blow, filled
his bill -of fare on Monday evening.
On Tuesday old Boreas got tired and
and went to rest, while old Sol came
out, and with it Dan, his splendid
chariot and his camels.
The performances yesterday were of
such a degree of marvel and interest,
that all who saw them were more than
satisfied. We commend “persistent
Dan,” wherever he may go, assured
that he will give satisfaction every
where.

4 Munificent Donation.
It is really gratifying, at times like'
the present, to chronicle such acts of
true Christian benevolence as that
conceived and executed by Mrs. E. 11.
Tubman, in the donation of five hun
dred dollars for the benefit of the poor
of the city. We trust that her noble
example will induce a generous rivalry
among others, in the donation of such
amounts as their ability may justify,
to the same humane purpose. In
another column will be found His
1 lonor Mayor Russell’s acknowledge
ment of the receipt of the donation here
alluded to.

Star Spangled Bauuer.
We have received from the publish
ers, the “Star Spangled Banner” for
January. With this number it enters
upon its seventh volume, and is en
larged and improved, giving nearly
double the former amount of matter.
It is a rich, rare sheet of 40 long col
umns and eight large pages, illustrated,
and is really the cheapest paper in the
country. Its publishers present,
gratis, to every subscriber, a splendid
engraving, and the price of all is only
75 cents. Specimens can be seen at
this office, or will be sent free by ad
dressing Star Spangled Banner,
Hinsdale, N. 11.
-Inst as Represented.
The firm of Hunter A Co., Book
sellers, etc., Hinsdale, N. 11., is one
among a thousand. Their business is
immense, tjjeir daily mail numbering
frequently fire hundred letters. Our
readers in want of books, cards, prints,
etc., etc., can not do better than send
lor Hunter A Co.’s catalogue.
The .defrerifrer’a Gazette, for De
cember, in an extended editorial, says:
“We believe there is no other house
in the country which has carried the
specialty, if specialty it can be called,
to such a degree of perfection. It
matters not what you may desire. If
at our Broadway palaces your favor
ite book can not be obtained, forward
an order for it to Hunter <fc Co., and
it will be forthcoming by return mail.
There is no firm more reliable, and no
other establishment where an order
can be filled w ith less trouble to the
customer.”
By dealing with the above firm our
readers will avoid being swindled, as
Messrs. Hunter & Co., have the repu
tation of being honest and honorable
dealers.

—The Bona. relates the story of a
monk by day and a brigand by night.
He is said to be a very holy friar and
a very bold robber, so that it is
difficult to say in what role he most
excels.
Bov. A. J. Byaa.
Father Ryan, tin popular author of
nuowrous poem* relating to the South
and the <’onfodefab War. and the «e
complished o>Utor-iit chief pf the
Bantu r of ' the South of this city, con
templates delivering a leeturc in
' Charleston, S. C., on the 27th instant
for the lionefit of St. Patricks Male
Orphan Asylum. The popularity of
the lecturer, coupled with the felt ini
portanee of the noble charity he is to
represent, can but rcsiflt in establish
ing a widespread interest in this
matter among the generous public of
our sister city.
A l.aundry Seerel.
The following recipe for doing up
shirts will be found of use by many
housewives: Take two ounces of fine
white gum arabic powder—put it into
a pitcher and pour on a pint or more
of water —and then, having covered it,
let it stand all night. In the morning
pour it carefully from the dreg» into a
clean bottle, cork it and keep it for
use. A table-spoonful of gum water
stirred in a pint of starch made in the
ufeual manner, will give to lawns,
either white or printed, look of new
ness, when nothing else can restore
them after they have been washed.
Short Dresses
Are good things for the shoemakers
and bad for the doctors. The ladies
buy and wear better -shoes, and the
doctors‘report a noticeable decline in
diseases among women coming from
damp, cold feet. When long garments
prevailed, women were very careless
in this respect, often wearing thin and
broken shoes, and this, together with
the dampness al ways clinging to their
long skirts, brought on illness, which
not unfrequently terminated fatally.
Industrial Schools.
The establishment in Augusta of one
or more schools on a free industrial
plan is a matter which should claim at
once the liest efforts and noblest gen
erosity of her benevolent and humane
citizens.
Within the limits of our city, in the
humbler walks of life, there are scores
of little girls, who, without the inter
position of some such noble charity,
must blossom into womanhood igno
rant of all those arts of handicraft and
housewifery, which so embellish and
beautify home. The very station of
life in which circumstances have
thrown them, is unfavorable to their
instruction at home in the varied
branches of needle-work, embroidery,
etc., which are not only so essential
to woman’s position in domestic life,
but oftentimes constitute her sole de
pendence for the necessaries of exist
ence.
We shall not insult the good sense
and benevolence of our community by
anything like argument on this point.
We regard the importance of this mat
ter too palpable to require more than
a simple suggestion. We .desire sim
ply to induce thought on this subject,
assured that a consideration of it in
its varied bearings on the interests of
society, must lead to action in the pre
mises, by those who profess to be gov
erned by the spirit of Christian philan
thropy.
The Western Hog Trade.
The Cincinnati Price Current, of
Wednesday, says:
Hogs have come to market rather sparing
ly, which must be attributed to the line
feeding weather, and to the fact that prices
are rather below the estimate of feeders.
Large receipts cannot be expected until the
weather breaks. The demand for tlie hog
product has been fair, but prices declined,
though the price of hogs advanced. The
weather has been very favorable for curing,
and packers inform us that pork is curing
more rapidly and perfectly than for many
years.
The Louisville Courier remarks :
The market is active and firmer, under the
impression that the crop, at least in Ken
tucky, will prove a short one, and the pack
ers are meeting the views of drovers more
freely. We bear of sales of 1,815. hogs, in
lots, as to weight, at prices ranging *7.35 to
$7.85 gross; and also a sale of a selected lot
of extra heavy hogs at 8 cents gross.
Tub Keith Testimonial.—The
neat and appropriate tomb erected in
Bt. Michael’s Churchyard to the mem
ory of the late pastor, already referred
to in the Xews, is surmounted by a
cross, and in the centre of the tomb,
on a raised crucifix, is inscribed:
“ Rev. Paul Trapier Keith, born Octo
ber 26, 1801 ; died August 23, 1868.”
On the relieved part below is the fol
lowing scriptural text: “Blessed are
the dead who die in the Lord; yea,
saith the Spirit, that they may rest
from their labors.” Rev. xiv : 13. On
the die below is engraved : “ The la
dies of St. Michael’s Church had this
stone erected in testimony of their
affection for their much loved rector.”
The grave is enclosed by marble slabs,
and carefully arranged and adorned.

The Marion Disturbance.—A
correspondent writing to the News,
under date of Saturday, the sth iust.,
says that the prisoners in the jail arc
still rebellious and have not yet sur
rendered to the authorities, although
they have had nothing to cat since
Thursday last, the day ou which the

West End Accident.—On Satur
day night, about seven o’clock, the
keeper of a drinking saloon, named
Buston Gorham, was shot by the ac
cidental discharge of a pistol which
was in his pocket. He was walking
across the floor at the time of the
shooting. The ball from the pistol,
' after passing through the scrotum, en
tered the left thigh in the neighbor
■ hood of the femoral artery and fanged
downward. Up to this writing the
ball had not been extracted.
Just previous to the accident we
learn that Gorham had been beating
an old and inoffensive man.— Atlanta
Intelligencer, xth.
Resumption of (specie Payments.
—There is a powerful combination
now forming in this city, headed by
Jay Cooke, for the purpose of securing
an early resumption of specie pay
ments. The combination is said to
embrace a large number of the ablest
men in the Republican ranks, who
repudiate the proposition of Senator
Sherman to prepare for resumption
two years hence. They express the
determination to nave specie payments
at a much earlier day, and the purpose
is to press for au immediate resump
tion. A leading politician, here, who
professes to bo in the combination,
says that the scheme is fully endorsed
by Gen. Grant, who will threw the
whole weight of his influence in its
favor, and who w ill take an active part
in securing its success.— Washington
Letter in Baltimore Gazette.
Annexation.—Considerable agita
tion at present exists in East New
York in consequence of a movement
which has been set on foot by some
of thq principal propertv owners to
have the place annexed to Brooklyn.
East New York is a rising locality,
and is distant one hour and ten minutes
from Fulton Ferry. It has churches
and schools, and a newspaper called
the Sentinel is published there. A
largo proportion of the inhabitants;
who dread au increase of taxation in
the event of its being incorporated with
Brooklyn, are opposed to the measure.
They settled down there for the pur
pose of obtaining quiet and cheap
homes; but the demand for property
in that locality has caused East New'
York to increase rapidly within the
last few years, and it now contains
about ton thousand inhabitants, scat
tered over a considerable area. The
majority of residents seem to be in
favor of obtaining a village charter,
and arc opposed to annexation. The
question will probably be brought bee
fore the next Legislature, when a
lively time may be expected. How
ever, when the East River shall be
tunnelled and Ri-idyad, Brooklyn will
soon swell beyond its present bounds,
and absorb all the townships in Kings
county.— N. K Nww.

—A one-half interest in the well
known Mills House, of Charleston,
was sold at auction, on Tuesday, at
the very low figure of £35,000, to
Cohen, Hankel & Co. Terms: one
third cash, balance payable iu one and
two years. The auctioneer (Mr. Eruns)
announced that the Mills House was
built at a cost of £160,000 in gold, and
could not now be built for less than
$200,000. Ile also said that the re-
ceipts of the bar-room had averaged
£BO per day, or £60,000 in the year,
and that an offer had been made to
rent it at £5,000 a year.

and then sank down, saying, “ Boys,
I’ve lost the bet,” and instantly ex
pired.

SMOKING TOBACCO.
CumpfU-nt allies pronounce it beat for many
reasons:
Il is made of the l>e*t stock grown.
The Nicotine is extracted; there are
No drugs iu it, consequently it is
Ant.i-eervons in its eitects.
It has an agreeable, aromatic flavor;
Does not burn or sting the tongue;
Leaves no unpleasant aftertaste in the
Month, or disagreeable odor in the room.
Instead of exciting the nervous forces,
It allays irritation, and calms them.
We regard it as the perfection of ,
Smoking Tobacco. Orders for elegant

In the varions sized bags in which it is sold,
As an extra inducement for those
