Owing to an overflow' of the “ milk
of human kindness” in the heart of
Dr. 11. Marshall, of Atlanta, he has
invented a milk pail, so constructed,
that should “Old Brindle,” or any

Jacob Bryant (colored), for violation
of Drumming Ordinance. Sufficient
evidence to convict the accuse*! was
not obtained, and the case was dis

Wanted a Home.
Two colored individuals, Simon
Madison and Elias Eve,were so carried
away with the idea of building a house
for themselves, that they carried away
a large portion of a plank fence on
the premises of Mr. John Phinizy,
about three miles from the city, with
which they accomplished their pur
pose’ to a considerable degree of com
fort. Caught in the act, they were
tried yesterday morning before Justice
Phinizy, and their present home is at
the County Hotel, where they have
the privilege of remaining f or twelve
months at hard labor. Verily,
“There is no place like home.”
Hot Supper at Aiken.

of Aiken, S. C., propose to give a hot
supper, in connection with a Christmas
tree and delightful music from the
acconiplishcd and skilled Amateurs of
Augusta. An address is also expected

to assist in raising funds to build a
Catholic Church at Aiken, and wo
trust a liberal patronage may crown
the efforts of those concerned.
A special train will leave the depot
at 6 p. in., this evening, and return at
12 o’clock to-night.
Tickets, only §1 for the trip, can be
had at the stores of Messrs. Kenny

Blackwood's Magazine for Decem
ber.—We have so often spoken of the
value of this periodical, that we have
no doubt most of our readers are
familiar with it’, at least by repute;
and without going further into details,
we content ourselves with giving a list
of the articles in the present number :
Doubles and Quite —A Comedy of
Errors, Part II—A very amusing story
of mistaken identity; Historical
Sketches of the Reign of George II —
Another of those graphic descriptions
which bring past scenes and characters
before us as in a picture; Kinglake's
History of the War in the Crimea —<
Those who cannot afford to purchase
this book will find a good substitute
for it in this review ; Dean Milman—
A biographical sketch; Cornelious
O’Dowd—A continuation of those
favorite light satiricval comments on
current ideas and events; What is to
Coine of It?—An article on the politi
cal situation of England.

This vast amount, it must lie remem

this immense number of locomotives.
Reduced to American dollars, it foots
up a coin valuation of oyer eighty -two
millions. This immense capita], too,
is invested in but a single leading item
of twelve of the chief* railways of
Great Britain. In contemplating other
necessary investments to maintain
these great lines of freight and travel,
our head swims to such an extent,
that were we not a devout believer in
the truth of figures, we should cry '

The Milledgeville Tournament.
The young gentlemen of Milledge
ville, on Christmas Day, indulged
themselves in the classic and exciting
contests of a tournament. We copy
from tire Eecortltr tho list of Knights
and Order of Biding:
Hunter McComb, Knight ,of Bandolleer;
George Harrison, Knight of Bayorict; Geo.

Knight of the Red Cross; Burke Spalding
(third honor), Knight of the Silver Cross;
Tim. Hawkins, Knight of the Rising Star;
J. A. Orme, Knight of the Red Rose; Joseph
Bowles (second honor), Knight of the White
Rose.
The dresses of the Knights were appro
priate, and tastefully gotten up.
Mr. R. N. Stubbs won the first honor;
Joseph Bowles the second,'and G. W. Hol
linshead and Burke Spalding shared the
third honor, after two trials, tying each other
both times. .
In the evening, at Newell’s Hall, Mr.
Stubbs Miss Mary V. White Queen
of Love and Beauty—who, by the way, is
worthy of the honor at any and all times.
Mr. Bowles honored Miss Anna Tucker as
first Maid of Honor, and Messrs. Hollinshead
and Spalding honored .Misses Fannie Ham

Honor.
Mr. Seaton Dußignon, won the Heraldry,

Cheapaeas aad Dispatch.
These are, or should be, the govern
ing ideas of all those engaged in the
carrying trade. Annihilation of space
must eventually produce a propor
tionate decrease of rates in passage,
until we reach the millcnium of cheap
travel. ‘What a jolly time wc shall
all have of it when a man, as Mr.
Braddon, of England suggests, shall
be sent from one end of the land to
the other, like a three cent letter,
subject to no further charges! He
insists upon it that the thing can be
done in that country’, and that a three
penny stamp would be enough to pay
for any’ single journey, no matter how
long or how short it might, be. He
bases his calculation upon the passen
ger traffic of 1865, when 3,500,000
passenger trains ran over 71,000,000
miles, and carried 252,000,000 pas
sengers. This traffic produced
£14,724,302, giving an average of
about 21 miles and 73 passengers for
each train, or about 3| passengers per
mile, and an average fare for the pre
sent average journey of fourteen
pence.
Mr. Braddon has no doubt that the
reduced rates would increase the traffic
six-fold, which would give the railroad
companies an excess of £4,000,000 of
receipts, with very little additional ex
pense, at a threepenny rate. He claims
that of this increased nuinper onp
seventh would ride first-class, at one
shilling, and two-sevenths second
class, at sixpence, which would
raise the return of the railroads from
£14,750,000 to £32,000,000.
Strange as the proposition may
seem at first sight, these figures show
that it is not only feasable, but would
be highly profitable. Mr. Braddon
would literally frank a man like a let.
ter, and bid him God-speed to the end
of his journey.
If he wished to travel third-class, he
must possess a three-penny stamp; if
second-class a sixpenny stamp; if
first-class a shilling stamp. It is no
more than the application of Sir
Roland Hill’s postoffice plan to pas
senger-carrying, and we predict for it
an immense popularity by and by,
although the usual opposition from
old established customs, and the preju
dice of a class, with vested interests to l
back them, are to be expected as
matters of course. Such a revolution
in travelling would create a revolution
in Social feeling, culture and enjoy
ment, and enable every one—even the
poorest—to avail himself of the
mighty resources of railway locomo
tion for any purpose, either of busi
ness or of pleasure.

The production of this great aeuuk
lienal drama « Ciuccrl Hall, last
bight, by Terdflctoß’s double Star
Comply, waerMeomed byie literal
patronage of the beauty and fashion
of Augusta.
The <>ld favorites, Alice and Isabel
Vane, were greeted with deinonstra
tioipi oi gratification by the
audience, m they so truthfully and ar
tistically’ delineated their respective
roh s, each of whom evidenced a most
accurate conception of the characters
personated by them.
To speak in detail of all the artistes
would extend this notice beyond
reasonable length, so that we shall
content ourselves with simply’ a
■ general endorsement of the happy
and effective manner in which the
discrimination and talent of the entire
troupe was exhibited. From the
most subordinate to the most promi*
nent character in the play, there was
manifested a generous contest for ap
proval, and if the demonstrations of
the audience go tor aught, each
artiste won the chaplet of “excelsior.”
We cannot undertake to sketch tho
spirit of this drama beyond the general
description embodied in the fact that
that it is made up of scenes from the
varied phases of New York life, drawn
by’ the pencil of an artiste, whose
colorings show’ of what society is made
The performance will bo repeated
to-night, and we trust that the efforts
of Mr. Templeton will bo crowned
with the patronage and success ho has
justly earned-
The Alabama Claims.
Tho W hshnigtbn correspond ent. of tho
New York Evening Post, writing to
his paper with reference to the Ala
bama claims, says that many
prominent Senators, including mem
bers of the Committee on Foreign
Relations, have had an interchange of
opinion on the subject, and after a
carefill survey, it is found that the
following draft contains all the conces
sions to England which would stand
any chance of being considered or
ratified by the Senate:
1. The British Government must admit its
pecuniary, liability for the depredations of
the Alabama Shenandoah, Florida and Sum
ter, and agree to pay an amount of monev
which shall be determined by a joint
commission to be hereafter appointed.
2. A conuMtfston of four members shall lie
agreed upony each nation appointing two,
and these, jointly, selecting an umpire.
3. This commission shall adjust idl claims
prevented to them by American citizens
which arose out of the depredations commit
ted by any of the above HMied privateers,
and shall investigate each case, and decide
what amount of money is due for said
claims.
4. After this class of claims arc settled the
commission sli/ill pass upon all other classes
of claims by American citizens against Eng
land from 1853 up to the present time.
The commission will likewise consider
all claims of British subjects against the
United States in the following class of
cases:
1. AH cases unseated by British sub
jects residing permanently’ in the United
States.
2. All eases in which the claimant is una
ble to show that he remained neutral during
the late civil war.
3. Those cases decided tinplly by admiralty
courts.
The above draft con tains the largest
concessions which those Senators who
have studied the question thoroughly
are willing to make ; and anything
which falls short has but little chance'
of ratification by’ the Senate.
It has not been ascertained whether
or not this draft differs hiaterially
from Mr. Seward’s views.
The London Times of December
26th hart another lono article on the
subject of the Alabama claims, it
says the people of Both England and
America are uneasy in regard to the
relations which are to exist in future
between the two nations. The un
easiness arises from an ignorance of
the tone of the negotiations now pend
ing on the Alabama question. The
Times believes that Secretary’ Seward
himself obstructs the settlement, but
that the question will be finally and
amicably adjusted under the iuqoming
adpunistration of President Grant. It
thinks that Reverdy Johnson is not
likely’ to lie removed by the next ad«
ministration, but will be permitted to
remain and complete the work already
begun. If Mr. Seward seeks to delay
the settlement of this important ques
tion he should be humored, but the
basis of the protocol already agreed
upon by Lord Stanley and Mr. Johnson
must remain fixed, and sooner or later
conun an d the consent of both countries.
Sale of Valuable Property in
South Carolina.— The property dis
posed of yesterday brought fair prices,
considering the times. There was
considerable competition. The follow
ing are the principal sales : The “Kins
ler’s Hall” lot, corner of Richardson
and Taylor streets, containing one
fourth of an acre, was bought by Mr.
G. Diercks, at §7,200; the Kinslcr
brick-yard property was bought by
Governor Sprague, of Rhode Island,
for §22,250 ; the Kihsler “homestead”
lot, in Cotton Town, 2} acres, §4,200;
the “old homestead,” on Richardson
street, near Blanding, brought $2,500.
Several lots below the College brought
sums varying from §l2O to §3OO per
acre. We understand that Governor
Scott and several other parties have
purchased, at good prices, several lots
along the canal, with the intention of
erecting manufactories. Txst the good
work go on. Columbia will, in a few
years, we sincerely believe, be one of
the principal manufacturing towns in
the South. She has many facilities—
the principal-being railroad communi
cation hi half a dozen different direc
tions, besides unequalled water power.

Gentlemen— * * ‘ X want to say a little
more about the Pain Killer. 1 consider it a very
valuable medicine, and always keep it on hand.
I have travelled a good deal siuce I have been iu
Kansas, and never without taking it with me.
In my practice I need it freely for the Asiatic
Cholera, in 1819, and with better success than any
other medicine; I also used it here for cholera in
1855, with the same good result.
Truly, yours, A. HUNTING, M. D.

Choleral * » * I regret to say that the
oholera baa prevailed here of late to a fearful
extent. For the last three weeks, from ten to •
fifty or sixty fatal cases each day baa been re
ported. I should add that the Pain Killer, sent
recently from the Mission House, has been used
with considerable success during thia epidemic.
If taken in season is generally effectual in check

Summer Complaint and Dysentery,
Bowel complaints seem jnst now to be the
prevailing element, and any medicine that is
everywhere acceptable, and "that is reliable, is a
very desirable acquisition. From what wo have
seen, heard, and experienced, we believe Davis’
Pain Killer is this desideratum. For the best
method of using it, we quote from the directions:
"For common bowel complaints, give one tea
spoonful iu a gill of new milk and molasses, in
equal parts, stirrad well together; lessen the dose
lor children, eocording to the age. If the puiu be
severe, bathe the bowels and back with'the medi
eiue. This mode of treatment is good in cases of
the cholera morbus, sudden stoppages, etc. Re
peat the dose every hour.
"The quickest way I over saw the dysentery
cured was by taking one spoonful of the Pain
Killer tn one gill of milk and molasses stirred
well together and drunk hot, at tbe same time
bathmg the bowels freely with medicine. Lot
the does be repeated every hour until the patient
is relieved."
If every person who has reason to fear this
disease would provide themselves with a bottle
of thia medicine, and use as occasion required, we
believe tgreat amount of suffering and sickness
