A ticket j tiT Councilman in the Fourth Ward appear ed over the s : gnature of S A Frain. Mr Frain did not Authorize the publication of ti*ticket; but through the iguorance or c:\rlessne , »j» of the person to whom it wa* entrusted, his name was attached to it. We j presume that the object of the publication j was not to do 11113' oue an injury, but situply j to have a little fun : still, it was wrong to j fii!»t»*u the responsibility of it upon any j other than the author; and wo regret that j Mr Frain should have been subjected to any ‘ annoyauce on account of the error, Gnni'Cr, Etc.—We invite attention j to the advertisement of Mr. J. J. Browne. I cf No. 137 Broad street, who offers his ser- : rices in giidiug, reparing and n aking I picture frames. Mr. Browne wra* formerly \ in business in Columbia, S. C.. but was one of the sufferers by the destruction of that city wheb Gen. Sherman passed through it. He now come' to se’tle among us, and will, wc h<'pe, meet with that encouragemeur which he deserves, lie offers to da all work in his line as cheaply as it can be had at the N’..rth. Let us not fail to patronize home industry. It is the best and surest way to advance the prosperity of the country. Marrying for Money.—The local ; cf the Mobile Tribune tells of a man named D II Milo maprying a prepossossiug widow iu Augusta. Ga, who bad a long purse, taking her to the former city, and then leaving her with htr sister to take care of herself, j When she sent for him to come and see her, i be did so, and cursed her and threatened her life, whereupon she bad him brought ; .before the Mayor, who said he was unable j to make Milo give up the money, but re- ■ quired him to give bond in the sum of j $2,600 to keep the peace towards his wi r e. : The Tribune draws the following “Morules” j from the incident: “Mural to the LnJ>e§. —lf you have a long ■ purse and wish to get married, find out who ao<i what the man is before you bestow your pjr*H, hand and heart upon him. “Moral to Mnney-huntHr*.— If you marry a 1 woman tor money treat h»*r well even if you don’t love her much, or you may, like Milo, bring up in the guard house. w An Academy ok Music.—The Macon T'leqraph states that it is proposed to build an Opera House in that city at a cost ot about $60,000. It is to be capable of hold ing 1,500 persons. Couldn't our enterprising capitalists get up something of the kind iu Augusta? M e need a largo hall for musical and other entertainments, and such a one would, we think, be very profitable. There was some talk during the war about making a theatre of the City Hotel. If the Express Com pany take a notion, they might fix up something good there. How a Hog Sweats.—Not like a horse or a man, but through his forelegs. There is a spot on each leg just below the kuee, in the form of a sieve. Through this the sweat passes off. And it is necessary that this is kept open. If it gets closed, as is sometimes the case, the hog will get sick ; he will appear stiff and cramped—and unless he gets relief it will go hard with him. To cure him, simply open the pores. This is done by rubbing the spot with a corn cob and washing with warm wat“r.* Communication with Savannah.— We learo that some of our enterpr.sing citizens are making arrangements to pur chase a number of light draught steamers suitable for the River trade, and when these are completed, they will establish a daily line between this city and Savannah. This will be a great accommodation to our citi zens generally, and the business portion of the community particularly. The enter prize is in the bands of some of our most experienced river boatmen^ Georgia Land Aoescy.—We invite the particular attention of our readers to the advertisement of Jacob R. Davis A Son. They will sell land, negotiate loans, procure white laborers, and purchase working im plements, etc., all on reasonable terms. Farmers and business men trill find it greatly to their interest to avail themselves of the experience and facilities of Messrs. Davis. Their office is at No. 292 Broad street, and their address is P. 0. Box 63- Screven- House.— We pave to our reader ß a few days ago, an account of the improvements at this excellent Hotel in Savannah. It is one of the most complete establishments of the kind in the South, and I travellers to or through Savannah will find it to their interest to make their home at the Screven House. Room to Bent. —Charles H. Rogers advertises a room to rent, in as eligible lo cation. To THo Public. In view of the eziateoee of the cholera in the Wcet ladle* and apprehensions of its approach to this continent, it becomes the duty of the authorities to take such sani tary and precautionary inea>uict as may prevent it altogether or lessen its severity if it should, de-pite si oh measures, reach this country. In pursuance of ibis duty, 1 have published the Thirty-fourth Section of the Gcueral Ordinance, whiih requires all persons in the city to have their lots kept clean and dry ; to remove all decaying and decayed vegetable and animal substances, and to place the same in convenient heaps in the street*, before nine o'clock each morn ing—Sundays excepted. To facilitate the removal of the trash and filth thus accumulated in the streets, Gene ral Brennan, commanding this District, and Captain C. K. Smith, U. S. Quartermas ter, have voluntarily and kindly placed at my disposal a number of wagons and teams, with drivers, while the laborers have been suppHed by the city authorities, and all placed under the charge of a competent superintendent. I now appeal to the citizens of Augusta to render uil the aid in their power iu this work of cleaning out the city. They can have their lots cleaned out promptly and th roughly, and the trash thereby accumu lated in the (Greets will be speedily removed In doing this they are but performing an imperative duty—the preservation of the health of the community and the preven tion of a terrible scourge. I hope that no one will hesitate to do this duty, but perform it cheerfully and with alacrity. Respectfully, ROUT. H. MAY, Mayor C. A. St. Patrick’s Day Rai.l. The sons and daughters of the Emerald Ish» while ever true to the land of their adoption, arc always mindful of the old land which gave them birth, and memories of which, some painful, some pleasant, will never etas* to cluster around them. One of them memories is the anniversary of their Patron Saint, tho good Saint Patrick, which anni versary occurs to-morrow. But they witt commence its observance this evening by a grand Ball at Masonic Hall. The occasion will, we are sure, ho one «*f great p’easure to all who have the good fortune to he present. Our Irish friends are always on fait at any thing in the way of amusement, and those who have charge of this evening** Ball are determined that all present shall enjoy themselves, and they have, accordingly, made all the neoessaiy arrangements, to that effect. Besides, the object ot' pleasure, which would induce several to go there, there is another object, and that is to raise a fund for the benefit of Augusta Fire Company, No 5. This Company is one ol the best and most efficient of our very efficient Fire De partment, and deserves a real benefit. Hence, those who do not wish to dance, or to look at others engaged iu Torpsichorian pleasures,can buy a ticket anyhow, as it is for a goad object, and so aid iu the benefit to the Company. We wish our friends a pleasant evening, and a-jnibstantial benefit. Consignees per Cf.vi ■ w. Hail Road.
