FAREWELL MESSAGE.
Gentlemen of the City Council of Augusta :
1 This is the last Regular Meeting of our
official term. We are about to surrender the
great trusts which have been committed to
us for the past twelve months, into the bands'
of those, to bo chosen by tho citizens of AiLl
gusta. Our acts have become a part of tp?
history of our city, and whether we harp
acted wisely err not, is a question which thtitoe
who placed us in the position we now occupy
alone must determine.
We hove been associated together in tho
service of our city under circumstances of a
peculiar character. We have had many and
Serious difficulties to contend with to enable
Us to carry on the administration* of affairs
—difficulties which it is to bo hoped will
never agaiu be experienced. It* we have in
some particulars failed to satisfy public ex
pectation, I am confident that the people,
proverbially generous', will recognize the
spirit by which we have been animated, and
do justice to our motives. My official con
nection with you has been always of a plea
sant character, and I have sought to sub
serve tho interest of Augusta. * *
It is eminently proper that upon this oc
cupation 1 should make brief allusion to my
self. lam about to retire from the Mayor
alty in accordance with a determination
long sinco formed and repeatedly expressed.
For five successive years I have been honor
ed by my fellow citizens with the position,
and it would be the depth of ingratitude to
ward them if l! were to omit any just op
portunity of acknowledging ray obligation
for the kindness they have ever exhibited to
ine—the confidence they reposed in my ex
ertions to promote their interest, and the
uuanimity with which they have declared
their appreciation of my services.
The most cherished reflection of my fu
ture life will be the recollection of their
friendship and support. To very-many of
them I have been personally indebted for
valuable assistance iu conducting the
affairs of the City. Among those who have
• stood prominently forward to my aid in
times of financial despondency, I espe
cially mention Benjamin 11. Warren, Esq.
This gentleman, with a public spirit which
does him infinite honor, has never tailed to
respond to every appeal made to him by
me ; and it is mainly to his liberality that
the continuous administration of financial
affairs is due. 1 fake great pleasure in
alluding to his‘aid. and in rendering ray
tribute to his disinterested exert ions, I also
express my acknowledgement to Josiah
Sibley, Esq?, who has, with his service and
experience, ■•boon of tho highest, advantage.
When I came into tllo office of Mayor,
I had no feeling but those of friendship
aud charity toward the entire people of
tho City. I have htriven to do my whole
duty, as I understood it. regardless of all
other than the dictates of my own con
science. In leaving the office I can truly !
say that I harbor in ray heart no spirit of
unfriendliness toward any, but that I
desire to bo at peace ’with all men, and I
personally trust that under thertign of
peace with which wo are now bfuflwrd, wo
shall go on prospering and to prosper until
our most glowing anticipations fre crowned
with complete success.

The SOUTHERN MEDICAk and SUR
GICAL JOURNAL, of AiWta, Georgia,
>vaa established in 1836, by tb/late Professor
Milton Anlony, the illustrious founder of
the Medical College of Geoigia, and has al

immense number of valuable articles, select

During the recent’eivil war, the puhlica
tion of the SOUTHERN MEDICAL AND

pended. At the close fa bloody and dis
astrous war, which has ended iu the destruc
tion and surrender of the Southern armies,
and in the destruction and capture of the
archives of the Confederate Government, and
of the immense stores of medical facts and
observations accumulated by the Medical
Officers of the Confederate Army, under tho
direction of their intelligent and efficient
.‘"urgeon General, it is believed by medical
men of the highest standing in this section
of the South, that it is important to estab
lish at this time a Medical Periodical of
sufficient size to furnish ample room for the

Medical Officers of the late Confco* '

TT IS WITH PLEASURE THAT WE
JL copy tho following notice of the above
Company from tho Atlanta New Era. In. this
community. Us reliability and promptness in
immediately paying all losses, is well known,
and renders it an institution of pride to our
i citizens. Its officers are courteous gentlemen,
with years of experience in tho business, to
which fact, coupled with their eminent fitness
for the position, its remarkable prosperity
must be mainly attributed. The Eva savsc
Acts Spkae ‘Louder than Words.— we are
gratified to learn on inquiry that the Insurance
Company which paid so promptly its loss by
the fire on the corner of Whitehall and Decatur
streets, is a Southern Company, and none other
than that reliable institution of oar State. The
Georgia Home Insurance of Columbus,
ofwhi h Mr. .Tno C. Whittier is Agent. J
payment was made within twelve hours Aflrr
the first cry of fire was heard, whilst smoke
was still issuing from tho ruins. No third
party came forward to sift nnd feel ahout for
flaws, but the Agent issuing the policy also
makes the payment just so soon as satisfied of
its justness.
We ask our merchants and citizens to note
these facts. The cry has been raised ihai all
Southern Companies were totally mined. The
answer to this is, their investments were made
before the war, aDd were never changed. Their
loss, therefore, was merely the profits .and the
i labors for four years—though some, like the
Gboeoja Hoke, tiave even come out better than
they entered the war. It is false that they are
