Municipal AflUlrs.
The City Council met at 12 o'clock,
yesterday, for the purpose of qualifying
the Mayor and Members elect. There
are in the present Council but three
Members who were in the old. Most of
the others were not candidates, and the
two who were lelt out were defeated on
account of some side issues foreign to
their Council membership. They were
both faithful and attentive to their
official duties, and can have tiro con
solation that it was, as we believe, no
dereliction on that account that defeated
them. To tho retiring Members we can
extend our congratulations. They are
leaving behind them a vast amount of
trouble, and thankless and profitless
labor. They have had much to contend
with. The unexpected result of the
war, military law, the destruction of the
currency, the vexed question of finances,
the imposition of taxation, and other
subjects of importance, have arisen
during their tenure of office, aud put all
their municipal,parliamentary, and finan
cial ability to tho test; and we think
that justice requires (hat they should
have great credit for the manner in
which they have conducted the affairs of
the City.
To Mr. May, however, the thanks of
this community are particularly due.
As Mayor of the City, he has for five
years performed the duties of that office
with signal ability—managing its finan
ces with considerable skill—and contrib
uting greatly to the relief of our citizens.
To his foresight and charitable senti
ments are we indebted for the establish
ment of the Purveying Association,
which contributed so much to tho support
of the poor of Augusta during and since
the war.
It was this charity which relieved
our City from being placed under com
plete military law, when the Federal
army took possession here, General
Moliueux assuring the Mayor that he
would allow the City Authorities to
continue in office on account of the
great care which had been taken of the
poor—a provision which surpassed that
of any other Southern City which he had
visited. This was a high compliment
to our worthy Mayor, hut not more than
he deserved ; for the hundreds of poor
families who were supplied by that
Association will ever hold its founder in
grateful remembrance for the good that
he has done for them. Having per
formed his duties zealously and faith
fully, he now retires to private life and
the pursuit of his own business with the
approbation of his fellow-citizens, and
the heartfelt good wishes of hundreds of
friends. The resolutions which were
offered by Mr.Foster to-day in this regard,
were appropriate and well deserved, and
we give them our cordial approval.
To the new incumbent, Mr. Gardiner,
we also extend our good wishes. He
comes into office with a very flattering
majority, and brings to the discharge
of his duties a knowledge, experience,
and ability, which eminently qualify him
for the position. In all that tends to
promote the interests of the City he may
rest assured tl*t he will have the earn
est co operation of the Press.
To the defeated candidates, we would
offer our sympathies, but we think that
they rather deserve our congratulations.
A municipal position is by no means a
bed of roses, and in their defeat they
have escaped a vast deal of trials and
tribulations for which they can never be
compensated by the mere honors of the
office. And besides this, they can well
enjoy the reflection, that it is no disgrace
to be defeated by honorable opponents
as theirs’ were, and that all received
flattering testimonials of public appre
lion in the respectable number of votes
which they received.
We are pleased that the election is
over, and that it passed off as quietly
and pleasantly as it did. We gave our
readers ono little piece of advice before
the election, and that was, to avoid all
animosity and expressions of ill feeling
to select good men and vote for them. We
beg leave now to offer one more piece,
and that is, to reflect that the interests
of the City should be the first care of
the good citizen, that all the asperities
of the late canvass should be banished*
and harmony aud goqd feeling prevail
among all our people. Let us all ac
cept the result in good faith, whether
we like it or not, and give the new ad
ministration a fair trial, and our hearty
and cordial support in all their en
deavors to promote the interests, the
welfare, and the prosperity of our City.
Latest New l'ork. Market.
Messrs W. Henry Warren & Cos., have
kindly furnished us with Messrs. Ober,"
Nansen & Co's Monthly Circular, which
being of interest to our merchants, we
give below:
New York, April lUi, 1866.
Cottox.— The market for tho past month
opened at -toe. for middling uplands, aud
under a brisk speculative and export de
mand, advanced on tho 2d and fid to 44c.
On the sth the advance of Ic. was lost, and
tho price again settled at 4.'!, continuing
heavy until tho Bth, when the Java arrived,
with l.iverpool dates to tho evening of tho
21th, quoting “a dull und fiat market at
1 for middling Orleans.” These advices,
with the decline of gold gave us a very
heavy market at prices fully lc. lower, weak
aud very irregular, l-’rom the lOth to tho
14th, under the continued decline of gold,
our market was very irregular, weak and
unsettled, and a basis of 4U was barely
maintained.
On the 14th tho Hibernia arrived, with
dates to the 2d, quoting “a buoyant market,
with an advance for tho week on American
of#to id;” this, with an advance of the
gold premium early in the day, gave us an
active market at-lie.
On the nth, gold having still further de
clined, the market was very heavy, and it
was quite difficult to effect sales at 41 e.
which was the quoted price. The general
tone of tho market remained very weak
until the 22d, when tho Australasian arrived,
with Liverpool dates to the 10th. advising
“market buoyant and a tritlo higher, mid
dling upland's 19 to HIM", which gave us
quite an active market during that day and
a part of tho succeeding one at 41c. The
advance and activity was, however, lost in
consequence of a further decline in gold
and sterling ; and up to the 28th, when the
China arrived, transactions wero very limi
ted, nominally at 40c., but really at a sha
ding of from i to lc. per lb. under that
quotation.
The advices by the China of an “advance
of pi with largo sales, middling uplands
20d,” gave us considerable activity and a
tolerably firm feeling, and prices were fully
up to the quotation of 41c.
On the 2d inst. the City of Paris arrived,
with dates to the 22d ult., quoting “market
dull and prices weak, inquiry small, mid
dling uplands 193d;” this news, and a re
duction of the gold premium, produced more
anxiety to soli; aud prices yielded fully lc.,
closing nominally at. 49c.
In our Provision Markot the regular busi
ness has been small during the past month,
and at the close there is less confidence ex
hibited by- holders. Complete returns of
tho Pork packing in tho West for the past
season, show a decrease as compared with
the previous season of about 18 per cent.
The packing of 1564-05 wns 2,451.1)19 hogs,
that of '65-66 as per reliable returns, was
l. hogs, gaining Mo pounds per hog,
MOI.2MG hops, or 1,981,710 hogs, being a net
deficit of 406,809 hogs. -Many of the larger
holders having expected a deficiency of
from 25 per cent, to MM per cent., ns com
pared with the previous season, on the pub
lication of tho above returns there was a
disposition to realize, aud sales wero effec
ted at a decided decline.
Jless Pork.— The consumptive demand
is small. Considerable parcels of light Moss
have been taken hv city packers for repack
ing into Prime Moss. The stock of Pork in
this city is 99,246 bhls. Prices ha ve ranged
during the month from s2B.|a§24ii, closing
rather dull at 5252u526 f cash. Sales this
day’for April deliverysellers’ option at
$253u526, also at 526.} buyers’ option, April
Prime Mess Pork is in good demand l'or
export. The market is entirely bare of
Western, and the demand is being supplied
by repackinglight Mess and Pork .Shoulders.
We note sales at $261. Prime Pork is in
fair request at $22a5221.
Lard.— With the decline in Sterling Ex
change the market is very dull. The de
crease in the yield of Lard as compared with
1864-05, is about 10 pier cent. We note
sales for April delivery at ISJaPJ-Je., closing
at 185a 19c. cash, or April delivery.

rr IS WITH PLEASURE THAT WE
I- copy the following notice of the above
Comp«ny from the Atlanta Kew Era. In this
community. Its reliability and promptness in
immediately paying all losses, i< Wei! known,
and rentiers it an institution of pride to our
citizens. Its officers are courteous gentlemen,
with years of experience in the business, to
whieli fact, coupled with their eminent fitness
for tho position, its remarkable prosperity
must he mainly attributed. Tho Era s:»vs:
Acts Si*b*k ‘Louder tiun \V<*«t>s.— \Y<- are
gratified to learn on inquiry that tin- lusuraneo
Company which paid so promptly its loss la
the tire on the corner of Whitehall and Decatur
streets, is aSonthern Company, and none other
than that reliable institution of our Stan*. The
Georgia Home InsukanobComi*any ot Columbus
of which Mr. Jno. C. Wlntner is Agent. 'I he
payment made* within twelve horn s after
the first cry of fire was heard, whilst smoke
was still issuing from the ruins. No third
party came forward to sift and feel about 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 lias been raised that all
Southern Companies were totally ruined. Tin
answer to this is, their investments were made
before the war, and wereiieverelmnged. J heir
loss, therefore, was merely the profits and tlie
labors for four years—though some, like the
Georgia Home, have even come out better than
they entered the war. It is false that they are
insolvent. A most remarkable feature of
Southern Companies is the absence of “Special
Agents” and “Adjusters” to settle up losses.
They go on the presumption that the man they
appoint as agent is honest and capable, suffi
ciently so to he entrusted with the responsible
duty of making out a policy promising to pay
you* in ease of loss, and sufficiently so as to pan
iip losses when they do occur. When, there
fore. you insure with them, your last transac
tion is with the same man—your friend, your
neighbor, your l’ellow-citizen —with whom your
first occurred.
Wo do not mean to he sectional in our ad
vice, hut we do think when we can build up
ourselves and our own people at the same cost
and with great'r advantage to ourselves, it is
our duty to do so. There are a number of
Southern Companies represented here who are
perfectly reliable.
Call on that experienced Insurance man and
polite Southern gentleman, Mr. Whitner, at
Metamy & Co.’s Drug there, and he will give
you a list that will surprise you.

EDITED BY
JOSEPH JONES, M. 1).
Profrssnr of Medical ('hcinistrv in the. Medical
College of Georgia, ot Angusta; and
J'onnt.rlu Kurgctr* in Ihe
Provisional ‘ Ari* if of the Confederate, States.
The SOUTHERN MEDICAL and SUR
GICAL JOURNAL, of Augusta, Georgia,
was established in 1830. by the late Professor
Hilton Antony, the illustrious founder of
the Medical College of Georgia, and has al
ways commanded the respect and patronage
of the Profession, not only as one of the
oldest and largest American Periodicals,
but chiefly by those valuable original com
mon icatio is, contributed by the most emi
nent, scientific men and practitioners of the
Southern States, which have enriched its
pages during the past thirty years. Tho
volumes already issued, embrace over six
teen thousand closely printed pages, con
taining more than six hundred original
communications from professional men
throughout the Southern States, besides an
immense number of valuable articles, select
ed from its ample list of American aud
foreign exchanges.
During the reeentViv'd war. the publica
tion of the SOUTHERN MEDICAL AND
SURGICAL JOURNAL was necessarily sus
pended. At the close of a bloody and dis
astrous war, which has ended in the destruc
tion and surrender of the Southern armies,
;uid in the destruction aud capture of the
„archives of the Confederate Government, and
of the immense stores of medical facts and
observations accumulated by the Medical
Officers of tho Confederate Army, under the
direction of their intelligent and efficient
,Surgeon 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
publication of the valuable experience, of tho
Medical Officers of the late Confederate
Army.
It will be the earnest effort of the Editor
to sustain the former usefulness of this
Journal ns a medium for the communica
tion of tho discoveries and advancing doc
trines of science aud of all the departments
Medicine, and of tho facts and discove
ries tending to develop the material pros
perity of the South, and especially of the
valuable Medical statistics and observations
of the recent disastrous revolution.
In view of tho good accomplished in times
past by the publication of the SOUTHERN
MEDICAL AND SURGICAL JOURNAL,
the Editor feels no hesitation in urging its
claims upon its former patrons and friends.
The SOUTHERN MEDICAL AND SUR
GICAL JOURNAL will be issued every
TWO MONTHS, commencing Ist of July,
18fifi, and each number will contain ONE
HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-SIX PAGES
of printed matter, (octavo); the yearly
publication will therefore number One
Thousand and Fifty-six pages, and be equal
in size to the largest Afneriean and Euro
pean Journals.
TERMS—Five Dollars Ter Annum, in

their names at once r as it is important that*
