April 11. 1866 Jab Prlntlns In Plain and Fancy Colors, neatly, cheaply and promply executed nt this Office, llaring fast power presses, the best material, and skilled workmen, euables us to do Job Work at tho lowest figures aud best manner. 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. A.

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. C. A A. G.

Southern Medical & Surgical Til IHD SERIES— 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 Advance. Subscribers arc requested to send forward their names at once r as it is important that* the Publisher should have some idea before hand of the number of copies to be printed.
