Aukmtkd.—Wo nro of tbo opinion that there i( sot ■ city in the Union which has a more eflioiout Police than that of Auguato. There ii a moat notioeable im provement for good eince the management of our municipal affaira has passed into the hands of the civil authorities; and under tho discipline of our energetic Mayor, this improvement still progresses. There are but few robberies committed now i and it is seldom that the perpetrators escape. Yesterday, a freedman, who had stolen a mule from Mr. Coehran, of Edgefield, S. C., was arrested and turned over to tho author ties of that District. A couple of colored boys, with a lot of stolen cotton from Hammond’s Warehouse, Hamburg, 8. C., were also arrested, and turned over to the Edgefield authorities. Thus it will be seen that the evil doers on the other side of the River have no im munity from arrest on this side. Oar vigi lant Police are a little too wide-awake for the evil doers. Foreign Exchange Notice. —lt will be seen, by reference to our advertising columns, that Messrs. Branch, Sons A Cos., Bankers of this City, have effected satis factory arrangements with Banks and Bankers of the highest credit in Europe, whereby drafts on the principal cities of “G rest Britain and tho Continent, can be ob tained, inheritances and other claims col lected, and letters of credit issued. This will be of great advantage to the public; to those who lmvo commercial dealings with European cities, or who hare friends and relatives living in the old count ry, or who wish to trade there. It is an ac commodation which all such parties will greatly appreciate, and they will, doubtless, avail themselves of it readily. Messrs. Branch A Sons aro gentlemen of worth and integrity, energetic and enterprising, and we heartily commend them to tho pub lio. Any ono having business transactions with them, will endorse all that wo have said of them, and thank ns for advising them to deal»,with the Messrs. B. Seo their advertisement in another column. A Good “Hit” well Expressed.— The New Y’ork correspondent of the Charles ton A’cics says : “Tho Evmimj Exprenn, in giving an account of tho ‘mill’ between Oolycr and Barney AaroDS, remarked that while oven among prise-fighters it is con sidered mean and dishonorable to give a man a blow while he is on the ground, and said blow is adjudged foul, it is most sur prising that Uncle Sam has had the poor cx-C. S. A. (so-called) on the ground for more than a year, and yet keeps punching him most unmercifully. If I may bo allowed to adopt a phrase not found in Chesters field’s letters to his son, I would say to the ExprtM, from tho bottom of my heart, ‘bnlly for you.’ ” A Correspondent ot the Memphis Argun, writing from Egg’s Point, Missis sippi, says : “Ton or twelve miles below here, at Lake Washington, lives Lieutenant Gen. Wade Hampton, the second greatest cavalry chieftain of the late Confederacy. He owns extensive plantations, upon which he di vides his time, devoting himself chiefly to the congenial pursuits of a Southern gen tleman—hooks, planting, and the chase. His former slaves remain with the General, and are represented as conteuted and indus trious.” The General’s residence is at “Wild Woods,” a few hundred yards from the lake. Called by its sylvan title from the fact of the houso having been built by its present proprietor some twenty years ago, on the very edge of a dense cano brake. Gazelle, No. 4.—This efficient or ganization held a called meeting at their Hall, on Friday evening. John U. Meycr> Esq., the newly elected President, was for mally installed. He was escorted to his seat by a committee of three, heartily wel comed to his position by Capt. Foster, on behalf Gs the Company ; and the President replied in a concise, but to the poiut, speech. The Company, after transacting tho ordi nary business, adjourned. The Impending Epoch.—This is the title of anew journal, published monthly in this City “by Kaluptonoma,” and “de voted to the interests of humanity in an enlarged and liberal sense,” at $2 per an num in advance. An inspection of its columns leads us to the opinion that it is a spiritual organ.

The Department or Education.— Tii Dutiet and Ootl.— The ITouse of Repre sentatives has passed a bill establishing a department of education, authorising the appointment of a commissioner to bo paid $2,000, chief olerk SI,BOO, and two other clerks, SI,BOO and $1,600 per annum. The department is designed to colleot and dis seminate statistics and information con cerning tho best educational modes, eto. These best “educational modes,” with the aohool books in which they Are taught, will emanate from Radical sources ; and having control of the whole matter of education, the new Bureau will take good care that the young idea at the South, white or black, is taught to shoot in the right direction. Now wo only need a department or Bureau of Religion, and tbo reconstruction of tie Republic will be complete. The additional Bureau would only cost a few millions, and It would afford soft places to many loyal men, oven if it failed to promote the na tional piety.—NucccmaA Herald . Augusta Market.
