Papbb Collars.—Our over the way
eotemporary, a few dayi ago, pitched Into
the paper oollart; and now we have another
bombardment of them from another eouroe.
The New York correspondent of tho Charle
ston Aum aayi: “Let all beware of paper
oollura—at leaet such of them as are beau
tifully polished and glued. It has been
positively ascertained that this polish or
gloss is given to the collar by submitting
the paper to a chemical preparation in
which arsenic ii ono of the chief ingredi
ents. Next, that after wearing them for
three years, the akin in the back part of
the neck beoomes impregnated with the
prison, and breaks out into horrible sore*
and carbuncles. There have been hundreds
of instanoes here where this effect has been
produced; wherefore, those who are wise
would do well to take warning in time. It
were simply ridiculous for any one to con
tend that he has worn these collars for a
year or two without any such ill-effoot be
ing produced, fur it has been oalcnlated and
demonstrated that it takes at least three
years for tbo poison to do its work. This
precaution, however, need only be adopted
with tho glossed collars. All that do not
wear this polish—such as wo obsorvo on
some visiting cards which go through
the same profess—are harmless, and may
be worn with impunity. I have heard of a
physician hero who has sixteen patients
afiltoted with terrible sores and carbuncles—
all of them had tho carbuncles on the back
of tho neck, and all have been wearing
these paper collars for threo years past. I
have dwelt thus on the subject, as I mean
to give a timely and important warning to
your readers.”
Messrs. Maude & Wkiuiit have fa
vored us with W. A. <fc G. Maxwell’s Liver
pool Weekly Cotton Circular, from which
we make the following extracts : “Thcro has
been a fair steady trade demand this week,
which, having been freely met, prices have
shown but little fluctuation, quotations,
however, marking on tbo whole a fractional
advance on those of this day last week.
Tho Import has been large, especially of
American, and the total stock is thereby
swelled to the very heavy figure of ono mil*
lion and forty thousand bales. High rotes
of discount continue to rule, and this, added
to tbo almost certainty of an immediate
German war, confines speculation to narrow
limits.
"The total sales of the week amount to
71,710balcs, vix., 4,710 to speeulators, 10,400
to exporters, and 56,000 to the trade.
American is comprised in tho above to the
relative extents of 2,290, 1,310, and 19,120 —
in all 22,720 bales. Transactions “to ar
rive” have been very few, but have been
realising slightly higher prices than our
quotations (or Cotton on spot.
“June 16th, Noon.—Telegraphic an
nouncements are to band of the actual be
ginning of hostilities iu Germany, which
neutralize the effect of the favorable Ameri
can advices per Cuba. A moderate business
to-day at about above quotations.”
Papers. —We received on Sunday
and yesterday, a large supply of newspa
pers, enough to supply our journal lor a
day or two ; but we wont inflict so much on
our readers (it a time. They, uo doubt,
prefer it in more broken doses.
A great number of these papers came by
the courtesy of the Southern Express, an
institution of the country, which grows in
popularity as it extends its arteries through
the Union.
The “Gladiateur” is the new style of
apology for a hat, at present all tbo rage
among the ladies. It was originated by tho
lorettes of Paris. It consists of about
fifty cents worth of braid, woven into tho
shape of a puckered pancake, and orna
mented with vegetable devices, of the mush
room order. Price ten dollars.
Law Card. —The attention of readers
is directed to the law card of G. A. Snead,
Esq. He will practice in the various Courts,
and we commend him to the patronage of
parties needing the services of a lawyer.
Mr. Snead will be found at his office, over
Baker & Caswell’s, on Broad Street.
It Has Arrived. —It has arrived.
It weighs 230 pounds.
It is at the Office Saloon.
It will be served up and out to-day.
It will be served up in the shape of soup
at Lunch.
It will be served up in steaks for families.
It is a Turtlo.
A Moral General—An exchange
says:
“The charge against Gen. Kilpatrick, U.
S. Minister to Chili, is that of having intro
duced an abandoned woman into respecta
ble families in Chili.”
This is the same Kilpatrick that raided
through Georgia. He may be some on gen
eralship, but not much on general morality.
Exit Kilpatrick.

The Lover.—The lover is a monarch;
his heart la the world; he stalks a Colossus
with the little affairs of the universe—the
wars and politics playing at bo-peep
abont his legs. With a sigh in his ear, just
fresh and palpitating from the bosern of
love, and its fellow half strangled in the
throat os it leaps to respond, your lover has
neither sense nor comprehension for the
dull actualities-that other men bruise their
patience against. To him, past and pres
ent, loss and profit, good and ill, are merged
into one sensation; a kiss blots out the
universe, and tbe rapturous ecstacy that
tingles in his blood is light, day, respira
tion—the sum of everything which makes
up existence.
Notice.—The connection of the un
dersigned with the Chronicle & Sentinel
ceases from this date.
Martin V. Calvin.
Augusta, Ga., July Ist, 1366.
We find the above card in the Chronicle

the editorial department of the Chronicle <t-
Sentinel as Associate News and Local Edi

gret his descent from tho tripod. He is a
young man of talent and industry, and we
hope that he may soon have tho editorial
harness on his back again.
The Chronicle & Sentinel.—This
venerable journal put on the airs of a youth
Sunday morning, by coming, out in anew
and haudsomo dress of typo. We congrat
ulate our cotemporary on this evidence of
its prosperity, and hope that the evidence
may continue to increase as time progresses.

Town Marshal of Hamburg, S, C., on the

guage iu the public streets, in violation of
tho 10th section. Ho was lined $lO, or fif
teen days’ work on the streots.
The Fouth.—We understand that the

in their proper places. I was up this
morning before daylight,” he continued,
putting his hand into his pocket for his

wife’s nightcap.
—The daughter of a wealthy man in
Jersey City, last week, made prepara
tions to elope, and threw her dresses out

of sleeping in a bridal bed, he occupied
quarters in a public institution.
