(• mor« truth than poetry in the old say
iug: “One half tho world is Ignorant of
wlmt the other half is doing.” Particu
larly is this true when—
The morning breaks,
And earth in her Milker's smile awakes,
llif light is on all beimv and nbofe,
The light of gludue£s, and light and love.
A» the fragrant morning is first bursting
into shining loveliness, the earth becomes
possessor *>f a beauty that is as rare as it Is
entrancing. There is so much of quiet in
the streets and houses of tho city, so much
of calmness in the face of nature, so much
that is in strong contrast with tho sceno
enacted as tho day advances, that one can
not help giving himself to thought, or,
rnoro properly, to musing.
A few mornings ago, through tho kind
ness of those clever gontlcmen, Messrs.
Wilson A Pournello, we wero afforded the
pleasure of a morning’s drive around the
city. Beforo giving the reader an inkling
of what wo saw, it may not ho improper for
us to say a word or two about the vehicle
iu which wo rode, and tho animal attached
thereto. Like all those which Mossrs. W.
A P. have for tho public uso, the vehicle
was a nice, tidy buggy, and the animal a
spirited, well fed and groomed, swift and
easily managed horse.
We started in time to enjoy tho morn
ing breezes, and to meet numberless water
melon and vegetable carts, hurrying to the
public mart, where, for tho most part, only
one or two representatives of each family
in the city, at*cud to supply the wants of
the other members who remain in bod—de
nying themselves the exhiliration and gen
eral good health, which can alone be secured
by early rising.
The city has advanced rapidly in tho
march against adverse circumstances, and,
uuder the guardianship of her present ener
getic and accomplished Mayor and Board
of Aldermen, is fast shaking off the dilapi
dated habiliments in which she was left by j
the failing fortunes and disastrous effects of
war.
On tho first of March last there was
scarcely a thoroughfare iu any kind of de
cent condition, hardly a sidewalk that was
not broken ; but few causeways which did
not need repair, and very few drains, small
and largo, that wero not lamentably out of
order and grass grown.
In looking over tho city at that time, wo
could not begot in ourselves the belief that
even with the greatest possible facilities and
the most untiring energy, any man, or set
ol men, could, in so short a time, work such
a change as has been wrought. But three
months and a fraction lias elapsed, and
what is tho result? Why, it is really as
tonishing. The drains on East, South and
West Boundary have been cleared of the
rubbish which had accumulated in them,
and are now in perfect order, while the
street drain? are in a commendable cleanly
condition. Porsons may now perambulate
tho streets without having their ankles al
most dislocated every ten or twenty paces,
and may dismiss any and all fears they may
have hitherto entertained of falling into
ditches, through broken bridges, in dark
localities, for the bridges have been rebuilt,
and where darkness once ruled, light has
been introduced. With limited means, the
ever vigilant Chairman of the Committee
on Streets and Drains, Mr. Meyer, has ac
complished wonders, in the way of bringing
out of a quasi chaos beauteous order. What
ever may bo said of those good men in whose
hands the Government of Augusta has, from
time to time, fallen, it can never be denied
tliat she has, at present, a chief magistrate,
whose superior is not numbered among bis
predecessors, and a Council which may
have been and may not be equalled, but not
excelled in administrative ability.
It is, indeed, gratifying to note the im
provements making in our city just at this
time. In the First Ward there are quite a
number of residences and business houses
in process of erection. The same is true of
the Second, Third and Fourth Wards,
while in each and all houses are being made
to assume the air of new oues, under the
painter's brush or the carpenter's tools.
On the outskirts of the city, we notice
that freedmen are engaged in building little
shanties—such as arc very undesirable, and
which, it is hoped, will, ere long, bo super
seded by larger and more tasteful buildings.
In a word, Augusta is fast being recon
structed. Now and then a shadow comes
over tho prospects of her citizens, but, like
wise men and women, they are not so much
discouraged as to grow lethargic. Onward
is the watchword, and onward they go.
Our merchants are preparing for a heavy
Fall trade. Stores are being rc fitted and
re-stocked, so that all will be in readiness to
cater successfully to tho wants of country
merchants and people.
Serenade. —A number of our colored
citizens, as a testimonial of respect lor his
kindness and impartiality to them, gave
His Honor, the Mayor, a serenade recently.
On Friday ovening last, they complimented
us with one, for which wc return our sin
cere thanks, and assure them that we high
ly appreciate the compliment.
We are gratified at these little attentions,
more particularly as they servo to show tho
good feeling which exists between the white
and colored people of our city.
During the “hot term,” persons of a
full habit who walk much arc inclined to
chafe. This can bo cured or prevented by
the use, once or twice a day, at retiring and
rising, of a solution of common alum in
water. The alum may be dissolved in either
warm or cold water, but shonld be used
cold, applied with a soft linen or cotton
cloth to the parts affected. Tho propor
tions aro a lump of alum large as a walnut
to half a pint of water. If too strong,
where the flesh is excoriated, weaken with
cold water.
American Ari*ibAK.—Our New York
ootempurary, wo aro pleased to see, not only
understands all about machinery generally,
but knows something about the machinery
of wit also. His joke on tho post-mis
tresses must have been post-prandial. But
let her bo, Mr. Artisan; Miss Finch will
not only give mail facilities to the male and
female portion of her neighbors, but she
Will take some interest in both of our
papers. The Artisan says:
Southern Post Mistresses.—At tho
end of a favorable criticism on the Ameri
can Artisan (?ec page 103), the intelligent
editor of the Augusta (CSa.) Daisy Press—
one of tho most generally interesting of
our Southern “exchanges”—rceeutly alluded
to the increase of postal conveniences for
regularly obtaining the Artisan and other
indispensable newspapers from the North ;
and, as an appropriate appendix to his re
marks, he published the following para
graph :
“Miss Sarah Finch has been appointed
post-mistross ut Beiair, Ga. She was duly
‘sworn in’ a few days ago; and hence the
business men of that neighborhood will
soon bo enabled to enjoy their usual mail
facilities.”
Tho editor did not state whether the
ladies of Beiair will enjoy tho “mail facili
ties” of the businss? men, or whether female
facilities of any kind will bo increased by
the appointment of Miss Finch to the posi
tion of post mistress—the “post of honor;”
but this desirable information is probably
postponed to a future issue of the above
named journal. In *he meantime the post
mistress. in her official capacity, will of
course labor to extend the circulation of
both tho P>ess and the Artisan , in return
for the renown conferred upon her by the
two first-rate notices which half a million
of rcadors have now perused.
Southern School Hooks. — We stated
a few days ago that the Professors of the
University of Virginia were preparing a
series of school text books for Southern
schools and colleges, and which would bo
better adapted to this section of the Union
than tho sectional and sectarian books
which come from the North. Since the
publication of that article, wo have re
ceived a circular and catalogue of the books
thus in course of preparation from Messrs.
Richardson »fc Cos., Publishers, New York.
We regret that they were not published iu
the South ; but wc can overlook that fact if
they arc of the proper quality and charac
ter. We append a list of them here for
general information :
SOUIIRUN SCHOOL readers, etc.
The Southern Pictorial Primer, or First
Reader.
The Southern Elementary Speller.
The Southern Pictorial Second Reader.
Tho Southern Pictorial Third Reader.
The Southern Pictorial Fourth Reader.
The Southern Fifth Reader.

A Chronological History of tho United
States of North America.

II. —Series of Higher Text Ilooks in Mathe
matics.
Algebra.
Legendre’s Geometry.
Analytic Geometry, 2 parts.
Other books will be added after awhile.
These will do very well, as far as they go,
but others arc needed in the other branches
of education, and it is to be hoped will not
be forgotten.
It is really gratifying to observe that our
people are not wholly lost to the interests of
this section of the Union, and that some of
them, at least, are going to work in tho
light direction. Success to them, say we.
A Huge practical joke, which will
last a year, was lately played at Buffalo’
N. Y. Tho Republican Major being absent,
the Democratic Council elected a Mayor
pro tern, which latter gentleman withdrew
all the Mayor’s appointments, and made
new ones from the Democratic ranks. The
Council confirmed all the appointments, and
the Mayor pro tern confirmed the proceed
ings of Council.
A farmer writes as follows to a dis
tinguished scientific agriculturist, to whom
he felt under obligations for introducing a
new variety of wine :
“ Respected Sir.—l went to the fair at
A , yesterday. I found several pigs of
your species. There was a great variety of
calves, and I was astonished at not seeing
you there.”
Doesn’t some liberal-minded Augus
ta landlord wish to hand his name down to
posterity in an honorable connection ? If
he does, let him fix his rent at a reasona
ble rate in currency, and wo shall aid him
to tho extent of our largo circulation in
carrying out his laudable desire.
Spare moments are like the gold dust
of time. Os all tho portions of our life
spare moments aro tho most fruitful in good
or evil. They are tho gaps through which
temptations find the easiest access to the
garden of the soul.
Lunch. — Our attentive friends, the
proprietors of the Augusta Hotel, sent us a
most bountiful lunch yesterday morning, to
which ample justice was done. It was a
sample of what they have to eat at the
Hotel, and if every body could see it, the
Augusta would have to be enlarged. That’s
all.
Mysterious Affair. —A couple of
men were seen to take a box or trunk out
of the river yesterday noon, put it iu a bateau
and go down the river with it. The police
immediately started in pursuit of them, as
there is reason to believe that the box or
trunk contained a quantity of valuables.
Burglary.— The store of Mr. Mac
murphy, in Van Winkle Range, Jackson
street, was entered and robbed on Friday
I night last.
Affecting Story.—On a cold, atotyby
night, lately) twb representatives of the
press were struggling homeward through
the storm with closo-biittoncd coats, and
“ hearts of controversy,” dismissing things
wise and otherwise, when tboir steps wero
arrested by a feeble cry from their side of
“ Please, sir, only a few cents.” Looking
down at bis side the man of ink saw a little
wretch, whose ragged garments afforded but
little protection from tho pitiless storm,
shivering along tho pavement and looking
up to him with wo-begone oountenance.
The whole story was photographed in an in
stant on ih • quick imagination of the “mem
ber of the press.” Tho drunken father, the
sick mother, and the little starving child en
deavoring to beg a few pennies to carry to
his miserable home. Hastily putting his
hand into his pocket—scantily lined, as usual
with the profession—ho thrust something
into the little palm, which closed eagerly on
it and disappeared with owner into the
darkness. With a warmer heart he turned
to his companion and commenced :
*• Count that day lost whose low declining
sun”—
when ho was interrupted by a sharp, child
ish treble, which pierced tho fog and night
like a knife; “ S-a-a-y ! Jimmie! derned
if I aint steuck a flat: less go’n get erstew.”
Magistrate s Court.— Council man
J. K. Evans, sitting as a Justice of the
Peace, yesterday morning, heard an appli
cation for a peace warrant, by Mrs. Fergu
son against her husband, A. B. Ferguson,
and granted it, binding the defendant over
to the City Court, in tho sum of SI,OOO.
Judge W. Milo 01 in for applicant; Judge
Win. It. McLaws for defendant.
County Court—Hareas Corpus.—
At the instance of Tbos. D. Felder, Esq.,
Attorney for the applicant, a writ of habeas
corpus was yesterday served on the Jailor
of Richmond County, for tho person of
Stephen C. Royal, confined in Jail on tho
charge of larceny and tresspass. He was
brought before the County Court, and ad
mitted to bail in the sum of S2OO.
Anti-Rent Troubles.— A dispatch
from Albany of tho 18th says : The anti
rent troubles have broken out again in a se
rious stiapo in this county, and the Sheriff,
in attempting to execute a legal process, was
roughly handled, and his Deputies beaten
and driven off by a body of men. One hun
dred soldiers will start with the Sheriff to
morrow to enforce the law.—[ Exchange.
How much better to establish rents at a
reasonable rate, than by extortion to bring
about such uubappy results as the above.
On Monday a splendid chance will
be offered, by Day, Russell & Benjamin, to
housekeepers and all others who desiro
anything to eat, drink, wear or embellish.
After the usual sale outside, “Charlie” will

great bargains in Dry Goods, Notions,
