Accidental Ikscrancc.—Between
Kenosha and Milwaukee an agent of the
Travelers’ Insurance Company, of Hart
ford, Conn,, (B. H. Brodnax, agent for
Augusta, Gn„) entered the car, and,
having issued tickets to several passen
gers, approached an elderly lady, who, it
afterward appeared, was deaf.
“Madam, would you like to insure
against accidents ?” inquired the agent,
at the same time exhibiting his tickets.
“I got my ticket down to Kenosha.”
“Not a rail road ticket, madam; I
want to know if yon would like to insure
your life against accident.”
“I’m going to Oshkosh to visit my
darter, who’s married up there, and has
j ust got a baby.”
The agent raised his voice a little.
“Would you like to iußure your life
against accidents ?”
“She’s been married two years and a
half, aud that’s the first child; it’s a
gal.”
Agent, still louder—
“l am an insurance agent, madam ;
don’t you want to insure your life against
accident ?”
“She’s got along first-rate, and is doing
as well as could be expected.”
Agent, at the top of his voice—
“l’m an insurance agent, madam;
can't I insure your life against acci*
dent ?”
“O, I didn’t understand yon,” said the
old lady. “No, her name is Johnson ;
my name is Evans, and I live five miles
from Kenosha.”

Musical Meetings —A Suggestion,
—We observe that, in gome of tbe
music stores iu New York and Boston,
the practice es having weekly musical
re-unions has been adopted. The mu
sicians of the city, generally, meet at
the piano warerooms of the establish
ment, once a week, and give a concert,
a few invited guests, admirers and pa
trons of music, being present. The
entertainments are very popular, aud
must be productive of some good. They
assist in establishing kindly and fra
ternal feelings between the artists; they
serve to make the public acquainted
with the performers ; they aid in culti
vating a correct musical taste ; and
much more that is good and useful.
Why should we not have something of
the kiud here, in Augusta? We have a
considerable amount of musical talent
in our midst, and it might thus be
brought out and benefitted, at the same
time that the public would have all the
advantages of the entertainment. What
say our friends, Schreiner and Oates ?
They could inaugurate the movement—
the re-unions to be held with each alter
nately ; and, we think, with interest to
themselves, also. Try it, gentlemen.
For Mayor.—The friends of Judge
Robertson will learn with regret that he
has declined to be a candidate for
Mayor of this city.

REMARKS.
When we last had the pleasure of reporting the
state of the Augusta Market to you, It had assumed
a slight degree of activity; but since that time
trade has bad a decided relapse, and the market
during tbe week has been an exceedingly dull one.
The Atlantic Telegraph Cable bears us tidings of
the state of affairs in Europe; by it we have
learned of the ceding of Venetia to Italy, and of
the demand of France for an extension of their
frontier from lYussia, and of the decided refusal of
the Prussian government so to do; and by it we
are infonned that the war will probably be renewed
between Bavaria and Prussia, on the territory of
the former. All this we hear on the very day of
ita occurrence in Europe.
Active preparations are being made for the Fall
and Winter trade; otherwise business is stagnant.
It fthould be borne in mind that our quo
tations represent wholesale prices. Small bills % to
Planters and others, are filled at a shade hiyher
rates.
financial.
The demand for Gold and Silver during the past
week has been very light; in fact, only nominal,
and prices have maintained an unusually steady
stand. Our quotations are given at the last hour
from late New York dispatches, and show an ad
vance of 2c on last weeks report:
Gold, buying I4g
Gold, selling iso
Silver, buying 13$
Silver, selling 14}
Exchange on New York stands at par. Georgia
Rail Road Bonds par and interest. But little doing
either in Stocks, Bonds ; or Tincurrent Notes during
the week, and we have therefore no change of
moment to make in our quotations, but the table
on the next page has been carefully corrected, and
we call your attention to it.
PRO VISIONS.
BACON.—-The market has been dull—a heavy
stock and light demand at lc. off from last week's
quotations. There is a great deal of unsnioked
Bacon on the market, known by the name of Cum
berland, which sells a little lower than smoked,
buyers generally smoke this Bacon themselves;
however,the regular staple kinds of Bacon stand at
the figures quoted, viz.: Western Shoulders 19@
20c. per lb.; Ribbed SidesWc.; Clear Sides
23(a23>£c.; Hams 25(5:270.; Country Hog Round
20@21c.
BUTTER.—A limited supply on sale; demand
good, prices vary: Goshen 45(5 55c.; Western 30(5)
35c.; Country 30@35c.
FLOUR.—At our last report the supply on hand
was light; it has since been filled up by heavy
arrivals, until the supply on hand is more than
adequate to the demand. Prices are a little easier,
but the market is dull at the figures in our price
list next page.
SUGAR.—Fair supply; inquiry good, at a slight
decline on the figures of last week. Sec quota
tions.
LARD. —Prices stiff; fair demand at 25®26X for
Prime Leaf, and for Pressed.
POTATOES. —The demand is better than the
supply. Irish range from $5 00$)6 00 per barrel.
No sweet potatoes, except in retail way, and these
command very high figures.
GRAIN:
CORN—The market has been quite dull. The
supply of choice Com is light; of other grades
heavier. There lias been hut little demand for
Corn this week, and prices are considerably off
from last week’s quotations. Prices range: Prime
White $1 G2X@l 67>$; Prime Yellow $1 45@1 50;
Western Mixed $1 40(<il 45.
OATS.—Prime demand, stock light. We quote
90c.(5;tl 00 per bush.
HAY. —Stock light, and fair inquiry; prices
steady at last week’s figures.
WHEAT.—Market steady, and a good demand at
$2 50@2 75, wholesale, according to grade.
SUNDRIES.
DRY GOODS.—The demand has been quite brisk,
and prices are steady. For full and correct
tions we refor to our new table, on the next page.
DOMESTICS. —Augusta Factory, continue brisk;
the demand is rapidly increasing, and will do so, as
the season advances. Trices unchanged.
P.AGGING.—'There has been an increased in
quiry, and another advance. We note Gunny at
30(5)41 c.
ROPE. —In consequence of the advance in Bag
ging, Rope too has been affected in the same man
ner. We quote Hemp 24(a26c.
COTTON.
Our Inst Report closed oft a depressed market,
27(5?32c. covering the whole ground. The week
now terminating has been such an exceedingly
dull one that it is almost impossible to give a re
port. Receipts, if any, have been extremely light.
The sales of the week will scarcely amount, to 300
bales. Money is now tighter than it has been for
some time, and both holders and buyers are mutu
ally standing off. Yesterday, however, the market
opened with a better feeling, but on account of dis
couraging news from New York, the market closed
dull, BUY KRB PAYING TIIK TAX, viz. :*
Middling 26 a 27
Strict Middling 27 a 28
Good Middling 29 a
The custom in this city is that the buyer shall in
all cases pay the tax on Cotton. As there is two
cents tax on some, and three cents on other Cotton
there will be found a variation in prices.
The following extracts are taken from tho
Weekly Cotton Circular of William Bryce &
Cos., dated New York, August 10, I860:
Since our last Circular we have received ad
vices from Liverpool by steamer Java to the
28th iust, one week later than the seven days
reviewed in our last Circular. An active de
mand had existed up to Thursday, which was
checked by the non-reduction of the Bank
Rate, which contrary to all expectations was
still maintained at 10 per cent. The business
of the week footed up the usual amount of
102 500 bales, of which the traue took 50,000
bales, exporters 33,000, and 13.000 went to
speculators. Os the entire sales 33,700 bales
were American, 21.000 of which went to the
trade; exporters showing a preference for the
lower priced Indian variety, taking 22,600 of
which against 7.830 of American. Egyptian
continued in active demand, and showed an
advance of another penny. The stock of this
Cotton continued to be reduced, and no arri
vals had occurred during the week. Sea
Islands had manifested some activity at last
rates, 750 bales being sold. Further advances
seemed certain on all extra stapled Cottons in
Liverpool, let the course of the shorter varie
ties be what it may.
Our own market for the week has been the
dullest experienced in some times prices have
receded more from the execution of orders to
sell than from any other cause. Our exporters
have not been buyers except at sacrificial
prices, as the plethora of Sterling Bills seems
rather to have augmented than diminished.
Spinners have been but paltry purchasers,
many of the large mills having received Cot
ton direct from tne South, others on contracts
made some time since. There was considera
ble pressure among some of our operators to
Sell during the week, and many stale devices
practiced to reduce quotations, to enable the
speculative originators of such devices to load
themselves at low rates. We think a rally from
the present depressed point almostoertain, tor
as many times as we have touched present
rates this year, just so many reactions have
occurred. We do not look for any great ad
vance in priceffor the stock is too heavy, aud
new crop too near; yet we are too low to en
able an > active demand to satisfy itself. Owing
to the insignificant operations which have oc
curred, we are mmole to note any especially
favorite grade; good staple, however, is more
considered thah grade. Sea Islands continue
in fur request at steady rates: Inferior, 40c.;
Low Middling, 60c.; Middling, 7(K§)75c.. while
high grades are very scarce, and without in
quiry; Extra stapled Cotton continues in fair
trade demand without any special movement
to note. i
The new tax of three cents on Cotton has
produced no effect here or in Liverpool, and
will produce none until the new crop comes
forward. Crop accounts continue favorable,
aud while Breadstuffs are generally a complete
failure the prospects of Cotton are superior to
what was anticipated a month since.
Two bales of new Cotton have been received,
one at Galveston and one at New Orleans; the
date of their inception is just one month
later than in 1860. The upward movement in
Gunny Cloth still continues, and 35c. is still the
asking rate from first hands. Hope is un
changed with a fair business doing.
