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.” County Court. —The proceedings yesterday sum up as follows: State vs. Paul Jenkins, larceny from the house ; verdict of guitty. Reilly for State ; W. Milo Olin and J. Phinizy, Jr., for Defendant. State vs. Thomas Dugas, Jr., access ary before tbe fact; simple larceny ; plea of guilty.

Recorder's Court. —There were only two cases before the Recorder at the morning session. The parties were charged with a violation of the eighteenth section. Defendants were dismissed on payment of the costs of Court. As “the sun went down behind the Western hills,” etc., two full-grown youths of the Fenian persuasion were brought before Judge Robertson for act ing in a disorderly manner. They paid the costs of the Court and hastened homeward. The regular session of the Court will be held to day. Crying Charlie will be heard this morning, both inside and outside of store, aud the crowds in attendance will be gratified at the handsome display there to be made.

Groceries, Etc. —Blair, Smith & Cos. advertise a very fine lot of groce. ries this morning, to which we invite the attention of those interested. 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. To Rent.— A store is advertised for rent iu this morning’s issue.

RCPORTID BPICIALLT FOR THR DAILY PRRBS fc Office Daily press, ( Augusta, Ga., August 10, 1866.) 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. COMMERCIAL.
