When near the' Kaolin Works, the party was halted by a man on horseback, whom the gentleman took to be the leader of a band of robbers. With this view of the matter, he bade his son drive on, and in the meantime, sought to clear the way with the assist ance of a double-barrelled gun, which attempted to be discharged, fortunately for him at whom it was aimed, hung firr. Discovering that their chief was about to be fired upon by the man in the wagon, the men who accompanied the former opened upon the latter from right and left. Doubly assured in his own mind that the intent was to kill or rob him, his son, and his servant, the countryman laid whip to his horse, in order to escape injury. Where so many were firing, this was an impossibility. The countryman received a painluh though not a very serious wound in his right leg, besides having his clothing badly cut up by the balls. His son and the negro were uninjured. It appears that the man. on horse back, who ordered the party to halt, was but discharging the duty of a patrol guard, now perambulating that District for the purpose of arresting such as violate the lajvs and disturb the public peace. The Market men were not advised of the existence of any such patrol guard, consequently did not halt. The patrol, in halting the party, should have given his reason therefor. This may have been done for aught we know, but in the midst of the excitement, they may not have heard the explanation. Hence the shooting and the results thereof. We trust that mistakes of this kind will not again occur, particularly when attended with such evil conse quences. The Mountain Signal,.—The Moun tain Signal, a weekly paper, published at Dablonega, Ga., every Saturday morning, comes to us in anew dress. The Signal is a sprightly paper, and its present appearance is decidedly creditable. The Signal presents an excellent means to our merchants of communi cating with the people in the Mountain District of Georgia, and it seems that persons interested in the ownership ot “gold lands’ - in that region—becoming more and more noteworthy—should sub scribe to the paper referred to, inas much as it contains items of local raining interest. An advertisement of the Signal appears elsewhere, which see. Correction.—ln a paragraph in yes terday’s Press, we stated that Mr. Isaac Levy was the agent at this point (or the Columbia, Charlotte and Raleigh line of Rail Roads. It should have been Mr. Lewis Levy. However, Mr. Isaac Levy is the agent for the Atlantic, Seaboard and Roanoke route, via Wilmington, N. C. On this route baggage is checked clear through to New York, and sleeping cars, finished in the handsomest manner, 'on the entire line. This, undoubtedly, is the cheapest, best, and most expedi tious route for travellers to take now. Call on Mr. Isaac Levy, at the stereos Levy & Jacobs, and all information ne cessary can be obtained. Death of Mn. Sen lighter.—We re gret to hear of the death, in New York, of Professor August S. Schlichter, late of the Wesleyan Female College, of this city. Mr. S. was Professor of Music in the Institute, and participated in the exercises of the late commencement) when he left on a trip for the benefit of his health. He died on the Bth inst., of pulmonary consumption. Macon atiz(n. County Court. —The following cases were disposed of in the County Court room, yesterday: Three negroes were arraigned on the charge of simple larceny. One was charged with having stolen a kuife. He was discharged. A second one for stealing a goose, was committed to jail to await trial. And the third one, for stealing corn, shared a like-fate. Still Renovating. —Yesterday, wo chanced to pop in on the ladies’ favor ite Store, the Fancy Bazaar, and were surprised to see so many ladies there. Mr. Buehler is pushing his improvements on, and his store now looks quite at traptive. Barrett & Carter. —This old and well kiiown Drug establishment address es itself to our readers in an advertise} ment in to-day’s Daily Press. They have a well selected stock of everything usually kept in a first class drug store; and dealers and others will do well to give them a call. BRAN, Etc. An Old House—But New Goods. —ln a recent perambulation we stepped into the store of our friend, Mr. A. Stevens, who is one of the oldest estab lished merchants in the City of Augusta. Ilis house was opened in the year 1838, and he has continued it, without a partner, ever since. Ho has a large stock of groceries and provisions, and particu larly of bacon. We hope that his success in business will always be commensurate with his merits. An advertisement in another column will introduce our readers more particu larly to Mr. Stevens" establishment, which we take particular pleasure in commending to public patronage. He does not wish us to say anything about a very nice liquid present he sent us yesterday, therefore we have concluded not to. The Opera in Richmond, Va.—The Giiioxi and Srsixi Troupe to Retubx. This excellent company may be expected in Richmond about the first of October. Mr. Max Strakosch announces that he will open the season in Baltimore on September the 18th, and from thence will travel South. The company consists of Mine. Gliioni and Mile. Canissa, Mijie, Patti Strakosch, Signori Irfre and Errani, Signor Marra, and Signori Su sini and Coietti. The chorus will con sist of twenty-five well-trained voices, and the orchestra will be complete in all respects. Some engagements for new artists are yet pending in Europe, and will he announced shortly. Particulir attention wjll be given to tbe production of “Fra Diavolo,” “Crispino e la Co mare,” and “L’Africaine,” which latter work will be given with all the accesso ries of ship, true, new wardrobe, etc.— Richmond (Fa.l Dispatch. We hope that the troupe will not slight our city on its passage Sogth, The flattering reception which it met with here last Winter ought to be suffi cient inducement for another visit the approaching season. Since writing the above we learn tha* the agent of the Opera Troupe is in our city, making arrangements for the ap pearance here early in the season. The indications are that there will be no lack of amusements when the season fairly opens. Kunkel’s Nightingale Minstrels have already left Richmond, Va., for a Southern tour, which the Dispatch, of that city, says they will extend probably as far as Savannah, Ga., and cn passant of course, Augusta, Ga. “Music hath charms,"’ and musical entertain ments are generally very popular with our community. City Court.—Yesterday was sen tence day in the City Court. Mr. Lemon, for having committed an assault and battery, was sentenced to pay a fine of SIOO. Mr. Stegall, for a like, though less aggravated, offence, was sentenced to pay a fine of S3O. Two negro boys, convicted of larceny from the house, w eye sentenced, one to three and the other to five months in the chain gang. The Court then adjourned. Citrate of Magnesia.—Messrs. Bar rett & Carter have favored us with a few bottles of this agreeable beverage. If ail medicines were as pleasant as this, drug stores would become popular places. Accompanying the bottles was a note, saying that the contents were to be taken like the advertisement, according to directions, and expressing a hope, which we reciprocate- New Advertisements. —We call at tention to the following new advertise ments which appear in this morning’s Press : ; C.

For Sale by County Agricultural and Mechan ical Associations. —Some time ago, we suggested the organization of Asso ciation3 of this character in the coun ties of Georgia. We believe that ranch good can be accomplished by them, and we urge now, as we did then, the sub ject upon the consideration of our read ers. We are pleased to observe our brethren of tbe Chronicle <jk Sentinel advocating this proposition, and be tween us we hope to be abls to create sufficient interest in the subject to give it a tangible shape. Farmers and Me chanics of Richmond County, inaugu rate the movement, and your example will soon be followed by the o*her coun ties in the State. AUGUSTA PRICES CURRENT. REPORTED SPECIALLY FOR THE DAILY PRESS. Office Daily Press, t AmfUKt*, fiSo, August 30, 1866.) REMARKS. When we last had tbe pleasure of informing you of the state of affairs in this city, business seemed to have reawakened to a slight degree, but during the past week it has dfopj»ed off to its former letliurgy. The country merchants have, for the most part, remained at home, hindered from travel ling by the receut heavy rains ami consequent bad condition of the roads. Many of the business men of Augusta are absent, in the North, preparing for the now fast approaching Fall trade. Hut, despite the dullness of trade, in a commercial point of view, the march of renovation goes steadily on, and the stores begin one by. one to look livelier, to throw off the rust of old paint, and come out revivi tied with ueV. For the major part of this week we have been blessed with heavy and copious showers of rain, which, although almost too late, it is hoped may yet benefit to some degree the prospeetd df ti crop, and deeming farther preface unnecessary, we proceed to make a lew remarks on the leading articles of trade in the Augusta Market. It should be borne in mind that our quo tations represent wholesale prices. Small bills , to Planters and others , are fitted at a shade hiyher rates. FINANCIA-L. The demand for Gold and Silver since our last has been but nominal. Our report closed on Gold buying 1.46 and selling 1.48; Silver buying 1.88 and selling 1.43. These prices have remained* steady, with but a slight variation, and iliat a ten dency to decline. The receipts of news on Tuesday, per the cable, of the ratification of peace between Austria and Prussia, has had a tendency still farther to depress the market, and at the hour when we close our Review, being governed by the latest New York dispatches, we show a decline in Gold in this city on iast week’s Report of viz.; Gold, buying 146 Gold, selling 147 Va Silver, buying 137 Silver, selling 140 Fxchange on New York stands at par. Georgia Rail Road Bonds par and interest. Hut little doing either in Stocks, Bonds or Uncurrent Notes during the week, nnd we have therefore no important change to make in our quotations. The table on the next page has been carefully corrected, and we call your attention to it. PROVISIONS.

IRON. —hair supply with moderate demand, at the figures on next page. COTTON. At the date of our last Report [the market clbAetf on a quiet and drooping market, 27®29c. covering the ground. During the past week the market, as a general thing, has been quint, with a tendency to. reduction of prices. Oir Saturday and Monday Cotton waa a little firmer, a better feeling seeming to pervade the market, butpricos-remained steady.. On Tuesday, owing pbrhaps to (he rain' the market was dull, notwithstanding the news of peace being ratified. Yesterday the market was very dull and drooping; but few transactions werfe made. Tele graphic advices fropi New-. York and( to-day show a decline and increased dullness there, and we close our Report on a dull and depressed market, at the following rates, the BUYER FAYING THE tan, viz.: a 27 a Strict Middling ...28 a .. Good Middling 2H a We extract the following from the Cotton Circular of W. C. Watts & Cos., dated Liverpool, August 10: The sales of the up 51.650 bales, ot which 29,360 were taken by the trade, 20.570 declared for export, and 1,750 on speculation, included in the sales were 16,090 American, of which only 390 were on speculation, and the balance for consumption. Imports were 51 326 bales, of which 21,202 were American. The stock now slands.at 893..000 bales, a decrease of 3,830 on last week, against 272,740 last year, au inorense of 524,700. Counting the Chino piculs as half bales, the Cotton now at sea for Great Britain sums up 6*23,00rf bales (an increase of 4.500 on last week), against 506,000 last year, an ’increase of 117.000, which added to the in crease in stock, makes the total apparent ex cess, as-compared with last year, 641,760. The total apparent supply, here and at sea, now adds up 1,521,590 bates, or 670 more Allan shown by our last report. Referring particularly to American Cotton, it will be seen from our tables that the present stock is 362,340 bales, w hich is 362,340 bales less than last week; the quantity at sea has also decreased from 30 000 to 23,000, showing a total reduction during the week iu the apparent supply of 13,190 bales. Referring again to the business of the past week, it will be seen that the actual exports were large, say 25,849 bales, against an average George T. of 14.552 for the last six weeks. The purchases by the trade were, however, very small, say 20,910 bales against an average of 50 846 for the last six weeks, and 46 250 per week since Ist January last. The limited trade demand is muinly'due to the continued high rat*' of di.+ count, which operates seriously against ship ments of goods to distant markets. There saeniH also to be a very general opinion among Itlie trade that fcho condition of the money maiket will force holders of Cotton to supply the demand freely at current rates, ana by purchasing only to supply immediate wants they cati force down prices. *1 here seems to be no doubt but there is a large number of orders for goods only awaiting a reduction iu the bank rate to be given out, and thus create a very active business at Manchester, and a large trade demand here for the raw material. We should here add. that whilst trade at Man chester the past week was quiet, and prices in •pme instances weaker, there is no accumula tion of stock and no apparent pressure to sell. Advices from Bombay report small ship ments, say 16,000 to 20,000 bales in July, against an average of about 124,000 per month the pre ceding six months. The sowing season had not commenced on the 7th ultimo, and it was generally supposed the low prices current here would check production. From Egypt we have favorable accounts of the growing crop. From New York we have telegrams to the 6th inst., quoting Middling Uplands at 35>£c. and Gold at 147%. COMMERCIAL.
