HA Suggestion. —The City Council Hpently saw fit to prescribe certain reci- Hitior. hours for the Houghton Institute, hours for the morning session of school were fixed at from half-past H[ht to half past twelve o'clock, and K>se of the afternoon session from Hp to five o’clock. Against the hours for the morning session no ob- Hkion can be raised, but it does appear Hi that the afternoon session is too ■g, by one hour. We have heard a Hpdly number of people complaining Brain st the length of the afternoon ses- Hn, and we therefore respectfully sug- Hat to our City Fathers, who meet to Hw, the propriety of so amending the Hpolution referred to in the outset, that Hi prescribed hours may be from two ■four P. M., or from half past two to Hlf-past four P. M., instead of from two as is now the case. PrxHfc-The worthy Chairman of the . • K»d Wells Committ.'i; of the Bhcil "has had all of the city pu-r- a dark-brown color, and •a--/,- ,jpd. The coloring will preserve ■vis* fprps from the unfavorable action : Breather, and thus save much ex- Bb the city. IW Humber on the pumps will ■nerve a good purpose. When Hjpf them gets out of order, all that Kfcitizens in the neighborhood will - Hy to do will be to notify the Suparin ■Unt of Water Works, Pumps, and ■SU, the Chairman of the Pumps and H)* Committee, the Chief of Police, or of Council, that pump such a : flHpher, is out of order and needs re ■rs. The Superintendent aforesaid, Hiring a list, will know at o.ice which Hb it is, and thus attend to it without unnecessary delay. It is a good and the Chairman of the Commit- Hte, Mr. Gargati, who is a practical deserves credit for his suggestion on the subject, and his prompt in the premises. BJPersonal. —Wo had the pleasure, of meeting with Prof. P. H. Hjwnr, formerly General Principal of Uarton Academy, Mobile, Ala. T. has lately devoted a great deal time to the preparation of a series works, designed for use ■ Academies, Common Schools, and in the United States. Distin- Professors and Teachers unite ■ pronouncing his Algebra to be far to any now in use. Towne has favored tis with a Hi>py of bis Arithmetic, which we have as carefully as our limited would admit. Our judgment is, “it contains nothing crude, un- Htnishcd, or untried.” and is admirably ■adapted to the course of instruction ■ggually pursued in commofi schools. B Aside from being the production of a ■gentleman who enjoys a high reputation ■as a teacher of Mathematics, tho series ■have the additional merit of being Bfdited and published South. B Lack.—A rare specimen of beautiful ■fend historical lace is now on exhibition New York. This lace, which is ■bight hundred years old, and was once ■worn by the Empress Josephine, belongs ■to a long forgotten art. It is worth the of any lady to call and see this und she will be an envied woman becomes possessed of it. It only ■of those laces which were made in the for the uses of the church as ■ altar cloths, etc., by the enthusiasts of Ip the tenth century. One flower alone ■ sometimes consumed a whole year in its ■ design and construction, and the whole ■ piece frequently passed through a dozen K hands, and over a long period of years, ■ before completion. Biver News.—The Eclipse arrived ■ from Savauuah yesterday. Greeley on Davis.— The New York Tribune, of Monday last, in alluding editorially to the case of Jefferson Davis, said: “ There is a conglom eration of ehuffie, sham, shirk, and sneak, in the treatment of this prisoner, which is calculated to nauseate the civilized world, and for which somebody will yet be "held to a stern respon.d bility. Every manly instinct demands that Davis should be promptly tried; if be is not to be tried, or is only to be subjected to a costly and mis chievous sham trial, with no ex pectation or desire of convicting him, he should be liberated at once. And, if he is to be tried only for treason, then the charge of assassination should be re tracted as publicly as it was m ide. And it is the duty of Executive, through bis Attorney-General, to act promptly and frankly in the premises, so as to relieve the Goverument from the imputation of calumniating ai| enemy and holding for eighteen months a prisoner whom it dare not put on trial. The American people are being disgraced by the acts of their rulers, and they must insist on a speedy change." The Opera. Concert Hall was crowded by a brilliant and appreciative audience last night, to witness Belli ni’s Graud Opera of Norma, which was rendered in most excellent style. Madame Ghioni and M’lle Cauissa were new friends on the occasion, and all of the artists acquitted themselves credit ably aud satisfactorily. The audience were well pleased, and evinced their satisfaction by frequent applause. This evening the comic opera C»is pena e la Comare will be presented, and seats should be secured early. It is highly spoken of by critics, aud will be given in good style. Editorial Call. —We were much pleased to meet in our sanctum, last evening, Mr. Henry S. Hill, editor and proprietor of the Warrenton (Ga.) Clipper. Mr. Hill will call on our merchants to-day for the purpose of receiving their favors In the way of advertisements for his paper. Busi ness men will find the Clipper to be an excellent medium for communi cating with the country people. Greenbacks not a Legal Tender.— In the Circuit Court of Baltimore, on Saturday, Judge Alexander decided the act of Congress, making greenbacks a legal tender unconstitutional aud void, an assumption of power not granted by the States to their agents, the Geueral Government, and the court in argument puts the important query—can Congress convert paper into gold and silver. An appeal from the decision will be taken.— Petersburg Express, Oct. 3 rd. The Hamburg Raii.road. —They are working vigorously upon the Columbia end of this Hoad. It is to cross the Congaree River below the city, and to cross the Charleston Railroad a mile below its depot, and pass over and unite with the Charlotte Roud between its depot and the Junction, about midway. It is hoped, says the Yorkville En quirer, that next' May Day will see the Road in operation ; but we presume n good deal depends upon the state of the country.— Columbia South Caro linian. Dum, Day. —Yesterday was an ex ceedingly dull day in the local line. Nothing done in the Recorder's Court— all bustle iri.the County Court, prepar ing for the duties of next week. No lighting, no robberies. Everybody seemed busied with their own affairs— particularly those whose ill-luck it has been to move this season. Left. —The LaG range Reporter, of September 28th, says a lot of freedmen left there the previous day for Tennessee. There was nearly a car load of them. They go to seek employment and higher wages. The Reporter thinks that many more will go between this and spring, inusmuch as food and labor cannot be found for a large number of them there. They are all advised to go. A Chip off thb Old Block.— The major’s son, Harry, is the youngest, but not the only son of his “ illustrious sire." Harry is fond of music, especially the Sabbath School song—“ I am wretched poor, and needy,” and often says to his aunt, “ sing I’m wretched, poor, and needy—shall I fly?” for me. The other day his aunt told him to ask his father if he was not proud of his son. Harry, recollecting his brother Jimmy, said, “ father, ain’t you proud of me ?” County Counx.—The October term of the County Court will be held at the office of Judge McLaws, basement of the City Hall, on Monday next. The Grand Jury will assemble in the room formerly occupied by the Sheriff. The civil docket will betoken np on Monday, and the criminal docket on Tuesday. CoMixo In —Cotton from the neigh boring Carolina Districts, is beginning to come into our market quite rapidly, and in large quantity. We noticed quite a number of wagons in town yesterday laden with the staple. Something Nice.—Just to hand, and will be admired, the Empress shoe, an entirely new pattern, of Philadelphia manufacture, Ims been received by M. Cohen. Enuf ced ! City Sheriff's, Sale.—lsaac Levy, City Sheriff, announces a sale at the Lower Market House, on the first Tues day in November next. City Council Meeting.—The City Fathers should bear in mind that their regular monthly meeting takes place at nine o’clock thi3 morning. —Hon. George E. Pugh, of Ohio, has joined the Catholic Church, and lion. Mr. Pendleton, of the same Stale, is preparing to do so. B>*eakixo Choss. —You gain nothiug by a harsh word. What if that boy broke the pitcher, or pot his elbow through the glass; do you mend either by applying hnrsli words aud epithets to him ? Does it make him more careful in future? Docs he love you better? Hark I he is murmuring. What says the boy ? “I am glad of it; I don’t care how much I break.’’ He talks thus to bo even with his master It is very wrong in him, we know, but it is human nature, and the example has boen set before him by you. Say to the careless boy, “I am sorry; you must be more careful in future," and what will be his reply ? “It was an accident, aud I will be more careful." He will uover break another pitcher or glass if he can help it, and he will respect and love you a thousand times more than when you flew into a rage and swore vengeance on his head. Remember this ye who get angry and rave at a trit’e. Thanks. —We thunk our city cotem poraries for their kindly notices of The Daily Press. Good wishes are always gratifying to us, aud thankfully re ceived.

OFFIC* DAILY PMM, , . * Augusta, Ga., October 4,1866.) REMARKS. At the date of our last weekly review of the market, trade had began in earnest to set in, and during the week now terminating, business has oontinued to improve; more life Is manifested in every branch of mercantile pursuits, and tbe country merchants and wagons have commenced their usual fall trade with the City. Nor do our merchants lack the wherewithal to meet the de mands, now daily increasing on them; but, as the columns of our City papers will show, are ready with heavy slocks to fill every order, at as low rotes as could be reasonably expected*. The first of October was one of an unusual num ber of changes, and the day was all bustle and activity, caused both by business and changing of base. In our synopsis of the aspect of affairs, os presented, we have but a limited number of alter ations iu prices to report. VOS* It should be borne in mind that our quo tations represent wholesale prices. Small bills , to Planters and others , are filled at a shade higher rates. jri^AjsrciA.TLi. Money is very scarce, and commands readily 1H @2 per cent, a month, although we have heard of transactions in paper at even higher rates. The demand for all classes of Securities, for Bonds and Bank Bills, continue limited, and there is but little change iu the quotations for Bank Bills, etc. Since our last, Specie has decidedly advanced, owing to the united demands of renters, and the advance in New York. We close on the following quotations, which are Broker’s rates, viz.: Gold, buying 146 Gold, gelling 150 Silver, buying 135 Silver, selling 140 Exchange on New York par and % int. PROVISIONS. BACON.—There has been a good Inquiry, but the market is quiet and the stock fhlly adequate to the demand. Stock heavy; prices firm, at former figures. BUTTER AND CHEESE.—The demand for the former is fair, Goshen at 50Cs*55c. A moderate inquiry for Western and Country, at firm figures given before. The inquiry for Cheese is increasing, and we quote State at 20@25c., and English Dairy at 27@30c. FLOUR. —Stock on hand heavy, and demand good; a choice article will bring the full figures given on next page. The'various Mills of this City are still busily engaged in grinding, and turn out large quantities of Hour. The principal trade has been in this kind of Flour. Prices firm, at figures on next page. SUGAR.-—Supply ample, with a fair inquiry; prices stiff, and unchanged. LARD. —Fair stock, demand moderate; prices firm. We quote Prime Leaf, in barrels, 23@24c.; in kegs, 25&26c.; Pressed 22©23c. POTATOES. —The supply of both Irish and Sw«et Potatoes has been much increased; the former brings ss@s 50 per bbl., the latter $2 per bush. .There is an excellent demand. a-RA-iisr. CORN—Is quiet and firm. The market here is behind all other cities. Northern and Western; for while Com has had a decided advance there, prices here are very little, if any, changed; but at the same time, there are unmistakable indications of any advancing tendency. Prices range: Prime White $1 55; White 31 50; Prime Yellow (scarce) $1 45; Yellow $1 40; Western Mixed 81 30@1 35. OATS.—-Continue to be much asked for; fair stock, with au advance on former quotations. We quote 85(ai90c. HAY. —Moderate supply, and a good inquiry at full prices. WHE AT.—The stock on hand is nearly exhausted, and there is but little coming into market. We quote an udvancc, viz.: $2 50@3 per bush. SUNDRIES. DRY GOOD*.—The trade for the past week has been unusuully active, and a great many heavy transactions have transpired. Prices remain steady, at figures given. DOMESTIC'S. —As the season has opened, the demand for these goods have greatly increased, and we note a rise in prices. See quotations. BAGGING.—Demand but moderate, and ample supply. We note a decline in Gunny of lc. ► DRIED APPLES. —By an accident the quotation is placed at $3 per bush , instead of $1 50(5,2 50. COTTON". Our last report closed on quiet but firm market. The market for the week ending to-day has been, with but one exception, an active one. Ou Satur day, the 29th ult., a telegram received from Liver pool announced a decline of *£d. in that City on the 24th. Influenced by this, the market became slightly depressed, and a few bales changed hands at lower figures. in the day, the telegraph announced the decline as erroneous. The receipts and sales this week have been much heavier than before. The total stock of Cotton in Augusta on the 2d day of October was 7,278 bales. The total receipts from the Ist September, to date, are 2,914 bales. The sales for the same time sum up 5,045 bales. We close our report on a quiet and unsettled market, there being a mutual stand-off between buyers and sellers, at the following nominal price*, internal Revenue tax Paii>, viz.: Ordinary a Low Middling 34 a 35 Middling 36 a 37 Strict Middling 89 a Good Middling 40 a THE LATEST. Augusta, Ga., October 4, 1866. GOLD—Buying, 1 4S ; Selling, 1.50. SlLVEß—Buying, 1.38; Selling, 1.40. COTTON—The market continues flat; but very few sales transpired. Tho receipt of the unfavorable news of a decline of 2 cents in New York, and a goneral scarce ness of money, will account for the sudden dearth of trade. Receipts continue heavy, and prices remain, nominally, the same as above. COMMERCIAL. APPLES— Green kus * a £ CO Drv ~.,.fcuah . 3 'J a BAGGING— Gunny yl.
