K A Suggestion to the Firemen.—
■ The ladies are complaining that they

Buie Engines on Friday next, if it takes
on Greene street, as announced. If
■t should take place on Broad street,
■however, they will have an opportunity
■pf enjoying the display, as the windows
the buildings on that thoroughfare
■will command a clear view of it, while
Greene street, in consequence of the
they will not. Os course, our fire
■ben are too gallant not to consult the
and convenience of the ladies in
respect; and will, therefore, it is
comply with the reasonable
to change the programme so far
Bl to have the playing on Broad street,
■bastead of Green street.

A Rich Editor. —An exchange says
the richest man in Georgia is an editor
of a paper in Augusta. He estimates
his property at seventy millions of dol
lars, as follows: He says his Wife is
worth $20,000,000, his baby $16,000,-
000, and bis wife says he is worth as
much as herself and the baby, both
together, which is $35,000,000, making
$70,000,000, Good luck for him, his
property is not taxable. If R was, the
“infernal revenue” would get a pile
out of that editor, in a horn.
Blobbs (jealously, no donbt) ob
serves that these valuations must have
been in the “ newish : ” —Confed cur
rency. He doesn’t know of hot one
editor in the City who would cone any
ways near the above description, and
that editor is not a joking man. It
must, therefore, be an error.
Personal.— We find the follbw'yig
notice in the Cincinnati Gazette of Oct,
24th:
Missionary Meeting in Session.—
Elder J. 8. Lamar, ot Augusta, Ga., will
deliver an address before the Missionary
Meeting, to-day, in the Christian Chapel,
on Sixth street, and W. K. Pendleton,
President of Bethany College, West
Va., in the evening at 7} P. M. :
On Cellar Doors. —Persons to whose
houses are attached cellars, opening
upon the public thoroughfare, are re
quired, by the City Ordinances, to shut
the doors thereof at sunset. A word to
the wise is sufficient.
Hats, Caps, Boots, Shoes, Gaiters,
Trunks, Valises, in profusion, enn be
purchased cheap at M. Cohen’s, 182}
Broad street, opposite Augusta Hotel.
Give him a call and yon will certainly
be pleased. t
Cotton. —A large number of wagons,
laden with that precious staple, Cotton,
came over from Edgefield District, yes
terday afternoon. These, together with
those that doubtless arrived from our
adjacent counties, will contribute large
ly to the enlivening of our streets to
day. Our merchants are liberal in
their purchases of country produce;
their country friends should be quite as
liberal with them.
Good for Mrs. McCoy.— We find
the following rich and racy advertise
ment in a Cincinnati paper of yesterday,
and re-produce it in the Courier without
charge to the fair Georgeaun. Corneal
had better keep quiet: —Louisville
( Ky.) Courier , Oct. 24 th.
NOTICE.
Mr. Editor : I observed in your issue
ot yesterday, a card signed Corneal S.
McCoy, warning all persons from trust
ing me on his account, as I had left his
bed and board without just cause or
provocation. I therefore take this meth
od of informing the public that he never
had a bed ; the board has always been
furnished by myself, and as to anybody
trusting me on his account, I know of
none who would trust himself. His
credit always has been below par, so
much so that he could not get trusted
for his own shirting, and now wears
some of my underclothing on hi3 back,
slightly altered.
Georgeann McCoy.
Daily Press Book and Job Print
ing Office. —This Office is now sup
plied with every material necessary for
the prompt, neat, and economical exe
cution of every style of Book and Job
Printing and Bookbinding. The par
ticular attention of the Public is re
quested to this establishment, in the
ssuranee that ample satisfaction will
be given as regards typography, press
work, and charges.
The office is located at 190 Broad
Street, or 153 Ellis Street.
The King Street Fire, Charles
ton. — The Courier estimates the total
loss of the fire on Kiug street, Charles
ton, noticed in our last issue, to be Hp
ward of one hundred thousand dollars.
The insurance amounts to about sixty
thousand dollars.
The fire commenced in the bar-room
attached to Mr. McLaughlin’s liquor
store-room. How it originated is not
known.
Internation»L Ocean Telegraph.
—Mr. Wm. H. Heiss, one of the oldest
telegraph superintendents in the coun
try, has accepted the important position
of Superintendent of the International
Ocean Telegraph Company.
Colonel Heiss is well known in Geor
gia, Florida, and South Carolina, as a
very enterprising and able man in the
Telegraph business.
He was formerly Telegraphic Super
intendent at this place, before and at
the commencement of the war. Colonel
Heiss was very courteous and accom
modating them.
Personal. —We were pleased to meet
on yesterday, our young friend, J. Fraser
Shecut, Esq., formerly ot this city, but
now a resident of Augusta, and the
Travelling agent and correspondent of
the Press of that city and *of Atlanta.
Mr. Shecut visits Charleston in the in
terests of the papers of those two flour
ishing cities of oil* sister State, and will
call upon our merchants to solicit ad
vertisements and subscriptions for them.
We cordially commend him to their
courtesies and patronage. —Charleston
Courier, Oct. 30.
Horrible Casualty. —Barny Barrett,
a youth about sixteen years of age, re
siding on Dr. Hix’s plantation, in Union
District, S. C., was instantly killed on
Tuesday, the 23d inst., whilst grinding
sugar. He was caught by the machinery.
Cats Eating Poultry. —When a cat
is seen to catch chickens, tie one around
her neck, and make her wear it for two
or three days. Fasten it securely, for
she will make incredible efforts to get
rid of it. Be firm for that time, and the
cat is cured—she will never again
desire to touch a bird. -This is what we
do to our own catß, and what we re
commend to our neighbors; and when
they try the experiment, they and their
pets are secure from approach and dan
ger henceforth. Try it.— Dement.
Tribute of Respect.
At a meeting of the Augusta Typo
graphical Union, held on Saturday, Oct
27th, the following Preamble and Reso
lutions were .unanimously adopted:
Whereas, Tbe All-wise and Mighty Ruler
of)the : -Universe baa removed from our circle
ouT muoh esteemed fellow-crafti inae,
Thomas J. Murphy, which sad dispensation
has filled our hearta with unaffected sorrow
and pain. Therefore, be it
Resolved, That, in the death of Thomas
J. Murphy, the Augusta Typographical
Union has lost s valuable and useful mem
ber, our community a bright and honorable
citizen, and the South (though a native of
Toronto, Canada), one of its bravestsoldiers
and most devoted defenders. Cheerful in
temperament, pleasant and affable in man
ners, generous in impulses, and at all times
governed by a high sense of honor, ho en
deared himself to his craft, and many
friends, who knew him.
Resolved, That, while bowing to our
severe loss with becoming resignation, we
Cannot bat wish him back again.
Resolved, That we tender to the bereaved
and sorrdw-stncken family the assuranoe of
oar heartfelt sympathy and sincerest con
dolence, in this, the saddest of earthly
affliction. ,/'*'v
Resolved, That these resolutions bespread
upon the minutes of this Union, and pub
lished in the Augusta, da., and Toronto,
Canada, papers, and that a oopy be sent
to the widow of the deceased.
Cotton Factory.— By an advertise
ment in this issue we see that a meeting
was held at Green's Cut yesterday for
the purpose of subscribing for stock in
a cotton factory. This is a step in tbe
right direction. If we wish to start any
new enterprise, and want money to do
it, we must put our hand in our pockets
and pay our money, and in due time the
percentage will return to us. He that
waits for the government to help him in
any new enterprise, will usually wait in
vain.— Waynesboro' (Ga.) Times, Oct.
27 th.
Important
New York Supreme Court, on the 25th
inst., before Judge Ingraham, were tried
three cases against the Bank of the
State Os South Carolina, located in
Charleston. The facts are of vital in
terest to owners of Southern bank bills,
which have hitherto been esteemed val
ueless. The plaintiffs, in the eases cited,
are owners ot bank notes, issued previ
ous to and during the late war, amount
ing to $53,000.
The defense set up that the bills were
void, having been issued by the bank
during and in support of the rebellion,
in violation of-pnblia policy. The Judge
overruled the defence, and gave a ver
dict for the plaintiffs in the full amount,
with interest.

Naughty Boys.— Tburlow Weed and
Horace Greeley are indulging in anoth
er quarrel. The latter calls the former
an “ old villain,” and says that “ lying
is an old trick” with him.
Horace is bully on a lie himself, and
ought to be a good judge. —Atlanta
New Era, Oct. 30.
Globe Hotel. —There is no sight
that pleases a weary traveller more than
to sit down to a nicely prepared meal,
or to take rest in a neat and comfortable
room. Such a condition of things may
always be found at the Globe Hotel, in
Augusta, Ga. This hotel deservedly re
ceives a large share of tbe public
patronage, and will continue to do so
under its present management.—
Waynesboro’ (Ga.) Times, Oct. '2.lth.
' A New Stove. —A new stove has just
been invented for the comfort of
travellers. It is to be put under the
feet, with a mustard plaster on the head,
which draws the heat through the whole
system.
The great humbug preacher, Henry
Ward Beecher, is plunging deeper and
deeper in the radical filth, and promises
to come out nastier than dear old Thad
deus himself. He has declared for the
mixture of races, and seems more de
lighted with himself than ever.
What shall we have next ?—Atlanta
New Era, Oct. 30.
“Do They Miss Mb at Home.”—A
writer at Crab Orchard Springs, Ken
tucky, gives the following: “Passing
the drawing room last evening, my at
tention was attracted to a rather cor
pulent young lady, visiting the springs
for her health. She was seated at the
piano and singing, ‘Do they miss me
at home.’ -I thought they must at meal
time.”
Go on with that Pretty Talk.—
“My dear Ellen,” said a young man, “I
have long tvfshed for this sweet oppor
tunity, but I hardly dare trust myself to
speak the deep emotions of my heart;
but I declare to you, my dear Ellen,
that I love you most tenderly, your
smiles would shed—would shed—”
“Never mind the wood-shed,” said
Ellen, “go on with your pretty talk.”
The Beast. —Do the moral and pious
paeplc of old Massachusetts, who intend
to vote Btuler into Congress, know that
he never drew a sober breath while com
manding at New Orleans ? It is a noto
rious lact that a greater sober drunkard
never walked the streets of that devoted
city. We hope the bottled hero will not
become excited and get on another “big
tight,” over this brief but truthful para
graph. In fact, he ought not to forget
that he is the only man on the Continent
who has won the immortality of shame.
With rings on his fingers and spoons on
his toes, he makes a hell-fired jingle
wherever he goes. —Atlanta Nero Era,
Oct 30.
Has Enough of It.—A late dispatch
says Gen. Sweeny, Fenian, is at his
home in Waterford, New York, with his
family. He has issued a card, in which
he wishes it understood that he resigned
the position of Secretary of War, and
declined the offer of the commander-in
chief of the army of Ireland. Being
therefore no longer connected with that
organization, he does not intend to take
any part at present in the proceedings of
the Brotherhood.

Opinions of the Press, Clergy, Etc.
We will make a few short extracts from
the many Testimonials we have received from
time to time , unsolicited.
from Editors.
The New York Examiner , says:
Every mother and housekeeper must often
act as a family physician in the many ill
nesses and accidents that occur among chil
dren and servants. For many of these cases,
I have used Davis* Pain Killer, and consider
it an indispensable article in the medicine
box'. In diarrhoea, it has been used and
effected cures. For cuts and bruises, it is
invaluable.
The Editor of the Christian Advocate ,
says:
It is a real pleasure to us to speak favorably
of this article, known almost universally to
be a good and safe remedy for burns and
other pains of tho body. It is valuable not
only for colds in the winter, but for various
summer complaints, and should bo in every
family.
A. D. Miller, Editor of Messenger, Glens
Falls, N. Y., says :
There is no medicine at the present day I
value so highly as Perry Davis* Vegetable
Pain Killer. I have used it in my family
for years; in every instance it has proved a
sovereign remedy. I tested its qualities
to-day on a severe burn, and found it all
that could be desired.
Mr. John Jackson, of the Calais Adver
tiser, writes :
I know it to be all it is recommended,
having used it in my family six or seven
years.
Tho Salem Observer sayS :
No article of medicine ever attained to
such unbounded popularity and extensive
diffusion. It has penetrated to every part,
even the most remote, of the known world,
bearing with it its healing influences more
potent than those of tho spices of “Araby
the blessed.** We are informed by our
principal druggists, that they sell more of
this article for exportation than of any or
all others, and that the demand is constanty
increasing.
The Cincinnati Nonpareil , Nov. 14, 1849,
says:
Seme of our most prominent citizens and
business men strongly recommend it to tho
public as an article of great merit and virtue,
and that they never knew any medicine to
become so deservedly popular in so short a
time.
From Clergymen.
Rev. J. C. Boomer says :
I have used Perry Davis’ Pain Killer with
great success in eases of cholera infantum,
common bowel oomplaint, bronohitas,
coughs, colds, otc., and would cheerfully
recommend it as a valuable family medicino.
Rev. J. G. Stoarns,, says:
I consider it the best remedy I ever knew
for dyspepsia.

in the improvement of onr premikes has
lately been achieved. It is our old stand

in conducting our business on the ONE
PRICE SYSTEM has proved a success
beyond our most sanguine expectations.

branch of commerce. The commercial year,
just opening, will find us well prepared to
meet the wants of our numerous customers.
Our goods are of the best quality
AND WILL BE

scarcity of money in our midst, combined
with the partial failure of tho principal
crops, will necessitate a rigid economy to be
ADOPTED BY
the majority of our citizens. Our varied
stock will enable them to make such selec
tions as are suitahio to their incomes. The
beautiful styles of our clothing are not only
proverbial mt home, hut also by travellers
passing here from
ALMOST EVERY STATE
who accord us the praise for cheapness and
the durability of our garments. We also
offer at the very lowest prices, Gentlemen’s
Furnishing Goods, Hat?, Yankee Notions,
either at wholesale or retail, as cheap as any
house
IN THE UNION.

LING.’’

ions. Clothing mado of the best materials.
