K A Suggestion to the Firemen.— ■ The ladies are complaining that they ■brill be unable to witness the contest of 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. I The Recorder’s Court. —ln this ■Court yesterday, a double-barrelled 18th ■Section case was investigated, and ■both parties fined $5 each; a fair ■offender, who had imbibed the spirit ■ and “broke up things,” also paid $5 ■worth of greenbacks ; and an old col* ■ored woman, for disorderly conduct, had ■an opportunity of contributing a similar ■Lmount to the support of the jPity Gov ■ernment. A few other cases were con ■tinued. ■ Physical. —The Local of the Coniti who has just recovered from attack of chill and fever, says in that of yesterday morning, that he was fixing himself for a quiet en- of the late publications, when was disturbed by a canine bark in the Perhaps that was what our brother across the way. and bark are both good for the —combined, they ought to be a ■Are cure—better, in fact, than anything ■Perhaps that is not a very good joke, ■t it’s the best we have this moruing, Hfijfd must be taken for what it is worth. ■A Joku.—“Snigglcfritz” was in com with a fashionable young lady a evenings since, who enquired of “What kind of flower do you pre ■ Mr. Sniggle fritz ?” Excelsior Family, Miss,” rather practical reply of Sniggle who happens to be a domestic man, ■ba better judge of the useful than of :;H&eautiful.

EDAtors. —Certain persons who en Butlerizing machinery, etc., ) hull of the steamer Amazon, f«w miles below this City, had esist, or they will come to grief- 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. River News. —Height of the river— four feet six inches. The Hard Times and Express arriv ed from, and the Eclipse left for, Savan nah, yesterday. 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. HOTEL ARRIVALS. GLOBE HOTEL. W. C.

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. Rev. Edward X. Fuller says : I have witnessed the beneficial effects of yonr Pain Killer in cases of dysentery and cholera morbus, within a sow months past, and would cheerfully recommend its use to suoh as may be suffering from similar dis eases, at a raft and effectual remedy. Rev. A. Webster, Editor of the Chrietian Era, writes: I hare used your Pain Killer for many years in my family with much satisfaction. oc2B—2m GLAZING.
