BY CIURI.I|BgJ. rfENKIXS. <*WV*RXOR OF
f'^a®K»&sp
Milledgeville, 12th Nov., 1866. j
The General Assembly of the State of
Georgia, now in session, have, as their
first complete act of legislation, unani
knowledge their dependence upon the
Supreme Ruler of the Universe, to he
mindful of His providence, to return
thanks for His mercies and tjlessi.ngs, to
confess their sibs, and w iarjkirttine Hfs
favor, therefore;
Resolved by the General Assembly of
the State of Georgia, That His Excel
lency, the Governor, issue his Proclama
7tio*V; i feipart Thursday, the 22d
ft dfljr of fasting, Immfliation,
and prayer, requesting the same to be
so observed by the people of this State.
Now, therefore, I, Charles J. Jenkins,
Governor of said State, by this, my
proclamation, call upon the whole peo
ple of Georgia, male aTTd female, ofd
and young, clergy and laity, to give
earnest heed to this solemn invocation
of their Law Givers.'
On the day appointed, let the ordinary
vocations of life be suspended—let
places of business and- of pleasure be
closed—let tbe temples of the living God
be opened—let all the people surround
the altars which they are wont to wor
ship; and tbe Priests lead their hearts
And minds in pious humiliation; re
pentance, thanksgiving and applica
tion. There is* cause for all. Ceremo
nious observances deceive man, but
“Gon is not mocked.” Let there be
heart and soul in the services oi the day.
Let the poor and the destitute be re
membered io our prayers—aud iul the
year following, let him that hath, prove
his sincerity by the largeness of his
alms.
For sinning, not against Pharoah, but

Jorty-yfafS |n 'the .In the
Wilderness are we now, Fellow-citizens.
Our Corn and our Oil have failed of
their abundance—our flocks and our
herds are diminished. The cry of want
is heard in our land—the manna and the
quails come not yet. But the throne of
God is a Meucy-Seat. If sought aright,
He will grant us deliverance and pleuty.
Chaki.es J. Jenkins,
Governor of Georgia.
Georgia Cupper. —Mr. H. S. Hill,
one of the proprietors of this excellent
country joujyitjil, will wajj upon our.
merchants and others to-day, to obtain
.their advertisements for his paper. The
Clipper is published in a section of the
State which trades largely with Augusta,
and has a large circulation, which ren
ders it an excellent medium for our
merchants to advertise in. We, there
fore, cheerfully commend it to the atten
tion of our citizens, and Mr. Hill to
their liberal patronage. They will find
it to tjheir advantage to use his adver
tising columns liberally.
Large Reward. —The Louisville and
Nashville Railroad Company offer a
reward of SIO,OQO for the arrest and
cofiriction of the parties who robbed the
passenger and mail train on the Bth
inst., near Franklin, Kentucky. Active
measures are on foot to apprehend the
perpetrators of this daring outrage, and
the large reward offered by the Railroad
company offer strong inducements to
increased exertions and vigilance, and
we trust thufiliu villains may be quickly
cabgUt anff made an example of that
will prevent a recurrence of such out
rages. It is a disgraae to our Stale that
bands of armed desperadoes .should be
allowed to go at large, waylaying trains
endangering the life and limbs of peace
able citizens, and robbing' and plunder
ing them without mercy. This is a
matter that interests every citizeu of
our State, ■ but more especially those
living along the line of the Railroad, and
we hope that no means will be left un
tried to bring to justice these enemies to
the welfare and safety of the public.
Rev. William M. Crdmley.—We
’sre pleased to learn, as We do from the
Savnnnah Advertiser of the 15th inst.,
that this reverend gentleman has par
tially recovered fromhjs late severe ill

he tpay fpJly regain his wonted health.
Execution of the Mukdkkeh of the
Lamented J. R. Crew of Atlanta.—
The Atlanta fiiioUigeneet, of the 16th,
says it has been ascertained, beyond
question, that the negro “Bill,” referred
Ufiti paragraph below, • perpetrated
the awful crime, and though he was
executed for another offense, it is grati
fjmgftti knbw-tffct! the ends o('justice be
thus subserved, and that Heaven has
directed that the great wrong done to an
innocent man has bddrf Avenged. We
copy this paragraph from the Macon
Telegraph-; _ septencq of death
was- executed upoif the negro Bllf, the
murderer of Mrs. Rollins, at Irwinton,
in the presence of au im

that he made a full confession of the
horrid crime, together with a life da
voted to murder 1 a fid rtlbfcerjrl The
Atlanta ticket agent fell at his hands,
and numbers were sent unprepared to

AUGUSTA WEEKLY MARKET.

OFFICE DAILY PRESS, t
Augusta, Ga.. Nov. 15,1866.)
REMARKS.
The trade of this City has been very fair during
the week; country buyers have come forward and
invested as freely as could be expected, considering
the scarcity of money. There is a disposition
shown among the country merchants to purchase
their jrinter stocks The iperchants of this
Cntf-are *r«l prepared t> meet all demands that
ißay be liade upon tham.
Bacon has experienced a great decline; Grain
and Salt are looking up. The most of the week’s
trade has been in Provisions. We have been care
ful In compiling these Prices Current of the City of
Augusta, to base our quotations on actual transac
tions, and, therefore, without farther prelude, we
invite your attention to the following synopsis of
the leading articles of trade.
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.
ITIN'A.N'CIA.Xj.
The cloq4& that hover over the financial horizon
show no signs of breaking. The decline in Cotton,
both in Liverpool and New York, has more or less
influenced the Money market, which still remains
in a degree stringent; and Paper (unless it be
strictly first class), is difficult of negotiation.
New York Sight Exchange is checked by the
Bunks uM>ar. Out door rales Kto % per cent, dis
count. Thirty D*y Bills are mken at 1 per cent,
and interest; Silty Day Bill*, 2 per cent, and in
terest. Specie, lik£: Cotton; |as also met with a
decline, and we quote tjte following brokers’ rates:
Gold, buying 1 46
Gold, selling 1 49
Silver, buying 1 40
Silver, selling 1 45
But little is done in Uncurrent Bank Notes, and
quotations remain about the same. For a full
table of reference, see next pa,ge..
IP ROVISI OT>TS.
BACON.—The stock of this article in market has
increased considerably since last week, but prices
favor buyers, and are not firm. Advices, both
from Philadelphia and Savannah, show the market
to be in the same state. There has been but little
done in Bacon, except in small lots, and we give
the following quotations as the ruling wholesale
sales: Shoulders 18X<^19c.; B. B. Sides, 21®
21Xc.; C. R. Sides, Clear Sides, 22J4®
23c. Hams have not met with any quotable differ
ence since our last report.
BUTTER— Remains firm and unchanged; stock
moderate, and good demand.
CHEESE—Is more frequently inquired for, and
ttockshave improved; prices continue firm.
FLOUR — l The stock of Western Flour on sale
continues so limited as to make quotations nomi
nal. A strict good article is very scarce in
the market, while the demand therefor is excellent.
One of the City Mills has reduced the price of its
lower grades, but all others retain the same figures
as last week.
SUGAR AND MOLASSES.—The former is firm
and steady; prices unaltered, but looking up.
There is a good demand; stocks fair. A piine
article of Molasses does not remain long irt first
bands.
IjAßD—Firm atflgure^oblast Week. The stock
is ample and requests fair. /
POTATOES— I The supply of both Irish and Sweet
Potatoes is daily increasing, and prices are easier.
There is but slow sale for Irish, at 3 50@$4 00 per
barrel.
GRAIN.
CORN—Has not materially altered In prices,
though on account of the limited and decreasing
stock, figures are stiff, with a decided advancing
tendency. A prime article of White Corn brings
«1 85; Western White, H 75@1 83; Yellow, il 70;
Western Mixed, $1 70.
OATS AND HAY. —The supply of both is limited
and demand good Oats have again advanced,
and we now quote them firm at $125. Hay
is stiff, at $2 25 for Northern, and $2 50 for
Eastern.
WHEAT—Is almost a nonentity as far as being
an article of trade. It is often inquired for, and a
choice article would bring higher figures than those
quoted.
SUNDRIES.
DRY GOODS—The demand for all classes of
winter goods has been fair, and pricels remain at
about the same quotations.
DRIED FUUIT.-r-Stpek more than adequate to
the demand; prices eleady. We quote: Apples,
$1 75@2 00, and Peaches, $3 50®500.
STARCH.—Good supply aud fair inquiry. Prices
range: Pure, 13@14c. per lb.; Silver Gloss,
15®16c.
DOMESTICS.—The Angusta Factory have re
duced the prices of their goods since last week.
7-8 Sheeting brings 18*c.; 4-4 Shirting. 21c.;
7-8 Drills, ‘22%. Other mills are unchanged. The
demand is increasing, and the Factory is busy
endeavoring to fill orders.
BAGGING—is dull. The inquiry is only mode
rate and prices steady. Heavy lots may be pur
chased at a trifle lower than figures given.
- SAL?3»2rhe stock is limited, with an active de
mand, and price* haye greatly advanced- We
-quqtc Uverpool at 52 9O@SOO aud advancing.

In concluding our remarks on the state of the
market, we will dwell for a few moments on the
statistics of the great staple of trade during the

IfVom Bryce & Co.’s Cotton Circular, dated New.
York, Nov. 9, we extract the following :
The weather for the past week has been aTI ;
that could be desired by planters, and picking
lias been pushed forward most vigorously in
those quarters whore frost has not appeared.
Estimates of the crop have rathet increased .
than diminished, and more two million esti
mates are made than one and a half million.
We r 6lill iqdino to the PpU>ipn that 1.730^)00 1
buicrwill be Aboafc .the fljjufie.- By jthe close of i
the year it will be possible to form a pretty
correct estimate of tne probable total amount *
to be received; indeed, many person* think ;
that a very large percentage of the entire crop !
will be at the ports by the Ist of January, 1807.
This theory is probable, if we considor-the
urgent necessities of a majority of tfieplanters,
ana the anxietv they manifest to git their crop
to market. The receipts for the week: hrfe'less
ttidn eJtpec.tcd, falling below bales, and
by the telegraphic reports at hand those of ■
next week will be no larger. The new Tre^a-'
ury regulations, permitting shipments in bond,
have been of considerable assistance fclaiit- j
ers ;4itla fevfeh : akj it is { delayed to
sorfitf exieftt by The requirement* of the gov
ernment officials. The Egyptian icrop is this
year turning out finely, and thd quality of
Egyptian Cotton now being landea in Liver
pool is superior to any Cotton eter yet laid
down in that Port. These Cottons are con
trolled in price by that of but
in turn our medium Boa Islands are con
trolled in price by Egyptian. There 4b but
little chance, wo- think, of Egypt, ever jnnch .
increasing her supply of Cotton, as the land
devoted t-o its production is just ao much de
tracted from the acreage planted jin wheat, of
which Egypt is now raising none too much.
From Brazil wa may look for an increased
crop, byp,from India we thihk there will be
a diminution; for, granting that the amount
sown is thp .dnm€,4flM tl» Bpa*on latoHdfclV/
the financial panic of last summer will still
hang so heavily on the commercial-community
