On the Bridge.— Previous to and
just at the commencement of th,e late
war, tbe offices of the toll gate keeper-of
the Augusta Bridge was noted, ini Rum
mer, as the Resort of crowds of young
men, who sought there the refreshing
breezes that were wafted from the river
and the neighboringTiills on the Caro
lina side; and in winter it was visited
by numbers of the same class, , as a
•place where, around the glowing fires—
the remembrance of which are as the
locality itself—they might recite, and
hear recited, wondrous ghost tales. Now
tbe crowds gather not; they have be&i
broken, and their members scattered
here and there by the vicissitudes of the
post five! ydars. Local items-r-once
easily picked up thereabouts—are very
unfrequeutly found in these latter days.
The present keeper is a clever “Ad
miral,” who spares no Paynes in the
discharge of his multifarious duties.
Since the passage of the ordinance re
quifing-foot passengers to pay toll, the
“Admiral” occasionally has to contend
with some who do not take the papers,
and are, therefore, unlearned in the
usages of to-day, and also with some of
the stubborn-minded, who think the
keeper has no right to make (to their
minds) such unrighteous exactions.
However, the toll is always forthcoming.
The troublous kind have lately been so
pestiferous that the presence of a chival
rous policeman is. found necessary to
the’ smooth flow of greenbacks into the
City Treasury.' Should the “Admiral”
and the officer aforesaid be, at any time,
by reason of the multitude of the re
fractory, found incompetent to the task
set before them, they will immediately
tall back upon the Hill, whose hands
will prove a help-meet.
Agency of the Southern Medical
and Surgical Journal. —We are grat
ified to annouF.ee that our old friend,
Major lßham Thompson, has consented
to act as Agent lor the Southern Medical
and Surgical Journal, and willcanvass
the City for subscriptions to that valua
ble Journal. The Major is so well and
favorably known to our citizens that he
needs nothing more than this simple
iatroduction to secure for him a hearty
welcome from all upon whom he may
call.
Genial, courteous and good humored,
he must make iriends, and add largely
to the subscription list of the Journal
An Interesting Case. —The other
City papers, a tew days ago, noticed
the arrest of Mr. Geo. W. Hancock, at
the instance of E. M. Bruce & Cos.,
under a„'chhr|e of obtaining money
under falsfe! pretences. It appears that
Mr. Hancock, who is planting in
Florida, went Ao E. F. Metcalfe & Co.i
ot. Savannfih, and on the representation
that he h-M 75 or 100 bales bf Sea
Island Cotton, obtained a draft ore E. M.
Bfnce & Cos., for some $3,000. After
cashing the draft, Messrs. Bruce & Cos.
received information that led them to
think all was not right, and at their
instance, Mr. Hancock was arrested
under the charge of obtaining poney
under false pretences. After an exami
nation before Justice Ker he was turned
over to the authorities of Savannah, and
was taken down in the / evg ody of
Officer Ring. Judge OH4 and J. C. C.
Black, Esq., 1 were employed in his de
fence. After a hearing before . Judge
Levi S. Russell, of Savannah, fit was
proven that he had the amount of Cot
ton represented, and he was discharged.
We learn from a gentleman who wit
nessed the examination, that the speech
of our young townsman, Mr. Black,
elicited the highest commendation from
the Savannah bar.

Shooting Excursion. —Quite a num
ber of gentlemen left this City yes
terday, fbP ! Barnwell District, South
Carolina, wither they have gone to engage
in a shooting match with an equal num
ber of South Carolinians. Some of them
are experienced shots, and our neigh
bors wiij have to look to their laurels on
this occasion-* ‘Thera will, no doubt, be
a pleasant time of it, and perhaps a
popping of something else besides gun
caps. At least it is reasonable to
think so.
A Commendable Idea. —We under
stand that as soon as its financial con
dition will admit, the St. James’ Sun.
day School contemplates having repub
lished and bound in a more substantial
form, the proceedings had, last Novem
ber, in commemoration of her gallant
dead. It is the further intent of the
School, that the new volume shall con
tain the photograph of each of the
twenty four noble young men whose
names appear upon the roll.
This is certainly a most commenda
ble idea, and we heartily wish for its
speedy consummation.
The Charleston Mercury'. —This
old standard journal has been re-estab
lished, and is now published by Messrs.
R. B. Rhett & Brother, assisted in the
editorial department by Mr. Dawson.
The Mercury takes back nothing of its
antecedents, but, like all of its sensible
cotemporaries, “accepts the situation” in
good laith, and will do battle now in the
cause of Southern progress and pros
perity. We extend to it a kindly greet
ing, and warm wishes for its success.
Scott’s Monthly Magazine. —This
excellent Southern periodical has closed
the first year of its publication. The
proprietor states that its progress during
that time has been satisfactory, though
not commensurate with his expecta
tions. It i3 to be hoped that for the
next year he will have no cause of com.
plaint in this respect. Arrangements
have been made for procuring portraits
of distinguished Confederates, wood
cuts, etc., and a handsome holiday num
ber (for January) promised by Christ
mas.
The December number contains a
number of interesting articles; and
among them one from the pen of our
gifted townsman, Salem Dutcher, Esq.
Send on your subscription for next
year—ss.o0—to J. J. Toon, Publisher,
Franklin Printing House, Atlanta, Ga.
Augusta to New York. —The trav
el ling public will find an advertisement
in another column, giving some particu
lars of the route from this City to New
York, of which Mr. Isaac Levy- is the

a day from this place, and the time is
fqrty-eight hours. From Weldon, North
Carolina, there is a choice of three
routes; and the fare is low.
Read the advertisement and get all
the particulars.
Family Sewing. —Miss L. J. Read
announces, in another column, that she
is prepared to do ail kinds cf stitching;
to make to order shirts, and children’s
and ladies’ clothing; also, awnings,
grain and flour sacks, made at the
shortest notice.
Miss Read is agent for Grover &
Baker’s Noiseless Sewing Machines.
This lady is energetic and expe
rienced- tin bnsiness; and deserves a
liberal patronage. We commend her

of Shoes. t
River News. —The river stands five
feet at the Bridge. No arrivals or ds
partures.
r An Unbiassed Opinion of as Dld
Fogy. —Some people fly into raptures
about a blackbird's whistled notes;
others talk sentimental humbug about
the lark’s wildly notPtj, or the
nightingale’s pleading notes; but my
opinion is. the only notes worth
udmiring are—bank notes.

-i « |
We make the following extracts from
Wm. Bryce A Co.'s New "fork Weekly?
Cotton Report, of the 16th instant: !
We have to chronicle another splendid
week for picking throughout the South*
and the long fine season this fall has mate
rially improved the quality of the crop
coming forward ; this may be more clearly
apprehended by observing that the differ
ence in the price of Low Middling and
Middling is now only lc. to He., instead of
2c., ag has been the. some, time past.
Concerting, puhlio estimates of the crop,
we have nolieed a strongly growing feeling
towards,hales atriott£ people who
are both conservative in theft viewi and
materially interested in the crop. We still
believe, however, that onr estimate of
1,800,000 bales is ample, and know that
the present depressed condition of dotton
comes from the -overstocked condition of
tbe market for the fabrics of Manchester
Add our hilllS, ralher than from fears of
excessive supply. To tbe year 1846-7 we
have once before called particular attention
as being a parallel of the present season,
viz. : An unfavorable Spring, a fino Sum
' mer,‘ a N , tempestuous September, and: long
fine pteking w€hther in October and No
vember; the crop that year amounted to
1,700,000 bales, a serious falling off from
the present year, and far less than the year
following. Our receipts thus far conform
most singularly to those of that year, and
yet even if tho crop were the same, such
receipts be larger, the necessities of
the planters being so much greater. We
consider this point as of the utmost impor
tance, for never in the history of Cotton
have the planters been in such need of
funds, and never have the rivers been
fuller-nor the roads in better running order.
Those persons who favor a 2,000,000 crop,
urge in support of their estimates that the.
restrictions of tho Treasury Department
and the lateness of the crop counterbalance
the above objections. While there is some
force to tho remarks, we ought not to forget
that the annoying regulations were re
scinded September 25th, and that the
present system affords little or no difficul
ties to the planter shipping his produce.
Again, granting the crop to be a late one,
Jhe season has now. sufficiently advanced to
show a marked increase in receipts, if the
crop were really so late, which circumstance
the receipts.do uot show. Last week they
fell below those of the week previous, and
this week full short of 60,000 bales,
which amount ought to bo received weekly
from November 3d to January Ist, 1867,
to make our reoeipts 750,000 bales to
that date, when fully one-half tho crop is,
expected to be at the ports.
The agent of the Freedmen’s Bureau of
tbe State of Mississippi reports that t e
crop of that State will barely pay the ex
penses incurred in its cultivation, and this
statement is sustained by the roports of pi.-
vate individuals. A similar though not
equal state of destruction pervades the c t
ton region, and the question wt i ttyo v a
jority of planters is not when he can get tue
most for his orop, but hoto soon it can be
conveited into money to meet his pressing
necessities. Bearing this in mind, and re
membering tbe faculties now afforded lor
transportation, we think to have a 2,000,000
crop, our receipts should be fully 100,000
bales per week at the present time. What
ever may be the size of the crop the currency
value will much depend on the preminm on
gold. A careful consideration of surround
ing circumstances leads us to the opinion
that there is no particular probability of
the premium falling below forty for some
time to come. We have been importing
heavily, and our exports have been light;
gold must go abroad to pay otir balances,
and very heavy remittances are always due
in December by our importing houses. Un
trammeled trade points to no lower
but some people fear the Secretary offcthe
Treasury wijl make some sudden rao ? € Lif’
ward a spefcdy contraction whfc>lF**w®BlcF*
influence gold; but those best acquainted
with the intentions of the Hon. Secretary
emphatically deny such statements, which
are likewise wholly opposed to the late ctjn
servative policy of the Department. How
ever maniacal Congress may be, it is not
presumable they will attempt to legislate
on. the gold question, remembering the
rout and ruin which has invariably fol
lowed every previous effort in that direction.
The dullness in Cotton Goods is much dis
cussed, but the position of that market, and
of trade generally, is not very different from
what is usually the Case immediately alter
elections and preceding the assembling of
Congress. A marked reaction next month
is not expected, and of course a consequent
improvement in the market for the raw
material.

AUGUSTA WEEKLY MARKET.
REPORTED SPECIALLY FOR THE DAILY PRESS.
OFFICE OATLY PRESP, )
Augusta, Ga., Nov. 21,1866.1
REMARKS.
The busy hum of trade continued tb sound
throughout our streets, from the close of our last
report to the end of the week; but the opening of
this week has not been marked by as much activity
as the preceding one. Business though can not be
said to he dull, for a fair trade is being done.
Provisions have suffered a severe tumble. Cotton,
after being quite dull, now begins to look Up. Salt
has advanced.
The merchants of this City are still ready to fill
all orders that may be sent, at as reasonable terms
(is can elsewhere be found.
Our Prices Current, of this City, have been care
fully compiled. We have endeavored in every case
to base our figures on actual transactions, and
would refey you to the table on next page for cor
rect quotations. We invite your attention to n few
cursory remarks on the leading articles of. trade:
It should be borne in mind that pur quo
tations represent wholesale prices. Small bills, to
Planters and others , are filled at a shade higher
rates.
The prospects, financially speaking, are still
quite dark; no ray of light nor hope fir better
times can be seen. The scarcity of money still con
tinues, and la even worse than at our last report.
The dullness of the Cotton market has had much to
do in causing the present stringency of money
Paper (unless It be strictly first-class), Is oxtrcmely
difficult of negotiation.
New York Sight Exchange is checked by the
Banks at par. /,ut door rates Xto A per cent, dis
count. Thirty Day TSllls are taken at 1 per cent
and interest; Sixty Day Bills, 2 per cent, and in
terest. Specie has suffered a heavy fall, and.
we quote the folloqlitg brokers’ rates:
Gold, buying .1 40
Gold, selling 1 45
Silver, buying 1 35
Silver, selling 1 40
