RUSSELL, G.\ C.-. G.-. J. E. NAVY, G. . S.-, Hotel Registers.—We have seen a specimen of some hotel registers reoetif -. ly issued from the Daily Press Job Office, which is decidedly unique in its way. Oil the margin of each page are neatly displayed cards of thirty of our business houses—which will meet the eye of hundreds of persons daily, throughout the year. The books are splendidly printed, and will be credita ble to the hotels, as well as to the estab Bailment from which they are issued. Fire Arms.—A freedinan who was “fooling” with a shot gun, down the River, yesterday, accidentally discharged the piece, tbe contents tearing off a finger that chanced to be over the muzzle at tbe time. It was a painful illustration “Os the perils whieh environ Those who triße with cold iron.” New York Papers.—P. Quinn, of the News Depot, offers to deliver any New York daily, to regular subscribers in the city, on very favorable terms. Quinn’3 has become an institution in the world of news and current literature. Excise and ftbamboat.— Messrs. Beall & Hankinson offer a twenty-horse power engine, in good order; also, a small steamboat, on favorable terms. Corn and Oats.—Those extensive and reliable dealers, C. A. Williams & Cos., have a large lot of corn and oats to arrive, which they are offering, low. Dancing.—Prof. Strawinski has re opened his Dancing Academy, at Ma sonic Hull. He hi endorsed by all liis patrons as a thorough and efficient teacher and a polite and worthy gentle man. Trunks, Shoes, Etc.—M, Cohen ha* a variety ol trunks, valises, and carpet bags; also, boots and shoes for all ages and conditions of people—all at low prices. Receipts or Cotton.—'Tbe Charles ton Courier gives the receipts ol Cotton nt all the ports, to latest dates. 788,024 bales, against 951,569 Bam e time last year. ifest ly the Oliitfd Buttes authorities in the education of the colored people of the South is very proper and com megrim bie. Indeed, having mad* Ui*m •ftm, mw4'deprived omAf the pwtec tion and support of their masters, it if iooiMuiient oa the Government to B*4 every possible means of preparing them to support themselves. Education ameliorating tfceir condition, and prev paring tlicm for tM boom of citizenship, so suddenly coulerred. Therefore we l-nim,.»ml Iby ftiiivernment Ur the educaiio# port of the “nation's wards.” While so much is being done for the blacks of the South, it worth! be Bpasonable to expect that the Government would at least throw no obstacles in the way of tb4 education of the whiles; and we havn been surprised that the most conimsdi ous school building in the city—the Richmond Academy—has been so long otfrirpted by troops. The government buildings around the city certainly afford ample accommoda tions for the small garrison here, aud it is difficult to conceive of any good rea son for tAp continued ppejupfjicy of the Academy grounds top barracks. It is true that the necessities of the tvar caused the appropriation pf the Academy for hospital purposes. That was a ques tion of humanity. Indeed,: during the war many of our. schools were sus pended, and there Was no special need of tho Academy for educational pur poses. We learn that there are teachers anxious to secure it now and earmsitly hope that it may be restored to the trustees, and speedily opened as an edu cational institution. Not Hiring.—We learn that the planters of the vicinity are experienc ing great difficulty in obtaining lyjnds for the next year. The rtesuhs of, the last year were so unfavorable that fneed men are not disposed to work for a share in the crop, and the tempting wages of sered by the agents of Western planters, have induced large numbers to leave the State. We wish the freedmen well —and blame no man for making any change which betters his condition ; but it is very questionable whether their dreams of prosperity in the West will be realized. The advice of Gen. Howard, on this point, is very sound ami timely, and should be brought to the attention of every freedman who lias the Western fever. Gen. Howard is the Cbiel of the Bureau, and has no interest save to pro mote what he believvs to be the welfare of the freed people. A New Humorous Work.—We learn from a,circular recently received, that Mr. Wm.E.T>oyle,"tlie spicy Police Court Reporter, and Town Trifler of the Louisville Courier, is about to issue a humorous volume, to bejeptitled• “Til tereena,” and containing ail the current jokegof the prevailing fashions, Tilters, Waterfalls, Rats, Mice, etc., etc., etc., together with a Comic Almanac, and several funny sketches. From. Mr. Divle’s well-known huinor and literary talent, we anticipate a capital book in the humorous line. It will be issued early in the present month. Largest Circulation.—For some time pa3t we have kept the notice stand ing at the head of oor columns that we hud “the largest city chrculation." We did this in no boastful spirit, but in simple justice to the paper—knowing that the advertising public would natu rally enough think the circulation bf the old papers mightexcel that of the Daily Press, in the first year of its existence. The recent contest for the Postoffice Printing, which required a sworn state ment of the City circulation, has vindi csited the truth of oor deckiraiion. This printing, though unimportant in itself, is a standing evidence, to the business public— wji ich canntl be yainsf/id —that the paper containing it has tho most readers, and is, therefore, thd best medium for advertising. The Daily Press is emphatically the people’s paper, and being at half the price of the other pafidrs. it is useful to everybody. Its circulation is rapidly extending in the country also. The truth is, anybody can afford to pay $5 for a daily D%per, and thousands will do it, v.-ho would not take a daily at double the price. s' Reviving.—There are glimmering evidences of improving trade during the last few days, in spite of the decline in cotton. The weather has been favora -1?1b, the road* are improving,and wagons are again to be seen on the Streets. The receipts of cotton . continue! quite light, and opinion ip general that over half the receipts at this,point have come to market. Recorder's Court.—There was but one case disposed of in this jCourt yes terday. A French gentlemoi! drove his horse and cart over a grass plat, and was fined $1 and costs. He offered to compromise on 60 cents, but the Re cdfrtet Avas inffxrtrabld, knd he settled up and left. Several other cases were con tinued. Matters in Ireland.^— A Dublin correspondent, writing on the 19th of December, represents the city and king dom of Ireland gtamMlly »s ifill seriously excited by the Fenians. It is alleged that tibo agents oT Stephens have under mined Dublin to a very great extent, by working from the banka,of the river Liffey, and that the revolutionists pro pose to blow up the Castle and either kill or carry off the Lord Lieutenant. AUGUSTA HABKETi ' Friday, Jan- 11—-P. M. COTTON—The market has been dull, with a declining tend-ncy. Prices were nominal—324 to fH for Strictito Qood Middling. GOLD—DuII and unchanged—3s| to 85. SlLVfiH—There wee. little demand, the nominal prloes being 28 to 32—th* former buying, and the latter' selling ratee by bMkers. What Radical Congressmen Said AT NAEJRTIr,L»—Tfcn reception »t Nash ville was nothing lew than au ovation. A dinner was given in the evening that called together in the large dining.room of the hotel the representative men of tli® eta awt ujay of tjjp Jadiea. The , largbi 4iui#g ball of the lintel was crowded to; its utmost, and in responses Ao* lowt given \tf (botoael ijirkniifojfol! tide eity, hoping for a TeßtoraHion oCifoa* Union and its glories, Vice President Foster said that if the reception of this evening were au assurance of what they should get elsewhere, the pectations of their hosts would be realized. Senator Wade, when called to his feet, stated ttytt it„was jus intention at the- coannenCemenl DHiko f a epeeTh,-**.! thowgb ko-lelt eftufpUateiOsd by tbe reception, and should adhere to the resolution, he must confess to a most agreeable surprise at the cordiality of the reception. Senator Ramsay, on being called for, expressed his gratification at the unex. pected kindness received at the hands of the citizens of Nashville, and hoped for a speedy settlement of all difficulties. . His remarks Were wafmly received. 1 Senator Lane, in reply to the call for him, stated that civil war had passed, and passed forever. The people of the North and South should unite, as did their sires,iwhose resources were from the same ever-springing fountain. His recollection of this reception should always haunt the greenest spot of mem ory's waste. Ex-Governor Brown, of Tennessee, in reply, stated that he heartily shared the sentiments expressed, and did not desire to discuss the ethics of the recent con troversy dfebided ‘by at-ms ‘ hot 'he ! thanked God for peace. He rejoiced to see the representatives of the National Legislature. The same banner now doated over our heads. s *Vffiatevel ouT r differences, the feeing most predorai naht amoilg Southern people was'- to have the Union restored. ~His speech was all through enthusiastically up. plauded. General Howard and Representatives Lafin, Thomas, and Kerr made'speeches of a similar character, and were most happy in their efforts, uud greeted with great applause. Du. M. Bernhardt Remains One Days Longer.—ln consequence of the great number of applications for relief, and at the earnest request of many of our prominent citizens, Dr. Bernhardt has consented to remain in (he City until this afternoon, at three o’clock. Persons suffering from defective vision should call at once at his office, Plant ers’ Hotel. He is able to give relief to nearly all diseases of the eye, and to strengthen and restore the sight of those who are partially blind. His glasses are warmly recommended by profes sional men, and bv all who have used them, as the best adapted to remedy defective vision that have ever been manufactured. The ciiizens of Au gusta may not have another chance for years of obtaining the best quality of glasses. f Giifts For CHRISTMASMEW YEARS. GREAT WATCH SALEI ' 7 " •.* ON TIIE POPULAR ONE PRICE PLAN !
